AYRSHIRE IS GOOD HUSTLER
Animal Is Quite Useful In Sections
Where There Is Much Rough
Land in Pasture.

lprenared by the United States Depart

The Ayrshire breed originated in the
county of Ayr, in southwestern Scot
land. In that region, which borders
IN the Irish Sea, the surface is rolling
and has much rough woodland. Pas
+nrps therefore, are somewhat sparse
and it is necessary for animals to
craze large areas in order to obtain
sufficient feed.
# is only within the last hundred
wears that Ayrshires have had type
we'll enough established to be entitled
70 the designation of breed.
This breed is not well known in
many sections of the United States
New England, New York and Penn
syIyania probably contain the largest
number of its representatives. There
is a small distribution in the Middle
Atlantic States, the Pacific Northwest
and other scattered sections.
The color of this breed varies from
the medium red to very dark mahog-

INCREASED MILK PRODUCTION
Supplies Food Material More Econon1.
icaIIy Than Meat or EGGS
Efficient Dairy Cow.

prepared by the United States Depart

Two facts stand out prominently as
reasons for the increased production
and use of milk The first is that
milk as purchased on the market
usually supplies food material togeth-
er with the growth producing elements
more economically than either meat or
eggs. The second reason is that the
dairy COW is the most economical pro-
ducer of animal food. One great law
Of food conservation is to turn inedible
feeds into edible foods in the cheap
est possible manner. The dairy Cow
will utilize coarse materials, inedible
By humans, such as grass, cornstalks'

Other farm animals also are convert
ers of coarse roughage into edible
foods, but are not so efficient as the

and the needs Of the fruitgrower in the

OF insects and fungi have been the pre-
dominating features In the develop
ment and excellence of our present
lists of insecticides and our variety of

Although spraying is one of the more
expensive of the several orchard op-
erations, the value Of the crop is SO
greatly increased thereby that it is a
comparatively small investment, the
expense amounting to only a fraction
of the returns directly due to the prac-
tice. Orchard spraying is, in fact, an
exceedingly cheap form of insurance.

PREPARE GEESE FOR MARKET
Young Fowls Can Be Fed Advantage
ousIy While on Grass or Con-
fined in Small Yards.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Before marketing the young geese
the average farmer can feed advan-
tageously a fattening ration either
while the geese are on grass range or
confined to small yards, but it is doubt
full whether it would pay him to con-
fine them to individual or small pens
and make speciality of fattening I'M
less he has special market or retail
trade for well-fattened stock.
Geese are usually killed and picked
in the same manner as other kinds of
poultry. Some markets prefer dry
picked geese, while in other markets
no difference is made i'm the price of
scalded or dry-picked geese When
feathers are to be saved, fowls should
not be sealded but should be picked
dry before or after steaning.

may be raised in small numbers sue
cessfully and at profit on farms
where there is low, rough pasture land
with natural supply of water. Geese
are generally quite free from disease
and insect pests, but occasionally are
affected by ailments common to pOuA-
try. Grass makes up the bulk of their
food, and for this reason pasturage IR
essential. A body" of water, while not
absolutely essential, is valuable where
geese are raised, and some breeders
consider it important during the breed
ing season. Geese are good fOragers,
and for this reason many farmers i'm
the South keep them to kill the weeds
in the cotton fields.
Geese need little protection in the
way of a house, except in winter and
during stormy weather. Some kind OF
q shelter should be provided for tho
young goslings, and the same precau-
tons tMKen in raising chickens as to
keep the coops and houses clean and
provided with plenty of straw scat
tered about the floor, should be taken
Geese like other kinds of poultry,
should be selected for size, prolificacy
and vitality. They should be mated
several months prior to the breeding
season to obtain the best results. Good
matings are not changed from year to
year unless the results are unsatisfac-
tory. gander may be mated with
from one to four geese, but pair or
trio matings usually give the best re-
suits. When mated, geese are allowed
to run in flocks. From four to twenty
five geese may be kept on an acre OF
land, and under most conditions ten

have long horns which turn outward,
then forward, then upward. Quick,
brisk actions are characteristic of the
animals which seem always to have an
abundant store of energy, and to be
exceptionally alert. Ayrshires have
highly nervous disposition, which is
useful both for production and self
support. Probably none of the other
dairy breeds can compare with the
Ayrshires in ability to obtain liveli-
hood on scant pastures. Their ability
as "rustlers" has made them very use
full in sections where there is much
rough land in pasture. Cows of this
breed average 1000 pounds in weight,
and bulls average about 1000.
Another point of which breeders
of the Ayrshire are very proud is the
uniform, square, level udder with long
body attachment which is common
among the COWS.
Milk from Ayrshire cows contains
comparatively little color and has the
fat in uniformly small globules which
average smaller in size than for any
other breed. The milk stands shipping
well without churning, and in other
respects it is we'll adapted to the mar
ket milk trade.
For Ayrshires the average of the
1888 COWS that have completed year
ly records for advanced registry is
1855 pounds of milk testing 1896 per
cent of butterfat, amounting to 377.51
pounds of fat. The ten highest milk
producers of this breed range from
25,329 to 18,745 pounds of MAX and
the average of these ten highest pro-
ducers is p, 1888 pounds of milk. The
ten highest butterfat producers among
Ayrshires range from 955.56 to 744.1>
pounds, with an average, for these
ten, of 1854 pounds Of butterfat.

successful. While a considerable de-
gree of skill in spiaying has now been
reached by a~large proportion of fruit
growers, there is still room for a good
deal of Improvement. Of all orchard
work, spraying is most likely to, be
sighted or even neglected, and there
is need that fruit growers have q more
intimate knowledge Of spraying mate

ly the why's and wherefors Of spray

has come to have a general meaning,
and it is apparent that some fruit
growers do not yet understand that the
kind Of spray and the. manner Of appli-
cation depend upon the character of in
sect or insects to be controlled. The
up-tO-date orchardist will know just
what each spray application is intend

ers Of the life and habits Of the insect
pests of their crops and of the nature
of insecticides will add much to the
efficiency Of their work in fighting
them.
There are several important insect
pests, however, from which spraying
does not give protection, and the con-
troll of these must not be overlooked
by the orchardist. OF these the most
serious are the several species of
borers, which are best destroyed by
systematic "worming," once or twice
each year. The great desirability OF
keeping insects reduced by up-to-date
orchard practice, as fertilization,
thorough cultivation, and attention to
pruning and other operations cannot
be emphasized too strongly, and Is
well appreciated by our most progress
sive and successful growers.
A knowledge of the character Of the
mouth parts of insects is Of Importance
to the fruit grower, for 1t determines
the general character Of sprays to be
used. Broadly speaking, all insects Sc
cure their food in one of two ways:
~ By actually biting out and swal-
lowing portions of the food material or
(2) by sucking out the juices from the
interior portions of the host. While
there are exceptions to this general
statement these are unimportant In
the present connection.
Biting and sucking types of mouth
narts are on two quite distinct plans.
Tn the former there are two horny,
opposable jaws, working Sideways and
certain accessory APPENDICES, with
which particles of the leaf, bud, flu1t
mr. other food substances are cut out
ond nassed on as more or less solid
narticles to the food canal for diges-
tion. This type is found in several OF
ders of insects, as in caterpillars, or
the larvae of moths and butterf1ef'
admit beetles and their grubs, grass
honners. crickets, sawfiies. bees, etc.
All biting insects are subject to de-
v+r,,ction with arsenicals or other stom-
ooh -,oisons. Some chewing insects as
horors and certain root-infesting In
Soo+s do not feed in situations where
noisons may be applied, and for these
different treatment is necessary.
