ROTATION OF CROPS.
To Plan Good system Is Evidence o
High Intelligence.

~ Atth ~ opbh stem - AsNAttHNC VI
High Intelligence.
The theory on which a rotation Of
crops is advised by the most successful
agriculturists is based on the fact that
the demands made upon the soil for
plant food by vegetation, while nearly
alike in important particulars, are not
the same with all kinds in degree.
Thus some crops require one element
in abundance with comparatively little
Of others. Manifestly, if crops are plant
ed in such rotation that succeeding
one naturally requires but little of
what former one has drawn upon
largely, it will in most cases be better
than to permit the former to succeed
itself. In this way "A different crop
whose wants will be mainly supplied
by the elements that remain in greater
plenty, may be raised with but little or
no help from the one element most inn
portant for the crop preceding.
To successfully plan good system
of rotation, which may be kept up with
the least soil exhaustion, is evidence of
a high order of farming, and involves
more than ordinary knowledge of the
constituents of the soil and the wants
of crops. Again, some crops are almost
wholly exhausting, being ch lefty car
ried off, while others, like the clovers,
derive much fertility from the atmos-
phere, which is afterward acquired by
the soil through the decay of their
roots and stubble. No formula for ro-
tation can be given that will be of gem
eral application when so much depends
on the present condition of soil, but
the idea of rest and recuperation
through judicious succession of diff
ferent crops should never be lost sight
of by farmer who would be successful
inhis ca lling.-Colman' Rural World.

But before that fortunately, we had
captured the Jephton coruet band led
by Professor Giessen, for our celebra-

by Bugleville, and, naturally, when
Buglevilles emissary went To engage
the band and found himself a day too

considerably eXasperated. To get an
other band they would have to send far

THINNING ONIONS.
The New Method of TranspIanting Not
Very Successful.


Some onion growers do not thin
onions at all. The result is at harvest
time they have a large amount of
onions too large for sets and not large
enough 70 be salable. Without sowing
the seed pretty thick we cannot get the
desirable full and even stand. This
gives US the less desirable feature Of a
large surplus OF plants 1t is no
child's play to cultivate and weed
onions and TO work over patch where
the plants in many places are
from six 10 twelve inches apart is labor
and money lost 1t is much better to
SOW the seed reasonably thick and thin
ont the surplus plants This is an i'm
portant point and should be properly
done.
Every plant that is not required to
make the crop is a useless consumer Of
the plant food in the soil and is prac-
tically weed. II is just as important
to remove the surplus plants at an
early period of growth as it is to re-
move weeds. 1t requires rich soil, well
manured, to profitably grow onions,
and it is not wise to attempt TO grow
them on any other kind of ground. On
such soil the plants may stand SO that
when the onions are full grown they
will touch or almost touch each other.
The kind must be taken into consid-
Grafton. as some kinds grow twice as
large as others. The rows should be

found that it makes but little differ
ence in regard TO the size, whether they
are twelve or sixteen inches apart. In
the new method of tranSplanting we
do away with the task of thinning land
wedding to some extent and also get
an even stand. However, the new
method may not be very profitable after
all, as it is not always attended with sue
cess. We have lost fully one-half of our
plants this year. In few days after
they came up they tumbled down fiat IN
