Dairymen can expect little sympathy

line of legislation restricting the sale

and buy oleo for use on their own
tables. 1t is true that this practice is
by no means general. but we noted the
other day an instance where farmers
in northern Pennsylvania and south
ern New York did this very thing and
boasted how much money they were
saving by the proceeding. 1t naturally
fell out that other folks in the COM
munity who did not keep cows thought
they would be justified in practicinG
the same economy. 1t was not long
until the price of butter in the locality
fell from 80 to &c cents pound. Then
the farmers who had started the ball
to rolling realized that they had fired
a boomerang which was reacting upon
them with disastrous effects. 1t would
be well if daily associations and dairy
papers exploited the force of the above
facts along with their advocacy of bal
anced rations. Babcock testers, and the
use OF thoroughbred sires.

EXTERMlNATING Fl.EAS.

A lady reader of this department liv-
ing near Lado3a, Ind. noticing the ar
ticle which recently appeared on how
to get rid of feas. writes giving the
method which was successfully used
on a farm northeast of Athens, ILL.,. to
which her family moved in the fall of
1896. She states that the fall on their
arrival and the next summer they were
almost eaten alive by feas. and she
doesn't see how the stock survived
either. There were heas in the COW
shed. fleas in the barn and barnyard.
f1eas in woodshed. with plenty in the
house. The fall of 1897 and the early
winter was warm. so that they had
heas most all winter. The following
spring before the feas had thawed out
and begun to hop her husband and the
hired man dug out and hauled afield
all of the manure about the premises
every bit. clean to the ground. They
also raked all of the litter out of the
wood and carriage sheds and burned
that. They expected the fleas as usual.
but none turned up. nor have any ap-
peared on the place since. Attacked
| when they were, the frosty morning
| and spring rains seem to have finished
| them. OF course. as our correspondent
| suggests. this plan will do no good for
| the balance of this year. but the flea
pestered might keep 1t in mind to carry
out next spring.

The North Dakota experiment sta
ton has hit upon a very sensible plan
for instructing the rural population Of
the state concerning the plant diseases
which have done great damage to the
farm and garden crops of that COM
monwealth. Inasmuch as but a small
per cent Of the country boys and girls
carry their education beyond that OBJ
tainable in the district school. the sta
ton officials argued that here was the
place to give some practical instruction
in agriculture. They accordingly pre-
pared large boxes. each containing
plant specimens showing twenty diff
ferent diseases which affect crops in
the state. Accompanying the speci-
mems are statements giving in brief
the life history of the diseases and
how to fight them. The complete col
lection costs 50. The plan is certainly
commendable one and might we'll be
adopted in all sections where fruit
vegetable or gain crops are affected by
insect or fungous nests.

In the building of silo it is worth
while remembering that the round

the square-cheaper to build. easier to
stay with girders, while. owing to the
fact that there are no corners, the

lord is so shortsighted that he will not
share with his tenant the cost of a

To any readers whose orchards may

comfort to know that fire damage
usually shows up worst the first sea
son following it's occurrence. If the
cambium layer of the trunk is not

son to expect that the tree will heal

exceeds this it is questionable if in the
long run the tree would not better be
removed and new one set in its place
However, the degree Of recovery il
