BREEDING OFF THE HORNS.

It is a futile hope to expect to
breed hornless cattle by the practice
of dishorning. There have been in
stances in which an artificial peculiar
ity in the animal has become inherited,
but this is exceedingly rare and is not
to be taken as a rule for breeders.
Lambs have been locked for centuries,
but they still come into the weld with
long tails. The only satisfactory way
to have a herd of pooled cattle is to
use polled bull, and this, being in
conformity to the natural laws of
breeding, may be depended on in time
to fix this character on the progeny.
It may not be fully effective in the
first generation or in several, but ex-
perience has shown that in time the
character Of the siros will be fixed On
the progeny in the end. For dairy
cattle the polled red Norfork will
make q good hornless sire. The
Scotch Aberdeen cattle are sometimes
excellent dairy animals. New York

considerably less feeding value than
the cream OF gluten meal and the sugar
meal, as one would naturally expect
from its composition and market price
1t has apparently about the same feed
ing value pound for pound as the mix
ture OF bran and corn, and AS it can be
purchased IN the market for less than
either OF these 1t follows that il should
be al economical and profitable feed
Mr.. Cook Is led to the conclusion
that germ feed has about the same feed
ing value as mixture of equal parts
by weight of wheat bran and corn meal :;
that sugar meal and cream gluten meal
both have higher feeding value than
the above, and that these latter also
have slight effect on the richness of
the milk.
Finally, it should be remembered
that this is bnt q slight series Of trials
ana that the work needs to BE- repeated
several times before = sure conclusion
can be drawn.
1t is necessary here to utter word
of caution in regard to the Use of these
concentrated feeds, sugar meal and
especially cream gluten meal. They
are both exceedingly rich concentrated
feeds, and like cottonseed meal should
be fed sparingly. Three or four pounds
day of sugar meal per COW Is as much
as It Is safe to give, while with cream
gluten meal the limit of two pounds
per day per cow should not be exceed

BEST CROP FROM DRILLED CORY,

For three years, says d New York
farmer IN the Tribune, our drilled
corn has yielded from 106 to 100 bush
els of ears per acre, whereas we got
but seventy-tive 70 100 by the check
row method. The extra yield is due
to there being more stalks; you can
have four to six stalks to every three
feet of drill, and they ear as we'll as
three to four stalks put IN checkrow
clump. We pillow the ground in the
fall, draw ten to twelve loads OF good
stable manure per acre early in the
spring, so the strength of the manure
will be partly washed into the soil be-
fore planting. Harrow same as for
any crop. Set the drill 30 SOW from
81 to - quarts per acre, according to
size and variety of corn. But the
safest way to set the drill is to pull
the rubber hose out of the hce and let
the corn run on top of the ground, and
set it SO it will run from four to six
kernels every three feet Of drill tc

PLANTING YOUNG TREES.

a great deal or difficulty Is eX-
pricnced in handling young trees that
have been bought at a nursery, and
especially If they have been trans
ported a long distance. All nursery
men Ill sending out trees should con
slider it a part Of their contract to send
written orders with their trees, giving
a good description of the kind of soil
in which the trees have been growing,
and the general location of the nursery.
This would help many farmers and
fruit growers to give the trees a good
start. As it is now, very often the
trees are forced to adapt themselves to
entirely different soil to mich they
have been accustomed, and a year or
two Of good growth is lost through
this sudden change
A great deal can be saved, however,
If the farmer understands how to
handle the trees and how best to set
them out. Many trees are received
during q dry season, and as they have
been transported long distance, they
need planting at once. When the
trees are received they should be set
Immediately, and the longer they are
kept implanted tho longer will the
check to their growth be made. Prune
of carefully all dead and mutilated
roots. Then dig E hole large enough
to accommodate all OF the remaining
roots in the positions in which they
hang. II the roots cG1 be planted in
their natural position there will be
less danger Of loss; brt to do this,
very large holes are often required
Place tho tree IN the holo and fill it
half up with the clay, and then
satCrate il thoroughly with water until
it is workable clay. With small hoe
or blunt stick this sticky clay s'ould
be worked carefully around AID into
the roots Of the tree. With little
l35oI at this work tho roots will
quickly get established, and decide
largely the f-5ure OF the tree After
this the rest OF the soil should be
thrown in and piled up around the
tree, and q good mulch of stable
manure provided. # TITO season is
wet instead o. dry one, the top
mulch will not be needed, but if there
is eny danger OF Il drought, the mulch
is the only way to prevent the roots
from getting thirsty. But with a good
mulch a newly set tree can be kept
moist for months. The water that
has been applied directly to the roots
will be kept there, and not allowed to
evaporate.
TO put all of the soil back into the
hole, end then pour water upon it, is
method that many practice now, but
is not nearly as satisfactory as the one
described. A great deal of the water
thus put on the surface will never get
down to the roots, but will be absorbed
more by the surrounding surface soil
When we pu5 it in the hole half filed
with soil, it goes direct to the roots,
where it is needed. Where the soil is
very dry in times of drought, it is sur
prising to see how much water the
surface soil will absorb. If one digs
down foot, however, he will find !
hat the subsoil is still untouched by
the water. American Cultivator.
