The Jersey Cow.

wish, says writer in the Breeders
Gazette, to say word about the Jersey
COW as butter COW. They are not what
most farmers want on account OF their
size. l believe they are the greatest of
butter cows from the amount of milk
they give, and have so proved them.
selves in public tests. In 1887 at the
Iowa State fair Jersey COW owned by
Charles Holmes in public test with
several other cows gave in one day %
pounds of milk upon which she won firsA
premium over all breeds, and several
Holstein-Friesian cows gave on the same
day IS to 70 pounds Of milk. The fam
Gus cow Mink was beaten in a public
test on the Iowa State fair grounds by a
Jersey COW. If we would deal fairly and
give every breed its due the Jersey COW
is not to be scoffed at. One thing is true
of Jersey COW and that is there is nc
need Of spy-glass to discover the cream
on her milk, which can not be said OF
some other breeds. The Jersey does not
need to be fed milk to produce butter
fats.
have read Of herdsmen being seen
feeding cows milk to produce butter
fat, but am Of the opinion that they
labored under mistaken idea: my OBJ.
servation is that milk produces more
milk, but of much poorer quality. And
l believe those public and private tests
are not of any value whatever to the
general public, and have tendency to
make rogues Of once honest men.

II fall is selected, the earlier the sowing
can be done after the usual summer
droughts are past the better-say the
very last of August or early September
The first work is to get the ground
graded according to the location, or the
fancy of the owner. The whole should
be plowed well and evenly.
If the subsoil is at all hard, let sub
soiler follow the surface pillow.
Harrow until the whole surface Is
smooth. Use only the best and clean
est seed that a reliable scotsman can
sell you. A quart will sow about three
hundred square feet, and from five to
seven bushels will be required for an
acre. If possible never use stable
manure on lawn, as there is always
| more or less weed seed in it. The best
possible fertilizer to use in the beginning
is heavy dressing of ground bone say
from one to one and one-half tons pei
acre. This will not only start tbs new
growth we'll. but will last fox several
years. Ground tobacco stems is the
best top dressing that can be given, and
used each season in connection with the
bone dust in the beginning will insure
a strong, even growth.
The only way to get rid of the trouble
some weeds is to cut them off below the
surface as fast as they appear.
The renovating Of an old lawn tina
has been worn out by neglect or othel
cause is generally unsatisfactory worl
unless the whole is torn up and treated
as If new. But if this can not be con
veniently done old lawn may be mucl
improved by running over with ligh
harrow or rake, stirring the soil as mucl
as possible without injuring the roots
Then about half the quantity of seet
recommended for new lawns should b.
sown and the surface again light,
stirred and thoroughly rolled.
Moving should be commenced as sool
as the grass has made growth Of tw
or three inches in the spring and con
tinued every week or ten days unit
growth stops in the fall. When mowe'

any case to roll lawn each spring, a
this firms the soil when the frost ha
loosened it and leaves the surfac

Farmers Should Raise More of 1t - It's
Value in Keeping Up the Fertility of
the Farm.
The growing and selling of grain from
the farm is gradually selling the fertil-
ity, and in majority of cases it is only
a question of time when the amount of
available plant food demanded by these
crops will have become SO nearly eX-
hausted as to render it difficult to secure
Field and Stockman. the grain, instead
of being sold, is fed out to stock on the
farm, making, saving and applying all
the manure possible, considerable help
can be secured in keeping up the fer
tility.
Following rotation of crops lessons
the wearing out of the soil, because diff
ferent crops require different elements
of plant food, and some crops not only
take elements not used by other plants,
but aid to make available other elements
that are in the soil but are not in an
available condition. But grass for all
kinds of stock is one of the best and
cheapest foods that can be secured,
whether used as pasture, as soiling
crop, or as hay after cutting and curing.
1t proves good crop in making up ro-
tation. 1t is good with grain in making
complete and economical rations; hence
more or less of the farm should be in
grass. Taking the average farm where
system of rotation is carried on and
where the products raised are fed out to
good, thrifty stock, One-half the acreage
of the farm should be into grass OF
course care should be taken to secure a
good, even stand so that the best profits
may be realized.
In many cases it would be a positive
benefit to the farm to seed from one
third to one-half the acreage to pasture
grasses and manure as much of the
balance as possible, put in the best
possible filth, use good seed, and give
thorough cultivation so as to increase
yield. Grow larger crops on less acre.
