In the matter of care, the stable is
cleaned the first thing in the morning,
the cows MIXED and the milk removed
from the stable and strained. The ra-
ton of grain with few roots is then
fed, the roots being cut up or ground
and mixed with the slightly moistened
grain. After this food is eaten light
feed of dry hay or corn slower is given
and the cows are then watered. A
heavier feed of slightly moistened hay
is then given and nothing more until
about three o'clock, when they are
again fed, watered and MIXED.
If there is any objection to this
method it is in the long period elaps-
ing between feeds, which would not be
good policy if the cows were MIXED
very early in the morning. This could
be arranged, however, by feeding the
main portions of roots and hay at
noon, with the grain foods and light
fee dof hay morning and night.
Cater to the Home Market.
Among growers of all kinds of farm
produce, but more especially among
fruit farmers, there is a tendency to
ship to distant markets, ignoring the
possibilities of the market nearer
home. 1t seems absurd to put forth
the efforts we do as a nation to induce
the relocating Chinese to eat wheat
when thousands of Americans do not
seem to appreciate the finest products
of the farm. 1t would seem as if The

In preparing fowls of any age for
market they should not be killed I'M
til they have tasted for from fourteen
to sixteen hours. Those that are to
be killed early in the morning should
have all food and water taken from
them as early as five o'clock the pre-
vious day. If the bird is full of food
when it is killed it soon decomposes,
and is worthless. Even if the food
has passed from the crop to the bow.
els, the fowl will not keep long, and
the half digested food will give the
flesh an unpleasant taste.
Eggs by weight.
Whether 1t is possible to change a
time-honored custom and sell eggs by
weight instead of by count is an open
question, but there is no doubt that
would be the fair way of doing things.
If sold by weight the people who want
eggs of superior quality and size and
are willing to pay for them would get
them, while bakers and others who
demand the first-class product at the
lowest price would be forced to take
the small eggs that when fresh bring
the same prices in the average market
that do the larger products.
Those who buy eggs for setting
should pay due attention to this ques-
ton of size. Of course, if you are
buying eggs laid by Hamburgs, Black
Leghorns and other small breeds it
would be unfair to expect very large
egg. though there is a vast difference
in eggs from the same breeds of fowls
II Plymouth Rock eggs are bought
for Matching purposes, look to it that
they are of good size. for the fertile
egg of small size from breeds laying
large eggs as rule is Objectionable
for Matching purposes. The eggs
should be of good size and weight to
be worth the prices you pay for them
if from full bred stock.

mand in the city markets and jelly
makers has been largely in excess OF
the supply for many years. Many VINO
have tried ounce culture have failed
owing mainly to improper pruning, or
rather to the not sufficient pruning, al
though in some cases the soil was not
sufficiently rich, for the tree is a gross
feeder. This illustration shows tree
as it naturally grows and the same tree
properly pruned. The trees should be
grown in bush form headed low near
the ground. Vigorous pruning is re-
uuired, the new wood being thinned
out and cut back every year after the
season of growth ends. Now is a
good time to do this and gradually get
the trees in shape like that in the pic
ture. This pruning with fairly rich
soil, free cultivation and thinning OF
the fruit to prevent over-bearing will
bring success in ounce culture nine
times in ten.
Feeding Corn Cobs.
In the effort to utilize every part OF
the farm product it frequently happens
that some article is credited with a
value far beyond it's merits. This
seems to be the case with corn cobs as
a portion of the ration for stock. In
h ar
1T is unwise to bother with corn cobs,
but in localities where all stock food
is high in price, ground corn cobs may
take the place of wheat bran. AS
food corn cobs are of little value, their
main purpose being to tighten up the
heavier corn and hay, and even then
unless the cobs can be ground very fine
and at small expense they will prove
improbable. Wheat bran contains pro-
tein in the proportion of twelve to one
for ground corn cobs, so it is plainly
seen they are of little value except
where wheat bran is high in price.
Unfortunately, in some grades of
ground meal, supposedly corn and oats,
\ much larger proportion of corn cob
Is introduced than should be at the
price paid for the mixture. The only
remedy for this adulteration is home
grinding and mixing of all grain foods.
Sensible AID Profitable Feeding.
An experienced dairyman operating
on a small scale has a system of care
and feeding worthy of adoption by
those whose operations are vastly more
extensive. His stock consists Of mixed
breeds, but all of them are high grade,
nearly or quite pure bred. He feeds
hay and grain stover for rough ge,
and corn and oats with wheat bran and
cottonseed meal for grains. An equal
quantity of corn and oats is given at
a feed two-thirds the quantity of eth
er of wheat bran and a little more
than pint of cottonseed meal. A
small quantity of salt is added to each
feed of grain, thus keeping up a
healthy action of the secretive organs

vegetables, fruits, eggs and poultry
that are fresh Many of the men folks
living in these towns are in business
in New York going back and forth
daily and are in the habit of carry
ing home the commodities of the kind
mentioned used by the family. Is it
not fair to suppose that if these things
would be furnished direct to the fam
lily at home at a fair price, that the
consumption of them in each family
would be greatly increased? The
same state of affairs exists throughout
the country. Then there are homes in
all towns where fruits and vegetables
are little used. All these are possible
customers and it will certainly pay to
work them up saving the cost of trans
