at all a large majority of the experiments
made to determine this point clearly show
that fine foods do not to any material extent,

What breeding will do for animals is seen
In the following interesting pictures They
show the change that has taken place during
the development of the Jersey. nee hun.
dreds of years the little cows from the Chan
mel islands have been famous butter makers
The main islands are Jersey, Guernsey, Al
derney and Sark When the breed was in
troduced into this country some thirty five
years ago it was the fashion to call them
"Aderneys." Now it is the fashion to call
them Jerseys"
They had been favorites on gent'emen's
farms in England previous to 1884. Then it
was decided by the Royal Jersey Agricul-
tural society to begin to breed them for
beauty. Most organizations must have the
word "roya" tackled to them in Great Brit
ain, it seems, or they won't 60 The lords
and gentlemen farmers resolved TO recon-

The fashionable colors Were solid fawn,
silver gray and pale lemon fawn. In 1884
two typical COWS were elected to breel from,
as showing nearest perfection of that shape
and color desired to he reproduced. Paint
ings were made of the two animals. One of
them was the cow whose picture is here
given. The other animal is the most famous
fashionable butter maker of these days,
Mary Anne, of st. Lambert. The longer
body straight line of the back and more
deerlike head are some of the points Of differ
ence Since 1884 the fashion has been to
breed for color and shape. The recent but
ter making exploits of the breed, however,
have knocked the breath out of the color and
shape BOOM The craze is now for butter
makers, be form and color what they will.
So possibly the next generation will revert

Professor J. l. Buld. of the Iowa Agri-
cultural college, writes: Mr.. j. b. Spaldng,
of Springfield. HIS, has pracic"d rim ing for
fruit for number of years past HIS plan
at first was to giriie every other tree in
thickly plrnted young orchards but he now
rings all the trees He rings the trees in the
latter part of April which time with us in
the central dis riot of Iowa would be from
the 10Th to the 18th of May. He takes Off d
ring of bark from the stem one half inch in
width entirely around the tree, taking care
not to in jure the cambium layer un Ter the
bark. He says: "If hard winters will kill
the trees, much the more necessity for
getting them to bear when young, hence |
begin to girdle when the trees are but six
years old. So far have found no harm re-
sulting from the process. 1t sets them to
bearing at once, and they bear full, too"
With thickly planted orchards, where the
alternate trees will soon have to lie removed,
Mr.. Spalding's plan may be safely tried. To
illustrate its working on thrifty young trees:
Two years ago, on the l0,h of May, was
looking at some vigorous Tetofsky trees, on
rich soil, which had not yet borne n dozen
apples, though over four inches in diameter
of stem. | commended ringing, and at
once the owner pulled out his knife and went
at them, taking of ring of bark nearly an
inch in width. OF course this did not check the
ascent of water and nutrment from the roots
in the newer wood, and it did not prevent
the perfect assimilation of the sap in the
leaves Yet it prevented-measurably -the
formation OF new deposits of wood growth
below the ringing, Hence the tendency in
the top to that ripaned state of wood which

1t is at once apparent that kainit would be

than almost any other crop grown on the
farm, it does not seem to need heterogeneous
manures. Potash and lime are the elements

best way in which to supply the lime is by
applying gypsum; and can there DO any
