In protein, and for thnt reason should

The carefully kept cows on the De
troit dairy farm receives four ounces
of salt dally, mixed with their feed.
Tboy eat their food hotter, and the
owner thinks they do better when they
have this amount than when tho allow
ance Is smaller. The cows are fed
three times a day .and the salt is di
vided between the three feeds. Fine
table salt Is Invariably used. The
cows prefer It to coarse salt
Hprtn Patqr,
When tho spring opens thero Is a
temptation to put btoclc on tho pas
tures rather early In the Benson. This
should not bo done, as tramping by tho
animals may do harm. A heirfry roller
should be uaed over tho pasture field
so as to press down nnd smooth the sur
face for tho mower, if the field Is cut
for hay. Very young grass or rye Is
laxative, and cows will fall off In tho
yield of mlllc If put on too oarly or
kept on the pasture too long.

Apple .SrrdlltiK".
Wo nro asked the question If tin
seedling used In grafting apple exerts
any inllueiice on tho tree as to hardi
ness and If so what are tho best to
use. The apple seedling Is tho foundation
fot tho tree, as the scion depends on
this nt least the tlrst two years for
establishing Itneir and forming tho nu
cleus of the future tree. In the past
there has not been given tho attention
ns thero should have been to hardiness
and adaptability of tho stocks of our
different fruit trees, and It has Just
commenced to bo agitated by horticul
turists the Inst few years, it has been
the custom of many nurseries to Im
port from Trance seedlings of French
crab and domestic npples for grartlng
on. Many of these nre known to b- ten
der and hence many of the losses from
trees dying out could bo traced If wo
knew directly to the stocks on which
tho treo had been grafted, if wo were
to savo seed from such varieties as
Duchess of Oldenburg, wealthy, north

where It Is washed out of the pumlco of
the cider mills In sections where they
hnvo had for years largo seedling or
chards. Whllo the fruit was inferior,
yet tho trees were hardy, nnd this Is
the only requirement In n stock, ns tho
quality of the treo will always bo In
fluenced by tho scion. Twentieth Cen

Pruning the Plum Trcea,
It linn been frequently noticed thnt
old plum trees do not produce ns good
qunllty fruit as n rule as tho younger
trees nnd sometimes hecomo vory In
ferior nnd unproductive. In many cases
tho old trees would be benefited by se
voro cutting back, and besides thnt. It
wouVl be well to keep tho plum treo In
bettor training than has been tho usu
al practice In tho west; cutting back
tho long and spreading branches, nnd
compelling then) to head In short nnd
closo to tho trunk. This might not bo
good practice for nil varieties, nnd It
would bo well to undertnko It with
some en re, selecting nomo fow Individu
als nnd noting tho effect of such pruu
!ng upon them. Kurnl World
