Care of Cows.


During the summer and other sea-
sons when the weather is mild 1t is
the custom on many farms to allow
the cows to remain in the barn lot
over night. Also, often this lot lies
between the dwelling and the barn, in
which case the area becomes very OBJ
1ectionable. The manure which accu-
mulates in a lot where the cows spend
the night soon becomes a nuisance.
besides being wasted
1t is best either to stall the COWS
during mild weather or to turn them
out to pasture at night after the milk
ing is done. In the stalls the manure
will not be scattered over large areas
about the place. and will be in po-
sition to be saved. If the COWS are
turned into the pasture for the night,
the manure will be so far removed
from the home that 1t will not be a
nuisance, and 1t will be on the ground,
where none of it will be wasted and
where it will do the most good with
the least amount of work
II the cows are to be stalled during
the entire year, the stable must be
well ventilated, so the animals will
not suffer with heat at night. This
can be easily done by providing plenty
Of doors and windows. Keeping them
stalled at times when they could be-

The use of the most modern meth
DDS in farming is by no means re-
stricted to the huge ranches of this
country. In nearly every locality in
the state farmers are using traction
engines with steam or gasoline for
power to pillow and harrow their land.
We know one ranch of $50 acres-not
large for this state-on which the
blowing and narrowing is done with
a 20 horsepower gasoline engine. This
hauls four 14-inch gang plows and a
2-horse harrow-the equivalent of the
work Of twenty horses. The distance
traversed over tough soil is from two
to two and half miles an hour. One
harrow is placed off to the side so that
the result is a double narrowing of
the tract. It was considered too small
an area to warrant the initial expense
for the machine, but the owners of the
ranch are satisfied that it will save
its cost in a few years. The time is
coming when the tedium of farm work
will be laid upon machinery.

ferent kinds do not exhaust the soil in
the same manner; all plants do not
restore to the soil a like quantity or
quality of manure, and all plants are
not equally favorable to the growth
of weeds. Upon the above principles
is based a regular succession of crops.
Though the system Of rotation is
adapted to every soil, no particular
rotation can be assigned to any one
description of soil which will answer
at all times, and on the demand for
different kinds of produce. On clayey
soils, beans and clover, with rye grass
are generally aIternated with grain
crops, and on dry loans or sandy
ground turnips, beets, potatoes and
clover. On rich soils this system Of
alternate husbandry is most conducive
to the plentiful production Of food,
both for men and animals. One por-
ton of a farm would thus be always
under grain crorS while the other por-
ton was growing roots or cultivated
gras as; but, as the major part of ar
able lands can not be preserved in a
state Of fertility with even this kind of
management, it is requisite that the
portion of the farm which is under
cultivated grasses should be pastured
for two or three years, in order to give
IT time to recruit. The following is
good rotation of crops: First year,
clover; second, clover; third. corn;
fourth, oats; fifth. wheat. The clover
does we'll with oats, and after an early
moving can be very we'll prepared for

Orchard Pests.

Whether there is a good or poor
fruit crop it win pay to keep the fruit
trees as free from disease and injuri-
Gus insects as possible. The healthy
and uninjured tree is more liable to
bear and prove profitable than the
one full of disease and injury The
orchard will last longer If it is kept
clean and healthy.
Borers are among the most insidi-
Gus pests of the apple orchard in some
localities. On account of their habits
they cannot be reached by poisonous
sprays, and nostrums placed about the
roots, as sometimes recommended, are
utterly useless. The most efficient
means of preventing damage from
these pests is by annual inspection of
the trees and removal of the grubs
with a sharp pointed knife. Various
protective measures are also used.
One of the most effective is to paint
the lower part of the stem in late
winter or early spring with fairly
thick paint made from pure ready
mixed paints for this purpose. since
others may contain injurious sub
stances. Wood veneer strips and wire
gauze are sometimes used to prevent
the eggs from being laid on the trunks
of the trees. but white lead paint is
simple and cheaper.
Black rot is a fungous disease which
attacks the fruit. foliage, old bark and
branches of apple and pear trees, The
leaf spot form probably causes more
damage than the other forms. Some
times black rot cankers on the trunk,
