The London Mail has Il dispatch
from one Of its correspondents telling
of his visit to the French wounded in
the NuSgeS He writes
Three men who fought side by side
said: 1T is probably our own fault that
we are here. Our major fell ut the

We were downed.'

SllAGE AND DAIRY cows.
A Trying Season Is the Latter Part Of
Summer and Early Fall.

One of the most trying seasons of
the year for the dairy COW is the latter
part of summer and early fall At this
season the pastures are often short or
dried up, and in such cases it is com
mon mistake of dairymen to let their
cows drop Off In flow of milk through
lack Of feed. Later they find 1t i'm
possible to restore the milk flow. no
matter how the cows are fed. Good
dairy practice demands that the milk
flow be maintained at high level all
the time from parturition To drying OF
1t becomes necessary therefore to sup
ply some feed to take the place Of the
grass. The easiest way to do this Is
by means of silage. Slage Is cheaper
and decidedly more convenient to Use
than soilng crops.
The amounts to feed will depend
upon the condition of the pastures,
varying all the way from ten pounds
to full winter feed of forty pounds.
1t should he remembered in this con
nection that silage contains n low per
ccntlgr of protein. so that the greater
the amount of silage fed the greater

ORCHARD AND GARDEN HINTS,

The bruisc of an apple may not at
Oh e develop into rot, but will make
Il brown spot which disiigures and
les sens the value of the fruit.
Many farmers who have been grow

the apple and most other fruit trees
form fruit buds in the late summer
months.
Apples keep best when allowed to
hang on the trees until they reach ma
turity. but that does not mean soft and
ripe. Il is common fallacy that
green. immature fruit will keep the

ABOUT MILK AND cows.

Warm milk should never be poured
into cold milk, nor should the nights

In order to produce desirable flavor
1t Is very essential that the milk and
