Cattle dogs ®- I have a dog that is supposed to be a “working ccUie” bat al 18 months it hardly knows the differencebetween working and mischief making. Although!* a by no means a dangerous dog I still have to keep it tied up other than usatg him before milking. What do you think is the best way to “ teacn him a lessen A There are too marry “working” collies of this class in existence. been given one or two' and have described them in more coiourtul language. If you trained him yourself, then the fault lies with you. There are several good books on framing sheep dogs and, although yours is a cattle d°& the principles of dog training are similar. I don’t think teaching him a lesson or two will help unless you are prepared to train him (or subsequent Go ? 5 ) properly. Command is No. lin the life of a working dog. Weeds among beans ? trouble with fathen and other weeds in my market garden and have difficulty in keeping green beans growing satisfactorily. Is there any to overcome these weeds?

Calf rearing For rearing calves, which is best for them to be weaned after two months 0, natural idllk from freshly calved cows, or after three or four months of ordinary milk for factory supply strengthened with meal, etc. The first seems but is it in the long run? The answer is undoubtedly “yes”. But that is not the end of calf rearing.
