sod, and all waste vegetable matter
should be plowed under, which in
time rots and makes excellent fer
tilizer.
A question was brought to the at
tention of the speaker the long
frozen state of the soil in Wayne
county. Under these conditions Mr..
Groupe advised that in cases where
the ground was frozen and also had
a layer of ice on its surface, it would
be best to store the manure until the
ice had melted. This is an eXcep-
tion of very rare occurrence.
Fred w. Card next gave a short
talk on the Growing of Fruits.
Propagation is one of the most i'm
portant things in connection with
the production of good fruit. This
is brought about in two ways, that
is, budding and grating. Mr.. Card
gave a very interesting exposition
of the different ways of pruning,
planting and nursing young peach,
apple and pear trees. He emphasiz-
ed the one essential which is the
need of planting the trees deep
enough so that there would be no
possibility of their raising out of the
ground.
A number of questions were asked
by the farmers and lively interest
was displayed by all.
Prof. Champion Makes Address.
j. S. Champion, instructor of ag-
riculture in the Honesdale High
school, rendered a short and interest
ing discourse on the action of water
in different textures and kinds of
soil.
Prof. Cook was next introduced
and chose the subject of Dairy Feed
ing and Production" The action of
the food eaten by the COW has a
large influence on the test and quail
ity of it's milk. 1t is thought by
some farmers that silage has bad
effect in causing the milk to either
smell or taste of silage. This is
without support, however, as it has
been proven that in almost every in
stance without exception, careless
ness was the cause. An illustration
of this follows: When this statement
was made at one of the Institutes a
farmer jumped up and stated that
Silage did cause milk to smell and
taste of silage, for his customers
and home folks were beginning to
complain about it. He was asked
if he fed his cows before or after
milking and replied that he always
fed them before. Did you leave any
silage lay around in that part of the
barn here you milked? No, sir
fed them before. Did you leave any
your hands before milking" asked
the speaker? well, 1 don't think
did," said the farmer, and he sal
barn where you milked?" "No, sir
what was the cause of his trouble
This precaution should be taken anG
also the milking should not be done
where the silage odor is prevalent
The only way that silage can effec
the milk is after it has left the COW
If this is taken care of you can de
pend upon it that your milk is al
right.

THE, FOOD THAT WE EAT
IN THE SPRING, TRA-LA
Has Great Deal to Do with the Case-Fol-
low Your inclination and Craze,
Saw Food Authorities.

THE fresh fruits that are in season now
are splendid food and should be eaten
freely, particularly at breakfast Fresh
pineapple for instance, makes an excel
lent breakfast dish"
Mrs Schafer also advocates the use OF
chicken in various forms to take the place
of the heavy meats. "A chicken salad
sandwich makes somewhat novel and
appetizing item for the spring luncheon
bill of fare" she said.
Eggs are growing cheaper every day,
and one is surer now of getting fresh
ones. They. too, may be used in place OF
meat. as their nutritiye value Is also high.
An attractive piece de resistance for
luncheon is a stuffed egg salad. There
are many other salads that may be used
as the principal luncheon dish at this
time OF the year.
The coarser grains should be used more
-samp and hominy for instance; and
rice should largely take the place of po-
tatoes. Old potatoes are pretty poor at
this time Of the year and new potatoes
are expensive.
The quantity of hot beverages should
be diminished as the season advances and
cooling drinks substituted. The jellied
SOUPS may also take the place Of the hot
variety"
