In the accompanying sketches from American Gardening A represents a young perennial plant at the beginning of its first winter in the open ground. The line (1 may represent a substance that serves as a winter protection to the young plant, be that substance snow or some cover supplied artificially. If the cover be snow. that is the most perfect ‘0! all substances for plant protection. Covered continuously from the first fall of the feathery substance after summer l The confusion of English sound and let- ters is well illustrated by spelling cof- fee without one correct letterâ€"kauphy r-WhiCh spelling is nearer the original than the one in use, for a pamphlet was printed in Oxford in 1659 on “The Na- ture of the Drink Kauphi or Coflee.” The artistically bad orthography of many of our funny writers is made pos- sible by the glaring inconsistencies of our alphabet. But some instances of nat- ' urally funny bad spelling are perhaps equal to any artificial ones. Here is a note that was sent to a doctor: young plant, be that substance snow or some cover supplied artificially. If the cover be snow. that is the most perfect of all substances for plant protection. Covered continuously from the first fall of the feathery substance after summer until it clears aWay the following spring ‘ or early summer, the root comes through safely, defying the severest cold. But in sections provided with no wintercov- ering except snow at varying periods how is the hardy plant here placed in jeOpardy? This is shOWn by B and C, which set forth the process of plant in- jury by the heaving of the soil. Heav- ing of the soil refers to its expansion by ,A - _:_n... :“4“’;nnfl in” Us WV ~vâ€"â€" .v,, , freezing. Heaving is especially injurious when, unmodified by the presence of a protecting coat to the plant, it is fre- quently repeated as the surface freezes and thaws, expands and contracts. 3 LA ALA.“ WIn the figuré B is suppos‘ how the soil and plant of A I PLANTS HEAVI‘NG BY raosr. the soil’s freezing. The result is that in the case of a young plant all the roots are raised somewhat, as here shown. With thawing out the soil contractsâ€" that is, settles backuâ€"and the plant can- not always go back With it because the lower ends of the roots may be held like a vise by the lower stratum of frozen earth, which continues frozen although the surface thaws and freezes repeatedly. Without taking time to explain every detail of the process the fact remains ‘that many a young plant which the autumn finds in the shape of A will, without winter protection, be seen the following spring to kid considerably shove the surface, as shown in C. In many cases death in the roots follows. And so it is that the plant that would thrive in Siberia does not stand one mild winter in New York. Tho remedy has: already been suggest- sd. In latitudes where reliance cannot be placed on snow a substitute must be provided. For this, according to the au- thority quoted, there is nothing better than a winter coat of manure, which not only protects from frost, but sup. plies fertility at the same time. In the garden this is easily done.

Got the butter in good condition as soon as possible after churning and pack it firmly in gallon or half gallon jars. Those containing five or six pounds are preferable. When the jars are brought, ask the seller, as he marks the weight of each, to number them, so that a'rec- 0rd of the amount of butter in each jar can readily be kept. Pack the jars level full, tie a round piece of strong, thick ‘ cloth over the top and place it bottom side up into a new, large crock. Do not puck butter made at difierent times in the same jar, but store only those jars that can be filled at one churning. Make strong brine, using all the salt ‘ the’water will absorb, adding to each ‘ gallon a teaspoonful of saltpeter and a teaspoontul of granulated sugar. Scald the brine and skim it thoroughly. When cold. strain through a wet thick cloth into the crock. Add more brine from time to time to keep the jars covered two inches in depth. Tie a thick cloth over the crock to protect from dust, and over this place a wooden cover to ex- clude the light. Do not keep the crock on the cellar floor, even it it is a cement one, but on a platform, if possible, with slate un- derneath the crock to insure free circu- ucsuu-vn w- 'â€"--_ , , lution of air. This will prevent mold forming on th9_bottom of the crock. #Lâ€" __Aj :- lULuIaA-o â€" â€"_- .._ Several smaller crooks mu be used in which to store the jars rather than use the large crook.

Ever on the watch for anything that will improve my own condition or that of my fellow dairymen, I give you the result of an experimental improvement I have inade in my dairy the last sea- son. I am following winter dairying and making better for weekly delivery to special customers. I knew that to hold the trade I must make perfect but- ter in winter as well as in summer. I had found it diflicult to get perfect fla- vor, color, texture and grain in winter so as to rely on the product. I learned that ripening or souring of the cream ‘ was the result of the growth at bacte- ria. Reason taught me that there was a period in the development of these bacâ€" teria that was better calculated to make perfect butter than any other. I also knew that it Was as impossible to mix bacteria of 19 hours development with that of 2‘, 80 and 48 hours’ growth and call it all 24 hour bacteria as to mix peas. beans, cats and corn to ther and c “1 it all “gate or beans. be- gafi sk mining the cream sweet (from cans), putting it in water below 48 de- grees and keeping it all sweet until I 2m; mm; m; a cream running box of my own device, war'inod is to 65 to 66 de- green, kept it all curred until properly ripened for churning and found that it made the finals flavored and most por- toot grained butter I lnd ever produced.
