Best Cows Are Cheapest.

The high priced COW is not so ex-
pensiye as she seems in view of what
she produces. The average COW pro-
duces milk or butter to the value Of
$3.50 aud she costs S51 year. reck-
oning that the manure she produces
offsets the care given her. This shows
that the cow does not do a great deal
toward raising the mortgage on the
farm Assuming that it costs 10 more
to keep a good COW than a poor one.
the figures will show that the good
COW is relatively cheaper The aver
age COW will produce 5000 pounds Of
milk a year. while choice COW will
produce as high as 10000. meaning a
profit of 1925 against the almost even
balance sheet OF the average COW
while Pieterje II, Holstein, has a
record Of 10000 pounds Of milk a
year. which would make profit Of

MAIDEN BLUSH APPLE.

fThe fruit shows effects of apple blotch.4
vaded area being dwarfed by the ac-
ton of the fungus, further growth Of
the apple results in cracking of the
fruit similar to that produced by the
apple scab fungus. The cracks range
from one-fourth to one inch in length
and frequently extend almost to the
center Of the apple.
In extreme cases crack may almost
encircle the apple, practically dividing
it in half, and one crack may intersect
another forming a cross Fruits only
slightly affected with the disease may
go through the season without devel.
oping cracks. These are more com
monty developed shortly before the
fruit natures, though a few may occur
earlier in the season, The skin being
thus broken. the fruit becomes an easy
prey TO other fungi and sooa goes
down in decay AS a rule. the affected
fruit drops prematureiy, and the un-
sprayed Ben Davis trees left as checks
in the demonstration blocks at Benton
vile, Ark. shed so per cent of their
crop some days before picking time.
Infection does not begin to take place
until the fruit is nearly half grown.
The blotch was first observed on the
check trees June 26, and only few
affected fruits could be found on that
date. On July 16 large percentage of
the Ben Davis apples was affected, and
by the middle Of August it was clearly
seen that the crop was practically lost

branches and within the shaded por-
'tions of the tree. but finally spread to
almost the entire crop.-W. NJ. Scott.

Great Thinu For Fruit Growers.

It would be a great thing for fruit
growing If the market would distin-
guish sharply between apples for diff
ferent purposes, Apples that are not
recomnendable for dessert may still
be very useful for many other pur.
poses. 1t is not SO much question
Of not growing apples Of different
grades of quality as of finding the
proper uses for these grades. | think
1t is mistake at the present time
to recommend that certain apples be
not grown merely because they are
not Of high eating quality Il. 81. Bal

chion so placed that the occupant can
be held well back. The inside dimen
sions of the stanchion in this rack are

to suit the circumstances. The stan
chion Is supported by 2 by inch pieces
attached to each side and resting upon

Moisture Content In Butter.
The most talked of topic among but
ter men is that of moisture content,
due largely to the fact that the inter-
nal revenue department has been very
active during the past year in getting
after those creameries that have ex-
ceeded the limit set by law. Some ex-
periments have recently been complet-
ed by the South Carolina experiment
station on moisture control, and among
the conclusions reached are the follow
ing:
Butter ehurned moderately soft and
then oyerchurned in the wash water
to particles the size Of hens eggs av-
eraged a trifie higher in water content
than normally churned butter.
The melting point Of butter fat ap-
pears to have no influence on the wa
ter content Of butter.
The water content of butter made
from very rich cream and medium rich
cream is the same.
Brine sailing increases the water con-
tent Of butter about / per cent over
dry sailing
The average Of fifteen trials shows
that butter worked two minutes con-
tains 81 per cent more water than but
ter worked four minutes.
Normal cream overchurned in half a
churnful Of wash water to particles
the size of hens eggs increased the wa
ter content in the butter only slightly.

Owing to the amount of seed which
it produces, millet makes a very rich
hay, especially for horses. This con-
dition may be obviated somewhat by
cutting the crop before the heads fill-
that is, when they are about half de
veloped. Secured at this stage bright
and dry, it makes an excellent rough
age for both horses and cattle.

A speaker at a recent dairymen's
meeting said: To make the dairy
profitable we should have cows that
produce not less than 6000 pounds of
milk per year An average Of 5000
pounds can easily be reached If all
pooR cows are disposed of and If we
will use a strictly dairy breed We
can no more make dairying profitable
with beef bred cows than we can best
a race horse on the track with draft
er. We should feed and care for the
COW in such a way as to produce
large amount OF milk. We cannot pro-
duee clean milk from dirty COWS. and
from dirty milk we can't mike a first
class article, be it butter or cheese.
It is unfair for creameries to pay for
all cream alike. This makes people in
different in regard to keeping the
cream in good condition. Creameries
should cooperate with the farmers 1t
is to the farmers interest to patronize
the home creamery. If the central
creamery could kill the home cream
cry it could arrange prices to suit tt
self. Creameries and cream gatherers
or buyers should exercise the utmost
cleanliness so to set good example.
Farmers should have a neat small
room or building for separating and
keeping the cream. Keep 1t away
from the kitchen, where the cooking
odors give 1t an undesirable flavor.

1t is well to do with commercial fer
tilizers as with some other enterprises
of a semiexperimental and speculative
character go into the business on a
somewhat limited scale before applT-
ing to all of the acres of the farm.
If the application Of fertilizers will
not pay on five acres, it is fair to as
sumo that it will not pay on fifty.

The Minnesota experiment station
has lately concluded some inyestiga-
tons along the line of growing differ
ent farm crops, including corn fodder.
timothy hay. rape, pasture grass, etc.,
and has found not only that larger
amounts of these crops were obtained
from a land of a high state of fertility,
but that such crops contained a smaller
per cent of ash and from 25 to 30 per
cent more protein than crops taken
from run down lands.

The wide tired wagon is not only
one of the most convenient vehicles for
use in ordinary farm work, but is one
Of the best aids to making good roads
in the whole category Communities
where the King road drag is in use
and where the broad tired wagon is
numerous are doing a splendid work
In the cause Of highway improvement
