PREPARING WHEAT LAND.

Work That Should Begin Early and Be Ex.
ceptionally Thorough.
Fegin blowing for wheat at the earli-
est post-harvest moment This will
prevent growth of weeds; and you
will gam the aid of the ram. sun and
air in pulverizing and packing the
ground. Pass, each evening, with
heavy roller, over what has been plowed
during the day. As the ground is dry,
there is no danger of its packing toe
solid if this is done. Rolling will
crush the clods before they have hard.
ened; it will also prevent the drying
out of the ground. 1t is great mis-.
take not to follow close after the pillow
with the roller; the clods harden and
the ground becomes SO dry that part Of
the wheat will not germinate. Allow
the ground to lie until shortly before
YOU desire to sow. Then harrow and
roll until the ground is fine and solid.
Apply the barn-yard manure just before
this. that stirring the ground may mix
it through the soil. The seed bed for
wheat can not be made too fine, nor too
solid if fine. No crop is benefited more
than wheat by undertaking. Wheat
is ssspewed OUT by the freezing of the
water in the ground. Dry earth does
not freeze; no degree of cold will cause
it to expand. But water expands:
hence. when the water in the
ground freezes it hoists the sur
face up and the wheat plants with
it. The wet ground, being heavier than
the roots Of the wheat, settles down in
the spring, leaving the roots exposed.
UNDERSTANDING largely lessons this, be-
cause it removes all surplus water from
the ground. Plants really require very
little moisture about their roots. just
that amount which will imperceptibly
diffuse itself through the earth, is best.
Moae suffocates the plant Under
draining reduces the water in the soil to,
or maintains it at the proper amount;
hence. understanding is the most effective
means against winter-killing. Making
the seed bed very fine and solid has
much the same effect. There is no sur
plus of water; and the water is difused
through the ground. 1t is known that
wheat, on compact ground, is not
apewed out as Is wheat on loose ground
This il sometimes accounted for by the
greater resistance which compact
ground would offer to the frost, and
also the greater tenac;ty with which It
would embrace the roots. But ground
can not be 30 compacted ~ to res.st the
expansive force of freezing water. The
reason is that there il less water to ex-
pand. Besides. the gram germinases

THE OLD MANS PET.


A Touching nct0eme Wnacu bears tme
stamp OF Truth.
Two years ago, shoemaker of Augs-
burg, in Germany, made up his mind
to come to America. where his two sons
had settled. The shoemaker's wife had
died, and he was left alone in tho world,
the only live things in the house with
him being his pet dog and a cage Of
finches He gave his pet dog in charge
of one of his neighbors, and As for the
finches, he sold them, because he was
poor and needed the money to help him
over the sea. He was very sorry to
part with one of the bullfnches, a
bright bird that had been taught by the
shoemaker dead wife to whistle soft,
low song from beginning to end, with.
out so much as false note. But he
sold the bird with the others, babe good
bye to all his friends at Augsburg, and
set sail from the old world to the shin
ing shores of the new.
When he reached America he went to
live with one Of his sous IN Brooklyn.
To his surprise, he found that both Of
his boys were well-t0-do, and though
he had intended to open shoe-shop,
they told him that he must not do that
but must pass the rest Of his life in ease
and peace
So. for the better part of two years.
the old shoemaker Of Augsburg has
lived in Brooklyn. and in spite Of the
| fact that he has not ssstuck to his last, :
he has been contented. Nevertheless.
he often thought about Augsburg. and
about his pet bullfnch, wondering
whether the finch had found m owner
