Farm Notes.
—As butter partakes of the flavor of
the cream, the cream should not be al-
lowed to become too sour.
‘—Keep the milk-giving breed for the
dairy. It is throwing away feed to try
to make a dairy cow out of a beet cow.
—A horseman claims that feeding
an idle horse much corn in winter is
as bard on them as overworking them
in summer.
—The recent fat stock show at Bir-
mingham, England, adopted the rule
followed at Chicago of cutting out of
the list beeves of 3 years old.
—The horseman who said “there
are two quarts of oats in the curry
comb and four in the brush,” evidently
believed in grooming the Loree.
~—1In pruning large neglected trees to
bring them into vigor and fruitfulness,
they should not be headed back in
such manner as to divest them of all
béaring wood.
—Good butter is one of the things
that is always in demand. This is
not true of all articles. Therefore, the
question of making first-class butter is
of the highest importance.
If your customer wants pretty dry
butter, work it once, then let it lie ina
cool place for two or three hours, then
rework and pack, and you will have
no mottled or streaked butter.
Pools of water in the pasture do not
supply the cows with cool, fresh water.
If no stream runs through the pasture,
put upa wind mill and have water
supplied to troughs with pipes.
Grass will grow anywhere that a
good crop of weeds will thrive, and it
land is liable to beover run with
weeds, a crop of Hungarian grass wiil
crowd out the weeds and destroy them.
—OQintment for caked udder : Take
a cup of vasehne acd thoroughly stir
in equal parts of spirits of turpentine
and spirits of camphor, or saturated
camphor, as called by some; beat up
thoroughly and rub udder, or apply to
any wound.
—A garden 60 or 80 feet square, se-
curely fenced against rabbits and
chickens, will yield an abundance of
vegetables for the largest family, and
an orchard of one-half acre, judiciously
planted and cultivated, will give plenty
of fruit for the same.
‘Worn-out land requires at least two
or three years for restoration, and it
will cost something to bring it back to
fertility. When land has been crop:
ped tor years, until it is no longer ca-
pable of producing a crop, the plant
food cannot be replaced in a single
season. :
Iowa has passed a law compelling
her farmers to eradicate the Russian
thistle. Laws for the destruction of all
kinds of weeds would aid the farmers,
The farmer who allows weeds to grow
and mature seed is a menace to the
community, and entails expense on all
who adjoin him.
Habit has much to do with success
on the farm. Some farmers are Bour-
bons, who learn nothing, but adhere to
old methods, forgetting that the world
has progressed, and agriculture revolu-
tionized, while they have followed the
same course marked for them by their
fathers in the decades gone by.
Analysis of soils proves pothing, as
no two square feet of ground will give
the same results. A shovel full of
manure, placed on a spot five years ago
may cause that portion of the field to
give different results than a portion a
few teet away. The best way to test
land is by observation of the effects of
manures or fertilizers on different
crops.
Many an innocent farmer has seeded
down a good crop of weeds when sow-
ing clover seed. Buying cheap seed is
not economical. It requires labor to
keep the clover field clear of weeds and
to clean the seed. No one can put
clean clover seed on the market and
sell it cheap, as the cost of the labor
must be secured. Farmers should
examine seed carefully before using.
Brushing the hide of a cow should
be the rule, but the filth that gets on
her side is due to not keeping the stalls
clean with fresh bedding and plenty of
it. When the bedding is put out in
the sun to dry, io order that it way be
used the next night, it is economy that
does not add to the health of the ani-
mals or the comfort of the stalls.
- «—There are two lines of work possi-
ble for the farmer to follow which
bring cash returns every once or twice
a week. Theseare dairying and egg
production. In this respect they lay
over every other feature of farm life.
Ready money is something to be high-
ly prized and the dairyman and the
egg man know its value. Good butter
and fresh eggs will always be wanted,
—The maple grove makes a good
sheep pasture in summer, but no sheep
should be allowed in it while sap is be-
ing collected. They are inordinately
fond of it, and for some reason it is
very hurtful to them, This is espec-
ially true of breeding ewes, and many
years ago we knew losses of lambs
from this cause. The sap is strongly
diuretic in its effects, and it may be in
this way that it is injurious.
There is no necessity for keeping
animals in a very fat condition unless
they are to be sold immediatelv. The
thriftieet animale are those that are
compelled to take some exercise, and
which are in moderate condition, Very
fat animals are subject to dizease, and
also suffer severely from the heat in
summer. It has Jong been known
that cows, sows and mares have failed
to breed when too fat, and the value of
males is lessened when they are over
ed and made very fat,
———The marvelous success of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla is based upon the corner
stone of absolute merit. Take Hood's
throughout the spring months.
