1t is important that the corn crib be

Pinch off the tips Of the new canes of

Fertilizers applied to the soil not only
benefit it for that year, but for several
subsequent ones. The soluble clements
are not all within the reach of the roots
of the first crop. Besides some of them

Early cutting of hay not only secures
a more digestible fodder, but encourages
the growth of second crop on the same

How much fertilizer should be used per
acrel That depends on the condition of
your acre. 1t might not need any, or it
might need several cords, or an amount
anywhere between the two extremes. 1t

need another, or even complete ferti-

Turkeys are capable of rapid digestion
and are always apparently hungry. If
allowed to forage they can be kept at a
very small expense, but when kept iu
confinement they consume more than
hens. When young and growing they
produce a carcass equivalent to the food
consumed.

MAcHIzERY on THE FARM.

When machinery was first introduced
upon the farms of this country there was
bitter opposition made against it, not
only by the hired hands, who thought
they saw their occupation leaving them,
but even the farmers themselves could
not approve of such ruthless work. Now,
however, this is all changed, and es-
pecially on the dairy farm, where every
new machine or improvement on the old
one is welcomed at least for a trial. In
this way we have seen all the modern
methods taken up and tried fairly and
squarely. The last to go through this
trial was the separator, which became so
favorably fixed in the good opinion of
the people that scarcely a single factory
dare proceed without one, unless there
was some exceptional features surround
ing 1t. The next machine to come into
general use will be the butter extractor,
which takes off more than half the labor
needed with the separator and makes the
finest of butter without the need of skill.
The farmers want it, and the creameries
will it. Such has been the history
OF all good, practical machines since the
first prejudice of the farmers was over
come.-Ndti0nal Dahyman.

beet Sugar In America.

There are at the present time but
three beet sugar houses in America. Two
of these are in California and one in
Nebraska, at Grand Island. The latter
is a model factory, backed by ample
capital, equipped with all facilities for
prosecution of beet sugar manufacture as
developed in the beet sugar countries of
Europe. This season it has contracts
with some 600 farmers within 100 miles
of the factory. Railroads make favor
able rates for delivery of the most dis
tant culture. This season exceptionally
unfavorable weather has somewhat re-
duced the quantity of beet roots ex-
pected, but the supply will be ample to
make a thorough test of the possibilities
of successful beet sugar production in
Nebraska.
The analysis of the beets thus far re-
ceived indicate high standard of sugar
contents, every load of beets delivered
being sampled out and tested. A fixed
price is paid for a certain minimum
standard, and the price varies from the
minimum upward. Our Government
consider the experiment of beet raising
of such importance to the farmers of the
entire country, that Secretary Rusk, Of
the Department of Agriculture, who has
visited Grand Island, has detailed a
chemist from his department to remain
at Grand Island during the season of
sugar making, and to prepare carefully,
for the use of the department, all the
data available in relation to the work,
from the growing of the beets to the
final marketing of the sugar.-Neo Or

Black Walnut.

Black walnut is rapidly becoming ex-
hausted and there seems to be nothing in
this country to take its place. No other
tree is 80 valuable. It grows rapidly, will
thrive IN any soil, and is very hardy, re-
quiring very little care, because no ami
nal and but one insect feed upon il. It
has value but little known, which Is

as it is called, grows firmly on it, and is
easily grated. 1t can, in that way, be
made to yield fortune il cultivated on
n large scale. In twenty, years it will
more than pay all expenses and interest,
and in fifty years the trees would worth

NO EXCUSE FOR INrEMpERANcE.

"The cry has been sounded, and parrot
like, repeated that Poverty makes drunkards
of workingmen.' If there is any truth in the
statement, then it is not to the credit of the
man, or men, who wilfully adds crime TO
misfortune. l admit that the incentive to
become saving and industrious is not so great
where the earnings of labor are cut down TO
the lowest possible figure, but even then
there is no excuse for intemperance. II am
in poverty II should be my aim TO elevate
myself, and it is a stern duty with me to
avoid that which will make me poorer.
Every sensible man knows that the liqlor
habit leads to degradation, disease, dirt and
death Not only does poverty follow in
temperance, but i'll health and every other
Ill will assuredly follow in its wake. 1t is
therefore unjust when we excuse the intem-
perance OF a poor man TO lay the blame of it
TO his poverty. We find drunkards every
where, and, in proportion t. their numbers,
the wealthy have more victims to the liquor
habit than the working people, 50 that it is
not poverty that is to blame. .n-Terrence "
