NOTES from MEADOWBROOK FARM

By William Pitt

Cows like pumpkins.

Separate all indisposed turkeys. Have a regular day for greasing the wagon. The cow is a vital part of the dairy machine. " The olive trees date back to very early times. Few horses can digest perfectly clear timothy hay. There is no animal more' unprofitable than a poor sheep. Horses that have a light hay diet are seldom affected with heaves. It does not make very much, if any, difference when a cow is fed grain. Good horse blankets are savers of valuable horse flesh and high-priced feed. 1 You can hardly push pigs too fast, providing you use the right kind of food. • • Dirty collars are probably as responsible for sore shoulders as illfitting ones. i You cannot fatten a brood sow anfi fatten a hog alike and make the best success of both. From eight to ten hens to one tom is good mating with turkeys, and should produce 150 poults.

A good cow ought to produce on an average 25 pounds of four per cent milk daily for 300 days in the year. ('lose housing and bad ventilation in the cow stable are favorable conditions for starting tuberculosis in a herd. Tu'sY' d r y nesting quarters, tbs pigs .- hi have a good-sized lot in which they may get plenty ‘of exercise. As long as the breeding of a sow is i-rofii tble she should be bred It i r tit. : •ivimble .to sell off a good brood animal. Crc .ai the horses well after hard work. The skin is thus not only cleaned, but safeguarded against parasite diseases. Brush the mud off the cow’s udder atd Hank, then wipe off with damp ! cloth. You can’t strain mud out of | milk. Keep it out. The cow your neighbor does not want to sell is tlio one you want to buy. Get around this dilemma by raising that kind yourself. Three years of spraying, pruning and cultivation will bring an orchard that you are ashamed of into a condition that you will be proud of. Scrape off loose, peeling bark from the trunks of trees before spraying them, because this serves as an„excellent breeding place for insects'! | To get the best eggs for hatching, ' the rations should "be' of good grains balanced by milk or meat food and must include green food in some form. High prices should not tempt the wkc dairyman to part with his good cows and heifers. Remember they are just as valuable to you as to anybody else.

BOUND FOR MICHIGAN.

MANY FARMERS from Indiana and the North and Central States are going to a district In Michigan where new towns are lapid.y growing . and a thriving community i s being established Tins is m Mason, Manistee and Lake Counties in a larse tract 0 land known as the Swigart Tract. Here « * agricuS ur . al development is going on that is more rapid than has ever been seen in the State. , -

ADVANTAGES that are drawing settlers to this are—that it lies in the center of Michigan’s Famous Fruit Belt and is especially adapted for fruit growing, the lands being just near enough to derive the greater benefit from Lake Michigan’s influence; adaptability of the land to growing good crops oi grains, grasses and everything that is raised in lowa and Illinois; mild, even climate; local markets, including Ludington and Manistee with over 30,000 combined population,' on the edge of the tract; surroundings of a well settled country; four lines of railroads; products delivered by steamships to Chicago and Milwaukee over night; schools and churches throughout the tract; home conditions ideal; one thousand 4 0-acre pieces to select from. THIS is the place for the renter to go who no longer w r ants to pay out the bulk of his earnings in rent where lands are so high priced that they can be owned by the wealthy alone. It is the place for the man to go who wants to w'ork for himseif. Nowhere can ,one find lands for sale at $lO to $35 per acre that >an t - made to so qu’ckly produce a living. DO ic OU \\ ANT a productive piece of farm land that will support you •in plenty while you build it up into a property becoming constantly more valuable, then buy in the Swigart 1 ract. There’s where your money will go the farthest. For to SSO down and $5 to $lO per month you can buy 40 acres. While you are buying the farm, if you should die, it will be
