WHY DEHORN? BECAUSE IT PAYS. 



Dehorning is an improvement in the herd that is 

 becoming very popular and spreading with great 

 rapidity. Everyone that tries it is so well pleased 

 with the way the cows herd together (much after the 

 manner of a flock of sheep) that they wonder how they 

 put up with the goring and loss of calves, to say noth- 

 ing of the danger of life to man as well as beast. 

 There is never a summer but that we have a colt 

 killed or crippled among some of our neighbors. And 

 no one seems to be able to advance the flrst good rea- 

 son for this risk. 



The Keystone Dehorning Clippers are the best made. 

 They are made of but one size, yet they will cut any- 

 thing from a Texas steer horn to a rooster's spur.

AERMOTORS. 



The Aermotor Company of Chicago has one of the 

 largest wind-mill manufacturing plants in the 

 country. Its daily out-put is enormous and carloads 

 are constantly being shipped to all sections of the 

 United States as well as foreign countries. To meet 

 the increasing demand for windmills and pumps es- 

 pecially adapted for irrigation purposes this company 

 is now manufacturing several styles which are un- 

 doubtedly the best and most economical on the mar- 

 ket. Mr. Noyes has invented a pump which reduces 

 the loss of power by friction to a minimum and at 

 the same time increases the amount of water lifted. 

 This pump in connection with an eight-foot improved 

 steel aermotor will raise sufficient water to irrigate 

 ten acres. 



One of the principal features of the Aermotor is 

 that it is thoroughly and completely galvanized after 

 it is put together. This insures the covering of every 

 part, even the rivets and bolts, with a weather-resist- 

 ing coating that is almost indestructible. The im- 

 mensity of this manufacturing concern can be better 

 understood w r hen it is mentioned that in the galvaniz- 

 ing department four carloads of metal are kept in a 

 melted condition day and night. 



L. W. Noyes, the president of the company, is the 

 moving spirit in the establishment, directing per- 

 sonally every minute detail in this vast enterprise, 

 employing nine hundred people and having forty 

 branch houses. Four years ago with remarkable 

 precision Mr. Noyes foresaw the coming popularity 

 of the steel windmill. Acting upon his convictions 

 he began the manufacture of a windmill in accord- 

 ance with his ideas. From this small beginning has 

 grown the large establishment of the present, and 

 business is still increasing in such a rapid manner 

 that another six-story building will soon be added to 

 those already erected.

Game Birds at Home. 



BY THEODORE S. VAN DYKE. 



"To the majority of sportsmen, love of nature is the 

 principal element in the love of hunting. The pleas- 

 ure of exercising skill in the finding and capture of 

 game is really secondary to this, and still more subor- 

 dinate is the flavor or size of the game. Thousands 

 enjoy a stroll with the dog, out of season, almost as
