l^nilESADCI That’s the T rue Test of 
UUinr AIiCh My New San 
No Separator made at any price will 
skim any closer, run any easier, or last 
any longer than my newest Sanitary model. 
Tests by thousands of farmers have proved it. 
Remember, a high price Separator doesn’t mean the best. 
I’ll tell vou where the extra money goes —the difference 
betweer my low price and the cost of other high grade 
machines. Just send for my book and read my 
Separatorsecrets and learn all about Separators. I’ll 
tell you why and how much you save when you buy 
your separator direct from Galloway. I’ll prove 
how this direct buying saves about half on the 
highest class machine and the balance stays in your pocket. 
Sold on Trial for 180 Milkings 
Take nobody’s word. it for 90 days yourself. Then if 
it isn’t just what I claim—ship it right back. I’ll pay the freight 
both ways and refund your money. Its clean, perfect skim¬ 
ming will astonish you. You will marvel at the ease with which 
you can operate and clean it. Every part is rounded—no sharp 
corners for dirt to gather. It runs true in perfect alignment— 
always — because one casting—the gear case—supports all 
the gearishaft and both bowl-spindle bearings. The entire 
gearing has but two high-carbon steel shafts — equipped 
with long, perfect fitted bearings. All working parts run in 
constant oil spray. Separating discs separate entirely from 
each other for washing. Every drop of milk 
get* full skimming force of the bowl. Milk is SO 
distributed that each disc gets its full sharetoskim

Capacity Guaranteed 
T ell the dealer you want a wagon that 
the manufacturer will guarantee to carr}' 
your biggest load. If he is up to date, he will 
show you a Weber or Columbus wagon with its 
capacity stenciled in plain figures on the rear 
bolster. That is the new idea for protecting you in 
3'our purchase of a wagon. 
When you bought by skein size, you could not be 
sure that you were bu5’ing the most economical 
wagon. Now you can be sure. Every Weber and Columbus 
wagon that leaves the factory is guaranteed by the manu¬ 
facturer to carry a known load over the roads that you have 
to travel. 
Nor is that all you get when you buy a Weber or Columbus 
wagon. The folding end gate and link end rods save you 
a world of time. The fifth wheel, which only Weber and 
Columbus wagons have, makes your wagon run easier and 
last longer. Write us for complete information about these 
wagons. You’ll be surprised at the number of good features 
they have.

THE HENYARD 
* Lame Hens 
Can you toll ni<' what is the matter 
with my hensV I find three or four hens 
that o;m’t walk, le^^ are straiftht out 
IipIiIikI and li.ave no us<> of them. Hens 
ha VO Ix'ou shut in all Winter. 
New York. I., i:. L. 
T oanuot tell you the cause of this 
trouble but can suggest a possible i‘em- 
edy. Remove the alTeoted fowls from the 
flock, place them in comfortable quar- 
ter.s by themseh es and administer a good 
idiysic, 'Such as u teasitoonful or two of 
castor oil or a teaspoonful of Epsom 
salts dis.solved in a little water. Then 
feed lightly uixm sofc food for a few 
days. If your hens have access to dry 
mash through the day. feed as much 
mixed grain in the morning as they will 
quickly clean up hut not enough to thor¬ 
oughly .satisfy them so that they will 
not continue to scratch through the lit¬ 
ter for more or go to the dry mash hop¬ 
per at frequent interv.ils. Perhaps a 
quart to each thirty will he sufficient, 
lint be guided by their actions rather than 
by quart measures. m. r. d. 
Heat of Brooder; Moisture in Incubator 
1. How high from the floor should the 
thermometer be hung in a brooder with 
coal burning brooder stove? 2. Do yon 
think it good practice to sprinkle the 
floor of the incubator room with water? 
One is a hot air machine, the other hot 
water. The hot air incubator has a 
Avater tray but the other is supposed to 
be run without any moisture. c. fi. 
New York. 
I. If there are no directions with the 
brooder heater that you are using, it 
would be well to hang the thermometer 
within a few inches of the floor until 
you have h'arned to judge fi-om the ac¬ 
tions of tlie chicks themselves whether 
they ar<‘ comfortable or not. A ther¬ 
mometer is of little use after one has 
had a little experience with the chicks. 
They will huddle in groups and remain 
inactive if too cold but yill spread out 
over the floor and wander about con¬ 
tentedly in seareh of food if sufticiently 
warm, A little observation will teach 
you to regulate the temperature with¬ 
out the use of a thermometer. 2. It is 
a good plan to keei) the floor of the in¬ 
cubator room well .sprinkled, no matter 
what the Type of incubator used. It is 
hardly possible to keep the air of the in¬ 
cubator room too moist, and often very 
difficult to keep it moist enough.

Origin of the Black Langshan, R. 1. Red 
and Brown Leghorn 
What is the origin and history of the 
Black T.augshan. the Rhode Island Bed 
and the Brown I.eghorn? I have five 
pens of purebred hens, but am not sure 
of the origin and history of those men¬ 
tioned above. c. n. g. f. 
Colorado. 
The Langshans. white and black, be¬ 
long to the Asiatic class of fowls, origin¬ 
ating in China and having been import¬ 
ed into this country many ye;trs ago. 
They are among the oldest of the recog¬ 
nized breeds and have long been popu¬ 
lar for their many good qualities. 
The Rhode Island Red is a native of 
the New England States, having its 
origin in a mixture of breeds kept by 
the farmers of Rhode Island and other 
New England ‘States and finally .sep¬ 
arated from other mongreks and brought 
to its pi-f'sent state of perfection by 
careful selection and breeding. 
The White and Brown I.eghorns be¬ 
long to the Mediterranean class of fowls, 
said to have been imported into this coun¬ 
try from Leghorn. Italy, as early as 
1S.24. They are among tin- (dde.st and 
most wid(dy distributed of the breeds, 
and little is definitely known of their 
very early history. The Brown I.eghorn 
resembles very closely, except in matter 
(»f size, the jungle fowl that is believed 
to he the progenitor of all our domestic 
races of fowls. Varieties of all these 
breeds are produced by .selection and 
breeding along certain definite line.s, col¬ 
or markings and other characteristics be¬ 
ing changed in this way. M. n. D. 
Stone Henhouse 
We are living on a farm where stones 
are a cheap building material, ^^'e are 
thinking of putting up a stmie henhouse 
about ino feet long and about 12 feet 
wide. Would a henhouse of this kind be 
too damp, or would the crevices and 
cracks between the stones take up the 
moisture? A, R. 
New York. 
A stone henhouse need not 1)0 any moi‘e 
clamp than one 'built of wood. hut. as 
moisture from damp air condense.s more 
readily upon stone walls than those of 
wood, the intcrioi’s of such houses will 
show moisture upon their walls when 
wood buildings would not. I^nless con¬ 
siderably cheapei’ in first cost and' so 
situated that they can he well ventil¬ 
ated. with good air drainage in their 
vicinity, I believe stone buildings less 
likely to prove wholly satisfactory for 
fowls than wooden ones. No; the 
cracks between the stones would not take 
up moisture. M. B. D.
