We take the following from the Nec
Eng'dad Fa5mcr; From the last years
crop Of fruit there are tons and tons of dried
apples stored away in the farmers garrets
in boxes, chests and bags, waiting and ready
to supply the family tables whenever they
shall be needed. The careful housewife
will give such stores an occasional examina-
ton, to see that nothing is wasted from the
effects of damp weather, insects or vermin.
After apples are thoroughly cured, probably
there is nothing better for storing them in
than tight, clean boxes or barrels. If flour
barrels are used, they should first be washed
entirely clean, as flour adherng to the sides
or heads is liable 10 mould and iniure the
quality of the fruit within. Tight barrels
or boxes are best, because they shut out the
damp air in stormy weather, and also ex-
clude those insects which arc always seek
ing to deposit their eggs and from which
hatch the worms or maggots which injure
so much of the dried fruit which is care.
lessy cared for If stored in bags, the bags
should be fine and clean, AID tied tightly, so
as to exclude all insects which might cause
injury to the fruit
I'VE have all had smarting evidence of
the ease with which mosquitoes can thurst
their bills through the fabric even of our
best and finest clothes, and those insects
which deposit the eggs of the apple worm
have the ability to put their eggs through
pretty small holes il necessity requires. If
convenient 10 do so, bags of dried fruit
should be hung in the open air Of an upper
room where the air can circulate freely, and
prevent injury from mould and dampness
lIousekeepers on farm find this busy
time of year, with fruit 10 dry and to can,
pickles to preserve, and catsup and other
relishes to prepare, and it is all too hard
work to have such labor lost for want of
little watching and timely care during the
changing weather Of summer and fall The
dog day weather is past now aud our houses
should have good airing, and the family
stores q thorough summing or scalding, as
necessity requires. Don't let mould and
decay spoil the results Of hard toll, for the

Vermont CotswOlds.

Mr.. r. &. Hill, Of Elmore has a grievance,
and writes to us as follows alt is real pro-
voking to see how imperfect the report Of
the premiums in the different papers is.
After attending the New England fair and
taking $50 in premiums attended the
state fair, made six entries, aud took six
first premiums and the gold medal for the
best flock. If you win mention these facts
in the WArcnMAN, think YOU will do no
more than justice TO one that is trying to do
his best"
Mr.. lIill is certainly an energetic and la
borious man, who, with little experience and
not much means to begin with, has taken
up the business Of breeding Cotswold sheep,
and prosecuted it to such degree of success
that his choice sheep equal any of that breed
we have seen on exhibition for the last five
years, and even rival the choicest imported
stock
We don't wonder that Mr. Hill gets SOM g.
what iritated at the fact that but little at
tention is given by leading agricultural
journals TO the success he has achieved,
while 50 much is done to herald the less
credltable results Of money rather than of
labor aud care with which he has to com
pete. But the committees, at least, seem 10
do him justice and though editors may
slight the hard-iavored and hard-handed lit
tie sheep breeder of the l.amoille hills, there
can be no doubt that he is working his way
successfully to the front, and a few more
years of effort will bring him the recognition
and profit for which he struggles. Stick to
it, friend Hill

TURNIrs FoR Cows is often said that
COWS giving milk should not eat turnips, on
account OF the flavor these roots impart to
the butter But there is really no trouble
in this respect, if the roots are fed when
there is no milk in the udder; that is, di.
rectly after milking. The roots may even
be fed while the COW is being MIXED, but if
given half an hour before, the milk is dis
tinctly affected. We have fed COW a
bushel day in this way, without the least
turnipy taste appearingi and many dairy

TIM COOLING Morn. ~ This moth, the
parent of the apple worm, is often very de
struetiye, rendering it almost impossible to
get fair msrchantable fruit even from the
best orchards Dr. Hull, Of Alton, Illinois,
who Is a persistent foe to fruit destroying
insects, aud whose curculio catcher is in
general use wherever plums and peaches are
grown extensively, reports that air-slaked
lime, thrown into the trees when the dew is
on them, or just after a rain, at the time the
fruit is set, will keep of these moths and
thus prevent them from depositing their
eggs The lime seems to be in some way
offensive to them. This simple remedy is
worth trying. 1t will be worth millions
to the country if it proves generally sue
