Economy in Cows.

1t does not pay any man, much less Il
poor one, to purchase or keep poor COW.
One may think that if he has Il COW that
keeps easily, and gives milk enough for
the family, he is doing well in the dairy
line. Such a COW may have cost him $40.
A small family will get along very well
on three or four pounds of butter Il week
and two quarts of milk per day to use,
besides the necessary cream for tea and
coffee. A $40 COW may supply this, and
the owner think himself fortunate. But
is he doing the best he can on the capital
invested in the COW and her food? 1t
costs nearly as much to keep such a COW
as to keep one worth $50, and the latter
should make, at least, eight pounds of
butter per week, besides supplying milk
and cream in abundance.
Suppose, then, there were four pounds
out Of the $50 COW to sell, at an average
of 80 cents per pound-this will give in
six months $3.50 for butter sold. For
three months she will yield a surplus of
two pounds per week for sale, swelling
the cash receipts to $50. For one month
more she will supply the family. On the
other hand, the $40 COW will supply the
family with butter during about eight
months, and for two months more will
only afford milk and cream. During
these two months four pounds of butter
per week must be purchased at an aver.
age of 40 cents per pound, costing, in
the aggregate, s22.S0. This, added to
the surplus for the $50 COW, gives a de-
f~ciency on the inferior animal of s4S.S0
in round numbers we will call it $50,
as the difference will be considerably more
than made up by a surplus Of milk for
the pig.
Now, as it is expensive keeping a COW
when the owner has all his feed to pur-
chase, can he afford to keep an inferior
one? Would not a superior animal pay
her owner cost in surplus for sale.
Take another estimate. 1t is said that
the average yield of cow kept for family
use is not more than 1900 quarts OF
milk per annum At five cents rer quart
this amount of milk is worth $50. A
good Ayrshire or Short Horn may be
purchased that will give, at least, 1000
quarts per annum, which, at five cents
per quart, is worth 5000. If the inferior
COW would supply the family, the superb
or one would yield 1900 quarts for sale,
which will bring in a small town five cts.
a quart, making a total Of $40 clear
gain. The extra cost of keeping a supe.
rior animal might cut down this profit to

Orchard Policy.
LET THE ORCHARD, AND THE ORCHARD

LET THE ORCHARD, THE ORCHARD
ALONE, OCCUPY THE LAND!
| was talking with Il fruit grower Of
three score and sixteen years, a few days
since, upon the policy of permitting or.
chards to be occasionally cropped with
corn, ETC., and then left in grass five, six,
or more years. This old fruit grower
has now over one hundred and fifty va
rieties Of apples in cultivation, and has
grown hundreds of varieties of pears,
while in cherries he is second to no man
in his knowledge and extensive practice
Herewith and IN peaches, plums, and
the small fruits, each year Of his life has
found him possessed of new varieties to
test and compare with those already be.
fore the public. So that l felt that his
opinion was worth gathering.
The result of our talk was an emphatic
remark that "he who thinks to grow fruit
in an old settled or cultivated country,
after the manner of the new sections,
makes a mistake"
In the new settlements, where the
ground is free from the larvae of insects,
where, in fact the insects, found only af.
ter a period of civilization and cultivation
are not, fruit growing is nothing more
than to plant the tree or bush it will
take care Of itself and yield a crop Of
perfect fruit. But as each section Of
country grows old in its settlement and
cultivation, so insects increase, and he
who expects to grow fruit proftably must
make the orchard or garden alone a spe-
ciality or, in other words, if he is to
grow apples he must set apart land for
apples, plant the trees thickly, cultivate
the ground yearly by blowing light in
the autumn, turning the soil to the trees,
and IN spring and summer, until August,
cultivate with a cultivator, stirring the
ground two to three inches, sufficiently
often to keep the surface mellow aud
open to light, air, and moisture. AS the
trees grow and interfere with each other
cut them out they have probably paid
in fruit more money than would have
been obtained had the land been used fol
corn and potatoes If the ground be
naturally poor, apply yearly Il top dress
ing of manure in the fall just before turn
ing up the soil to the trees with tn,
pillow.
Occupy each plot of land separately tt
n variety of fruit rather than mingl'
pears with apples, peaches among cher
ries, or even email fruits, as raspberrie'
~blackberries. etc., or Strawberries anon
grapes, as many advise. Give the Ian
to its speciality, care for that and tina
alone, ana a paying success will resul
nine years out Of ten.
l thought of these remarks, locke

ably, and who failed, and %grumbled b'

ture and attention as a specially to Il
last named, while the successes were a

More than oncc we have had occasion
to speak of the injurious effects of drink
ing large quantities Of cold water during
the hot weather; and have also advised
our readers to follow the suggestion Of an
old and esteemed physician, long in sue
cessful practice in this State years ago,to
use only hot or warm drinks during the
excessively hot weather of summer. This
physician advised the housewife to al
ways have the teapot on the stove, that
the workmen at haying might have warm
drink, as it satisfied thirst much better
than cold water, was more healthful, and
when accustomed to its use would be pre-.
ferred by the men themselves. In our
desire to suggest all the comfort possible
to men obliged to labor hard in the heat
of a summer sun, we again mention the
above, and also present the following
receipt for a wholesome field drink, fur
nished by I" a farmers wife" to the Ger
mantown Telegraph -

utes, then strained to the strained liquor
add one pound of sugar, and again place
it over the fire; keep it well stirred till
the sugar is perfectly dissolved, and then
pour it into an earthcn vessel, into which
you have previously put two drachms Of
t~artaric acid, and the rind Of one lemon,
and let it remain till the heat is reduced
to a lukewarm temperature then add o
tablespoonful of yeast, stirring them well
together, and bottle for use. The corks
must be well secured. The drink will be
in high perfection in four Or five days
This is a very refreshing and wholesome
beverage, and one which may be largely
partaken of without any unpleasant re,
suits even in the hottest weather.
