WEATHER-CROP BULLETIN.
Drouth and Low Temperature in Limited
Areas Very Detrimental to Crops.

Drouth and Low Temperature in Limited
Areas Very Detrimental to Crops.
The weather of the week ending Aug
6 has been characterized by clear days
and cool nights. Very little rain has
fallen and the temperature has been
abnormally low. Crop conditions are
not SO favorable as they were a week
ago. The absence of precipitation has
been extremely detrimental in portions
of Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecti-
cut. In a few instances the severity of
the drought is almost unprecedented
wells and streams are becoming quite
low, pastures are turning brown, and
crops are irreparably injured. One cor
respondent states that spraying has be-
come useless, others state that nothing
but an excessively heavy rain Will revive
the crops. These reports, though COM
ing from almost every state in New
England, represent only limited areas.
In general, however, the crops, though
not injured excessively by the dry
weather, are now needing rain.
Having has been protracted in Maine
and Vermont, owing to the showers OF
the two preceding weeks. On late mown
fields there is yet no second growth.
Pastures are everywhere poor, and in
some instances furnish no feed. Dairy
ing interests are suffering greatly. Corn
is withstanding the unfavorable con-
ditions better than any other crop.
Grasshoppers are doing much damage in
Maine. Fall blowing is impossible until
rain falls.
Timothy that was sown last fall has,
in some places, nearly all died. Hun
garian grass is in good condition.
Rowen. which started so well a week
ago. has received a check. There is
little haying to be done yet in Maine and
Vermont. While the quantity of hay
this year is light the quality is excellent.
Except in northern localities, conditions
have favored its harvesting.
In New Hampshire and Vermont corn
ears are now forming. Reports indicate
that the corn crop is in excellent con-
dition, though the early planted has
been stunted. Some oats have been cut
for fodder. The grain, however, is of q
very good quality.
The fruit crop has been greatly modi-
fled this season by local conditions.
From the same localities correspondents
do not agree as to the outlook. Winter
apples continue to fall, and this crop
does not now promise more than an
average yield. one report from Maine
states that the outlook is for the heaviest
yield since 1886, another report from
Maine states that apples are not plentiful.
Apples, pears and peaches are looking
well in Connecticut. There has been
full yield of raspberries and blackberries
in southern New England and both crops
are reported to be in abundance in
northern New England.
One report from Connecticut estimates
the early potato crop much below the
average. In few instances rust has
injured the crop, and in many cases
potato beetles have wrought damage.
The pea louise completely destroyed some
pea beds. Rhode Island has large crop
of tomatoes. Onions are suffering from
both lice and dry weather. One report
from Vermont states that the gardens
are in excellent condition.

peas somewhat the better. If the former
Is contemplated as a steady summer
diet for years, it would be well to con-
slider the erection of a special summer
silo, preferably round, with small
feeding area, small diameter and a
relatively great depth. Silage spread
over large surface In summer, spells
rapidly and loses largely in feeding
value. If oats and peas be chosen they
should be sown in successive lots at
weekly intervals, the two sown separate
ly, the first rather deeply and narrowed
in the oats two or three days later and
pushed in. A better catch is likely to be
secured in this way than if sown to-
gether. The crop may be either fed
green, hayed or put in the silo. Let
those whose July and August milk yields
prove disappointing try silagc or oats
and peas next year. They may not be
panaceas, but they will help greatly to
overcome "that tired feeling" which at
ficts so many Vermont dairymen when
midsummer creamery returns come in.

An old adage hath it that closing the
barn door after the theft CT the horse Is
not the best method of preventing burg
larry. Vet it is held to be worth while as
discourager Of further pilfering. The
dalryman who within the past few weeks
has seen his cows shrinking and his
creamery checks dwindlng feels in
clined to shut the barn door and stop the
loss. How may he do this best; If he
has planted soiling crops like peas and
oats, hungarian millet, and the like and
has been experimenting the dying pas
lures with green feed in the barn or
yard, he has closed the door before
rather than after the theft-has pre-
vented rather than cured. Moreover,
the necessity for the summer feeding of
grain is greatly lessened. If he has no
recourse to sOiling crops, nothing but
buying grain can lessen the shrinkage.
The Vermont experiment station has for
many years experimental with sundry
sOiling crops, and as Il result of its work
recommends to Vermont dairymen the
large use of summer sllage and of oats
and peas sOwn at weekly intervals and
fed during July and August. Siage is
probably the cheaper food; oats and

BUTTER MAKERS TROUBLES
Influence of Surroundings and the
Condition of Cows.

Churning in a cold room will often
lower the temperature sufficiently to
retard the butter coming, says Miss
Laura Rose of the Ontario Agricultural
college. When this happens, draw off
part of the cream and gradually heat
it by standing the can in a pan of hot
water stirring all the time. | never
advise adding hot water directly to the
cream, as it spoils both the color and
texture of the butter. Breed and the in
dividuality of the COW have something
to do with the churnability of the
cream. Some cows milk yields softer
butter fat, which quickly churns; 9TH
ers produce "A hard tallowy fat, very
hard to churn. Feed Influences the
hardness or softness of the butter fat.
The dry, condensed feed of winter pro-
duces butter fat which has "A melting
point several degrees higher than the
fat produced from the succulent green
fodder of summer This accounts part
ly for the higher churning temperature
during the winter season.
\ judlciOus selection Of foods helps
materially. Cottonseed cake tends to
harden the butter, while linseed cake
has the opposite effect. In winter
there are often many cows in the herd
which have been milking for a long
time The fat globules in their milk
are much smaller and do not adhere
together as readily as the larger ones
Of fresh milk cows. Then there is also
present In such milk a viscous sub
stance which prevents the massing of
the globules have known many Uco-
pie to lose churning after churning
from this cause.
Under such circumstances | would
suggest trying the following plan.
which has been recommended but
have had no opportunity of testing its
effectiveness since hearing it: Pour in
TO the churn as much water as there
is cream and of the same temperatures
Churu a minute or two; let stand until
the cream has risen to the top; draw
OF the watcr which, it is claimed,
washes out the viscous substance; pro-
coed as with a usual churniug. only
avoid having the Temperature too low
or the churn too full 1t is well to in
troluce occasionally fresh milk cow

and improves the flavor Of the butter
Separator cream Is sometimes SO rich
that it thickens in the churn. and con-
cussi0n ceases All that is necessary
is to add Il little water to thin the
cream.
Sheaky butter Is caused by INSULT
cient working and an uneven distribu-
ton Of Che salt. Wherever the salt has
not penetrated a white streak shows
up. More working removes this de-
feet Never mix sweet cream with
sour cream just before churning. The
sour cream churns more quickly, and
as consequence much of the sweet
cream is left In the huttermilk, and
quite a loss is sustained. Do not add
sweet cream less than - hours pre-
vious TO churning and always stir thor
oughly. The only way TO procure gilt
edged butter IS by eternal vigilance, as
that IS the price of success.

lessly placed upon the polished mahogany
surface % per cent commission to the
