Manure—A Gold Mine on the Farm.
brach horse produces $27 worth of
mainwo a year (as compared v,ith
commercial fertilizers); each head of
cattle $20 worth; each hog $8 worth,
It is estimated that the total value of
manure produced le about $200,000,000
—a veritable gold mine.
AC least hall of this great wealth
of fertilizing material is sheer waste.
In some good general farming sec-
tions net more than fifteen per cent.
of the manure produced is used. Even
in the most intensive dairy regions,
where cows are largely stall fed and
comparatively great caro is taken
with the manure, the loss seems to
be approximately twenty-five' per Where the owner of the farm can not

"There are a good many fine things
about a milking machine. One of
them is that your hands don't get tired
mtel'kittg. The last cow milks as easy
as the first one."
That is my neighbor'•s way of sizing
up the milking machine. Ile was left
alone through the shifts and turns, of
the times and could not get help to do
his farnc work as it ought to be done.
The milking was especially tedious.
"I used to spend from an hour and
a half to two hours right on the milk-
ing stool. By the time I got through
I was tired and in poor shape to. begin
the real work of the day. Now I am
fresh and ready to go at other things
after breakfast. I milk my cows in
about half the time and they don't
mind it as muoh as they used to when
they were pulled and hauled around
by careless or indifferent milkers."
He spoke of at number of other good
features about the milking machine,
but this was the windup.
"You can't tell how long a mean will

three men last season at different

some things for the milking machine,
but it won't go back on me if I use

Another man told me of his ex-
perience with a milking machine as
follows:
"It used to take me just about two
hours to milk eightedit cows. That

In every flock of chicks and of fowls
there are individuals which can never
be profitable, and often are a menace.
They are weak and become an easy
prey to disease and pass that disease
on to others. Thera are also the mis-
shapen ones and those which have suf-
fered injury. These, with the known
non -producers, should be weeded out
early in the season.
• Every flock of youngsters should be
watched carefully and any that grow
slowly, show signs of weakness, do not
have good shape for their age, should
be disposed of as early as possible,
Those with twisted ,wings, deformed
basks, wry tails or crooked batiks
should likewise bo d'tasposed of, even
though they are healthyy,
If we except those evll�lolt are to be
kept for use or sale for breeders, all
surplus males shouid be disposed of
as early as they can be fattened and
a good market secured, It is care-
lessness in points such as this that
keeps the edales from turning from
failure to success.
•
A good dry cleaner consists of
equal parts of cornmeal and salt,
moistened well with turpentine.
Turnips, beets, carrots will keep
best at a temperature slightly above
freezing.

Protecting Our Furred Friends
New that the :deists are getting;
frosty, It is time to begin to think'
again of trapping. Even more fm-.
portant, however, is the proper pro -
taction of our fur -bearers until their
fur becomes prime and worth full
value.
You do not want to begin trapsing
during September or October, before
the pelts are No, 1 in quality, and\
thereby hose half or two-tiuirds of the
value of the fur; , when by waiting
they will be worth double price. •
Resolve not to trap until the fur
is prince, of No. 1 quality. With moat
furs this will be early in November,
When furs are prime, the flesh side
of the pelts will remain white, without
dark blue streaks, after the animal is
skinned. If the fieoh side turns blue
at any time, even after drying, the
fur is not yet prime, and will •grade
No. 2. If very blue, it may be a No.
3 or 4 pelt; and these last two classes
aro worth very little. Primeness of
:skins is judged entirely by this white
or blue color of the flesh side of the
skin. Whether the hair slips a trifle
or not is not considered so much, for
the condition of the skin otherwise
determines whether the hair will slip
or not. Of course, a skin may be per -
featly white, No. 1 in primeness, and
still grade No. 2 or 3 because of short-
ness of the fur, cuts in skin, etc.
Primeness of muskrat skins cannot
be judged by whiteness. A muskrat
never becomes fully prime and white
until about February. The skins
caught during the fall, if good qual-
ity, may be more oe less blue streak-
ed, and yet grade No. 1 fall. The same
is true with Winter -caught skins.
These No. 1 fall or winter skins do
not, of course, bring so much gs a
No. 1 spring -caught skin, but they
are nevertheless considered prime.
Muskrat skins vary a great deal dur-
ing the fall, however. You may catch
one skin that is quite white and will
grade No. 1, and get another at the
same place a week or so later that
will be quite blue and grade No. 2.
To be sure that they are gate prime
and will bring good valve, It is best
to wait until early November to trap.
Marten skins, also, are hard to
judge at certain times. In some places
in Canada they may be caught, being
perfectly prime, but if left out in the
trap during a hard rainstorm lasting
several,hours, the pelts are liable to
turn perfectly black.
Therefore, resolve not to start trap-
ping too early. See your neighbors
so that they will not start before you
do. Draw up a pledge fair to all, and
get them to sign it. Then if any
wandering early trapper tries to come
in and get furs before they are prime,
you can all post your land with "No
Trapping" signs and work Together to
prevent it, if anyone is A41,1,0111
about agreeing to wart, point out that
in the middle of October a geed mink
will grade, about No. 3 and bring
about $1, but by wailing tires weeks,
or until early November, it \till be a
No, 1, worth about $8. Can one make
money any faster? There is no other.
stock on the farm that will increase!
in value so rapidly.
Prevent hunters and others from;
shooting muskrats, skunks, etc., for,
sport, whenever they get a chance.;
You might as well allow them to shoot
your chickens, turkeys, ducks and
other fowls for sport. It would be no,
more expensive to you. The valuabl
fur -bearing animals on your property•
are your: es mush as any of your'
stock, Protcet them. They ere worth
a little trouble, and will rise in value
from year to year. Do not allow them
to be caught off too closely. Keep a'
good supply on hand from year to
year, as you would with any other'
stock. You would not kill off every,
horse and cow you had en your place,
especially if you could not get any
more. The same should be true with
the fur -bearers.
If a mink or other animal gets to
bothering your poultry a little early,
either get a good safe house for the
hen, or set a box trap at the runway
where the mink will have to enter to
get the hen. If the mink bothers, he
is caught.
Make a pen a few feet square of
small wire netting, covered on top
and bottom. In it have a box and!
small water trough, and keep the mink
until its pelt is prime.
In many places in our country the
fur -bearers are almost all killed off. •
This will not do; they must be pro-
tected. The fur leulustry of this eoun-
try is worth millions of dollars an-
nually. We can not let small fur -
bearing animals go the way of the
buffalo and the passenger pigeon. If
your game laws do not amply protect
your fur -bearers, write to your Mem-
ber to amend therm so that they will.
If they allow people to begin trap-
ping in October, when furs are not
prince until November, don't start
trapping until furs are prime, just be-
cause the late says you may. See that
your neighbors wait, too.'
Many people have signed pledges to
protect the birds. It is just as im-
portant that we should wake up to
Protecting the fur -bearers, before it
is too late. One year there were hun-
dreds of thousands of passenger pig-
eons, and the next year there was
hardly one alive in the world. Now
not a single survivor can be found.
It pays to protect the birds.
Fall Fertilizers For Lawn,
To stimulate the growth of a lawn
and to improve its apps aranee fur
the fol.owing spring no better treat-
ment ran be recommended than the
application of a properly rotted ma-
nure in the lute fall. This ttl.plleation
should not be made until after the
fronts have stopped the growth of the
grass. 'fen to twenty two horse loads
should be anplied to the erre accord.
ing as the :toil is more et is rich.
It is important that the manure
should be thoroughly rotted before op-
plieation so that all weed seeds are
killed, otherwise damage done by
weeds will more than offset the fer-
tilizing value of the application. Ma-
nure needs careful handling before it
is suited for ;spreading over the lawn.
Unless it is properly "composted" 1t
may have mot of its valuable con-
stituents dcatroyed by improper
handling. To "compost" manure pro-
perly it should be treated as follows:
Pile all manure iu heaps with alter-
nate layers of sod or other litter. Keep
it wet enough so it will not burn, Let
it ;stand a uholb year through sum-
mer and winter, forking it over two
or three times during the year. It
will then be ready for use on the
lawns and danger from weed seed will
be minimized.
Many objeet to the use of manure,
at all, not only because of the danger
from weed seeds, hut because of its
unsightly and unsanitary appearance.
These will undoubtedly prefer to use
something else, and the most econ-
omics'' substitute is finely ground bono
or bone meal. This should be applied
at the rate of from 500 pounds to one
ton an acre, according as the ground
is more or less rich.
With the bone meal it ie desirable
to use double the quantity of wood
ashes, which may be mixed with the
bone meal or sown separately. These
ashes contain considerable lime in a

Saving and Storing Seed Corn.
Selecting seed from the field or gar-
den while standing gives one an op.
portunity to get large well matured
ears that were produced under normal
conditions and not the result of ex,
ceptional opportunity for sunlight and

Selection of seed at husking time
is mush preferable to taking seed
from the crib, whore it may have heat*
ed and become mouldy.
Good seed corn should be: First,
well matured, save the hard, firm,
fully grown ears. Second, of good
0140 for the variety. Third, with deep
kernels well filled out and with large
germs. 1;'ourth, with small to medium

HAT is Dr. Webster's definition. Many
of us know the word only in its
war -time application.
Webster dwells firstly upon the usage of they
word "morale" as applied to the commonplace
happenings of everyday life. His allusion to its
reference to en army comes later. And Webster is
corredt—meticulously so.
It was their private•life morale that made such
splendid soldiers of our boys when the time came
for them to don the khaki. It was that, and that alone,
that made them take the first ttep,and it was that which
carried them through to victory. If their every -day
morale had been neglected, the Army could have done
little with them and success would not have crowned
their efforts.
It is the many little incidents of your daily routine that make up'
your morale—the morning shave, your clean linen, polished shoes,
brushed clothes. Webster speaks of zeal spirit, hope and confi.
dente. It is by attention to the small details of your personal,
appearance that these may be attained.
The Gillette Safety Razor enters as much into the morale of every.•
day life as it did into that of the trenches. It helped our soldiers to
maintain their confidence and bearing. It will do the same for yotl.

Catarrh.
Nasal %catarrh is either acute or
chronic.
Doctors call the acute variety
coryza or acute oihinitis; and say it is
either simpleor specific,
'A simple coryza is due to exposure
to cold and wet, to imitating vapors
such as workmen are exposed to in
some occupations; and it accompanies
a good deal of rheumatism, tuber-
culosis tand asthma.
Specific coryza comes on in the
beginning of most oases of the "com-
mon cold," diphtheria, measles and
scarlet fever, and other :infections,
and is due to the genas of those dis-
eases. The symptoms are sneezing,
hoarseness, hoadeaelte, chilliness, at
first dryn'esls in the throat and then,
;after a few hours, of copious dis.
charges, stuffing up of the nostrils and
occasional incessant 'blowing of the
nose. Such it nasal catarrh is very
likely to be "catching."
A sufferer from acute nitinitis
should take one-half a grain of eel-
ontel every hour until there is a move-
ment of the bowels. The calomel
should then be topped off by a seildlitz
\\louder. Then grains of Dover's
powders is a gsod bedtime close for
this conditions, after having taken a
hot footbath. Net day talcs Dr. Lin-
coln's rhinitis tablets, ono every half
hour, until the throat feats dry; these
can be had of any druggist. Tho best
local application is to snatff, up and to
gargle several tunes a day' n normal
salt solution (one-hallf teaspoonful of
table salt to a tumblerful of water) as
hot es can bo borne with comfort.
'a '1
Chronic nasal catarrh is likely to
follow an acute rhinitis. In the course
of time the nasal mucous menthranc
becomes thickened and obstructive,
1aeiirg$i9 broathing labored and
dif milt. Then oftel,n nths or
year's, the anueous membrane becomes
;atrophied,with a bad odor and green-
ish offensive crusts.

Especially must he keep his feet very

and he has to remove the crusting

stimulate the atrophied condition.
No alcohol or tobacco habitue can
