B1oating Cows.

There is always more or less COM
plant regarding the bloating of cows
during the first weeks after they have
been turned out to pasture. Doubtless
a part of the trouble is due to the an
imal long deprived of green food, over
loading her stomach and at the same
time drinking copiously Of water.
Oftentimes, however, the trouble is
either due to improper feeding or else
the animal has an attack of indiges-
ton. In either case the remedy is in
an entire change of diet, avoiding any
food that is not of the best quality
and combining the grain ration to such
as are of easy digestion.
The quality of the water drunk by
the animal should be looked into care
fully and particularly if the water is
from a stream in the pasture. If there
is the slightest don't about the quality
of the water, the source of supply
should be changed.

Brief Hints.

Use a penny to remove paint stains.
from glass.
To renovate faded plush sponge it;
lightly with chloroform.
Onions are great absorbents. They
should not be left cut for any length Of
time and then used.
Good macaroni is of a yellowish tint
does not break readily in cooking, and
swelIs to three or four times it's bulk.
Cheese custards, served with thin
bread-and-butt sandwiches, are often
given as a separate course before des-
sert.
A simple and very efficient disinfectz
ant to pour down sink is small
quantity of charcoal mixed with clear
water
Silk handkerchiefs and ribbons
should be washed in salt and water
and ironed wet to obtain the best re-
suits.
Warm bread and cake should be cut
with a knife, the blade Of which has
been heated by standing it in boiling
water.
Linseed oil is better than anything
else for removing rust from stovepipe.
Rub the pipe thoroughly with the ois
q little goes a great ways, and build
a slow fire until it is dry.

Treating Rot in Peaches.

The brown rot of peaches is generally
familiar to growers of this fruit, but
many are careless in Kidding their Or
chards Of the pest, probably because
they do not appreciate the damage the
fungous growth does. The illustration
fairly shows how the mummified
peaches look when attacked with this
disease. Not only is the fruit attacked
by this disease. but the twigs are also
affected, and the growth is much more
formidable during damp growing sea-
son than dry one.
1t seems unnecessary to say that
much of the trouble from this difficulty
could be avoided; that is, the disease
might be checked, if these mummified
specimens were picked from the trees
before the buds appear in the spring.
AS with most fungous diseases Of
fruit trees, this brown rot may be large
ly overcome by spraying. 1t would oc
cupy too much space to go into the de-

Dairy Notes.


See that each cow eats her food
clean.
Cows fed on rich food make rich ma
nure
Better five COWS on full feed than ten
on scant rations.
Try an increase in rations before con-
demning COW.
Skill in feeding will make a vast diff
ference in the profits.
If butter is overworked it will show
an oily or greasy look.
Do not let the cream get thick sour;
churn when slightly acid.
A good separator does wonderfully
close skimming if intelligently han
died.
One essential to success in dairying
is cow fitted for a special purpose.
Fall and winter calves will make
fully as good dairy COWS as spring
calves.
Rich food will make rich milk and
rich milk will make the most cream
and butter.
In dairying especially, economy Of
land means the fewest acres and the
most COWS.
One of the best ways to judge a
cows worth is to milk her; the result
will usually be more satisfactory.
Much Of the butter made on the farm
loses much of it's value before reaching
market by improper handling.
If you are after good dairy COW, it
is not desirable to lay too much stress
on having a good beef animal too.
There is no complicated work about
making gilt-edged butter, if one will
only follow the right principles in the
art.
A pound Of butter can be produced so
as to give better profit than quart
of milk, if proper management is
given.
A thorough washing with a warm,
weak solution Of salsoda, followed by a
hot water bath, viii effectively clean
metal milk vessels.
During the summer considerable care
must be exercised, as the cream being
little too warm or trife TOO acid
will injure the quality Of the butter.
It is often found that the animal Civ
ing the most milk is not the one that
gives the most butter fat. A smaller
yield of milk with q higher per cent
of butter fat may make the cow the
real leader of the herd.
It is often that the color of the but
ter is injured to more or less extent
by too much working. The force ap-
piled breaks the globules and exposes
the hard. white stearine and margarine
in their centers, which is on their
outer parts when they are whole.

Utilize Waste Places.

Fence corners and waste places may
be utilized for the purpose Of planting
shade trees for windbreaks, or even
fruit trees. Where these places have
grown up with large weeds or brush a
simple plan for Kidding them up is to
feed animals their fodder during the
winter in these vicinities. In sloughs
where ordinary crops will not thrive
willows may be planted, as these will
furnish large amount of wood after
a few years. When land was worth
So and $40 an acre a little waste
around fence corners was of small sig
nificance, but now that land has risen
to $50 and $500 per acre one cannot
afford to give up the use of four or
five acres of land on every quarter sec
ton. One writer in Iowa Homestead,
estimates the amount of waste land
due to fences in a State like Iowa to
be DO, 600 acres. This, it is claimed,
might be made to produce profitable
crops.

Benzine to Prevent Moths.

Upholstered furniture may be pro-
tected from the ravages OF moths by
spraying two or three times during
the summer with naphtha Or benzine.
If you have no regular sprayer, take a
small watering pot, such as is used
for sprinkling house plants, and sprin-
kle in April, June and August. These
materials will not harm the most deli
cate fabrics, and the unpleasant odor
soon passes off, if the article is placed
in the air. Care must be taken not to
carry on this work near the fire or
by gaslight on account OF the inflam-
inability Of the agents employed

Tough Onions

Tough onions cut in half inch trans
verse slices and cooked soft in salted
water are as nice as tender onions.
Boiled onions served with a cream
sauce are more easily digested and
more delicious than when served with
drawn butter. To pint of boiled, sea-
soned onions, add one point of cream,
or equal parts Of cream and milk, and
rounded tablespoonful Of butter, ALI
brought to the scalding point and pour
ed over the hot onions. A cheesecloth
vegetable bag Czept for this purpose
only is great convenience in boiling
onions and prevents waste

Grain ane Dairy Farming.

An important difference between
dairy farming and grain farming is
the amount of the farm that is sold
with the product that is of the fertility
of the farm. The man who sells a
ton Of wheat sells in it about ST worth
Of fertilizing elements, and if he does
not buy something to replace them his
farm is so much poorer. The dairy
man who sells ton Of butter has sold
but SO cents worth of fertilizing ma
terial, and if he is good dairyman,
he has probably added much more than
that, or twenty times that to the value
of the farm in tue bran, oil meal, cot
ton seed, or other food that he pur-
chased while feeding his cows for max
ing that ton Of butter. It is in this
way that the dairyman's farm is con-
tinuaIy growing more productive, and
if he does not make much from his
dairy, he should from the crops that
he can grow on his much enriched soil.
