When it is desired to grow especially
large stalks of rhubarb for a choice
trade or for exhibition purposes, it is
possible to increase the natural size
by thinning out all but the vigorous
center buds, simply cutting them off
with a sharp spade, allowing the whole
strength of the roots to go to the
.arge, vigorous looking buds, of which
not more than one or two should be
allowed to develop. To stimulate the
1ill to its utmost, set a large flower
pot into the ground between the hills,

manure of which too much cannot be

QUALITY OF BUTTER
Tests Made at the Illinois University
Station Show That 1t Varies
from Day to Day.

At the agricultural station at
iached to the Illinois university, a
Jest "a conducted last year for the
special object of studying the varia-
lions in the yield and quality of milk
obtained from a number of COWS
specially selected for the purpose,
and the results obtained were very
curious, and in many respects very
conflicting. The experiment lasted
Tor a period of close on a year. AS an
outcome of the results obtained dur
ing the period the officials having
charge of the researches came to the
following conclusions: 1. The yield
Of milk from different COWS under
the same conditions differs greatly,
and that from the same COW varies
greatly from day to day. 2. The COM
position of milk is highly variable;
the ratio of the fat to other solids,
and hat of other solids to water are
not constant as between different
COWS Or for the same cow on success.
sive days. 3. The percentage of fat
Or of other solids is not always high.
est in the smaller yields, but cows
that give milk with a high per cent.
of solids generally show a low total
yield. 4. Fat is the most variable
constituent of milk, and it's variations
are independent of those of the
other solids; therefore, the yield
of milk is a better intedx of the
other solids than it is of the fat. 5
AS regards the first and last mill
drawn, the proportion of solids moi
fat is higher in the first, but the pro
portion of fat is decidedly greater in
the last. 6. Neither day time no
night time is shown to be superior as
a milk-producing period. z. Differen,
cows differ in their power to make
milk from food, and the same COW
varies in this respect from time tc
time. 8. Aside from the influence OF
or environment, each animal eX
hibits individual variations of hel
own, and such variations tend tc
show something like periodicity il

HOW TO GROW RHUBARB.
Production of Large stalks for Exc
hibitiOn Or Choice Trade Is q
Lucrative Occupation.

Families who move on to a new farm
will find that the quickest way to pro-
duce a supply of material for pies,
sauces, etc, is to set out rhubarb
plants. If these are obtained by divid-
ing old hills they will begin growing
at once, and can be pulled a little the
first season. A dozen hills will supply
an average family. 1t may also be
grown from seed. One pound will sow
about six average hotbed frames and
should yield at least 1000 plants.
A practical way to blanch stalks in
spring is to throw up the soil with a
pillow about one foo thick over the hill.
Nearly the whole stalk will then be
blanched and more delicate in color
and flavor. This covering of earth
