The secret of all success on the farm. as
we'll as in the office, the store room, the
shop, or any place that we may select to
battle for living or a fortune, is intelli-
gent, earnest, honest effort We may la
Dor all our lives and accomplish nothing
but slavery and failure, unless our labor
is we'll directed by a well informed mind
1t IS brain power, not muscle, that gives
us success in anything we undertake.
When farm labor is conducted with the
same degree of intelligence that 1t takes
to make success in the professions and
also Tor the business man, then the farmer
will become successful and respected
But as long as the farmers of our land
are looked upon as ignorant and the I'M
der current IN society, and accept the sit
uation, they never can make a success
The farmer that is ignorant in his calling
is at par or on a level with the LAWYER
doctor, preacher or mechanic that is not
Informed in his occupation. Each one
will make a failure the one Just As GER

drain, not squeeze Take equal parts Of

jelly is soon made. Take the grapes out

First, that the Democratic party represents

and generous profits for manufacturers, steady
work, 4 chance in every foreign marker on the

Second, that the Republican party represents

HOMES FOR GRAPE; VINES

Popular Gardening SAYS the man who
throws plenty of bones in the hoe when
he sets ou' his grape vines will be aston
lshed at thplr extra vigor over those vines
where no bones were used. and also II the
way that yigor viii be maintained for
Years afterwards. The editor says he has
repeatedly called attention to the great
waste indulge! in by many people, who
sutlcr quantities OF bones as they come
from the kitchen 10 lie about the premises
unutilzed. Bury them near your grape
vines by all means. This advice is de-
cdedly good, but for the best results we
would recommend always breaking the
bones as finely as possibly before hurying
them. The plant can feed on the bone
only as decomposition takes place, and
this only takes place at the surface
About twenty years will be required to
completed ro1 a large and unbroken bone
breaking gives it more exposed surface,
and hence hasteus decomposition. The
work of breaking may be performed with
an old axe on stump or log, when moth
ing better is at hand 1t will always pay
well.-4Uobi(e Register.

Replying to correspondent who IN
,,;res how farmer can convert bones
;rto phosphate with materials such as he
ooni easily obtain, the New England
Farmer, says:
Bones are converted into phosphate by
he;nc first crushed and then dissolved in
snlphurc acid. This acid is a dangerous
ronid to handle it is shipped i'll glass,
and if the glass breaks or the acid in any
way gets spilled there is no telling what
mischief or loss Of life may result. In
he last report Of the Connecticut expe
,;ment station, just issued, the director
COWS that the manufacture of superphos
nbate on the farm from phosphate ma
isrias and oil of vitrioI (Sulphuric acd),
i not commonly a paying operation.
N;yinr bones and wet ashes is often rec
ommended as a cheap and easy way to
o,uyert the former into available fer
,;l;zpr but those who have tried it have
n.ualy become disguised with the eX
nprmcnt. In the vicinity of bone mills
ddId bones bring from so to $50 per ton
tor grinding, while the ground bone may
brina $50 10 $40 per ton. At first thought
he difference may look like large profits
N The grinding, but it must be remem-
lrrtd that bones picked up i'll back yards
are We, and heavy and consequently Of
j., value than the ground bone, which
Ia. parted with much of its moisture in
t6e drying and grinding process. The
Connecticut station examined nineteen
SAMPLES Of bone last year and found the
nitrogen varying from 1874 per cent. the
lowest to G.51 per cent. the highest. The
pbospholic acid varied from 1922 to
56.56. and the cost prices from SIS to $40
per ton, while the estimated valuation
ranged from $22,54 to $43.49 So it
seems there IS no more a standard Of
value for ground bone than for the un-
ground bones picked up in yards and
streets. We would not 90 into the bone
phosphate business without the mills and
other facilities for doing considerable
business The few bones that can be
collected on primary farms we would
burn in brush heaps till brittle enough to
crumble readily. Then pound as fine as
convenient, and spread broadcast in the
orchard, where they will be gradually
converted into plant food without waste.
This is better than experimenting with
DANGEROUS acid.
