(By W. A. FREEHOFF.)

I have seen a good many farmers
grow cabbages on a mc~G or less large
scale; but with the exception of most
of those who were really commercial
market-gardeners, they made failure
of the venture. This is true in spite
of the fact that in many respects the
cabbage plant will endure more neg
lect and insults than other market
garden plants. Ignorance of the i'm
portant points regarding the cabbage,
alone, is responsible for most of the
failures.
Many farms which now raise con-
siderable tobacco as a side line may
proftably be changed over to cab
bages, to give the soil a variety, if the
owner will make up his mind to give
the humber plant the same care and
attention he paid to his tobacco. This
holds especially true in the vicinity of
large market centers.
Habits of Plant.
At the very outset, it is necessary to
know something about the habits of
the cabbage before planting any con-
siderable acreage. 1t is essentially a
gross feeder, requiring not only a
great abundance of the ordinary soil
fertility elements, but also great
amounts of water always at hand.
One hundred tons of stable manure is
none too much for an acre of average
land. But this fertility must be even
" distributed over the land and the
water must not make the soil wet and
soggy; it must be well drained. Cab.
bage will Withstand great degrees OF
cold, as low as 20 degrees above zero
but it will not endure protracted ex
! posure to dry air and hot sun.
Any kind of moderately heavy soil
easily workable and rich in lime, may
prove available for cabbage. But il
is always well to bear in mind thai
local conditions will render any state
ment of this sort only general, as il
some sections one kind of soil may no
be as good as another kind in a differ
ent locality. Local conditions also in
fiuence the other factors to a greater
or lesser extent. Market gardener.

LOOK OUT FOR BLACK BEETLE

Be on the lookout for the black
beetle which does such deadly work
among the asters. Don't let a day
go by without an inspection of your
plants, for if he comes, and his pres
ence is not discovered at once, he will
accomplish his fell purpose before
you are aware.

tive creature. AS soon as one is dis

care to practice any of the intensive
culture methods.
Preparing Land.
Thus such rotation as oats, wheat,
clover, corn and cabbage may be very
convenient, this rotation being capable
of notifications to sui individual
needs and preferences. For the early
varieties of cabbage the land should be
plowed in fall or as early in spring as
possible; for the later varieties it is
time enough to plow in June. The
land should be stirred deeply, during
and after plowing, every care being
taken to reduce it to ats finest possible
tilth and to cover it with a splendid
dust mulch for the conservation of
moisture. Not infrequently the best
cultivation is done before ever a plant
is set.
The first big mistake made by the
farmer is in the selection of plants for
transplanting. Often I have seen
them grow little spindly affairs in old
jars located near the window by
stove, and expect that these dollhouse
plants would develop into 1usty cab
bages. That crop is foredoomed to
failure; it never has a chance. These
first seed beds must be located where
the light and air can get at them, and
perhaps even a light frost. Then the
plants will be hardy and thrifty, full
of vigor to grow into splendid heads.
Mistake in TranspIanting.
The second big mistake is made in
the transplanting itself; in fact, more
plants are ruined by this process than
by any other means. Doubling back
of the roots is what causes most of the
the transplanting woe, the machine
employed often proving incompetent
or the help careless. Cabbage growers
are practically unanimous on this
point: The roots must be interfered
with just as little as possible, and
must not be cut or pruned. Again,
the plants, after being removed from
the seed bed should not lie exposed to
sun very long before planting. A dark,
cloudy day is best for this operation.
A great many men believe that there
is no better time than after a heavy
rain, when the soil is well soaked,
but this has serious disadvantages. Il
is far better to plant Immediately be
fore heavy rain.

MILK SECRETION IS
PUZZLING PROBLEM
Good Reason for Believing That
1t Goes on All the While
Between Milking Periods.

By PROF. o. C. CUNNINGHAM, Ohio
State University
There is good reason for believing
while between milking periods, but
that it is more intense during the proc
IS of milking and that the larger part
it takes place then. One of the
most evident proofs of this is the fact
that the capacity Of the milk cistern
and other cavities of the udder are not
great enough to contain the amount OF
milk given when a COW is in full flow
of milk. Fleischmann states that in
the case of an udder giving total vol
ume of 6,700 cubic centimeters of
milk, he found the capacity of the I'D
der cavities was about 5000 cubic
centimeters or about six pints, while
1000 cubic centimeters or Il pints
of milk might be produced at one milk
ing. This shows the secretion of a
volume of milk greater than the total
volume of the udder itself and more
than twice as great as the volume OF
the udder cavities. The relation be-
tween the volume or capacity of the
cavities Of the udder will not bear the
same relation to the total volume OF
the udder in different cases, because
some udders have larger proportion
of f1eShy material, but in no case will
the capacity be as great as might be
supposed from the appearance of the
udder when fully distended with milk
Another conclusive proof that a
large part of and probably more than
one-half of the milk is secreted during
milking is found in the fact that
when a COW is slaughtered just before
time for milking, the udder does not
contain the amount of milk that could
be secured had she been milked as
usual. In one experiment of this kind
a COW with an average production OF

cupful of kerosene.
Shave the soap finely and pour hot
water over it. Set it on the stove
to become liquid. When melted bring
it to boil, and add the kerosene.
Stir well until an emulsion rekults.
To one part of this smulsion add ten
parts of water. Spray the plants all
over with the mixture. II this is aaed

five and one-half quarters of milk at
the morning milking was slaughtered
at the usual time for the morning
milking, and her udder was found to
contain only 2.7l quarts of milk. In
this case of a cow giving a moderate
amount of milk, it was proven that
little less than one-half of the milk
was present in the udder before milk
ing commenced. It is probable that
in heavy milking cows the proportion
of the milk secreted during the milk
ing period is still greater.
