A TURERcULIN DEMONSTRATION.

With a view to posting the dairy
men Of his state on a very important
subjec, the state veterinarian Of the
Maryland Agricultural college lately
gave a public demonstration for the
detection of tuberculosis as applied to
cattle. The demonstration was given
a thorough advertising, so that those
who wished to attend could make
plans to do so. The temperature of
the cows was taken at a. m., and at
p. m. the injection Of tuberculin
was made, the temperature being TAX
en- at intervals thereafter for the next
twenty-four hours. The demonstra-
ton was given for the purpose of ac-
Quainting the dairymen of the state
with the methods of the test, against
which so strong a prejudice exists,
and the eyes of many who attended
were opened as a result. In larger
states the same type of demonstration
might with profit be given at several
conveniently located points over the
state This anti-tuberculosis doctrine
needs preaching extensively in every
section where dairying is carried on.

TIE ORCHARD SPRAYING.

There is no single feature connected
with the care Of the orchard on winch
more depends in the production of the
maximum amount and the best quality
of fruit than that of the spray1ngs
which are given at intervals through
the spring and early summer season
The first treatment, which should be
given lust before the blossom Duds
open. is for keeping in check the scan
fungus, and for this the bordeaux
mixture only is needed. The second
treatment should be given just as the
petals are falling, and it is this treat
ment which is especially effective or
should be in killing the little worms OF
the codIing moth, 80 per cent OF whose
eggs are laid in the calyx cup at the
blossom end OF the apple. This cup
closes in about ten days, which makes
it imperative that a very thorough
treatment should be given within this
limit. so that a small amount OF the
poison may be deposited in the cup OF
each apple. The bordeaux mixture
the lime copper sulphate mixture
NAV be used for this spraying it de-
sired. but the essential feature is the
poison, which should be added In the
shape of paris green, arsenite Of soda
or arsenate of lead. The paris green is
ready for use by simply mixing thor
oughly with water so as to make sure
that no Jumps Of dry powder go into
the tank. The arsenite of soda is made
.by mixing white arsenic with sal soda
at the rate Of one pound of the former
to four of the latter and boiling fifteen
minutes in a gallon Of water, keeping
the water up to this amount.
Two quarts of this solution may be
used as a substitute for pound OF
paris green by adding four pounds OF
fresh Stacked lime or by putting 1t in
the bordeaux mixture in which there
is an excess of lime. The arsenate Of
lead is made by mixing lead acetate
with sodium arsenate at the rate OF
twenty-five ounces Of the former to
eight ounces of the latter, each being
dissolved separately, and then diluting
in 100 gallons of water. If used with
the bordeaux it should be poured Into
the lime wash before this is mixed
with the copper sulphate. The bor-
deaux mixture referred to is made by
dissolving five pounds Of copper sui
phate in twenty-five gallons of water
and then mixing this with twenty-five
gallons of water in which five pounds
of freshly slaked lime have been dis
solved or stirred For a 200 gallon
tank this recipe would have to be
uuadrupled But the proportion of
ingredients is the main thing, what
ever the quantity. The spraying solu-
ton should be strained as it is poured
into the tank, thus preventing clog
ging of the spraying nozzle. The spray
should be applied to the trees under
the heaviest pressure possible, so that
it will be broken into very fine parti-
cles and driven into the calyX cup of
the apple The contents of the tank
should be kept stirred, so that the
poison will be kept thoroughly mixed.
A solution of bordeaux mixture Of the
strength described is suitable for all
fruits except peaches and Japanese
plums, in which case it should be used
not more than half strength. For po
tatoes it may be even stronger than
$3.50 proportion.

Last spring experiments were tried
in portions Of the national forest re-
serves in several western states in the
matter Of poisoning prairie dogs, and
they seem to have met with a large
measure of success. The bait used
was wheat coated with a preparation
Of strychnine, cyanide Of potassium.
anise oil and mo1asses. The poisoned
wheat was carried to the field Of oper-
alton and there distributed among the
men who do the job on horseback.
About a teaspoonful was dropped near
the entraneN to the holes, little ex-
periaDce enabling the rider to drop the
<. ,lcAt accurately with his horse on a
trot. The action Of the poison seems
to be almost instantaneous, most OF
the dogs in village being dead within
an hour after the poison was put out.
The early spring was found to be the
most successful season for the work,
sss there is no grass then on which the
dogs may feed, and they are very hun
CRY and eat the bait greedily. Any
wishing to try the dog medicine on
their own account may secure the
formula for its preparation by ad-
dressing the forest service, Washing

BOUNTY ON BADGERS.

The members of the legislature Of q
central western state have the past
month taken what they evidently
thought was patriotic action in plac-
ing bounty on ground hogs. But this
does not tally with the recent bulletin
issued by the department of agricul-
ture at Washington which places the
badger IN the list of friends of the
farmer and gardener in that he wages
a constant warfare on gophers and
ground squirrels. which do much more
damage to pastures and crops than he.
State legislators would do well to keep
in touch with the bulletins issued by
the federal government.
There are thousands too many farms
in all parts of the country, bit espe-
cially those longer settled, which will
this year be let and worked in the
same old slovenly and shortsighted
way in which they have been run for
the past twenty years or more-one
year at time, grain raised and mar
keted in the crude state, continua-
tion of a system of soil robbery that
means ultimate bankruptcy for the
soil and the poorhouse for the owner
Just as sure as that water runs down

should be righted.

Charcoal placed handy where the
poultry can get it will prove a great
regulator Of the digestive organs, and
this is especially true If the flock is
confined and cannot pick up just what
they want. Where there is room for
the purpose it is also a good idea to
shut the chickens from small area
and SOW it to rye or oats, so as to fur
nish a supply Of green food when it
isn't in good form to let the hens run
on your own or your neighbor's lawn.

A very good feed for the hogs may
be had at small cost by sowing rape
seed-about three pounds to the acre
on a piece of the oat land week or
ten days after the oats are sown. This
will keep the rape in check until after
the grain is cut, when it win come on
and make fine feed. 1t is well to
have besides this a smaller patch sown
as early as possible and conveniently
located, so that the pigs may be turned
into the patch as soon as the rape is
three inches high. If it is left too
long before they are turned in it gets
tough, and they will not keep it grazed
down as it ought to be.

Ideas for Charity Bazaar.

No matter what the season the great
organization known as Society works
for charity. In fact, not to be identi-
fed with something of humanitarian
import Immediately stamps a person
as being decidly out of it.
Charity" is a magnet that draws
buds" bellies" and matrons together
with but one interest Young women
in touring cars stop you on the street
asking for books and magazines for a
library, while all sorts of entertain
ments engross the evenings.
All this leads up to a novel enter
tainment being planned for "shut.ins"
of all ages. 1t is to be an afternoon
affair on the lawn, the huge porches
being utilized as workshops.
There are a number of committees
with competent chairmen. There is
one on amusement for children one
for elderly people" one on food deli
cacies." AS near as can Judge. it is
to be most fascinating affair.
Maids from Japan will serve tea,
quaint Holland lassies are to dispense
cocoa, both iced and hot; dainty
American beauties" CARRIED in white,
with hair adornment of Beauty" rose,
will receive the jellies, jams, etc, and
the children's committee, all in cos
tune from Mother Goose, will receive
for the poor "shut-in" boys and girls.
One group of young girls has pre-
pared quantities of surprise nuts,
made by inserting some tiny object
like new penny, bonbon, wee doll,
tiny thimble, roll of bright baby rib
bon, or a raisin between English wal
nut shells; the meats extracted were
turned over to the homemade candy"
committee. The nurses will find these
nuts invaluable as rewards of merit.
For elderly "shut-ins," there are to
be boxes of comfort" powders, sug-
gestive notices, pencils, pads of pa
pers, sewing outfits, good short
stories, etc.
Scrap book fans are capital idea,
too, made by FASTING bright sayings,
jokes, little poems, anecdotes, etc, on
both sides of fan. 1t is light to hold,
and serves a double purpose, giving
comfort by its breeze and amusement
by reading the specially collected say
ings.
There is also a committee to collect
jars, bowls and vases, as nurses say
the problem of finding receptacles for
flowers is often a perplexing one An
up-to-date committee is the one col
lecting puzzles, and why wouldn't the
crippled "shut-ins" love these capti-
waiting pastimes just as much as the
sturdy youngsters l saw yesterday

zles together
