The POINTS ON SAFETY — In addition to having a Capital of $50,000.00 this bank has earned a surplus fund amounting to $30,000.00 — —a sum greater than that of any other bank in Bates county.

In addition to being. approved by the Board of Directors at their regular meetings, all loans are passed upon by a special committe which meets regularly each week. This institution is subject to the stringent banking laws of the State of Missouri, and the officers of the bank are glad at any time to explain their methods which insure the safety of the institution.

The only objection to whole oats for young foals is that they are not so easily di- gested as crushed oats. If the mares and foals are running on pasture, there will be no need of roughage. but if they are kept up, a little green feed, clover or alfalfa hay put where the foal can eat it at his leisure will be helpful. MILK FEVER. TREATMENT By A.C. Page, College of Agricul- ture, University of Mis- souri, A scrub cow is in very litle danger of milk fever. It always picks out the test cow in the herd. A high bred, high producing cow is likely to be! affected. | The condition most favorabie to| milk fever is found in the high-pro- ducing cow which has been well fed and kept in high condition~ just pre- yious to calving. Her blood is full of the materials which go to make milk when she freshens. The better her condition, the more danger there is of an attack. A heifer having her first calf is not likely to be troubled with this dis- case, because it usually follows a repid and easy delivery, which is not common to young heifers. An attack rarely follows a long, difficult labor. The first symptoms of milk fever come within a few hours after the calf is born. The cow shows the com- mon signs of fever, fs uneasy, and without appetite. In avery short time she will begin to show the paralysis which is characteristic of this divease, In. a little while she will sway back and forth as if drunk, and soon be- come unable to stand. The paralysis passes gradually to the other parts of the body, the cow being partly uncon. scious. If she is not treated, death will soon occur, Only a few years ago, inilk fever vas known as a fatal disease. Half a dozen remedies were tried, but they all failed most of the time. Now, how- ever, there is a simple treatment which is almost a sure cure. its re- sults are rapid, and the cow soon re. covers. The principle of the new treatment is the injection of air into the udder. No one can explain just why this does the work, but it does. Any kind of an air pump may be used to administer the treatment. Usually a bicycle pump can be found in a hurry if no other kind is avail- able. The chief precaution to be ob- served is in keeping dirt from enter. ing the udder either in the air pumped in or on the milking tube used. The first may be accomplished hy filtering the air through cotton soaked in carbolic acid. A convenient apparatus may be made for this pur- pose by using a wide-mouthed bottle with a two-hole cork, and two pieces of tubing. The tube leading into the bottle should be below the surface of the cotton. The other may be short. ‘The udder should be washed in warm water before pumping up, anv THE COLLEGE FARM. ‘take only a few hours, PERCHERON MARE srain should be changed twice a day in order to prevent scouring, * Any time between five and eight months of age will be a suitable time for weaning. A very successful meth-| od is as follows: Take a foal away from the mare, ! and, if possible, put two or three of | them together in a light, elean and roomy box stall. Place the accus-| tumed grain and hay ration before them. Keep the mare far enough away from the foal so that neither may see or hear the other, and with- in three or four days they will have practically forgotten their former rela- lion. In many cases, weaning may be | accomplished without any noticeable | loss in weight on the part of the foal. should be supported from the ground by a clean cloth or towel on some straw. Sterilize the milking tube be- fore inserting in the teat, und do not touch it to anything which might leave a particle of dirt or infection on it. Pump up each quarter uutil it is tense, but not strained with the pressure. In some cases it will be necessary to tie the end with a cord or tape to keep the air in. This treatment should be started ag soon as the cow shows the symptoms, und kept up persistently until she is on her feet again. It will ordinarily It ia well to | notice, when she is up again, that her Cigestion is working properly. It it is not, half a pound or more of Epsom | salts will help. i GOOD SHED FOR WINTER can be used to much better advantage than by building a straw-sned. This is a very inexpensive structure, and the calves or other stock will appre- ciate it in the winter, The uprights are most easily made from forks of trees set in the ground. Poles are laid through these, and A COLLEGE D j ONSTRATION FARM OEM” STRAW-8SHED ON then old rails or boards spread over the poles so as to hold up the straw. When the wheat or oats is threshed, the machine may be set so as tu ‘blow directly on to the framework, and the shed will be complete. In finishing out the top it is necessary to round it off to prevent leaking taruugh in rainstorms. . This kind of a shed should a:ways fuce the south. It will be found very convenient for any stock that is win- tered ‘outside. .This is the year to put up a silo.” No other system will save so much of your corn crop and make so much fr§m the same acreage as putting the corn in a silo. It pays at both ends, Jt saves feed and the cattle like it better than dry feed. A silo is nc very expensive, aad it will soon pédy. tor itself.
