| B R AR AF Y *- . + Propose to Raise Better Dairy Stock. & Ll o+ * + * LXK L e * Farmers of Douglas County, % Minn, Organize Co-Operative Breeding Association. L Ll R R I i 2 2 R S S RS Douglas county has taken a great step forward for better dairy stock. A co-operative breeding-association has been organized through the efforts of T. A. Erickson and A. L. Solum of Al- exandria. Through the aid of the Dairy division of the :Department of Agriculture of Minnesota the associa- tion has purchased a number of bulls with which to practice co-operative breeding. The first aim was to get sires of fine dairy conformation out of butter producing ancestors. With Pro- fessor Grout and a member of the as- L X X3 A Guernsey bulf owned by the Jean Du Luth stock farm. sociation as a purchasing committee, the work of selecting bulls was car- ried forward with a view to buying only the very best bulls to be had for a reasonable price. One of the first bulls purchased was a Guernsey, | whose dam and granddam both have a record of more than 450 pounds of butter fat per year. The record of the dam, to quote exactly, is 559.41 pounds of butter fat per year, and as she is a young cow she will doubtless gain a mwuch higher record before another year has passed. This sire is long of body, with very good depth, and has the dairy temperament well developed. He is good enough in breeding and form to be a credit to one of the best herds if placed at its head. One of the best bulls purchased was a Holstein, out of a cow that gives promise of beating the Minnesota rec- ord This cow has a wonderful depth of body, with almost a perfect udder extending well forward on the belly, ook ock ok bk b e e b e b ke e ek i Cabbage Worm Is i * ) * ctive. * * Very Destru * —_— * Paris Green Recommended as ¥ : the Best Insecticide for De- 3 stroying Pest. B EE R R R R The cabbage worm is a destructive pest, but there is no need ef losing a crop of cabbages through its ravages In August the worms are especially active, and thousands of little whitc butterflies will hatch and. sgain lay their eggs to develop in a few days into ravenous worms. Full growth soon attains, the chrysalis stage again occurs, and in a week or two another crop of butterfiies develops to con tinue procreation and injure the crop Paris green is a deadly poison to the worm. Comparatively little is re- quired to kill it and most entomol- ogists recommend it as the best in secticide to use, though eminent au- thorities differ as to the amount re- quired. One would use one pound of Paris green to 150 gallons of water Others would use three pounds to fifty gallons of water. All would ap- ply 1t as a spray. Professor Wash: burn of the Minnesota Entomological Division says arsenate of lead of the same strength (three pounds to fifty gallons of water) can be used with the advantage over Paris green of its sticking longer on the leaves. A guart of -soft scap, or eight gallons of strong soap suds, should be used in every fitty gallons of solution to insure its spreading well over the leaves. As cabbages head from -the inside the various experiment stations agree with Professor Washburn that the amount used on a single plant is so minute that there is absolutely nc danger to human beings resulting from this use of -these poisons. In New Jersey an experiment was made with a heavy application of Paris green a week before picking the cab- bages. After removing leaves that are ordinarily taken off before pre- paring the cabbage for the table a chemical analysis was made of the edible portion. Not a trace of poison was found. Fearing that a mistake may be aade by careless handling it has been advised that for two or three weeks before picking half an ounce of pyrethrum to a gallon of water, or kerosene emulsion, may be ugsed with satisfactory results. HOME ECONOMICS. [Miss Juniata L. Shepperd, M. A.; Min- nesota College of Agriculture.] Last June seven young women were graduated from the Home Economics course of the Minnesota College of Ag riculture. This course prepares the young women for responsible posi- tions, and gives them a sufficiently broad groundwork for teaching suc- cessfully “in - high schools, normal schools or colleges. It also renders them efficient in things pertaining to right living and special home duties. This college course is superior to the short, or teachers’ course, because suf- ficient time is devoted to it to enable! graduates to lay a solld" foundation upon which the ‘work of succeeding , years may be successfully conducted. The Home Economics course com: | granddam is a half sister to Yeksa | stock, as they are now doing of North- | thought. and well out and up behind, There:is | ‘not one Holstein cow in a thousand ‘with. such . superb -mammary organs. | {Not.only has the danr of the bull:in Question these - wondertul ‘develop- ments, but-she is of pronounced dairy | type, has been milking for severall months, and is still giving between fifty-six and sixty pounds of milk -daily. ) The maternal granddam is:also a wonderful cow, winning much favor at shows. She was sired by the noted {|-bull, DeKol Burke. ‘This bull has a granddam whose of-! ficial record, at four years of age, is 25.27 pounds of butter in seven days. He traces to tkc blood of the noted cow, Colantha Fourth’s Johanna, the world’s record cow for one year’s time. The third.bull purchased'is of excel- lent Guernsey type. tracing directly back to Glenwood Boy:of Haddon, the sire of eighteen advanced registry cows, including the world’s record three-year-old Dairymaid of Pinehurst. The grandsire of this bull's.dam was Standard, ‘the 'sire ' of Standard’s Morning Glory, with a record of 714.01 pounds of butter fat in one year, and Robiline 2d, with a yearly record of 603.59 pounds of butter fat. This bull’s Sunbeam, the world’s champion, and has a record of 542.44 pounds of but- ter fat. His next dam was the prize two-year-old heifer at the world’s fair, Chicago, in 1893. In all the association purchased six Guernsey bulls and. one Holstein bull. An option was taken on .the seventh Guernsey bull, whose dam has an offi- cial record of 412.02 pounds of butter fat at three and one-half years of age. Several of the bulls are to be.locat- ed among the patrons of the Nelson creamery. In a very few years the buyers of dairy cattle will speak of Douglas county as the home of good Guernsey field, the home of the Holsteins, in Minnesota. tic sclence only 1s here considered for the purpose of showing how it puts teachers in possession of knowledge that will enable them, in teaching, to so apply to home duties, the principles learned in school, that housework, in- stoad-of -being drudgery, will be ratscd; to a plane of science and pleasure. Physiology, anatomy, bacteriology, chemistry and physics are. all .taught in the schools as sciences, the aim be- ing to brighten the intellect, cultivate the mind and broaden the horizon of Domestic science teaches the application of these sciences to the promotion of good health and economy in doing home work. The laws of health are suggested In anatomy.and physiology, and thoroughly grounded in domestic science lessons on home and public hygiene. The women of a sister state have.established a:school of life in which they give instruction in parenthood. The young women who take the domestic: sclence course at the Minnesota College of Agriculture, cover this subject, a woman physician belng retained for it. Domestic science offers:basic knowl- edge which renders young women capable of meeting the obligations and discharging the duties common-to all homemakers. It prepares young wo- men for the greatest usefulness in the noble profession of homemaking, which the great majority of them choose; and to accomplish this they must be trained to performall home duties easily.and -effectively. To those who teach it offers such ‘additional tralning as is necessary for the proper presentation of the subject to others. o obe ol ol ok e ol cecdedfe b o b e o} and = Canada through * o % Quack grass % thistles propagate ++ seeds and roots.
