Fruit growers near the great fruit
consuming cities have an immense
advantage over the producers of fruit
thousands of miles away. We talk a
great deal about California fruit be-
ing profitable to the growers, but II 10
only because they have powerful or
carnations of fruit men that they are
able to make any profit at all. The
cost of shipping, say peaches, from
California is so great that 1t amounts
to a heavy protective duty In favor
of the local growers. We are In
formed that the freight on car OF
fruit from San Francisco to Chicago
is $3.50 and the icing charge is s125
more. This makes 1876 that the car
costs, without reckoning anything for
attendance. This amounts to 1875
cents on every pound of fruit sent
/. from San Francisco to Chicago, as a
car is reckoned to contain 10000
pounds In addition, the matter OF
time Of transit of the California fruit
must be taken into consideration in
the packing and the fruit graded more
carefully than 1t would otherwise have
to be. Much perfectly sound fruit
must be left out of the packages, sim
ply because it is ripe: for 1t would
be rotten by the time 1t reached the
customer. AS our own fruit growers
have good fruit soil and climate, wit
an ever increasing population to feeS
| there would seem to be no reason why
this advantage of freight rates should
ever be taken from them. There Ia
every reason why our fruit growers
should plant ever increasing quaint
ties of hardy and standard fruit trees

Where the Cream Should Sour.

Some hold the view that, since the
cream has TO be soured before churn.
ing, why not let it sour on the farm7
This is Objectionable for the follow
ing reasons: ]. 1t is the butter-mak-
er's work to introduce and develop the
flavor in the cream, which gives us
the fine aroma in butter which we, as
we'll as the consumers, so much desire.
2. The butter will be more uniform
in flavor when one man, who under.
stands the work, does 1t, than when
a number, who don't understand 1t,
are trying to do it. 3. The proper
facilities to do the work are always
available at the creamery. 4. To most
farmers all sorts of flavors come UNI
der the head of souring. which to the
butter.maker might be most objec-
tionable. s. The maker has made a
study Of the work, consequently is in
a bette position TO produce what is
required than those who are unlearned
Il THIS respect-W. A. Wilson.

Rromus InermIs for Pasture.

Bromus inermis makes an excellent
pasture grass, as 1t shoots up in the
spring about two weeks earlier than
any of the native grasses, produces q
good aftermath or second growth, and
continues TO grow especially late in
the fall. II the summer is dry 1t will
stop growing, and start again after the
beginning of the fall rains, but IL the
dry period is not too long 1t will con-
tinue to grow from early in the spring
until late in the fall. At the Kansas
Station we have grown Bromus inermis
in field way for four seasons. This
summer we have pastured some young
stock. ranging from 8 to 18 months OF
age, on a field of Bromus inermis
seeded last fall. These calves have
not shown any noticeable preference
! between Kentucky bluegrass, prafrie-
| grass and Bromus inermis, and have
thrived we'll on the Bromus inermis.
The grass stands tramping by stock
exceedingly well. 1t is so vigorous
that 1t will run out all weeds and other
grasses, after 1t once becomes well
established. It, however, may be
sown with other grasses and legumes,
and allowed to take full possession in
a few years.-Kansas Bulletin.

Low and Hlah proteln Corn.

The Illinois Experiment Station has
been at work for years on the prob
lem of low and high protein content
of corn. In bulletin 81 the expert
mentors have given us drawings show
ing the differences obtained through
seven years Of breeding from the orig
lnal parents-but breeding in opposite
directions. We reproduce these. Ref
erence to the low protein cut shows a
-nedium-sized germ (Which always
contains much gluten) and a compare
lively thin layer of horny gluten (this
also always contains much protein).
The legend Horny Gluten" on the
cut refers to the double row of white
dots going around the entire kernel
Just below the black line used to In,
iicate the hull Every part OF the
corn kernel contains some protein and
some carbohydrate matter In fact,
the carbohydrate constituent always
exceeds the protein even when the
protein is highest, as in the case of the
horny gluten" A difference of two
or three per cent in the protein con
tents makes a great deal Of difference
in the relative value. as little pro

EaaIe and Cows Battle.

A dispatch from Somerville, N. j.,
to the Drovers' Journal says: A large
gray eagle, the first seen in this vi
cinity in many years, created con-
sternation among a herd of cattle on
the farm of Charles Covert, near
Mount Bethel. The eagle few from
the mountains to the lowlands where
the cattle were grazing. 1t took shell
ter in tree, and waiting an oppor-
tunity swooped down on a calf of the
herd. The mother of the calf and
several cows surrounded the eagle and
forced it from its prey. The eagle at
tackled the cows and its onslaught was
so furious that the animals were
stampeded, but they rallied again and
circled frantically around the calf,
thrusting at the eagle viciously with
their horns each time 1t renewed its
attack on the smaller animal.
The eagle resorted to strategic
measures, by driving the cows, one by
one, across the field At this juncture
Covert. who had been attracted by the
disturbance among the cattle. APP
peared on the scene with gun. The
eagle alighted on rail fence to await
developments and a minute later fell
to the ground shot through the head.
1t is one of the largest specimens ever
seen here and Covert will have it pre-.
served. Four of Covert's cattle had
strips Of hide torn from their bodies
by the eagle.

Des MOines Iowa Nc

Des MONIES, Iowa, May 4, 1908.
The week was excessively wet and
cloudy and unseasonably cold. The
deficiency in daily temperature ranged
from degrees at Keokuk, 6 degrees at
Des Moines and Is degrees at Sioux CITY
where the minimum was 90 degrees on
the 3Oth. The lowest temperature re-
ported was II degrees at hardwood,
Lyon county. From all reports receiy-
ed it appears that the northwest dis.
trict and the counties on the Missouri
slope suffered the brunt of the cold wave
on April goth to May 8. The snow fall
was general ranging from half an inch
to three inches. This measurably pro.
tected grass, grain and small fruit during
the period of lowest temperature, though
1t greatly retarded field work. The soil
is saturated and several warm and dry
Ing days will be required to put it in
condition for blowing and planting.
The reports indicate much uncertainty
as to the extent Of damage to the diff
erent kinds of fruit. The estimates
range from 20 to rs per cent though few
reporters make any definite figures on
the loss. Unquestiona bly, the aggregate
OF injury will be heaviest in the west
and southwest, where the fruit had
reached tender stage. There has been
a great prefusion of bloom and it may
be hoped that the final output will ex-
coed present expectations.
