It Is claimed, however, that section lino roads must bo oponed before tho old roads aro closed.

Truo economy in farming is a wlso uso of every rosource. Sheep greatly Improvo tho land whon too many aro not hopt on tho aero. A dcop soli, tho dcopor tho bettor, should bo selected for tho orchard. A growing pig should bo fed so as to novor be In tho least stunted. Urcedlng from lmmaturo stock has a tondoncy to gonorato tho offspring.

Strain tho milk as soon as It comes In. "A few mlnutos means hours of waiting for tho rising of tho croam. A suit hrlno forms a sort of en closure around oach glohulo of butter without breaking It. Evon whon growing corn Just for foddoij, it Is best to plant tho rows far enough apart so that tho cultiva tor may be used. Tholslmplo fact that stock Is out of condition physically does not nlways domand a courso of nostrums nnd medicines. A heifer that is to bo used for tho dairy should bo handled and mado ac customed to all necessary manipula tions jrom tho start. Tojiroflt ljy mlstako Is tho login- ing of all systematic farming.

Wi Randol, Merchant. : To Improvo tho quality of tho dairy herd select bulls from tho best mllkors. Tho milking qualities of a cow do- pond moro upon thoso of a slro than upon thoso of hor own. An egg boaton up woll and fed In milk to calvos night and morning for a'dny or two will usually cure scours. A tablo spoonful of llmo wator added to It for a wook will also holp the euro. As a mlo a good nppotlto lndicatos good hoalth. It Is no disadvantage for an nnlmal to bo a hearty oator. Such animals produco proportionately to tho amount consumed. Tho food Is simply tho mntorlnl to bo converted Into produco. Bvon for mnrkot tho modcratoly fat animal Is tho most profltnblo. Uvory o.xcosslvoly fat animal has boon fed nt a loss during tho lattor part of tho feeding. When an anlmnl is roady for market soli It Thoro Is nothing to be gained by feeding It longor. In buying cattlo to feed. It tho flesh and skin aro hnrd nnd Inelastic to tho touoh, look out for n hnrd fecdor, An nnlmal that Is hard to fatten Is slow In mnturlng. Whllo tho (lank Is of Uttlo value In Itsolf, nn nnlmal with a long, dcop flank will bo a good fooler, with thick flesh and n good constitution. A good depth In tho girth Is a good thing, hut If a horso Is wldo In tho cheat ho Is Ronornlly not so dcop In tho girth na If narrower. A wldo chested horso Is strongor than a narrow ono, though ho may not look so deep In tho girth. Alwnys measure a horso's dopth or girth with a vlow to his width of chost. Cows should bo milked with regit lartlty. With thoso that milk largely It Is painful whon tho udder Is filled to its utmost capacity and tho milker Is not on band to rollovo thom, nnd ns a conscqucnco thoy becomo nervous and restless. This causes a cow to dry up prematurely, becauso nnturo rebels. Cows should bo milked dry at oach milking, othcrwlso thoy win dry prematurely. FOSTER. Special Correspondence. Fostor, I. T., Juno 22.
