Culling Live Stock.

Many breeders Of pure-bred stock
have yet to learn the important lesson
Of culliug their live stock closer. Es-
pecially is this true in the case of those
who make practice Of public sales
A reputation for breeding stock, excel.
ing in individuality aud blood lines. is
the ambition Of every breeder Of pure
stock, but this reputation is not made
at a single bound. The feeder has a
long and tirescme apprenticeship to serve
before he reaches the goal Of his ambi-
ton. After he has made bis reputa-
ton, it is, Of course, his eudeavor to
maintain that reputation, but many
breeders grow lax in their efforts. They
depend too much upon their past repu-
tatioD. They do not Gull quite rs close
ly as previously, and as result they
begin to lose the prestige which they
have been enjoying.
There is only one remedy for this
careless state Of affairs, aud that is 10
Gull the stock aud carefully castrate all
undesirable males and dispose Of uude.
sirable stock to the butcher.

WITHDRAWING Fruit Trees.

The old-time method of whitewash.
ing the trunks OF trees, says Mehan's
Monthly, is not usually credited with
It's full value. Farmers follow it con-
siderAbly, though perhaps more from a
country habit than with definite rea.
son before them. Prof NJ. T. Matoun.
hortlculturist for the Canadian depart
ment Of agriculture, adds that it is eff.
clent composed OF 50 pounds of lime, "a
gallons OF water aud six gallons Of skim
milk. or this proportion The milk makes
the wash stick better, giving the lime
more opportunity to exercise its caustic
properties, A little glue is sometimes
substituted for milk with the same 70.

Cultivation should be frequent during

widely known, they would rapidly take
the place of the older and more COM

of three breeds-Dorking. Hamburg
and Buff Cochin-nnd carry more good
points than any Of these. They orig
mated in England, where, up to four
years ago, they were raised exclusively.
