digestion, relieves sicE headache, clears the

An Acre of Dwarf Juneberry.

Mr.. d. G. Beacon of Victor, Iowa,
asks: "How are dwarf Juneberries
propagated? How rapid is their in
crease? How many plants should be
set to the acre? How cultivated, and
what is the probable cost per acre?
What the probable income from an
acre per year? What varieties would
you recommend for market growing?
How many bushels would an acre
yield?" With our present experience
we will be obliged to do some guess
work. AS yet but few have grown an
acre of this fruit East or West, and the
fruit of these few acres has been mar
keted, so far as know, under the name
of "huckleberry." Indeed, some of
our growers received the plants as high
bush huckleberry, and really believed
them true to name.
The dwarf Juneberry can be propa-
gated by grating on very short pieces
of apple roots. If set deep they will
root from the scion the first year and
be on their own roots. After the
plants are established they propagate
by sprouts from the crown. They
should he set about four feet apart in
the rows, with the rows five feet apart.
The number is easily computed. The
culture is merely to keep down weeds
with cultivator. The income will de-
pend on the market. l believe all can
be sold at good prices if labeled buckle
berries. The name Juneberry might
for awhile hurt their sale. The yiell of
fully established plants is very large.
On we'll established plants it might
reach 100 bushels per acre and possibly
more. The birds do not trouble a
large plantation to any serious extent.
The varieties do not vary much.
What we call the Grinnell, Green
County and Gardner, are local names
for varieties almost identical. l be-
lieve they all came from the east slopes
of the Rocky Mountains and are varie-
ties of what botanists have called
Amelanchier Alpinum. Rural Life.

Holsteins as Beef Cattle.

The claim has frequently been put
forth in behalf of the Holsteins, that
they are good for beef production. The
results of our experiment do not sup
port this claim. The Holsten grade in
the contest grew well. He was Wis or
Gus from the first. He made an aver
age daily gain of PAP pounds, but he
made this respectable gain by the con-
sumption of an unusually large amount
of food. He was valued at AZ cents per
pound, live weight, while some of the
other steers were valued at 81 cents, as
before stated; hence, at the end of the
year he was worth S8.SS less than the
average grade of the purely beefing
types, when the cost of rearing is taken
into the account. He was, notwith-
standing, vigorous-growing steer, but
there was baroness on the shoulder and
lack of depth on the loin, which went
against him wheh the value of the meat
was to be pronounced upon. 1t is highly
probable that the other purely dairy
breeds would fare even worse rather
than better in such contest, since their
conformation is against them for meat
making at profit. II may be that in
the succeeding experiments, to be con-
Quoted essentially on the same lines,
the results will be more favorable to the
Holsteins. sincerely hope they will,
for the energetic and enterprising breed.
ers of that class of stock have been
saying to the people that the Holstein
cattle are good for beef production as
well as for the dairy. am quite aware
that / am here treading upon dangerous
ground, and that an avalanche of hostile
criticism may follow the publication of
this letter; but why in the name of rea-
son should truth be suppressed for
fear of criticism? towards are capable
of playing such a part. Experiments
are avowedly conducted for the benefit
of the people. Why then should it be
expected of those who conduct them,
that they should act the part of the
silent, muffied mummy, lest by speak
ing they should give offense? If any
breed is said to be really good for beef
production which is not really good for
this purpose, the experimenter has a
right to say so, if in doing so he pub
fishes the findings of his own investi-
cations. The beef grower, then, should
learn at the outset that unless he has
the right material to commence with
he cannot grow beef at a profit, and
that capacity in this respect on the part
of the animal is quite as important as
the nature of the food ration Thomas

FROM five to seven millions of our
most intelligent and industrious popula-
ton are more or less dependent on the
dairy for their support, and the amount
invested in the business is estimated at
100000, 900. In the year ending
April 80, 1891, there were just eighteen
manufacturers of oleomargarine in the
United States, and these were mostly
millionaries, who, for the purpose of
increasing their colossal fortunes, are
permitted, by means of their bogus
product, to imperil the vital interests
of seven millions of our best citizens,
with most of whom it is a constant
struggle to make both ends meet.

How best to combine and utilize the
skim-milk as hog food is not easily an
swered. But knowing from observa-
ton the happy effect of moderate
quantity of milk on the ration, and also
the unsatisfactory result when milk
forms the principal food, we would
recommend the use of milk and meal
in nearly equal proportions by weight.
That is, hundred pounds of corn meal
mixed with one hundred pounds of
milk will make about the right proper
ton for a slop, and but little more
drink will be demanded.

THE Maine Farmer is very loyal to
the interests of the farmers, and with
out any bitterness espouses the sensi-
bic view in regard to the use and pur-
pose OF the industrial schools which
national government has so literally
endowed in all the states. In recent
issue it says: zone by one the col
leges of agriculture and mechanic arts
in the several states are getting into
line as distinctive institutions. This is
as it should be. Maine and Massachu-
sets started right in this respect in the
first place. Vermont connected its
grant with its university at Burlington,
and has realized but little benefit from
it so far as agriculture and mechanics
are concerned. In its legislature, two
years ago, the farmers tried to set the
matter right, but failed. No doubt
with another effort they will be success
full. New Hampshire has already
broken from yarmouth and is setting
up an independent institution at Dur
ham. Rhode Island loaned its grant to
Brown University. Recently, however,
the state established an agricultural
school and experiment station at Kings
ton, and now the farmers ask of its leg
islature that the recent congressional
grant of fifteen to twenty-five thousand
dollars year be placed to the promo
ton of the Kingston school, instead of
going to Brown University. The house
of representatives has just passed bill
to that effect, and it is quite probable
the senate will ratify this action, when
the farmers and mechanics of that
state will fall into line with a school
devoted expressly to their interests.
Thus the industrial classes win their
way when they rise up and put forth an
effort to that end. Certainly those sue
coed who put forth an effort to help
themselves"

Iowa shipped S1,774,69 pounds of
butter during 1891. The best author
tiles estimate the home consumption of
butter to be fifty pounds per capita, or
100000, 900 pounds; to this add 6S,69O,-
715 pounds and we have as the total
make of the state 16S,690, 7l5 pounds,
Estimating this amount at twenty cents
per pound gives $33,73S, 143 as the
value of the butter industry in Iowa.

mixed and bear any dilution with water,

formula gives perfect emulsion with

used with little or no dilution. For

WE have several enquiries about the
"Steele's Red apple ," of Michigan. The
apple sent East under that name is the
old Red Canada-the Nonesuch of Mas
sachusetts. When in perfection, as it
seems to grow in Michigan, this apple
has few equals. But in the East it is
far from being a reliable orchard fruit,
save in few localities.

Mr.. A. MERRILL of Chelsea, VT,
