also noticed that the bees not only
worked on it continuously, but all the
day from morn till night. 1t is we'll
known fact that bees do not usually
work on common buckwheat after noon
Whether this pcculiarity was owing to
the variety or to the season, 1 do not
know. We have tested the japan
buckwheat for griddle cakes, and we
all pronounce it superb.
The above was furnished the
Country Gentleman by Prof Cook,
of the Michigan Agricultural College.
Supplementary to the above we will
mention that Mr.. W. T. Weldon, who
resides about four miles from Rising
Sun, sowed small quantity of Japan
Buckwheat last season from which he
raised five bushels He confirms the
statement that the variety is a great
yielder and the quality of the flour
superior.

but IL quarts day at maturity yet
she maintained good flow for SO many
months that I am satisfied she gave
close to 5000 quarts between calvings.
In my experience, it is exceptional to
have COW show disposition to 60 dry

''It seems peculiarly appropriate that
the Jersey should be accepted as the
family COW. She is the family or vii
lage COW on her native island. The
native breeders can hardly be called
farmers, with their little land holdings
of five or six acres each. On these
little patches the cattle are tethered
and treated much as we treat the viii

Good Gar den Vegetables.

The Ideal Cauliaower has again, this
season, shown itself to be the most de-
sinble, earliest, and, all things consid-
cred, he best variety in cultivation.
For a>Cabbage, both for early and
late use, toc>wuch can scarcely be said
in favor of Neriety called All Sea-
sons. Though not the earliest variety,
it comes into use soS2 after the earliest,
and keeps well into thA winter. 1t is
quite sure to head; heads>pf medium
size, roundish oval, solid, AID of fine
quality.
Among Beets we have good NSord
to say of Bastian's Early Turnip and>
Dewing's Turnip Beet. They are both
excellent varieties, and growing in favor.
The Chantenay Carrot appears to be
the most desirable of the stump-rooted
varieties. 1t is of good size, good color
of good quality for the table, and as it is
quite productive, it is really good for
any purpose.
The Gironde, or Ox.heart, Carrot
grows shorter and thicker than the
above, though not quito equal to the
Chautenary in quality.
The Golden Heart Celery has main
tanned its high reputation the past sea-
son, and may be regarded as the best
selfbleaching variety. As its name
implies, the leaves and leaf.stalks are a
rich creamy shade; solid, crisp, tender,
and Of excellent flavor. 1t is good

There is world of truth in this
paragraph written by farmer. which
We clip from an agricultural jonrnal.
"We farmers as class are the most
intensely partisan of any people in the
country except the politicians them
selves. The railroads, the manufac-
turer, the mechanic, the liquor dealer,
all have been known to bolt their ticket
but the scheming politician knows
where to find the farmer every time,
and he usually finds in him a willing
tool to further his selfish plans even
through those plans are in direct OPP
position to the farmers interest; for it
would hurt the party, you know. to go
back on only part of the ticket."

Better Prices in Future.

A Chicago live stock paper speaking
of the beef market and the large
amount of stock of poor quality thrown
on the market says: The vast prop
ortion of this stock, too, was utterly
unfit for market. Now this immense
flood of stock must necessarily have
affected the price of all stock. Cattle
are being reduced in the country, we
believe, below what the country should
carry. If we are correct in that, next
year must witness boom in the mar.
ket for meat producing animals. We
believe that we can afford to shout
over the prospect.

How to Breed the Dairy Cow.

Prof. Roberts. of Cornell University,
in the course of his address at the
Herkimer, N. Y, Farmers Institute,
on "The Dairy Cow; How to Breed
and How to Feed Her." made the fol-
lowing excellent points:
"There are 1,534,0OO milch COWS in
New York. The dairymen tell me
that seven-eights of them are dry.
We will feed them $50 days without
any return; the food will not cost less
than 10 cents day, and 10000 men
must be employed in the care of the
COWS. This makes the cost of winter
ing our dry milch COWS $20,000.0O0.
Dairymen, can you afford to pay 5000
apiece for the privilege of acting as
dry nurses to your dry cows? There is
a gentleman in this audience who tells
me that his cows are MIXED the year
around. A New England paper states
that the cows Of that section pay the
farmer only $22 so per year; this
mans cows average him $50. 1t re-
quires thought and much perseverance
to bring your dairy to an $50 standard
but who would not attempt it?
The first thing to do next summer is
to ascertain the exact amount of milk
your cows are giving; next fall you will
fatte n one.third OF those COWS. Tnen
buy bull from family of COWS that
are bred up to an $50 standard; breed
him to your $25 cows, and the average
calf will make $52 COW; continue this
wedding and breeding, and you will
soon have an $50 herd. t here is no
sense in putting good COW into poor
stable, so the next thing to do, dairy
men, is to remodel the old barn. Bring
the horse b rn, the sheep barn, and the
cattle barn together OF the three sides
nf a square; knock out the floors; take
off the roofs and remove the sidines
from the inner sides of the barns. Put
one roof over all and lay the stable
floor upon the ground. Line the inside
of the stable with old siding and fiji!
the space in the wall with straw
"How shall we feed the cows? Well,
how would you feed man? Would you
put indigestible and disgusting food
before him? Feed cows with the same
brains you use in the preparation of
your own food. Give them something
that is appetizing, which, nine times
out of ten. means digestible food, In
figuring the cost of food you should |
never forget its value as fertilizer. A
ton of cotton seed meal is worth $2S as
a fartilizer to spread broadcast on your
fields. l have just purchased a carload
at S22,5O per ton; if this be fed to milk
COWS they will take out only 20 per
cent of the fertilizing elements and
their excrement will be worth all the
food cost.
There is another point left that I
want to emphasize. The milch COW
must have an abundance of water, and
hope you will not oblige her to drink
if from the ice.cold brook. 1t is
cheaper to warm the water with coal in
a heater than with hay in a COW. Heat
the water to 600 and give it to your
COWS in the barns.'

Japan Bdckwheat.

There is much to be said in favor of
growing buckwheat as farm crop.
First, the time for preparing the land
for the crop-late June0comes between
planting and haying, and is period of
comparative leisure, and SO buckwheat
may we'll come in as part of any well
regulated rotation. If the manure is
kept well down and spread in winter,
as it should be, and the road work is
done by an expert, as it certainly should
be, each man paying cash tax for it
there will never be any difficulty in
finding time in June to get the soil in
fine condition for this crop. This is no
mean argument in favor of buckwheat
as farm crop.
Again the production of buckwheat
may serve as one ofihe best insecticides
This seems to be crop that is not only
dl>tastetul to insects, but positively
harmful to them One of the most
serious insect enemies to nearly all our
most valued crops is the wire worm of
an elater beetle This grub lives and
leeds on the roots of plants for three
years. Thus it often does terrible dam.
age to corn, potatoes and other crops.
The only known remedy, aside from
the very expensive one Of digging out,
is to sow the land to buck wheat. This
seems to free the land irem the pest
This, then, is no slight argument in
favor of growing this valuable crop.
Once more, buck wheat is a profitable
crop. Buckwheat cakes are luxury,
and once tasted, they are ever after IN
demand. If rightly made. they are
very wholesome. Thus health and
pleasure combine to welcome buck
wheat cakes to the breakfast table of
fall, winter and spring. 1t is not al
ways easy to get good buckwheat flour.
More and more then will there be
demand for buckwheat. l believe
when we take expense and all into con
siderrtion, buckwheat will often pay
better profit than will wheat. But
aside from this direct profit buckwheat
has an indirect value. 1t is an excellent
honey plant, and thus its production
adds to the profits of the bse-ke eper,
and just so much to the wealth Of the
country.
Japanese buckwheat is just now at
tracting much attention, and many are
inquiring as to Its value. The past
season have tried it, and can recon-
mend it very heartily. True, l had to
pay SO per bushel for seed, but L be-
lieve it paid even at that The berry
is very large, and the plant is astonlsh-
iugly productive. All who have ex-
amined the plants say they have never
seen anything to compare with it. To
add to the value of my experiment
sowed one.half my field the first OF June
and the balance the first Of July, Thus
L prolons sed the season of bloom. great.

The reported revolution in Brazil was nat

The reported revolution in Brazil was nat
urally at first supposed to be only scare for
the purpose OF influencing the speculative mar
kets in this country. The coincidence in time
and terms of the dispatches received by promi-
nent merchants in New York city yesterday
lent color to such theory, especially as the
messages seemed to have been sent SO that, if
they had escaped all delays, they would have
caused a stampede on the coffee exchange dur
ing the last hour of the day. But the accounts
received in London appear to be bona fide, and
leave little doubt of the truth of the main fact,
although the extent and probable duration Of
the revolt are left to pure surmise.
The only really surprising feature Of the
news is the fact that Dom Pedro is still ON the
throne. He has been a wise, benignant and
universally popular monarch, liberal in his
views, and generous in his treatment Of every
thing that made for the material, intellectual
and moral progress of Brazil 1t has often
been prophesied that he would be the last en-
peror, and some have gone SO far as to predict
that he would abdicate in order to become the
first president of the republic. His daughter,
the Princess Isabel, Countess d'Eu, is not re-
garded at all with the same favor. In her
blood runs preponderating strain of Portu-
guese conservatism, while her marriage has
added to the influence OF this an element Of
Bourbon bigotry and obstinacy. Under her
reign the people have felt that they would have
10 inspiration to improvement, for the dy-
nastic interests would overshadow all others in
the policies of the government. For that rea-
son it not generally expected that the en-
pire would survive its present head. The NUT
terings of discomfort, from which future trouble
was apprehended, have been loudest in some
of the southern provinces, which would make
Rio naturally the first point of attack.
