don't deny that the JERSEYS will
make more butter from given amount

The Holstein skinned milk. con-
tainlng as it does a large per
cent. of case in and other
solids, is still worth half the price of
new milk for making cheese and feeding
young stock, and will largely help to-
wards the keeping of the cows. Calves
can be fatted on skinned Holstein
milk. a high authority states that he
has produced growth of 100 pounds
per month on calves fed only on Hol-
stein skim milk after the cream had all
been taken off. 1t is notorious that the
small amount OF skinned milk left from
the light yield of noted butter breeds is
feeding young stock. In all the leading
cheese districts the factorymen are In.

have been told the following eco
nomical, profitable and prolific way of |
raising large quantity of Strawberries
on small piece of ground. 1t is es-
pecially adapted to thickly settled |
places where there is room for only q /
small garden or none at all.
Take an ordinary sized barrel with |
only one head in it. bore fve-eighths |
holes through the slaves around it four |
inches from the bottom, aobut three |
inches apart, then another low four |
inches above them like the first and so
Oh to the top of the barrel. Punch a
stove pipe full of holes and place it up
right in the centre of the barrel and fill |
t with good manure. Fill the barrel
With good soil to the first row of holes,
then put the roots of strawberry vine
through each hole, leaving the vine to
lang outside; then fill to the next row
Of holes and set the vines as at the first,
and so continue to the top of the barrel.
70 irrigate the vines, pour water into
he top of the stove pipe when neces-
'ary. The barrel can be turned to the
Jun as occasion may require and the
zines can easily be protected from the
rosts. l have been assured by one
Who claims to know, that as many Der
les can be raised in this way on one

way on square rod of ground.-EE.

continued care in handling. A fast
walk in horse is the most valuable gait
