The great remedy for this evil Is to not allow cattle to grass the atalk fields, but when they are grazed the surface of the soil should be thoroughly torn up by a cutaway harrow, or repeated disking, before the plow Is used, so that the soil that is turned down to make the root tone will be perfectly tree from clods. If the careless farmer Is satisfied he has a clod reducing machine that will thoroughly reduce any and all aurface clods when properly used, he Is not so careless a farmer as our neighbors may. in their ignorance, have called him, while, on the other hand, the man who thinks he is careful, who plows clods down deep into the soil and leaves them there tor a year, la really a very slovenly farmer, and la yearly cutting off the plant food from the root zone, and it would be better if he never plowed hla land at all. ment reached London in good condition. the other parte being described as irregular in condition and unsatisfactory. tn 1882 two shipments of frosen were made from New Zealand, comprising about ,000 carcasses, wblch reached their destination In good condition. A small quantity of beet and about 130,000 carcasses of mutton were shipped to England from Near Zealand, while only one-hathat amount was shipped from Australia. In 1882 tbs entire shipment of meats amounted to 1,707,328. This amount had Increased In 1896 to 123,676,564 pounds. This whole business depends on tha cooling or freezing plants that hav been Invented during the last two decades. By means of these machines the air is reduced to, say, 70 degrees below sero. and at this temperature the meat Is quickly frozen. The steamers that carry the meats also have cooling plants that enable them to keep down the temperature of the air in the holds of the vessels to a point where the meat remains permanently frozen. The possibilities of these plants are so great that a cargo of meats could be- - carried several- times around tbe world without detriment to Its quality. It will thus be see that the frozen meat trade of tbe countries in tbs southern hemisphere is bound to develop. The hope- is that the ratio of consumption of meats in tha European markets wULcontlnua as rapidly as the supplies. MIXING NOTES.
