Forests and Malaria.

The astonishing and alarming in
crease of malaria in New England of
late years is attributed by the Maine
Farmer to the reckless destruction of
forests in this country.
We cut The above item from a New
York paper. We very much doubt if
the brainy and wide-awake agricultural
editor of the Maine Farmer ever made
that statement. There is an amazing
confusion in the public mind in regard
to " the destruction of forests " in New
England, which seems to be universally
COMPOUNDED with the removal of valu-
able timber from the forests. If every
tree fit for saw-logs, or any other ex-
listing wood manufacture, were to be at
once removed from our New England
forests, the extent of forest area would
be but slightly reduced. A forest is a
forest, and just as much of forest,
from the sanitary point of view, when
it contains only trees too crooked, too
knotty, too old or too young for lum-
Der, as when one-quarter of its trees
(Which is a large proportion in New
England) are good lumber. In fact,
the thinning of our forests, when prop

This mixture will give pasture feed
from early spring to late autumn, or
nearly six months. The meadow fes-
cue he pronounces one of the best, if
not the best, pasture-grass. The meadow
foxtail is valuable for its earliness,
orchard grass for its continuous growth,
which must be as continuously fed.
The first year they must not be fed, but
moved often; had cut a pasture five
times the year it was seeded. The
second year one acre had summered
two good COWS in milk, and another
had kept seven young store cattle.
On such pastures Mr.. Brown finds
that beef can be fed at good profit.
The feeding experiments at the college
farm have now been carried on for a
period of ten years. The beef animals
being fed for the English market are
usually steers under two years old,
which are sold at thirty months old or
under; young animals there are, as else
where, being found much the most
profitable to feed. From record kept
during these ten years it has been
found that while the cost per pound of
added live weight has ranged from eight
and one-half to fourteen cents when
made on hay, roots and various kinds
of grain fed in winter, and five cents
on timothy and clover pasture, it has
cost on such permanent pasture of
mixed grasses only two cents perpound,
or Just one-seventh as much as the most
costly winter feed of hay, roots, bran
and corn. 1t was also found by the
record that the daily increase on per-
manent pasture was much greater than
when the animals were kept on moving
fields, and equalled the average increase
made from the best chosen winter ra-
tons of hay, grain and roots, the gain
per day on pasture being 2.05 pounds
in moving 1.15 pounds, and from the
average of eighteen different mixtures
of winter feed, 2.05 pounds. We give
these points from one of Brother
Cheever's editorials in the Neao England

Bogus Butter.

We notice with satisfaction that the
intelligently conducted Mirror and
Farmer has taken substantially the
same ground as ourself on this very i'm
portant question. 1t says:
d" What can be done and should be
done is to provide in some way against
peoples being swindled by getting but
terine when they have bought and paid
for genuine butter, and the sooner we
confine ourselves to this the better. Let
us admit that every person has per-
feet right to eat grease if he wants to;
that anybody who likes the business
may put up grease in any honest way
he chooses. but at the same time insist
that he shall not cheat us or anybody
else by selling it as butter. Upon this
ground farmers can stand and upon no
other"
There are quite number of writers
who fancy they are making themselves
solid with the farmers by extravagant
denunciations, and by proposing ex-
IRENE and absurd legislation against
these butter substitutes. But they very
much underrate the solid good sense of
the people. What is wanted is sound
and constitutional legislation which will
secure that nothing shall be sold as pure
butter which is not pure butter. This,
with sufficient money appropriation
to secure enforcement of the law, is all
that the dairymen ask for, because it is
all that they need. Good butter has
not been deprecated by this fraudulent
competition. 1t sells to-day for more
money, relative to the price of Other
commodities, than ever before.

Household Hints.

PARENTS should be very careful and
not let the rays of the sun shine directly
upon the faces of sleeping children.
Strong light is very injurious to the
eyes.
IT is not the large matters of the
household that worry the woman as
much as the little perplexities of every
day life; the washing, ironing, churn-
ing and baking are all expected, and
pass smoothly along, but the dust and
dirt often make the woman long to pitch
things out at the window.
A WRITER in the Boston Globe advo-
Gates smaller houses as means of light
ening household cares, and asks: "Why
is it that young couple will board con-
tentedly in two rooms for year, and
then think that nothing less than two
story-and-a-half house, with seven or
eight rooms, will answer their purpose?"
ALADY correspondent of an exchange
says to housewives: When waiting
for the men folks at noon, instead

erly practiced, is benefit to them, not
only as sources of lumber supply, but
as sanitary advantage. The rural
population of Maine, New Hampshire
and Vermont has not increased at all
in the last thirty years, and those states
have unquestionably less cleared land
than in 1850.
In regard to malaria, very little in
vestigation of the matter will demon
strate that the increase of malarial
disease in New England has kept very
even step, not with any decrease of
forest area, for there has been none,
but with the increase of manufacturing
industries upon our rivers and streams.
The construction of dams for power, and
for storage of water, has been greatly
extended, and just at the season when
the sun is hottest, and everything in
nature is in the best condition for the
development Of malaria, the decreased
flow of water leads to the drawing down
of mill-ponds and reservoirs, leaving
great areas of flowed land, rank with
decaying vegetable matter, bare to the
blazing suns of July and August-with
the natural consequence of vast in
crease of malarial disease.
1t is well known that the clearing of
uplands and the draining of the low
lands decreases malaria. The early
history of New England furnishes am
pie proof of this fact. 1t is curious
how a silly assumption like the one
above quoted, when once set ahoat,
will go the entire round of the press.
1t argues very little knowledge, and less
common sense, among the scissorers
of our newspaper offices.

Good Pasturage.

Agood pasture may come by accident,
on a naturally good grass soil, but as a
matter of fact few pastures come that
way. Nor can good pasture be pre-
served and maintained without constant
care and attention. Its pasturage is the
main stay of farm, yet how little at
tention is given by most of our farmers
to preserving and improving their pas
lures. One of the many titles to re-
spect as a farmer which belonged to
the late president of the Vermont
Dairyman's Association, Edwin d.
Mason, was the pride he had in his
pastures and the 'abor he bestowed
upon them. But lie was very much
alone in this. 1t is time that all our
Vermont farmers should wake up on
this matter. A Scotch Canadian, Will
lam Brown, professor of agriculture in
the Ontario Agricultural College, has
been lecturing the farmers of Con-
necticut on pastures at their board of
agriculture meetings, and he claims
that by proper management we may
have as good pastures in New England
as anywhere. But to do so we must
know how, and few men have yet been
found who were born with this knowl-
edge. AS rule, it must be acquired.
Mr.. Brown says that on his college
farm he can carry two COWS in milk to
the acre. Now, reader, don't throw
the paper down and say this is lie.
If you are reasonably modest you must
admit that some things have been done
that you never could do, and this may
be one of them. If so, wouldn't it be
worth while to know how? Mr.. Brown
thinks chance grasses are not always
those best for feed. He is certain that
timothy and clover alone will not make
good pasture. His formula for seeding
down permanent pasture to be sown
in spring after crop of potatoes is as
follows:

REPLY.--The apricot is fruit that
does not thrive anywhere on the At
lantic slope. Considering that it is so
closely related to the peach, this fact
seems very strange. We have peaches
in profusion, but probably not one per-
son in twenty in New England ever
tasted fresh apricot. They grow finely
in California, however, and very fine
canned apricots are now for sale in our
stores. The Siberian apricot Gotten
misnamed " Russian ~ is a distinct
species, with very small fruit, which
seems to succeed in Nebraska and Kan
sas, and may possibly be successfully
grown, and the size perhaps increased,
in New England 1t is about the size
of plum now, but woolly, like peach.
We do not think any mulberry is
hardy enough to stand our Northern
Vermont winters except the Russian,
which is more a shrub than a tree.
Seeding nulberries (and all of the
Russian sort offered for sale are seed
lings) vary as much as Seeding apples,
and probably not more than one in ten
would prove desirable. We consider
the mulberries as chiefly valuable for a
lawn tree. The fruit is attractive to
birds and, with the June Berry, is use
full for that purpose to those who are
fond of birds about the house.

How to Bring Up the Boys.

The subject under discussion has met
with few responses--much fewer than
l had hoped to see. Feeling how made
quate am in doing justice to the
subject, l have refrained, hoping to
hear from others. was interested in
the letter of r. A. F. If we would
teach our children we must answer
their questions; if we do not, we must
expect they will learn from others, and
it may not be an easy task to eradicate
the seed sown. 1t requires great deal
of "grace, wisdom and patience" to
bring up children in the way they
should CO." 1t is " line upon line and
precept upon precept." No particular
rules can be laid down to follow. In
family of children you will find no two
dispositions alike. Each one needs
different discipline. Happy is the
mother who can discern the nature of
each child and is capable of guiding it
Alright. In family of boys the respon-
sibility rests as much on the father as
on the mother. Many mothers teach
their children nothing but good, while,
through the neglect of the father, the
instruction seemeth as naught. One
great mistake of the father is, when
boys get beyond the control of the
mother, to allow them to disobey her.
If the father does his duty, boys will,
because they must be kind, respectful
and tender of mother. No parent, either
father or mother, should allow the child
to speak disrespectfully of the other.
If fathers will chew tobacco and smoke,
or drink cider or anything Intoxicating,
can mother, with any kind of reason,
teach boy that what papa does is
wrong? Doubtless many of you have
heard of the little boy who was attend
ing great feast with his father where
wine and water were served. When
the boy was asked which he would take,
he replied: /" will take what father
takes" The father heard it. He
thought he must be very careful if his
little boy was going to follow his exam
pie, and he said: 81 will take water
That was wise father. / have heard
of another couple who had three little
boys. The father occasionally smoked
One day, having a friend with him, he
bought bunch of cigars. Taking each
a cigar, they went out for smoke. The
mother thought it a bad example for
the boys. When the oldest boy asked
her if he could smoke, with fear and
trembling she said, " Yes" He lighted
cigar and went out. The others fol-
lowed suit, and the three little boys sal
before the astonished father, putting
away at their cigars. When the father
fully realized the situation, he said
Boys, if you will throw away your CT
CARS l will mine, and we will never
touch them again" There are very
few fathers who will make this sacrifice
for the young immortals growing w
around them, and so the weary, faith
full mother must toll on alone and see
the sweet lips and breath contaminated
with the fumes of tobacco and liquor
Toll on, weary mother; prayerfully
guide the little ones trusted to your care
in the paths of truth and virtue, and
even if they go astray in later years
they will never forget the early teach
ings of mother, the memory of which
may bring them back into pleasant
paths. X.
