rm,nigrunts as Farm La borers.

A large portion of the immigrant la
Dor which finds employment on farms
is now taken through from New York
to the western states and set at work
upon the prairie farms The New York
state grange at its recent session dis
cussed the subject and passed resolu-
tons to the effect that the commission
er of immigration be requested to in
vestigate the opportunities which are
offered in New York state to such i'm
migrants as are intending to perform
farm labor and If possible to perfect
some plan that will induce these aliens
or a part of them to secure work in
New York state, and the worthy mas
ter was instructed to confer with the
United States commissioner of immi-
grafton at Washington at the earliest
opportunity The scarcity of farm la
Dor in New York state is becoming a
problem for the farmers, and if desira-
BILE immigrants can be induced to get
work on New York state farms they
will no doubt find it quite as remuner-
alive as to go to the west.

Professor Harry Hayward of Massa-
chusetts, discussing calf raising in Ma
iional Stockman, says in part:
The cost of raising calf depends a
good deal upon when it is weaned from
milk and put upon ration of hay and
grain. While calves may make better
use than pigs of skim milk it is evident
that there is time in the calf's devel-
Opment when it ceases to use skim milk
to advantage.
My own experience has led me to
believe that when calf has reached
the age of from ninety to a hundred
days it will do as well ultimately with
out milk as with it and that under
ordinary circumstances food can be
supplied to the average calf in much
cheaper form. / am also of the opin-
that it will be economy to keep it in
the barn during the first summer. 1t
will then be protected from heat and
flies and be well fed during a period
when liberal feeding is essential to its
best development.
A calf thus handled will not only be
much larger than it would have been
had it been obliged to forage for liv-
ing, but will be much better fitted to
give a good account of itself as a
two-year-old in the dairy. believe it
is better business to feed our calves
for the first year in such a way that
they will be large and abundantly able
to do a cows work in the herd with
the commencement of their second
year rather than to scrimp them so
that they will not be sufficiently devel-
oped to begin their work as cows be-
fore they are from thirty to thirty-six
mouths of age.

RREEnING CORN.

The frequent lack Of satisfactory re-
suits where one has taken special pains
to select the best corn possible for seed
is owing to the fact that it is only half
bred that is, such corn may have been
pollenized by most inferior types of
corn-hence the great advantage of hav-
ing corn breeding plot where this
matter of fertilization can be properly
controlled Select the best corn of the
type desired. Plant patch removed
from other corn. Remove all barren
stalks before they shed their pollen
and detassel every other row. this to
prevent the possibility of inbreeding
resulting from the corn being fortified
by its own pollen. This pan repeated
from year to year will soon give pure
bred corn where most of the product
will be true to the type selected. This
is all there is of corn breeding, really
an exactly similar process which gov
ems the breeding of pedigreed domes
tic animals

are assisted by four special deputies,
whose duties are to do any special
work under the direction of master or
executive committee or general dep
uty. Notwithstanding the duties of
these officers have increased year by
year, we have loyal members always
ready to do the work and at a cost to
the state grange of a merely nominal
sum in comparison with the good re
suits accomplished.
These deputies are directly under the
authority of the general deputy, to
whom they report the condition of
each grange twice each year, giving the
number of members, number of meet
ings held, average attendance. general
condition and future prospects. This
gives the general deputy a thorough
knowledge of the condition Of every
subordinate grange in the state, anu
he can give aid to any who are Weak
or in need of help from the state
grange. The total cost of the deputy
inspection, including mileage and per
diem of deputies III attending meet
ings for instruction and the annual
meeting of the state grange, is not far
from $3.50.
The system of awarding prizes in
each of the deputy districts for literary
and degree work has done much to
stimulate the various oranges to do
their best, and the trophies thus won
adorn the walls or are in use in many
of the grange halls of the state. We be
lieve the system should be continued
so long as it can be arranged to give
equal advantage to oranges of large
and small membership alike, but great
care should be exercised in the arrange
ment of this part of our grange work
or weak oranges may become more dis
Outraged and thus defeat the object
sought-H. O. Hadley, Master New
Hampshire State Grange.

Clothes of the Mixer.

Clothes which have been Worn in the
fields during the day are not suitable
for milking purposes. Every mixer
should be provided with clean white
milking suit. Such clothes can be
bought ready made for less than dol
lar and if frequently washed will aid
in securing clean milk. Mixers should
also wash and dry their hands before
milking and, above all, should keep
them dry during milking To wet the
hands with the milk is a filthy prac-
tice.

SELLING FERr1LrrY.

Here is a concrete fact in a nutshell
well worth studying: Assuming that
one had to go on to the market and
purchase fertilizers to replace elements
of fertility removed with growing
crops, it would cost as follows:

ton of hay per acre was removed
each year for 20 years, $40S per

rotation the annual yearly loss
would be S46950; 20 years -........... $3.50
