HATTIE AND HATTIE.
4 New York Girl Who Trains Gen.
trail Park Elephant.

One of the most interesting animal
trainers and one of the most inter-
esting trained animals in the whole
world, probably, are Hattie Snyder,
q fourteen-year-old schoolgirl, and
Hattie" a three year-old Ceylon ele-
phant. Hattie Snyder's rather is Will
liam Snyder, who has been a keeper
of the menagerie in Central Park, New
York, for more than twenty years.
Whether Hattie the elephant pre-
fers life In Ceylon to life in New YORK
is uncertain, though she appears 10
be perfectly connected MI. snyder
who has a wide knowledge Of ele-
p1aants, afirms that Hattie is the
most Intelligent and most amlaDle
elephant he ever saw. She spends
most of her time in cage, about
twenty feet square, in the elephant
house in the Central Park Zoo. The
front of the cage is open except for
strong iron bars, and about three feet
in front of it is railing which pre-
vents the group of interested specta-
tors that are always present from get
ing too close. In the back OF the cage
is door which opens into a court
ward. and through this door Mr.. Sny-
der passes when he feeds the ele-
phant, as does Hattie Snyder when
she visits her namesake; the elephant
also used this door whenever she
goes into the outer world for ex-
ercise
Hattie Snyder lives with her father
and mother, about ten minutes walk
from the Zoo. She attends the pub
lie school, and although she always
stands we'll in her class and is partlc-
ularly studious, she inherits her faith
er's love of animals, and prefers TO
study them rather than her textbooks.
When the two-year-old elephant came
to New York Hattie Snyder at once
made friends with her, and soon De-
ean to teach her tricks.-From john
y Rogers's "a Girl Who Trains an
Elephant" in st. Nicholas.

Clover Hay to Fatten.

The Missouri Agricultural College
has shown that a limited amount Of
corn fed with clover hay can be made
a very profitable ration for feeding
cattle. The Missouri Agricultural
College has during several winters
produced two pounds Of gain per day
on cattle by feeding six pounds Of
corn each and an average of about
seventeen pounds of clover hay. An
exactly similar lot Of cattle fed six
pounds of corn and fifteen pounds Of
clover hay, made gain Of only one
pound per day per head. When large
amounts Of clover hay are not avail
able. we have found that mixing equal
parts of clover hay and corn slower
has resulted in a gain Of one and
three quarter pounds of gain day per
head. Two pounds per day Is rea-
sonably good gain when cattle are fed
a heavy grain ration Of eighteen to
twenty pounds daily. The cost Of the
clover hay and six pounds of corn is
measurably less than the heavy grain
ration, and the gains resulting are
nearly Identical The grain ration has
this advantage-that it will find in the
animals somewhat more quickly and
put them in condition to fulfill the
market requirements.-F. B. Mumford,
Missouri Agricultural College.

Enemies of Fruit Trees.


For q long time hort1culturists and
fruit growers Of the advanced type
have been urging the desirability Of
tilIing orchards more thoroughly than
is usually the custom, says a Cornell
paper. Their advice was based upon
common experience and observation,
but exact data have been wanting.
Cornell Experiment Station, during
the last season, conducted an orchard
survey or a critical study of the west
ern counties of the State of New York.
This survey examined every orchard
in three townships, comprising some
three thousand acres Of fruit land, and
in addition examined every orchard Of
Importance in the entire county-one
of the largest in the State. The results
of this survey (Which are now being
worked OUT are exceedingly instruc-
tive and valuable.
Among the chief enemies Of the
orchard the greatest was found to be
the apple tree. In other words, the
trees were injuring each other in the
struggle for food and sustenance. They
were planted too closely. An exami-
nation of the yields Of orchards plant
ed at different distances disclosed
the fact that the more trees to the
acre the smaller the yield.ain every
case, and that the yield Increased
gradually and proportionately with the
distance at which the trees were set.
1.-The next enemy Of Importance was
sod. The loss to the tract examined
in 1902 by the influence of sod in or
chards amounted to over 100000 BUSH
els. Pastured orchards were better
than meadow orchards, but markedly
poorer than titled orchards. The cul-
tivated orchard gave an average of 30
bushels more than sod orchard, and
this record covered a period Of three
years; it was not taken at haphazard
and should be considered fairly indica-
tive.
'sThe next enemy of Importance was
found to be poor drainage. Young
trees very often do not show the eff
fects of surplus moisture in the soil,
but invariably old trees developed va
rious types of diseases, unquestionably
directly chargeable to the unfavor-
able soil condition. Where stiff, Inn
penetrable subsou obtains, drainage
pays"

Items in Grating.

Grating is in order in March.
Cleft grating is in common use and
well known.
Splice grating Is so simple as to
need little explanation. The two parts
are merely cut diagonally, laid to-
gether, tied with string and waxed. 1t
Is adapted only to small shoots of ten
der wood that will Dot stand split
ting.
Saddle grating is also simple and
useful for small growing plants. The
stock is cut to a wedge shaped end
by two cuts, and the scion is split and
set upon the wedge and is then tied
and waxed. This method is oftenest
used with a terminal bud.

and mature early.
The laying Of soft-shelled eggs
sometimes result from overlooking and
sometimes from lack of shell material.
One Of the great secrets in poultry

dition.

ing intended for unmanured soil.
If the seed potatoes are scabby, they
should be treated with a mixture of
one pint Of formalin to thirty gallons
Of water Sacks Of the seed potatoes
are suspended in this solution for an
hour and half, allowed to drain and
spread on the barn floor to dry.
That bone has great value as ra-
ton for poultry, both for egg produc-
ton and for growth in chicks, is not
matter Of dispute. The fact is general
" recognized that In no other way can
eggs be produced more readily, or
growth made in young stock more
quickly than by the liberal use of cut
bone in the ration.
There is one thing for the poultry
beginner to remember. Start with a
good standard bred fowl Don't invest
a cent in dunghills. They are worth
less. The thoroughbreds will cost a
few cents more to start with. There
the difference in expense ceases. They
occupy no more room, require no more
care, will eat no more than the mon
grels, and when you sell them for
breeding or exhibiting or their eggs
for Matching you'll find the balance
greatly in their favor
Some horses will eat at all times
and consume any quantity Of food
without appearing to improve in con-
dition, although they may not be do
ing much work. Horses differ, and
what is best for one may not give as
good results with others. Good groom
ing is an important matter but there
Is not, as a rule, sufficient variety in
the food of horses. While oats will
continue to be standard food for
horses yet small allowance of lin
seed meal and corn fodder will also
be relished and give excellent results.
Hay and fodder will prove superior to
hay alone.
Those who have flower seeds to SOW,
would find the sowing Of them under
glass satisfactory, should they have
the convenience for it. Many Of these
seeds are very fine, and when sown
outdoors, heavy rains and many other
things often interfere with their germi-
nation. When under glass it is near
ly always ones own fault if crop Of
seedlings is not. raised. Small boxes,
of depth Of three inches, with holes
in the bottom to let drain superf1u-
Gus water are the best to use. The
soil should be fine, made so by sift-
ing, if necessary, so that when the
seedlings need transplanting each plant
can be lifted out without great disturb
ance of the others.

bad one to deal with at any time, it
is especially bad at season when
considerable hard work is expected OF
the horse. Some horses are given to
securing easily, and when such is the
case, care must be used not to fur
nish much feed that is laxative in char
acter, and also to feed more largely Of
concentrated foods than of roughage.
A horse that scours and is doing
hard days work should have whole
oats mixed with a small quantity of
bran as the main grain food, and tho
morning food should be whole hay, all
that he will eat in half an hour then
what water he wants within reason,
and then the grain making the ration
the quantity experience has shown is
proper for the particular animal. The
same feed should be given at noon
and at night, but the quantity of water
may be increased at night. In work
ing horse liable to attacks of scours,
begin the day with him In an easy
manner, and for the first two or three
hours do not push him. Handled in
this manner he will probably go
through the rest of the day in good
shape, and do fair days work. Such
horses should be we'll groomed after
day Of work to keep up the circula-
ton of the skin, and the bedding
should be clean and plentiful.
Killing and PIucking Fowls.
1t is well to make the bird fast for
II hours or more before it is killed,
in order that it's crop and other organs
may be quite empty. The best way
to kill bird is to sever the main ar
terry in the roof of the mouth. When
this is done the bird quickly bleedS
to death. AS soon as cut 1t should DO
hung head down, to allow the blood
to run out Of the body. Immediately
after the bird is dead, and before tho
feathers should be plucked out, pains
being taken to remove all the PIN
feathers and not to tear the skin.
The feathers come out more easily
if the carcass is put in boiling water
for a few minutes; but this method,
although very common, Injuries the
wholesome look of the skin and, it Is
believed, makes the flesh decompose
more quickly. Dry picking is there
fore far preferable and should be in
sisted on.
If bird is to be kept before using,
it should be put in a cool place to
drive out all the animal heat, which,
IL left in. might hasten decomposition.
Some poultry men put the plucked
birds into cold water, which serves the
double purpose Of cooling them and
of making them look plumper. There
may be no objection to it if the water
is clear and they are left in only a
few minutes, but if they are allowed
to soak until they swell beyond their
natural size, it is certainly fraudulent
and probably injurious. A still more
Objectionable way Of Pumping birds
is by blowing them out. This Is bad
enough when a bellows is used, but
when, as is often the case, the dresser
blows direct from his mouth, it is dis
gushing and dangerous.-Farm and
