Farmers should do two thing* In
conneotlon with raising potatoes thla
year. They should plan to plant po-
tatoes on land which has grown none
for live or six years. Then they
ahould plant absolutely clean aeed on
tbla land. Thla la eaaentlal becauae
laat year a number of potato diseases,
which live In tbe soil and on the tu-
bers, were very commonly found al-
most throughout the state. Thla
means that there ia a large amount of
potato-alck soil and a large number of
diseased tubers. To plant these tu-
bers on Infected soil would almost
surely result In poor crops and un-
healthy tubers this year.
After having selected n piece of
land, known not to have raised die-
eased potatoes, tha aeed tubers ahould
be carefully selected and treated.

one way; by rejecting Infected tubera.

method for getting water from a well

feet of water, which Is 30 feet from
the line on a neighbor’s land, placing
the pnmp on the other side of the
fence Is given by J. 8. Woodward in
the Rural New Yorker as follows:
Dig a false well on his side of tha
fence at any place desired about six
feet deep. Then dig a trench from
that to well deep enough to be below
frost. Run a one and one-quarter Inch
galvanised pipe from one well to the
other, patting nn elbow over the well
and extending pipe down to six Inches
of the bottom with a check valve and
strainer. In the false well put an el-
bow on the end of the pipe, turning

The experience of successful poultry

ardent admirers. Here Is what some
of them say:

The calf may be left with the cow
for three or four days, or until the
milk is fit for use. The calf should
then bo taken away and placed In a
separate stable. If It is possible, as the
cow will give less trouble If she can-
not see her calf.
Hy missing one feed the calf will
usually be hungry enough to start to;
drink readily and will ueually give
little trouble when It finds the bucket
contains milk. Four pounds of milk
per feed three times a day for the first
ten days will give the calf a good start

the calf will begin to eat a little grain.
An excellent grain mixture for calves,
is made of corn meal, oats and wheat
bran In equal parts, with a little lin-
seed meal added.
To grow calves well they should
have Just what they will clean *P'
readily at each feed. Plenty of green
grass Is good for them, but In very
hot or very cold weather a fine quality
of clover hay wUl produce excellent
results.
Calves should have milk until they
are five or six months old, for best re-
sults. If they are forced to subsist on
coarse feeds and grain too young they
will be stunted, as their digestive
system is not developed enough to
handle such food exclusively at nn
early age.
Cotton seed meal should never be
fed to calves under twelve months of
ags. It always proves detrimental to
development of the young calf. This
being true. It Is better to feed such
feeds ns oats, bran and corn, which
are known to be satisfactory. To se-
cure good also the animal should con-
tinue to grow steadily until mature.
If allowed to stop growing, through
neglect In feeding, or other causes,
they become more or less stunted.
