In Memory
OF Mrs. Nicholson


IF death my friend and me di-
vide,
Thou dost not, Lord, my sorrow
chide,
Or frOWn my tears to see;
Restrained from passionate ex
cess,
Thou bid st me mourn in calru
distress
For her that rests il Thee
II feel a strong immortal no, =,
Which bears uy mOurnful Spi,it
up
Beneath its mountain load;
Redeemed from death and grief
and pain,
Isoon shall find my friend again
Within the arms of God.
Pass Il few fleeting moments
more.
And death the blessing will re-
store
Which death has snatched way;
For nc thou wilt the summons
send.
AuI give me back my parted
friend.
In heavens eternal day

Apple orchards must be sprayed ev-
cry year against the apple-scab disease
and against the curculio and codling
moth. Bordeaux mixture or lime-sul-
phur may be used in controlling all
of the diseases that work on the
leaves and fruit. For the early sprays
it is probably safer to use the lime
sulphur mixture in order to avoid any
danger of russeting the young fruit.
Arsenate of lead should be used for
poisoning the curculio and the codling
moth and all other insects which bite
and eat the leaves of the fruit.
The first summer spray for control
ling scab is given at the time when
the clusters of flower buds have sepa-
rated, but before the flowers them
selves have opened out. This is known
as the cluster bud spray" The sec
ond very necessary application should
be given as the petals of the flowers
begin to fall. This is the spray that is
given for the control of the codling
moth. For this application and for
the scab or cluster bud spray use lime
sulphur at the rate of u gallons tc
so gallons of water, to which add three
pounds of lead arsenate. Bordeaux
mixture may be substituted for the
lime-sulphur, if the grower so desires.

Three years ago when X. p. Pontiac
Lass established her record it was be-
lieved by breeders that the record
would never be equaled, but as time
went on and 40-pound cows becam

there was much chance for progress.
Since the sensational performance of
this new butter queen, breeders are
equally as certain that at no distant
day the Holstein-Friesian breed will
produce a 50-pound COW.
The rules observed in the official
tests OF dairy cows are: A large,
roomy stall, light blanketing, thorough
grooming, COWS exercised each day.

The new holder of the worlds seven.
day record for butter production bears
the ponderous name of Ormsby Jane
Segis Aaggie, and her registry number
is 1509S6. BY producing in seven con-
secutive days 1914 pounds of milk
containing 1886 pounds of butterfat,
this wonderful purebred Holstein-
Eriesian cow surpasses the best pre-
vious record held by another Holstein,
X. p. Pontiac Lass, that set the seven
day mark in 1912, at 1858 pounds of
milk and 35.343 pounds of butterfat.
The new queen is owned by Pine
Grove farm, Elma Center, N. Y. She
was born November "a, 1910, and her
official test, just closed, was made un-
der the supervision of the New York
State Agricultural college, three super
vjsors being employed.
That the official figures may be read.
lily understood by the reader, it is well
to explain that 1914 pounds of milk
is equivalent to over 326 quarts of
milk. Therefore the seven-day yield
of this remarkable COW averages more
than 46 quarts each day, and further
more 1886 pounds of butterfat, when
churned, will make over "A pounds of
commercial butter. At 80 cents per
pound, the seven-day butter yield of
this very profitable COW would be
worth over $3.50.
While Ormsby Jane Segis Aaggie's
breeding is not remarkable in ultra,
fashionable lines, she traces to some
splendid individuals OF the great
"black-and-white' breed. AS an indi.
vidual she is nearly all white, having
but four small black spots, one on
the body, one on the tail and one on
either ear.
She weighs 1900 pounds, has a
straight back line and is well shaped
enough TO please the most exacting
critic as 10 fulfilling the requirements
of the ideal Holstein type. Naturally
she is a great feeder, consuming large
quantities with apparent relish. Her
ration consisted of bran, ground oats,

men of the State could afford to insure
their automobiles against fire, theft, and

tanning and organizing a safe automobile

This Company was organized August
30th, 1915, thus enabling his first members
to join at time of the year when the
best risks could be selected and after the
more numerous losses of the summel
months had passed. This Company OBJ
tanned about nineteen hundred member,
which enabled them to pass through the
winter and the experimental stage with
safety, and the large membership and sur
plus will now enable the Company to COM

sulphur are used to control the scab.
while the arsenate OF lead is used to
poison the codling moth and curculio.
A third and even fourth application
will be a great help to control out
breaks of scab sooty blotch, black rot,
cedar rust, apple blotch. etc. By all
means one should spray about the mid
die of July for the second brood of the
codling moth which appears about this
time or a little later
Bitter rot is very troublesome in
the western end of the state. Where
it is causing damage it may be neces-
sary to start spraying about the first
of July and continue until the middle
OF August Bordeaux mixture is more
effective in controlling this trouble
than lime-sulphur. The arsenate Of
lead may be added to the bordeaux
when spraying for the codling moth
and thereby save time.
Green aphis has caused considerable
loss during the past two seasons and
will very likely appear again. Exam
inc the trees from time to time, and
if the leaves begin TO roll, look on the
under side for the aphis. II they are
present, spray the trees with BLACK
Leaf 49," using three-quarteTs of pint
to 100 gallons of water. To this mix
ture add three pounds OF dissolved
soap in order to make the material
