A succession of best crops for dairy
food can be had from an arabic farm,
and the prominent past made to play
by feeding root crops and soiling is
well worth considering. 1t is becoming
a fixed opinion that grass farm is not
always the best for the dairyman.

The average farmer loads himself
down with much poor stock. If one cow
makes but half the amount of butter
another yields, the latter may possibly
pay her keeping, but the profit is all in
the other and the cost for keeping the
two is just the same.

Grapes are usually bagged to protect
them from wasps, birds and other maui
rauders, but these bags also furnish the
