YOUNG FRUIT TREES.
How to Protect Them from Rabbits
LIS a Problem That Has Puzzled
Many a Man.

I have tried several plans of protect
ing young fruit trees from rabbits, and
have unpleasant memories of some;
especially the axle grease plan. l
bought eight fine apple trees at 371a
cents apiece, and applied the axle
grease as directed in an agricultural
paper, and next spring all but two
were dead; five years later these two
were still stunted. and had made lit
tie or no growth. I would like to warn
all fruit growers against the use of
axle grease. Several of my neighbors
followed the directions of this article,
with equally disastrous results, and no
telling how many readers in other
parts of the country. Axle grease is
an excellent thing on the axle, but on
the young tree il is very destructive.
The method which I find to give the
greatest satisfaction is as follows:
Procure a lot of medium corn
stalks and cut them in two-foot
lengths. With a stout cord-binder
Irvine preferred-tie one around each
end of a stalk, about three inches from
Cilus my SIAM III Ii4QuIt OI SlIlHR3
place another stalk beside this one,
pass string around, tie and proceed
with next stalk, picket fence fashion,
until you have enough TO pass around
the tree. Leave several inches of
string beyond the last stalk to tie
around the tree. These can be made
very fast, and will keep off the rodents
nicely, and will be better than rags.
The stalk protectors will last several
winters. Some use paper and rags for
this purpose, but however cheap and
easily applied they are not altogether
satisfactory; l have known bunny to
have intelligence enough to remove
this covering for his SUPERB. w.

SELECTION OF COLTS.
What French Agricultural Paper
Has to Say on This Always In
terestinE Subject

How can a good colt be selected?
Opinions differ on this subject. Some
affirm it is very difficult, if not i'm
possible, to judge a colt before he is
somewhat matured. Others pretend
that at six months one can decide
what he will be, while Others say that
at is months a selection can be made
on his merits with almost certainty.
AT IS months the ensemble of the pro-
portions of the head, the chest and
shoulders and of the body is very
near what it will be at four years if
the animal has been well raised, the
legs alone frightening slightly.
There are some indications of a
general order that will serve as a
guide in the selection of a colt. A
colt that has a good resemblance to
a matured horse will have very little
to acquire. A colt high in the thighs
should foretell a large horse, but if
the knees are small and the hams
narrow and fiat the legs will be
lank aud puny and the colt will de-
velop little force or value for the
raiser. The colt that is said to come
near the earth is the one to select,
for whatever other speciality he
may have this is superior quality.
The connoisseur can judge and decide
the merits of a colt by a glance Of
the eye, but the inexperienced must
take into account all the knowledge
he can obtain. The growth of the
common horse often terminates at
three years, while that of a race
horse is not often achieved until to-
wards five years. One can therefore
say a horse is fully matured at five
years, but one should not demand a
maximum of labor and fatigue until
six years.-Journal d Agriculture

FEEDING FLOOR FOR HOGS.

strong board fence must be put up all
around it to prevent the hogs being
crowded off and injured.
At one end of the pen an approach
should be built up to the gate, which
can be closed while the feed is being
placed on the floor. The other end of
the floor a crib or pen is located in
which the feed is stored The floor
must be cleaned after each feeding.
Put a long-handled fork through the
middle of a board about three feet
long and six inches wide. With this
the cobs and uneaten portion of the
feed can be quickly pushed off. Hogs
should never be fed unclean material.
The accompanying illustration indi-
Gates the arrangement of the feeding
floor and feeding pen. This floor is
partially under roof. L. Irwin, in
