be interesting to follow the course cocoa has
taken in England since lSS, when the duty,
which had been standing at Cd. per pound,
with an importation of under half million
pounds, was reduced TO I'd. per pound, and not
long after we find the Homeopathic doctrine of
medicine introduced into the Kingdom, and
that the use of cocoa was specially advocated
by physicians adopting that mode of practice.
soon after we find the first homeopathic

WHY nurrER DOES NOT lirEr.

j. 4. Fowler, Wayne County, N. Y,
desires advice how to prevent butter from
fading and losing its quality, but as we
are not informed how the milk was set,
the cream cared for, how long the cream
remains unchurned, ETC., our answer can
not be very definite
Il cannot be the feed, as butter color
is used; so the fading must be looked
after elsewhere. Ii the butter is packed
in small crooks, the glazing of the butter
may have been imperfect and the porous
material of the e-crock absorbed the finer
oils of the butter, and color along with
it. aud so bleach out a circle of butter
next TO the crock. That the butter gets
"salyeyN would indicate that the tenn
pcrature Of the cellar was subjected TO
great extremes, hot and cool, alterna-
ting. This would cause chemical change
To 30 on in the elements not butter, and
the heat would tend TO fuse or rather
cause the butter to lose its globular form
or granulation. BY some "ehance" the
silt may be charged with too much lime,
aud SO act upon the butter as to cause it
10 lose color.
From the fact that the butter is all
right when made, aud becomes unstable

GETTING RID OF QuAcK GRASS.

Quack grass, or witch grass, is some
thing not easily gotten r:d of. 1t may
well seem waste of labor TO plow and
cultivate this weed, for the more this is
done internationally the more it spreads.
Every root will grow and make a new
plant in the course of few years after it
has been nearly eradicated, being as bad
as ever. Yet continuous culture during
a single growing season will entirely de-
stroy it. The cultivation must be often
enough so that not a single spear Of the
grass reaches the surface. Where quack
grass has grown unmolested several years
1t is good plan to plow the piece just
deep enough to throw to the surface the
network of main roots which are found
exactly on the hard pan left by the keel
of the plow in previous years 1t is often
possible in this way, by careful plowing,
to throw most of the main roots on the
surface, where during the winter they
will freeze and dry so that they can be
raked up in winrows and burned. Con-
tlnuous cultivation with some hoed crop
will do the business in one season, though
to make sure that none escapes it is bet
ter to plant in hoed crops the second
year. Great care is needed to prevent
this plant spreading from one lot all over
the farm. 1t spreads by its roots, which
sometimes penetrate potatoes, and are
thus planted by careless farmers. It's
seed usually ripen in August, though we
have seen it ripened in July enough to
grow. Quack fields should not, there
fore, be sown with oats, as both ripen at
the same time.-Cowrier-JourRdl.

HARvEsrNe THn Arr1r oRor.

The gathering of fruit is at all times
an operation requiring care and tender
handling. In the case of apples, a
squeeze, or drop, hard enough to pro-
duce bruise, renders them unfit for
keeping purposes, on which much of
their value depends. There is
an additional reason for careful hand
ling the present season, owing to the
scarcity or the crop and the high price
of the fruit. In picking from the trees,
baskets with smooth bottoms should be
used, and the apples laid, not dropped
into them. BY rough handling of the
basket in the interior of tree or care
less movements Of the ladder around its
outside, careless picker can easily cause
more loss in an hour than his wages for
the entire day would be worth. The
same man or the same ones, where more
than one is required, should always re-
ceive the baskets and do the packing.
Place the first two rows stem end down
against the head to be taken out when
the barrel is opened for sale or use.
Uniformity in size should be observed as
closely as possible. 1t is always best to
make two qualities when barreling, and
the present season, when even very in
ferior apples will sell, the latter, if packed
at all, should make third class. Leaves
and twigs ought to be carefully ex-
cluded and the apples should be pressed
in, so there will be no shaking when
moving the barrels around after these
are filled and headed up.-NeO York

ELIMINATE TIE DRINK rAcron.

"Until the drink factor is eliminate from

tion of the wage question or any other ques-
ton that relates to the betterment of the
working classes. Any systom of social re
form that does not take full cognizance of
the vast and awful waste of property and
human life caused by the drink traffic fails
at the vital point and cannot succeed. As
long as the saloon and gin palaces crowd the

Sawdust is an excellent litter for duck
coops.
The income from sheep is always sure,
at least.
Now is the time to weed your flock, if
you have not done it before.

breeders worst enemy-roup.

bled.
Unless care is taken, hogs will begin
to fail now, unless extra feed is sup
piled.
Cocl, sweet water is one of the most
important factors in the health of the
flock.
In managing the teams it is best not to
use unnecessary words in giving COM
mands.
If you have not feed sufficient to keep
the pigs growing, some of them should
be sold.
Do you believe the health of a horse
largely depends upon the cleanliness of
his skinl
A dairy school in every State would
revolutionize the dairy and creamery
business.
Better throw the grain feed among
straw or leaves and make the fowls scratch
for their living.
A small lump of pine tar in the drink
ing water supplied to the fowls will be
found beneficial.
In purchasing a horse, always reject
one that is not good walker. 1t is an
important quality.
The failure to make sheep pay can, to
a considerable extent, be traced to failure
to give proper care.
Destroy old blackberry and raspberry
canes as fast as they become useless, and
thus destroy insects.
Two full crops-one of weeds and one
of grain or roots-cannot grow on the
same soil at the same time.
Set out groves of sugar maple as wind
breaks. In a few years you will have
both a windbreak and sugar orchard.
This is the month you will have to de-
termine what birds you will exhibit at
the coming shows. Make your entries
on time.
In many cases it will pay to purchase
and .eed bran, shipstuff and oil meal to
the growing pigs. 1t will be better and
cheaper than corn.
Sugar beets are counted worth ten dol
lars per ton for feeding, and they are as
easily grown as corn or potatoes. They
will keep as well as mangolds.
Blemishes, as well as diseases, are
often transmitted to offspring, and for
this reason it is very important to have
the sire, at least, as perfect as possible.
In these days the fascination of a
''pure bred" is not strong enough TO
loosen the purse strings of business
man unless you show that great profit
may be had.
Raising plug horses for market rarely
pays. They cost as much TO raise as the
better class and sell for much less. Re-
member this this fall when engaging a
horse for service.
It is when prices are low and the
margin of profits is small, that it is i'm
portant to keep a close account with each
class of stock in order to determine
which is the most profitable.
The idea of diluting milk, set TO
cream, with fifty to sixty per cent. o
water is fast gaining headway in tn
practice of go ahead dairymen. Try i
and see how it works in your case.
When your heifers come in, weigh an,
test their milk for a whole year, so tina
you can tell without any guess wor
which produce the most, and when yo'
! have any to sell, always let the poores
, go.

woRN.our APPLE TREES.

An orchard needs manuring as we'll MS
n cornfeld, and the cause of the failure
of the fruit is no doubt the
poverty of the soil. Small, gnarly fruit
indicates starvation of the trees. The
trees should be well pruned as soon as
convenient and few loads of manure
spread over the orchard. 1t would be
useful to plow the manure in and in the
spring sow clover, which may be turned
under with dressing of lime next fall.

Lansing, June 30. The weather
conditions of the past week have been
very favorable to all crops. and the
corn and oats have made rapid ad-
vances. The wheat is heading out
rapidly and turning yellow, and har.
vesting will probably begin in the
soothern section in about 10 days.
Hay quitting Is Progressing in most
sections. The yield is reported as
barge and the hay Of fine quality. Al
though few sections would be bene-
cited by more rain, yet, rs a rule, the
local rains of the week before did
much to keep the soil in good condi-
ton to make the crops grow at rapid
rate, and no complaints have been re-
celved. In the late planted corn the
cut worms are doing considerable dam
age, and some few fields have been re-
planted.
