Friesian iia<Who,«e,a Breeders' l M>
association somewhat
divided advice was given. Professor
Johnson of the Michigan Agricultural
college urged breeders to pay particular
attention to the dairy points of their
in saying that the Holstein cow was spe¬
cially designed by nature to servo as a
dairy machine, and that every energy of
the breeder should be devoted to the
task of Improving the ability to' make
milk and butter. Professor Morrow, on
the other hand, seemed to think that the
Holstein-Friesian might proiltably apply
for the position of ‘'general purpose”
cow, and he therefore urged breeders
not to neglect the beef points while they
NO. 1—TYPICAL DAIRY HOLSTEIN.
various, sections of the country
give their opinions on the subject. These
opinions as expreseed in. The Sural Hew
Yorker were agreed on one point, namely,
that the Holstein-Friesian is emphati¬
cally a dairy cow, although her beef at¬
tributes are non-sufficient to make her a
good all purpose cow.
NO. 2—TYPICAL “GENERAL, PURPOSE"
HOLSTEIN.
Messrs. Smith, Powers & Lamb, (ton¬
ers in of Lady Fay, whose picture is givqb
the first cut, and who is accepted at
about the highest type of the dairy Hol¬
stein, said: “The dairy qualities (those
concerned in the production of milk and
butter) are of paramount Importance,
and should never be sacrificed In order
to secure better beef points; but at the
same time we do not believe it is neces¬
sary to breed entirely away from beef
qualities In order to retain or even to im¬
prove the essential dairy qualities. We
believe in breeding for butter and
first, last and all the time, and
these qualities developed in alt the ,___
degree, we wish to retain the beef
points possible.” j
A Colorado breeder writes: “The ma¬
jority at people In this state want I
Holstein-Friesian to he an all
Ww aim breed and .
cow. to raise „
large, well developed stock, but in so do¬
ing we do not neglect toe milking quali¬
ties, as we breed to the finest and best
milk and butter animals we can get. We
believe that if breeding for beef quali¬
ties were entirely given up, and no atten¬
tion were given to breeding for large,
well formed bodies, the Holstein-Frie
sians would become in a number of years
small, ill formed animals such as the
Jerseys.”
F. C. Stephens, owner of Bhoda, toe
general purpose cow, shown in the sec¬
ond cut, says: My advice is to breed so
as to perpetuate the breed as they now
are (taking as a standard the highest and
best type); for we have in them a com¬
bination of qualities found in no other
breed, and this and this only Is what
makes them better than any other known
breed. It is their size that makes them
so much more desirable than Ayrshires
or Jerseys, and their milking qualities
that recommend them to all farmers
over the Shorthorn. The successful
breeder of Holstein-Friesians is he who
produces 1,600 pounds, a cow which weighing will give from 1,400 times to
ten
her weight in milk each year.
A Massachusetts breeder thinks that
this question, like all others, has two
sides and while in the west it does, with¬
out doubt, pay to raise beef, he doubts
very much if it can be profitably done in
New England. Therefore he believes It
wise for New England men to give their
attention to breeding first for milk and
butter, and Incidentally to producing an
animal that wdl ultimately bring a fair
figure Rhoda, at tha shm shown bl ock in . the second
cut, is a
typical milk and beef animal. She has
always been a great milker, having a
year’s record of 21,809 pounds, and a but¬
ter record of twenty-three pounds In
seven days. She is now nearly 14 years
old and has ceased to breed. The great¬
est weight she has over attained was
8,080 pounds. "
Best Preventive at Potato Hot.
The following formula, aooording to
The New York State Botanist, is the
best known preventive of potato rot:
Dissolve four pounds of sulphate of cop¬
per in sixteen gallons of water; in
Another vessel Make four pounds of
lima in six gallons of water. When
the latter solution is cool pour pour it it into into
the copper solution, stir thoroughly,
apply to the potato plants its when in
bloom, or in this latitude about toe
middle of July, spraying the tops of it
by means of a spraying apparatus, but so aa
to moisten them thoroughly, not
drench them. If the weather should be
rainy and thus favorable to the fungus,
repeat the application in ten or twelve

well Tho *fHiSwsmff relative importance of the .1 trees
and shrubs of this country as compared
with those of Europe is surprising.
Great Britain has one species of*bass-
wood, high; one one as arc tus
two
poplars, one beach, large but not high ,
one small white bfrch, one species of
pine, inferior to our white pine, and a
species of oak which sometimos grows
to a great size. About soil ten species of
trees are natives of her Michigan,
with half the territory, has seventy spe¬
cies. Great Britain has no white wood,
tree size, a basswood, a white wood,
honey locust, Kentucky coffee tree, two
cherry, a pepperidge,five species of ash,
a mulberry, sassafras, three elm, a hackberry, a
a buttonwood, black walnut,
butternut, six hickory, about twelve oak,
A chestnut, a beach, lour tree birch, four
willow of tree size, six poplar, three pine,
four spruce, one laroh, one arbor vitas
and a red cedar.
In the Atlantic region of North Amer¬
ica there are 293 species; in the Paoifio
region 158 species. In all Europe there
has caused this great disparity? Scien¬
tists explain It to theteowu utisfeetioft
back in their tertiary period the trees of
the regions now possessing an Arotio
climate were such as nour thrive in a
warm, temperate zone like that of
Georgia and California, Then came
the glacial epoch, whensnow sud ice for
most or all of the year extended to the
Ohio river. At tile approach of oold the
trees slowly retreated southward as gen¬
eration followed generation. As this
climate again and gradually gradually grew grew slowly warmer ml-
the trees other plants
grated northward.
In a similar duriug the glacial
epoch the plants of Europe urope Jvere _ were driven driven
southward. Europe, says Dr, Gray in
The American Journal of Science, is all
within the limits generally assigned plants' to
severe glacial action. Mostof the
of the warm , temperate region had per¬
ished, and therefore continent were unable to re¬
treat when the became warm¬
er. “So our lines have been cast ip
pleasant places, and the goodly heritage
of forest trees is one of the conse¬
quences. ” j
A Good Farm Goto.
The gate shown in the accompanying
illustration is, according to Ohio Farmer,
one that will not sag.
A GATE THAT WILL NOT SAG.
This gate is the made in the ordinary way,
except that post extends up three
feet to a large staple, used for the upper
hinge. The lower part of this post Ban
iron rod resting in a socket. A heavy
galvanized wire runs from the top of the
front post of the gate to the top of the
rear post aa a brace, and a one-fourth
inch rod runs from the top of the gate
post back Into the ground at A, where it
u attached to a broad block. This block
is securely fastened in the ground with
stones and tamped clay, so that it will
not be yield any. sunk below A heavy, flat reach stone of would plow

Will never sag, says the authority quoted.
What Others Say.
Peter Henderson thinks every farmer
should liave a few acres of root crops on
his farm and he will find them hi valua¬
ble .for feeding stock daring the winter.
Not half enough is attempted in toe
way of ornamental gardening with fruit,
says a Country Gentleman utilitarian correspond¬
ent. With the strictest man¬
agement few things inthe country land¬
scape are prettier than the blossoming
or fruiting orchards, and a little taste
and skill in arrangement will make the
fruits a decided adjunct of the pleasure
grounds.
To exterminate .raspberry hushes in
pastures American Cultivator advises to
cut with bush scythe and then stock the
pasture with cattle to browse the sprouts.'
It affirms, also, that neat cattle are much
better bushes, than and that sheep for wooled exterminating
coarse varieties
of the latter will do more towards that
object than those of finer grade.
Persons owning bees end not located
near streams of water are advised by
Massachusetts Ploughman to furnish
them which fresh water daily, as it will save
time, to the bee means honey and
to the person means money.
There continues to be an increase in
the breadth of oats fully equal to the ad¬
vance in population.
A Might reduction in the area of oot-j 1
ton is indicated on toe Atlantic coast
and an Increase west of the state of Ala¬
bama. Conditions of the crop are
tively low owing to late frosts; lowest'
In South Carolina, highest in Texas.
