Keep Your TooIs weIl oiled.

One gallon of linseed oil will cost so
to 90 cents. 1t is worth SO to $50 TO
the tools that you put it on. Put on
with brush, as you would paint. Put
it on your wagons, plows hoes, forks,
spades cultivators, drills, reapers-all
kinds of tools and vehicles. 1t pays too
much to be neglected. We cannot af-
ford TO not do it. Do it about twice
this summer and you will find that it
keeps tools in much better fix. Paint
your gates. / have some forks and hoe
handles that have been in constant use
for ten years and they are better than
the new handles we get now because
they have been oiled all the time. / do
it myself; don't have it done. If you
want anything done, do it. | hope
somebody will give their experience
with oil. / am very cranky about oil,
which accounts for my looking so
greasy.-W. A. Clark, in Texas Farmer.

PLANT DIET,
Carbonic Acid of More Importance Than
Soil.

Carbonic Acid of More Importance Than
Soil.
Every plant has one set of aerial
mouths to suck in carbon, and many
plants have another set of subterranean
mouths as well, to suck up water and
mineral constituents Have you ever
grown mustard and cress in the window
on piece of flannel? If so, that's q
capital practical example of the com.
parative unimportance of soil, except as
means of supplying moisture. You put
your flannel in soup-plate by the din
ing-room window; you keep it well wet
and you lay the seeds of the cress on
top of it. The young plants, being sup
piled with water by their roots, and
with carbon by the air around, have all
the little they need below, and grow
and thrive in these conditions wonder
fully. But if you were to cover them up
with an air-tight glass case, so as to eX-
clude fresh air, they'd shrivel up at once
for want of carbon, which is their solid
food, as water is their liquid.
The way the plant really eats is little
known to gardeners, but very interest.
ing. All over the lower surface of the
green leaf lie scattered dozens of tiny
mouths or apertures, each of them
guarded by two small pursed-up lips
which have ridiculously human APP
pearance when seen through simple
microscope. When the conditions of
air and moisture are favorable these
lips open visibly to admit gases, and
then the tiny mouths suck in carbonic
acid in abundance from the air around
them. A series of pipes conveys the
gaseous food thus supplied to the upper
surface of the leaf, where the sunlight
falls full upon it. Now, the cells OF
the leaf contain Il peculiar green diges-
tive material, which i regret to say has
no simpler or more cheerful name than
chlorophyll; when the sunlight plays
upon this mysterious chlorophyll it
sewers the oxygen from the carbon in
the carbonic acid, turns the free gas
loose upon the atmosphere once more
through the tiny mouths, and retains
the severed carbon intact in its own
tissues. That is the whole process of
feeding in plants; they eat carbonic
acid, digest it in their leaves, get rid of
the oxygen with which it was formerly
combined, and keep the carbon stored
up for their own purposes.

PIG PEN POINTERS.

For tape worms in hogs, give no
food for twenty-four hours, then give
half an ounce to an ounce of spirits of
turpentine according to the size of the
animal. Dilute the dose with half
pint of milk and give no food for twelve
hours following.
AS A matter of convenience, do not
slop the pigs on the banks of some
small stream unless you are perfectly
willing that some one else's farm
should grow rich at your expense.
There are farmers in every community
who will follow this course year after
year.
IF you have pasture fields for the
pigs by all means drive to them as soon
as they have their feed morning and
evening. Do not allow them to remain
in the dry lots over night We know
of no better way to top-dress the
pasture fields than by the voidings of
pigs highly fed with bran and ship
stuff.
THE supposed existing scarcity of
hogs is the most promising indication
that those having hogs to sell this fall
and winter will get good price for
them. We're hogs as plenty as one year
ago there would be little encourage
ment for farmers to turn their corn
into pork. We hope last years expert
ence will not come to us again.
IF you have fed your hogs for years
gone by on hill side, because the mud,
cobs and voidings would work down
hill and wash away, leaving compar-
atively clean place for feeding, try to
change this wasteful way of doing, and
save this fertility to the land. 1t is
well to remember that the land needs
feeding as well as the hogs, if you
would have fat crops.
SPEAKING of healthfulness: 1 have
never lost half a dozen hogs from dis
ease, and have never lost hog from
cholera in Kansas, and have been in
the business sixteen years If you want
to throw away your corn, or keep a
hog for the use of him, as fellow once
said when he made nothing out of his
hogs, just put a lot of hogs in a dry lot
and give them corn and water the year
round. Rural World.

a. egg; b, larva; g pupa; d, fly in biting position
all enlarged (After Riley and Howard)
to u of an inch below the surface,
If the ground is soft. The period
of development from egg to the adult
form is from 10 TO II days, and it is
estimated that there may be as many
as generations during the time when
the insects occur d. E., from May Is
until September Is or later).
Y. o. dust will kill the adult flies if
it touches them. 1t may be sprinkled
through the hair of the cattle with ad-
vantage, for the flies will not remain
where it is long enough to bite; but it
must be renewed every 2 or 3 days
to prove effective. Kerosene emul-
sion is also fatal to the flies. The
most successful method is to destroy
the Larvae This may be done by throw
ing spadeful of lime upon each COW
dung, and as the cattle usually congre-
gate at some particular place during
the heat of the day, when most of the
eggs are deposited, IL is comparatively
easy to destroy NEST of the larvae by
this method. Orange Judd Farmer.

Austrptian Fruit Growers.

Description of the Method Employed ~
Austreiian Fruit Growers.
The following account of an Austria.
lian method of drying apples is not
without its lessons to American fruit
growers:
'"There is no doubt that the artificial
process of drying apples is the most ex-
peditious, and makes the best color
where little sulphur is used, but at
the same time the sun-dried apples
have the best flavor, and are best for
home use on that account The appa
ratus is simply an ordinary table
twelve feet long (but it can be made OF
any size) and four feet wide The sido
boards are put on nearly flush with the
top.
"One feature of the arrangement is
that from the ends YOU can draw out
two long trays of the whole length of
the table, with legs at the end to sup
port them, thus increasing the surface
to nearly three times. Round the top
of each tray or drawer is small ledge,
tackled on to keep the slices from fall
ing off. Over the top are a few light
movable rafters and ridge pole, and
there is light drill cover which fits
over them and ties round the table
under the drawers, so as to cover all
up secure at night, or if shower
comes on. Two other drawers could
be made if required, to pull out side
ways.
with the aid of an American corer,
parer and slicer you can get through a
great many apples in short time, and
the cores and skins can be dropped
| into bucket and given to the pigs; or
they will make excellent jelly, If you
are SO disposed The slices must be
stirred pretty often, and when quite
dry hung up in scrim bags for a month
or more, when you can press them into
dry casks or boxes, and you have then
good store of wholesome food for
home use.
Care must be taken against rain or
| damp, as in hot weather drying fruit
is more apt to spoil than in the cooler
and more breezy atmosphere of the
following months, and you will find
the morning the best time to gather
and slice the apples, as those cut in the
afternoon are much more apt to spoil.
Apples should not be too green when
sliced, or they are apt to be very acid,
and require more sugar as well: and
they should not be too ripe, or they will
| spoil-nor should they have any bruises
on them. Perfect apples, just approach
ing ripe, are the best, but very rain
| samples can be made even out of w;E3d.

THE HORN FLY.
Description OF the Troublesome Insect
and How TO Fight 1t.

Description OF the Troublesome Insect
and How TO Fight IT.
The horn fly (see our illustration) is
n native of Europe, but has been found
in the eastern part of the United States
for the past four or five years, and has
proved very troublesome especially in
the states along the Atlantic. Though
it has not appeared in the west it is
well to be prepared for its attacks. Ac-
cording to Prof. II. Osborn in Bulletin
10 of the Iowa experiment station the
insect received its name from the habit
of clustering upon the horns of cattle
to rest The flies are scarcely 4 of an
inch in length and closely resemble
small horse flies. 1t is in the adult
form that they are troublesome. They
alight upon the cattle, especially along
the back, puncture the skin, and feed
upon the blood The damage they do
consists not only in the loss of blood but
in the irritation which their presence
causes. The female deposits her eggs
during the warmer hours of the day in

The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1891-09-05

Mr.. William Ogilvie, of Vernoa, Wis,
has made practice for some years OF
sowing rye in his cornfelds the last
time he went through them with the
cultivator. By the time the corn was
ready to cut up the rye was ready to
pasture, and just as soon as the corn
was in the shock sheep were turned in.
Last fall Mr.. Ogilvie pastured 1,5O0
lambs on the ''robber crop" which he
otherwise would have been unable to
maintain on his farm. In addition, Mr..
Ogilvie says that when snow flew the
lambs were as forward in condition as
other lots have been with him in Feb
ruary, after spell of generous feed
ings. The rye did not seem to suffer
from the heavy pasturing.' The follow
ing spring Mr. Ogilvie's entire stock
was turned out on the rye and got six
weeks good grazing before the grass
was properly fit to carry them. When
this time came the rye was turned
under, and together with the droppingS
of the animals has proved a magniti-
cent fertilizer, as the splendid crops on
the fields now show.
