INTELLIGENT Stock BREEDING,

y Wisconsin paper gives the
substance Of an address on this
topic by Prof. Henry, of the ex.
pertinent station of that state. He
gave the farmers some excellent
advice on the subject of improving
stock, he deprecated the fact
that many farmers refused to work
in harmony IN the matter of breed
ing. lie advised them to work
together, to cooperate in securing
first class sires, help each other
out, get a good animal IN the
neighbOrhOOd and all patronize
him, thus keeping up a uniformity
of stock in a community and max
ing it possible for a purchaser to
secure a car load of uniform stock,
whether they be COWS, steers,
swine, or horses. If one raises
Jerseys, another Holstein, and an
other something else, 1t is difficult
to find enough of one class to
tempt a buyer to that community.
While If there is dozen breeders
having the same class of animals,
buyers would be attracted, as it
would give them but little more
expense of time and travelling to
secure a large number than it
would to 60 there ana buy one
mans stock. For this reason a
uniformity of efforts would be
largely beneficial to all and would
bring much more money to the
farmers of a neighborhood in
term of years than by raising a
variety of breeds.

Milk From thin Cows.

When COW is thin, and especial.
ly if she be losing flesh, her milk
cannot be itch IN fat, and what
there is will make poor butter, and
come slowly. This is the trouble
that many farmers find at the
beginning of winter. Cream that
could be made into butter In fifteen
or twenty minutes has now to be
chnrDed an hour or more. The
remedy is to feed the COWS more
heavily, and with something thai
will increase fat as well as milk
flow. If the COW be worth keen
ing as a mixer ste will not dry or
and become beefy under such
treatment. If she does 1T is a fail

the VALUE OF CACHED ASHES.

Until the last few years all the
wood ashes made on the farm were
leached to produce I've for soap,
and my mother always insisted
upon having half bushel of lime
mixed with ashet in the leach to
produce lye strong enough to bear
up an egg, and in selecting ashes
for the leach, if any had become
damp they were discarded as unfit
anG we're mixed with last years
leached ashes and applied on the
farm, usually where corn was to
be planted, and always with good
results. The lime put in the leach
will show itselfi1 the soil many
years afterwards. have plowed
mp lime with a few ashes dlstin-
guishable that my father put on
twenty years before, and never had
a poor crop where they were put.
1t was on stony ground that could
not be so thoroughly titled as freer
soil consequently lasted longer
Some ten years ago planted corn
on a field that had a poor spot in
which nothing OF any amount
would grow. No one could tell
why.
Before planting l took the ashes
from the last years leach and
spread them over this poor place,
then spread stable manure over it
the same as the rest of the field
The corn grew larger on that poor
spot where the ashes were than on
any other part of the field. The
next year the oats were a failure
Oh that spot they grew up a little,
hale headed, fell down and died.
The crop of rSe following and all
other crops since, even the grass,
have been better on that spot than
any other in the field, but there
were too much ashes for oats the
first year.-COuntry Gentlemen.
