Hard to Keep l Price. - Albany (N. Y.) milk dealers ore hav ing difficulty In maintaining the retail price at 8 cents per quart.' The demand baa fallen off somewhat ton account of the increase of 2 cents, and some deal era, rather tban carry their milk back some, have been catting the price to 0 eents. ' " " .. Skill la Mllkla. Milking la an operation which re quires skill, aa It baa an Important ef fect oa the amount and quality of milk given. Dairymen know that there are as great difference between milkers aa between cows and that cowa will do much better with good milkers than with others. Indeed, good cow are often almost ruined by poor milkers. ; . Tb (Bilker should avoid handling the cow more tban la necessary, and be abould make It a rale to do bis work quickly and thoroughly. lie should never go from a sick to a well row without first cleansing bia hands. The habit of wetting bis band with milk I filthy In the extreme and should never be practiced. Some people think It necessary, but this Is a mistake. The bands should be kept dry. if they are not it is impossible to prevent drops of milk from constantly falling from them into the palL The pall ahonld be held close to the udder, so aa to expo the milk to the air aa little aa possible.

We must first know the proliable need of our plants, then give regular care and ex rrclxc Judgment In inaliiliilulng certain trentmeiit or suKXeliillng It for some thing better sulu-d to the Immediate lequireuu'lits. The conditions of Hie soil lu the pot Is of lint importance. I'lunt of a suc culent uatuie or with fleshy root will usually object to real heavy soil. Oth ers may find uustiltcd conditions In an extremely light, porous soil. Where doiilit enters the- mind be safe' and adopt a medium grade of soli, loamy and porous. "Naturally heavy soil Is slow to take up moisture as well us slow In yielding It. Water poured on the surface of such find- slow entrance and slow pas sage. The. soli In tho bottom of a pot will rarely get Buy moisture, though mostly needed there, unless It be given by standing It for a few moments In a saucer of water. 1 Sucb soil becomes sodiitu sud sour and will likely be overwatered In the upper part. The extreme of this state light, snndy soil of course tnke water at once, nud It almost a quickly passes off. In a warm room the moisture will evaporate so quickly a to require wa tering- twice a day and each time thorough soaking. ' Medium light soil la seen to be the safest. Let It be Just so t'uat the water will enter at once and dumiicn the soil throughout the pot without miming off. - . riant In Jardinieres sometime suf fer by having water standing In the latter they "nro literally drowaed. On the other baud, if the plant Is growing. especially rapid growth, or flowering an nbumlnnx-e of water Is required, and what would ordinarily lie an oversup- ply Is then of great benefit. Light and air are of very great Im port mice, rl.iilts should have both ev ery day, and tlils ll;:lit must be dis tributed equ1t.ilrVy. Tlds Is neeeiupllsb- ud by turning .the plants around, ex posing them to the light ou all sides.

V'-' dfO', Mil coat of growing corn, cutting i and putting it in tba silo bn been vari ously reported at almost all figures frcui $1 to $3 per ton. says American Cultivator. We do not doubt but that It has been doue for tb smaller sum when tbe land has been made rich and well cultivated and the most modern Improvements were at band to do the work, but we think a fair average would be nearer double that with the ordinary farmer even In a favorable seuson. Hut there are not many wbc would like to grow roots far fording tt. stock at that price. Certainly we know of none who would grow them to sell at that isrlce, and few would care tc grow them at ti per ton If they could grow other crop and fiud a ready cash market for them. Aa regards the value of them, an average of the varlou root shows that the same amount of each fed with equal rations of hay and grain resulted a little In favor of th root, but this was more than offset by the two facts that the root cannot b kept in a good condition for late spring or summer feeding aa can the ensilage and that there 1 more apt to be a crop failure from drought! or otlut cause with the roots than with tb corn. The droughts of tbe two past years have led many to believe thnt ! having ensilage to feed in tbe summer,; when pastures are growing poorer. Is of almost bb much importance, and some say mot. than having it in the vvnat la tbe best style of silo la stil, a mooted question, Tbe round stave silo has been very popular for several years largely because It Is tho cheapest form of silo that can bo erected. When lroperly built and properly taken care of. It also seems to be fairly durable. Next in favor Is tbe square or rectan gular alio, with cut off eorners. Tbli makes an excellent silo. The remain ing style is tbe round silo built wholly of stone snd brick or with part stone and brick and above that a wooden structure with studding set In tbe wall and covered outside and Inside with thin boards that will bend to a circle, with best quality of building paper be tween tbe boards. It goes without say ing that a silo built of stone or brick or a combination of stone and brick will be more durable than any structure built of wood and in some places per haps not more expenalve. . A dairy farmer in Carlisle, Fan wltn 200 cows does not llke.cowpoas foi food for his herd. He sowed two acres, and the yield was good, but the cowt refused to eat them. lie thinks they might do for southern cows that can not get a square raenl without taking a mountain walk of a mile or more. He cannot understand bow well fed cows can be Induced to cat them. But there are farmers who claim that both cows and horses eat them greedily and seem to prefer them to other food, say the American Cultivator. But, as all du not. m:d tt seems to be an acquired taste, and as they areas difficult to cure as hay. we see no reason for urging a trial of theni on northern farmers or thoso who can grow clover, which seems t) suit the apctlte of all our animals and which produces nearly If not quite as much food per acre as the cowpou and as much milk per ton of dry or green food as any crop grown. The Massachusetts experiment station has spent much time and seme money In testing various fodder crops, but we think it has not yet found any bet ter than the combination of corn fod der and clover, which seems to grow In almost any fertile soil to furnish food thnt all animals like and thrive on, whether green or dry cured, and that leave the land in as good If not better condition for future crops as any crops that have been tried.
