How 10 Wean a Calf.

We are requested to give an easy
mode of weaving a calf. There is
no difficulty when the calf is young.
Sometimes we allow such calf to
draw the milk from the cow once
or twice, but more often not at all.
Take the warm milk fresh from the
and give the calf your submerged
finger to suck. Do not be in a
hurry; the young one will not per-
ish if it does not drink for six
hours after birth. Generally the
calf will smell and taste the milk
and suck the finger. Withdraw the
hand gradually, and after two or
three times it will drink without
the finger. 1t requires a good stock
of patience, because, generally, the
calf objects to put down it's head,
while nature intended it should
hold it's head up to get at the teat.
The older the calf is when wean-
ed-that is, if it has drawn lis RAJ
ton from the dam direct, the hard
er it will be to wean, unless old
enough to eat grass or hay. Such
a calf should be allowed to fast hall
day; then it should be given a
thimbleful of fine salt, when it will
drink the more readily Follow up
the hints given above, and above
all in each case separate dam and
calf and let them not come together
For a calf month or six weeks
old it is difficult to teach it to
drink, but it can be done. In such
case have also box placed so high
that the calf cannot tread into it,
and in this box keep a handful or
two of bran; put grass into the
mouth of the young thing and it
will learn to chew it, get thirsty and
then drink. Handle the animal as
frequently as possible and teach it
that you are not an enemy but a
friend.

Farm Notes.

In all breeding defective points
are more easy of reproduction than
desirable products.
One great help in killing out
weeds is not to allow any to mature
seeds. Look after this now.
The triple income from flock OF
sheep, wool, lambs and mutton
come in at different seasons.
System in feeding and breeding
to and for correct standard is es-
sential in the management of all
stock.
Allowing weeds to grow is rob-
bling the soil of needed plant food
and moisture. Keep the weeds
down.
A hog is not necessarily filthy
animal, and if he is to make meat
for food it is essential that he
should be cleanly raised.
Keep the young pigs growing
during the Summer while on good
pasturage, and it will be much
easier to fatten them in the Fall.
The sprouts which grow up
around the base of a tree from the
roots should be cut out as fast as
they appear, as they appropriate
plant food that should nourish the
tree They are also unsightly and
destroy the appearance of an or
chard.
Growers who raise cucumbers for
market say the first crop from a
particular field is better than any
subsequent one. The soil becomes
filled with enemies of the crop and
a change is necessary. Some grow
ers find it advisable to take new
soil every year.

Selling Honey.

Try hard to make home market
for your honey. If you have pro-
duced fine article and will present
it to customers, either retailers or
consumers. in attractive shape, it
will be very strange if you cannot
sell your crop at better price than
would be realized if sent away to
some city commission man to sell.
Honey makers are often enticed by
the promises of commission men to
get prices that are never realized
and are thus induced to rush their
product off in bulk to the care of
some stranger, who may prove as
irresponsible as he is untruthful. It
requires more business ability to
develop home market, but once
secured it will be found much more
desirable because more profitable.
Dealers who have no confidence in
demand for honey by their custo-

FOR THE FARMER.



Shiftless fruit culture cuts down
the profits.
1t is always good plan to mulch
newly set trees.
A dressing of coarse manure
is a good mulch.
Moss on the trunks of trees is an
evidence of unthriftiness.
Pack apples SO that they will not
shake about in the barrel
Prune weak growth in Winter
and strong growth in Summer.
Plow the garden thoroughly as
soon as the crops are harvested
Keep down the weeds and suck
ers among the raspberry plants.
One-fourth of an acre in small
fruits will supply an average fam
lily.
No farm home is complete with
out good orchard and small fruit
plot
The care given fruit plants this
year practically determines the
crop next year.
Low headed trees will nearly al
ways bear somewhat sooner than
high headed ones.
Train the growing tree SO that
only dead and injured limbs will
need removing later on.
The head of tree needs to be
fairly open to admit the sun and
air for fell perfection of fruit.
Stimulate the strong raspberry
canes by removing the weak ones
and cut all surplus growth away.
One decided advantage with a
low headed tree is that it favors the
economical gathering Of the fruit.
IF the eggs of a tent caterpillar
can lie cut off the twigs, burn them,
and thus make sure of the destruc-
ton Of the eggs.
1t is not too late to examine the
peach trees for borers. If found,
dig them out with a sharp knife
and destroy them.
The orchard should not be Guilt
waited at this season, nor should
manure be applied until after the
leaves have fallen.
Feeble growing and unhealthy
trees are usually the result of star
walton, bad soil and unfavorable
conditions of growth.
Thorough tillage, manure and
care are all important to the
orchard. Give it as much atten-
ton as crop of corn or potatoes.
When a tree IS healthy, the top
is luxuriant, but when it is weak or
old the top dies or makes little
growth, and small shoots sprout all
over the trunk.
So far as is possible the soil for
Strawberries should be rich and as
free from weed seeds as possible.
Wood ashes and bone dust make
good fertilizers.
1t is impossible for fruit to be
perfect and we'll colored unless the
tree-body, branches and leaves
as well as the ground under it, is
fully exposed to sunlight.
When the orchard is seeded to
clover one of the best plans of man
agement is either to NOV the growth
and let it lie as a mulch or to let it
die down as it was in the Fall.
A Cheap Dip.
