TRANSFORMING Evergreens, Such as
Red Cedar, Arbor Vitee and the Like.

d. H. Watson, in Texas Farm and
Ranch, says the secret of success in trans
planting this class of evergreens is to not
expose the roots to the sun and air. If
the roots are exposed to a dry wind for as
long as half hour, the chances are that
they will die, while if they are protected
and roots kept moist, but few, if any, will
die. If water and clay are convenient it
IS best to puddle the roots. This is done
by digging hole in the ground, or use a
box or half barrel that Will hold water,
I'LL this hole or box with water, then put
in enough clay, well broken up, TO make
thick mud, mix thoroughly by
stirring with spade or stick,
then dip the roots of each
plant in this puddle. They can be kept
in this puddle until ready for planting, or
can be taken out and carefully wrapped
in some sacking or any old covering. Nur-
serymen usually puddle the roots of ever
greens before shipping them. If not con-
venient to puddle the roots, protect them
by wrapping in wet moss, sacking, or
placing in a vessel of water, and do not
expose the roots until the hole is ready to
receive the plant. Mr.. Fields method is
all right. Any method will do that will
keep the roots moist. When planting
have the hole large enough to give the
roots plenty of room, place the plant in
the hole, carefully sift well pull
verified soil through the roots, and
when the hole is about two
thirds full, either tramp the soil
down firmly with the foot or pour in
bucket of water, after which fill up with
loose soil. Nursery grown evergreens are
the best for transplanting, because they
have better system of roots than those
found growing in the woods. Nursery
grown plants are transplanted once or
twice before being sold, and hence bear
transplanting better; but by being care
full to observe the above rules, one will
lose but few transplanted from the forest.
Small plants are safest to transplant.
consider January and February the best
time to transplant evergreens in our eli
mate, but we usually transplant them any
time from Nov l to March l.

Texas Live Stock and Agricultural
Journal: believe that good sheep of a
pronounced mutton character will con-
tinue to be profitable in the future, as in
the past Why? Simply because legisla-
ton can have but little effect upon the
appetites of the people, and so long as the
appetites call for good mutton to the same
degree that it does at the present time,
there will be a demand for it, and there
will be breeders and feeders striving to
meet this demand. have known cross
bred lambs to be sold Dec. 12 that
weighed 120 pounds each at So % per 100
that had cost but very little-six ewes
and their lambs having been kept on one
acre of pasture.
There is one other consideration in the
keeping of sheep that is seldom taken into
the account by the average Western
farmer, and that is the improvement in
the fertility of the land in every instance
where sheep are kept. They do not only
fertilize the land but they CLEAN it from
UOxious weeds and thus make it valuable,
for we all know that weeds are robbers of
the soil.
Sheep can not be made profitable if an
Improbable kind is kept, neither can the
best kind be kept with profit if subjected
to inclement weather and insufficient feed.
The farmer who is keeping the sheep as a
cleaner or an eradicator of weeds, and
who will not give them his attention had
better go out of the business now. Such
a person has missed his calling if he has
sheep. Good sheep of some mutton types,
in proper hands, with the proper care and
attention, will continue to be profitable
in the future as they have in the past.
Let US keep right on in the line we have
mapped out, paying no attention to what
some other farmer is doing with some
other kind of stock or in some other line
Feed we'll keep the gun loaded for dogs,
a little strychnine where necessary, then
buy and sell well and success is certain.

THEIR TsEFULNESS.

The Jerseys are the grandest, most
beautiful, most useful, most fashionable,
as well as most profitable stock for the
family and the dairy throughout the
whole world. They show their superior
ity not only as the grea test milE-prOducers
or the greatest hutter~mQserS. but also
rs universal dairy cows, adapting them
selves to any and all climates. We find
the Jersey at her best while Drawing the
rlgOrS of a Canadian winter, beating the
whole worlds record as n butter machine
in the hot, dry climate of the sunny
south, retaining her health and vigor
equally on the granite hills of New Ing
land, the plains of Texas, the foothills of
the Rocky mountains and in the soft,
balmy climate of California. Another pc
culiar characteristics of the Jersey is her
habit of persistent milking; she is an
everlasting ''stayer, - hence she Is adapted
to continuous usefulness in the dairy.
She is likewise early 10 breed and very
prolific.
TREATMENT AND CARE.
Precisely the same treatment is re
quired by the Jersey as is required by
good COW of any other breed-no more, no
less. But a good many cows of other
breeds are, when compared with the little
SOO-pound Jersey, very large being 80 to
100 per cent. larger. 1t Is well-estab-
lished fact that on the average cattle
eat in proportion to their live weight;
such being the case il is easy to see that
COW weighing 1900 or 1900 pounds will
eat propOrtiOnately more than one weigh
ing but 500; it is likewise an incontro-
vertible fact that the food necessary to
enable the little Jersey to fill the pail
would be barely sufficient to sustain life
in the larger animal.

Prize Essay. by G. II. Turner.
THEIR HISTORY.


In the Island of Jersey, for upward of
100 years, legislation has forbidden, under
heavy penalties, the introduction into the
island of any and every member of the
bovine race; the increase therefore is
confined wholly to the births of thorough
bred cattle on the island. A single ex-
ception is made in favor of steers for beef
purposes. Whatever, therefore, of merit
there is in keeping a breed strictly pure
the Jersey possesses in a.supereminent de-
gree. Bred upon a little island where no
other breed of horned cattle was allowed,
by rural population who were interested
in the milk only as to its
butter content, butter Outside
of vegetables for market) being
the money crop, with but little if any de
mand for milk, it was natural that she
should be bred with the view of produc-
ing butter The result of breeding for
generations for a specific object has been
to make the Jersey butter cow. The
Jersey is the most thoroughbred of do
nestle animals, the long line of special
breeding fixing the characteristics so
strongly that every animal of the breed
possesses the heredity or prepotency to
transmit its own qualities to its offspring;
and herein lies one of the vast suDeriori-
ties of the Jersey. In her native habitat,
her surroundings, conditions of life,
habits, etc, have always tended to make
the Jersey a butter COW; but it was re-
served to the American breeder,
by upward of forty years of de
voted skill and untiring application. to
develop her to her greatest capacity. AS
a result of his systematic endeayOrs, the
American bred Jersey of to-day is more
than 30 per cent. superior in butter ca
pacity to-that of twenty years ago. We
often hear of the phenomenal record
breakers, which show what highly bred,
specialized COW may do under scientific
high pressure systems of feeding, also the
wonderful progress our breeders have
made in the art of breening for a purpose;
but the greatest glory Of the Jersey lies
not in these abnormal yields, wonderful
though they be, but in not less wonderful
averages obtained in every state in our
glorious union.
THEIR VALUE.
A very important question to all stock
men is. what breed of cattle viii make
the most milk, or butter, or cheese or
beefl or TO put it in other words, what
breed of cattle will make the most of the
product desired, at least COST Our test.
and the test Of all daiFymen. Of the value
Of cow is the number Of pounds Of but
ter she makes on ordinary feed. The
dairy question IS now 70 make the most
butter at the least cost, and our ex-
perience proves 10 US that the Jersey is
the answer 20 the problem she Is pre-emi-
nently the mortgage-lifter. A cow that
can be kept on the moving Of half-acre
lot or lawn, served with q quart or two Of
meal daily, that can be made a pet Of, and
VIII give pound and upward Of butter Of
excellent quality every tWenty-fOur hours,
with cream for the table, milk for all giir-
poses and 10 spare, Is the best and cheap
est COW for the family and butter dairy Is
well Their value can hardly BE- estimated
in dollars and cents.
