TIL e following communication
from r. 4. Steele, q prominent
stock raiser Of Kansas to the Dro-
Yers' journal, is full. Of good sense,
and if stock raisers will follow it,
the quality of cattle sent to market
will be rapidly changed:
The:price Of cattle fattened for
market depends on the symmetry
of the animal, as we'll as the fat
style, as shippers term it. | want
here to state that good blood is i'm
portant, but not absolutely necessa-
ry to make what is termed q good
seller. In order to fatten a steer
TO bring the highest market price,
he must he ekept ina growing con-
dition from,a calf, and in no case al
lowed to go hungry. It'll starving
the first and second winter which
wits and shriyels up steer, that
causes him to be sold at q reduced
price. No amount Of feeding will
make him a first class seller, no dli-
ference what his color or blood. An
animal we'll fed 4 care not what
blood-Texas or not) from calf IN
til the spring he is three years old,
will be smooth, with bones we'll cov-
cred. and will sell at profit while
shalfstarYed animal becomes crook
ed in the back; bone projecting and
shriveled up, takes the best part Of
the summer to get in condition to
live, and will not be in condition for
market until he is four years old,
and then will bring price which IS
unsatisfactory to the producer, and
to every one that handles him.
This is no theory, but fact deduced
from close observation as [ have
tested the plan for several years.
It will, and does pay to feed corn
to calves and to yearlings. They
start out on grass in the spring,
strong and vigorous. You are then
able to market your cattle the spring
they are three years old, weighing
1,4oo pounds which is heavy enough
to bring the first price. The best
steer I sold in 1872 was common
native. He had allhc could eat from
a calf, and was. never hungry. He
was handsome animal, and worth
more per poundEthan anything ]

to twenty gentlemen and ten ladies

the organization have to pay-eentle

which are necessary to carry out their
plans. 1t would have been wiser if thew

tore they entered upon those plans 50
that they might have known where thew

MICH COWS AND THEIR TREAT.
MENT.

At this season of the year mich COWS
need the best of treatment. See that
there are no vermin upon them. If there
are, treat them to dose of kerosene
and lard oil-one part kerosene to three
parts of lard oil, poured along the back,
and carled thoroughly. Afterwards,
at this season of the year the thoughtful
farmer will have plenty of good early
cut hay, in sufficient quantity to cause
his COWS to give full flow of milk after
calving. AS it is time that The COWS of
the Vermont diaries are about to calve,
they should have extra care. Cows that
are thin IN flesh should have extra mess.
either of meal or potatoes. Be sure
that your COWS have plenty of pure wa
ter twice a day. 1t is of as much i'm
portance that cow has full supply of
water as it is of feed. Keep them most
OF the time in the stable, excepting very
pleasant weather. The Hon. Nathaniel
Eaton told me, more than twenty years
ago, that when he could be sure and
have each of his cows supplied with a
peck of potatoes day one week before
calving, he never had any trouble from
their not casting the after birth. When
ever L have followed his directions, I
have never failed having my cows do
we'll at calving. After your cow has
dropped her calf, you should examine
and see if her bag is caked: if you find
1T hard and swollen, commence and draw
the milk gradually by hand before the
calf has sucked. After milking what
you can, let the calf suck, and YOU will
have no more trouble with her bag. if
you keep her MIXED clean twice a day.
When her bag is all right, if you choose
increase her milk by giving her milk
producing food-such as shorts. and
cat and corn meal In so doing. Won
will have good COW that will return 4
large profit through the season.

ter corn and potatoes. and if the ground
has not been sufficiently MANFRED for
the previous crop to stock down, to put
on before sowing green manure enough
to make it so. Sometimes | plough it
in and at other times harrow it in.
| have never seen but little difference
in the result, whether ploughed or har-
rowed in Work the ground thoroughly
before sowing the seed. The depth it
should be worked will depend very
much on the character of the subsoil.
[ do not consider it of any advantage
to try to bring to the surface cold hard
sub-soil. If it is brought up an addi-
tional quantity of manure will be needed
in order to make it produce good crop.
After the ground is sufficiently worked
to make it fine and nearly level, the
seed may be sown and narrowed in sufi-
GENTLY to make it grow, other things
being favorable
Two bushels of seed to the acre is my
rule. Before sowing get it as clear as
you can from foul seeds, for there will be
enough of them come up from the soil.
Not having a mill to do it, have a sieve
made for the purpose, which will take
out all but some Of the largest cookie
and wild bean. 1t should then be wash
ed to get out what more you can, and
then lined with dry Stacked lime all
that will stick to it, or so that it will
be dry in short time. Seed prepared
in this way rarely produces smut.
Wheat should be sown as soon in the
spring as the ground is in suitable con-
dition. 1t is not as liable to rust or
blast and is more likely to escape the
weevll, and grass. seed catches better.
If any part Of your wheat is better than
another, save the best for seed In us
ing the sieve to take out foul seed you
also get out the small kernels of wheat
In harvesting cut the grain before it is
too ripe If the weather is favorable.
The straw is better and the wheat will
make better -four The best rule that
| know is, when you take the kernel
between your thumb and finger and
crush it, if 1t is not milky the grain
will do to cut. Cut in fair day; let
the straw wilt, then bind and stock it.
Let it stand until dry enough to store
in the barn. My average yield has been
about twenty bushels to the acre have
raised as high as forty and as low as
twelve
have found it beneficial to change
seed. One variety will do well for
awhile and then seems to fail Some
varieties are better in one locality than
another. Wheat cannot be raised in all
localities. Some soils are better adapt
ed to it than others, and every farmer
must determine by trial what is best
for him.
