Wheat Experiments.

Experiments in various methods
OF seeding wheat have been conducted
for a series OF years at the Ohio
experiment station, with the following
results:
In the average of four years expert
ment, wheat covered one inch or less
has produced at the rate of "a
bushels per acre; that covered two
inches has produced 35 bushels, and
that covered three inches "a bushels.
Judging from smaller number of
experiments it does not seem
advisable to SOW deeper than three
inches.
In the average of six years, wheat
sown with the roller-press d rlll has
yielded about eight per cent more
than that sown with the ordinary
drill. More or less increase has
followed the roller-press in almost
every season, but a single trial has
given results unfavorable to the use
OF the common roller after seeding.
Broadcast wheat has this year
yielded about the same as that drill
ed; but in the average OF five years
the product from broadcast seed is
considerably smaller than from the
same quantity OF seed drilled.
The results OF seven years expert
ments point clearly to the latter part
OF September or first OF October as
the most favorable season for sowing
wheat on this farm
A single experiment, made this
year, fails to show any advantage in
favor OF cross drilling over sewing the
same quantity Of seed in the ordinary
manner.
No larger crop has been produced
this year from mixed seed OF two va.
rieties sown separately.
The land upon which these expert
ments were made lies in the valley Of
| the Olentangy, one OF the largest
branches of the Scioto. The soil is a
yellow loan, part first and part
second bottom. It is either naturally
undetermined with gravel or artific.
tally drained with tiles, and it's av.
erage yield OF wheat for thirteen years
has been over twentysix bushels pei
acre, or an annual acreage of about
thirty acres.

A Few Hints,

When duck eggs are set under a hen
it is best to make the nest on the
ground.
Ducks grow faster than chickens,
are free from vermin and less liable to
disease.
Always have the nests so that the
hens can walk into them rather than
jump down.
Feed for growth or for eggs and
not merely for subsistence if poultry is
to pay profit.
Buy your dairy stock Of honorable
breeders and then hold them response
BILE for their representations.
The heifer calf from good COW is
worth keeping until it can be determ-
med whether or not the dam has
transmitted her good qualities.
If the men do the milking it is a
good thing to impress upon them the
fact that water is better than milk to
wash their hands in. Cleanliness is
next to goodness.
Many farmers would make their
dairies much more profitable if they
would give some hard study to the
nature OF different grasses, with a
view to improving their pastures.
During the first year the feeding Of
the heifer should be such as would
tend toward development of frame
rather than to the laying on of flesh.
Grass and roots and bulky forage
will be of more value than grain or
other rich concentrated foods.

A somnambultst's Freaks.

A Georgia man, who was not aware
OF the fact that he was addicted to
walking in his sleep, began to miss his
clothes on awaking in the morning.
-Four suits disappeared mysteriously,
when he was constrained to offer a.
reward Of $25 for the detection OF the
thief This prompted his son to in
vestigate. He saw his sire arise and
dress himself and proceed to mill
pond. Here the old gentleman would
disrobe, stuff his clothes in a hollow
log as far as they would go, and then
go in bathing. When he emerged he
would search vainly for his clothes,
finally going home without them.
The young detective finished from the
hollow log every suit that had been
lost and duly received the promised
reward.

Indirect Fertilizers,

There are substances that in them
selves do not furnish the plant any
needed ingredient for growth, but
when applied to the soil assist ma
terially in augumenting the crop. One
of the best illustrations OF this class Of
fertilizers is common salt. Lime is
another substance rarely lacking in
the soil, but when added assists in set
ting free other substances that are
much needed by the growing plants,
that otherwise would not have be-
come available for the crop. Water
is added in irrigation not as g. fertil-
izer but because it is the great solvent
in nature and the vehicle OF transfer
of the various substances that 90 to

Cheese and Butter Auctions,

The latest suggestionfor helping dali
ny farmers to dispose Of their produce
on good terms and to bring it into
prominent competition with foreign
goods is to establish auction marts in
London and all the great manufac-
turing towns, for the purpose OF hold
ing weekly or daily sales OF consign-
ments Of cheese and butter from our
dairy districts. 1t is contended that
in this way one OF the advantages
which foreign dairy produce possesses
over our town, viz, that retailers al
ways know where to go for a supply
in any quantity, will to some extent
be removed, and that if farmers only
support these places properly, and
are willing to make little sacrifice at
the onset in the shape OF insufficient
returns until the mart gets thorough
ly established, and retailers begin
regularly to resort to it, an opening
would be made for their goods which
would be Of the greatest service to
them. Perhaps the advantage OF
such auctions to butter makers would
be greater than in the case Of cheese,
for the sale of which there are means
already available. At the same time,
if the thing answered for the sale OF
butter, it could not fail to be of some
service to the cheesemaker also, who
might try it with small lots first, as
the same buyers who went there for
butter would also, from the nature of
their business, be buyers of cheese

Ammonia in Manure, a Mistaken
Prevalent Opinion.
The prevalent idea that manure
contains much ammonia is, according
to Bells Messenger, England, without
any foundation. Manure contains the
elements of which ammonia is formed
during decomposition, viz, nitrogen
and hydrogen; but as decomposition
is a very slow process, the ammonia
is only very slowly evolved. AS it is
produced, it is in the form of gas,
which is dissolved in the water exist
ing in the manure or it combines with
the abundant carbonic acid evolved
during the decomposition and forms
carbonate of ammonia. It is very
rare that ammonia can be detected es-
Gaping from a manure heap. The
fetid odor of a manure pile is not
caused by ammonia, but by COM
pounds of sulphur and carbon, the
same as those devolved by decaying
eggs and rotting cabbages. The am
nonia OF manure is very slowly olsen
gagged, requiring year or more before
it is all produced and evolved, and as
the soil absorbs it freely, there is
scarcely any danger of any loss OF this
valuable part of the manure as it is
commonly used. The pungent odor OF
a horse stable is caused by the escap-
ing ammonia, and farmers loose more
OF this element OF manure in this way
in one warm night from an unclean
horse stable, than from their manure
heaps in a year. A pound Of ammo
MIA in manure is worth in England II
cents, and a tun of manure produces
only IL lbs of it. s

20 Cne QarkeneQ ChamDer.
The next moment I had uttered a
loud cry, tottered and fallen helpless
upon my kness, at the foot of the
easel.
There, upon a small canvas, was a
sketch. in oil, colored and drawn with
a master-hand: It was a study of
two persons, in the act OF leave-tak-
ing. They stood bodily in the fore
ground of the picture. A tall, dark,
handsome man, the counterpart of
the figure in my Chicago picture. with
the same sad and striking expression
on his face with the brave soul shin
ing through it.; woman, the very
reproduction Of this conception and
execution Of my sleeping moments,
on whose tender face, the trace of re-
cent tears was marvellously delineat-
ed, and about whose low white fore
head and over whose charming eyes
her hair, Of Titianesque red, was
blown by the breeze, leant with one
hand upon the mans shoulder and the
other hand clasped III his. I looked at
the title, and amazement grew upon
amazement. It was also the very
counterpart of my own. The pic
ture was named Lies Adieux."
The voice Of the officer aroused me:
They say there is a romantic story
connected with that picture. You

A Change for the Better.

Scrub farmer, feeding nothing but
hay and straw in a cold barn,
what have you to say to the facts
given by Mr.. j. D. Smith, ofDelaware,
county, N. Y, who, by changing his
system of farming, made the same
farm produce 1904 pounds OF butter,
when $3.50 pounds was the ex-
tent when he ived-as many are liv-
ing yet-in the clark ages" AS a
rule, too, the men who have COWS that
produce for them $50 pounds OF farm
butter per annum, don't get more
than a ''York shilling" per pound for
it; when by the time he learns how to
make a COW yield $50 or 800 pounds
per annum, has also learned to get
two ''York shillings" per pound for it
largely because he makes the most
of it, when butter is scarce and high
The butter income OF the same farm
on the first basis is $2S1.25 on the
latter basis, $2,O76.OO. Borrowing
money-even OF the government, at 2
per cent-to conduct the first kind Of
farming, would bring a man to bank
ruptcy at the last.-Hoard's Dairy

away. Leave on the ground IN wind
rows until the tops have all dried
down, or if rain should threaten, take
to an airy loft Or barn floor and
spread thinly, until fully cured.
Then sort, removing all remnants OF
tops, ETC., and try to sell them at an
early opportunity, which is much
better than to attempt keeping them
over winter and running the risk OF
losing part OF the crop by sprouting,
rotting, or freezing. But if you are
bound to try wintering, you should
have a storage room that can
be kept at a temperature near
the freezing point-say from
35 degrees to 45 degrees Fab
renheit. Put the bulbs in rather
open crates, and keep we'll
aired and dry. Onions can also be
stored in pits, like potatoes, only
guard against heating. 1t is better to
have them freezing than to get too
warm. The question Of "best'' COM
mercial fertilizer for onions can only
be answered in a relative manner.
When ground is very rich and abund-
antly supplied with minerals potash
and phosphorus,) nitrate OF soda
alone may be the best and cheapest
fertilizer. In other cases ashes and
nitrate Of soda may be the best; and
a good, high-grade, complete manure,
such as our leading fertilizer manu-
facturers offer under the name Of
special potato or special onion,
or general vegetable manure, is
usually safe to apply even in
pretty large doses a ton or
more per acre.

"TRUTH CRUSHED TO EARTH WILL RIS1
AGAIN"

'TRUTH CRUSHED TO EARTH WILL RISE
AGAIN.
To the Editor of the New Mexican.
Sir: Unfortunately truth has often been
crushed to earth and falsehood has tri-
umphed, but experience teaches us that
such triumphs are short lived, and that
truth ever energies from it's temporary
obscurity more luminous and more pow.
erful to confound and overwhelm its
enemies. Our political history contains
many attempts to mislead public opinion
and for the time being such attempts have
been successful, but when the people
become convinced of the advantage
which has been taken of their trusting
natures, the recoil is terrible, and de-
struction swift and certain is the fate of
the men and party who have so deceived
them. One of these brief triumphs has
been achieved by the free trade DEM
ocracy in the late elections by means as
unworthy as ever men employed to gain
a wicked end. The passage Of the Nc
Klnley tariff bill was made the occasion
by the enemies of American labor to
inaugurate campaign of falsehood such
as had never before disgraced our country.
This was done in the most reckless
manner. Dishonest merchants joining
hands with dishonest politicians declared
that the above bill had raised the prices
of their wares and thus robbed their Gus.
toners in the most shameless manner.
That they were not nj ore successful was
because said customers doubling the truth
of the assertions, that prices had advanced
because of the increased duties in said bill,
investigated for themselves and found that
in many cases duties had been actually
lowered. The New York Evening Post,
one OF the most INSCRIPTIONS Mugwump
organs, iterated and reiterated that deal
ers in certain classes of goods had been
compelled to raise the prices of such goods,
while in the same issues OF said paper ad-
vertsements by twelve Of the leading
dealers in the goods specified declared
that such prices had not been and would
not be raised. In spite Of all these de-
clarations by their advertisers, the writers
of the Post insisted that they were right
and that the men who sold the goods were
wrong, and thus the TRADE of lying was
continued until the end was accomplished.
A few weeks have gone by
and we hear no more of advance prices.
The merchants who for moment were
enabled to deceive tkeir customers, soon
found that honesty was the best policy, y
and are only too glad now to get back te
their old prices. They soon found thai
their honest neighbors were getting theil
trade and that the American people can
only be hoodwinked for very short time
For the benefit of any of your readers
who may have been victimized in Sant'
Fe, for l believe the trick was tried to
limited extent here, I submit the follow
ing scale of prices quoted by the "Ameri
can Economist" from the "St. Paul Jour
