Phosphate For Bects.

Where farmers use phosphate for grain
they soon get into the habit of applying
1t to other crops The latest is bcets
The grain drill was run through the field
distributing phosphate through the two
outside and middle tubes or in rows
twenty-cight inches apart. Then the
garden di was used to put in the best
seed following these rows. In one place
the best seed was drilled seven inches
outside the line for few feet, and there
the beets a month after planting were
scarcely above the surface, while on the
phosphated lines the beets were at least
three times as large month after plant
ing. Phosphate is known to be excellent
for turnips of all kinds, and the success
of this experiment shows the advantage
of giving it trial on other roots and
crops as well. L. CuHirdt0r.

Raising Calves.

Professor Knapp, in speaking of the
calf before the Illinois Dairymen's asso-
citation, said: "If little grass and hay
and considerable corn be fed during the
first year limited capacity of the
stomach will very naturally be devel-
oped and tendency to thrive only I'M
der grain conditions. Such an animal
is a poor grazer and light hay feeder
Upon the other hand, if considerable
wheat, bran and oats be fed, with album
dance of milk, grass and hay, the ten
dency will be TO produce a large stom-
ach, with well sprung rib, fine head
and short legs, while rapid growth will
be secured. Such an animal will give a
large flow of milk and keep in fair flesh
upon the pasture alone, and when dry
will winter well upon hay. This is Of
great importance to the farmer, as a ton
is worth only about twenty-five per cent
more than ton of the best meadow hay
for food. The best hay at four dollars
per ton would be equal to corn at five
dollars, or fourteen cents per bushel.
Hay contains an abundance of nutritive
material to support an animal in high
condition. The question is, whether the
animal will eat and can digest sufficient
quantity. This depends upon the hay
and the capacity of the stomach.

Farm and Garden Notes.

The one sure way to have good COWS is
to raise promising animals yourself.
Instead of fencing in the garden, fence
in your hens. Every enlightened farmer
needs a hen yard, and the best one is an
orchard of liberal size.
A Minnesota farmer digs holes in his
fields five inches deep and eight or ten
inches square, with perpendicular sides,
for the purpose of catching cutworms.
A correspondent says; Sheep poisoned
by eating laurel can be saved by giving
each gill of strong green tea. One

do anything BY halves. They have q written contract with
the D. &C s. Ry, to make this a station and stopping place
