Great Point in Milking.

Because it is easier to milk while the
cows bag is full and full stream will
dow, and also because the saliva from
the calf's mouth makes milking unpleas-
ant for the m;lker, it is the habit of
many farmers TO milk what they want
for the house and let the calf take what
is left. 1t is very generous to the calf
for such farmers to do this. But we
can tell them that it is a mistaken
generosity, for the first milk having
much less fat than the strippings, is
better either to make the calf grow or
fatten than the strippings can be. Most
farmers think that milk cannot be too
rich for fattening a calf. But this ruins
the COW, as by the time the calf gets
the strippings it is tired of sucking,
and will never drain out the last drop
as a good milker always does.-Journal
of Agriculture.

Did Not Fix a Date.

Columbus, May 1O.-The charges of
contempt aginst Secretary F. b. Squire,
of the Standard Oil Co., were called up
in the supreme court yesterday for the
purpose of fixing the time for the hear
ing. The charge is based on the re-
fusal of Squire to produce the books
of the Standard Oil Co., in order that
they may throw light upon the ques-
hon as to whether the Oil trust is doing
business in Ohio. The court heard the
arguments, and will later announce the
date of the hearing. 1t is probable that
the case will not be heard until some
time in June

1t is certain that any crop will ex.
haust the soil in time, whether of grain,
grass or fruit. On some farms may be
seen orchards of apple trees over half
a century old. Every year these trees
have produced fruit, and in return have
received nothing in the form of fertil-
izer. 1t is estimated that an ordinary
apple crop removes from an acre of
soil about so pounds of nitrogen, 40
pounds of phosphoric acid and rs
pounds of potash. When clover is grown
IN the orchard the land is benefited by
having its proportion of nitrogen in
creased, but it will gain nothing in
mineral matteE. The land devoted to
apples should receive fertilizer or ma
nure every year, and when there is a
heavy crop of apples in sight the fruit
should be thinned out in the early stages
of growth,-Rurel World.

DEVELOPING A HEIFER.
A Task That Calls for the Exercise OF
Considerable Judgment on the
Part of Dnirymen.

Much of the value of heifer as q
dairy animal depends upon the treat
ment given her during the two or three
months preceding the time of dropping
her first calf and the first year after
ward. She ought to be kept in good,
thrifty condition, fed good variety
of food, be handled to make her gentle,
and be given such care as is best calcu-
lated to develop her mother qualities.
When heifer first comes to her milk,
the milk glands that constitute the
udder are.undeveloped. With these, as
with many other organs, growth is
stimulated by use.
But the desire to secure a rapid in
crease of progeny in too many cases in
duces the owner to breed the heifer the
second time too soon, and the effect
of this is always detrimental to her
best development. Before the processes
of lactation have been fully developed,
n second process is introduced into the
system that is opposed to the produc-
ton of milk. The energies of the COW
are turned to the growing of the young
calf. One great secret in the develop
ment of a heifer for the dairy is to
defer the breeding for her second calf
for at least four months, and, in most
cases, six months would be better. In
this way all her energies may be de-
voted to milk production. AS soon as
the milk flow is well established and
the danger of milk fever is past, her
treatment, both in feeding and care,
should be such as will enable her to
produce the largest quantity of milk
for the longest period.
One advantage in breeding the young
heifer so that she will drop the first
calf after grass and clover have made
a good growth is that the conditions
of milk production are then most fa-
vorable, and, with good pastuage and a
light feeding of bran and cornmeal or
bran and ground oats, the young heifer
may be kept up to her full capacity of
milk production.
At the start the udder shouid be
rubbed and kneaded as an aid TO de-
velop it. Her treatment should be such
as will keep her quiet and gentle, and
her feeding should be such as will main
tain her in good, thrifty condition.

TWO RARE BOOKS

Added TO the New York City Library
One is an Old Edition of John Wes-
ley's Hymnal.
Two rare books have been presented
to the New York public library by
Trustee Alexander Maitland. The more
important is John Wesley's first hymn
al, an octave volume of "a pages, print
ed at Charleston, S. c., by Lewis Tim
othy, in 1897.
Prior to the discovery of this little
book the supposedly earliest Wesley
collection was an edition-also rare
published in London in 1913, a year la
ter than the Charleston production. Mr..
Maitland acquired the book recently by
private purchase. He would not tell
how much he gave for it.
The other is volume of 1.-THE Laws,
statutes, ordinances and constitution,
ordained, made and established by the
Mayor, the Recorder, Aldermen and as
sistants of the City of New York, con-
vened in Common Council for the good
rule and government of the inhabitants
of the said city" This book was pub
lished in 1749.
