KL TAYLOR CO. LIMITED, Chatham, Sub In future, the maximum area in Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, granted under lease to any one per- sou for ranching purposes will be 'one-half township, or eighteen sec- tions of 640 acres. each, a total of eleven thousand five hundred apd twenty acres. Applications fdr-graz- ing permits on any land' will only be granted after inspection to determine whether the land in question is gras ing or agrigultural. Where the farm- ers adjoiping grazing land express their désire that this be retained as a commons for all to use for their stock, no lease will be granted. Lessees must fence the area they ob- tain under lease. Leases will be granted for ten years, but existing leases will not be distributed until expiration. Lessees will be required to have one head of horse or cattle or five sheep for every thirty acres. Thirty- three per cent. of the required stock {must be placed the first year oh each leased area granted. These new regulations are aimed to precipitate the development of cattle ranching by giving a permaneney to tenure of leases. "In addition the provision of grazing for mixed farmers has not been overlooked, while, as a further move toward fhe encouragement of stock raising, homesteaders may now fulfil their duties by keeping and raising - stock 'instead of breaking land. On Dghorming Cattle This Is the best time of year to de- horn cattle. Nearly all agricultural papers are advising the use of caus- tic potash when ecalves are about three days old to prevent the growth of horns, but the writer found that in his case at least, this method de- feated the purpose, says Theodore Ross, secretary for agriculture for Prince Edward Island, in Farmer's Advocate. Cows that have been de- horned when calves, use their heads almost as vigorously as if they had not been dehorned, and although they cannot tear one another, they frequently do serious damage. They are liable to be hard on fences, throwing off poles or batons and breaking down wire. If, h@8wever, their horns are allowed to grow tiff they are coming two years of age, and are thén removed, the cow is practically quieted for life. As year- lings they are learning that their horns are their means of defence, but they have not yet been able to do any injury. When their horns fare taken off at this age they are completely defeficeless, and are hard- ly ever troublesome. The writer has been dehorning regularly at this age for some years. About fifteen years ago we first dehorned cattle. A valu- able mare had been hooked, and the experiment was the result. Of.ten, cows milking we dehorned nine, the remaining one was old and was be- sldes very quiet. That evening some of them did pot eat all their feed, and they were off in milk from two et A Ate PA Ae A A AAA Arr A AAR, AAA AA A AA AA ens i The Darnless Stocking for Boys pie Mothers get out of practice in darning when their boys wear Buster Brown Stockings.

The morning they all took their feed as usual and were off from four to ten pounds each. The following evening all ex- cept one were up to the old standard and inside of a weeks we were get- ling from twenty to thirty pounds more milk.daily from our ten cows than we had been before they were dehorned. That spring we used the caustic potash on our calves, as we did also for the next two years. The poll cows gave us considerable rtrouble and we atribute the loss of some premature calves to the fight- 'ing of the cows. Since that time we have dehorned regularly and with the best results. If done at this time of year, the cut is healed before the flies become troublesome. -- The Summer Milk Flow George C. Humphrey, of the Wis- consin College of Agriculture, has heen giving considerable attention to the, different ways of keeping up the summer milk 'flow. This Is a subject which might well receive considera- tion at this season of the year, for the milk flow is only maintained by providing -green or succulent feed of some kind when the pastures begin to dry up and are insufficient. Dairymen who have a supply of silage which will be available are most fortunate and have simplified the matter of feeding their cows suc- | cessfully through the summer. Sun- burned pastures present no terrors for them. Experiments have proved that good corn silage is equal to green soiling crops for summed milk production, and is much more con- veniently fed to cows than are green soiling ¢rops which have to be hauled from the fields. Dairymen who do not have" special silos for summer feeding may well at this time con- isider the advisability of building a silo and planting an extra amount of i silage corn to enable them to take advantage of silage during the sum- mer of the following year. i Mr. Humphrey is advising farmers who do not have silage available for | the coming summer to grow a sys- tem of soiling crops which can be fed 'during the period of drought. Oats and peas sown at the rate of two bushels of peas and one of oats at in- | tervals of two weeks may be recom- {ménded. Plots of one-quarter of ai acre seeded at different intervals are considered sufficient for ten cows during the season when these crops can be fed. Early and late varieties ,of sweet corn and field corn probably {provide the most acceptable summer 'oiling crops, and may be fed to ad- vantage as soon as the corn reaches the milk stage, - When green corn reaches the milk stage it has' been found to be somewhat superior to corn silage for keeping up the flow of milk, Early Amber sorghum cut when the heads are nicely out has been found an excellent soiling crop. Taking inte consideration, how- ever, the expense of harvesting, haul- ing and preparation of green soiling (crops during each day anid all kinds jor weather during the summer sea- son and also the difficulties such as jsanfavorable seasons, which shorten ¥the crop, wind and rainstorms, which | { do damage to soiling crops and make | {it difficult to handle them, it is be- lieved that dairymen will find it most | profitable to put up a silo and depend { upon silage rather than soiling crops for keeping up the spmiper milk sup- ply. Butter Making 1. Cool the cream from the separ- ator as soon as possible to 65 de- grees F. or lower. 2. Never mix warm cream with cool cream. J. Mix all the.cream to be churn- cd in ope vat or can. at least eighteen hours before churning. 4. Ripen at a temperature of 70 to 756 degrees F. from six to eight hours, stirring frequently during this period. . " b. Cool cream to churning temper- ture as soon as ripe. 6. Let cream stand eight hours or more (over night) at the churning temperature. 7. The temperature of churning should be such as to make the butter come in fram 35 to 40 minutes, usu- ally G5 to 60 degrees F. 8. If it is desired to use artificial coloring, it should be added to the creain just before churning. 9. Stop churning when the gran- ules are about the size of peas, vary- ing to wheat, and draw off the but- termilk. « { 10, Wash the butter once with pure water at the churning tempera- ture, agitating three or four times, and drain. 11. Wash a second time with wa- ter about four degrees above churn- ing temperature, agitating seven or eight times, and drain. 12.. Add the salt wet while the butter is granular in form, using about one to one and one-half ounces for each pound of butter, according to demands of the market. 13. 'Work the-Butter just enough to distribute the salt evenly. 14. If the butter is to go om the market it should be put up in neat, atfractive packages. Milk Per Acre If it may be assumed that the farm of the average factory patron is fairly well adapted to dairying. that the patron Himself is Inclined towards dairying, rather than, let us say, fruit growing, and that his cows are fairly goed, them it will be of interest to pete how the farm is made to respond to this dairy incli- nation." \ There are frequently noticed yields as low as 250 pounds of milk per acre cultivated ineluding pasture, but some good patrons obtain 756 and 800 pounds per acre. Even this enough, for there are plenty of 'authentic records of 1,100 and 3 3 Bi .. RIDAY, MAY 29, 1014 way ahead of the yields already men- tioned of only 250 pounds which may be found on many a so-called dairy farm in Canada, and is indicative of the possibilities in reach of the fac- tory patron whe. is really anxious to attain. first rank." ¢ It is questionable if the average yield per acre in Ontario is much more than 600 pounds of milk. If loyal, whole-hearted support is given to the local factory and to our na- tional industry of dairying, the farm and the dairy herd will be made far more productive. G help will be derived by keeping . individual re- cords of each cow, :duse the old- established, complacent: "average" cow has no intention whatever of as- sisting the average patron to get 3,000 pounds of milk from the av- erage acre; The first necesseary step is to know for certain that each cow is a good producer, then one may aini~with more hope at $30 or $40 per acre. at Produce and Prices.
