How to Clear Wood Land

1t is not enough to 60 into the woods
with an ak to clear woodland MS it
should be. Long ago the practice of
burning and logging ceased. and since
then forests have only been thinned by
the annual removal of wood as it was
needed. The disadvantage of this was
that the best was always taken, leaving
only the less valuable kinds of timber,
Thus the value of the wood lot con.
stantly decreased until in many places
1t consists only of scrubby and gnarled
trees not worth the cost of working up.
The far better way is to make an entire
clearing each year. and then either re-
plant with valuable timber or use the
cleared land for other purposes. In this
way much more valuable wood can be
grown on smaller area than now. -

Sorghum for Fodder.

A correspondent of the Rural World
says: Lastyear we planted about one
half an acre of Early Amber sorghum
cane. We began feeding about the
time it began to head. and the second
growth was ready to cut in six or
eight weeks. / do not think cane as
good for milk as for fat but put it
up for winter feed. and find it a most
excellent food for wintering stock.
Last fall when putting straw in a barn
the idea occurred to me of mixing
green corn or cane in the straw. Att
err putting about four feet of straw i'm
the barn, l cut load of cane and
spread it about six inches thick
over the straw, keeping it foot
or SO from the sides; then a foot
or two of straw. then more cane and
so on until the barn was filled. also
put in load of green corn. We put
in between four and FIVE tons of green
fodder. and its weight pressed the
straw so we were able to put more
straw in with it than without it. When
we came to open it the fodder was in
good condition. and the stock would
eat up every bit of it. 1 shall put it
in thicker next fall, so as to have
enough to try it for iattening pur-
poses.
The Nebraska Farmer gives these
instructions: Sorghum seed should
not be planted until the ground is
thoroughly warm, even warmer than
tor corn. A great many failures

Sunday Services.

Religious services were held in German at
o'clock, by Rev. G. E. Hitler, of Minneapolis, as
sisted by Rev. Emil Christ, at the conclusion of
which Rev. A. d. Rowe conducted the regular
Sunday services.
His text was taken from passages of the 10th
chapter of Luke The question of the lawyer
what shall do to inherit eternal lfe?' and
who is my neighbour answered by Jesus
were the leading thoughts of the discourse The
parable of the Good Samaritan contained in the
answer of Jesus, was commented upon and ex.
planned in its application to our lives. This most
interesting parable, teaching the lesson of sym
patty, love, and duty. was applied to the life OF
the Christian in a manner that served to convince
the audience that there is a vast difference be
tween true sympathy and that false show of pre-
tention, which those in position see so much
of. The aged teacher who showed so well his
understanding of the parable will be kindly re
membered by his hearers

If you examine into the history of rogues,
you will find that they are as truly manu-

just because our present (English) system
