BlOATINC ON MILK FOAM.
Farmer Loses Calves in This Way
Gets Good Results from Sep
arated Milk.

Il have had some experience in calf
feeding that might be interesting to
some of your readers, and if some one
else has had the same trouble | would
like tC hear from him. When | first
got my hand separator, l fed the milk
to the calves without taking the foam
off; it would be two or three inches
deep in each pail. | had three calves
die from bloat. They would commence
to bloat as soon as they drank the
milk, and died in from two to three
hours. AS soon as l made up my mind
that it was the foam that killed them, |
SKINNED the foam off. Then l had no
more calves die for about three
months, when one of the boys got
careless and went out one evening and
fed one calf without taking off the
foam; next morning it lay dead where
he mad fed it, all bloated. Since that
we are very careful to take the foam
off, as l feel certain that it is the
foam that kills them. I have ten fine
calves a year old last fall, raised on
separator milk, and ten more three
to four months old, that are doing
fine. A year ago last fall, l let one
calf suck the cow all winter to see
how it would compare with the ones
that had the separated milk, but |
could see no difference. samuel Fry

TRIMMING BERRY BUSHES.
Some Suggestions for the Thinning
Out of the Old Brush-The
Time to Do It.

When l began raising blackberries
I cut out the old brush as soon as the
crop was all picked. But l found this
was not the best way, as the wind
often breaks down the young plants
when nothing is left to support them
Also there is much work at that time,
the weather is hot, and the work is
disagreeable, as l am wearing thin
clothes and get badly scratched.
1 now avoid all these difficulties by
waiting until winter, says a corre-
spondent of the Farm and Home. The
new plants are SO hardened that the
wind will not destroy them; l have
plenty of time and can put on my
heavy coat and gloves and remove the
old brush without being scratched.
select a time when the temperature is
rising and the ground frozen. l use
a short iron hook with handle
about four feet long. Place the hook
back of an old stalk about a foot
above the ground, then give quick
jerk, and it breaks close to the frozen
soil

STOCK IN THE ORCHARD.
A Questionable Practice-Even Hogs
Are Apt to Do More Harm
Than Good.

A correspondent of the Farmers
Review says that one of the greatest
causes of damage to orchards is the
practice of farmers turning their
stock into the orchards. He says that
he has known farms where this did
more damage than all other causes
combined. We believe the conditions
are only occasional in which lit is safe
to turn stock into orchards. The
condition where this might be done
would be where the land is so sandy
that it will not pack under the feet of
the animals and the trees are headed
so high that the animals could not
browse the limbs But this condition
is met with but rarely and not often
in the middle west. Our prairie soil
has in it great deal of clay mixed
with humus and this when wet packs
readily. On our hillsides we often
find bowlder clay, and also in our roll
ing land that has been timbered with
hardwood we find a clay that is very
retentive of moisture and will pack
down as hard as a rock. There is no
surer way of killing a tree than by
packing the ground around it. We
have known of hogs collecting around
a single apple tree more than around
others and killing that apple tree
Hogs, however, are less Objectionable
in the orchards than other kinds of
stock, for the reason that they root up
the ground and this improves the soil
rather than Injuries it. A small num-
Der of hogs may be given the run of
a large orchard and not do any great
amount of damage unless they collect
too much around one or two trees,
which if in clay soil are about sure to
be killed. We do not believe that, as
a general proposition, it is safe to
permit stock to run in eur orchards
in the middle west

Starting Celery,

The farmer who wishes to grow a
little celery for his own use will not
have the large facilities for start
ing ii possessed by the commercial
growers He will find it necessary,
however, to start his celery in the
house if he expects to have any for
summer use, as celery when small is
a very slow grower, and even the
seed is slow in terminating. He can
SOW his seed in a box in the house
and put the box in a window, provided
he covers the box with a glass to pre-
vent the drying out of the top soil.
The plants may be transferred to
larger boxes in the course of month
or six weeks from the time the seed
is sown, if they grow thickly enough
to become crowded. They cannot
however, be transferred to- the open
ground until spring is well advanced

foul air is carried off by means of ven
tilating, shafts, d, leading from ceiling

Excessive chilling of these foul air
outlets not only reduces the convec-

causing it to drip.

Man Is Master of the Land.

There are no soil conditions that
cannot be overcome by man if those
conditions are such that they inter
fere with the growing of crops. What
seems impossible now will be possible
later, when the value of land has risen
to the point where great operations
will pay. The sandy, leachy soils can
be covered with layer Of clay and
the heavy lands can be sanded. The
swamp land can be drained and the
arid lands watered. The time will
come when man will put into use
every foot of land not closed up by
the eternal ice around the poles.
Even in the far north, glass gardens
will yet become numerous and beat
back the frost line.

replies the Rural New Yorker In
addition to this, it would probably
cost more, owing to the extra labor in
construction, and the joints are more
likely to prove leaky than those on a
straight roof. A straight roof with a
rise of about eight inches to the foot
is the most practical way to build a
greenhouse, though a lean-to house
(as the one slope structure is COM
monty called) would not require so
steep a roof unless the front wall were
very low. A very light and easily con-
structed greenhouse may be made

Alfalfa Pointers.

Alfalfa is deep rooted plant, hence
requires soils in which the subsoil is
of such nature that the roots can
readily penetrate it. 1t must be well
drained to depth of at least two feet
or the alfalfa will not prosper.
Any field likely to be under water
for more than SO hours at a time is
quite unsuitable for alfalfa. The same
is true of a field with hardpan subsoil
within two feet of the surface.
To get stand of alfalfa SOW sufH
cient good seed which you know will
germinate. Have the land well pre-
pared and in a good state of fertil
ity, and be sure that the land is well

deal of money upon them. 1t is alb.
surd for a farmer to purchase fer

fertilizer and put it upon land that
he does not know needs fertilizers. A
man should not expend a dollar in

needs. If his land is rich in a Ger.

Worm That Eats Canada Thistle.

Worm That Eats Canada Thistle.
1t is said that in some sections of
the country there has appeared a
worm which lives on the leaves of the
Canada thistle, and thus threatens
to exterminate this great weed pest,
says Farmers Guide. This new para
site is of the caterpillar type, about
one and a half inches long, and will
no doubt be made welcome, as far as
the farmer is concerned. Surely, if
even a worm enemy will help to de-
stroy this type of thistle, what blessing
to agriculture it would be. We may
be sure that the farmer who is at all
acquainted with the Canada thistle
will do all in his power to encourage
the working of this new species of
worm.
