SALTED HAY.
1t Is Both Wholesome and paIatable to
the Animals.

1t Is Both Wholesome and PaIatabe TO
the Animals.
Why It is advisable to salt hay and
how much salt to use are. according to
a German authority. as follows:
Usually snlt is only sprinkled en-
hay when It has been wet with rain
or Is of n poor quality. Nevertheless 1t
may also be recommended for good
hay. even clover and meadow hay.
The salt will mainly help TO keep the
leaves of clover and sainfoin hay from
falling OF through its preventing 1t
from becoming too dry.
Furthermore, the sailing will make
1t more wholesome and paatable to
the animals For these reasons many
farmers also salt their best hay, espe-
cially because the keeping quality of
the hay is increased. The hay sailed
with l per cent salt Is eaten by cattle
and horses with pleasure. which Is ex
planned by the fact that animals which
are fed ration rich in potash have 7
natural craving for salt in order to
keep their blood provided with the
needed chloron and soda which other
wise are lost by the assimilation of
potash
"And as all grass and hay are rela
lively rich In potash. 1t seems natural
to add the salt When the salt is pro
vided in shape OF saltstone, they are
given a chance to indulge to excess in
II, therefore 1t is better to give It to
them by mixing II with the hay ac-
cording to their requirements, which
furthermore is n cheaper way.
"If per cent salt is used, the cattle
will get 30 grains salt for every ten
pounds of hay eaten. and that is the
quantity required by cattle Of average
size. This may be increased by half
when the feed Is hard to digest"

Last year good many silo buyers
put off ordering silos until late in the
season. with the result that they got
none. This time they will know better
but those who didn't have such an ex-
perience should he warned lest they
make the same mistake, says National
Stockman and Farmer. Plan for the
silo when you plan for the crop that is
TO go into it and know that II can be
had In ample time. OF course nobody
wants "A silo lying around for months
before 1t can be put in position. but it
is well to know that IT will be there

THINNING FRUIT.
How Peaches, piurs, Apples and Pears
Should Be Treated.

Should Be 7 reated.
The following points Of the subject
of thinning fruit are given by the
Maryland experiment station;
Peaches and plnms should not be
thinned before the July drop is over
and also the danger of depreciation by
the curculio is past In the case of
peaches. they should never be thinned
to less than five inches apart. Six or
eight inches is recommended when the
finest quality of fruit is desired Plums
should be thinned 10 about two or three
inches apart. Apples should be thinned
to about the same distance apart as
peaches. Pears should be thinned
about four or five inches apart. APP
pies and pears should be thinned when
the fruit is about the size of small
crab apple.
The thinning Is best done by the aid
of a stout stepladder having broad
steps and platform. The trees may be
thinned on the north side In the fore
noon and on the south side in the after
noon. so as to permit the person doing
the thinning TO be In the shade. To
Insure thoroughness in the work, each
branch should be completed before the
person starts to thin the next one.
Some Imaginary Objections.
One of the greatest objections to thin
ming is the seeming cost of the opera
ton. This objection is more imaginary
than real If allowed to remain the
fruit would have to be picked In the
fall. when labor is higher and the rush
of work is greater Besides the cost
of removal of small fruit is much less
than removing them after they are
ripe. Another objection Is that the
total bulk will be less IL half or more
than half of the fruit is taken off while
young Experiments have proven the
contrary. All things being equal, the
bulk will be equal If not greater If the
fruit Is properly thinned. The question
of time is often a problem with some
growers, but usually at that time of
the year labor is abundant Little diff
ficulty should be experienced on this
score
The Work Easily Done.
BESIDES the NOfh can easily Anu ell
GENTLY be done by women and chill
dren. In fact they are better adapted
to this Mind of work than are grown
men. Another great obstacle to thin
ming is found in the fact that few PEG
pie are willing to take off the young
fruit 1t seems 10 them an nnneces-
sary waste. Sentimentality also plays
part with many people In preventing
them from doing what they ought to
do. The sentiment however. should
be all on the other side. for is 1t not
better that few fruits should come
to perfection rather than all should
suffer from the lack Of sufficient nour
ishment?
1t should he understood that thin
ming will net pay except the other
practices, which go with proper fruit
culture. have been attended to. 1t will
not pay to thin an orchard which has
not been properly pruned, sprayed,
fortified and cultivated.

Care of Milk and Cream.

Milk and cream take up odors and
taints from unclean vessels in which
they may be placed or from any sub
stance emitting an odor, says Fasn
Press. They are easily spoiled and
made unwholesome for food if any dirt
or filth gets into them or il they are
covered up tight so that the fresh air
does not get to them to remove the
odors and gases which may be forming
In them.
