Farm Notes.
A certain Pennsylvania gentle
man said recently that "It no
longer paid to raise beef cattle,
because feeders and butchers de
clare in favor of western steers."
Since the gentleman is notaread
er of the News, we are not afraid
to 111 him that this condition is
his own fault. We know where
to lay our' hand3 on men who
have repeatedly tried both home-
raised and western feeders, and
the latter pay by far the better,
on an average, as they have the
bone and the constitution to take
on flesh. The whole trouble is
in the raising of the calves to
yearlings. The western cow rais
es her own calf, letting it suck
until she is ready to "go dry"
the following year. Too many
"mountain cattle," as they are
sometimes called, do not get the
start that western calves get,
and in consequence, are not in
demand at least not in demand
at equal prices with western feed
ers.

Committee.
In giving his experience with
worn-out, hilly, New York lands,
a dairyman said that he got good
results by scoring the land in the
spring with a spike-toothed har
row, fertilizing it, and sowing it
heavily with a mixture of grass
seeds, including clover. He
sometimes sows the seed in win
ter time while the ground i3
cracked open by frost. He then
uses judgment in pasturing it.
The same results can be had in
Fulton county. Washing away
of soil is thus avoided.
The United States Agricultural
Department is sending out warn
ings to farmers against the use
of Turkestan alfalfa seed. Cer
tain strains of the seed that have
been developed and acclimated in
this country, may suit for south
ern portions of this country but
commercial stock is condemned.
