A cured ' bundle of Kaffir stover, the size that [ the machine binds, will weigh about 7 lb. The same 6ized bundle of corn < ' stover will weigh about 6 lb. If the cow is given the right kind of grain, little more is necessary In feeding the roughage than to give her all she will eat, taking care that it is not so 1 fed that she can waste it. The following rations are given as a guides for the feeder, and by alter- .. ing them slightly to fit his individual Q | case and conditions the results obtained by them will prove the most tl economical. They have been figured ^ : with the idea of utilizing cottonseed ( and cottonseed meal as much as pos- E f sible.

K 01 As the effgpt of climatic conditions Rl on spraying in general is so little understood, and as a great many fruit growers try to spray in the win- ft ter months when the work is slack, a word of caution at this time will not j1; be out of place. p Spraying for scale may be done any i time after the leaves drop in the fall until they begin to open in the spring, providing the weather is not P< too cold and the material can dry on h< the trees before freezing. Many peo- pi ule, however, suppose this can be se | done when water on the ground does not freeze. This is a mistake, for fc rapid radiation on a clear day may sc force the temperature of the woolly hi fruit-bud down six or eight degrees 01 ' below freezing point; so it is really m unsafe to Spray fruit trees, especially Tl 1 peach, when the temperature is 40 d< 1 degrees Fahrenheit, no matter what so ' the material used may be. I believe hi that in every instance where I have tb ? .. u.v uuu injury II uaS been found that the spraying was at i done in very cold weather. 01 The following clipping was taken at I from Green's Fruit Grower: I at I "The freezing of the leaves and ! so I buds on clear spring nlghtB when the ar ' air temperature is above freezing m 1 point ha3 been superstltiously looked ca i upon as an effect of the moon's lieht ' co UBEfUL 10 KNOW AB< | Save the pieces of broken window- pe j panes, take to a glass-cutter and hove pa i him eat them down to oover little mi i picture# and photos.

Here is a plan for draining a cls;rn; is by the siphon principle, and > i very quick and easy when under-1 :ood. It can be used in any yard j lat has sewerage and an outside slop j ink. The way to start the flow is j ) take a rubber hose, fill with water, j ius exhausting the air out of it; then ! bile one person drops the lower end ! lto the vault, another person insert? \c./' 1 ie intaking end into a full bucket f water and quickly lowers bucket nd all into the cistern. The only ling else necessary is to have the utlet of the hose lower than the init. The flow thus started will connue until the cistern is entirely rained.

Virginia, and in fact most of the tates along the Blue Ridge Mounting have, of recent years, taken 'onderful strides in fruit growing. Tint growing in those regions, how- I rer, is only slightly developed in j amparison with the possibilities I h1ch exist in this direction. The lethods of orchard management are ammonly faulty and not productive f the best results which the natural ^vantages make possible. NotwitliLanding these conditions, large uantities of excellent fruit, but prinipally apples, are grown in some porons of these reigons. Realizing the problem that many rchardists will find confronting lem, the Department of Agriculture as published a bulletin entitled Orchard Fruits in the Piedmont and lue Ridge Regions of Virginia and le South Atlantic States," and while le information supplied therein will oubtless prove of value to prospecve planters of orchards, who alaady reside in these regions, it is xpected that Lts greatest usefulness ill be to those who are unfamiliar ith the conditions, but who may be ttracted to these sections by the oportunities which they offer for fruit rowing. The hints are also applicale to other sections made up of hill ad valley and where soil and other atural conditions may bo similar. There appears to be no doubt but Hit the success of fruit growing in le Blue Ridge Mountains is due in rent part to the fact that the rchards are planted on the sheltered de of the numerous knob3, which at the chain from end to end, and ius in a measure protect the trees om winter killing or hold back the ads until all danger of spring frost? is passed.?G.
