NEW YORK.s APPLE CROP.

F st r-
 The prospect for the apple crop this fall is excellent. Particularly in the western part of the state the crop $ an unusually good one. In some sec- tions bumper crop of baldwins will be harvested Greetings will be lighter crop than last year, but there will be fair crops of the spy, the Ben Davis and the pippin. The duality Of the fruit this year is better than the average. It is now of good size and quite free from fungus. IL is, in- teresting to note in the study of the crop reports in different sections that the larger crops are we'll cared fer. and where insect pests have been fought to- a finish. There are too many orchards in the state that are unproductive because the scale, scab, aphis and other insect pests are not combatted. It costs good money to fight the orchard pests, ut there. is no money in orcharding these days unless orchards are kept clean and free from destructive insects.
 Reports show that the western sec tion of the state is ahead in apple production this year and that the Hud- son valley will not have over half crop.
 Tn view of the prospects for rather heavy crop dealers are talking of starting a price of about s1.50 a bar rel, and they believe that that price ought not to be exceeded this fall if the crop turns out as heavy as indi- cated. Growers think that $2 a bar rel is about right for the start, with an upward tendency as the buying becomes more live1y-From the AL bany Knickerbocker Press.

PATIENCE AND PERSUASION.
How They Induced an Obstinate Cow
 to Travel.

:. New London, Aug. 16.-A COW owned by Philip Butler, a Waterford farmer caused excitement on Bank street Wednesday afternoon and by reason of it's antics caused a large crowd to as senfbIe. The animal having been purchased at Groton and was heinz led tc the Butler farm. TEe cow made the journey through the by ways of Groton peaceably, but upon reaching New London it had appar- entity become affected by the heat and because of its long walk. On Sta: e street the animal refused to go fur ther and laying down would not get upon it's feet despite various forms of persuasion by the farmhand in charge of tbossy.' Finally, buckets oG~wa- ter dumped on the COW caused her TO arise, but before she had travelled many feet another lay-down occurred The water cure was applied several times before the animal was again coaxed upon her feet and the journey was resumed to Waterford.

 StrRtfcrd. Conn.,, Aug. 15.1The work of the army aviation squadron and of the engineers corps is among the most interesting features of the menpevers being held in this section. Lieutcnants Foulois and Milling, Us s. A., have made a number of flights in the rew double control biplane. They carried map making apparatus, and while one operated the machine the other obtained records of the posi- tions and movements of the troops. The military authorities are highly pleased with the results as absolutely demonstrating the practicability of the aeropiane as a war scout. Why the engineers branch of the service ranks high was demonstrated in the construction of light pontoon bridge with which they spanned the Housa- tonic river. enabling the troops to push across with little delay after the theoretical destruction of Zoar bridge by the opposing force.

HOW TO START THE MOTOR.
Helpful Rules That Seem SenseIess
But Have Worked.

George Fitch in his latest humorous
volume, "My Demon Motor Boat"
gives plenty of suggestions for run.
ming motor boat. The same rules
apply to autos.
Suppose your motor boat or auto
has stopped nine miles from dinner,
and you have tested the electricity,
adjusted the carburetter, cleaned the
gasoline pipe, found the pump in
working order, cleaned the spark plug,
ruined a two dollar shirt and, in
short, have demonstrated to your
satisfaction that there Is nothing the
matter with the engine except the
fact that it will not run. This has
taken you two hours in the course of
which you have cranked the engine
one hundred and ninety-eight times.
Is it then time to give up and paddle
home with a seat bottom, thus disgrace
ing yourself in the eyes of all enthu-
siasts? Hardly! You have just be-
gun:
1. Remove spark plug, empty car
buretter-and crank the engine.
2-Sandpaper the flywheel, take on
the committeeman crank the
engine.
3-Kick the pup, blow cigarette
smoke in the printing cocks-and
crank the engine.
4-Disconnect the propeller, reverse
the ensign, empty the gasoline tank
and crank the engine.
5-Repeat a verse from the Koran,
tie a wet towel about the cylinders,
take off the lubricators-an crank
the engine.
6-Take the motor entirely apart,
put it together with your fingers
crossed, drop a quarter in the tank
and crank the engine.
Crank the engine suddenly, with
out doing anything else. This often
surprises it into running.
6-Turn your coat inside out, oil the
rudder, throw the gasoline strainer
overheard, stuff a cushion in the fly
wheel-and crank the engine.
9-Repeat the names of the prop
bets in Arabaic, put a gumdrop in the
cylinder, write your candid opinion OF
all gasoline engines on the stern, roll
up your cuffs, connect the batteries
with your watch, take off your neck
tie, yell HE'LL" into the gasoline tank
and crank the engine.
There isn't the least sense in any
of these rules. Yet each one has start
ed an engine in it's time"

CLEAN MILK ESSENTIAL.

Every man, woman and child in the
United States uses milk or milk prod
uts in some form. Are you doing
your part to keep your milk clean
and theirs? One of the worst sources
of trouble is lack of cleanliness in
the care of milk utensils.
One of the chief things to remem-
Der is that milk utensils should never
be rinsed in hot water without being
first rinsed in cold water. If hot wa
ter is used, milk that may remain
in vessel is very likely to be so hard
ened that it can with difficulty be
washed off.
Rinse first in cold water, wash in
bot water, using a washing powder
If desired, then rinse in boiling water.
In the summer, set utensils in sunlight
to dry. The final rinsing in hot water
not only kills germs but so heats the
pals that they will dry Off quickly,
thus lessening the chance of rusting.
It is economy to buy only the best
grade of pals, cans and strainers. A
rusty pail should never be used or
one in which the seams have become
slightly opened.
A milk house aids very much in
the proper care of milk and milk
utensils. The size of the house should
be proportioned to the number of
cows MIXED. Some will find that a
house as small as by 10 feet will
be sufficiently large. Such a house
should have a concrete floor, cement
plaster walls, or at least walls that
can be readily washed, concrete,
steel, or wooden tank in which milk
cans can be set to cool, some provis-
ion for heating water a sink where
milk utensils can be washed, and
enough windows to admit plenty of
light. In summer, door and windows
should be screened.-Farm and Home.
