Alfalfa Makes Cheap Milk.
A summary of feeding trials with

dairy cows carl be produced much
more cheaply with alfalfa than with
grain the cost of producing milk may
be greatly reduced by its u- e.—D. H.

Parting cf the Ways.
In calf feeding at the end of four or
live months is the parting of the ways
for the steer ami heifer calf. If thn
beifer is to be reared with (tic view to
making her a dairy cow of greater
value than her mother, then she must
be fed for milk production. This is an

Japan's Interest In Horses.
The Breeder's Gazette, Chicago,
quotes a cablegram, as follows:
"Ilorae racing has lately been Intro
duced into Japan with great success,
and with an ulterior motive. As is wel)
known, the cavalry was the weakest
»rm of the .Japanese forces during the
Ute war, and its lack of success la at
tributed to the poor quality of Its
horses. With their usual practical

the
most effective way of creating a
fine breed of horses Is to encourage
horse racing as practiced In western
countries. Accordingly the government

fervor which springs as much
from patriotism as from
a
love of sport

ROUND BARNS.
Information About Two Satisfactory
Oihs Now In Use.
1 have been in the daily business for
nine years, having begun as a renter

in naval and rural architecture.
I tried in vain to I'i i.l a:i architect

So I went to work and made plans of
