Observations and Experiments Of
Interest TO Farmers.
On AGRICULTURAL UTENSILS.
Sugar Making in This Country Diffusion
Process of Making Sugar-SOrghum
Sugar for Home Consumption.

Nearly all of the enormous amount of
sugar consumed in the United States is
of foreign growth, because we cannot
hope to compete with the tropics in the
production of cane sugar. Any informa-
ton in regard to increasing the yield in
our small sugar zane districts or of sue
cessfuIly manufacturing sugar from
other plants Of wider adaptability to our
soil and climate cannot fail to be of gen
eral interest.
From brief review of the condition
of the sugar problem in a recent report
of the commissioner of agriculture many
facts of interest are learned in regard to
points that have been determined by ex-
periments made under the supervision
of the department, with the hope of
securr = still greater prosperity for the
sugar industry, and with the ultimate
object of producing at home all the
sugar which we consume.
One point of great interest appears in
the statement that by the adoption of the
diffusion process the quantity of cane
sugar produced is largely increased and
its manufacture rendered more effective
and economical. So satisfactory has this
diffusion process proven in Louisiana, it
promises to speedily replace the old mill
ing system and render sugar making in
this country a profitable industry.
One of the most promising sources of
sugar for home consumption is found in
the sorghum plant. 1t has been salts
factorily ascertained that this plant ap-
pears to flourish in regions too hot and
dry for the successful production of In
dian corn, fact of great importance to
the semi-arid regions Of the southwest.
The sorghum plant is one of wide varia-
tions, sometimes showing a sugar pro-
ducing quality almost equal to the sugar
cane. Beet sugar has been made sue
cessfully on the Pacific coast In Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington territory
are extensive localities where q beet rich
in sugar can be grown. On this side of
the Rocky mountains, Northern Indiana,
Southern and Western Michigan, North
ern Ohio and New York also present soil
and climate favorable to the culture of
the sugar beet.
The commissioner recommends the
establishment of special experiment
station, in a suitable locality, for the
future study of the variations in the
sorghum plant, with view to the per-
petuity of the one best suited to the
manufacture of sugar.

When you see a runaway horse COM
ing, advises Southern Cultivator, do not
try to check him by a rush from the OPP
posite direction or the side, for you will
be Immediately knocked fiat by the col
lision, but instead prepare yourself for
a short run with the horse. Measure
with your eye the distance, and start for
the run while he is yet some way off,
perhaps ten feet in the case of fair to
medium runaways. You may depend
upon his keeping straight line, for a
really frightened horse is half blind, and
would not veer for a steam engine. He
will go straight ahead until he smashes
into something. So do you get close to
the line on which he is rushing, and, as
he passes you, grab the reins near the
saddle. Gather the reins firmly, and
then, leaning backward as you run, give
them a powerful yank. You may be
able to brace yourself somewhat as you
give this yank, half sliding on your feet.
The strong jerk on the bits tells the
horse that he again has a master, and
prepares him for the final struggle. A
step or two forward after the first yank,
do it again. This is the finishing stroke.
1t never fails when given by detern-
ined man. The horse is on his launches.
Keep a firm pull on the reins till you
grasp the horse by the nostrils, and hold
him so until he is pacifed.

Dairy Farming.

The best advice that can be given to a
person who wants to go into dairy farm
ing on an extensive scale is to visit some
Of the largest farms in his vicinity where
that branch of farming is carried on,
and to observe the methods of those who
are successfully prosecuting the business.
Very much more that will be Of advan-
tage can be learned in that way in few
days of observation and inquiry than
from any instructions that can be given
or that can be derived from books. One
of the things that should govern in de-
Gliding such a question should be the
natural adaptability of the farm to stock
raising, rather than to growing grain
proftably. Again, dairying is usually
the most profitable where there is a near
and ready market for milk.

Wool Affected by Storage.

A wool dealer and farmer says: Being
in the wool trade and also connected with
farming interests, am aware that the
storage of wool is question frequently
discussed, but [ have not noticed that
one important point, viz, the effect of
long storage on wool has been considered.
If wool, like butcher meat, could be
bought as required, there is no doubt
that washing would be loss. Why?
The yolk supplies SO much potash that
there is great saving of soap in scour-
ing and the yarn is much softer. On the
other hand, as the years supply has to
be laid up somewhere, you must consider
how unwashed wool will stand the long
keep. My experience is that the color
suffers and the wool becomes unfit for
white purposes; also, that the potash has
such an effect on the structure of the
fiber that it gets quite brittle and does
not comb well.

If only the bees are to be moved from
one hive to another it may be done by
placing the new hive on top of the old
onewith a communication between them,
and blowing smoke among the bees and
rapping on the lower hive Experienced,
bee keepers have no trouble in removing
bees and comb from one hive to another,
but it will be best for novice to get
some one with knowledge of the bust
ness to do it for him, at least for the first
time. Quinby says there is no better time
for transferring than when the apple
trees begin to blossom, but the directions
for cutting out the comb from the old
box hives and transferring it to new
ones, are too lengthy to be given in full
here. When the bees are in the improved
hives the removal of comb and bees is
quite easily done. Smoke should always
be used toquiet bees while they are being
handled.

Sanbo-n, of the Missouri agricultural
! experiment station, in report recently
issued, gives some of the results of test
made with harrows and other tillage i'm
plements at the state farm upon four
classes of soils, viz: An old grass sod, a
! soil for several years under tillage and
somewhat lurnpy from the influence of
drought; corn ground, from which the
stalks were removed at the roots for
trial and tested before blowing and while
IN its compact state, and a clover sod.
From these experiments it was learned
that no one implement excels in all re-
spects for all classes of soils, which illus
trates thenecessity of adapting machines
to soil and purpose for which used.
1t was shown that the lightest draught
harrow draws 80 or more per cent. harder
than the average draught of pillow, and
over 90 per cent. harder than the neces-
sary draught of the pillow per square
inch Of end section of soil moved. The
plow is double wedge, and therefore
congresses the soil. 1t deals with masses,
and is an inverter of mass, while har-
rows and cultivators deal with particles,
and pulverize the soil, and must be ex-
pected to draw harder per square inch
Of soil moved. But the difference is not
enough to warrant increasing the draught
of the pillow by making it combined in
verter and pulverizer of soil, as very con-
vex mold boards are intended to be.
The following review notes are given
of the tests made:
l. No one harrow is sufficient for the best tilth
of farm.
.. The harrow needed varies with the soil and
its condition.
3. Harrows, as substitutes for plows, do not
save force.
4. Harrows till shallower than supposed.
5. The bottom of the TILED area varies widely in
regularity.
6. Wedge teeth and fat teeth with a front slant
compress soil and are probably good for light
soils.
T. Teeth lifting dirt to the rear loosen soils best
S. One harrow may break the clods best, but not
leave the soil as fine as another.
9. For a general purpose harrow on a heavy soil,
depth of cut, looseness of soil, ease OF draught
and pulverization are the leading demands

Things That Are Told.

Dr.. J. B. Warren, ornithologist of the
Pennsylvania state board of agriculture,
stated before one of the New York in
stitutes that hawks and owls are collect
lively a benefit to the farmer, though
there are a few objections OF the ten
species of owls three are injurious, viz:
the great horned owl, the snowy owl
and the barred owl.
The entomologist of the Ohio expert
ment station reports successful results in
keeping rose beetles at bay by spraying
grape vines and peach trees with diluted
lime wash, made by adding a peck of
freshly Stacked lime to barrel of water.
If we were raising peaches largely,
says the editor Of the Rural New Yorker,
we would use ground bone and kainit or
muriate of potash.
Phosphate of lime and nitrate Of soda
can never be rivals, for while both are
necessary in the practice of progressive
farming, the action Of each is compile
7zs-z.t;.zy tc t ttis.e of f t!tia othcr.
'By feeding an abundance of bone
and muscle forming foods, such as
wheat middlings, clover, peas and oats,
we can raise strong, healthy pigs which
will not readily succumb to hog cholera, j
is reported as the opinion Of F. D. Curtis.
Common report has it that bees will
not work after monday on the flower
of the common buckwheat. Professor
A. J. Cook found this not true this
season on the japanese variety; bees
were on the flowers at all times of the
day.
According to The Live Stock Journal
there is no branch Of live stock breeding
more promising of profit to the southern
farmer and stockman than swine hus-
bandry.
Professor Henry is reported as affirm
ing that uncut cornstalks make ensilage
of the best quality, but the labor of get
ting them out of the silo is too great.
Avoid the mistake Of sowing seed too
thickly in hot beds, as crowded plants
spoil quickly if not transplanted at just
the right time.
