other fruit has decayed. Grapes, on
the contrary, never ripen any after
picking. All that can be expected in
the way of change is the evaporation OF
some OF the water, and finally decay.
They must be in perfect condition for
eating when plucked, or the full value
of the fruits will be missed They
should be plucked as soon as ripe, how
ever, and be stored away in some cold
place. They can be preserved even
longer than pears. Raspberries, straw
berries and blackberries gain very little
after picking. They should be allowed
to reach their full growth before pick
ing, but they are worthless for keeping
if allowed to reach the stage commonly
known as "dead ripe" They are then
unfit for shipping. Practically the de-
structive forces have already started
into operation at that point, and moth
ing will stop them after such start.
Apples most largely ripen on the
trees, but they also improve good deal
afterward. They follow a middle course
between the berries and pears. After
they are plucked, however, the condi-
tions that surround them on the tree
must be speedily removed. They must
first be allowed to sweat in the orchard,
and then they need to be thoroughly
dried. Fortunately, our autumn
weather at apple-picking time is very
dry, and the air is not 40 favorable for
their decay as in pear-picking time.
Apples can consequently be preserved
much easier in the fall than the sum.

or two hogs on the farm. In order to
90 into the business for money, the
owner must understand considerable
about the science of breeding and feed
ing. One of the great causes of fail
ures in swine husbandry is due to gen.
eral ignorance of these two points.
Nearly every one raises few hogs,
and, consequently, like editing a paper,
every one thinks that he can make
the business pay when conducted on
larger scale. Many reason that it is an
easy matter to write and edit paper,
aud that it is also an easy matter to
raise hogs by giving them swill and the
general refuse and garbage of the farm,
with some corn to fatten them. Such
people generally fail 10 making money
with swine, and are the ones that com
plain about the business.
Another great cause OF failure is
overstocking. This may be considered
from several points of view. AS clover
and grass are essential to the cheap
production of hogs, it is poor policy to
keep 30 many swine on the place as to
make it impossible to give them their
share Of clover. The farm is over
stocked when it is necessary to buy
clover to feed them, or to depend en-
tirely upon corn and grain. When a
farm is overstocked with swine, there
will generally be found plenty of in
ferior animals. The tendency is to pay
more attention to quantity than to quail
ity, and the herd consequently soon de-
generates. Overlooking in any sense
OF the word is Improbable.
Quick returns and quick profits should
be the aim of the swine-breeder, and
this is such an important thing to farm
ers that they should consider it well.
Most of the labors of the farmers are
paid for only after years of waiting.
From the time that the hogs are brought
into this world until they are sold, they
should be fed literally, so that they
will grow rapidly. The quicker the
animals mature, the better the meat is
which they produce. Forcing is always
good, provided that it is not carried 80
far as to injure the digestive organs of
the animals. That is the danger line.
Forcing with rich food tends to injure
the stomach, but plenty of clover and
coarse fodder counteracts the danger

Trees and Lightning.

There Is q popular belief that q cherry
tree Is an unsafe shelter during thunder
storm on account of It's special liability to
be struck by lightning. Some interesting
observations in the susceptibility Of differ
ent trees to lightning are copied from The
Popular Science Review.
Tho resistance Of different trees to the
electric spark has been studied by NJ
Jonesco Dimitrie, who placed pieces Of
sapwood, Of beech and oak in the way OF
the spark of Holtz electric machine
The spark passed through the oak after
one or two revolutions Of the machine
while IL or 30 revolutions were required
to give 1t force enough to pass through the
beech. Five revolutions were sufficient
with black poplar and willow Similar
results were obtained with heartwood.
The presence Of water had no influence
on the resistance, but richness in fat was
an important factor. "Starchy trees, I"
poor In fat, like the oak, poplar, willow,
maple, elm and ash, opposed much less re-
sistance to the spark than fatty" trees,
like the beech, chestnut, linden and birch
The pine which Is rich In oil in winter
and poor in 1t in summer shows q CORE
spending difference in behavior toward
the spark at those two seasons In the
"starchy" trees the living wood was hard
er to strike with the spark than the dead
wood.
The bark and foliage are poor conduct
ors in all the trees, but this is Of little
Importance as compared with the conduct
ing power of the tree itself. These results
are in harmony with what has been OBJ
served as to the relative frequency with
which trees of these several species are
struck by lightning. The author found
also that station and soil affect the liabil-
ity of trees to be struck. The vicinity of
water augments the danger Isolated trees
seem more liable than those which are
massed All species Of trees may be struck
when the electric tension Is high

Swine Raising.

In many respects swine raising is
the leading animal industry of this
country, and it gives quicker and surer
returns than any other. For these two
reasons alone, it is an industry that is
of the greatest Importance to the ma
jority of farmers. Some may claim
that the dairy business is one that
equals that of swine raising in these
respects, but, to make dairying great
success, it is necessary to spend some
time in building up herd of valuable
animals, and the returns at first are al
ways slow. 1t might be further added
that swine husbandry can be started
with the least invested capital of any
other, and that even the poorest farmer
can afford to start with half a dozen
swine. Returns are always absolutely
sure in swine raising, for there is no loss.
Should the market be overstocked, the
meat is always of value to the farmer
for family use, and later the pork may
sell well.
In swine husbandry, as a specially
there is, however, vast difference be-
tween that and ordinary raising of one

What About the Outs!

A sensible horse-trader says that men
who own brood mares or select sires,
seem to think only of some special vir-
tue. The mare has good disposition,
she is fast walker and fast driver, or
the stallion has low record. All of
these are good, but what about the outs2
The fact is that bad as we'll as good
qualities are transmitted, and it is the
SUM total of the whole which tells the
story. Look sharply at the weak spots,
and do not allow the excellence of a
single good quality to blind the glaring
defects.

A Lump in a Teat.

The lump should be broken or cut off
with teat sitter, long, narrow
bladed, concealed knife, which can be
pressed into the teat and then the blade
pressed out to cut to any desired depth.
In the absence of the teat sitter or of a
veterinary surgeon to operate on the
teat for you, the lump could probably
be broken off with milking tube, or,
still better, by probe of the size and
once or twice the length of milking
tube, with one end sharpened to a
flattened point. Carefully insert the
probe or tube in the teat until the lump
is reached; then by manipulation force
the probe through the lump until it is
broken down sufficiently to allow free
passage of the milk. After the oper-
alton it may be desirable to leave a
milking tube in the teat for few days
to prevent the opening from closing in
healing. L. Kilborne, in Rural New
Yorker.

Poultry Notes.

No one can make a success with any
kind of poultry if the house is not kept
clean and in good condition.
AT the price wheat now is, there ia
no cheaper food for hens, and it may be
made the principal grain fodder with
profit.
WHITEwAsH will cover up more of o
poultrymsn's sins than any other one
thing. Use it freely and often, and ap'
ply hot If possible.
EGGS from hens that are allowed To
pick up their own living from the fields
and manure piles are not as good as
those from hens having regular ration
of sound and wholesome grain.
If your chicks stand around and
sleep in the sun, look out for lice. You
may think there are no lice about, bu,
if you will look on their heads and along
their necks you will find lot of big
gray fellows who are sucking the life
out of the cbicks.-1roy Times.
