Aim TO Get the Most Butter When tho
Article Is Highest.
VIII not the prevailing low prices for
butter during the summer show the
daitymen, who depend upon the ruling
of the market, that in order to get any
money out of cows they must not be in
full flow of milk during hot weather?
Cows which are to calve in the fall
are going dry. This is asst should be
"a full flow in autumn and winter and
falling off in summer when butter is
cheap. Taking the country through,
not one farmer in ten has any
other market for his butter but
that afforded by the grocery
stores, where good, bad and in
different all sell alike. While this
seems foolish to the regular customer
dairymen, who. whether butter comes
down to ten cents or not is sure of his
price, it is fact just the same. These
same grocery-store butter makers
might by little forethought avoid be-
ing placed in situation where the
only alternative lies between selling at
an extremely low price and holding
their butter until fall, hoping for rise
in the price.
The old way of having all the cows
calve In the spring and go dry early in
the winter has obtained so firm foot
hold that it seems impossible to dislodge
1t from some mems minds. Yet nothing
but n direct reversal of this practice
will bring profit to the general farmer
out of his cows. Plan to have the cows
calve in October and the two following
months. Butter then brings its best
price, while the cows are fresh and do
ing their best Then when hot wealth
er comes and the price begins to drop,
when pastures fail, when flies are trou-
blesome and the work of making good
butter is almost an impossibility, I'M
less supplied with more conveniences
than the average farmhouse possesses,
let the cows take vacation. 1t is just
when all possible time is needed in the
field-another point in favor Of not
having much milking to do.
Many men object to winter dairying
because it takes so much grain. Years
ago, when we began housekeeping, we
had but two cows. Upon these cows
we experimNted with feed and
watched the results in the milk-pail
and churn. We found that with but
ter no higher than sixteen cents per
pound our cows paid us twice over for
the grain they consumed at market
prices. We often, now that the two
cows have increased to twenty or more,
hear men ask: "How can you afford to
feed so much grain?" But when the
butter pays for the grain several times
over, we do not hesitate to ''shove in"
the feed
Summer dairying will probably al
ways be followed by some men. They
are the men who dislike to milk and
take care of cows when it is cold,
whose stables are far from being com
Portable, and whose COWS are of the
scrub variety. They are willing to
take pail on their arm and go out to
the barnyard to milk, but can not bear
to milk in a stable. When winter
comes, they prefer to sit by the
stove rather than milk; so the milk
dwindles down to enough for coffee,
and sometimes to none at all.-Country

A Few Thoughts Suggested That May BE
of Benefit.
Horses are lower in price just now
than ever known before in this coun-
try. Let us look about little before
concluding that the horse breeding
business is gone up. A writer in Farm
and Home suggests test of strength
in the horse market He says:
place one thousand dollars in the
hands of reliable, intelligent horse
buyer and tell him to secure horse
for you, standing sixteen hands high,
weighing !, 100 pounds, standard color,
handsome and stylish, good DISPOSE
ton and fearless, with courage, endur-
ance and action, that will allow him
to go on the road naturally at
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. gait, pull
ing you and a companion down
the road at better than
$50 gait, and your buyer, if an honest
man, will bring you back your money
and tell you that he can't find such a
horse for the money. Such a horse is
the gentleman's ideal road horse, a
type for which there is an enormous
demand and no apparent supply"
A gentleman of this city, a county
official, who uses horse more or less
every day, who has an eye for good
driving horse, was telling recently of
giving his family horse to friend in
the country, on conditions that it should
be we'll cared for, and if at any time he
did not want it to send it back, and the
boy who brought. it back should be paid
for bringing it home.
But" said he, 81 have new mare
to take her place-a good one, too. :"
He said he had in mind certain we'll
TODD farmer who always had good
horses. He went out, to find the farm
or overstocked. He was offered the
choice of ten head for fifty dollars, but
there was six-year-old mare, the
mother of two of the finest colts that
had ever been on the farm, sound,
dark bay in color, sixteen hands high,
kind handler, safe with the women
and children, would not scare at the
cars, would meet steam thresher on
the road and go by it quietly, was
never known to take anybodys dust on
the road-a beautiful, intelligent driv-
ing-horse-that it would take one hun
bred dollars to buy. My friend bought
her without one word. The farmer
said to him:
81 expect you could get mere for this
mare in the spring than you have paid
me- doubt if you would take $125 for
the mare now?"
NO" said her new owner, mot twice
that money, for she is just what want
for my wife and myself"
There is another point right here
that must be noted. The farmer just
referred to was induced to sell tiptop
brood-mare for the price of two real
good horses. This was killing the
goose that laid the golden egg" This
is going on all over the country. There
is horse buyer in this city buying

but lose appetite, and become ex-
hausted. If the poultry-house is kept
clean, lice may be prevented, but lice
may exist even in clean poultry
house if insecticides are not frequently
used. On the bodies of the hens Persian
insect-powder may be applied with adj
vantage. In the nests the refuse of to-
bacco factories will serve admirably.
Scotch snuff will drive lice away, and
so will the free use of lime.-Farm and

horses for the New York market.
Farmers are selling their best horses
and keeping inferior stock. The work
OF years of breeding is going out of the
country for a song; the cheap horses
remain on the farms to reproduce
cheap horses, which are already in
over-supply.
Let us look further: The western
and southern ranges are full of cheap
horses, and can keep the horse market
OF the country crowded with low-priceo
things, such as they are, for years and
years The fact is, farmers can not
hope to compete with the cheapness of
the ranges; they must excel in quality

Getting Late Strawberries.

An amateur gardener has discovered
how to get late Strawberries. He cuts
away the first flowers, and it takes two
weeks to produce another set, making
the fruit that much later. The crop
will not be as large as if the first flow
ers had been unmolested, and natural
ly the treatment is too expensive for
the market gardeners practice, but an
