DIFFICULTY TN MACHINE MILKING.
The difficulty with all attempts to
milk by machine power is that the at
tempt is made to imitate the sucking
of a calf. The motion of the hand in
milking is very different, and it cannof
well be reproduced in any machine.
Gows allowed to suckle their calves
quickly go dry. The whole secret of
modern dairy success is in prolonging
the natural flow of milk much beyond
vrLnt would be the fact if the calf did
the milking.—[Courier-Journal.
DRESSING DUCKS FOR MARKET.
Growers of ducks as well as house
keeper? will be interested in tho fol
lowing from two correspondents of
tho Cackler:
A ou ask for an easy way to dress
clucks. Immerse in scalding wafer and
shake well into the feathers; remove
and wrap in a flannel cloth so the steam
cannot escape; let it lay about ten
minutes, and you can remove the down
with the leathers.
My method of dressing is to pick
the feathers dry, then immerse the
duck in hot water and roll in blanket
for live or ten minutes, when the down
will come off nicely.
now TO CONTROL THE FLOCK.
Upon the ordinary farm, 6aya the
Germantown Telegraph, where sheep
are kept, but in limited numbers and
without shepherd, it is of considerable
importance to be able to control the
flock. This is very successfully done
by taking a ewe lamb and bringing it
U P b >’ bancb Always exercise kind
ness toward it, give it a name and
teach it to come at the call of ifs name
by giving it a few kernels of grain of
some kind or some food that it is par
ticularly fond of. When grown turn
it with ihe flock, and when they are
wanted a call of the cosset by name
will bring it, and the rest of the flock
will follow. This is a peculiarity of
sheep; when one starts all the rest
will follow, no matter in what direc
tion they go, so if one is taught to
come at call the others will follow,
and this 6aves the trouble of trying to
teach the entire flock, and will be the
means of saving many steps.
WOMEN IN THE APIABT.
At the recent convention of Ohio
bce-kcepers the question of women’s
help in apiaries was discussed. The
gist of the opinions expressed are here
given. Dr. Mason would rather not
have the Avomeu around, while F. A.
Eaton cannot get along without the
help of his wife, and she will do the
work up in better shape than he can.
While he is doing the heavy work lm
wife puts foundations in sections, and
does a great deal of other light work.
II. F. Moore finds that women are the
best hands to keep things in order.
Dr. Mason (in reply) knows that
women are a wonderful help, but, to
be serious about it, many men are
killing their wives to keep from hir
ing-, and he thought too much of his
wife for that—except, perhaps, at
swarming time. Dr. Miller said that
if he goes out to the apiary without
the women he cannot find anything,
and when he wants to go home all the
tools arc scattered around the yard.
Women straighten things up better
than men d>>, and keep them in better
shape.— [New York Witness.
A CROP FOR MARSHES.
It will pay well to improve marshes,
lowlands, ponds and streams of water
that have mud bottoms by sowing with
wiki duck’s rice (Zizania aquatiea,
Indian rice, water oats.) It is a 1 an
nual, nv i 11 spread all over marshland,
and does not freeze or die out. llorscs
and cattle will eat its luxuriant growth
of leaves as freely as young sugar
corn, and it is excellent for fattening
stock of all kinds, fed either green or
cured. The seed is absolutely sure to
grow, flourish a id return a generous,
heavy yield, and is always a sure for
age crop. No plant yields so heavily,
lo abundantly, so easily, so surely, so
continually, as wild duck's rice.
Wild rice also does well in ponds
and streams. It should be planted in
August or September, broadcast from
the shores, or from n boat in ono to
eight feet of water having a mud bot
tom. It glows very rapidly. As an
attraction for wild fowl it cannot be
equalled. A friend writes: “It
brought me more good meals on the
table thau if I had butchered my fat
test calf.” WiW ducks are very fond
of wild riee, and an acre of it will af
ford attraction and food for thousands
of them during the autumn months.
They can easily be caught in the tall
wild rice stalks. In large ponds and
lakes it purifies the water and affords
refuge for small fry, with plenty of
food from the nnimalc-.ilie upon its
stalks. For planting in fishponds, it
is especially desirable; the stalks in
the water are continually sought by
fishes.— [Farmers’ Review.
A WORD TOR THE GUINEA FOWL.
The Guinea fowl, which, from its
ordinary habits and the quarrelsome
nature of the male bird, is, as a rule
nnpopular, lias an advocate in a New
England woman, who, writing in the
Poultry Journal, has the following tc
say in its favor:
“A flock of Guinea fowls is a great
adjunct to the farm. They make the
best sort of watchmen, and never fai:
to notify the farmer of night thieves
or poultry stealers. There is a profit
in Guinea fowls, too, considering the
small amount of care and expense at.
tached to keeping them. As a rule,
the Guineas prefer to pick up most ol
their living, and they should have a
large place over which to range. It is
necessary lo feed them a little every
day, otherwise they Avill wander away
from the farm and take up their head
•quarters elsewhere.
‘‘They will not scratch up seeds
planted in the garden, but they do eat
a great number of grass seeds, as well
as those of Undesirable plants. They
consume an enormous amount of grubs
and insects, however, which is a great
p<*nt in their favor. Without any
special fattening they become plump
and heavy at tho season of the year
when game goes out of the market.
They are generally killed for market
between February and April. They
bring fair prices at such seasons of the
year, and often return big profits to
the grower. The Guineas always steal
their nests in the nearest hedge or
woods, and in laying-time it is neces
sary to look pretty carefully to find
them.”
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Save all the corn and stalks this year.
Strong lyc clcaus tainted pork bar
rels.
Keep both stock and farm on the
gain.
Fill the silo as rapidly as possible in
the latest order.
Calves as well a9 colts should be
taught to lead while young.
Push the lambs now for growth and
fat before the frost comes.
Perfect drainage is indispensable for
health and profitable farming.
Don’t forget to have salt where all
the stock can have free access to it.
The overdraw check is cruel. Bet
ter sacrifice “style” than your fine
feelings.
We are learning that many dairy
theories once thought tenable will not
hold water.
The western farmer can increase his
stock with more clover to mix with
the corn 6talks.
Clover is the besl for growing ani
mals. Begin to cull out and fatten all
of the unprofitable cattle and sheep.
The feet of tout seldom receive tho
care and inspection so necessary to
their future perfection and sound*
ness.
Scientists hare said that ensilage is
a good cow feed, and they agree with
the verdict of the farmers and the
cows.
Ensilage is a good feed, but all en
silage is not alike; it is not yet known
what all the conditions are that insure
success iu titling tho silt).
Wo are learning something new
about it every year, and it seems to be
the general opinion that the silo will
become a necessity to tho stockman.
We are gaining iu daily science,
and from what we now know can
make some estimate of tho immen^o
number of things we do not know.
