BREEDS OF TURKEYS.
Size and Color of Plumage Distin-
gufsh the Different Varieties

gufsh the Different Varieties.
The distinguishing feature in the diff
ferent breeds Of turkeys is in the color
of the plumage and the size, writes
correspondent Of American Cultiyator
The bronze and the Narragansett are
the larger varieties, the slate and the
buff are next in size, and the white
Holland and the black are the smaller
birds.
Next to the bronze, the white Hol-
lands are probably the most popular
and are one of the hardest and most
profitable varieties to keep. Their
beautiful, snowy white plumage, bright
red neck and head and black beard on
the breast give them most striking
appearance. The standard weight is
less than for most other varieties, rang
ing from ten pounds for young birds to
twenty-six pounds for old males, but
the size is very satisfactory on the mar
ket, as it is not always the largest
birds that command the best prices.
The Narraganse which are next to
the bronze in size, have been perfected
in the New England states, especially
in Rhode Island and Connecticut.
Their color is black underneath, with
each feather ending in a point of steel
gray edged with black. This gives
grayish cast to the entire plumage. As
they are full breasted and have a proud
and upright carriage, they make beau
tiful birds. They are strong and Wig

being from twenty to thirty pounds and
for the female from twelve to eighteen
pounds.
The buff and slate varieties are not
so common In the buff the standard
calls for a pure buff color throughout
the entire plumage. The standard
weight runs from eighteen to twenty
seven pounds for males and from
twelve to eighteen for females. How
ever, I believe that these extreme
weights are seldom attained.
1t would seem more appropriate IL
the slate turkey had been called blue,
as the standard calls for solid or
ashy blue plumage throughout. The
female is lighter colored than the male.
The weights range from eighteen to
twenty seven pounds for males and
twelve to eighteen for females.
The blacks are not as common as
any of these other varieties and have
been neglected for some years. How
ever, interest in them has again been
awakened, and they have become
very desirable variety. Many Of our
common fiocks of turkeys resemble the
blacks more than any other Of the
standard breeds.

JAPANESE PERsIMMoNs.

simmon is usually produced from
seeds, but as the best varieties cannot
be relied upon to reproduce themselves
true from seed they should be grated
or budded. Several varieties of the
japanese persimmon are each SO much
larger and better than our native sorts
that there is little inducement to i'm
provement. The picture shows bunch
of japanese persimmons only partly
grown. They are not quite as hardy
as native persimmons. They can be
successfully grated on native stocks

(|,;|.1N 4 |ElE

According to Professor Stewart, the
following is the explanation why cows
sometimes hold up or keep back their
milk, says American Cultivator: The
production of milk is due to nervous
action by which the glandular substance
Of the udder Is broken down into milk
whenever the cow Is influenced by suf-
flcient excitement of the right kind
It depends upon the structure and
function Of the udder just as much as
the sections of other glands do which
we know are wholly subject to set of
nerves controlling this distinct func-
tion. The udder is not a mere vessel
for holding milk that Is supposed to be
secreted continually and gathers In the
udder, as one may suppose constant
dripping of any fluid would fill any
other receptacle. On the contrary, it
is a gland made up of cellular sub
stance which grows by separation
from the blood Of the matter required.
When it has attained maturity or
when the necessary nervous action oc-
ours it breaks down into special
product-milk
Several experiments have been made
with the udders of cows in milking con-
dition that have been slaughtered, and
an examination has been recorded of
the udder of cow accidentally killed
on the railroad when going home to be
MIXED when she would have given the
usual ten quarts. The microscope
showed the minute globules of the It's
sue swollen and distended, but the I'D
der contained practically no milk ex-
cept very small quantity that drained
from the divided tissue when cut
across
We perceive that this function of the
cow is wholly nervous In its action, as
indeed every other function of the ami
NAL Is, and If the due nervous excite
ment Is absent there Is no functional
action. 1t is wholly due to the right
influence on the nerves that the milk Is
produced and flows from every ulti-
mate globuIe Of the udder down
through all the ducts, small and great.
to the teat. Then, If all goes well and
the COW Is In her natural, easily excit-
ed, nervous condition, as soon as the
mixer begins to touch the teats the
COW lets down the milk that Is, she
does not exert herself to oppose the
action Of the nerves of the mammary
glands.

Drinking yessel spread. Disease.

Many poultry keepers make the mis-
take Of using open receptacles, such as
an old saucepan or cracked dish, filling
1t up once a week and allowing it to be
exposed to the suns rays. This is q
serious error, says a correspondent Of
American CuAtivator. Should touch
of disease appear on the farm the bird
affected naturally drinks lot and In
so doing leaves the germs of disease
behind for the others which follow,

PRUNING THE ROSE.
November and March the Pruning
Time For Hardy Roses.


Time For Hardy Roses.
BY judicious pruning one causes the
rose bush to form new and strong
roots, new shoots from which excellent
blooms will be produced. First, we
look at our bush and form an idea as
to how we wish to shape it, because
we wish it to look symmetrical and
pleasing to the eye when not in bloom,
as it does when in its glory of well de-
veIoped and deep colored flowers.
The best time to prune hardy roses
is in November, when they are in a
dormant condition, or just before the
sap flows in March Never prune roses
after the sap has begun to flow If you
do not wish the bushes to bleed to
death. If it should be necessary one
should cover the wound with wax, and
it will heal over in about week. The
instruments required in pruning are a
sharp pruning knife with a hooked
blade, a pair of pruning shears. a pair
of gloves, to protect the hands from
thorns, and rubber knee pad, to pro-
tect the knees from the damp ground
With the knife we do the main cut
ting, and with the shears we remove
the small weak shoots, dead wood or
anything that is difficult to get at with
knife In using the shears it is well
to remember that one must cut in the
same direction until the shoot is re-
moved. Never twist or jerk TAis
will prevent any damage to the bush.
Late in autumn is the best time for
timing out, and March for general
pruning Floral Life.

diversified Fowls.

The question as to the size of bird
to keep is n more important one than
most poultry breeders realize, and mis-
takes in this direction are only too fire.
quent, one Of the most common being
that of breeding from diversified birds.
Of all the tiresome inmates of the
poultry yard big, clumsy male bird is
the worst, and he is sure to be great
disappointment, because large num-
Der of eggs from his pen will be found
unfertile. 1t is the sprightly, active.
normal sized bird that is the good
breeder, the sure getter Of fertile eggs
and, more than that, the begetter of
the right kind of stock-chicks that
thrive and grow well. There is an
other point the big framed birds carry
an undue amount of bone. which Is
waste, and such are less desirable In
the market. Being coarse looking and
rangy, they are passed by for the more
compact birds which show proper
proportion Of meat and bone Then,
again, these big boned and coarse birds
eat more and lay less than the natural
sized ones; therefore never try to breed
diversified fowls, neither hens nor cocks.

New Dairy Developments.

Two new dairy developments that
mean much for the success Of both
farmer buttermakers and creamery
men are the discoveries that washing
butter with water that has been boiled
and then coaled and ehurning fresh
cream in which starter has been
placed definitely improve the keeping
quality of butter. The first discovery,
by Professor Mckay of the Iowa Agri-
cultural college. has its basis in the
fact that unboiled spring or well wa
fer frequently contains germs that
have an unfortunate effect upon but
ter. The second discovery, by Pro-
college, comes of numerous compari-
sons of butter made from cream ripen-
ed in the usual manner and butter
made from fresh cream prepared with
starters The ripening process, once a
starter is placed in the new cream, can
go on during the buttermaking. insur-
ing the butter by the time of packing
to be in perfect condition. The adj
vantages of the Ohio discovery are the
saving of time formerly given over to
the ripening Of cream and the saving
Of the cream from the influence Of
bacteria floating in the air during the
time Of ripening. Ohio ereamerymen
report that butter made by the new
method scores definitely higher than
that made by old time plans. It keeps
very much better.-Farm, Field and
Fireside.
