\ SUNFLowER-sEED SHELLER.-
As some of our readers may contemplate
growing a supply of sunflower seed tho
coming season, they may be encouraged
TO do 50 by having an Implement for
separating the seeds from the heads,
which is usually very tedious work.
Take two pieces of half-inch plank,
sixteen inches long and four inches
wide: next, two block pieces 2X4 and
six inches long; nail the two blocks be-
tween the ends of the planks, then take
half-inch plank and make one edge to a
V-shape; saw it into siX-inch lengths
and put them into a box before made
parallel with the ends about one Inchi
apart; nail this to a plank with hole
in it as large as the inside dimensions of
the box. You can then lay the ma
chine over a box, barrel or tub. Handle
the sunfiower head, seeds downward,
and rub the seed off. If the seeds
are dry they will come off very fast.
1t will rub off several bushel of seed an
hour.''

OXEN are serviceable on large farms,
and also in those sections where the
roads are nearly impossible in winter,
as they can travel where horse cannot
venture. They can be bred for the
purposes desired by judicious selection
of the best breeds for producing quick-
draught oxen, the Devon breed being
superior to any other. a Devon OK
Will bear the heat well, travel at a rapid
gait and endure fatigue. a cross of the
Devon with large native stock also pro-
duces excellent oxen, if the male calves
are retained for that purpose.

FALL FEEDING OF BEEs--A West
ern apiarist well says that the average
bee-keeper does not like the work or
feeding sugar-syrup to his bees in the
fall to ensure them against starvation,
because of the attention, and, as usually
practised, the puttering work it takes.
To any such let this word of caution
be dropped: now is the time TO prepare
against having this TO do. While honey
is coming in and the surplus being
stored, a few brood combs filled with
honey should be removed from your
best colonies and set TO one side that
they may be ready to give to those light
in stores later on. There is probably
no more satisfactory way than this
method of Fall feeding. 1t is easily
and quickly done, and does not incite
robbery

SOME of the lawns at Clifton Heights,

KIND of mold, which affects the
lawns in small patches. The grass does
not grow, though manured with stable
manure and fertilizers. y correspond
ent desires to know the cause. 1t may
be due to several causes, among them
excessive rains ESPECIALLY on clay soils,
disease OF the seed from rust, etc. and
frequent moving if the grass is young.
