Studr the Cows. Dairymen should constantly bear in mind that the value of a dairy cow consists in the ability to consume food at a profit, or, in other words, her abihity to convert food into milk in a manner that will leave a profit to her owner. Unless you weigh and test each cow's milk and keep yourself pasted on just what she is doing, you can never know if she is prontable for you to keep. Because one cow will give woreuilk or will make more batter thai another is no reason that she is the best and inost profitable of the two, for she may be consuming over and above the o her cow more than enough food to vffset the difference in her production. It is also true that small eaters are not necessarily the profitable oneo; in iact, it is generally just the upposite; large eaters, large producers. It re wains only for you to study your cows and become acquainted with iheir in -:ividualities and wants, and in so do .ing you will be able to jude of their value in your dairy, putting . %ou in a position to discard the uuprdtuble vues.-Pacific Coast Dairymau. Separate Quarter. For Mr. Whenever a barn has a iarn base ment, as all should have, in that should be fixed the winter quarters for the hogs. As there isa strong dis agreeable smell fiom the pigpen. the basement should not be where other stock is kept, and of course not near lhe house. Not only hurses and sheep, which are dainty in their feed ing, but even the cow, whieh is less *Xected by foul odors, will rvfis to eat food ihat has been where the stench from the hogpen could get at it. Yet we have known farmers to al low hogs to run in the same stable vith cattle and horses, and then won der why the latter so ofteu get "off their feed," and lose flesh. The hog alone will thrive under sui circum Ptances, though even the hog in its effort to keep warm will cr.wd close around the larger animals to gather a heat from their bodies. In this way the hog is apt to be stepped upon or kioked, so that the practice is not best even for him. The pigs' winter quar t-ers 'should be made warm. and also light, having a wall on the sts6h side with large double wind6ws is it through which the winter sunlight may stream. If all the other sides are walled tight, and a bunch of chopped straw is put in one corner, the pigs will make their nest in that and sleep at night, but in sunny days they will huddle together where thi sunlight can fall upon them. This matter of nunlight has much to do with the .healthfulness of breeding: sows and the successful rearing of their litters, eseilythose farrowed in est~y Tetof Comerei,a3 Ferrilizers. Bulletin No. 1 -fromi the New York Agrienituralfi>eriment- Station (Ge neva) giv,er the results of analysis of commesidl fertilizers for the spring of 1,8f. There were collected from ~erent parts of the State 1183 sam pies of commercial fertilizers. repre senting 739 different brands. Of these brands 578 were complete fertilizers, and contained nitrogen varying from 12 to 8.21 per cent. available phos. phoric acid in amouts varying from 3.09 to 14.2$ per cent., and potash v.trying from .22 to 15.22 per cent. Of the 578 different brands of comg plete fertilizers collected 397 were be. los the manufact'rers' guarantee, in ":e or more constituents, in amounts ,varying fromt .01. to 4.48 per cent. 'The amount of nitrogen was belowv the i.anufacturers' guarantee in 168 bra nds in amounts varying from .)1 to 1.6t p'r cent., and averaging .21 per cent. The amount of available ph:'smoric aMwas below the manu'n:.turers' guarantee in S9 brands, the dti~~iency varying from .01 to 2.13 per cent.. and averaging .43 per cent. Tihe ainount *>i potash wa-s below tha guarantee of s.e maniufactur-es in 140 brands, the delleieucy varying fr om .01 to 4.48 per ce-nt., and averaging .5 per- cent.

I believe that tUor ough culture is the only satisiactory treatment, as it not only makes plant food available, but is the best con servator of moisture. The o.rchardist 2nnst select a location and soil adapted to the fruits he wishes to gro* and put this in best condition before set ting, by thoro.ugh plowing and lining. To obtain best resulte, orchards need both moisture and fertilizers but more often moisture. As the. heaviest rainfall usrually oceners skaj, it is at least neede1. .-eryv etterL +y-ould be made to pre-m*t it for- tatiire u-.

Weeds should Lever be al lowed to become established. Stir the whole surface of the orchard thor oughly about three inches deep every two weeks. The dryer the season the oftener stirring should take place. Plowing for the first few years will tend to send the roots deeper, where they will escape injury i' time of drouth. The whole surface of the orchard should ba tilled. A careful man can plow within two feet of the trees and not injure them. If catch crops are grown in the orchards, plow them under early, so that they will decay as quickly as pos sible. The chief value of these crops is for fall and winter protection ind not spring growth. Old orchard trees stop growing before midsummer. Vigorous tillage from then on can cease so that new growth will ripen sufficiently to withstand cold weather. Fall plowing caunot be recommended for clay soils, as these will puddle and become lard and stiff. Hoed crops can be grown to advantage in young orchards, but even these should not be planted close to the trees, and the distances shouldbecome greater every Tear. After six or eiglt years all vigorous cropping should cease. S. A. Porter. i Orange ynda Farmer. A Double Sarn With Much Loft Room. The accompanying illastration shows a plan for a barn with double driveways in which the distingaishing A LAEGE AND rsEFUL BA'. feature is the great amount of loft room. Four gables added to the main roof space give almost another story's capacity to the barn, making it possible to use nearly the whole of the lower floor for stock. With a silo and the root cellar that will be found in the basement it will be poss'ble to carry a large stock of the :odder that can be stored beneath the roofs. There are many conveniences about a double barn, and when one is to be built the form here given wiil prove an e:Wellent one to follow.-New England Farmer. Two Great Aricultural Pesta. The two greatest insect pests known to the American farmer,.have been re ceiving the careful attention of the Division of Entomology of the United States Department of Ag-iculture for a long time. These are tie chinch bug and the Hessian fly. T'ie department has prepared and is ab..ut to publish two bulletins treating- respectively of the two insects and- suggesting pos'si ble remedies for checking them. IThe bulletin on the chinch bug is en titled "The Chinch Bug; its probable origin and diffasion, itsihabits and de vlopment. natural modes and remedial and preventive measures, with men tion of the habits of allied European species." The bulletin w.as prepared under the direction of the entomolo gist of the department, -by F. M. Webster, entomologist of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station. The Agricultural Department has received many requests for information about the chinch bug, and the bulletin is in tended to meet this demand. It gives many new facts concerning the life, history and distribution of the species, and the whole subject of the practical handling of its diseases, in order to assist in its destruction, is treated at length. It says that few inserts have caused such pecuniary losses, ard that no other insect native to the Western Hemisphere has spreadl its devastating hordes over a wider area of country with more fatal effect to the staple grains5 of North A:nerica. It is widely distributed over the world and biber naes in thie adult stage. It is of gre garious h' bits and:.nigrates in spring, summer and autun. Whien and whcee it layvs its eggs, the periodl of incuba tion, thae diecrcnt stages of develop ut, the development andi habits of its young, annual generations and:food pant.s, are coverediby the bulletin. In aditon it:rats of the 'influence of precipitation and temperature on the insect; its natural enemies. remeaml and preventive measures and describes the t~rue and false chinch bugs. The bulletin says that it would ap pear that this pest first made its pres ence known in this country in North Caroinain 1783, and mentions several serious outbreaks of the bug in the West. The estimated losses from its ravages from 1850 to 1887reach $267, 000,000. It also says that it is be lieved that the losses up to 1898 amounted to fully $330,000,000. The hulletin contains nineteen illustra tions, including maps, showing areas infested by the chinch bug, and the probable course of its diffusion over North Amecrica. The other bulletin is entitled simply "The Hessian Fiy in the United States." It was prepared under the diection of the department's entomo logist by Herbert Osborn, Professor of Zooogy and Entomsology at the Agri enlturai College of Ames. Iowa, and cotans many facts concerning the life isory. food habits and parasitic ene mies of this farm pest. Tb s bulletin as that the Hessian fly probably ranks next to the chinch bug; as a farm pest in the United States, and that its ravages in other countries have long been known. It received its name in the belief that it had been introdnced into this country by the Hessian sol dirs durng the war of the Revoln tOL. - An acconnt of its original habitat, its veryv wide distribution throughout t e wheat-growing regions of Europe ud America, and its~ means of distri iution are given in the bulletin. with .i:eriptious of 'he male and female in .sets. the eggs.~ the larval forms and elpment. food plants, natural ene ies and rem?edies.

(.k. p~--~ roduce up to the age GOOD ROADS NOTES, . Waste From Deficient Care. The best roads are sometimes s0 verely injured by vary heavy storms, but, as a rule, they do not suffer nearly as much as either roads which are neglected or those which are "worked" in the old-fashioned way. It is practically impossible to prevent all injury in case of storms of extraor dinary severity, but proper precau tions will reduce the danger to a minimum. There are, however, many miles of stone roads in this country which are not fitted to resist heavy rainfalls be cause (1) the surfaces are allowed to get rutty and to retain dcpressions which will hold water; (2) they are left flat, or very nearly so, and have insufficient crown to shed water; (3) grass and weeds are allowed to grow along their edges until water cannot run off freely, and the side ditches are not kept clean and open, and (4) iu places the earth at the sides is higher than the road-bed and turns the water upon it. These defects are iaainly due to the impressio' that a stone roal once laid needs no attention for a year or two, and after that only an annual looking over and perhaps a scraping and a few repairs. The result is that the roads deteriorate very rapidiy and are as good as they could and should be only for a few months when new. This method is neither practical nor economical; it does not keep roads in good shape, and it costs much more in the end. Proper road mainte nance is as important as correct con struction; we cannot do better than profit by the experience of European countries and follow in principle if not in detail, the ihorough system of con stant care and repair that has been so highly developed in France.-L. A. W. Bulletin. To Convert the Feinmers. A shrewd, League member has a scheme which.he thinks is great for the purpose of wifning over the farm ers who oppose road improvement, first, because they do not like to be taxed, and, secondly, because they dislike "them sickle fellere." There is novelty in his idea, an], provided the expense could be borne and the proper labor devoted to working it out, it would probably be a success. The plan is to find a few farmers in every township who live on the roads which need rebuilding and present to each of them a bicycle on condition of their learning to ride and thou attend ing to their instruction. Understand ing the enthusiasm that the wheel be gets, the schemer argues that the few farmers will first learn how poor their roads are, then become good roads converts, and finally convert their neighbors,who~are oppositionists. The argument seems to be a sonnd one so far as the likelihood of the few becomn ing converts is concerned and also with regard to the probability of their mau ing converts, but the cost, even if it was 'attempted .on .a limited scale, makes it prohibitive, unless, indeed, some of the mianufacturers, whose business it would greatly increase, co".ld be induced to co-operate. The scheme has not been formally pre sented to the League officers and there fore is not taken seriously.-New York Sun. Propose:t Calirornia Laws. The next California legislature will have to consider several bills looking toward road improvement in that State. One of them -proposes to classify the roads:" as State-highways. county thoroughfares and district-roads. T wenty-eight p;rincipal roads are enu merated to comprise the first-c!ass; the most important roads in ech county will bo set apart to form the second-class and the remaining roads to constitute the third-ciaas. Another bill provides that whe:n five mies or more of highway of the first class shall have been properly c-on structed in any county, the State shall accept andmaintain it and that $100, 000O shall be appropriated for such nrpose.s for 18W1-1900 and the neces sary sums thereafter. Existing lan-s aec to be amended to L.rrange for the State to take possession of roads de clared to be State-highways, ant for the expenditure of half of the annual road tax in constructing and maintain ing permanent roads. & American Roads Are Improvin.. America is a country of poor .roads, and those working for highway ref orm are la'ooring in a wise ,mnd justecause,. but it is worth noting what great pro gess has already been made. Abjnt ten years ago it was emphatically as serted in England that the -bicycle could never become popular here ~e cause the roads were so poor. To-day America is the greatest cycling coun try in the world, and there has been more advance in road improvement dring the last decade than in any previous twenty years. -Baltiagore News. i Itemsa For Crusaders. - The bad road's name is "mnd."

A Narrow Escape. In his book, "The Crimea of 1854," Sir Evelyn Wood, V.

As he passed over the parapet with his rifle at the trail, I caught it by the small of the butt to pull myself up. He turned round an grily, asking, 'What are you doing? And while his face was bent on mine, a roundshot, passing my ear, strucli him full between the shoulders, and I stepped over his body, so exhau;sted as to he strangely Indifferent to the pros eration of my own life, saved by the soldier having .iostled me out of ml turn at the gan"' MRS.

The walnut does not injure the growing crep, and is of commerc:a! value. and after the :imuber becomes large.~ It is worth co'usiderable mo:ney. It wi not only pa~y the farmer financi ly to plant the trees on the road wys, but it will hel p in m;aking cur section of the Southlaud very beauti ful, it will pay tho farmer to plaunt the walnut thronghout his forest or old worn fields. He can plant att least iit walnut trees to the acre. At the a'ge of ten years the walnut trees would be worth fifty cents a piece. ina other. words iho ground that had wal nut trees on it ten years old would cell fur..i an ace on account of the wainut timuber. In twenty years the land will be worth ten times its present value. ia put ting out walnut trees you are not put-. ting out something that is going to in crease the taxab)le value of your l andi, and it costs you comparam.tively n;oth ing to do this work. You can gather thu walnuts for planting without cost, and one persou caui put out at least five acres a day, and they can go over fve miles of road a day planting the~ walnut every twenty feet apart, ali you have to do is t.o make a small hole, three to four inches deep, with pointed stick and drop walntut in, covering with a little dirt.
