by the way, is an expert amateur photo
grapher. endeavored last evening to get a
photograph of Black Prince, the largest of
Adgie's collection of lions, while in his
cage. Trainer Hall accompanied Mr. Semon
into the cage. but somehow the big Hon did
not take kindly to the idea of being "took, "
and pushing the trainer aside made a
vicious effort to mutilate a portion of the
anatomy Of the daring photographer. 1t is
needless to say that Manager Semon's exit
was more rapid than graceful, and that the
snap shots were dispensed with for the
time being.

1t is often hard work to get clover
seeding on the dry, elevated knobs in grain
fields. Lack of moisture is usually the
cause. But the evil may be remedied by
drawing a few loads of stable manure and
spreading over these knobs. The manure
not only protects the young clover plants
but it also holds the moisture in the soil
checking evaporation. A few times seed
ing the knobs thus will make them as rich
as any part of the field. 1t is usually the
lack of clover seeding on such places that
has kept them poor.

IN THE DAIRY.

The cost of support is in proportion to
weight; but the yield in butter is not in
such proportion.
When butter is worked dry the grains of
salt left in it are not dissolved and remain
in gritty condition.
No matter in what shape the flavor exists
in butter, we know that it is exceedingly
volatile and escapes easily.
Butter that is washed until it is dry and
hard usually lacks that quick, fresh taste
that is in butter not so dry and hard.
The principle advantage with Jersey
milk is that the proportions of all of its
solids are greater and of water less than the
average milk.
A COW should always be MIXED clean to
the last drop in the udder as on that prac-
tce the duration of her milking season will
largely depend.
The heifer that is expected to make a
good dairy COW should always be kept in a
good condition-not stunted in growth at
any time-as this will prove drawback to
her progress to maturity.
Don't wet the cows teats in milking.
The practice is dirty one, and makes clean
butter-making impossible.

Hogs and cows are the principal mediums
for converting the grain grass and fodder

and do not disturb them until the apple

The real cost OF that produced on farm,
other than the value Of labor and interest
on investment, is the plant food removed
from the soil. If large quantities Of ma

eggs, butter or wool, and there can be no
loss or waste as long as the farmer can
utilize such materials for producing more

In many places it is now customary for

Good seed potatoes that are free from
disease bring prices that pay those who
have been careful with such crops. Farmers
who grow large crops of potatoes should
have facilities for taking care of those
intended for seed. As it is at present the
best customers for potatoes early in the
spring are the farmers who buy their seed.
1t is well to produce seed from elsewhere
some years, but it is not necessary to do
80 every season.
