VALUE OF Corn CoBs. Few farmers
stop to consider how much of ferl,izng
matter is annually wasted about the farm,
or OF the expense incurred in purchasing
he same materia s in other forms. Thus
in the apparently insignificant matter Of
corn COBB is an item worth saving. If
he accommodations of corn cobS were gath
red up and thrown into the hog pen, they
would, by next spring, be- reduced to ma
uure. 1t has been estimated that in the
corn cnbs grown in this country last year
we're upwards OF 10000, 900 pounds of
polash 1t is advisable in most cases, for
"at le food, to grind the cobs with the
corn. and thus preserve the potash con-
t'linrd therein Where corn cobs are used
in lighting fires at the farmhouse, the
potash may be saved in the increased value
OF the ashes
1t is well known that the different
varieties of wood, when burned, Weld
varying proportions of potash. At the
head of the list in the production of potash
stands the willow; hence its ashes are of
superior valae in this respect, yet corn
cobs contain double the amount of potash
carried in the willow; so, in this manner,
we may approximate the value of the
ashes obtained in the burning of corn cobs
and preserve the same for future use in
fel tilz ,tion of the soil of the farm. Sue
cessful farming is commonly the result of
careful attention to the little things, to the
economical use of the smallest element of
value. Hence, even the corn eobs, with
their product of potash are worthy the
attention of the practical and thrifty
farmer. The enormous cost to the
farmer Of potash-whether it is barnyard
manure, in his commercial fertilizers or
in his more direct purchases of potash in
one form or another-renders the econOm
ical utilization of corn cobs matter of
some Importance 1t is but a. few years
since most of our New England farmers

WHEAT RUsT-A writer in the n, Y.
Tjnus says, in regard to the rust fungus
IN wheat: "Rut there is an effective
means of fighting this enemy which should
be made available now. This is the
stepping of the seed in some protective
solution by which the spores the rust
fungus upon the seed may he destroyed,
and the sowing OF the seed be prevented.
There are several of these solutions. The
most convenient are four ounces of sui
plate of soda in the same quantity OF wa
er; strong brine of salt; salt urine in
which the decomposition has produced
,hundant ammonia. With the first and
second it is advisable TO scatter fine dry
lime upon the seed as it comes moist from
he solution. Tne seed is stepped in the
solution or The ibuid for six hours, until
it has become swollen and saturated. 1t
is then sown in the usual manner, and, if
