The Cow is Queen.

A few years ago many people stood
ready to claim that cotton is king, indeed
there are many gasping slaves to-day
who ella m the same thing Statistics are
abundant by means of which this claim
can be in part at least substantiated, but
very few people seem DESTROYS of claim
ing that King Cotton ever did much to
improve society, education, or condescend
to fight against such vulgar thing as a
mortgage.
Cotton may be king or not, Just as peo-
pie care to think. We don't believe he
Is, but we do believe that the good old
COW is queen, and that with a gentle and
royal purpose she is seeking to build up
the lands that the old monarch has vast
ed. There is very little about the old
cow. She steps slowly and clumsily
about her business, but she makes the
business pay well. She plods along in
heat or cold, wet or dry, eating what is
given her, feeling interest enough in the
family to look out for the daily needs
under circumstances that would discour-
age any other living creature; and when
fed and cared for as she should be she re-
spends like queen. She should be
crowned with new milking pail and an
extra feed of meal. The good old COW
has paid off more mortgages and paid for
more farms than any other known pro-
duction.

The SUN AS A SoPoRIFIc -Sleepless
people-and there are many of them in
America-should court the sun. The
very worst soporifo is laudanum and the
very best is sunshine Therefore it is
plain that the poor sleepers should pass
as many hours of the day in the sunshine
and as few in the shade as possible. The
injurious effect of shade is very notice
able in plants growing in secluded places
and ladies who are accustomed to carry
ing sunshades. The invigorating power
of sunlight is infinite; and he whose
skin is tawny seldom requires a pill.

Pruning Apple Trees.

Pruning apple trees is a necessary evil,
and should be avoided as far as practicable.
If the tree from the first has been proper
ly looked after, very little pruning will
ever be required. Such branches or buds
as would give the tree an undesirable
shape, or which would cross other
branches or crowd other branches, should
be removed. Frequent inspection during
the growing season is required in order
that those buds or young shoots which
would interfere with the form desired
may be removed with the thumb and
finger. In this way the removal of large
limbs in subsequent years will be avoided,
and the trees saved from the danger at
tending such removal. In regard to the
matter of pruning, Prof. Maynard few
years since very sensibly remarked 1t
is very doubtful if we can improve upon
natures method in this matter. A tree
growing out In the open field, fully ex-
posed to the sunlight and air, naturally
takes fine form, and, if in good soil,
grows vigorously, and bears abundantly.
Most of our orchards are planted too
close in the first place; then, to let in the
sunlight and air, large limbs are cut out
from the centre, and the wounds made
left exposed, decaying in a few years.
This practice of cutting out the central
branches to let in the light is all wrong.
Branches grow best in the centre of the
tree, because here they find the most con-
genial shelter from the suns rays. Cut
away the branches with their foliage
which shelter these roots, and they cease
to grow, and the long bare branches ex-
posed to the scorching sun during the
summer, and continued freezing and thaw
ing in winter, becomes much injured. If
the time now expended in annual prun-
ing were devoted to the care and atten-
ton Of the soil, our orchards would be
much more healthy and productive. The
practice of removing nearly all of the
top Of the tree when it is grated, leav-
ing the limbs exposed to the hot sun, is
very hazardous proceeding, and is fre-
quently followed by the loss of the tree
Very few limbs should be removed from
a tree in any one season. "-Nel0 England

Feeding Cattle.

It has been claimed that the methods
of breeding and feeding cattle have been
so much improved of late years that the
period of maturity has been fastened
more than one-half. That is, sheep or
pig which matured at three years, or a
steer which was ready for slaughter at
five years formerly, is now ready for the
butcher at less than half these ages
Pigs are said to be ready for pork at nine
months, wethers for mutton at twenty
months, and two year old steer is ready
for the block at that age. 1t is to be
feared that these claims are greater than
can be Justly allowed. No doubt, some
animals by excessive forcing are made as
fat and reach as heavy a weight in these
premature ages as others used to do in
twice the time, but it is question if this
forcing is profitable either to the feeder
or the consumer. On the one hand, the
animal is forced to consume as much food
IN two years as was formerly spread over
four years, so that on the whole there is
no gain but in time, while on the other
hand the consumer has very immature or
half-grown meat, which is devoid of flavor
and nutritive quality, and the meat is
overloaded with fat, which is waste
Pnysiologically, it is matter of doubt if
the muscular growth of an animal can
really be fastened by any process of feed
ing. Fat can be produced, no doubt, but
fat is diseased condition of the system,
and an excessively fat animal would soon
die under continued feeding. But if we
examine the meat of one OF these young,
over-grown animals it is found to be in
very great disproportion to the fat. 1t
is quite common, for instance, for the
nine months old pigs which weigh 800
pounds to be turned wholly into the lard
kettle because the few pounds of flesh
under the fat is not salable or usefu, as
TODD On the whole, it certainly does APP
pear as if we had carried the forcing
system of feeding to an Improbable ex-
treme. Every year the losses of swine
by disorders clearly. traceable to over
feeding increases In number, and although
we are told that the dread diseases have
been overcome and have disappeared, yet
the feeding season no sooner begins again
when the hog cholera breaks out as plenti-
fully as at any time before 1t is ques-
ton if we can safely follow English pre-
cedents in this respect of forcing animals
to prematurity. Certainly, if we are to
suffer the pains and penalties, the dis
eases and losses among our live stock,
which English farmers are complaining
of, it is very clear that we cannot afford
to do it, and had better make haste more
slowly.-NeW York Times.
