propose to do without you. We know
you are loyal but your skin is too black
and your Negro smell is offensive; we
cannot sit in coup Gil with you, so keep
OUT" and thus We are out. How can
we under present Louisiana silk stock

pull off our coats and work? For whose
success, the present bosses, who have
the ettrontery to say that The Negro
may hold office but they will not be Of

made them arrogant, and dangerous to
the Negroes political future. We will

Inspection of Nursery Stock.

Several foothill ranchers are much
enraged at the appearance of the red
scale in their midst, recently imported
into their district with some nursery
stock from San Bernardino County.
Several orchards had been planted
before the discovery was made, while
other planters, becoming aware Of
this, refused to take the trees even
after fumigation.

quently herald the fact that the Los
Angeles inspectors are incompetent,
etc., but however much they deserve
censure, it would be we'll to remember
that people who live in glass houses,
ETC."
In justice to the nurseryman, who
is man of unimpeachable integrity,
we withhold his name, and may say
that as soon as he made the discoery
he took every possible means by fumi-
cation and spraying to overcome the
pests. He also found that a large
sycamore tree growing in his nursery
contained much mistletoe, and was
alive with red scale. It was not gen.
orally known that mistletoe is a
great breeder of red scale, and it
would be well for orchardists to des-
troy any in the vicinity of their or
chards.-[California Cultivator]

Success of Egg Production.

The Santa Barbara Fish and Game
Protective Association is now sat
isfied of the success of an dXperi-
ment made here in attempting to stock
the country with English ring-necked
pheasants; beautiful birds. Last sea-
son the association secured eggs and
Matched several dozen pheasant chicks.
These when partly grown, were set at
liberty on the Santa Anita Rancho
near Garviota. A county ordinance was
secured prohibiting their destruction.
The question was, would the birds live
through the winter. A member of the
association, who has just come from
the north of the county states that he
saw quite a number Of the birds a week
ago in the Santa Anita neighborhood.
They seemed wild, but were perfectly
healthy. 1t is thought that they will
do well in this climate. The brooding
season is now coming on. and it is
thought that next year there will be
quite number Of the birds in the
county. The young birds soon to be
hatched will in all probability be very
hardy young chicks.

Care of Milk and Churning.

AS soon as drawn from the COW, put
the milk where no bad odors can reach
it, or, better, as soon as a pail is
filled, strain it into the can, and place
in a tank of cold water or run through
the separator, if one is used. If ice
is plentiful, reduce the temperature Of
the water to As deg, and practically
all the cream will be obtained. Do
not mix the nights and mornings
milk if the best grade of butter is
expected. Change the water in the
tank often enough to prevent it's be-
coming foul. If the water is kept at
about 55 deg, practically all the cream
will rise in twentyfour hours. Skim
and when enough is added for
churning raise to a temperature of 60
to 65 deg. to ripen. Hasten the ripen-
ing by using sour skim milk as a
starter. In winter churn at 65 deg;
in summer IS or 60 deg. is preferable.
AS soon as the granules are the size
of wheat grains draw off and wash
until the butter milk Is removed.
Work, salt and market as soon as pos
sible. If you are so unfortunate as
to get poor grade of butter it must
be consumed at once or it will soon
be unfit for use.-[Globe Democrat.l

as the result of the immediate in
f1uenceof pollen. In one case. sweet
corn, the strain of which had been
kept pure for three generations, when
crossed with yellow dent corn produc-
ed ears having smooth yellow dent
kernaIs, with starchy endosperm like
the male parent. In the other case a
white dent corn, known in many dis
tricts as Hickory King, the purity Of
whose immediate descent was beyond
question, when crossed with Cusco,
plumbeous-color soft flour corn,
produced kernels of plumbeous color,
or with plumbeous colored spots and
little corneous endosperm in these
characters resembling the male pa

Producing Early Peaches.

]. III. Hale, the great American
peach grower, is reported to have said
that he gets peaches two weeks earlier
by the following method: In the mid
die of the growing season put a
strong wire around a large arm Of the
tree and twist it fairly tight. This
checks the flow Of sap and causes the
buds to form earlier and in great num-
ber. The fruit on the branches of this
arm will ripen two weeks earlier than
that on the untreated branches, and
will be much more highly colored.
But this part of the tree will be so
weakened by the treatment that it
should be cut away after fruiting,
that new shoots may come and take
its place. Thus one large arm or
limb of a tree may be forced each
year.

Breeding Pheasants.

Any one having an intimate knowl-
practical poultry keeping experience,
knows that an egg is composed mostly
Of water, and also that for six
months Of the year hen secures about
one-half the food she consumes from
grass bugs, weed seeds and other mate
rials. One hundred pounds of grain
fed from the bin combined with such
other food is ample for the production
of 200 eggs in a year-and what is
still more to the point, there are many
farms where some Of the hens are now
laying over zoe eggs by actual count
Trap nests are fast making it possible
for poultrymen to keep accurate ac-
count Apf individual egg production;
and while a few lightheads may be
tempted to exaggerate, still there are
fanciers and writer's whose regulations
cannot be assailed.
1t is nothing unusual for an extra
good COW to produce twice the guam
tity Of milk that an ordinary COW does
for year; then, why cannot an extra
good hen double the product Of an or
dinary one? Any old hen will lay 1901
eggs. If she does not, then you should
know it and use the ak. Egg produc-
tion is not governed by the digesti-
bility, seasonableness. and last, but
not least, the proper proportion and
mixture of foods, so as to contain the
exact elements needed to support life
and supply egg producing nourish-
ment.
Exercise.-No pounltry keeper should
ever foget this word, for it is the Sc
cret of egg production, of physical
perfection and the best safeguard
against disease. Under no circu'm-
stances should one attempt the man
agement of an egg farm without sup
plying scrtching quarters preferably
the shed plan;) then keep the f1ocks
busy, and he will be richly rewarded
with great quantities of "hen-fruit. VI
