Cast Away Sixty Tons Of Cod.

Tons of Goldfish are spelling on the
Great South Beach opposite PASSPORT,
Long Island. The fishermen in the
holidays made phenomenal catches
of these fish which, owing to the low
price they commanded in the New
York market, could not be sold at q
price sufficient to pay the freight.
They were therefore buried in the
snow by the fishermen who, expecting
an increased price, hoped to dispose
of them later at profit.
AS the rise in price has not come,
and no snow remains wherein they
may be preserved, the discouraged
fishermen have been compelled ia
throw them away.
In this respect they paralleled the
action of the farmers last season, who
carried bushels of potatoes out of the
fields to obtain room for the new crop.
1t is estimated that the quantity of
Goldfish on hand will aggregate sixty
tons, the major portion OF which will

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

NegIecting to salt the COWS regulsly
is often cause OF the butter not cen
ing.
Milk to churn easily and make god
butter should not be over thirty-ix
hours old.
Dogs continue to make the shep
industry very improbable in portions
of Oregon.
If the seed corn has not been e.
lected it should be done at the earliest
opportunity.
The early pullets should begin Icy
ing now and should be given the bst
of care and feed, that they may mske
good winter layers.
Tt is good plan to seed al corn and
potato land to rye if not intended or
wheat. Land loses fertility if allowed
to remain bare through the winter.
Did you ever think of it, that good
apple tree was worth $50? At any
rate, with wise cultivation and good
business management of the crop, it
will pay eight per cent. dividend on
that amount year after year with but
few exceptions.
Whenever you find yourself able to
do SO, buy atair of Angoras End Jun

protection from sheep-killing dogs.
The dog has great deal of respect
for billy goat and shows it by giving
him wide berth.
In treeless sections the main object
has been to secure tree growth quickly.
without much regard to actual value /;
but no time should be lost in starting
trees of greater value, that will actu.
ally supersede the box elder, with It's
bugs, and the short lived Lombaray

CLEARING OLD FENCE CORNERS.


Wherever IN old fence has stood
the land is pretty sure to grow into
hedge of bushes and trees that unless
gotten rid of make the fence an offence.
Very often the cost of getting rid OF
these encumbrances prevents farmers
from dispensing with the fence alto
rether, Where there are many trees
in the fence their stumps, after the
trees are disposed of, will prevent
blowing the land for years. But
where the fence row is only filed with
bushes, digging them out without
cutting them down is the best method
With a team of horses to pull on the
top when the root is dug around and
partly loosened, it is not long job to
snake out large patch OF bushes.
The land where these are grown is
generally rich, as the fence has held
the leaves from adjoining fields from
blowing any farther, and it is their de-
composition that has favored the
growth OF bushes. The retaining oil
such fertile land helps to grow crops
to be made into manure and thus en-
rich the cultivated fields. By making
the fields larger and dispensing with
the fences, the cost of cultivation is
kreatly reduced. This is an important
;, natter in these days of improved farm

Art OF the lee Sculptor.

| Nearly all of the ice used in the con-
st-uction Of the ice fortress at Mon
treal, and the various exhibits, is cut
from the st. Lawrence River in blocks
two feet thick, four or five feet long
and three feet wide. Strangers are
greatly amazed because the structure
looks as if it had been chiseled out OF
q single block of ice of colossal pro-
portions. No seams of joining places
are visible, but this is easily managed.
When any work in the ice scultor's art
is completed, water is poured over the
whole; the water is poured into every
crack and creyice, speedily freezing
and solidifying it into one mass.
The Canadian ice sculptor is some
thing of n genius. He takes block
of ice, has it planed with an iron plane,
places another block on tor of it SINH
larly planed, and keeps this up until
he has builded block of the desired
dimensions. Then he goes to work
with peculiar kind OF chisel made
especially for ice use and by which he
avoids splitting up the ice.
Beautifully proportioned figures are
fashioned in this way and with start.
ling rapidity, considering the intricate
character OF some OF the work. y
regular geological garden is exhibited
elephants, lions, tigers, camels,
bears and beasts and birds of all vari-
cites. These animals are mounted on
pedestals of various kinds, some Of
solid transparent ice, others OF SEEM
ingly mottled marble and others of all
colors of the rainbow-red, blue,
green, black, pink and the many minor
shades.
How the ice is colored is a myster,
to many, but it is very easily accom-
plished. Water is poured into the
molds and before it has chance to
freeze dye of the desired color is
mixed in the water. Then when it
freezes the sculptor has block of
blue, green OF red ice.
Still more beautiful effects are OBJ
tanned by pouring the dye upon snow
and allowing it to percolate through
it in streaks. Then, when it is frozen.
it looks like glistening marble, created
by sone magician. Blocks of this
dazzling material are used for the
pedestals of great statues.

EFFECTS OF FEED ON MILK.

A bulletin of the Iowa Experiment
Station ives results Of certain expert
ments u feeding dairy cows with q
view todetermining the effect of Ger
tain feds on the quantity and quality
of mill, butter and cheese. In add
ton t. the usual foundation feed oil
hay, 0rn fodder, bran, gluten meal
and oil meal, the dairy herd were fed
tnrnip, and beets for seventy seven
days ald then the roots were left out
of the ration for forty six days, and
then the grain and hay were with
drawn and the herd run on pasture for
sixtY-six days, part of the time with
bran and part of the time without.
The 'eed was all chopped, mixed and
moiitened twelve hours before feed
ing, rs this aided mastication and di-
gestlon. The herd contained Hol-
stems, Shorthorns and Jerseys, and
the effects OF the various rations on
these breeds were separately noted.
The butter resulting from these
various rations was scored by experts
WHO knew nothing of the feeding ex
pertinent.
1t was found that turnips injured
tie flavor of both milk and butter.
This injury is due to volatile acids
which can be driven off by heating the
milk to 260 degrees for short time.
Beets increased the milk and butter
product, and caused all the COWS, even
Jerseys, to lay on fat quite rapidly.
When the roots were discontinued,
butter fat decreased, and the COWS
ceased to gain weight, and it took
morepounds OF feeds calculated to dry
matter) to produce pound of butter.
When turned on pasture there was an
immediate increase of milk, butter
and live weight. Feeding bran during
part OF the grazing period produced
sufficient gain to yield small profit.
The cost of pound of butter was
ID cents from the Holsteins, 12b cents
from the Shorthorns, and 101 cents
from the Jerseys. The Holsteins used
twenty-four pounds Of food (dry mat
ter) to produce pound of butter the
Shorthorns, 23s pounds, and the
Jerseys, 2OI pounds. In proportion
to weight, the Jerseys we're the largest
eaters, but they converted their food
into milk and butter rather than flesh.
For each 1000 pounds of weight the
Holsteins ate 2l1 pounds of food, the
ohorthorns twenty pounds and the
Jerseys twenty-seven pounds.
The butter from pasture scored
highest in quality, that from beets
stood second, and that from the turnipsa
scored lowest.
