A bulletin recently issuod " by the
North Carolina Expeiiment statist No.
113) describes the different methods em
ployed for testing milk, cream;'T,utter
milk, etc-, also for testing the aonlteraC
tiensin milk. - The Bibcock milk test
is the chief method ..employed, for the
purpese. It U cTesciibed."in. detail and
anyone vdth care and jibrart experi
enec can soon learn liow to conduct' a
test. Anyone whoJias several cows
should know the relative value of each,
and it often happens that a cow eats
mere food than is returned in her pro
ducts. It is a waste to keep such stock.
The Babcock test affords an easy plan
for learning ii&' richness and value of
the milk, - A person possessing the apt
paratus, which is simply and . compara
tively : inexpensive (costing only about
$10)- can Jtaeily test the milk of the
Dows belonging to his neighbors, and
charge a small .amount for the service.
Such a plan would ho helpful and sav
ing -to both parties.-' Or else several
could buy the te;st apparatus in common.
An illustration (from a photograph) is
given "in, the bulletin showing the ap-,
01 two cows, one-ot which

while the other produced 296 pounds.
This was determined in the above, way
by the testing of the imilk, and shows
the variation which may and "often oc

Farmers of the state should be on

best breeds of poultry which can be re-
commended for different sections Of the
Stare, how to raise them economically,
including the best treatment for dis
eases and insects, and how to prepare
and ship to market all poultry products.
It will be the endeavor to foster tne
industry in North Carolina , so that a
profitable and financially paying busi
ness may be inaugurated in almost any
locality, or. on any farm. -As but littla
capital is required, the.Teturns for the
investment should always be large. The

to extend such knowledge to ail who
raise poultry, as would be of -benefit in

The first and most essential remedy is
to clean cabbage fields thoroughly of
stumps. Either plow ' these under at
least 6 inches deep and .then roll the
ground, ojf gather the stumps and com
post ! them with - lime, -; Never follow
cabbage by the same crop on anv field.
If themaggots, appear- on plants in the
seed: bed, apply a good dressing of lime
or muriate cf potash, to the sou. or suf-
ient kerosene emulsion to wet the
ground t inch deep. If plants in the
field are attacked take a dibber or sharp
stick and make a hole near each plant
as deep as the roots of the plant and
about 1 inch in diameter. - Fill this hole
with kerosene emulsion. If the emul
sion dees not wet the soil "on all sides of
the plant make and fill another hole on
opposite side. -.Usually ; one treatment
will be sufficient for! each crop, but tf
neighboring "jgelds tare left untreated
they will breed flies so fast that a second
treatment may' be necessary after ten
days. " The emulsion must be thorough
ly made.: - But it will be safe in any case
if it is not allowed to touch the leaves
