The New Zealand Dairyman. COM
menting on the attempts to feed fat
into milk, says:
In 1S74-77 the great German investi-
gator Keuhu. feeding cows on palm
nut meal In particular. and also malt
sprouts. meal and cottonseed
meal, .ciudeo tit-t these feeds in
creas :, directly the amount of fat In
the milk. and for a time these state
ments were hardly disputed. In 1879
the same learned investigator, after
farther experimenting. changed his
views and wrote: The system Of
feeding is only OF secondary import
ance for milk production; the yield Of
milk is primarily dependent on the de-
velopment or productive capacity OF
the milk glands OF each COW, and even
with changes from light to heavy feed
the supply does not increase in prcpor-
ton to the nutriment supplied. tho
same holds true whore the farmer aim
to increase any single component
milk-as fat-sinee 1t is not possible
to obtain one-sided increase OF thii
or any other component in the milk by
changes in the system of feeding. No
such changes can. at any rate. be
reached as Of practical Importance"
But this plain statement from one Of
the most careful Investigators the
world has produced was not accepted
as final. and scientists have worked
over the question again and again in
a multitude of ways.
Perhaps the best illustrations Of
how they have started and how they
came out OF the investigations In many
cases was by Patrick at the Iowa sta
ton. This investigator fed one lot Of
his cows heavily with sugar meal, by
product OF the glucose factory, giving
to another lot lighter feed OF mixed
grain; then the conditions were re-
versed. Analysis showed apparently
In some cases that the cows had in
creased as much as 8 OF one per cent
butter-fat, and the conclusion OF the
investigator was that sugar meal was
one OF the feeds which would surely
increase the fat percentage OF milk
But all the COWS On the trial did not
Increase the fat in their milk, and to
pile up more data another experiment
was undertaken with sugar meal as
one Of the feeds. This time there was
no increase in fat. and the Investigator
ceased his contentious that sugar meal
fed to cows would put fat into thei.
milk.

Amsr,e.a Academy in Paris.

An application has been before the
Paris municipal council, with view
to obtaining from that body a plot OF
ground for the construction thereon
Of an American academy, wherein
young persons Of both sexes from the
United States could terminate their
literary, artistic and scientific studies.
The proposed foundation is to be or
ganized on lines similar to those OF the
French schools In Rome and Athens.
The initiative in the matter is due to
the American National Institute. It
is affirmed that sum OF $500 has
been set aside by the institute men
toned for the construction OF what
will. no doubt. be called the American

Superficial Farming.

There is a time In the history OF
every country when superficial farming
pays better than any other kind of
farming, or at least that is the opinion
we hold without giving the assertion
systematic Investigation. That time
is when inhabitants are few and the
rich lands free and abundant. The
land is pastured over superflciaHy.
plowed specifically and cropped over
specifically. The results are salts
factory. The new settlers, living In
log cabins that cost nothing but labor,
pay no taxes to speak OF. and find 1t
possible to get all the clothing and
other necessities from the products OF
their own lands or hoeks or herds.
With all wants abundantly supplied
there is no inducement to do anything
but superficial farming. The fathers
transmit their methods to their sons.
and they to succeeding generations,
and that mode Of farming becomes
fixed. In time the methods come to
be regarded as orthodox" for all con-
ditions.
Meantime people become more nu-
merous and land scarce. Populations
crowd each other and the value OF
land rises. Taxes multiply. and the
farm expenses become Items of the
first consideration. 1t Is evident that
new problems have arisen that the
old-style farmers cannot solve. The
customs OF generations. however.
prove strong. and the multitude Of
farm owners will hang to them, even
to the point OF seeing their farms slip
away into the hands OF the mort
gagors.
Superficial farming must be discard
ed. 1t is not In accordance with the
changed people AID times. 1t cannot
give revenue enough to meet the obli-
cations that the new conditions i'm
pose. Superficial tillage must give way
to intensive tillage. Superficial pas
turage must give way to q system o:
pasturage that utilizes the soil to a
foot In depth instead OF to n depth OF

Dear Sir and Friend-we had q

and got home to dinner next day;

day the snow was all gone and we had
bare ground and bright sunshine for
a month, and 1t has been pleasant
weather ever since. The ground Is
frozen about two feet and about six
inches OF snow-just enough for good
sleighlng. We had one cold spell in
December. The thermometer went
down to 90 below zero. but we did not
suffer with the cold at all. We have
worked every day all winter. are all
well and feeling well; have built log
house 1Sx1S. two log stables lGx1S. and
are now busy on well. We have 10
cows, three other cattle and six head
of horses. The boys send their best
respects to Mr.. Huchison, and say they
will talk to him enough to pay for not

One Of the worst pests that the apple
grower has to fight is the railroad
worm, called also the pulp worm. and
the apple maggot, says q communica-
ton from the Vermont Experiment
Station. The fruit growers of YER
mont are unanimous in giving this
insect the first rank among their in
sect enemies. 1t is worse than the
tent caterpillar. That can be entirely
overcome by spraying. whereas spray
Ing has no effect on the railroad worm.
The railroad worm. or apple maggot.
Is the cause OF the pulpy. punky con-
dition Of the apples as We find them
now in the stored fruit and in that Of
fered for sale. The eggs are laid just
under the skin OF the apple by a small
fly. This fly begins her work In June
and keeps 1t up pretty much all sum-
mer, SO that there may be worms Of
all ages in the apples. She has a
strong preference for sweet apples, and
has practically ruined the crop OF Tai
mans last year. Still she works In all
NdIieties, SUR as Weil dS SWEEP, anu
causes hundreds Of dollars loss to the
fruit grower. The authorities at the
Vermont Experiment Station frankly
admit that no satisfactory way of deal
ing with it has been discovered. They
say that considerable good can be ac-
complished by keeping hogs or sheep
in the orchard to pick up the windfalls
These windfalls are usually full Of
apple maggots, and the hogs digest
them out Of existence. Experiments
are being made at various places in
the United States, and we hope event
ually to know some more effective way
OF dealing with this pest. But for the
present we must rely on the practice
of DESTROYING the windfalls
