PROFITABLE SELLING.
As Important to Agricultural Success A.
Thorough Cultivation.


ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Selling of the various products and
stock to the best advantage is of as
much Importance as growing of them.
Often the farmer that sells well will
be able to realize profit where an
other will not. With quite a number
of products the difference of few
cents per pound or bushel will often
determine the question of profit or loss.
OF course, appearance and quality are
important items, and judgment as to
when it is best to sell must always be
used. One can keep posted as to the
probable supply and demand by read
ing the papers, and this will be great
help i'll determining whether or not it
is best to sell and when. In fact, an
intelligent farmer cannot afford to
farm without a good newspaper, so
that he may keep posted not only as to
methods of farming but also as to the
condition of the markets for his various
products. The risk of loss in selling is
too much for the average farmer to
take, as there are many buyers always
ready to take advantage of a sellers
ignorance, and failure to get all that
product is worth in the market is di-
rect loss that should always be avoided.
With the majority of products, whether
farm or stock, the time TO sell is when
the products are fully ready. 1t is only
in exceptional cases that the average
farmer can afford to run the risk of
loss by holding or storing for an adj
vance in price. Yet, at the same time,
every farmer should be able to sell
every product at the best price obtain
able.
Grow the best and then sell for the
best price is the way to get the worth
from the farm. Send the stuff to market
in the form that will command the best
price. Take every advantage to sen
we'll
If it is deemed best to store arrange
so that there be as little waste as pos
sible in handling and in storing, SO that
the risk of loss as damage will be
lessened as much as possible. In stor-
ing, as in selling, judgment must be ex-
ercised No rules can be laid down as
to the best times or manner of selling.
There are SO many conditions that
must be considered that the owner
must use his own Judgment, and it is
the exercise of this that determines the
ability to sell well.-St Louis Republic.

TO ESCAPE "FLY TIME"
Precautions to he Observed for the Abat-

Precautions to he observed TOT the ADAs-

The hard work and the heat of sum-

ner of multiplying. 1t is declared, on
good scientific authority, that the
swarms of summer are probably pro-
duced from few individuals that have
lived through the winter in protected
hooks, such as they can find in clothing,
behind picture frames and in various
corners of stuffed furniture or other
convenient hiding places. Scientific in
vestigation also has shown that the
eggs are laid in filth, and the young
hatch out there and thrive upon decay
matter. These facts surely give hint
as to the prevention of a large proper
portion of the swarms that infest ones
premises in summer. Any kind OF
manure near house Is sure to be
breeding spot for flies, for this is just
the place where they delight to lay
their eggs. The pigpen should not be
near the house, as is so often the case;
nor should piles of stable dressing be
allowed to accumulate when the stable
is near, or Joined to the house. Pals
of broken food and kitchen refuse are
frequently to be seen near the kitchen
door, or in an open shed adjoining the
kitchen, that attract all the flies within q
large radius. Let every place, where
flies could thus breed, and everything
that would attract them about the
door, be cleared away, and kept So and
the small number of these trou blesome
insects will occasion surprise, especially
II one is at some little distance from the
houses of neighbors, who are not thus
particular. Still better results will be
secured it, late in the fall, or during the
winter, a careful search be made for
flies that have gone into winter quarters.
Each one of these that is destroyed will
lessen the number for the following
summer. 1t is folly to suppose that
there will be entire freedom from the
annoyance even when the two points
mentioned, have been carefully attended
too, but it will be reduce to a minimum.

AZ destroys the delicate sensitiveness to
the bit which is most desirable in guild
ing a horse. DIR. Kitching says: IF
horse pulling a load has his head held
in by checl<-rein, he cannot throw his
weight into his collar, and is hindered
from giving his body that position
which is most natural and effective "
He goes on to speak of the consequent
strain of his limbs and muscles, and
the injury caused by the constrained
position of the head, whereby the
breathing and circulation are affected,
and the horse made restless, irrita BILE
and uncomfortable. He says: The
checll-rein inflicts unceasing torture
upon the animal in another way. BY
holding the head upwards, it puts the
muscles of the neck on a constant
strain. They become painfully uneasy
and tired, If the horse cannot bear it,
he rests the weight of his head upon
the rein, and his mouth is violently
stretched. Thus he only exchanges one
torment for another. To sum up in a
word, the check-rein lessons a horses
strength; brings on disease: keeps him
in pain: frets and Injuries his mouth,
and spoils his temper"

INTENSIVE FARMING.
The Kind of Cultivation Which Assures
Good Results.

The Kind of Cultivation Which Assures
Good Results.
AS the agricultural areas gradually
grow less in proportion to population,
not only must better systems be APP
piled, but more thoroughncss in all de-
partments of lan6 culture to obtain the
best results. This would imply smaller
farms with a larger proportion of
profit A writer upon the subject, re-
ferring particularly TO the south, says,
all over the country we see farmers who
are considering the advisability of rid
ding themselves of the large farm and
its attendant cares and expenses, and
devoting their energies to the better
cultivation of fe wer acres.
This is move in the right direction,
especially in the older and more thicllly
settled regions of the country. In many
places farm lands have reached value
where It is extremely difficult to make
the staple crops pay net return an
acre that will equal the interest upon
the investment. Such branches as will
give a higher return an acre are being
looked to, such as gardening and fruit
farming, high-class dairying, etc. The
only trouble with this new movement
is that some of the men who go into it
think that these branches can be con-
Quoted on the same broad lines and
principles that they have applied in the
management of the general farm. This
is grave error, and almost always
leads to disaster. II the farmer who is
thus changing his plans cannot make

practices also-in fact, to begin at the
beginning and study the new agricul-
ture which is comprehended in the
