5 POINTS OF II DAIliT COW

The five points to be observed It selecting a good dairy cow was ttu subject of a recent address made b> O. C. Gregg at the St. John's Farmers institute. 1st. Large body and especially middle piece, Indicating a capacity lot eating and digesting a lot of food L'nd. Thinly fleshed backbone am especially back of the shoulders This indicates that the food is not made Into flesh. 3rd Large udder, as it Is here that the milk Is made 4th. Large milk wells It h through these that the blood return, to the heart from the udder. If they are large It Indicates that u largt Amount of blood passes through tin udder. Bth Large clear eyes. This in dicates good nerves, and they drive ttu organs of digestion and milk making He said that a sixth point could bt added—the scales and the Babcocl c«St.

Prince of Schwartzburg-Rudolstadt In Financial Straits. The Prince of Schwartzburg-Rudol-stadt rules over a country 363 square miles in extent, with a population oi about 90.000. For doing this his faithiui subjects give him a civil list ot $07,000 a year. The prince is a granu seigneur in his way, with expensive habits. He owns several castles well stocked with servants, and in the grand old mediaeval way he supports a body of musicians who play to him when be is at his meals Tbe Prince got into financial dittlculties because the necessities ot me are getting dearer. The Prince caned his Minister of State the other day and told him there was not much pleasure in being a ruler nowadays. “Look at the price of beef and mutton!" he exclaimed. "My cooks want bigger wages, so do the laundry maids. Just look at what clothes cost, especially uniforms, and I must have ten uniforms at least! ' So Baron von der Recke. the Minister, convoked the Diet of the Principality, and the people’s representatives appeared, among Uieiu, however, eight Social Democrats . The Minister made a pathetic statement about tf e Prince being a good man in trouble and asked for an additional annual sum of $S’,0t)0 to help him out. The debate that ensued was one ot finest in the annals of German Parliaments. The Socialists wanted to know about the brass band, what it was tor and what it cost. They had heard of curious officials up in those castles i ailed ushers and chamberlains. What were they for? They turned the Prince's household accounts inside o it, and finally declared they would not grant a penny more, and that if Ine Prince could not live on $67,000 a year there were eight Socialist subjects ot his who were willing to take his place and do his work for half the money. The Prince was furious and dissolved the Diet, and over the peaceful principality now rages a constitutional struggle unequalled in bitterness.

Making of Hailstones. If one would know how a hailstone is formed he must first dissect It. He will find that it is composed of a quantity of tiny crystals arranged in concentric rings or zones, and each zone in turn will have its evidence to give concerning the making of the hailstone on its way to the earth. An atom of dust is the nucleus ot each hailstone The atoms of dust pervade every part of the atmosphere and are found not only in the lower strata of the air, but the winds carry them to the tops of the highest mountains. So that, no matter whether samples of air are obtained by balloonists or mountain climbers, minute particles of dust are always to be found In them It is coming to be believed that without these atoms of dust upon which the moisture of the air can settle there would be no raindrops no fog, no snow, dew, clouds or hail Without tljese minute platforms, as they are called, upon which the moisture condenses as it alights, rain would be continually pouring down upon the earth These motes keep tne atmosphere buoyed up till such times as circumstances compel them to yield up the supplies they have eolected. it a little vapor should happen to condense on a particle ut oust floating aimlessly about in tbe air tflere is the beginning of whal, under favorable circumstances, will become a full sized hailstone. The hailstones tef attain great size must plunge to the earth from a great height. The clouds which float ai the greatest distance from the earth are those known as the cirrus, and ate often many miles above the tops oi the highest mountains. If tbe begin ning of a hailstorm can only dive to the earth from this height it will, in its headlong flight, pass through strata of air differing very much as regards temperature and moisture, and these are circumstances most favorable to its development. But before it can begin its descent it must find some way of being carried up to these heights. So the journey is made by getting into the way of one of the strong ascensional currents which spring upward from almost every pari of the earth's surface In such a place it is not long before the moisture on the atom of dust freezes The form which the frozen moisture takes depends upon circumstances, but there are many possibilities before it. It may crystallize as a tiny pellet of snow, or may take the shape of an ice crystal or simply the form of a frozen crystal or the form of a frozen raindrop. Any ot these shapes will serve as an excellent beginning for a further change. It is easily understood that tne force of gravitation has been constantly pulling this atom of dust and its congealed moisture toward the ground. As it starts on its journey back to the earili it will pass through strata of air which differ gieatly in moisture and temperature. Some ot the air will be above the freezing point and other layers will be below it, while it will be no uncommon thing for the hailstone to dash through a cloud some thousands of feet thick. The hailstone itself, with its heart of ice, is always below the freezing point, so that any moisture which settles upon it is promptly frozen and forms a girdle of ice about the nucleus. When the hailstone passes through the air that is below the freezing Av.* the moisture settles upon it in ne form of a dear zone of ice, while the other hand, when the air is tened and Its moisture Is above tpua-ir... rvoint. uie girdle of ice is

Cherry Tree Diseases

Leaf spot and Mildew—the first named disease Is caused by what is called "Shot-hole Fungus" and may be successfully prevented by the use a) Bordeaux mixture, except that only half the strength of the mixture may be applied with safety to the foliage ot the cherry. The mildew is usually found chiefly upon sprouts and young shoots. If spraying is required for mildew, two applications will probably he very satisfactory. Leaf-spot symptoms are everywhere abundant and are really of very diverse origin. In any example in which the leaf tissues are locally invaded by a parasitic fungus we may expect evident effects. In the downy mildew troubles there may be wetrot symptoms when the weather is moist, after the leavee have become badly diseased they may appear to Uie very suddenly because the gradual invasion of the areas has been overlooked. in many other leaf diseases no such rapid multiplication or reproduction of the parasite is possible and limited dead patches or spots are the result.

Leaf of cherry attacked by leafspot fungus. The dead areas in cherry leave* turn dry and rarely give shothole effects. These leaf troubles are commonly very evident during rainy seasons and are preventable by spraying t e foliage of the diseased plants at repeated Intervals, thus keeping a supply of the fungicide on the leaves to arrest renewed spore development. Cherry rot, or brown-rot, affects all stone fruit, Including peach, apricots, etc. It is by far the most serious

ESCAPED WITH HTS LIFE. "Twenty-one yean* ago I faced an awful death,’’ writes H. B. Martin, Port Harrelston, S. C. “Doctors said I had consumption and the dreadful tuugh I had looked like it, sure enough I tried everything, I could hear of, for my cough, and was under the treatment of the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C., for a year, but could get no relief. A friend advised me to try Dr. King New Discovery.

Cherries, sound and rotted. The parasits In this case is the same as on other stone fruits. and baffling of cherry diseases to the commercial cherry grower. The decay of the fruit is caused by this fungus. The conditions of the season may favor or retard the spread and development of the disease. The threads of the fungus survive In Lie rotted fruits, which may hang on the trees unless removed. Careful removal of all rotted fruit and spraying for the fungus, as per the calendar, bay be relied upon to save a part of the fruit, but Judgement and attention to the details of the work are always required. It Is to be understood, ak-o, that checking the curculio is a sure means of helping to check rot.

Although one of the coarser vegetables, cabbage finds a place in the home garden as well as in the market garden and the truck farm, and in some sections of the United States it is extensively grown as a farm crop. No adequate estimate, however, can be placed on the value of this crop, as it fluctuates very decldely from year to year both in acreage and price; but the output Is large—the three states of New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia, which outrank all the others, grow commercially about 50,000 acres of this vegetable, either as a spring or autumn crop, In addition to the homegarden supply which was consumed at home. Early cabbage le practically all consumed as a green vegetable; ti*e late crop on the other hand. Is bandied as a fresh vegetable, as a storage crop, and for tbe manufacture of saner kraut. Cabbage is always In demand, and under, present conditions, is always on the market either In the spring as the product of the southern farms, in the fall and early winter from the northern form and market garden, or In the winter from the storage house where the surplus has been preserved for this demand.

A GOOD RATION FOR NORTHERN STATES.

A balance food Is one that contains the food nutrients in the proper proportions for building muscle, for pro duclng fat, and for keep up tne animal's heat. Corn has not enough of the flesh 'building nutrients to properly nourish an animal If fed alone. Alfalfa and clover hay have too much of the flesh making nutrients. Feeding the corn and alfalfa, or corn and clover gives a balanced food. Twelve pounds of alfalfa, eigiit pounds ground corn, and whatever corn stover the animal wants, makes a good daily ration.

CASTOR IA For Inianti and Children, The Kind Yqij Have Always Bought

All the coloules should be carefully examined. If any colonies have* died during the winter remove the combs of honey that remain and place them under some other strong colony before robbing begins. If any colonies have become queenless others can be procured from the south and substituted. Do not let the colony dwindle away for want of a queen for It may yield you fifty or even a hundred pounds of honey the coming season. The bottom boards should also be scraped and cleaned from tbe accumulated cappings which always gather there during the winter. On top of the hive you will proDably find ants gathered In tile packing with thousands of eggs ready to hatch. Clean them out and sweeten up the hives in general. It may be that some need a coat of paint. Get ready for the honey flow and give the bees every chance to build up. Sectiou boxes brood frames should also be gotten In readiness, ft Is easy to manage bees when the preparatory work is done. It will do no harm to let the Dees get a little corn meal from the bin. Some beekeepers make a regular practice In early spring of setting meal in sunny spots protected from the wind for the bees to gather as a substitute for pollen to stimulate brood rearing. This is not necessary in locations where natural pollen Is abundant. When brooding is heaviest bees require most water. In spring they may be seen about tbe well in search of this necessary article, which goes to make up their daily bill of fare. They will fly a great distance for it if not obtainable near by. Many bees are lost and chilled when thus carrying water for their brood. If there is no water accessible near at hand it will pay you to supply some. Take a barrel and set It a few feet from the ground, fill It with water and cover the top so no bees will drown. Then bore a very small hole near the bottom of the barrel and let the water drip on a board. The board should be slanted slightly to cause the water to flow slowly along. From tins source the bees will be able to help themselves. The nearer the water is to the apiary the fewer bees it will require a* water carries, a very important feature at this season when the warmth and energy of every bee is needed in the hive to help build up the colony When honey begins to come iu from the fields, it Is no longer necessary to supply them with water for they will get enough of It from the thin nectar which is dally brought Into the hive. The best time to transfer combs ami bees is when the combe are light'and free from the honey. Brood-rearing is but fairly sUrted, consequently the work is quickly aceoinplisfied without the loss of brood and a dauby mess of wasting honey, as is the case when combs become filled with new honey and brood-rearing Is In an advance stage. 1 find that even in New Jersey that conditions differ so widely that no set of laws can be laid down for all localities. 1 would, however, make this suggestion, that wherever early blooming trees are present such as soft maples, or elms, It will not be necessary to feed meal for when It becomes warm enough for the bees to fly freely these trees will be found to yield pollen In i bundance. 1 would set the combs from which the bees have died during the winter In an empty hive body and place them under a strong colony and close up all the openings except the entrance under the lower body, compelling the bees to pasts over the unoccupied combs continually when leaving or entering the hive. In this way the combs will be kept free from the wax moth until such a time when they can be used for swarms or other purposes When the queen gets crowded for space In the upper body she will go down and commence laying eggs In the empty combs below Thetse combs of hatching brood can be used to great advantage In building up weak colonies The wide-awake farmer does not wait until his bees have swarmed and are clustering on a tree-top before be thinks of preparing a hive for them. All preparatory work, such as making and painting hives, wiring brood frames and getting the section boxes ready for the anticipated honey crop should be done at leisure times during the dull period on the farm before the rush or other work takes place. How easy It will be to manage a dozen or more colonies of bees this summer If everything Is set in readiness. For Instance, if a swarm Issues it will only be the work of a few minutes to take the hive from the barn and hive the swarm Into It. If the honey flow bursts forth suddenly what satisfaction it will give you to know that you have on hand a tew hundred section boxes ready to set on the hives at once. If this work is put off until summer time it Is more than probable It wlU not be done at all. When feeding tue bees be careful not to spill any of tbe sweets about the apiary, for robbing Is often started that way.
