3 spurs, d the canes Of last year. . the
natured shoots Of the last growing sea-
son. Not entering here upon the sub
Jet Of renewal. which IL treated In de-
tail elsewhere. we win assume that the
pruning is to be done only for the pur-
pose Of removing supernuous branches.
All the fruit is Of course borne upon
the shoots. which grow from the buds
now found upon the canes; the canes.
therefore, must be removed and not the
older wood. for the latter serves as the
framework upon which the canes are
maintained. In cutting away the canes
all wood which has not properly ma
tured should be removed, and those
shoots which have made an excessive
growth, forming bull canes" are also
undesirable. Medium sized. short
jointed and well-matured wood is to be
preferred, and such wood only. Yet
some Of this well-developed wood must
also be sacrificed until the amount al
lowed to remain upon the plant is re-
duced to the proper proportion. As
suming that the plant can mature the
fruit produced by twenty-four buds (the
number Of buds left may vary from two
to fifty, or more) about thirty buds
could be allowed to develop. These
should be uniformly distributed. &C
cording to the system of training en-
ployed; they may be left upon five
canes, each cane having six buds, as
shown in the illustration. or the distri-
button may be varied according to cir
cumstances. But such is in general the
method adopted in the vineyard for es-
timating the proper amount of bearing
wood to leave upon each vine. AS q
result Of such systematic pruning the
fruit upon the vine is larger and more
fair; 1t is also produced more regularly,
since the maturing of too heavy q crop
weakens the vine so that it is unable
to mature even an average amount Of
fruit the following year. A vine prop
erly pruned and fortified should bear
about the same amount of fruit each
year froi4 the time it comes in full
bearing. A secondary benefit derived

Good Roads.

Good Roads.
Excellent work is being done In New
Jersey in the construction and i'm
provemcnt of roads. The movement Is
said to have begun in 1893 by the or
ganization Of a highway Improvement
association and the passage Of q law
imposing upon the state one-third OF
the cost Of good roads constructed uK-
der the direction of state road COM
missioner. Under this statute 238
miles of macadamized roadway has
seen constructed at an expense of $780,
695 to the state and upward Of a mil
lion dollars to the counties and the
property-owners. People can now
travel upon a hard, mudless highway
in all kinds of weather. It is solid and
smooth as q boulevard from Jersey
City to Atlantic City and from Paterson
to Camden. The work of construction
has continued for a series of years
in 1893 and 1894, seventy-four miles;
1895, sixty-six and one-haf miles; 1896.
dfty-one miles, etc. The cost has been
diminished by experience from an av-
erage Of Sc. 900 per mile in 1893 to 3, 900
q mile in 1897. The soil and other
physical conditions in Illinois are SO
similar to those of New Jersey that
it is believed the same methods and
estimates would apply equally well to
both states. In New Jersey opposition
to the new system has almost entirely
died out and the applications for state
0v
appropriation will be increased from
100000 to 100000 this year. The
farmers have found that they actually
save more than the amount of their
taxes in repairing their wagons, har-
ness and in horse shoes, without con-
sidering the wear of the animals and
the economy of time. The road COM
missioner of New Jersey puts a practi-
cal lesson in mathematics before the
farmers. 1T costs 81 cents bushel,
he says, Ito ship wheat from Chicago
to New York, a distance of 900 miles.
It costs 3 cents q bushel to haul wheat
on level road q distance OF i've miles
and on a sandy road it would cost at
least cents per mile to haul 1t. The
saving on a bushel of wheat with good
roads for distance Of five miles would
be about equivalent to that of 375 miles
by railroad. One mile of good roads
would make saving equal to seventy
five miles of railroad transportation.
Thus every mile of good roads places
the producer seventy-five miles by rail
nearer to the markets. It is estimated
that the cost of hauling zoo, 000, 900 tons
Of farm products to market is 81 per
ton, or just about 81, 400, 000, 900. It IS
also estimated that about 60 per cent
Of this last amount, or $4,000, 900,
would be saved each year II farmers
were able to do this hauling over good
roads," "The real cost Of transporta-
ton that burdens our agricultural
classes" he says, ''is the part of it be-
tween the farm and the town or rail-
way station rather than between the
railway station and the market. The
loss due to bad roads is one of the
greatest wastes of energy connected
with farming as it is carried on in this
country"

Onion Growing.

The most popular varieties of onions
for market are the following: White
Southport White Globe; red. Large
Red Wethersfield; and yellow, Yellow
Globe Danvers. says Country Gentle
man. There are others, but the above
are considered the best and most profit
able. Yellow onions being greatest in
demand, the Globe Danvers variety,
owing to its uniform shape, bright col
or and excellent quality, is universally
accepted as the standard; it will keep
better than any other kind, and even
il accidentally frozen in storage, if
more covering is added and it is left
alone until thoroughly thawed, it will
come out little the worse for it's expe-
rience. The writer has grown no other
variety for market for fifteen years.
Much of the success of the crop depends
upon the quality and freshness of the
seed sown; it is better to pay dollar
a pound more for selected strain of
reliable seed house than to be fooled
by cheap seed; northern-grown seed is
preferable to California. In the yield
Of onions per acre there is very VIDE
range, from two hundred to one thou
sand bushels; and these numbers are
not quite the extremes either, for occa-
sionally crop Of 1000 bushels is heard
of, and it is by no means uncommon to
see crops of less than 200 bushels; but
a man who can average 500 to 600 may
consider himself a successful onion
grower, while 400 to 500 is a very fair
crop. The width Of the rows, the quail
ity and quantity varying from four to
six pounds per acre. of seed sown, the
adaptability Of the soil. and the extent
to which it is fortified, the attention
given to cleanliness and cultivation
these are the factors governing the size
of the crop.

A report from Washington says: n
d. e. Salmon, chief Of the bureau -
animal industry Of the agricultural -
partment, has made a report to the 80
rotary Of agriculture on what is knoU5
as the Beardon process Of making but!
ter. The report describes the process
which consists Of churning a certain
quantity Of butter with cream, and
also the experiments conducted with
the department. The resulting com,
pounds were sent to New York, where
an expert was requested to score them.
He reported as follows:
In relation to the three boxes OF
butter marked Y, Y, z will say that
upon examination Of same my opinion.
Is that 1t is what is known on our mar
ket as process butter" and on that
class Of butter 1 can neither place .

broken. showing that 1t has been much
overworked. and is very salvy; con-
slider 1t unfit for table use; only use
that could be made of it would be to

DR.. Salmon then says: BY following
the directions given in the patent and
using the quality Of cream which one
would naturally take for this purpose
q product will be obtained which re-
sembles butter in some respects. It
does contain, as claimed. little more

ter. but dairymen endeavor to wash
and work these elements out of their
butter. because they furnish food for
bacteria which cause the butter to spoil.
AS a human food the product cannot
be said to be better than butter, for the
reason that it contains less fat and
more water. The slight increase in
heterogeneous constituents amounts to
little from this standpoint. as the same
can be obtained in much cheaper and
better form in milk. Considering the
large proportion of water which the
product manufactured by this new
process contains, it does not seem
proper to call it butter. and 1t Is q
question whether it would be allowed
to be sold as butter in states where
pure food laws are in force. Attempts
have frequently been made to sell So
called butter Of practically the same
composition as this, and they have
met with failure

A letter Just received at the Ohio Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station from Mi
ami county states that a man giving the
name of Oliver Hawn and claiming to
have been at one time connected with
said station is travelling through that
county and selling material for spray
ing fruits, foods for poultry and spray
stun for lice killing purposes, and
claiming that his materials have been
experimented with at the station and
proved successful Another commune
cation from Stark county states that q
man giving the name Of Essig is trying
to sell in that county a recipe for the
prevention of pear blight, which he
claims to be Endorsed by this station.
This party is said to show letters writ
ten on the letter heads Of the station,
but without signature, and claims that
the state, through the station. has pre-
scented him with tine gold watch.
These men are both frauds. The
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station
does not indorse or recommend secret
compounds or processes of any descrip-
ton whatever. and prosecuting attor-
neys throughout the state are urged to
arrest and prosecute. for obtaining
money under false pretenses. any per-
sons who may claim to have any such
Endorsement from the station.
