Barreling Apples.

Many of the most profitable operations
in commercial life depend in the first in
stance upon very simple facts. Most per
sons would pass by without observing the
bArreling of apples as a case in point II
apples were placed loosely in barrels they
would soon rot, though passing over but a
very short distance of travel; and yet
when properly barreled they can be sent
thousands of miles, even over the rough
est ocean voyage, In perfect security.
This is owing to fact discovered years
ago. without any one knowing particularly
the reason, that an apple roued from a
bruise only when the skin was broken.
An apple can be pressed SO as to have
indentations over its whole surface, with
out any danger of rottng, provided the
skin is not broken. In barreling apples,
therefore, gentle pressure IS exercised,
SO that the fruit is fairly pressed into each
other, and it Is impossible for any one
fruit to change its place in the barrel on
its journey. Apples are sometimes taken
out of barrels with large indentations over
their whole surface, and yet no sign OF
decay. In these modern times we under
stand the reason. The atmosphere is full
of microscope germs which produce fer
mentation, and unless they can get an
entrance into the fruit. rot cannot take
place. A mere indentation without rup-
ture of the outer skin does not perm t OF
the action of those microbes. This is a
simple reason why the early observation
enabled the barreling of apples to be SO
ccessful.-lIfehdH'S W0RthV.

Here and There.

In Maine the farming interests are
changing somewhat, and it is noted that
dairy farming is on the increase
Raw bone should contain 3 to 4 per
cent of nitrogen and 20 to 20 per cent Of
phosphoric acid, the rest of the bulk be-
ing mostly lime. In boiling about hall
the nitrogen is lost.
The splendid work done by the Massa-
chusetts horticultural society is reflected
in the. progress of Horticulture and fruit
growing, not only III New Eng land, but
Throughout the country.
There are no indications of any les
sened production of spruce logs this year
as compared with last years cut.

Of Sumatra leaf tobacco for cigar wrap
pers and filters, according to American
Cultivator, has greatly increased, and
1t works serious injury to the tobacco
growers of Connecticut.
Reports place the annual production
of dried raspberries in western New
York at / 800 tons, about 200 tons Of
which are produced in Wayne county.
A bounty on hawks and foxes is ad-
vocated by certain Pennsylvania farm

Oxen or Horses? Which?

As a general rule il is safer and better
for the farmer to raise more than one
variety of crops and keep more than one
kind of stock. Tbs locality and nature
of the soil have much to do as to the
nature of the stock to be kept, and the
crops to raise. Yet it is not safe to
depend on either kind always. The Irish
found TO their great sorrow their mistake
in depending entirely on their potatoes
for their living.
In regard to which is the most profit
able team to work, oxen or horses, the
nature of the land has much to do wi h
il Where land is billy. rough and
stoney. oxen can be worked to much
better advantage than horses, The OK
cart can 90 over the side hills much better
and safer than the horse wagon. and oxen
can plough much easier the stoney. rough
land than horses. But where the land is
level and easy 10 work, horses can plough
and harrow more in a day than oxen, and
they are wanted for the rake and mower.
Ye, the OK cart is preferred for drawing
in the hay. There is another point which
the ordinary farmer must consider.
Which can he raise, work and sell when
five or six to the surest profit, oxen or
horses Steers can be worked when two,
and turned for beef when five. They
will always bring certain price for beef
Oxen are not as liable to get hurt or
injured as horses, and when they do can
generally be fattened. Americans and
Englishmen don't think it wrong to eat
the OK and the COW, but they do have a
horror in regard to eating the horse. In
India the COW and OK are considered
sacred animals by the natives and it has
almost caused rebellion more than once
their being slaughtered and eaten by the
Christians and Jews.
Nothing will run out moving so quickly
as to have them fed hard by horses, yet
this will not happen if they are fed close
by sheep or cattle. A flock of sheep on
a small moving, if fed well will enrich
it so that it will cut third more grass
the next season Mowings can be
brought to by so doing
One farmer purchased in the spring a
pair Of thfee-year old Durham steers for
$3.50. He did his work on his large
farm that year with them, and the next
winter he sold them for beef for $3.50,
they weighing $500 pounds.
As general rule the ordinary farmer
will find it more profitable to depend on
young cattle to do his team work than
horses.

A Word About CIoyers.

Lucern, or alfalfa. is not largely
grown in New York state. Most farmers
believe that red clover is, on the whole,
better suited to their needs. We often
find farmers here and there who grow
alfalfa successfully. Some years ago the
New Jersey experiment station conduct
ed some useful experiments with alfal-
ia, but since crimson clover has become
popular alfalfa is not reported so much.
Generally speaking fertilizer high in
potash and phosphoric acid and with lit
tie nitrogen is most economical for the

Feeding Roots In Cold Weather.

Full so per cent of most roots is wa
ter. and when fed cold in freezing wealth
er they reduce the temperature OF the
stomach rapidly and impair digestion.
American CultGator says; "It is as an
appetizer that roots in winter are most
valuable. Their nutritive value is very
low in comparison with their bulk OF
cost and it does not pay to fill the stom-
achs of animals with them, especially
in very cold weather A few every day

In reporting upon the Canadian wood
pulp industry the Canadian high commits
sioner states that from inquiries made in
the chief centres of the paper trade in
Great Britain that there is practical
unanimity as to the superiority of the
Canadian article over Scandinavian. the
former being more evenly made, and the
texture better adapted to paper making,
says the paper above quoted. We read :
"The president of the Darwen Paper
Mills in Lancashire went so far as to
declare that Canadian pulp would event
ually command from IS. to los. per ton
more than Scandinavian if the quality be
kept up, and it is worth noting that of the
TO- 900 tons of dry pulp used in these
mills in the year, 1900 tons are Canadian
as it is" The Canadian fibre, says the
president, seems to mill better, and is
certainly of finer and tougher texture

Mr.. Z. G.. Ravenstein, the eminent
English geographer and statistician, has
made some reconcile calculations to find
when the earth will be unable to find
nourishment for its population, and they
will be forced to cannibalism or starva-

Der exceeds 5,994ooo, 900, or in round
