CARING FOR FRUIT.
Some OF the Advantages Incident to ths
Use 81 an ssyaporator.


With all products it is an item not to
allow any to go to waste. So far as
possible, arrangements should be made
so that when crop is ready to harvest
it can be saved in good season, and
with fruit this is fully as important as
with any other product. To do this to
the best advantage 1t is always best to
make necessary arrangements in ad-
vance, as there is almost certain to be
waste, and whatever is wasted is that
much taken from the possible profits.
Whenever there is full crop of fruit
there is always more or less that can=
not be marketed to IN advantage. In
nearly all cases what cannot be sold or
used can be evaporated or dried and
stored away for use later on, and in
this way be converted into a marketa-
BILE product.
One advantage in using the evaporator
is that the work can go on irrespective
of the weather, and there is much less
risk of loss than in drying, while, if
the work is properly done the quality
of the product is much better and will
sell for better prices.
In showery weather it is no little
work to get fruit properly dried in the
sun, but with an evaporation the work
can go right along and as the majority
of early fruit is perishable it is best to
manage as far as possible to take care
Of it as fast as it ripens. Nearly all
varieties of small, as well as tree fruits,
can be evaporated and used in the fam
lily during the winter or marketed to d
good advantage. Raspberries and
blackberries especially make an excel
lent fruit evaporated. Cherries, plums,
pears peaches, apricots and apples can
be evaporated to good advantage,
and what is used in this way will help
lessen the quantity that must be sold.
The second grade of fruit can be used
for this purpose, insuring better price
for what is sold, and at the same time
lessening the waste. Evaporated fruits
sell at better price than the sun-dried,
and as less work is required, can readi-
ly be made more profitable.-St, Louis
Republic.

even some girls, young or old, could
make.
First get stake, the height you
want Allow enough for driving into
the ground; then bore holes at certain
distances and put in pegs about six
inches long, on top, and then gradually
longer downwards. Then take hoops
such as come from sugar barrels, etc,
and nail one around the bottom pegs,
and others in spiral manner up to-
wards the top, as shown at the left of
the illustration. Paint any color, and
it will look we'll.
Another trellis is made like this:
Take a stake, and fasten square
frame at top and a larger one at the
bottom, and drive nails close together
all around the frame, both at top and
bottom. Then take stout Irvine and
run up and down, all around, and you
have fine trellis for cypress vine or
morning glories. Popular Gardener.

REYNARD COULD REASUN.
The Clever Scheme of Fox for SecNPins
Prey.

Prey.
Ahuntsman in Norway one day nb-
served fox cautiously approaching the
CROUCH, the fox jumped up on top of
it, and after looking around awhile,
hoped down to the ground again.
After Reynard had repeated this feat
several times, he went his way. In a
short time he returned to the spot,
carrying in his mouth pretty large and
heavy piece of wood. AS if to test his
vaulting powers, he renewed his leaps
on the stump keeping the stick in his
mouth. Finding that even with this
weight he could jump up quite easily,
he dropped the piece of wood, and coll
ing himself up on the top of the stump,
remained motionless as if dead. Some
time after, an old SOW, with a number
of young ones, came out of the wood,
and passed the spot were the fox lay.
Two of the little pigs having fallen be-
hind the others, the fox bounced down
on one of them, seized it in his mouth
and sprang up again to his tree-stump.
On hearing her little one cry, the old
sow came rushing back to its assist
ance, and spent the greater part of the
night in vain attempts to reach Reynard.
He, however took the matter very coolly,
devouring his prey under the very nose
of its mother, which was at length
obliged to move off without being able
to avenge Chicago Journal

ROOTS FOR STOCK.
How to Feed and When to Feed Told In
Concise Way.

Concise Way.
How TO FEED.-For cattle, the roots
should be cut, to avoid choking. Horses
will eat them with safety without.
Sheep should have them cut fine, by
pulper, and fed in troughs. Cattle may
have them sliced or pulped and fed In
manger, with or without mill feed on
them, two or three times day, or, as
some prefer to cut dry feed, straw, hay,
or cornfodder. Have two bins; put in
cut feed to the depth of eight or ten
inches, sprinkle on water to dampen
and sprinkle of salt, then tramp down
tight, then put on layer of pulped
roots and layer of cut feed and roots as
before, and so on, as many as you like,
until you have enough for one days
feeding. Let this stand until the next
day when it will be quite warm for
feeding that day, and as you take it out
it mixes together. If you want to feed
meal or bran throw it on top of it, in
the manger, then fill the other bin for
next day, as before, each bin standing
over night to ferment, which is relished
greatly by cattle.
WHEN TO FEED.-When your stable
is warm so that manure will not freeze,
or the weather is warm, as cattle are
not benefited by roots if they stand in
the cold after eating them. Neither do
they require much water, if they have
three pecks or one bushel a head per
day. In cold weather, if turned out of
stable one hour in the middle of the
day, for drink and exercise, it is suf-
ficient. Cows milking, should hssemilled
before feeding turnips, as milking after
tends to give the butter taste of the
turnip with some cows. If it does,
drop pinch of saltpeter in the bottom
of the pan and strain the milk on it,
which destroys all turnip flavor, and
is perfectly healthful. Some put a
little in the churn before churning in.

At the New Jersey experiment sta
ton, according to a report made by
Prof Voorhees, in the Rural New
Yorker, it was found that both man
ures and fertilizers increase the water
contents of the tubers; that the form Of
potash used influences both the water
and starch contents-kainit giving the
most water and least starch. Next
came yard manure, muriate and finally
sulphate of potash, the last giving the
highest contents of starch, excepting
only the tubers raised without manure
of any kind, AS to quality, the differ
ence in flavor was marked. Those
raised with sulphate were decidedly
superior to all others; those from yard
manure next, and from the muriate
next, and finally those from the kainit
ranked lowest. As to yield, it appears
that muriate stood first, sulphate next,

MUST GO TOGETHER.
To Be Successful a Creamery Must Have
Intelligent Patrons.


We often hear sharp criticism in
dulged in by creamery men against
their patrons and by patrons against
creamery men. 1t has been our OBJ
servation quite often that the criticism
was well deserved both ways. But we
wish to assert bedrock principle that
knows no exception: 1t is impossible
to run a poor creamery when the
patrons are well posted in dairying.
They simply won't have it. The poor
creameries and cheese factories can
continue to exist only when the patrons
do not know what is due them. The
other day we read the report of a
creamery at Geneva, ILL.,, and it did us
good to note what splendid combina-
ton in society lot of intelligent
patrons and good creamery can make.
There are sixty patrons, and they de-
livered last year 5,737,757 pounds of
milk, which produced $40, 797 pounds of
butter, an average of 4.35, or tritle
over AZ pounds of butter to 100 pounds
of milk. The amount received for the
butter was $56, 039.23.
One of the hest proofs of the intelli-
gence of the patrons is found in the eX-
cellent quality of their milk That is
an old dairy section around Geneva
and the dairymen there have learned
that it don't pay to have poor cow or
to keep good one poorly. Evidently
they have long since discarded the idea
that lots of milk without reference to
its quality was the thing in a creamery
or cheese factory. So many farmers
have that important lesson yet to learn.
1t must be a pleasant task to run a
creamery with such lot of well-posted
dairy farmers for patrons. -Hoard's
Dairyman.

vision was for a trust fund of $780, 900 from

main prior to February, 1872. From the
Treaty of 1855 and the language Of the act

could not pass to the railroad, being other
wise reserved and set aside. AT the time Of

for that purpose and settlement on them
was prohibited, consequently they cclld
