Gyro on Yachts Aid to Seasick

— < Stabilizes Part of Equipment to Make Craft Steady in Storm. New York.—Americans are equipping their newest yachts with a device to take seasickness out of sea vo.v ages. Ii is a gyro stabilizer that stops rolling in rough weather. Announcement that four yachts now under construction are to be ecuippeci with stabilizers is made by Sperry Gyroscope company of Brooklyn Thf craft are being built for Fred -I Fish er. Alfred E Sloan. Jr'., and R W Judson all of Detroit, and Harold Vanderbilt. i Mussolini Hears of It. • low anything Inside a ship can stop its rolling has been one of the most ditliciilt of modern inventions even for seamen to understand An explanation of rhe secret was obtained by Premier Mussolini last summer from Elrnert A Sperry, the New York scientist, who devised the method. He had an audience with Mussolini after the Italian navy installed a stabilizer on its I.2(M>-ton cruiser. Gugliemo Pepe. “Yon have stabilized our Pepe!’ Mussolini exclaimed. “Our designers explained it. but I do. not understand “I cannot see how yon can stop a» ship from rolling unless yo.i reach our from one side to grip a mighty force.” “That.” replied y>e American in ventor. “is Just what we do.’ “Ah." exclaimed Mussolini. “1 knew they told me wrong. What is the force?” “It is a force," Sperry replied, "as strong as Gibraltar and a dnrn sight more useful. It is a law of nature." It is Newton's law of motion, stud led by every schoolboy, and it’s appli wheat Champion is. A Montana farmer won the world championship title for wheat growing at rhe hay and’grain show of the International Live Stock exposition. Chicago. C. Edson Smith, Corvallis.

STANCHIONS ARE NEEDED FOR CALF (Turned Loose Too Soon, j They Get Bad Habits. I ! If young calves are not given good attention during the first few months iof their lives they will become nnder- | nourished, lack in size, and often be■come practically worthless for breeding animals. When fall and winter calves are given good attention they will generally grow into better cows I than spring-dropped calves, as they will be old enough to go onto pasture in the spring and make satisfactory 1 gains. Milk is the food provided by nature ]for calves and man has never found a substitute that equals it. Whole milk is needed for the first month, or at least during the greater portion of it. After that time skim milk may be gradually substituted as the calves will commence eating grain and hay. The maximum amount of whole milk to feed is twelve pounds daily and sixteen. pounds should be the maximum amount of skim milk used. Individual stanchions are needed in j. feeding calves by hand. In this way each calf will get its own allowance l of milk. Grain can be put in the pails after the milk is consumed and the calves will gradually learn to eat. If the calves are turned loose too soon after they are through drinking they will often acquire the habit of sucking ears, etc., which will result in poor gainst After two or three weeks the whole milk may be gradually substituted with part skim milk and the proportion of skim milk gradually increased as the calves gain in size and i age. The milk from the calf’s mother should be fed for the first few days as it is laxative in character and will help get the bowels properly cleaned. Cleanliness in the calf stables and feed buckets is essential in preventing scours and other similar troubles. Sun- | light is necessary if the calves make the best gains. Fresh water should also be supplied as the calves ; will drink a considerable amount. A sunny, protected lot. where the calves may run during warm days will not only give them exercise but will help to keep their stables in better condition and furnish them sunshine. Calves Need Some Whole Milk to Get Good Start Calves which are only one week old need some whole milk if they are to get the best start. However, some people follow the practice of buying calves from dairymen and raising them on substitute rations. The United States bureau of dairy- j ing recommends .the following formula which has been used with considerable success by many dairymen: Fifty pounds corn meal, finely ground; pounds linseed meal; 15 pounds oats, finely ground and rolled;, 10 pounds of dried blood flour; 10; pounds skim milk powder; one-half i pound salt. The above combination of feeds are carefully mixed together. One-half pound of the mixture stirred into four and one-half pints of boiling water and fed when sufficiently cool makes . a feed for a calf which is one month : old. Two feeds are necessary daily. The amount may be doubled by the time calves are two months old.; Calves may gradually be shifted to a ration that is less complicated at that time. £ Dairy Notes $ It does not pay to feed good cows rations that are not well balanced. - Drinking water for the calves 1 | should have the chill removed. The proper cleaning of the separator after each separation is of great importance. Some cows are slow to “give down” and for them the massaging or inanipulation of the udder, that is inevitable in the process of washing is especially useful. Every dairy farmer should provide i himself with a milkhouse to be used l exclusively for the handling of milk and milk products. In building a milkhouse, do not place it top near she stable. * • ♦ Pumpkins pre a good feed for dairy cows. One ton of pumpkins is equal - in feeding value to about 400 pounds of mixed hay or 800 pounds of corn silage. This includes the seeds with , the pumpkins. i The bureau of dairy industry says ' that milk produced by sterile cows that are otherwise in good health is just as good as milk produced by other cows as long as it is normal in appearance and flavor. • * • One of the greatest sources of sour milk and low-grade dairy products is the unsterilized utensil. The tiny bacteria that cause souring, off flavors, and sometimes sickness, grow very fast on the moist surfaces of unsterilized pails, strainers, cans, etc. Egg Manufacture The lien has often been referred to as an egg factory. Consider then the internal organs as parts of a machine, the purpose of which is to produce eggs. The food consumed by the hen is the raw material from which the machine makes the eggs. The receptacle for food then is a large crop filled with the right kinds of feed supplies for the manufacture of eggs, so that when the crop is filled, the hen may continue the manufacture of eggs i as long as this supply of food lasts.
