8 arre!S or Boxes,

The apple sellers in the vicin.
ity of Three Rivers. Quebec, were
polled By the American consul
there as to their. preference for
barrels or boxes for packing apples.
The consensus of opinion was that
more apples of fancy class could be
sold in boxes, but that common apples
should be sent in barrels. The boxes
require more handling, as it takes
three boxes to equal one barrel, and
during the rush season it is doubtful
if the same quantity of apples could
be handled in boxes as in barrels
without the employing of increased
help One experienced apple handler
said: eve like some fancy apples and
fruit of an extra quality for holiday
seasons in boxes, but We prefer the
AVERAGE annie in barrels"

Corn Cultivation.

Use good seed corn. To obtain it,
SO through your cornfield as soon as
the silk is black and select the best
ears. Hang it up in the garnet or
barn. Break up your corn land, disk
it in the spring and plant it as soon
as the ground permits, using no less
than three grains and no more than
five in hill. A week after planting,
harrow it with slanted, fine-toothed
harrow made for that purpose Har-
row week later, and again when
your corn is four inches high. This
will keep the weeds out of the hills
If your land is rich, plant it three
feet by six inches Keep away from
the hill when cultivating, but cult
vate deep until after July 4 then
bring some soil to the corn, but have
your cultivation more shallow.

Dairy-Breed Steers.


The attempt that is frequently made
to make beef out of dairy steers
should be abandoned, except where an
animal has passed his usefulness and
has to be turned off, or where COW
or calf is Improbable to keep for
some reason. A good many farmers
have been fooled by their own expert
ments in this matter. They have fed
such steers and have kept an account
of the gains made and have seen that
in many instances dairy animal will
make as rapid gains as beef animal.
II that were the only test to be made
we would have nothing to say against
trying to make beef with dairy blood.
At some of our stations dairy steers
and beef steers have been fed side
by side and the dairy steer Las COM
pared favorably with the animal at
his side. The difference came when
the animal was marketed. Then the
dairy steer was found to have put an
immense amount of fat on the intes-
tines, where it could be of little COM
mercial value. and to have great
abundance of low priced cuts. The
beef steer, on the other hand, was
found to have put much of his added
fat into the highpriced cuts, and at
time of being cut up for meat fur
nished very large proportion of
these high-priced cuts. This differ
ence was so great that it amounted to
a considerable sum of money. The
buyers Of cattle understand this and
make due allowance. Sometimes they
make more than a fair deduction, as
they do not seem to care to encourage
the making of beef from dairy blood.
1t will not in the main pay any farmer
to try to raise beeves from dairy cows.

Is Norway Satisfied !?

The South Paris Village Corporation
has petitioned the Maine Legislature for
the right to do its own electric
lighting. At hearing before the COM
mittee on Legal Affairs at Augusta last
week number of reliable citizens of
South Paris testified that the lights now
furnished by the Oxford Light Company
have been and are very poor. The most
surprising result of the hearing was the
introduction by counsel for the Oxford
Light Company of various letters from
we'll known citizens and firms of Norway +,
whose reputation for truth and veracity
has never to our knowledge been called
in question, the tenor of which letters
asserts that the lights now and recently
furnished by that company are good and
entirely satisfactory. To what can this
be attributed? Is it an honest difference
of opinion? Is it that the citizens of Nor
way are more easily satisfied than those
of the sister village? Or, as has already
be intimated by some of those whose
names were signed to these testimonials,
were they given long time previous
and at a time when the present plant
was not overloaded and when the light
ing service was better than it has recent
ly been? IL the latter version is correct,
is it not also true that they were given
for another purpose than that of defend
ing the Oxford Light Company at this
hearing, and that at least a part of them
were used for this purpose without the
knowledge Of the authors?
