the Care OF Fruit Trees.

When the trees bloom and the fruit
is first formed, the. grower can easily
form an opinion in regard to picking
off portion, should the tree show in
dications of being well laden. 1t is
better to pick off the fruit not desired
while it is very small, SO as to tax the
vitality of the tree as little as possible.
1t will enable the tree to grow larger
and better fruit by thinning out should
there be appearance Of heavy bearing,
and thus avoid propping the limbs
later on. Spraying should begin as
early as the season permits, and it
should be done as often as the oppor-
tunity presents for SO doing.

COWS AND BUTTER.
Some Things Taught by the Worlds Fair
Dairy Test.

Some Things Taught by the Worlds Fair
Dairy Test.
The test of cows at the worlds fair
was significant in more than testing
the breeds. A great point was made
in favor of small cows, so frequently
shifted at by the man who knows it
all. The largest COW tested weighed
almost 1,1Oo pounds. She consumed
$22. "A worth of feed while making 147
pounds of butter. During the same
period COW weighing less than $50
pounds only used S22 worth of food to
make 179 pounds of butter. Another
COW weighing considerably over half a
ton used $27.22 of food to make 1919
pounds of butter. And another 500
pound cow made from 1924 worth of
food 1873 pounds of butter. The two
large cows yielded butter at a cost of
1872 cents and 1875 cents per pound re-
spectively, while the little cows yielded
butter at cost of 1858 cents and 1914
cents per pound. But some one says
these little cows are good for nothing
for beef when we have got through
making butter. This is true; and tits
also true that we don't buy a sewing
machine or moving machine withthe
view of what they will bring at last at
half cent pound as old iron. We
overlook this and buy them for the
work they will do, and demand that
it shall be done in the quickest and
most satisfactory manner. Don't buy
a COW for the beef she will make five
or ten years from now-Hollister Sage,

THE FARMING WORLD.
THE COOLING MOTH.
Secretary. Morton Tells Fruit Grower
How to Destroy 1t. SE

Secretary Morton Tells Fruit Growers
How to Destroy IL.
The apple trade of the United States
with foreign countries has always been
profitable. The demand for apples
grown in the United States has always
been in excess of the supply. Great
Britain, alone, during the nine months
ending September, 1894, paid the or
chards of the United States 80, 800, 00O
The greatest enemy to our export APP
pie is the codling moth. But the en-
tire crop can be made worthless if the
orchardists of the United States will
use the following recipe:
"Use Paris green at the rate of
pound to $50 gallons of water Weigh
out sufficient poison for the capacity of
the tank used, and make it into thin
paint with small quantity of water
and add powdered or quick lime equal
to the weight of poison used, mixing
thoroughly. The lime takes up the
free arsenic and removes the danger of
scalding. Strain the mixture into the
spray tank, taking care to pulverize
and wash all the poison through the
strainer. During the operation of
spraying see that the liquid is agitated
with sufficient frequency to prevent
the settling of the poison.
''The prime essential in spraying is
to break up the liquid into a fine mist,
so as to coat every leaf and part of the
plant as lightly as is consistent with
thoroughness. This should not require
more than from 3 to 7 gallons for
comparatively large fruit tree
Let the first spraying follow within
week after the falling of the bios
SONS of either apple or pear, and fol-
low this with second treatment just
before the fruit turns down on the
stem, or when it is from one-fourth to
one-half inch in diameter. The first
spraying reaches the eggs laid by the
moth in the flower end of the fruit
shortly after the falling of the bios
SONS, and the second the later eggs
laid by belated moths. Do not spray
trees when in bloom, and if a washing
rain Immediately follows treatment,
repeat the application.

plying the insecticide can now be OBJ
tanned at reasonable prices at all agri

lating appliances. 1t is useless to at
tempt to keep the hens comfortable
and the house warm, and at the same
time make openings to allow the
warmth to escape by attempting to
afford ventilation. The use of tarred
paper on the outside of the poultry
house is a cheap and effectnal method
of keeping the cold out, and it is better
to use itoa the outside than the inside,
as it is liable to condense moisture if
used on the inside. The wood absorbs
warmth during the day if there is

Teachinr = Calf to DRINK.

There are just two things required in
teaching calf to drink, says a writer.
The first is a little common sense,
the second is practice. The common
sense comes in when you consider that
it's nature is to look up for its food sup
ply, and if you touch the top of its head
or nose, you must expect it's tendency
will be to follow up that direction to
find what it is after. Don't think a
calf day or two old can have great
amount of experience, so don't expect
it to show very much reasoning power.
You must do that for it. When your
patience begins to waver just ask your
self how much more you knew when
you were at the calf's age, and it may
help you to credit the calf with a little
sense.

The value Of Old Hay.

Old hay answers an excellent purpose
even when the cows have an abundance
of green food on the pasture. 1t is
highly relished by them. and they
should have full ration of it at night.
During the season when cows are first
turned on grass they should have salt
and should any of them have the scours
keep them in the barnyard and feed
hay, with mess of hot bran and corn
meal seasoned. Green grass is laxative,
and the cows must not be allowed too
much at the beginning of the pasture
season.

MANAGEMENT OF cows
An English Writer Advocates Patient
Animals and Kind Treatment.

AN Enghsn writer Advocates Patient
Animals and Kind Treatment.
The following plan of management
detailed by an English writer is gem
orally good. Most of us, however,
will not agree with his advice to
change mixers. He says: Good prac-
steal management soon finds out the
cows that are good mixers and too
soon we hear of the cows that are
tough to milk. You may mark them
down as bad milking animals. Il quite
believe in the plan of having each cows
milk weighed. but the want of suffi-
cient and intelligent mixers IS an OBJ
stacle. The milking should be done as
quickly as possible, care being taken
to annoy the cow as little as can be
helped Careless and slow milking
soon spoil the best of cows and put
them difficult to milk for others. 1t is
good plan to change the mixers at
every milking, as it accustoms the COW
to different mixers. The cows should
be managed quietly and spoken to
gently. From calves they should be SO
treated that they will have nothing to
fear from their attendants. Halt of
the nervous cows one sees have had the
life frightened out of them by bad
usage. Where cows are abused by bad
tempered Mixers and where, as /
have seen, a good cows tail broken at
the rump by a blow from byre stool,
we need not be surprised Z if some cows
are nervous and quick when they see a
stranger. Cows being driven by vicious
dogs also makes them scared, and /
make it a practice not to allow dog
near cows. have seen some dogs that
could be allowed to gather the cows,
but only in rare instances, and that
where the cows have been reared to it.
One quick COW in a herd may do a lot
of harm by startling others. When
one COW starts the alarm generally the
whole crowd follow. Everyone who
pays close attention to the milk yield
will find that when COWS have been
alarmed and running, as when for in
stance they break out of the field, it
diminishes the yield of milk. This is
why | advocate quiet-tempered cows
and kindly treatment.
