A Perpetual Dairy.

Tne old plan of milking cows from six to
nine months during the spring and summer
months, and allowing them to go dry from
three to six months during the fall and win
ter, is rapidly going out of fashion in all we'll
regulated diaries, and in all sections of the
country where the dairy business is carried
on scientifically and successfully. The i'm
COWS go dry under the old system of milking
is equal to deduction of large per cent.
from the profits Of the business, and those
who adhere to this practice ara finding out
that it Is impossible to compete with those who
have abandoned it for the perpetual dairy
system, or the system of running the dairy
the year through. Then, again, the great
expense of packing butter in the
summer season for consumption during
the winter, including the cost of pack
ages, salt and other materials used, added to
the great loss of the butter itself, on account
of its becoming rancid and ruined for any
purpose except grease, must be charged
against the profits of the old system. People

difference in fresh and packed butter, and
they are 10th to give up the use of fresh but.
ter in the fall for butter that has been kept
perhaps imperfectly for from four to six
months. Fresh butter the year round can be
had, and when consumers have made this
fact out. they will hardly take to the con-
sumption of stale butter. however well pre-
served. There is large class, probably
more than half the butter consumers, that
ara willing to pay good advance on
summer prices for fresh butter sll
winter, and this class is rapidly increasing.
Butter makers must sooner or later conform
to the demand Of consumers for fresh butter
Il the year round, and those who prepare for
the change, and put it into practice the soon.
est, will reap the greatest advantage fromthe
change. The first step necessary to change
in this direction is to have half the COWS drop
their calves in the fall, and half in the spring.
The next step will be to provide stable and
feeding stalls and boxes for the COWS to be
MIXED during the winter, and then will
be to produce kind of food for winter use
that will in measure supply the place of
fresh grass during the summer, This can
readily be done by producing beets and carrots
and squashes, and also by raising late corn for
feed in green stalks, and use as long as the

Preventing Smut in Wheat.

1t is prssty generally believed by wheat
faflfers that bluestone or sulphate OF copper
will prevent smut in wheat, at least farmers
quite generally practice rolling their seed In
this mixture before sowing, and believe it
pays to do SO. Il is well, however, sometimes
to have thing that is generally believed
proven, SO that the belief may amount to real
knowledge. Professor Blount, of the Colo
RADIO State Agricultural College, has been
experimenting with wheat to determine
whether there is really any virtue in the blue
stone to prevent smut in wheat. He culti-
waited last year II varieties of wheat. One
half of each variety Of seed sown he wet with
sulphate of copper before sowing, and the
