A story is told about the ordination of 6
young English clergyman, whose name was
Salter. Nature bad gifted him with hair
which wss the reddest of the red. Feeling
that in the solemn ceremonies Of his ordins-
ton this red hair might be the cause OF
irreverent mirth, especially as the ritual
presciibss that the Bishop should touch it,
he determined to dye It black for the oc-
casion, which he did. The Bishop after
ward expostulsted with the hspless SAlter,
and alleged against him the authority OF the
rubric in the prayer book, which says:
The Psalter must be read in the churches"

How to Tell GOOD rcys.

A good egg will sink in water.
A boiled egg which is done will dry quickly
on the shell when taken from the kettle.
The boiled eggs which adhere to the she'll
are fresh laid
After an egg has been laid day or more
the she'll comes off easily when boiled.
A fresh EGG has a ime-like surface to its
shell.
Stale eggs are CLASSY and smooth OF she'll.
Eggs which have been packed in lime look
stained. and show the action of the lime on
the surface.
Eggs pscked IN bran for long time smell
and teste musty.
With the aid Of the hands, q piece'ofDaper
rolled in funnel shape aud held togard the
light, the human eye can look through an
EGG, shell and all.
If an egg is clear and golden in appearance
when held 10 the light, it is good; if dark and
spotted, ii is bad.
The badness Of an egg may sometimes be
told by shaking it near the holders ear, hut
the test ia dangerous one.
Thin shells are caused by lack of gravel

The "Uoiniux cow"
IBreeders' Gszette.l

The position tkat the coming cow is TO
be one we'll adapted for both beef and milk
production we believe TO be correct il it be
not pushed too far. There is an increasing
number of dairy farmers who find it best II
Give almost exclusive attention to the guam
tity and quality OF the milk given by their
COWS, caring little about their merits as beef
makers. So there are beef-producing farmers
who properly count it disadvantage il q
COW gives n large flow OF milk. This il true
on the Western plains. 1t Is true OF such
farmers, who only ask for cow that shall
produce and feed calf each wear.
Both these classes form but q minority
OF cattle raiseIs. The most successful dairy
men and the producers of the very
finest beef animals may be found in these
classes; but the greatest majority of cows
and of steers for beef are, and long will CON-
tinue to be, raised by men who can not
afford to ignore either the milk-giving or the
meat producing quality. For such men the
popular breed must be one with deserved
claims to good quality IN both directions. II
is quite possible that several breads may, in
the future, be claimants for highest merit
for this dosble purpose, but the course of
breeding now adopted by the special friends
Of most leading breeders is calculated to de-
Selop one OF these qualities at the expense of
the other. The Shorthorn has never been
surpassed. if equaled as general purpose

Feeding Value of Ensilage.
Breeders Gszette.I


We have inquiries concerning the feeding
value of ensilsge, some of which show some
confusion of mind in regard 10 the subject
Bearing in mind few general princi pies will
help TO a better understanding:
1. The value of food preserved in a silo
depends very greatly on what was put in-its
nature and condition. The material used and
the degree Of maturity of the crop will great
ly affect the value.
p Putting grass, cornstalks or other sub
stances into = silo does not add anything to
the Hutriment contained in the material We
can not tske out what We did not put in
Cutting aRd storing the green food in a silo
msy make it more digest BILE; may and oflen
does make it more pslatable than when the
food IS dried in the open air. Letting the
moisture dry from meadow grass or from
green coTD-stalks in itself should not make
these substances less desirable food. In fact,
is does make them less pllaLable. Preserving
mnch OF this moisture in the ensilaged food
nay be help.
5. If fermentation goes on in the silo to
any considerable extent there is absolute
loss of food value.
4. Reason and experience alike lead us to
conclude that We can not make ensilaged
grass or corn-sIelks alone take the place of
good grain feed. The latter should De given
in connection with the former.
.. Reason and experience alike show that
almost any palatable, nutritious, succnlent
plant kept in a silo, With REASONABLE exclusion
of the air, makes palatable and fairly salts
factory feed.

An ObjecuOn To siulchlng.
Fruit Grower.

There is growing suspicion that the source
Of tur inject troubles affecting the strawberry
may be found IL the practice of mulching.
ana there are certainly many circumstances
which render this view likely to prove the
true one. On careful inquiry of many
strawberry men who ship their fruit at this
ONT and from an examination of their
fields and fruit, it is aScertained that these
fields uDmulched have been very nearly or
entirely free from the bug which have
wrought such ruin on the mulched fields.
Captain II. Andrews brought us several
plants thick with berries IN ali stages OF
growth and without any sign of bug work
lie has heavy crop of splendid berries and
used no mulching. II. J. Hileman hes a
large patch OF fine berries that were not
mulched. Drake Rendleman, Perry Turner
and others who neglected to mulch have
good crops of berries. Mr.. Earle's fields were
thoroughly mulched and are alive with the
bug. Er. A. d. Finch's fields were mulched
and sTe also full of the festive bag. Others
who mulched have suffered in similar way
The insects have been actively breeding
bene ash the mulch during all the winter and
spring, and now the careful fruit grover
finds bis lab r lost AZ least it has tnas sp-
Iearsnce. To mulch a strawberry field, looks,
ss one grower expses ses il, like jumping from
The frying pan into the fire. Considering the
possibility or rather probability OF the mulch
acting Gs harb0r and factory for the bug,
will it not be better to put on the mulch late
in the spring instead of in the fall?

For the past few weeks we have been
speaking through these columns on the ben
eEts aeIicUltUrists of this couatry would de-
rive by taking greater interest in the cul-
tivation Of the artificial grasses. In England
the nun Der of grasses that form the basis OF
permanent grazing comprise come twenty
six different and distinct varieties. On this
side CT the Atlantic the number is reduced
to very few, indeed. One great obstacle in
the Uay Of preventing these grasses from
coming more practically under the notice of
gTsziers is the almost prohibitory duty CT 20
per cent sd valorem TO which they are sub
jected. The report OF the Treasury Depa IT.
ment shows that the amount of duties col
lected on agricultural seeds for the fiscal yea-
ending June 30 1879, was 1882; $780,
SIS. s31.25, and 1881, Sc, 1917. These
show on the average of three years, an an
nual revenue from seeds of $53 $40, and in
these returns are included farm, garden and
flower seeds. AS already mentioned, owing
TO the limited cultivation of artificial grasses
in the United States, we may safely say that
in these returns there were not more than 10
per cent. of that class of seeds, on which the
duty collected amounted TO the insignificant
SUM of 1851. On looking over these fig
xTes, we thought il might be well to as
certain in what relation agricultural devel-
opment stood before foreign States We find
that in France, United Germany, Spain, Italy,
Belgium, Holland. England, European and
Asiatic Turkey, all agricultural seeds and
seeds for producing fodder and grazing are
free of duty, and in some of these countries
q State premium is awarded to farmers who
can produce the best and largest quantity TO
the acre. We wish right here 10 cal the
attention OF the intslliselt farmers and
gsziers Of the United s ates to the above
