While the bicycle policemen were kept busy In the
different boroughs yesterday, 1t was left to one OF
the squad in Brooklyn to make a rather extraordi-
nary arrest. The policeman had been Kept pretty
busy chasing the fast riders and he was eVoehuy
getting tired OF his labors. bunch OF scorchers
swept past him and when he managed TO catch UP
with them they were near the creek not FAR from
Coney Island. 1t about p m. and the pain
was thronged with men, women and children Inc
scorchers paid no attention 10 the repeated calls OF
the policeman. The officer. seeing that the law
breakers would not obey him. drew his wheel along
side one OF the scorchers and swung deliberately
into him Both riders went down with bang. and
IT was a wonder that dozens OF others ala not 60

policeman had the satisfaction OF capturing pris.

are yielding according to number Of
matured plants when winter set in,
but cannot say. At this writing, near
the close of the strawberry season, the
rows are a mass of sorrel and other
weeds, and it will be about as much to
clean them out as if the plants had
been set three months earlier.
Two lessons may be drawn from
this. One Is that summer setting, I'M
der the most favorable weather condi-
tions, should not be delayed beyond
Aug. 1. AS plant growers dislike to
dig plants so early unless paid fabu-
lous price, it behooves planters to grow
a stock of their own by early spring
planting upon very rich soil. The sec
ond lesson is, do not plant in summer
unless you can find time to remove the
mulch and clean the ground in early
spring. This used to be the practice of
]. Knox of LUCINDA fame, who grew
strawberries which brought so cents
per quart.

Egg raising is carried on now not only
far more extensively, but far more sys-
tematically than ever before. The
breeds of chickens everywhere have
been improved, though more in some
parts of the country than in others,
and the Improvement everywhere con-
tinues. There are many great chicken
farms and many chicken raisers that
confine themselves to special breeds.
The common stock also has been i'm
proved everywhere more or less.
Without regard to their actual price
at the moment. commercial eggs may
vary in value as much as 5 cents a
dozen. Handsome, large, selected, high
grade eggs may be worth 8 cents a
dozen more than ordinary eggs. These
superior eggs may be the production of
special breeds of stock, but the eggs of
comparatively ordinary stock packed
with care might bring half cent or
cent more dozen than the same eggs
packed as they run. More and more
egg raisers give attention to such de-
tails nowadays, culling out eggs that
are dirty or discolored and packing
them by themselves to sell, though
they may be as big and heavy and
good as the others, at less than regular
price, but more than making this good
by the added price obtained for the
others, due in great measure to their
sightliness of appearance. More hand
some eggs may be seen for sale in re-
tail stores now than ever before.-New

Rfpening Cheese.

The results of some valuable expert
ments on the above subject are report
ed by Professor Dean in the twenty
fourth annual report of the Ontario
Agricultural college. Details of how
the experiments were conducted need
not here he given, but the following
are the conclusions which were arrived
at by the experimenters:
The cheese lost considerably more
during one months curing when kept
at a comparatively high temperature.
This was true for each month during
the experiments, and also for the sea-
son. The average per cent of shrinkage
during the season for one month in
cheese weighing about 80 pounds,
cured at 60 degrees f., was $40 per
cent, cheese cured at GO degrees f..
lost 3.S5 per cent in weight and cheese
cured at SO degrees f. lost 4.31 per
cent.
The quality of the cheese was very
much better by curing at 60 degrees f.
The average score for the season for
cheese made in the college dairy was
nearly three points in favor of cheese
cured at 60 degrees F., as compared
with similar cheese Crom the same
vaO cured at &c degrees F., and five
points higher compared with those
cured at 60 degrees f. The differ,
ence was more marked still in Sep
TENDER and October cheese. The flavor
was very much better in the cheese
cured at 60 degrees F., and the texture
was a marked improvement. Cheese
cured at high temperature goes off in
flavor quickly and has a sandy or
mealy texture. The cheese made in
October and cured at 60 degrees F..
was considered to be worth from one
half to l cent per pound more than
similar cheese cured at 70 to rs de-
grees f. Cheese cured at the lower
temperature has a very much better
keeping quality.

WHEN CHICKENS THRIVE.
Some Kind of Meat as Well as Grain
Must Be Fed.

Experiments by the New York agri-
cultural experiment station show that
chickens do not thrive so well on grain
feeding alone as on some form of ami
NAL food. The same is true of ducks.
The addition of animal nitrogen to the
rations makes up for the grasshoppers
and earth worms of natural poultry
life. The tests demonstrated that poul-
try fed on animal and vegetable food
gained weight and matured more rap
idly than others and at a smaller cost
of food. In one experiment it took the
meat meal ration chicks AZ days to
gain their first pound and 30 days to
gain the second. The grain fed birds
needed 81 days for their first pound
and 50 days more for their second.
With the ducks the results of the
tests with the contrasted rations were
equally convincing. Both lots in this
instance were fed with green alfalfa
in addition to other foods and had
plentiful supplies of sand and coarse
grit. The animal meal birds soon be-
gan to develop rapidly and evenly, but
the grain fed ducklings became thin
and uneven in size. The latter would
neglect the troughs Of apparently
wholesome food to chase stray grass
hopper or fly, while the meat fed
ducks lay lazily and philosophically in
the sun and paid no attention to bee or
beetle. The meat fed ducks all lived
and thrived, but one-third of the others
departed this life before the fifteenth
week of the contrasted feeding. The
survivors then We're fed on the meat
rations and made rapid gains, but they
never overcame the disadvantage of
their bad start.-St. Louis Post-Dis-
patch.

REARING TURKEYS.
An English Authority Says the Amer
Acan Idea Right to Start with.

An English Authority Says the Amex-
lean Idea Right to Start with.
Turkeys are generally considered to
be the most delicate of poultry and
very difficult to rear. says an English
exchange, but Mr.. w. B. Tegetmeier,
who Is a very great authority in such
matters, maintains that the treatment
Of turkeys is generally misunderstood
and that the cause of delicacy and
mortality among them is generally
that they are reared on the tainted
ground of farmyards or in their imme-
date vicinity. In America, where tur-
keys are allowed to roam as they will
and roost in trees, the hens make their
own nests and generally, unless the
season be exceptionally unfavorable,
bring every chick to maturity.
OF course the chicks are sometimes
attacked by rats and other vermin, but
the number of birds killed in this man
ner is comparatively Insignificant
The plan of rearing turkeys absolute
~ unprotected has been followed by
Sir Walter Gilby at Elsenham, Essex,

greatest success. The birds excel both
in plumpness and in flavor, and the
huge amount of meat on them is prob
ably due to the fact that they use their
wings in flying, and therefore the mus
cles of the breast which work the
WINGS are properly developed. At
Elsenham the turkeys are fed with the
pheasants and every morning come up
to the hall to receive the house scraps,
with the result that they are finer, bet
ter birds than those fattened in captiv-
ity.
Mr.. Tegetmeier advised all who can
do so to allow their turkeys to live an
entirely natural life in the open, not
shut in farmyards or even in field
near the house. Reared in the same
way as pheasants, they find the great
er part of their food for themselves,
and under natural conditions they
thrive far better than it is possible for
them to do on ground which has be-
come tainted, as farmyard must be,
even though an immensely OF care and
trouble be expended upon them.

givehSto the smaD mixer than to the
large beef maker. The good mixer, If
her digestion is good, can change more
of her food into milk than another ami
NAL can convert into beef or fat. A
good deal of this food that is given to
the mixer is converted directly into
milk and is thus more profitable than
when fed to the beef cattle.
The nervous animals mechanism Is
more easily deranged than that of the
heavy, beef making animal A pillow
horse can stand more abuse than the
high strung race horse. Many dairy
men do not appreciate this thoroughly
either in their feeding or caring for
good milk cows AS the whole value
of the animals products depends very
closely upon the condition of her diges-
ton study should be made constantly
of the cows health. In a normal con-
dition she can take great amount of
food and convert it directly into milk.
This food should be given with the
best possible caution, so that it will not
injure the health of the animal. Give
all to the COW that she will eat up
clean is a good rule to go by, but if her
appetite declines there is something
wrong with her digestion that needs
instant attention. Very frequently this
cause is so simple that one overlooks
it. In nervous COW a sudden fright,
undue excitement or running in the
field or anything that will upset the
nerves may cause the flow of milk to
stop temporarily and upset the diges-
ton so that the full quantity of milk
will not be given for weeks. 1t is to
guard against such slight accidents
that the dairyman must exercise his
supervision and authority. His cows
are high strung milking machines that
easily give out under abuse or misuse.

SPRAYING POTATOES.
A Paying Practice-When and How
to Apply the Mixture.

No farmer can afford the loss of one
third of his crop. Yet potato growers
who do not use bordeaux mixture Of
the Vermont station, which in a recent
bulletin gives the following practical
advice:
1t pays to spray potatoes if done
rightly The practice of the Vermont
experiment station is to use paris green
for the beetles during June. During
July and August two or three applica.
lions are made of ,rdeauX-paris green
mixture. This mixture consists of six
pounds copper sulphate, four pounds
lime, half pound paris green and a
barrel 40 or so gallons) water. Stake
the lime and dilute with about half
the water; dissolve the sulphate in the
other half; then pour this yitriol solu-
ton into the lime water, meanwhile
stirring thoroughly. Add the paris
green, and the mixture is ready for use.
Spraying of early potatoes is begun
about July / and of later potatoes
about the middle of July. A second
application is made two or three weeks
after the first. A third application
follows two or three weeks after the
second if needed Some years this
third application does little good; other
years it saves the crop from late blight
or rot.
How shall the mixture be applied?
The object is to cover the upper sur
face of the leaves with thiDIayer Of
the mixture. There is no danger to
the vines from using too much, and
most of them make the mistake of APP
plying too little. In a small field the
mixture may be put on with a sprin-
king can. For an acre or more a
spray pump is desirable. There are
many of these on the market. The
simplest and therefore the best way to
begin is to have a good strong pump
mounted on barrel which can be car
ried through the field in either COM
mon one horse wagon or, better, on a
special two wheeled cart (wheels six
feet apart, to straddle two rows, while
the horse walks between them. One
or two hose with MOBILES run from this
pump can be directed by one or two
men riding or, better, walking. In the
latter case each hose should be ten
feet or more in length
A good spraying outfit is largely
homemade, and each man will soon
modify the details of this method to
meet his own conditions. The above
suggests good way to begin.

NERVES AND FOOD.
Nervous Cows Give the Grenteat
Amount of Good MILK.

Nervous Cows GIVE the GreAteHt
Amount of Good MILK.
1t Is the nervous COW that gives the
greatest amount Of good milk, says G.
w. Jones in the Boston Cultivator.
One inclined to go to fat makes an ex-
cellent beef COW, but relatively poor
mixer. AS the nervous cow is apt to
be smaller in proportion than large,
fat, beef making COW, the idea gains
some Roadway that she requires less
food. Indeed, there is a tendency In
some quarters to reason that a COW
needs food In proportion to her size
that is, large COW requires more
than small one. This is an error of
most pronounced order. 1t is nervous
energy that absorbs and uses up food,
and 1t requires more to feed such a ma
ture than it does one of a phlegmatic
disposition. If anything the opposite
to what Is true in general practice
should be observed. More rich Id
