This does not apply when inferior c‘heese have been properly marked so as to be identified, In which case the inferior cheese shall be treated as a. In the second place, there should be a ceiling between the floor of the mow and the cows. In barns where hay is stored over the cows it is dan- gerous to leave the defective floor without some sort of. ceiling. The chance of fire is much greater, and a sanitary condition of the stable is almost impossible if the dust and bay are allowed to fall through upon the cows. Third.â€"The stabl’w should have good floors. Cracks in the floor are breeding places for bacteria, and they cateh and hold am aCCu'muIation of filth that fills the stables with bad odors. Fourthâ€"Tying the cows can be greatly improved upon. The old fath- ioned rigid stanchion is neither com- fortable nor convenient. The cowt should hm’e a small degree of free- dom at least. This can be provided by the newer makes of stanchions or by a chain or halter. The great ob- jection to the last two is the difficul- ty of keeping the cow clean, and right here is the fifth way in which the staâ€" ble can be improved. Fix the, gut- ters so that they will keep the cow clean and at the same time save all the manure. I have been in barns where the platform was so short that when the cow would lie down she couldnot keep out of the gutter. .l’ have been in other stables where the gutter was simply a couple of 2 by 4’s placed upon the stable floor. Eithâ€" or practice is bad. The best plan is to fix the floor in such a way that it will accommodate the cows and give them ample room for lying down comfortably. Have the gutter about four inches deep and built water tight. This saVes all the liquid ma- nure, keeps the cows clean and makes it much easier to care for the stables and the stock. The sixth point which comes to myl mind afi this time is an improved me- thod in handling the manure. Throw- ing it out of the window is'insani- tary and often inconvenient. fie ma? nure pile. up against the ban, n~ luring the paint. and at the same time losing mud: of its value as a. fertilizer.

In giving certificates on the quali- ty of, butter or cheese, the referee will be guided by the classification and standard adopted two years ago. In this classification “First Grade” is equivalent to “Finest,” a term uSed for many years to denote, first- class quality : and "Under Finest" is divided into second and third grades, with clear definitions for each grade. The adVantage to the seller of hav- ing the grades clearly defined and 0! having three grades instead of two must be obvious to all.

In the pro- duction oi eggs. the number produc- ed is probably as large, it not larger where meshes are used, but the hamhability of the eggs is not so high. During the last year or t'wo we have not fed very many meshes to our breeding birds, but. have fed in place sprouted grain. So far as we can see at the present time the sprouting does not improve the feed- ing qualities of the grain very much, with the exception of oats.

Treating Smut in Grain Seed Along with the increased interest which is being manifested in scienti- fic com culture and the propa' sav- ing and testing of seed greater at- tention is also being gix'en to the matter»! the treatment of the dit- {erent grain: seeds, with a View of checking the damage of various fung- ous diseases. The loss from smut alone has increased greatly in recent years a‘nd is widespread, the per cent. of loss running from 5 to 80 per cent. Treatment with formalin solu- tion is‘ entirely effective in prevent- ing this loss, and the treatment of the seedis not difilcult. Within the past year several good machines have been put on the market at about $35. which will treat any kind of small grain eflectually at the rate of 100 bushels per day. Such a machine could be bought on shares by several neighbors so that the individual ex- pense would not be large. Where such an arranfiment is not practical a simple and inexpensive yet cflective method is to fill a vinegar or kero- sene barrel two-thirds full of water, add apint of 40per cent. formalin. (obtainable at any drug store). put oatsin a gunnysack, immerse till met through/take out, allow to drain back into barrel and then spread on granary or barn floor. This treat- ment should be given about 24 hours before sowing. Smutty seed treated in the abOVe manner will produce a perfectly smut clean crop and will re» sult in increasing the yield from six to eighteen bushels per acre.
