At the February meeting OF TIE
Farmers Club of Fulton township,
Lancaster county, the question.
@What viii the coming COW be Tor

tiIlien Brown. After Nj. Brown had
read a short article from an agrieul-
tural paper in favor Of the Aver
shires.
Isaac Bradley rejoined that he
could not say what the coming COW
would be, but at present the Jersys
were in the lead

seys are in the front now But

Solomon L. Gregg thought that 1t
il a question whether the Jerseys
are worth the prices they are BRING
ing. Excitement had much TO DO
with IL
Josiah Brown said, no doubt the
JERSEYS are good mixers, but they
would not pay their price in q life
time. Scrub cows viii make as
much butter il they have the same
usage. The price must come down
before people generally viii get
them.
Day Wood had an idea that the
Jersey would not be the coming COW.
He did not think that they would
stand our climate well. We might,
perhaps, get up a cross that would
combine their good qualities with q
better size. For milk our common
COWS excel the Jerseys. A cross
with them might produce a better
COW. Our COWS are no better than
they were twenty-five years ago. BY
careful selection and breeding we
might make a better COW than the
Jersey. Jersey breeders have beer
breeding Tor points and lett the pro
ducuon OF butter out of the ques
ton.
Z. II. Haines thought hat The
Jersey was ;hecoming COW, and that
the high price was one of the thingl
that was going to introduce them
Ii was human nature for a man u
want one because his neighbor had
one. There was not so much mill

Preparing Trees for Planting.

DR.. George Thurber gives yalra-
bic advice on tree planting ID the
American A~glcglhria.
Nurservmen, wkile they some
times deprive a tree Of q large share
OF is roots by hurried and careless
digging. usually send the purchaser
the full quantity of branches. The
inexperienced tree planter judges OF
the quality OF a nursery tree by the
size Of the top. When he Is told
that al least One-half OF the top
should be cut away before the tree
Is planted. he thinks he knows bet
ter. and sets out the trees Just as
they came from the nursery. The
many poor, struggling orchards all
over the country bear witness TO the
general neglect Of the proper prepa-
ration OF the tress before planting.
A novice has a great reluctance to
use a knife on his trees. 1t seems a
great waste TO cut off any part Of
the trees that ne has bought, though
he gives hardly a thought to the
roots he has paid for, and which are
left In the soil of the nursery. 1t Is
within bounds TO say that even
when a tree is carefully dug, at least
one-half of It's small fbrous roots
the really useful and feeding
roots-are broken and cut off in the
operation. This would be Of little
consequence were the top Of the tree
reduced in the same proportion.
Even those who have given but lit
tie study to the growth OF plants
will admit, in a general way, that
the root takes up water from the
soil, and that the leaves evaporate
the water thus taken up. Ii should
need no argument TO show that II

Two Irishmen came to a guide
post on a wide and desolate plain.
1t was getting dusk, and the un-
fenced trails were scarcely distin-
guishable. Five miles to Glenair-
lie" read one of them, putting his
face close to the board.
"But which av them goes to Glen
airlie, sure9" asked his companion
looking obviously at the two trails.
After a few moments meditative
silence, the first Irishman replied:
"We can try one av thin, and then
the other"
But how viii we find the way

Sure we willtake the boord along

And 50 the two pilgrims lighted
their pipes and marched cheerfully

them.

II is surprising how many farmers
there are who take no more notice
Of their live stock than to get all the
work they can out Of their oxen and
horses, and milk and butter from
their COVE. A kind word or a caress
in never bestowed upon a single oc-
cupant of the barn. Now we hold
this TO be in a measure wrong; true
a farmer may have a fine lot of cat
tie in excellent condition, providing
he gives them 3 sufficient supply OF
nutritious food, withiut any of this
extra kindness, but at the same time
kindness to dumb animals costs
nothing, while it is greatly apprecia-
ted by the animals on whom it is
bestowed. Teach your animals to
love you, teach them TO follow you
instead of fleeing from you, have a
name for every member fthe barn.
yard. and a kind word for every
one. Our cattle department de-
ponds upon receiving a hearty good
morning from US when we go TO the
barn just as much as n of our
household, and in their mute way
show that they appreciate it, too.
We have no animals on the place
that our children cannot approach
and caress whether ia the stable or
in the yard, and both have a mute
satisfaction in being thus friendly I;
then, too, there are advantages be-
sides those of mere satisfaction.
Young steers are far more easily
managed when thus tame and docile
than when wild and frightened at
the approach of any one: it is so
much work to overcome the fear ola
pair of wild steers as il is to break in
a pair that are tame and docile at
the commencement, and the same
thing applies to breaking young
colts. Farmers are often far too cha
~ OF this kindness to their domestic
animals. Just let such change blame
and scolding for kind words and
~caresses, and they will be surprised
to see how quick the wild ones will
become tame and doeile, and find
that it will pay them well in the
end.

The Turtle Industry.

Few people have any adequate
idea OF the quantity of turtles which
are consumed in this country. New
York furnishes the chief market and
they come into that port every year
from 10000 TO 10000 ponds.
Philadelphia comes next after New
York, and Baltimore stands third on
the list. these two cities taking to-
gether probably $1,000 pounds, while
Boston has never developed any great
fondness for this article Of food, and
is satisfied with about 1900 pounds
a year. Turtles are most plentiful
during the summer, and not seldom
are brought to New York in larger
quantities than the market demands,
in which case they are placed in
floating car in the slip behind Full
ton market and fed until they are
wanted. While confined they are
given cabbages, lettuce, Gel ery-tops
and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, this latter
article Of diet being the turtles spe-
cial weakness. They can only be
kept in the river, however, during
the summer months and September,
as a temperature below forty degrees
kills them. Turtles vary in size
from a few pounds TO over aquater OF
a ton, the largest ever brought to
the New York market having weigh
ed $50 pounds. The sizes most in
demand, however, are from fifty to
seventy-6ve pounds, and the custom
ers are almost invariably hotel and
restaurant keepers. In Philadelphia
there is more demand for small tur-
ties, weighing from six to twelve
pounds, for family use. The price
varies from twenty cents in winter to
as low as ten cents in summer.
The turtles sold in New York
come for the most part from Key
West Another source of supply is
the Bahama Islands. the turtles from
which region are rather small but
toothsome, seldom weighing above
100 pounds, and averaging about
twenty-five. The largest turtles ar,
found in the Spanish Main, but theil
flesh is apt to be coarse, and they
are, therefore, not usually considered
so desirable as those from Bahama.
