= scovery Of much interest to gool-
vs.-.- has recently been made about
the Yellowstone river. 1t seems to have
been established beyond doubt that
Yellowstone lake, now the head Of tine
river, once flowed off southwark into
Snake river. At that time a co.Gpara-
lively small stream followed the course
of the Yellowstone canyon, which had
then nothing like its present great
depth. The head of this stream grad
ually ate its way back until it cut
the divide that inclosed the basin Of
the lake, and by thus diverting the
waters of the latter formed the yell
lowstone river.

The time has gone by when spraying
of fruit trees Is considered task that
can be successfully performed by any
novice. When fruit growers first real
ized that their trees must be sprayed 1t
was currently supposed that any hired
man could take a spray pump OF any
make and cover the trees with, o spray
solution destructive to the insects and
fungi. but harmless to, the tree itself.
This belief was the cause OF the many
failures that were early recorded
AGAINST the operators. Spraying Is now
recognised as a science, and all OF our
agricultural colleges are teaching how
to do the work correctly. The advice Is
now given, do not trust an inexperi-
enced man behind the nozzle OF q
sprayer.. Most of the men that spray
are mere bunglers at the business, hay
ing NO complete conception Of the great
principles underlying the operation.
Spraying Is rapidly becoming pro-
fession, and we predict that 1t will not
he long before men skillful in spraying
trees will be In dsmand both In the
city and country. II is becoming evil
dent that the owner Of q small orchard
can better pay an expert owning his
own apparatus to do the work, than 10

The aim should be to produce from
$50 to 200 pound pigs at six to seven
months old for the greatest profit.
says the Jersey Hustler. Keep on
friendly terms with your herd. culti-
vate quiet dispositions. Have the hogs
so that you can handle them with ease.
Quietness and patience will aid In do
ing this. As soon as your hogs are
ready. sell them, you have no further
profitable use for them on the farm.
The man who keeps his hogs after they
are ready to go expecting to get more
per pound will be very apt to lose
money; while the one who sells when
the hogs are ready, generally hits 1t.
Every farmer has to accommodate
himself to his environments, SO Oar as
food is concerned. 1t Is his endsayor
to use that which he can produce best.
It, therefore, requires every farmer
to rely in measure upon himself. He
must think over his business. and de-
eide after careful thought which are
his best methods to pursue. Give the
hogs q large range Of pasture. When
we say pasture we do not mean large
lot that hogs have run In for years
containing not spear of grass. but
nice grassy pasture. Think Of yourself
sitting down to table without any
thing on II to eat and you being ex-
pected to make square meal. And
again. the hogs need exercise, SUM-
shine and corn mixed with the grass,
just the same as we enjoy and require
variety of food.
The man with this good stun and
who Is not overstosised, reaps the
greatest reward, while the one who is
overStoeked, Of course, underfeeds and
fails to get out of his business what
he should. A breeder WHO will accom-
plish anything by permitting his ami
mails to lose in GROWTH, has the
expense and no work done. The fault
with the young breeder is ID keeping
more stock than he can properly care
for. There should be no difacalty IN
seeing whsch is the right road to pus-
sue.

Tn. Dirt in tn. Can.

Dirty methods in the dairy cannot
be hidden. The cloudy milk in the
bottom of the can tells the story. It
is a SUFFICIENT clew to the habits OF the
dairyman on whose farm It was pro
duced. Such an advertisement does
not increase the revenue Of any milk
producer. He may escape punishment
II he is fortunate enough to sell his
milk to a cheese factory or to
creamery, where the manager is weak
in resolution. II his trade is with
private families he will be constantly
losing custom without fully compre-
bending the cause. Dirt In the can is
almost a perennial charge against
some milk producers. An investiga.
ton of their premises win sometimes
show that they are as clean as most
stables. Then whence comes the dirt?
In a good many instances 1t comes
from the dust on the udders Of the
cows, on the clothes Of the mixer
and even from his unwashed hands.
II the mixer will wash his hands. the
udder OF the COW and the tanks of
the COW and wear clean clothes when
he milks, the dirt In the can will
largely disappear.
