Everything wblcb can be reaaonalily done ahould be performed for her com fort and convenience. For rarb rowi It la tiaually better to grind the grain. Inrlmllng both corn and oata. Heifers ami cows nearly dry ahould not receive such concentrates, and aurh an laiala can often be given nnground corn and oata advantageously. Thna It will be seen yiat there la do fixed role BAN IT IALT THOUGH. In these mnttora. One must be guided In all cases by the prevailing condi tion a. In general let It be aald that If hardworking anlmala are receiving much grain the grain should be ground, while for tline receiving little grain or that are not worked hard the grain need hardly be ground unless It la un satisfactory because It la hard or for aotne other reason. Of course where the grain la nut ground shotea should be on hand to get what they can from the voldl una. ' Dairymen Hhouhl see that their cans are well provided with aaltpoter.

Farm Tests ef Tews. Professor R. II. Farrlngton of the Wisconsin agricultural experiment sta tion aays that at the present time there la not much necessity of urging cream eries to use the Ftahcock test Within the past five years It has become al most universally adopted as a Just and satisfactory means of determining the value of all milk delivered to both creameries and cheese factories In the advanced American dairy states. Creamery patrons can no longer sell milk to the factory by weight only, nei ther can the factory hny It In this way. It Is generally agreed that milk ought Dot to be bought simply by the pound any more than a cow or a horse. We would all think It absurd to aee or hear tbe statement that horses were quoted In tbe market at a certain price per pound, but such a statement la not much farther behind the tlmea than tbe practice of buying and selling milk by weight without testing It Since the practice of testing all milk at butter and cheese factorlea has become so well established the Justness of the plan bas led many farmers to apply the same test to their cowa. This, It seems to me. Is the direction In which the nse of the test should be pushed st the present time. Every farm that sup ports cows for the purpose of selling tbelr milk ought to be provided with a pair of scales and a Hancock test By weighing and testing the milk of each cow a sufficient number of tlmea the owner can keep himself Informed of the actunl performance of each cow. Records of this kind show the relative value of the cowa as milk producers and aid In determining the actual prof it or loss which should be charged to each cow annually. At the Connecticut station the best time for grafting the chestnut has been fonnd to lie from May 13 to June 1.. Whip grafts on small stocks made the best uulsou. Cleft grafting Is desirable for large stocks. Kollage should be left around the graft to protect It from tbe sun's rays. When the grafting Is skillfully M-rforniod, it can lie reason ably expected that about 50 per cent of the scions will grow. POTATO CULTURE. A "Happy Weitlem" Rsem Per I Hklrh Hark Is Claimed. "Happy Medium" Is the name lie- j stowed by an Ohio Tanner writer on a system of potato planting for which bis claims are by no means small, aa may be seen from the following: The points of snjierhirlty which f claim over any other system are: t'lrst. adaptability to the different soils tf the sections where potstoea are grown, north or south; second, the Siost perfi-ct system for a change of teason to wet or dry weather and tbe nly one that will secure the most profitable results In either case; third, the most even crop of tubers and the I nest quality: fourth, the system that Is In Itself the most effective prevent ive known for rot and blight and bas proven successful for 1!S years without an exception.

Tbe cultivators are started at once, and the Boll Is worked up fine between ! tbe rows to a depth of two Inches be low the seed piece, allowing the cultl- ' vator teeth to ruu quite deep and close to the roots, as shown In the second figure. Rendering the soil loose around and below the seed piece Is the object, j aa the first roots that form run right around the seed piece and down to the loose eoll below. Now If this operation ' Is performed quickly and thoroughly the plant will Immediately throw out ' a second and third Bet of roots that will seek the lowest depth attained by the cultivator and below, filling all the soil nnder and around the seed ph-ce very full of small roots. This loosening of the soli ahould be accomplished by the time the potato tops are not over three Inches In height.

Dirty seed endangers the farm by Introducing weed seeds. Ixw priced seed Is often poor aeed, and It Is then far more expensive than a high priced ' good aeed. The price of seed per ' pound or bushel Is no accurate meas ure of Its value. Tbe true value la found by testing the sample and thus determining the per cent of good seed Tbe American Association of Nurs erymen will celebrate their twenty Bftb anniversary of organization at Chicago June 13 and 14. As destroyers of ninny of our moat pestiferous night flying Insects, like mosquitoes, the bat la almost our aole dependence, and as be Is known to hunt Insects afoot as well aa on the wing be la also of some value for Inrvrr that do pot fly.

In 1899 bat 84 per cent of tbe supply of the world was from cane and 00 per cent from beets. Vale Sklmmllk. Feeding tests carefully conducted at our experiment stations have demon strated that a proper proportion of corn meal fed with sklmmllk bas given so much better results when fed to pigs than either fed separn ely that It la good policy to go to the expense of grinding the corn and mixing with the milk Instcsd of throwing out the corn m the ear and giving them the milk to drink. In one of the Wisconsin farm era Institutes when Professor Henry reported the result of his experiments a this subject one old farmer after a little mental calculation exclaimed, "Well, I always knew a bushel of corn to a barrel of milk mnde good bog feed, bnt I did not know It waa the beat" We have all of us known that sklm mllk waa the best of all foods for young pigs, says a correspondent of The Prairie Farmer, but few of us have fed It to the heat possible advan tage. Calves can be raised on sklm mllk and flaxseed or flaxmeal so that they will be as large at a year old As those raised on whole milk. Where the aeed can be obtained at a reasona ble price It Is far Iiettcr for thla pur pose than the meal, as It contains more of the elements that have been taken ont of the milk by skimming. One quart of seed put In one gallon of wa ter and boiled for an hour, then slight ly thickened with either wheat flour or I buckwheat flour, csn be nsod to warm I np the milk for six or eight calves, and If these calves are arly taught to eat a few oata they can be kept growing right along. When the calf that has ' run with the cow Is weaned. It has to learn to eat and will lose most of Its butter fat, while the other Is !n better condition to face winter and will fre quently come out the better animal In the spring. lTrf Laws Mar Came. The lone contest In Ohio over the ntlcolor oleo law has been settled by a decision of the supreme court sus taining a statnte which prohibits tbe sale of oleo colored In Imitation of but ter, says The Rreeder's Gawtte. Among II fair minded men there is general recognition of the fact that bntterlne as well aa other Imitation r-cd.icts or substitutes for articles of diet should be sold to the consumer for exactly what It Is.

K. Itarret! lu The American Cultivator. There are very few silos that are absolutely perfect that Is. as uli-tlght as a fruit cun or Jar. That, however, la what every one Is luboriug to do when he builds one, and the near er be approaches this Ideal the less will his loss prove. The more successful we are In keeping the air from the body of the fodder after it Is cut aud stored awjy the less likely will it be to decay or lose any of its nourishing qualities. Irwe the fodder exposed to the air, and It dries up, and with the evapora tion of the moisture from it a good deal of the nourishing elements will dlsap-IH-ar also. If a small loophole ts al lowed in the silo, destructive fernierj tation soon begins, and this can I checked only by shutting out the- air. Cracks and knotholes are therefore the weak points In every silo, and more than one large mass of ensilage has been ruined through iguoranco or neg lect of these In selecting the corn or other fodder for the solo it ia quite essential that It KN8II.AI.K t'tlTTKK. bhould have arrived at a certain stage of maturity. Chemical change begin in the silo shortly after the fodder is put In, even if the place Is absolutely iiirtlRht, ami these changes must be allowed for. Fermentation of a certain order must begin, and the heat of the mass will increase so aa to cause this. The more water there la In the ensilage the greater will these chemical changes he, and In some Instances they would destroy the liber of the food. Corn cut before It has properly matured. Indicat ed by the glu.ing or denting of the ker nel, has too much water in It to ninke good ensilage. When pressed Into the silo, the water Is forced out of the stalks and settles gradually at the bot tom of the inasa. This great mass of water at the bottom of the silo alwaya causes trouble and In uiue cases out of teu produces sour ensilage. Sometimes the sourness may pot extend far up, but It Is prottyuire to cause more or less mischief. Id-sides this, young corn fodder Is deficient lu the full amount of nutri ment. On the other baud. If we let the corn get much beyond the stage of ma turity Indicated there will not be suffi cient water In It to preserve l The stalks will be stiff and unyielding, and they will not be pressed down solid enough to make a compact mass. The result will lie that there will be too much air In the silo, aud mold la very apt to form. These few points In re gard to the alio should lie watched and guarded against carefully if we would have perfect ensilage for next winter's feeding. Cement Floor For Cow Stables. We think the best floor for the stable Is a cement floor made nearly level, but with a alight slope fr,ji front to rear and but a shallow gutter at the lower side to carry away liquids to sAirne point where they will discharge Into tbe manure heap or Into a cistern pro vided to receive tbm. We prefer the former plan when practicable, says Tbe American Cultivator. Then for each stall we would cut timber about two Inches square and aa long aa the stall was wide and on three of these nail plank as long as the animal we ex pected to stand on tbem, with a narrow space between the planks to allow the liquids to drain through to the cement floor. These stall floors we would have so that they could be shoved under the monger at the upper end to accom modate a longer or shorter animal. With the two Inch Joist and two Inch plank we would have a drop of four Inches behind each animal, and tbe length being Just right this would be enough for puroses of clea'nl Incss. . Thus we should have a plank floor for the animals to stand upon and beneath It a floor that would not absorb mois ture or retain unpleasant odors, one , that we could sweep or even wash when we desired and one that would be likely If properly made to outlnst many of the plank stnll floors. rrr Fodder. When pasture Is at Its very best, we would feed little or no grain, but add good hay, clover preferred. In its place, pays Hoard's Halrymnn. We have long advocated the feeding of some dry fod der In connection with pasture and si lage. This was done partly on theoret ical grounds and partly because we have noticed In our own herd the crav ing of the cows for some dry fodder and that they apparently did as well when thus fed as when they received grain. Our own opinions were very fully confirmed by some accurate ex periments made by Professor Sanborn In New Hampshire. Of course when the pasture becomes short and dry It is expedient to add more or less grain, and under the circumstances and the prices given by our Missouri friend we would use equal parts by weight of bran and gluten feed, the amount to be allowed daily to be governed by cir cumstances. UNPROFITABLE FRAUD. Maw Taaernpalaaa Cheeaemakers Rave I.J. red the Ba.laeaa. Not far from 200.000.000 pounds of cheese are produced In this country an nually.

Other heavy producing states are Vermont Penn sylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Illinois. 1'he New York state output dropped rearly flo.ono.noo pounds In seven years, says The Rural New Torker.

At tlie Iuilry Institute at Sprlnirfleld, Mass., Professor t'ooley snld: The feed does not alTeet tlio rlchw-Ma of tlie milk. You cannot tell by tlie looks of milk liow rieli It Im. We cannot afford to run cows on half time. To get tiled crude, milk lirusb tlie cows before milking, and It Is ml vised by many that tlie udders be cliptl. Manage Id have tlie cows come fresh, so as to maintain a uniform supply throughout the y.ir. It Is claimed that summer sllnge will stop summer nlirinkiu-e. Overall should be clean. Oon't hav them stinVtie.l n illi dnli-y starch. Don't make a slriilner do too niueli work. Have a fresh one for every tel or s dozen cows. Cool the milk and keep It at given tcmpi-rutyre. Care, cleanliness: and cold are the three "c's" of milk in-odtiellon. The (Jeriiinii dairymen have a stall which seenm nearly perfect. The plat form Is Just the rlKht length for the cow, and hi-hlm! It Ih a deep ditch of six or right Inches, with a ledge pint way down, so tlmt the cow In slipping off docs not slip clear to the bottom. The cows soon lenrn to stand out of the ditch and kiep perfi-ctly clean. Quick Work Orotfou.
