. TIe Dairy Ctisincsn. .
The qucitiou has. often suct-ed
itself to us, why more iople do not
engage in the' Dairy business ia Ne
braska. The -country i3 certainly
naturally adapted for this besiness ;
pasture good, and plenty. From the
proceedings of tlio - Northwestern
Dairymen's Association, we clip the
following from the report of Holt
Bros., Kensha -county "Wisconsin.
"The Dairy consists of 87 cows all
told, averaging 82. The whole num
ber of pounds of cured cheese made,
was 43,001), giving a yield of 52- pounds
per cow. The above cheese was sold
at a price ranging between 21 and 23
cents, and tho proceeds per cow was
$78,75. This docs not include nny
butter made or cheese used in the fam
ily, or $200 worth of milk shipped to
Chicago in tho month of November.
Thcabovo cows had no mess given
them after they could fill themselves
on the pasture until about the first of
September. "While the pastures were
ravaged with grasshoppers we fed a
small mess of bran and commenced
drawing out corn fodder."

Coi R. "W. Furnas . Dear Sir
Your letter bearing date came to
hand, but, as it found us in a very
poor state of health, want of ambition,
togetlrer with a little slackness, has
been the cause of my delay in answer
ing it, but better late than never
will try to answer it now.
In the first place I would say, with
12 years experience and olervation,
out of over 100 varieties of apples I
have selected 2-5 which have proved
themselves well adopted to this cli
mate and soil, and will stand even
cultivation on our rich 'soil, and the
remaining 75 varieties will nearly all
remain sound if planted thick and the
ground is not cultivated after two
years from transplanting. The hardy
varieties I will here name as they in
clude all of the various qualities which
are necessary for an orchard, we have
but little use for the others.
Summer Apples. Bed June, Early
Harvest, Early Strawberry, Early
Joe, Williams Favorite.Summer Toar
inan, Red Astrachan.
Fall Apples. Early Red, Moth
er, William, Jersey sweeting, Duchess
of Olden burgh, Famouse, Gabriel,
Haw ley or Douse.
Winter Apples. Detroit Red, N.
Y. Pipin; Roman- Stem, Ladies
Sweeting; Jonathan, Rawles Jeanet,
Willow Twig, Red Canada, Northern
ftyjf i weet striped f Piphy AYlne Sap,
Newtown ipuuj f"HU lit'
All kinds of crab apples flourish to
perfection. ..... ; I
Pears thus far havo done woll, both
dwarf and standard.
The early Richmond Cherries I con
Eider the only variety perfectly relia
ble with clean cultivation.
Plums with me, grafted on the tame
stock with clean culture have not
flourished well, but grafted on the
wild stock, they do remarkably well
and in many instances on the tame
Etock without cultivation.
Teaches. The be6t we can depend
on them is, that we will get a good
crop about once in three years, they
must not be cultivated after one year
from transplanting.
Grapes, Of all kinds which are
adapted to this latitude flourish exceed
ing well. The Hauton Goofcebery nev
er fails ; the Eugz sometimes mildews,
when the bunches become very dense.
Blackberries. Flourish well
when protectedin the winter, and the
season moderately we.
. Hoping that; th is "delay" did not
inconvenience you in the least, and
that my report will prove satisfactory
to you, I remain,
Very Truly Your
Joel Draper.
Fruit Grooving.
J. II. Masters, one of the oldest
and most successful fruit growers in
Nebraska, writes the following excel
lent letter to the Nebraska City Press:
The sad experience of many of our
orchardists in Nebraska in the loss of
many of their first setting of fruit trees
by the peculiarities of our soil and cli
mate, have led us to inquire for a rem
edy for the ills to which our fruit trees
are subject. We will give you our ex
perience in fruit growing in this di
rection. The causes which have produced so
many failures are, the liability of wet
weather in August andthe first part of
September and the consequent large
prowth in September and October.
This growth should bo prevented or
stopped in September.
By examining your trees you will
find many water sprouts on. the large
limbs and some on the bdy of the
tree that continue to grow as though
the suinmar was before them, until
the first hard freeze finds the tree be
low them full of sap, and the death of
the tree or a part or it is tlio conse
quences.
The orchardist should prepare him
self with aeharp knife, and commence
trimming off all water sprouts closely
and neatlv so that the wound can heal.
This should be commenced about the
loth of September. - If they should
continue to throw out new shoots cut
them elf and'clio the tips of all the
branches ihat ' continue to prow. If
thi ia Allowed t.il the first hard
frost the vooi wi.i ia mobt cases be
ripe enough to pocs through the first
hard freeze Arithout injarri -and the
tree will be Su.fc. Rake "away weeds
and gras from the roots of your.trees
before the irround freezes, to prevent
mice from harboring around the roots
of your trees and pealing the bark on
and girdling tlicm.
The genuine Versailles currant cau

THE . , .
SALEM GRAPE!
8 lould be in every Oarden and every Vinevard In
the land. . We have good evidence thirt in the West
it is to be eminently succeytful. It is earlier, and
infinitely superior to the Concord in quality, and
must supplant that variety so fast as Its merits be
come known. The Salem, as Is well known, is the
best of the ".Rogers Hybrids." Mr. Bousra thus
describes it :
"Like other well known kinds. Xos. 4 and 13. this
is a Hybri'betww?n m native and the Black Ham
burg, bunch large and compact, berry large as
lianiourg.or a ngtitchestnutorCatawbacolor. thin
skinned, perfectly free from hard pulp, very sweet
and sprightly, with a most exquisite aromatic fla
vor; not equalled by any other out-door gnrpe for
wine or table; as early and hardy as Delaware or
llurtford, having never failed to ripen Its truit, in
the most unfavorable season, for the past six rears.
Tuking ali its qualities into consideration, earliness,
hardiness, and great vigor of vine, size and qualily
of fruit, it Is pronounced by the best judges who
have tried It, to have no equal among all the nu
merous varieties now before the public; and I can
with confidence recommend it as the best of all my
collection."
The bulk of the Salem Stock pawed from Mr.
Itoirers into the hands of Mr. T. L. Harris, at Salem
on-Krie, That gentleman ha ) acres of it in Vine
yard, and under date of Auglrth, writes :
UkarSir:-I have much jjleasure in continuing
to repont most favorably of the Salem. They are
rerfectly bardv in every respect, and a most vigor
ous grower. They have not suffered from the win
ter or the trying summer, escaping mildew where
other varieties have been affected seriously.
I am so well satisfied with their promise, that al
though I have thirty acres of this one variety, I
n:iei up most or the vacancies in my other vme
vards with them.
Yours truly T: W HARRIS.
Last spring we relieved Mr. Harris from the prop
agation of the Salem, by purchasing his entire
Flock of vines for transplanting, and also the wood
ironi ills large vinevara. we are consequently
able to offer to the public the . .
Largest and best stock of Salem
. f ines. In the Country,
at low rates, to larse and small planters.
If we are to compete with our California friends
!n Crape growing, we must plant the large and
showy varieties those which most nearly approach
tee choice foreign Kinds m appearance ana quality.
