DAIRYlNe DURING FLY TIME
Two Most Needod Things Are sprayer
and RepelIent--cool Blanket
10 Also Beneficial.
CBy NJ. A. covERDELL)


A good sprayer and reliable fly re-
pelient will pay for themselves about
twenty times during the fly season, to
say nothing OF the comfort afforded
the animals and the satisfaction you
will derive from milking a quiet COW.
II you don't feel like investing in a
spraying outfit, have your wife make
you long, cool blanket out Of cheese
cloth or some other light material and
spread it over the COW while milking
This. however. is beneficial at milk
ing time only. The one thing that will
prevent the flies from sucking the life
blood and consequently the milk from
the best of your herd. is to spray, and
spray thoroughly while you are at t..
See that the COWS have some sort
Of good shade. They simply cannot
stand out in the scorching heat all day
and do as well as they would II pro
tected from the midday sun.
If natural shade is not available, IL
will take you but an hour or so to set
some tall posts and make a satisfac-
tory shade out OF SMALL brush, old
straw or boards. The COWS must have
shade.
Too many farmers let their COWS
rustic water from foul sloughs OF from
a tank filled with water warm enough
to wash dishes in.
This is not merely question Of
comfort and satisfaction TO the COWS.
Neither is it necessary simply to add
to your dairy products
Sanitation demands that the princi-
pal element entering into the compo-
sition Of milk be strictly pure-free
from every vestige of disease OF filth.

lE4HNOTES&aso

Montmorency is called the king Of
cherries.
Cultivation is one Of the four great
essentials in orchard management.
The effectiveness OF sprays and
emulsions is gained only by regular
application.
Packages should be Of full measure.
To fall short in measure is to provoke
a customer.
Fruit not perfect enough for other
uses may be made into cider and then
into vinegar.
The taste for good fruit may be so
cultivated that 1t will be had, even at
a larger price.
Midsummer pruning heals quickly
and is being practioed extensively by
good orchardists.
First-clsss fruit IN hrst.olass shape
will probably create an inquiry for
more Of the same kind.
Peach trees make good stock for
plum grating, as they usually have
large vigorous roots.
II you have a poor seeding pear or
apple tree It may be entirely made
over by top grating.
A large orchard poorly planted and
poorly tended will not produce as good
results as fewer trees well cultivated.
Hundreds Of trees set every year die
because of the neglect Of the owners.
It is not always the fault of the nur-
serymen.
II you did not have Strawberries
enough, fall set bede. set early and
well cultivated and mulched, come in
nicely next spring.
In growing all kinds Of berries there
is much more danger OF getting too
much bearing wood and too many
plants than too few.

The board of trade office has in the course of it's long and useful ex- istence received many strange com municatiOns The latest is the inquiry of a firm of San Francisco ship out filters concerning the production of yucca in Arizona.
 The letter does not state for what purpose the yucca is to be used, if any at all. but it is inferred that as the plant commonly called useless and a nuisance contains flores of eX- traordinary toughness and flexibility. the plan is to experiment with it's rope making possibilities.
 Yucca, of which there are two rad iCally different species in this coun- try, grows very abundantly on the desert.

 Jesus Maria Peral,a started Thurs day afternoon to visit a grandson whc had just returned from Los Angeles where he was injured in accident. The young man is at the home of Frank Serrano, another grandson who lives at 921 North Eighth street.
 Peralta is an old man, S4 years of age feeble and unable to speak the language O. the country. He was given car fare by a daughter with whom he is living and placed upon a car with directions for reaching Serano s house.
 It is probable that instead of board ing a Brill car the old man became a passenger on a GraIfd avenue trolley. In any event he did not reach Ser rano's house and Thursday evening q search was instituted' which led the party towards AIhambra.
