Itis based on the yield of<lb />their milk, together with the quatity of<lb />the same as deterniined by tests of the<lb />milk. The rule is to pay for the cow at:<lb />the rate of $12 per gallon of milk given<lb />per day that is rich enough to show 3!¢<lb />per cent of fat. To this price add or<lb />subtract one dollar-for every one-fourth<lb />of one per cent of fat which is above or<lb />below the 3!g-per cent: By this rule a<lb />cow is bought entirely on her merits. It<lb />is believed to be a conservative plan,<lb />and one if adopted (or one upon a simi-<lb />lar plan) will certainly raise the stand-<lb />ard of cows and increase their milk and<lb />butter production, for if they cannot be<lb />sold easily for milk cows, they will soon<lb />be turned over to the butcher, and a bet-<lb />ter animal be kept or a willing purchaser<lb />be found, The result cannot fail to be<lb />beneficial to all parties...<lb />eo Beware of Travelling Seed Peddlers.<lb />Speaker Crisp was unanimously | Parmers of the state should ~be on<lb />nominated by the Democratic caucus their guard against travelling seed. ped-<lb />tae ee eres «sv. aa | dlers-who, it seems, have been operating<lb />of the House for Speaker, and ~will bel in: eeastern, and ~probably other dis-<lb />voted tor by them in its first session. | tricts of the state.

The Babcock milk test<lb /><lb />is the chief method employed for the<lb />purpose, It is described in detail and<lb />anyone with care aud short experi-<lb />ence can soon learn how to conduct a<lb />test. Anyone who has several cows<lb />should know the relative value of each,<lb />and it often happens that a cow eats<lb />more food than is returned in her pro-<lb />ducts. It is a waste to keep such stock.<lb />The Babcock test affords an easy plan<lb />for learning the richness and value of<lb /><lb />the milk. A person possessing the ap-<lb />paratus, which is simple and compara-<lb /><lb />tively inexpensive, (costing only about<lb />$10) can easily test the milk of the<lb />cows belonging to his neighbors and<lb /><lb />charge a small amount for the service. |<lb /><lb />Such a plan would be helpful and say-<lb />ing to both parties. Or else several<lb />could bay the test apparatus in common.<lb />An illustration (from a photograph) is<lb />given in the bulletin showing the ap-<lb />pearance of two cows, one of which<lb />produced 226 pounds of butter per year,<lb />while the other produced 296 pounds.<lb />This was determined in the above way<lb />by the testing of: the milk, and. shows<lb />the variation which may and often oc-<lb />curs in two cows of the herd. The diff-<lb />erence is 81. per cent greater than the<lb /><lb />cow.

They say that crabgrass and<lb />weeds will not grow on land when oats<lb />have been removed, or not so fine growth<lb />as where wheat has grown, They argue<lb />that both crops may be seeded at tho<lb />game time. Js it so, and if so why?<lb />Some information will he gladly received,<lb />J. W. F., Durham, N. C.<lb /><lb />[Answered by F. E. Emery, Aarieuitur- |<lb />ist, N.C. Experiment Station.]<lb /><lb />The difference between what wheat<lb />and oats take out of the land can be<lb /><lb />considered a fair crop of each. Suppose<lb />20 bushels of wheat and 40 bushels oats<lb />are an average crop. Which draws out<lb />most plant food from the.soil? The sta-<lb /><lb />tion wheat experiments in 1891 yielded<lb />an average of 217 pounds of straw to<lb />100 of grain. In, 1888 experiments with<lb />oats at New York state station, yielded<lb /><lb />grain. Using these relations of grain<lb />to straw the crop taken off from an acre<lb />of each grain would be for wheat : 1,200<lb />pounds grain and 2604 pounds straw ; :<lb />for cats, 1280 pounds grain and 1643.5<lb />pounds straw. From. the New York<lb />station report for 1888 the following ta-<lb />ble is taken: It shows the poun sof<lb />plant food removed from the soil in 1.<lb />ton of 2,000 aber each article<lb />named :<lb /><lb />Lbs. of Plant Food in 2,000 Ibs. of<lb />Wheat oOat<lb />Wheat) straw || 89 | straw<lb />Ph, Acid(P?08)} 15.1 | 2.0 || 11.9 |' 1.2<lb />Potash..(K:O}| 8.8 | 10.6 || 9.8 | 27.0<lb />Nitrogen . ox $4.2 | 9,5 89.0 7.6 |<lb /><lb />Therefore from an acre each of wheat<lb />and oats from which the yields obtain-<lb />ed are equal tothe above assumption,<lb />the iotlowsng. amounts of plant food in<lb />pounds w be withdrawn from the<lb />80i<lb /><lb />Lhs. of Plant Food contained in<lb />ch Crop.<lb /><lb />Wheat Crop<lb />Grn Str'w| Total<lb />Phosph.<lb /><lb />Ac (P203)| 9.06). 2.60, 11.66<lb />P't'sh(K20)| 5.28) 13.67) 18.95<lb />Nitr'gTn (N)| 20.52) 12. 81} 32.89<lb /><lb />Oat Crop<lb />GrTn | Str'w, Total<lb /><lb />7.62, i 8.60<lb />6.27<lb /><lb />24.96) 6.25) 31.21<lb /><lb />more phosphoric acid by 8 pounds and<lb />~more uitrogen by 124 pounds, while the<lb />oats would take 944 pounds more potash<lb />than the wheat.<lb /><lb />among farmers that-oats ~are a far better<lb />forager than wheat. Thatis, given an<lb />equal chance, the oats can get more and<lb />do better than wheat. Herice it is ow-<lb />ing to the recognition of less. ability of<lb />wheat to produce as well under like con-<lb />ditions that it is given the better of two<lb />fields where both crops are grown on the<lb />same farm and that determines the ap-<lb />plication of commercial manure to the<lb />wheat oftener, or in greater weight pian<lb />for the oat cro<lb />Under equa conditions to start with,<lb /><lb />the oat crop would pepenee more, and<lb />would take more from the sdil than<lb /><lb />age conditions as met with, . and the<lb />contention referred to, depends finally,<lb />on the condition of the land previous to<lb />cropping with wheat or oats, and on the<lb />application of commercial or other ma-<lb />nure made for the crop.

The manuring<lb />and much of the fitting of the soil can<lb />be best done in the fall. If course<lb />manure is used plow the garden and<lb />apply the manure after plowing on the<lb />surtace. If warm weather follows<lb />heavy rains plow the garden a second<lb />time and turn the manure under. This<lb />will insure a more thorough pulveri-<lb />zation of the soil by frost, the coarse<lb />manure at the bottom of the furrow<lb />holding the soil up so that the frost can<lb />get into it more effectively. Towards<lb />spring an application of commercial<lb />fertilizers mixed with the surface soil<lb />will fit it for producing any crop.<lb /><lb />Mineral Water.<lb /><lb />The RerLector has long been of<lb />the opinion that Pitt county. abounds<lb />in excellent mineral waters. In the<lb />past we have spoken of two wells in<lb />Greenville, one of the yard of H. A.<lb />Suttoi and the other at the College<lb />Hotel, the water from which contain<lb />high medicinal properties. . There is<lb />also a spring on the Howell Cobb farm,<lb />neat Farmville, that has for sometime<lb />been the subject of comment among<lb />people of the community. Recently<lb />some water from this spring was sent<lb />to the State Experiment Station , for<lb />analysis, and following is the report<lb />thereon as returned by the Director :<lb />oTotal mineral matter per gallon 16.92<lb />grains, consisting chiefly of calcium car<lb />bonate, and. smaller quantities of<lb />sodium chloride,T potassium chloride,<lb />magnesium carbonate, oxide of iron<lb />and silica"a calcic water.�<lb />Esquire W. i.
