Economy Of the Dairy Cow.

There is no question as to the econo-
my of the dairy COW as a producer of
human food. None Of our domestic
animals can produce similar values
from the same quantity of digestible
food. The Holstein COW Maid Henry
produced at the Kansas experiment
station in one year 2,471 pounds Of
milk solids. A prime steer weighing
1850 pounds under test at the Mis-
souri, experiment station was found,
when chemically analysed, TO have pro-
duced in total solids 547 pounds. These
total solids included the entire carcass
of the steer, a very large per cent of
which cannot be used as food. Every
ounce of the material produced by the
cow was edible, and the total quantity
was nearly five times as great as that
contained in the whole body Of the
steer.

MARKET GARDENING

If the radish plants stand too thickly
thin them to stand at proper distances.
The small button radishes need not be
more than one and one-half inches
apart in the row, while the long rooted
varieties should be about three inches
apart. Thinning is often necessary to
obtain roots of large and uniform size.
Beets often come up too thickly and
should be thinned. This operation is
even more important than for radishes.
Parsnips, carrots. satisfy and early
turnips may also require attention in
this respect. Af
Cultural experiments at the Pennsyl-
vania State college, conducted on a
large scale, show that 1t is perfectly
feasible to grow potatoes between rows
of young apple trees and to do this in
line same ground year after year. The
potatoes are always followed by rye,
which is plowed down for manurial
purposes for each crop of potatoes.
The apple trees are seven years old,

Bio Claim. For New Explosive.

New York. June 21.-Rochamboite il
the name of a new explosive In which
United States, British and French mil
itary experts are much interested. Mil
itary boards have been carefully watch
ing experiments made by its inventor.
The new destructive agent looks like
a fine sand or powder, and when ex-
ploded in a shell it creates a heat of
more than $500 degrees and throws
molten metal just as the bullets In a
shrapnel shell are scattered.
f. W. Pugsley. who is a metallurgi-
cal engineer connected with the Nc
Kinley- Darragh Mining company and
Is stationed at Perth Amboy, \. j.,
has been studying rochambOite since
last October and has now perfected it
and is ready to put it to use.
Mr.. Pugsley is a Rochester man, and
the name rochamboite is a combina-
ton Of Rochester and Perth Amboy.
While observing the refining of metals
he watched the blast furnaces and the
matte, or impure metal, that escaped
and ran into the water, where 1t ex-
ploded with great force. Matte Is a
product containing sulphur and is OBJ
tanned in the smelling of sulphids Of
different metals. This set Mr.. Pugsley
thinking. and, he says, he has com
bined the salts of metals and nonmetal-
lie elements. At the instant of deto-
nation metallic parts Of salts of metal
are reduced to matte, or a combination
of fmDurp metals The lilo
part Of metallic salts combined with
the organic elements causes the explo-
sion and throws out the molten matte.
A bomb loaded with eight ounces Of
this explosive threw this molten matte
forty TO fifty feet high, and when It
fell into the sand the heat was so
great that the sand fused"

! Things the Farmer Likes to Know
TO GROW TOMATOES.
Characteristic Of the Coed Plant 10 q
Strong and Extensive Root

Strong ard Extensive Root
Many growers OF late tomatoes for
canning purposes underestimate the
Importance Of good plants for settins.
says a bulletin recently issued by the
New Jersey State College Of Agricul-
ture.
Under ideal weather and soil condf
tons very small and weak plants will
live" the bulletin continues. but the
experience of several years past in
some parts Of New Jersey has shown
that such conditions are not apt TO
prevail: hence. in dry seasons and a.
ways In northerly localities where re-
planting is likely TO give too late a
crop. the strength Of the first plants
set is an all important point. Some
planters prefer to run the risk of los
ing plants, with the intention Of re-
planting such as are lost. rather than
10 take a little extra care in produc-
ing sets OF the best kind. In the IN
usual season. such as that OF 1914.
such growers are almost certain to
sustain a loss.
The first characteristic Of the strong
plant is a strong and extensive root
system. since with such a roo system
there usually zoe a stock stem. which
all growers Ike to have. Crowded
plants cannot develop the right kind Of
roots, for the simple reason that they
have not room enough for expansion.
Some growers who aim to get an early
start by sowing seed in the greenhouse
or cold frame may often lose all they
expect to gain. because they feel COM
PEELED TO utilize all the space to the
utmost by crowding the seedlings. In
many such cases field sowing with
more space between the plants would
give as good or better results with
less labor.
"It is the opinion of the experiment
station authorities that transplanting
could be done much more easily and
cheaply than many growers seem to
think. Where transplanting is not
done, thinning is advised. Growers are
urged 10 try the undertaking method
on a few rows this year, as this meth
cd promises good results"

If they are quite good size. writes r.
A. Hayne in the National Stockman.
Catch a little fellow and look at the
needle pointed teeth on each side above
and below.
Have a are while looking, else he
will treat you as he does his mates and
often his mother when she suddenly
jumps up while the pigs are tussling
for their places at dinner. When the
sow does this a pig has cut her udder
with one of those tusks. Look at the
lips and noses, faces and eyes Of pigs
a few days old and see the sores and
scars from these same teeth. Cut them
of, save all this pain and have larger,
growthier pigs.
A pair of small, stir steel pincers is
the thing to do the job. Have a pine
stick six inches long, one inch wide
and half an inch in thickness, round
the edges and put this in the pigs
mouth like a bit. Sit on the ground
or a low stool, set the pig on his rump
between your knees with Feet toward
you, hold his nose and stick with one
hand, hold his body with your knees
and clip his upper teeth of clean and
smooth with gums. Don't pull them
out. Then turn him with back toward
you and cut out lower ones the same
way. Now he is disarmed, no more
sore and cut lips and eyes, and the
mother will lie still till all are fed.

Animal Food For Poultry.

Remember that until the bugs and
insects come the laying hen must be
fed something In the way Of animal
food. Fresh ground bones with some
meat on them is the best food of this
kind. Then come good beef scraps.
In lieu Of either Of these skimmilk or
buttermilk will take the place of meat.
All grain and no meat for the laying
hen spells the difference between fail
ure and success in the poultry bust

Pruning Grapes.

In pruning grapes remember that the
fruit grows on the new wood of the
present seasons growth, which springs
from wood grown the preceding sea-
son. Wood that bore last season will
not bear again. For this reason grapes
should be cut back very severely In or
der to stimulate plenty Of new healthy
wood growth. The fruit is borne near
the base and ordinarily one shoot
should not be allowed to produce over
four clusters.

THE COMING NUT.

Interest in the comm ercial
growing of nuts is increasing
rapidly. The pecan and the Eng
lish walnut hold the lead in pop
ularity in spite Of some failures
and misdirected efforts In ham
ding these crops. Agricultural
colleges are answering the de-
mand for Investigations in nut
culture. The Pennsylvania ex-
pertinent station has called for
information about English wal
nuts now growing in the state
that may be of value. In Cali
fornia, Oregon and some south
ern states nut Investigations have
been under way for several years
and are beginning to bring worth
while results.
There is opportunity to i'm
prove even the common black
walnut. Improvement of nuts is
slower than improvement of the
commercial orchard fruits. 1t is
a task for those who are well
established in farming and are
able to make tests covering a pc
Rod Of years. The Importance
and economy Of nut production
have frequently been urged in
these columns. Those who are
interested in permanent agricul-
ture have a great opportunity to
participate in the development
of an industry that now gives
promise of rapid growth.-Coun-
