AGRICULTURAL.
The Dairy Business OF the Country.
III


The magnitude of the dairy business is
hardly appreciated by any save those who
are engaged in it. At a recent meeting of
the Erie Milk Producers Association, held
at Middleton, N. Y, The following interest
ing facts and figures were brought to light
There is nearly $2,000,O00,O00 invested in
the dairying business in this country. That
amounts to almost double the money invest
ed in banking and commercial industries. It
is estimated that it requires Il, 000, 600, cows
to supply the demand for milk and it's pro-
ducts in the United States To feed these
cows 6O,000,000 acres of land are under cul-
tivation. The agricultural and dairy machi-
merry and Implements in use are worth over
$2,00O,0 900. The men employed in the bust
ness number 100, 900, and the horses nearly
100000 Tue COWS and horses consume
annually &c, 900 tons of hay, nearly co.
100000 bushels of corn meal, about the same
amount of oatmeal, 275, 060, 900 bushels of
oats. 100000 bushels of bran and 100000
OOO bushels OF corn, to say nothing of of the
brewery graiDs and questionable feed of va.
rlous kinds that are used to a great extent.
IL costs $500 600 to feed these cows and
horses. The average price paid to laborers
necessary in the dairy business is probably
$50 month, amounting to $l68 900 coo a
year. The average COW yields about $50
gallons of milk year, giving total product
OF otoU,UUOOOO gallons. Twelve cents a
gallon is fair price to estimate the value
of this milk at, a total return to the dairy
farmer of SSl0,00O,000 Fifty per cent, Of
the milk is made into cheese and butter. It
takes II pounds of milk TO make one pound
of butter, and about 10 pounds of milk to
make pound of cheese. There is the same
amount Of nutrition in three ard a half
pounds of milk that there is in one pound
of beef. A fat steer furnishes 50 per cent.
of homeless beef, but it would require about
24,000,00O steers, weighing 1900 pounds
each, to produce the same amount of nutn-
ton as the annual milk product does.

The Origin ID tI,e Potato.

The potato, originally South American
plant was introduced to Virginia by Sif
John Harvey in 1929, though it was un-
known in some counties in England hun
bred and fifty years later. In PENNSYLVANIA,
potatoes are mentioned very soon after the
advent of the Quakers; they were not among
New York products in 1895, but in 1775 we
are told of eleven thousand bushels grown
on one sixteen-acre patch in this province.
Potatoes were served, perhaps as an exotic
rarity, at a Harvard installation dinner in
1907; but the plant was only brought into
culture in New England at the arrival of the
Presbyterian immigrants from Ireland in
17l9. Five bushels were accustomed large
crop of potatoes for a Connecticut farmer;
for it was held that, if a man ate them every
day, he couldn't live beyond seven years

Wow 70 Pluck Poultry.

journal Of Horticulture: I have known
persons on market days to go out and kill
twelve or fifteen fowls, and to bring them
into a room where there would be half a
dozen women and boys pulling few feath-
ars at time, between the thumb and fore
finger, TO prevent tearing them. Now for
the benefit OF such / will give our plan !:
Hang the fowl BIS the feet by small cord !;
then with small knife, give one cut across
the upper jaw, opposite the corners of the
mouth; after the blood has stopped running
stream, place the point of the knife in the
groove in the upper part of the mouth, run
the blade up into the back part of the head,
which will cause twitchng of the muscles
Now is your time, for every feather yields
as if by magic, and there is DO danger of
tearing the most tender chick Before he
attempts to flap you can have him as bare as
the das he came out of the egg.

MINIMIZING Frais.

The value of stable or yard manure for
fruit is becoming more and more appreciat-
ed. Autumn is the best time to make the
application, and if the dressing is left on the
ground all winter, the richer ana soluble
parts will be carried down into the soil, and
the fbrous portions. from which the richer
parts have been washed, will remain as a
winter-mulch. A little heap of manure at
the foot of the stem will be of no use; it
should spread as far as the roots extend,
which, on each side, are at least equal to the
height of the tree. Generally, therefore, the
whole ground is to be covered broadcast.
D not make the common miStaks of manuT-
Ing heavily after years of neglect, but apply
moderate quantities annually. This treat
