Clover In Failing Orchards.


Western prairie lands are generally
sufficiently fertile for an orchard
growth and need no enriching until
the trees begin to show signs Of
weakness In vigor from crop bearing,
and, even then, may be invigorated by
use OF crops Of red or crimson clover
grown among the trees, allowing the
crop to fall and decay upon the ground
each year. By this treatment q large
amount Of decaying vegetable matter
Will accumulate upon the land, rich In
plant food and forming a moist pro-
lection from hot summer sun and
deep freezing during winter, Q con-
dillon conducive to, health and vieor
In trees. All lands lacking in humus
can have this element restored to
great extent by such treatment, and
orchards which have been treated thus
with red clover maintain greater Ion
gevity, fruitfulness and greater excel
lence In fruit product, besides such
treatment dispenses with the costly
necessity Of using special fertilizers.
As to the indications when a bear.
ing orchard needs stimulating, the
eminent pomologist, DR.. Warder, once
said: when the growth of the ter.
minal branches fail to make an annual
extension Of at least one'foot In length,
the trees should be stimulated by
manuring the land and giving It thor.
ough cultivation"

Value of Soft Feed.

From Farmers Review: NY ex.
perience in feeding both mash and
cooked feed to fowls and chicks is
that 1t is the best morning feed one
can give. have obtained better re.
suits from feeding mash once q day
than by feeding all hard grain. My
hens lay more eggs. the eggs are
more fertile and my fowls ara
healthier when I feed q mash once q
day. | think 1t necessary because II
furnishes variety. Is economical and
allows one to utilize feed that would
otherwise be wasted, and Il is bene-
hcial because 1t permits one to mix
certain ingredients that will keep
your fowls healthy. My experience
has been that the right kind OF a
condition powder is of as much bene.
it to poultry as 1t is to horses or
cattle or as blood purifier or tonic
Is to people. Powdered sulphur and
linseed meal Is given at the proper
time and is one Of the best muscle
and bone forming feeds. Feeds Of this
kind should be fed in the mash for
best results. l was born and raised
on farm and have always had
poultry. and my fowls have free range
now. take full charge OF all of them.
When feed hard grain in the morn.
Ing the fowls in summer will hunt
a shady place and sit around for a
couple Of hours and In winter some OF
them will even go back on the roost,
but when feed mash they don't seem
to be satisfied and so have to scratch
around for more. find the mash to
be the best morning feed because It is
very nourishing and digests much
quicker than hard grain or any other
feed. | have obtained better results
from this method than any other and
have never had any disease among
my fowls.-David o. Bootz, Peoria

A Lesson from the Forest.

II the forest fails to coax q greater
amount of rain from the clouds, II
does not fail to make good use of
what does fall. The water which
reaches the ground may follow two
distinct courses. Part of It may run
away upon the surface, to quickly
swell the streams and produce the
spring or autumn freshet. Another
part percolates into the soil, being
held there to be used again by plants,
or, passing downward, supplies the
underground flow of springs and
streams. The proportionate amount
of these two factors is Of the highest
importance to the welfare Of the farm
er and Of the adjacent communities.
This proportion is determined by the
topography Of the region. the nature OF
the underlying rock, the character OF
the soil and of its surface covering.
or these only the surface conditions
are within the control of man. No
better surface conditions for inducing
underground flow are to be found
anywhere than those which the forest
floor presents. Its irregularity, Its
hollows and hillocks, its mulch of
leaves and its coating of moss, the
loose, granular condition of the soil
beneath, and the large admixture OF
humus near the surface, all tend to
hold back the rain and afford It an
easy entrance into the soil. It may be
said In passing that this large admix-
ture Of humus is one Of the most i'm
portant factors in rendering virgin
soil SO productive. 1t not only per-
mits water to penetrate the soil more
readily, but 1t also enables more water
to be held. 1t furnishes the mechani.
cal condition best adapted to plant
growth and least favorable to harden
ing or baking. The farmer may well
take a lesson from the forest, and en-
brace every opportunity to add humns
to his soil.-khode Island Station Re-

Reducing Water in Butter.

In order to decrease the water con-
tent where 1T is necessary, the follow.
ing rules should be observed, says q
Swedish buttermaker.
Churn ut low temperature, wash
the butter thoroughly and drain well.
Add the salt before the working Is
commenced. After the salt has been
added, do not work the butter more
until after II has become hard, prefer.
ably the next morning, but then
thoroughly and not In too large pieces
Place the butter in an ice box or
refrigerator after the first working
and not in water. At all times in
making and working the butter the
quality must. of course, be considered
In the first place and the water con-
tent only in the second. High water
per cent is no hindrance for high quail.
ity but must not be gained at the
expense Of the quality. AS one Of
the requirements for high water per
centage is that the butter Is to be
worked while II is still soft, the butter
after 1t Is packed In tubs must neces-
sarily be kept at low temperature. II
there are no affective means for cool
ing the butter at hand, a method Of
working must be employed, which, at
the expense of the water content.
gives the least grain to the butter.

The Production Of an Egg.


Anyone, upon opening after death
the body of hen, will find cluster
OF eggs in formation much like
bunch of grapes, and called the ova-
rum (see cut). These, however, are
but rudimentary eggs, says the Agri-
cultural Gazette of New South Wales.
Each OF these eggs is contained with
In a thin, transparent sac and at
tached by narrow pipe or stem to
the ovary. These rudimentary eggs
have neither shell nor white, con-
sisting wholly of yolk, on which floats
the germ OF the future chicken; and
as they become larger and larger they
arrive at a certain stage when. by
their own volition, weight or other
cause, they become individually de-
tached from the bunch, and fall into
a sort of funnel leading into pipe
or passage way called the oviduct-
this organ in the hen being from 22
to &c inches long. During the pas
sage of this egg or ovum to the outer
world it becomes coated with success
sive layers of albumen-the white
which is secreted from the blood-ves-'
sells of the oyiduct in the form of u
thick gliary fluid, and is prevented
from mixing with the yolk by the
membrane or sac which surrounded II
before 1t became detached from the
cluster. 1t is also strengthened by
a second and stronger membrane.

event. For, though not spoken o..
there was firm belief and promise of
a meeting again in the future not
very far off. Israel held his little
daughter to his heart, and then laid
her hand in Cluny's without a word;
the charge was understood. When
the last few minutes came, and the
men were trooping to the anchor, Doc
tor Verify raised his hands, and the
three or four in the dim, small cabin
knelt around him, and so their fare
well was prayer and their parting a
blessing.
Israel and Doctor Verify walked
away together, and for a mile neither
of them spoke word. AS they came
near to Sandy's, however, Israel said:

Good night, Israel. Have you told
Martha?"
Not yet. She will fret every day
till the change comes. Why should
we have hundred frets when dozen
may do?"
But when Israel went into Martha's
presence something made him change
his mind. The mother had been weep.
ing, and began TO weep afresh when
she saw her husband. He anticipated
her sorrowful questions, and with an
assumption of cheerfulness, told her
how happy and hopeful Jane and
Cluny seemed to be. 1T did not feel
like a parting at all, Martha" he
said, "and indeed there was no need
for any such feeling. We are going
ourselves very soon now"
The words were spoken and could
not be recalled, and he stood, in a
moment, ready to face the storm they
might raise. Martha looked at her
husband with speeches. wonder and
distress, and he was more moved BY
this attitude than by her usual garru-
lous anger. He sat down by her side
and took her hand, saying:

1T is another friend gone" he said
mournfully to his own heart; lover
and friend are put far from me and
mine acquaintance into darkness"
Cluny was SO much troubled and
affected by this visit that Israel
thought it well to take him 20 see the
ship which was to carry him to the
solitudes of the great waters and the
safety of the New Yorld. He was i'm

Chicago Has New Dairy Laws.
The Chicago city council has Just
passed some new and stringent laws
relating to the milk traffic. There
has been for long time much COM
plant Of the very loose way In which
milk was bought and sold in that
city. Its handling was orten conduct
ed under conditions that were likely
to make milk conveyor of disease.
Moreover, in some of the poorer To-
calities the milk sold for whole milk
was both skinned and watered. In
many cases 1t was so nearly sour that
its use for children's food resulted In
much sickness and some mortality.
The new laws create a milk and
food department in the board OF
health. One of the most startling in
novations is the rule that all cans
containing skim milk shall be paint
ed bright red. This is because the
sale of skim milk has been largely
conducted under the pretense OF sell
ing whole milk. 1t Is not desired TO
prevent the sale of skim milk, but
only to prevent its sale as unskimmed
milk. The cleanliness of cans and
other milk-holding utensils is to be
rigidly enforced.
Mixtures of any two or more Of the
following articles is prohibited:
Whole milk, SKINNED milk, cream,
condensed milk and buttermilk. Cans
containing any one OF the foregoing
are required to be labeled in three
inch letters. The caps of bottles are
similarly required to be stamped. The
test provided for milk is 8 per cent
butter fat and per cent other solids,
a total of IL per cent solids. For
cream the minimum fat must be 10
per cent No skim milk can be sold
II 1t contains less than s.5 per cent OF
solids, including butter fat. Watered
milk, adulterated milk and impure
milk will not be permitted to be sold
at all, nor can the milk be sold from
cows diseased or kept In filthy con.
dition or fed on slops or refuse. Any
attempt to sell such milk will result
in a fine of from S. to 5000. Impure
or condemned milk must be des-
troyed. Cow stables must be washed
daily and diseased animals must be
kept away from the well ones. Refuse
matter must not henceforth be stored
In dairies.
AS a notice that the laws adopted
Monday last are to be enforced. the
milk inspectors on Tuesday seized
twelve cans Of watered milk and
poured their contents into the gutter.
The men that sent them cannot be
fined, as they are outside the jurisdic-
ton of the city. II Is doubtful, how.
ever If they send any more watered
milk to Chicago.

Hogs on Sweet Potatoes.

Bulletin 122 of the Alabama Sta.
ton says: From November 13 to De-
cember IS, 1900, a period of IS days,
two shoats were penned on sweet po-
tatoes growing on poor sandy soil, and
furnished daily per head with two
pounds ground corn and one pound
ground cowpeas, which was regarded
as half ration. The total weight at
the beginning of the test was 231
pounds, and during the FIVE weeks The
two shoats made a total gain of 81
pounds, requiring besides sweet pc.
tatoes, 3.13 pounds OF grain per pound
of growth. The potatoes were not
eaten with much relish, and after be.
ing rooted up they were left on the
surface, some of them remaining there
until they decayed. Probably the
waste would have been less If less
grain had been fed. The composition
of the sweet potato leads us to expect
that 1t would be advisable not at any
time to confine shoats to sweet po-
tatoes alone, but to give them while
on the potato field little heterogeneous
food. such as cowpeas. peanuts. etc.
