morning for an extensive hunt in
the vicinity of Germania Basin. It
is needless 70 say that the boys
went loaded for bear. They must
bear in mind that there are plenty
OF bear in the bare mountains.
Keep a sharp lookout, boys, lest
the bears bear down upon you and

FERTILIZERS FOR CORN.
Conclusions Drawn from Results

Potash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid
are recognized as the essential clements
In all fertilizers and manures. Often it
occurs with certain soils and crops that
only one OF these ingredients is essential.
At the Kentucky state agricultural ex
pertinent station the results OF trials
with fertilizers on corn made it appear
that only in those cases whore potash
was chief ingredient was there any
profitable use Of commercial fertilizer
On corn
At the Hatch experiment station, Mas
sachusetts, si:lilar trials were made last
season, showing very much the Same re-
suits under different conditions of soil
and climate. la the Massachusetts c3
periments it was found that while soiis

ash more often OF more largeiy proves

and stover, bat its effect is greater cu
the latter. 1t Is thought that tho de-
iciency of many soils in potash may be
accounted for from the fact thu. barn

arediept, and fasme IS who nsa fertilizers
have usually bought those rich in phos.

Taking all the experiments of the sta

Is as follows: For potash, lib bushels;
slower. 1905 pounds; for nitrogen, Al
bushels: slower $50 pounds; for phos.

follows: Hard corn, $40 times; stover,

average Increase was respectively: HarI

thus becomes evident that potash pro-
duces relatively more effect upon the
yield of slower than upon that of grain.
and that it greatly exceeds either nitro
gen or phosphoric acid in this respect.
Next to potash in its effect upon slower
ranks nitrogen.
Of the following two mixtures either

when failures had become SO common in
this state as greatly to discourage many
from attempting to raise it. Not less
than. 200 pounds Of fertilizer should he

wheat to get COED start and acquire a

SubsOiling.

According to recent report from the
Kansas state board OF agriculture the
theory and practice Of subsoiiing has
been thoroughly and practically tested
at Medicine Lodge. Kan. during the
past summer by the United States gov
eminent on grounds leased at that place
for experiment purposes About forty
acres were plowed and SUBSIDIZED to a
depth of eighteen inches and planted to
cane. Another piece Of ground was
plowed the ordinary depth. but not sub
soiled. and--also planted to cane of the
same variety. Both fields received the
same care and cultivation The grounds
which were SUBSIDIZED yielded about
| eighteen tons of cane to the acre: while
on the other gronad. simply plowed. the
best yield was only about ten tons.
| Mr.. Mohler, the secretary Of the state
board, recommends that farmers who
intend to sow alfalfa should by all means
subsoil. If the soil is upland it is all the
more important. This plant sinks its
roots down from five to ten or more feet
into the subsoil, provided the hard and
dry condition of the subsoil allows. 1t
is this deep roofing which enables alfalfa
to endure the severest drought, hot winds
or any other calalnitous thing that comes
along When good stand of this plant
is secured it will last for a generation OF
more, yielding valuable crops each year

Wood Ashes as a Fertilizer.

The uss OF wood ashes as fertilizer
should be more generally understood.
Hard wood ashes are much richer in
potash than soft wood ashes and are
relatively more valuable Leached wood
ashes are hardly worth more than the
labor of spreading on the land as a rule,
but on light sandy soil they have a
tendency to compact, which is an aid to
its physical condition, but it does not act
as manure, Unleached wood ashes is
almost d special fertilizer for all fruit
crops and only needs the addition of a
little heterogeneous manure to make it
complete. They should never be mixed
with such heterogeneous manure as hen
manure and other animal excrements.
for they start chemical action in conse-
1uence, the nitrogen is thrown off in the
form Of ammonia and is wasted. Un-

Bee Collars.

At beekeepers' meeting, where the
subject of wintering bees came up for
discussion, DR.. Miller, who wants air for
his bees. expressed a preference for q
large cellar-one that gives sufficient
space to place the hives without crowd
ing. In his opinion the depth under
ground should be about eight feet. The
entrance should be ON the side where the
general prevailing winds would not
come. II on a side hill, let the entrance
be where you can walk in on the level
1t should have double doors.
President Taylor, commenting on Dr.
Millers remarks, said that the sun
would penetrate through doors more
readily than through the sides Of the
building, and the door, therefore, should
not be where the sun would shine upon
it worry long The north or east would
ba preferable and avoid the sun.
DR.. Mason, who considers that pure
air is moro needed in early spring than
in winter, gave the dimensions Of his
cellar, which are IA by 20 feet. In this
he has wintared fifty colonies.
