How Loiib Cnwi hhatl He Kept, I'nless a cow has a renin i kabh- indi vidual value as a milk niid butler pro ducer, and has shown ability to perpet uate these iu:i lit It's In her progeny, ten to twelve years old is long enough lo keep her. says an exchange. A good many cows condemn themselves long before that time. We have known cow to breed up to eighteen or nineteen years old, hut they had to be fed ground grain and bran, mixed with moistened cut hay. There was no profit In milk and butter made this way, for the old cow gradually lessened her yield. The obtect was to produce citlvcM from this cow to be UM-d (or breeding. Hut ns th cow- decreased in value, so also did her calves. Those last ImiIII were feeble and not very good milker, either. A cow whose milk pnsluctlon has heeu artificially forced for two or three years I apt never thereafter to come up lo the standard she had before, ns the production of an excessive amount of milk impair the animal' constitution al vigor. To Teat Butter. A possible way to test butter Is to get a clean piece of while paper, smear it with the suspected article, then roll it up and set It on fire. If the butter Is gisid, the smell of burning will be riecld edly pleasant, but If there Is artificial animal fat In the composition, there is no mistake about the tallowy odor. A boat flowing. I'lowlng I hard work for the team but it Is comparatively easy work fpr tile plowman, except on rocky or stumpy land, where the plow has fre quently to be pulled buck and lifted up to avoid some olist ruction. Kor these reasons a stn :ig. .ictlvi team that will ,k r nt wu a j flirrmv ,,, ,,,, ,lt H,,,.uwj :f possible. It I not easy to make good work with a poor team, and if It Is not equal to It task there is much unneces sary waiting at the end of the furrow and resting. The work of holding the plow la so easy on level land free from stone, that even a child can do it, while holding the handle make it easier work to walk In the furrow than to fol low the same team with a drag over plowed ground. Thnt i hard, dragging work for both man and teams, mid It needs an aMe-bodled man instead of the young boy who I usually put at this Job, while the man take a hi part the far easier task of holding the plow, which on level, clean land I no task nt all. Aahea with fttatile Manure. Whoever ha ever mixed fresh caus tic aahea with manure from the stable know how quickly a strong odor of anilnoula la given off. It I wasteful of the fertlllier to do this wblie the manure 1 exposed to the air, but wheu It la to be plowed under very noon the lose ia not great. In the soil the nshes will not only make the manure ferment more rapidly, but they will theiiiselvi become much more valuable ferllli-'r through absorption of the ammonia. Thi will quickly convert enustje potash Into the nitrate of potash, which Is the most powerful fertilizer known, and I good for any kind of crop. We have aometitnes applied hen manure In bill for melon and cucuiiiIhts, mix ing It with the earth, and after mixing aprlnkllng a few hard wood ashes in the bed and covering with earth liefort planting the seed. Vine thus treated did better thun with any other kind of manure we ever tiaed. Feeding Value of Manure. Concerning the feeding value of raw potatoea for nilh h cow, John (iould, the well-known Western dairyman, aay: "Compared with ordinary food at preaewt prteea they are worth from 6 to 7 cent per buhel. When fed raw to a cow the potato Influence her Bill. The milk will not oivain o well, anfj the butter will lack lu grain and tet-l ture. I would not feed more than a peck per day to a cow. A creamery in Clinton County lost their entire trade because the patron fed an excesa of raw potatiHP to their eowa. Some of them fed a bushel or more per day to a cow. The New York expert butter men who handled the butter wrote the patron, telling them they were feeding potatoes in too large quantities, and If their trade was recovered potatoea uiu st be abandoned. When cooked and mixed with some nitrogenous grain they are a good ration, if not fed In too large quantities. They are best a a fattening ration for pig or other fa' tcuiiig animals. 1'runinit Treea Before Transplanting. In ordering trae from a nursery ;t should be remembered that the pruning is never completed aa it ahould b when the trees are put Into the ground. There 1 usually a quantity of top with per haps 50 to HJ buds, each of which if left to grow will produce a feeble shoot. Cut the top hack to three or four buds and leave these to grow Into the future branches of the tree. Thus started the tree will begin to make It top tho first Reason after setting out. The roots also will need to be cut back as well as the tops. In most cases, If the trees liave been sent fur and have been long on their journey, the small feeding roots w ill lie dried up and of no uc Cut the large roots with a knife that will make a clean cut, and the new roo' - will spring from these. The Ki penal veneaa of Pasturing. Wherever land ia dear the pasfjr providcH for Block that, considering itf nutritive value, U much dearer thrill that grown hy cultivation. In the firs', i-laco, the gras, even if tiudlHturhed, does not yield as heavy a crop a will most of the grains and corn drilled for fodder. In the pasture the constant trampling of stock lessens the yield still further. What the stock waste In a . lover field will in most place pay for the latsir of cutting and carrying the clover to them, provided the field Is near w here the stock Is kept, and the cutting of the clover can he done by horse power. Yet there are many placca where cultivation is Impossible, and using these as permanent pasture is the only way to make the land use ful and profitable. Helling Ability Neeeary. The American Hairy man remark, that selling ability Is Just now more il" Ira bit; to farmer than producing alii! Ity, and that the place to display It Is in packing. The farmer must lead the consumer Into temptation, which may be contrary to Scripture, but. I neces sary to sell goods. Even a cabbage is trimmed up by ttie skillful salesman to attract the customer. The Dairy man Illustrates by the sale of a large consignment of California fresh fruit which was beautifully packed, and brought prices to delight the owner's soul, while other fruit, not opening nt well, went for a song. Heat Chemical Dehorner. The l'st chemical dehorner, accord ing to Hoard's I Hiiryuiau, I caustic pot ash, to be had In stick for a few cents at any druggist's. Wheu the calf I a few day old, clip off the hair over the horn button, moisten one end of the caustic (hold the other end wrapped in paper) and rub It on the button until the skin Is very red and highly In flamed. When the scab come off, if the least trace of the horn nut remains, repeat the application. Put the caustic only on the nut button, a it burns in tensely. Whent limit for Cows. ' No kind of feed 1 so handy for fewl ing milch cows as wheat bran; It Is light and bulky iu proportion, to ll nutrition, and it ha the elements needed to make a large milk How. But It does not mak" rich milk, and need to be supplemented with grain mewl, or the cow will give so much from her own fat that she will become thin in flesh, and be of little: use for butter-making the following season. Farm Note. The way that bogs have been going In the face of the low ratea for cattle, sheep and home ha been very cheer ing to awlne producer. The price compared with the price of grain Is one of profitable production. Never lie satisfied with what the farm doe, but endeavor to still further Improve it. The farmer who concludes that he has reached the beat that can lie obtained from his farm will find himself going backward. Successful farmers are those who are striving to obtain more. Farm, Stock and Home hold that under present condition the mm paid for hired help must be the smallest ixisslble, and only concentrated prod uctsbutter, beef, pork, wool, poultry, etc. should be shipped by rail. Along these lines lay large dose of agri cultural salvation. It is much easier to feed whole grain than to grind It, but It la better to put the labor to It than to lose In the feed. Cround grain can be more In t mutely mixed with coarse food, and iu thnt reect It not only serves to balance the ration, but the combina tion of foods cheapens the whole and more perfect digestion result. Here is a point on asparagus. A great many persona who grow It do ao wJth flut culture. The proper mode for the best result Is to hill up the row. Apply fertiliser on the rows now while they are flat, and then turn a furrow on the row from each side. If the row I hilled up two feet It Is all the better. Cut the sulk just aa they are peeping' out of the ground. They wlU then be tender from the tip to the botta, and aa white aa celery. If allowed to grow out of the ground the tip will bt tender and the butts tough. ACTORS ON THE ROAD. Observant Train Boy Who Haa Noted Their Peculiarities. A train loy on one of the leading railroad thua gives his olservatlou on actor: '-One of the most noticeable habit of the 'profession' when they are on the road Is the way they seat them selves In a train. The leader Invaria bly ait by themselves, ami the rest of the company follow suit, each accord ing to his own view of hi position. And never, except on rare occasion, do they address a word to the member of the company whom they consider lower in rank. It i very easy for a train Is.y to get iuto conversation with a member of a troupe. The train lioy la of so little importance, you know, that surely there is no harm iu talking to him. And, Judging by the stories I have told me, there are more stars on the stage than the th.-ater-golng public ha any idea of. "Oil what a difference between a com pany going out ami w hen you see them straggling back In twos and threes minus their Iwiggiifje. On the way out each one I bragging aiiout the com panies they have been with. This one was not up to the standard, but thr manager being n personal friend of hi or her they decided to help him out.' On the way back note the difference. If they milt at all it i rather low, and they wonder If there i any chance for them yet this Benson. But, as a rule, I rather think they wait around till next season. "On the road they spend a good deal of their time In sleeping, and It Is amaz ing the way an old hand at one-night stands can curl himself up in a s.tit. One often hears people who know nothing at all of theatrical life say it I one of the easiest professions there is. Perhaps It I In the large cities, but there is a wonderful difference in a company starting out and a company returning from six or eight weeks of one-night stands. That tired look they come buck with Is not there when they start out. ''But what surprises one most Is the Jealousy existing among the various member of a company. Though, If one considers a moment, It Is not sur prising at all. Kacli Is so assured of hie own ability and his own superiority over the rwt that there Is bound to be a clash. This Jealousy is more notice a Lie among the women, though the men have It to a lesser extent. The men are the most Inveterate poker players I harp ever seen. But. though poker Is their chief amusement, you seldom see them playing during the middle of the week, as they start playing as soon as they are paid, and usually lose all they care to lose by Monday morning. They are nearly nlwnys cheerful, their bump of self-esteem carrying them through trial that would dishearten mi ordin ary mortal." Phlladephla Times. I.inia Mean. "Probably three-fourth of the lima bean consumed In this country," said a Oallfornian, "are grown In Califor nia, and a great portion of them are raised In the Santa Clara Valley. The climate and surrounding there are es pecially suited to the raising of these, for It I so dry that the beans can be grown right on the ground, thus sav ing the expense of pole and of prop ping the vines up In any way. Yon don't And over one. bad or Imperfect bi-nn In a bushel. The result is that it costs so little to grow them that they can In turn be sold cheap. You can buy them In the market and stores Kast at retail at four and five cent a pound. In California the growers are glad to get one cent a pound for them -shelled and dried. I know of one furm that shipped seventeen carloads of these bean last season. As a body and brain food, the lima Is much more valuable: than the ordinary white or black bean."

Part of the cargo which Is going on board the steamer Victoria at Tacoma, snya the Philadelphia Record, Is over 1,000 bales of Texas cotton, which hat been carried by the roundaJxs.it way of St. Paul over the Northern raclflc Rail road to be delivered to purchasers In Japan. There la no doubt of a large Increase In these rail deliveries of cot ton Intended for China and Japan, to be manufactured In new cotton mills es tablished In those countries, the product of which will displace Indian and Brit ish goods. Pound After Many Years. A strange story of money recovered come from Liverpool. A chimney sweep In cleaning an oven flue found 40 In coin In a bag. On telling the lady of the house she burst Into tears and faints. She had put the money there herself years ago, and, having forgotten the fact, accused her son, who was rather wild, of stealing It, with the result that be had left the house In Indignation and had never re turned.
