Snake Crop Is Large.

The biggest snake killed in this Sec
ton this year was dispatched by har-
vest hands with pitchforks in the hay
field of Thomas Beaver son of Gen.
James A. Beaver. It was a black.
snake. Tt measured eleven feet and
was as thick as mans forearm It
is thought to have been the same big
snake which has been seen in that
section every year.
Snakes are more plentiful than they
have been in years. They cause camp
ers much annoyance. Jacob Shirk,
while in the Allegheny mountains yes
terday hunting his cattle. came upon
snakes and one copperhead. More
than twice as many got away. One
of the rattlesnakes had fourteen rat
a den Of snakes. He killed six rattle
ties and was nearly five feet long.

COWS will be found in vertical line
with the hip bone. The udder should
be full, and come up we'll behind under
the tail, the whole vessel showing
great capacity, each quarter being
sound and the teats easy to draw.
The teats should be equidistant apart,
squarely set on, and of useful size for
milking" They also insist, as far as
general appearance goes, on the wedge
shape, capacious abdomen and a
clean and thin flank. OF the indica.

rying away impure blood from the
udder back to the heart and lungs for
publication; as milk is derived direct
~ from the blood. it follows that the
greater the supply of blood passing
through the udder the greater the
possibilities of the production of a
large quantity OF milk. The 'escut-
cheon' or milk mirror should be wide
at the thighs, and If of the 'flandrin'
order, run in a broad band up to the
vulva. The back of the udder just

THE SELECTION OF BEST
TYPES OF DAIRY CATTLE
Some English
Point of View.

Two very eminent authorities, in
the persons of T. H. Robinson and
G. w. Walker-Tisdale, contribute to
the Journal of the board of agricul.
ture of England very practical paper
on this subject. What they point out
may be regarded by some as truisms,
but they are truisms that are too
often neglected. In the first place,
then. it is necessary for the farmer to
decide whether his dairy is to be kept
for milk selling or for making but
ter. If the former of these be his OBJ
ject. it is essential that he should
choose GOVT which will at once give
a quality of milk exceeding the limit
prescribed by law, and yet not so ex-
cessively rich as to cause a cores
ponding reduction in quantity. On the
other hand, butter may be the object,
Or cheese. The two authors unhesitat-
lngly recommend Shorthorns for milk
ing. Jerseys and Guernseys for butter
and Ayreshires for cheese. They
somewhat laXly say that COWS that
will yield the quantity of milk speci.
fed may he bred or bought. AS they
estimate that the average quantity Of
milk yielded per COW per annum
throughout the country is little more
than 400 gallons. it is evident that the
practice thus recommended is not
very successful. The dairy farmer
might be more usefully recommended
to build up his herd by breeding only
from those which have the special
qualities that suit his purpose; but
the authors keep one eye on the butch.
er. and recommend dual-purpose COWS,
which may be MIXED for a time and

ihen afterward fattened and sold for
beef. The short list that we have
given is enlarged to suit the various
localities as follows: Shorthorns,
South Dcvons. Jerseys. Guernseys.
suitable for good land; Welsh. Ayr
shires, Shorthorns. Kerries.. Dexters.
Lincoln Reds, Redpolls, suitable for
exposed country; Shorthorns. Welsh.
Ayrshires. Kerries and Dexters. Dutch,
specially adapted for milk-selling; Jer-
seys. Guernseys. and South Devons,
most suitable for butter-makfng. In
purchasing dairy cattle the points to
be considered are: Cd Temperament
of tile animal: (2) shape of the udder;
ca general appearance denoting milk
ing qualities; go indications regard
ing quantity of milk yielded: f5p
points indicating constitution adj quail.
ty of milk yielded In examining
dairy COWS, the points which past ex.
perience has taught are Indicative Of
milking strain must be taken into
consideration. BY temperament it is
meant that the COW should be quiet
when handled. possess a clean coat,
a long neck. and be gentle and phleg-
matte in temperament In regard to
the shape of the udder they say: The
udder, or bag, should extend we'll for

when the cows head is turned slight
ly towards you. The skin should be
loose and rather thin. and of a slight.
ly oily nature, and the hair soft and
velvety. Then comes little essay on
milking of a very useful and practical
kind, in which the virtues of gentle
ness and cleanliness are we'll incul-
Gated. the whole matter being sum
married. in this paragraph. The es-
sentials of good milking are that it
should be performed Cd Quietly: that
is to say, the milk should be with
drawn in manner that will cause no
discomfort to- the COW. (2) Quickly:
if performed quickly more milk is OBJ
tained.. for rapid milking appears to
be beneficial in increasing the flow.
The comparison of the results obtain
ed by good and inferior mixers makes
this point very clear. A good mixer
is able to milk form seven to ten COWS
in an hour. the common indication of
good milking being the production of
plenty of froth Or head" upon the
milk in the pail. (S) Thoroughly: the
last milk, being the richest. must al
ways be withdrawn. Finally the au-
thors impress on their readers the
very great necessity for recording and
testing the yield of milk.

GOOSEBERRY AND
CURRANT PLANTS
By Prof. j. F. Volta, Gustavus
Adolphus College.

Only few farmers and others who
grow gOoseberries and currants to
any extent give much thought to how
10 get new plants in the spring. New
plants from the old stock may be OBJ.
tanned in the spring with but little eft.
fort in the fall on the part OF the
owner.
This may be done by bending down
and partially covering firmly with
earth small portion of half a dozen
branches. each separately, leaving the
ends sticking out. Covering the small
portion of the branches just deep
enough SO that they will not work
ont.
The portion covered will in good
growing weather take root and the
next spring may be cut from the old
plant. dug mp and set out as new
plant. Many new plants may easily
be obtained by this method You can
layer the grape vines in the same
way.

NEEDLESS WASTE
OF CORN STALKS
By Prof. H. J. Waters.

1t is estimated that between so and
80 million tons of slower are produced
on the S0,0O0,0OO acre normally plant.
ed to corn in the United States each
year. The magnitude of this annual
crop of roughness will be more fully
appreciated when We consider that
the annual hay crop of the United
States is between 60 and 20 million
tons, and is estimated to have a mon
ey value on the farm of something
like s5O0,O00,0OO.
While the slower is carefully har-
vested and fed in the more densely
populated states of the east, it is
nevertheless true that in the great
corn belt of the middle west, where
more than half of the corn of the ma
ton is produced. there is a prodigious
and protiigate waste OF this valuable
material. In this section valuable
land is used for the production OF tim.
othy hay upon every farm to be used
for rOughness and acres of corn slower
are allowed to go almost entirely to
waste.
1t is safe to estimate that some
thing like seven million tons of
corn slower are produced in Missouri
in the average year. Certainly three
and half million tons or one.half of
all that is produced is allowed to go
to waste. A better idea of the mean.
ing of this waste may be formed when
it is realized that the average hay
crop of the state is very Fttle more

employed Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
One Of her hands and her left eye
were badly affected, and when she
would stop using Cuticura Soap and
Ointment the eczema came back, but
very slightly, but it did her a sight Of
good. Then we used the entire set Of
Cuticura Remedies and my wife is en-.
tirely recovered. She thanks Cuticura
very much and will recommend Il
highly in our locality and in every
nook and corner of our parish. I. NJ.

Keeping Chameleon. Alive.

Chameleons can be kept alive for
years by making frame to fit over .
plant in q fiowerpot and covering II
with mosquito netting. which must be
long enough to tie with string about
the pot. Keep the pot in the sunniest
window and water the plant every day
through the netting. You will be sur
prised to see how eagerly the little
creatures will drink the running water
after they get over their fear. Set q
wire fiytrap for flies, which you can
liberate under the netting. The cham.
e1eons will not be backward about
helping themselves.
