SUGGESTIONS TO WHEAT GROWERS.

Good Recipes and Farm Notes.

The following practical suggestions are
given out by Purdue university based on
results OF their experience at the station,
and are offered in the confident hope that
their application will result advantage
ously on a very large proportion OF the
wheat farms of Indiana:
l. Sow less wheat; grow more grass,
and better live stock.
2. Select hardy, prolific wheat,
adapted to your soil and stick to it. Give
it good treatment and it will not run
out" Sow not less than six pecks TO
sound seed to the acre.
3. Pow wheat ground early, and har-
row Immediately after blowing. You can
thus more easily and more thoroughly
pulverize the soil.
4. Ii ground breaks up cloddy, use
heavy roll alternating with some form Of
harrow or oultivator that will bring clods
30 surface.
3. II manure or fertilizer are used, mix
thoroughly with soil in every case. Use
only rotted manure, II any, and apply
after blowing. Reserve the fresh manure
for the corn crop.
9. Before trying fertilizer, get the ex-
perience and advice OF farmers whose soils
are similar 10 your own.
z. Test the untried brands carefully, in
a small way, before deciding upon their
extensive use. This is the best course for
the reason that even the highest grades
often act very differently on different soils.
S. Adopt rotation OF crops suited 10
your soil and needs. II will % increase
the yield and improve the quality OF your
crops; (2) enable you TO take better care
OF your live stock; (3) prevent serious in
sect depredations and fungous diseases;
ca improve your soil and make il more
lasting, and (5) put money in your pocket.
o. Bear in mind that soils and climate
vary greatly in different localities and that
these potent factors in crop production
will very materially affect the results Of
your work. Therefore, study your local
conditions, and intelligently apply the les
sons of this bulletin only so far as they
may be suited to your needs and sur
roundings.

An old physician, retired from practice, hav-

Nervous Complaints, after having tested its
wonderful curative powers in thousands OF
cases, has felt it his duty to make it known to
his suffering fellows. Actuated by this motive

Butter at 40 cents pays a good profit to the

The man who feeds ground oats bran and

than is usually reached, taking our dairymen

But / do know" says James Cheeseman,
that in New England the number of farmers
producing over 250 pounds of butter per COW

where creameries flourish the farmers find more

Value OF Ground Bones.
PHILADELPHIA Record

The intrinsic value OF pure dissolved
bones is frequently made apparent as an
ingredient in low-grade fertilizers. a few
hundred pounds are introduced in form
ula mainly composed OF cheap materials,
from the use OF which surprisingly good
but very transitory results follow. 1t is
the little leaven of dissolved bones which
has uuickened the mass and given il the
only vitality really possessed. Impurities
and foreign matters akin in color and
weight to dissolved bones cannot be mixed
with them beyond the chances of discov-
cry and better than they could with bone
meal. Deception can no more be effect
ually practiced with the partially acidu-
lated bone than with the raw bone. The
sulphuric acid employed in dissolving has
simply honey-combed the particles in such
a state that the natural action of the soil
and the elements can convert them imme-
diately into plant food. Bearing these
facts we'll in mind, and having the guaran-
tee OF the manufacturer that the article is
made from raw bones, that pure sulphuric
acid is employed in dissolving; that il is
not made wholly, or in part of foreign
matter, it is better for farmers TO use
strictly pure dissolved bones than to in
vest the same amount of money in sub
stance containing less phosphoric acid. 1t
is unquestionably the better policy to Sc
lect fertilizer that is ready for immediate
action, and one sure to give twofold
quicker return, with an almost equal re-
serve store of rich ingredients for the ben
eft of grass and hay crops.

Milk For Shoats.

Prof Sanborn has found middlings a
better food for growing shOats than corn
meal, but skim-milk is the most efficient
Of any of the foods he tried. The meal of
corn and cobs ground together if ten to
twenty pounds of cottonseed meal or
wheat bran are mixed with 100 pounds OF
it, gives decidedly better results than clear
corn meal. Good growth was attained in
one of his experiments on food in which
over four-ffths was clear cob-meal. Prof.
Sanborn states that the cob-meal must be
very fine, as when coarsely ground it has
but little value

Worth Knowing.

The excessive cost of producing pork on
hogs over eight or ten months old or alter
they will dress l75 or 200 pounds is en-
phaszed by Prof. Sanborn's experiments.
He shows that the average Missouri hog
is kept to such an age that he consumes
food worth at least $3.50 in the bare effort
to keep alive beyond the period at which
he should have been killed. This makes
a loss on all the hogs of Missouri of from
S12,000,00C TO SIC, 100000, according TO the
number kept. Since the market demands
light weight hogs, the folly OF keeping
pigs to twice the age at which they should
be killed must be apparent to all.
