Fruit for Transportation.

The following is the method by which Mr..
Carson. President of the Horticultural Socie-
ty of Victoria, sent fresh apples and pears to
the Vienna Exhibition. Each frait was
carefully wrapped in smooth, fresh tissue
paper, and layer of cotton having been put
in the bottom of the box or case, layer of
fiuit was then placed upon it. Cotton was
crammed between the specimens and next to
the sides of the box, and another layer added.
and so on until the box was filed. The lid
was then nailed on and the package was ready
for shipment. When unpacked at Vienna,
we are told that the fine appearance of the
fruit excited admiration and astonishment." ="
We have received fruit in perfect order after
journey of thousands of miles, similarly
packed, except that fine chaif or soft bran
was used instead of cotton. 1t was of course
essential to select such specimens as would
keep sound lcng enough for the transit The

Influence of Feed upon the Yield Of Butter.


The influence exertel by the food of the
COW upon the richness of the milk is an i'm
portant subject for the farmers consideration.
If the richness OF cows milk which is nat
urally poor, can, by good feeding, be made as
rich as the best of cows, then it is more i'm
portant to feed well than it is to secure good
COWS. If the degree of richness of milk cali
not be materially increased by good feeding,
it is apparent that the selection of cows is
very important
The idea generally prevails that the rich
ness of milk in butter-making elements, may
be increased by giving rich, oily, fatty and
saccharine articles of food. To certain ex-
tent and within restricted limits this is mn
doubtedly true. A COW which is not receiv-
ing sufficient food, which is kept in pasture
was there is a scanty supply of grass with her
other additional food; or which is kept upon
poor hay, will give milk which is poorer in
butyraceous matters than when she is in good
feed, either in pasture or in the stall. There
fore with such COWS which are insufficienty
fed, an increase in the amount, and an i'm
provement in the quality of the food will in
crease the richness of the milk. If, however,
the COW is in good pasture with abundant
feed, or is well-fed in the stall, an addition OF
oily, starchy, concentrated food auM not in
crease the richness of her milk, bnt will very
likely, increase the quantity. Consequently
the extra feed will not improve the quality of
the milk of cow thus circumstanced but by
increasing the quantity, will make the week
ly yield of butter greater.
A cow naturally giving poor milk cannot,
by any process of extra feeding, be made to
give rich milk. The quantity may be IN
creased, but the per cent of butter which 1t
will yield will remain the same. This being
true, and its truth may be demonstrated by
any one possessing such acow, it is apparent
how hopeless is the task of making dairy
of such cows, naturally producing poor milk,
| by any extra feed which can be givea, yield
| milk which is rich in butter elements. The
man who keeps such cows, keeps them 10
his own loss whether he feeds them well OF
scantily. There is no profit in them to the
butter producers.

TERMS $500 PER ANNUM IN ADVANCE.

A COW which naturally gives rich milk
while in good feed, will not have the rich
ness of her milk increased by extra feed.
The quantity will be increased and by this
means, the dairyman will be well recon-
pensed for his extra feed.
Ifa man wishes to be successful in but
ter dairy business, the first requisite is to Sc
cure good butter making co,os. Certain
breeds of cows are prominently distin-
guished for this quality. The Jerseys are
generally considered as standing at the head
of these. They have been bred with es-
pecial reference to the development of this
characteristic. Other qualities such as SYM
metry of form, and capability of readily tax.
ing on flesh have been sacrificed to secure
this one object-the capacity of producing
butter in the greatest attainable excellence.
Cows judiciously chosen from this breed, it
is believed, will prove the most remuuerative
to the man who makes butter-making his
specially. Extra feed givens to such cows
will return the greatest amount of butter for
the food consumed, and that is the decisive
test OF The whole matter. II. r.

Treatment of Older Casks and How to
Make Good Cider.


As the time for making cider is close at
hand, few words to our farmer friends in re-
lation to cleansing cider barrels may not be
altogether out of order. More or less COM
plant is constantly made of bad cider, which
results chiefly from casks not properly cared
for. In order to have good cider, have good
clean, pure casks, and various opinions exist
as to the best method for cleansing them.
Some say to slack a small piece of lime in the
cask will render it perfectly pure; Others use
sweet fern water.
The method Of drawing casks dry and
thoroughly Iinsing and then laying them
away will cause them to mold and must. The
practice of filling casks with water and allow
ing it to remain in them for several days is
almost certain to create must. Now, the best
method to pursue, is not to wholly draw the
casks dry until nearly the time they are TO be
used; then rinse thoroughly with water and
turn them bung down, and after the water
has drained out, turn into the cask two quarts
of alcohol, shake well so that the spirit will
reach every crevice upon the inside of the
cask. The same alcohol will answer to cleanse
number of barrels, and if the same method
is pursued, one cannot fail to have pure casks
The next requisite to good cider is the man.
ner of making. Most people are in too yeat
a hurry to make cider after the apples have
been picked, Apples should be allowed to
lie several days in heaps, before making up;
they will become more juicy and the cider
can be more readily pressed out. Pomace
should also lie eight or ten hours in the
trough after it is ground before removing il
to the press; this gives the cider good color.
If any one wishes for something better
than the above method of preparing cider,
and can afford the expense, we will mem
ton another way of doing it. After the
cider has thoroughly fermented, rack off and
place in kettle over the fire, bring it to a
boiling heat, skim, and return it to the cask
Immediately. To barrel of cider add two
quarts of alcohol, and to every gallon Of
cider returned add one pound of sugar.
Cider prepared in this way will keep for
several years without becoming hard.-Mir-
ror and Farmer.
