When I got married and had my first child I was m terrible pain so that it was impossi ble for me to do my housework. I thought of how the Vegetable Compound had been o f so much benefit to me when I was a girl, so I went to Perier’ s Drug store and got six bottles.

The head of the French government receives less than $6,000 a year in j salary and since in the last 30 years no French premier has been In office i for a longer period than 23 months, none of them has been able to tHke advantage of the law granting ” a life long pension after six years spent per manently In office.''

The wife of the janitor does the daily cleaning and when a caller rings Brland's doorbell the old statesman opens the door himself. Edward Her- rlot, who knows that French premiers do not remain long In office, did not resign his position as mayor of Lyons, a position he has held for 20 years. j Every Saturday afternoon he went to his home town. 300 miles from Paris, and spent Sunday attending to the af-' j fairs’ of that prosperous city. Rabbits have been very destructive to fruit trees and ornamental trees and shrubs during the past few win ters and are a growing menace to fruit growers and to others. They often do so much injury to the trunk that it la hopeleaa to try and save the tree unless the tree Is cut off below the Injured part and the stub grafted, several scions being Inserted, the num ber depending on the size of the stub, but this Is nsuHlIy only satisfactory when the trees are quite small. If grafting la done. It should he In the spring In order to have the heat suc I cess. If the trees have only been planted a year or two It wlh be pos sible In some cases to obtain a new tree by cutting off the top close to the ground but above the point o f union with the stock, from which point a new shoot, which will make another trunk, should grow. If the trunk Is not girdled, the top may be saved by bridge-grafting, or Inserting several scions which span the girdle and con nect the parts above and below the girdle, as shown In the Illustration. The scions soon unite with the trunk, and then sap flows through them and supplies the top o f the tree. Eventual ly the scions grow together and form a new trunk over the girdled - part. When bridge-grafting la practiced It la desirable to head In the tree severel» to reduce the transpiration or evapor ation o f moisture from the top until sap Is carried through the bridge- grafts. If the girdle Is only p y t way round bridge-grafting may not be necessary as the wound will eventually heal over. In order to keep the wood of the girdled part from getting too dry and stopping the flow of snp In the tree, It Is desirable to cover the wound with grafting wax or some paste, such as made from sulphur, cow-dung and clay, over which sack ing or burlap may he wrapped. It Is a good plan to do this also even when bridge-grafting is done. Sometimes trees live for a year aft er complete girdling and then die as there Is not enough sap In the top or carried up to keep It alive, but It Is practically sure to die the second sea son unless It Is bridge-grafted. Should the girdle be near the ground, It Is de sirable, In addition to covering the In jured part with the paste referred to, to mound up the soli about the tree to cover the wound, and thus help to prevent the wood from drying out. The tree should he severely headed hack no matter what treatment Is given. and Black Raspberries Summer pinching o f blackberries and black raspberries should be startefi the middle o f June, advises J. H. Clark, instructor In fruit growing at the New Jersey College o f Agriculture, In New Brunswick. This type o f pruning consists o f pinching out the top of the growing cane when It has reached a height of 18 to 24 Inches. This will encourage the growth of side branches and In stead o f a long, slender, unhrnnched cane, a short, stocky stem will he pro- dneed with the bearing area scattered over several branches. If the canes are pinched as soon aa they reach the desired height, the work can be done with the thumb and Angers, since the growing tip Is soft and easily broken out. However, If the cane la allowed to grow until It Is much above this height. It will harden so that shears must be used. In such a case, the plant has wasted Its energy pro- dndng the section of cane which Is cut off. and often the laterals produced will not be as strong or as well dts- tribnted as where pinching Is done earlier. It Is usually not advisable to pinch the canes o f red raspberries, since It results in the production o f more nnd weaker canes, Instead of the desired laterals. b « botm odim , It’s bad weather that reveals a good seaman.

It la one of the cheapest o f the highly nitrogenous feeding staffs snd Is therefore econoro- icsl for balancing rations deficient In nitrogen. Owing to Its high con- tent o f protein the meal should be used with the same precautions aa are observed with other highly con centrated feeda Aa regard« digesti bility, soy beaa meal compares favor ably with other oU meals ~ 19 Alfalfa hay proved superior to an- dan hay as a feed for dairy cattle at the Hays (Kans.) experiment station In the third trial comparing the merits of the two feeds, according to the re- port given by Prof. J. B. Pitch at the annual Kansas roundup. This trial, conducted during the past year at the Hays station, gave results agreeing with those obtained In the drat trial when cows fed alfalfa hay. kafir silage and grain In proportion to milk production produced 13 per cent more milk each day than the same cows when Sudan hay was substituted for alfalfa hay. In the second trial, however, the cows fed suiian hay, kafir silage and a liberal grain ration produced slightly more milk each day than the same cows when alfalfa hay was substituted for the Sudan hay. Eight Holstein cows were used In the third trial. They averaged 573 pounds of milk and 21.5 pounds of but- terfat dally wulle fed alfulfa hay as compared with 511 pounds o f milk and 10.7 pounds of butterfat on Sudan hay. "Cows fed alfalfa hay, kafir silage, and a liberal grain ration, produced 8 per cent more milk and 10 per cent more butterfat than the same cows when fed Sudan hay,” said Professor Pitch In summarizing the results of the third experiment. “The body weights o f the cows were practically constant during the three periods. The alfalfa hay was consumed In larger amounts than was the Sudan hay. "In two o f the three feeding trials comparing alfalfa hay and Sudan for dairy cattle at the Hays station, al falfa has proved to be better than su- dan. In the trial where Sudan proved better thnn nlfa’ fa, the alfalfa hay was of Inferior quality. In all three trials the liberal grain ration and the relatively short feeding periods appar- ently have reduced the difference be tween alfalfa hay and Sudan hay. This statement is made ns the result of a large number of feeding trials with dairy cows comparing feeds similar to those used lu this experiment. Alfalfa hay and Sudan have practically the same amount o f digestible protein as has Sudan. The quality o f the protein In alfalfa Is also superior to that from ether hay crops and grains that have been compared experimentally to date. As a source of minerals for dairy cow s the legume hays, and especially alfalfa, are o f special Importance. To maintain milk production and body weight over n large period of time when on Sudan hay cows must be fed a grain ration containing a protein supplement. In regions where alfalfa cannot be grown and where It Is high In price It Is desirable to feed three or four pounds o f alfalfa dally to dairy cow s as an additional source of min erals and for the protein It contains." M l lt j r . 7 ,4 A L F A L F A H A Y BEST FOR D A IR Y CATTLE Cracked soy beans are equal or slightly superior to linseed ollmeal as a protein supplement for dairy cows. After three separate trials with this new feed, Investigators at the Iowa ex periment station have reached the above conclusion. Furthermore, they demonstrated that soy beans do not cause scours under the conditions existing in the experi ment. The basal ration consisted of corn silage, alfalfa hay, cracked corn and ground oats. Roughage was fed according to the capacity o f the cows and the grain mixture according to production. No tendency In the beans to become unpalatable over long feeding periods was observed so long as a dally allow ance of four pound« was not exceeded. When the price for soy bean seed gets lower and reasonably large acre ages are planted, soy beans can be ex tensively used. Soy bean ollmeal. which Is the prod uct left after oil extraction, was also tested at the Iowa station. Its value was found equal to that o f linseed oll meal. The relative prices o f the two feeds will determine which is the bet ter to buy. Planted with corn for silage, soy beans did not show any value, accord ing to the Iowa tests. Work done so far Indicates that com silage is o f practically the same value as corn-bean silage for the production o f milk ary! butterfat. The tonnage per acre showed an Increase of 5 69 per cent where the two crops were grown together, com pared with corn alone. The costs for seed and seeding largely offset the ad- vantage In tonnage, however, making straight com silage practically as eco nomical as com-bean silage. In the first trial the percentage of beans In the silage was about 3 and the second 25. No advantage was noted In the Increased percentage.
