Our Early Chinese Trade
The rapid growth of our early trade
with China is shown by the fact that
the 37 vessels carrying In 1806 nearly
five and three-quarters millions’ worth
of goods to Canton represented a
larger fraction of our total foreign
commerce than our trade with ths
whole of China does today The silver
Imported to balance American trade
with China averaged more than two
and a half millions annually In the 30
years down to 1827 and reached a
maximum of eeven and a half mil-

COW’S UDDER OF SPECIAL IMPORTANCE
First Prize 8horthom Bull
The direct Influence of what the cow
eats and drinks cannot be too' strong-
ly Impressed uppn the minds of feed-
ers One of the greatest mistakes dairy-
men make is supposing they can win-
ter their cattle on poor fodder and
have them pick up and milk as
well as ever when turned out to pas-
ture in the spring
The cow’s udder is of special Impor-
tance It should be large and its skin
thin The cow’s digestive organs
should be strong and energetio to
make an abundance of good bipod
which In turn stimulates the action
of the nervous system and furnishes
the milk with the means of large
production
It is impracticable to establish any
system of feeding whereby each cow
will receive the same amount of feed
The capacity of each cow must govern
the amount of nourishment she re-
ceives !
A good milker Invariably Is a quick
milker
More regularity can be practiced
where the cows are milked in the
birn than when they are milked In
the yards
In the process of milking the teats
should be kept clean and no dirt or
MULES PROVE BEST
FOR HEAVY TEAMING
Animals Will Do More Hard Work
Than Big Draft Horses and
Eat Much Less
The mule Is not such a fool as he
looks
The South has been saved since the
war by the mule and bis darky
driver
For farm work the medium sized
mule Is best For heavy teaming an-
imals standing from fourteen and one-
half to fifteen hands will do more
work than a team of heavy draft
horses and eat less
It takes big boned mares to breed
large mules
No work animal will recuperate
more quickly from the effects of abuse
or hard work than a mule
It costs about one-third as much to
keep a mule shod es e horse
Most mules have more “horse
sense” than a horse
The farmer who uses mules Instead
of horses will save at least one-half
the amount of feed that horses re-
quire A sound cleanlimbed well set up
mule team will bring from 9304 to
9400 at three years
Northern farmers can make money
by raising mules for the southern mar-
ket The greatest difficulty Is to get
good jacks in the north
A team of mules worked steadily
for sixteen years on an Illinois farm
and was then sold to go Into a coal
mine
A mule seldom runs away through
fright but generally out of pure mis-
chievousness Fool masters are for the most part
responsible for vicious mules They
(the mules) are usually "broken’’- with
a club and the master ought to be
MITE-PR00F PERCH
IS THEJONE TO USE
Should Not Be So High That
Fowls Will Injure Feet In
Jumping From Them
The simplest constructed perch we
can get If It gives satisfaction should
be the one we should build There is '
no place for the mites to bide even
should they get on these perches The
perches are made of 2x4-inch stuff
with one edge rounded the pieces that
form the support for the perches are
of the same material as the perches
also that of the legs which are one
foot long which makes the perches 18
Inchse from the floor sufficiently high
for convenience and not ao high that
when the fowls Jump from them they
will bruise their feet causing “bumble
foot” broken legs or breast bone The
legs should fit the cans loosely ao that
In removing them to facilitate clean-
ing out the droppings the cane will
not be overturned The cans should
contain an Inch or two of keroaens or
coal oil at all Umca and there Is no
possible chance of any mites big or
little getting by
I
hair allowed to fall Into the pall
The man who takes the most pride
In his own dairy Is rarely as well
pleased with cows he buys as with
those of his own raising
Cows should never be allowed to
get lntolow condition before they are
due to drop their calves Nothing Is
better established In all dairying ex-
perience than that it is unwise to
have the cows in poor condition at
calving time
There is no point more worthy of
our careful attention than that of giv-
ing the young calves a good start in
life They must have good milk for
the first few days
Whatevei Is given to cows to eat
never neglect to give them pure air
to breathe clean watbr to drink and
clean beds to lie down on
Money expended in making the cows
comfortable will bring multifold re-
turns to the dairyman's pocket
Ventilation cannot be neglected to
any extent without Injuring the qual-
ity of the milk produced and endan-
gering the health of the herd and
those who care for them
It may be Bet down as an Indispu-
table fact that an udder which is In
an unhealthy condition cannot secrete
pure milk
POULTRY PAY WELL
WHEN ATTENDED TO
When Left to Run About Farm
Fowls Are Nuisance and Not
Worth Keeping At All "
How many farmers that have good
sized farms have ever given a thought
to devoting some of their time to a
systematic and orderly place where a
good flock of chickens might be kept
On many farms the Idea Is that poul-
try should be left "to the women” as
there is not enough profit in It for the
men to worry about The only reason
that any poultry la kept on such farms
Is to supply eggs and an occasional
fowl for the table It la natural that
If they are left to run all over tie
place they will certainly he a’ nuisance
and actually not worth keeping at all
However this would be true of any of
the other stock on the farm If It were
not looked after In the right manner
You don’t see anyone who has a
fine flock of well-bred chickens who Is
not proud of them and ready to argue
that they are a source of profit Why
shouldn’t they beT It a farmer were
to give hla flock the same kind of care
that he gives to his fine herd of cattle
or any of the other stock that is on hla
farm it le only reasonable to believe
that the results would be satisfactory
If this were done instead of thinking
of the flock as a nuisance (or not
thinking of it at all) be would find
that as much profit can be made from
the poultry as from any other part of
the farm
FEW POULTRY HINTS
FOR THE HIRED MAN
Some Practical Suggestions
Which If Carefully Followed
Will Prove Advantageous
I want to make some suggestions
for the hired man to follow They
have helped me and may help others
who have to do with poultry
Be on time
Follow the master's orders
Feed the stock at regularly ap-
pointed hours
Keep the premises clean and do not
allow the manure to collect In the
houses
Be watchful noting when fowls are
off their feed and when there are
signs of droopiness
Make repairs the moment you see
they are needed and do not wait until
the boee tell you about the matter
Be as careful In the care of the
stock aa though It were your own and
that your living depended upon your
results
Be regular In all your dutlee open-
ing the houses In the morning and
dosing them at night at regularly ap-
pointed hour
Go quietly among the poultry never
allowing them to become scared
teaching them that yon are their
friend and they will 190a show entire
confidence In you
These rule carefully fdlowed will
keep the Job for yon ‘

THE WHEAT LANDS OF
WESTERN CANADA
AN ATTRACTION
THE EUROPEAN WAR MAKES
THE GROWING OF WHEAT EX-
CEPTIONALLY REMU-
NERATIVE One result of the European War has
been to reduce the volume of busi-
ness done by many of the manufac-
turing Institutions cf the United
States commercial enterprises hate
been affected business of many kinds
have been hampered and a financial
stringency baa been forced on almost
every community It is not only be-
cause It has brought these things
about and created a lot of hardship
but there is the outstanding fact of
the terrible loss of life the great de-
struction of property and the disrup-
tion of everything near and dear to
those whose countries are involved in
the war that makes the whole affair
highly regrettable The heart of the
entire world goes out in sympathy to
those within the area of the trouble
Arrangements have been made to re-
lieve the distress by money and other
means But there is one great thing
— wheat and flour— that the European
countries will need The wheat-producing
countries are no longer pro-
ducing and there Is the gravest rea-
son to fear that they will not be for
some years In this case It would be
fully as beneficial and charitable to
make provision to meet the loss of
Europe’s grain crop by encouraging a
greatly increased growth on this con-
tinent The wheat-growing sections of the
United States have about reached
their limit of production and this
source cannot be depended upon to
meet a great deal of the demand that
there will be for some years The
only country that Is in a position to
meet It Is— Canada — that portion
known as Western Canada Here
there are millions of acres of land
capable of producing from 20 to 40
bushels per acre All this land 1b ex-
cellent for wheat and very much Is
still in the hands of the Dominion
Government and 160 acres of it can
be had by the payment of a ten dollar
entry fee
Another vast area la that held by
railway and reliable land companies
held at from $10 to $25 per acre Im
proved farms are slightly higher in
price Information regarding these
lands may be had of any Canadian
Government Agent
The fact that Canada offers such a
splendid opportunity should be ac-
cepted with a wide-spread apprecia-
tion and not met with attempts on
the part of some to spread misleading
statements The Dominion Govern-
ment has not taken steps to deny
many of the false statements circu-
lated by those who evidently are more
Interested in Injuring Canada than
benefiting those who would be bene-
fited by taking up farms In Canada
but In order to correct a highly er-
roneous Impression that conscription
is carried on In Canada that compul-
sory military service is employed and
that there is restraint aa to the move-
ment of those not Canadians the ne-
cessity Is felt of giving as much pub-
licity as possible to a denial of these
statements
An item to which special exception
is taken is one which says:
"They are lending them away as
rapidly as possible but the young
men are not permitted to leave Can-
ada All the citizens and those who
have taken up homesteads are subject
to military duty”
In direct refutation of this we beg
to quote from a recent editorial In the
Rochester N Y Herald:
"There is no legal process by which
Great Britain can command a single
Canadian soldier to enter the field In
her aid or even In her moot needful
defense Great Britain cannot legally
take a dollar of Canada’s money for
this or any other war without Can-
ada's consent All must be given vol-
untarily if it be given at all Yet
men and dollars are given to the limit
of Canada's power to give Just as If
Great Britain had both physical and
legal power to exact them Indeed
It Is possible that they are given
more freely In this way for what a
man gives because he wants to give
is likely to be greater than what he
gives under force
“All In all It is a noble picture of
devotion to her motherland which
‘Canada offers to the gaze of her ad-
miring and nnenvlous neighbors"
Canada's invitation for immigration
extends to all who are willing to go
on to the farms
