Western Plowman, IRRIGATION AND TRKR CVLTTKR. The necessity for treo culture is equally imperative with irrigation, and the arid lands question will never be satisfactorily settled without the recognition of this principle in its solution. America can ill afford to ignore the experience of other Nations in this respect, and forestry should receive equal consideration with irri gation. It has been estimated that within historic times somo seven millions of square miles along the shores of the Mediterranean, once highly fertile, have been changed into worthless deserts, and for nearly two thousand years the inhabitable portion of the earth has decreased at the average rate of 3500 square miles. This has been produced by the direct agency of man, the evil being chiefly duo to river floods caused almost exclusively by the destruction of land protecting forests. It is right that America should set the examplo of reclaiming desert lands, and thus increase the earth's capacity for supporting the human race. Irrigation and treo culture must go hand and hand in this work. Colinan's Rural World. rnrrr orowtno 1"or rnoprr. Tho best land for fruit growing is a loam with some gravel in it, bnt good drainage is indispensable for success, riurus and pears will do better on heavier soils than other fruits. There is no doubt of the profit of either of these two fruits, but both are difficult of culture, and skill and extreme care are necessary to succeed. Both are liable to diseases and attacks of injuri ous enemies that must be most care fully guarded against. Then either frnit may pay several times as much profit as any other common kinds. The spring is the best time to plant these fruits, but apples may be planted in the fall quite as well as in the spring. In choosing varieties it is well to con sult the nurserymen from whom the trees are purchased, as they will know the best kinds for the locality and soil. Otherwise any experienced fruit grower of tho neighborhood may be consulted. As a rnle, it is best to procure the trees from the nearest nursery, and thus avoid the risks of delay in transportation. Fears are set twenty feet apart, and plums need about the same space. It has been found profitable to set out dwarf pears between the rows of the standard trees, as they will begin to boar the third year, and by the time the others be gin to bear they will have repaid all the cost of planting, and, under favorable circumstances, a respecta ble profit. When the planter has the experience and skill needed, there is no more profitable agricultural enter prise than fruit growing. New York Times. ESSEOTUM IN STRAWBERRY OROWISO.

I hose which succeed well on wide areus are usually better than those which have a more local reputation. Pistillate vaneiies, when properly fertilized, r.ro more productive than the sorts with perfeot rlowers. The value of a variety for fertiliz ing pistillate flowers does not depend so much upon the amount as upon the potency of its pollen. The flowers of pistillate varieties are less liable to be injured by frost than the flowers of perfect varieties. Varieties thut are neither verv early nor very late in point of maturity, are tuo niott productive and have the longest fruiting season. As a rule, varieties that have the most vigorous and healthy foiluge are the least productive, while those with a weaker growth of foliuge and greater susceptibility to leaf blight are usually the more proline. Winter protection may be dispensed with upon well drained soils, but ap pears to bo a necessity upon heavier ones. The leaf blight mav bo checked by using the Bordeaux mixture, beginning just as soon as the leaves appear, and continuing the application every few weens throughout the season.

The cuttings that are gathered in the winter should bo tied in loose bundles, and be art in damp sand in a frost proof collar where they will keep until needed in the spring. As soon as the soil dries out iu the spring they should be planted. The young shoots of last season should be selected for these cuttings, and thoy should be cleft from the main bushes so that they will be about one foot loug. Those are nearly all buried in the spring in doep, rich soil, leaving only four inches of the tips above the ground. Tho soil must be trampled down firmly around them. They will begin to start almost im mediately, and a young orchard ol t rees or shrubs will soon prove a great blessing. Not only fruit bearing trees will succeed in this way, but nearly all shade trees. It is probably tho easiest way of starting young trees that can bo devised. Quince orchards should be started every few years if a good crop is ex pected annually, and there is no easier, quicker aud surer way than selecting tho cnttings in the winter months, when there is plenty of time, and then starting them out early in the spring. Meanwhile, the land on ' which they have been started can be planted the same as usual for a season or two af terward. American Cultivator. HIOHEST rROFrra IN moHEST rKKDINO. Ten cows were fed a ration begin ning with eight pounds of grain and twelve pounds of hay, and gradually increasing up to as high as nineteen pounds of grain and twenty-seven pounds of hay per day and head, and then gradually decreasing to the or iginal amount. Throughout this test at the Pennsylvania Experiment Sta tion accurate notes were taken of the amount and cost of the food, the amount of milk produced by each animal and its butter value as determ ined by t he Babcock test. Perhaps the most striking lesson is tho demonstration given of the profit there is in liberal feeding. The cheap est ration used cost 18.8 cents per day and produced butter valued at 26. C cents, making a net profit of 7. 7 cents per day per cow. An increase of 2.9 ants per day per cow in tho cost of this ration made the daily value of the butter 81 cents, and the net profit 9.3 cents per day, or a difference of 1.6 cents per day per cow in favor of the more costly ration. In other words, the farmer who attempted to econo mize by feeding the cheaper ration, would, with a herd of twenty-five cows, save Si! 17 per year on his feed bills, but would lose $337 worth of butter that he might have produoed with the more costly ration, so that his ill-judged attempt at economy would result iu a net loss of $120. i.ne cheaper ration, moreover, is what would ordinarily be considered a good ration, aud the majority of dairy men would be likely to feel less, rather than more, yet the results show con clusively that with such cows as these the more expensive ration was really the more economical. A further increase of the eost of the ration, however, to 25.1 cent per day gave no further increase in the butter product, and the net profit was thereby cut down to 4. a cent per day, or 1.8 cent less than with the cheapest ration of the three, in other words, the ex periraents indicate that there is certain medium ration for each cow whjch will give the greatest net profit, and that any attempt to economize by feeding less than this will result in a loss. while, on the other hand, it is possible to feed a cow too much as well as too little. Generally, however, there is much more duuger of feeding too lit tie than too much. New England Homestead. FARM AND GARDEN NOTES. Fatten yonr sheep before selling.

HOW TO MAKE AN OMF.t.rT. 'If it were my privilege to examine all the rooks in the city," says Jlr.i. llorer, "I should first put them to making omelets, as nothing would be tray more quickly the skill or ignor ance of a cook than the handling of the breakfast omelet." And then she explains how it. should bo made. Have an omelet pan about eight lu etics in diameter one made from sheet iron preferable. Tho bottom should be as smooth as glass. If not, put into it a teaspoonful of salt, aud then with a piece of brown paper scour it thor oughly. Po not wash it after, simply turn the salt out and put in a piece of butter the size of a walnut. Break four to six eggs into a bowl, and with a fork give twelve to fifteen vigorous beats, not enough to make themixtnro light, but to thoroughly mix thowhito nnd the yolks of tho eggs. Betting either together or separately robs ergs of their flavor, and also makes small air cells, which expaud as the pan is heated and cool as the omelet is turned over for tho table, thus making a heavy rather than a light and tender one. Do not add salt or pepper to tho ome let until it ia nearly done. Salt toughens the eggs. Add one teaspoon ful of boiling water to each egg as soon as they are beaten. Tut iu a pieco of butter the size of a hickory nut. Now put the frying pan over the fire, hav ing already placed in it a piece of but ter the size of a walnut, and as soon as it is melted, not brown, pour iu the eggs, riaee over a quick fire, shako as soon as the omelet begins to have a set appeorance ; with a limber knifo lift the eggs, allowing the more liquid part to go underneath, thus forming layers, as it were, being very careful not to tear the omelet, or it will havo tho appearance of scrambled egLrs. Now Bprinklo the omelet with salt and pepper, and continue lifting until the whole has been put in a jellylike con dition. If the pan is perfectly smooth the omelet will not stick. When done and set, not hard, slip a knife uuder the omelet that part next the handle of the pan roll it over, then turn gently on to a heated dish ; serve at ouee. It is better that you should wait rive minutes for your omelet than that your omelet should wait one miu nte for you. You will notice I have used water in preference to milk. Milk contains small amount of cheese, toughens in cooking and spoils the omelet. Neither should you use thickening of any kind cornstarch or flour. Simply take the egg and water and you will have a tender, delicious omelet. une more caution, the omelet should not be a dark brown, as it destroys the flavor of the egg. HOUHEBOLD HINTS.

An unproved machine possessing all these fentures has been constructed. Its various movements are controlled by the turn of a hand wheel. In the working of tho mixers tio materials are brought from each of the four corners of the receiving trough to tho centre of the machine, incorporating tho flour aud liquor thoroughly by evenly intermix ing them, but without rubbing them against, the side of tho trough. Tho maeluuo hns two speeds ono for brcakiug the sponge and for quickly mixing thu materials, and the other for the kneading operation. The gear ing for producing these speeds is actu ated by menus of a hand-wheel, which acts quite independently, without stopping the machine. Tho arms of the machine upon one side are made to act in the opposite direction to those upon the other side, or to work in the same direction by tho ainiple movement of a hand lever. Tho trough can bo tilted while tho beaters are either in motion or at rest. All the shafts revolve iu split gnu-metal bear ings, and the kneading arms are pro vided with cone bearings of special construction. The gearing and work ing parts are carefully covered so as to prevent any danger of accident while working tho machine. Chicago Kec ord.
