Interests of his garden, he at last
comes to learn that it has no greater
friend and server than the bird family,
and when one comes to learn the vast
amount Of insect life that birds destroy

wonder is that the government Of Our
country does not eSpOuse their cause,
and fix punishment for their s1augh

RAPE FOR DAIRY COWS.
By John M. Scott.

Florida Agricultural Experiment Station
The dairyman who has had experience
in feeding dairy COWS knows that there
is nothing quite so good as fresh pasture
grass to produce heavy flow of milk,
and at the same time to make the best
quality of butter. But grass is not
available all the year. Hence he must
provide a suitable substitute, or the
profits from his herd will be reduced.
In providing suitable substitute for
grass, number of things have to be
considered. First, will the feed substi-
tuted produce the desired effect? That
is, if you are feeding dairy COWS, will
the substitute for grass produce a heavy
flow of milk? Second, what will be
the effect on the animal? Third, will
the returns be greater than the cost,
or not
How to Feed Rape.-Rape may be
pastured or used as soiling crop. If
pastured, some care must be exercised
at first, until the COWS become accustom-
ed to it. When cattle are first allowed
to pasture on rape, there is danger of
bloating; but this can be easily avoided
by first feeding the COWS a little hay
or grain just before turning them on
the rape. In other words, do not turn
the COWS on the rape to pasture when
they are hungry. When first turned
on pasture, let them Craze for only a
few minutes the first day-say ten or
fifteen minutes; the second day allow
them a few minutes longer, and so on
until the COWS become accustomed to
rape.
Another difficulty found in pasturing
disagreeable taint in the milk. This
may be overcome by using little care
and Judgment in feeding. If the COWS
are allowed to pasture on the rape, only
before and after milking, for about an
hour, and at no other time, very little,
if any, difficulty will be found
Amount Produced Per Acre.-Rape
is a crop we'll suited to Florida
conditions, and is excellent for feeding
dairy COWS, as it will produce many tons
of good nutritious feed per acre, at a
time of the year when such feeds are
scarce. The experience of this Station
in growing rape has shown yield of
27,2OO pounds per acre. This result is
only based, it is true, on one years
crop. Many of the northern states re-
port yields of from 80 to SO tons of
green forage per acre. No doubt there
is plenty of ground in Florida capable
of equally good returns.
The Dwarf Essex variety seems to be
suited to Florida conditions Sow the
seed any time in September or October,
in drills twenty-four or thirty inches
apart, applying liberal application of
fertilizer, and giving about two cultiva-
tions to keep down the grass and weeds
Seed may obtained from any good
seed house.
For further information regarding
preparation of the soil and planting, see
former issue of this paper.

CAMPHOR FARM LOCATED.
Land Being Cleared for Trees Near
Barlow.

The following, from the Courier-In-
formant, shows that the business of
growing camphor is beginning to take
hold Of the people.
There is no doubt that any one who
has suitable land, unoccupied, cannot
find a better or more profitable use
for it than to set it out to camphor
trees. The Courier-Informant says:
Some weeks ago the Courier-In-
formant announced that Mr. L. Wal
ter Weed, representing company
formed in Washington, d c., for the
purpose of cultivating camphor trees
on a large scale in this state, with
the ultimate design of producing gum
camphor in marketable quantities, was
prospecting in this vicinity with the
view of locating such farm near
Barlow
Mr.. Weed returned to Barlow last
week and is now actively engaged in
carrying on the work Of establishing
the camphor farm. He has secured
a section, $40 acres, of land, known
as the "Hancock place." near Lake
Garfield, thirty acres Of which is be-

condition for setting the trees, which
will be done without delay. This part
of the work is in charge Of J. B.
Py1ant, which is a guarantee that it
will be thoroughly and inte11igently
done, and that there will be no fail
ure on this score.
Owing to the fact that much of the
seed planted last winter failed to
germinate, Mr. Weed has only Sue
ceeded in securing about three thou-
sand plants, but he is securing the
country roundabout for more, and will
probably be able to add largely to
this number before the present sea-
sons planting is finished.
It is understood that the agricu1-
tura1 department at Washington is in
terested in this experiment of Mr..
Weed and will give it every encour-
agement in it's power. That it will
prove a great success no one who
has observed the 1uxuriant growth Of
the camphor tree in this section will
doubt for a moment. We hope some
day to see camphor farms as numer-
Gus and as profitable in this section
as orange groves are now.

What would our people think if the
law provided for fine of 500 for any
one guilty of selling spoiled egg? The
new Iowa pure food law is very strict,
and one of the provisions make it
800 fine to sell bad egg. The farmer
who brings in a lot of eggs that are over
ripe and sells them at fresh egg prices
cannot plead that the "children gathered
them up and may have accidentally put
in some that were not very fresh"
Any kind ofan old tried out egg will
not count any more in the state of
iowa. --Volusia County Res crd
