ABOUT EARLY SLIDING.
Importance OF Getting the seed Into Sol
Under Favorable Conditions.

Importance OF Getting the seed Into Soil
Under Favorable Conditions
One of the principal advantages il
getting the spring crops in early Is
that the plants, having better oppor.
tunity TO get well established, are in q
much better condition to withstand the
hot, dry weather of summer. Plants
that are stunted in the early stages Of
growth never fully recover, aud seed
sown under unfavorable conditions will
nearly always send up a weak I'M
thrifty plant, whose defects after treat
ment will entirely overcome.
With nearly 81 spring crops, es-
pecially in the field, earliness is quite
an item in securing the best growth
and yield, yet it is rarely good economy
to risk slow, poor termination of the
seed and an unthrifty start TO grow in
order to plant early. Allowing seed &c
remain in the ground or planting under
unfavorable conditions, so that they
terminate slowly, causes more or less
loss of vitality that, when the best
growth and yield are desired, it is best
to avoid. Under present conditions if
a fair proft is realized good yield is
necessary and in many cases a fair
yield can be made to return fair profit
while light yield will be made at a
positive loss. Hence it is important to
take every precaution to secure the
best growth and yield in order to lessen
the cost and increase the profits
These things are important: Good
seed carefully planted in thoroughly
prepared soil so as to insure quick.
vigorous termination and growth and
a good even stand. A failure in either
of these respects will affect the yield.
At the start it is best to take every
precaution to plant under as favorable
conditions as possible, and, with such
crops as require it, give thorough cul-
tivation.
In order to lessen the necessity for
attempting to work the soil wet or to
plant under unfavorable conditions the
best plan is to make all of the prepar-
ations possible in advance. Get every
thing ready SO that when the soil is in
condition TO work the seeding may be
pushed along rapidly. 1t is only in ex-
ceptional cases that it will pay to at
tempt to work the soil wet 1t will
nearly always pay to delay the work a
few days until the soil is sufficiently
dry. With good drainage in the spring
one or two days will make very con-
siderable difference. One working of
the soil when wet will so injure it
that whole seasons work afterwards
will failentirely to remove the effect
planting the seed with the soil not in
good condition will seriously affect the
growth and yield of the crop.
Sow or plant as early as possible, but
have the soil in a good filth, and get
the seed into the soil under favorable
conditions. This is the first step to-
wards securing a good yield, and much
depends upon the way it is done.-St

What Farmers Ought to Do.

The remedy for the farmer seems to
be to reduce the cost of production as
much as possible, by striving to pro-
duce the greatest amount with the
least labor, and to carefully watch the
de mands of the market for such prod
ucts as it is not oversuppied with, and
learn how to produce them of the best
quality at the least cost. With this,
let him abandon the trying to grow
such crops as are not adapted to his
soil, or as he does not understand the
management of, and thus avoid help.
ing to fill the market with the inferior
products which must be sold at unre-
munerative prices. Let him diversity
his crops more by striving to produce
as much as possible of that which he
will need for home consumption, and
if favorable season gives a surplus to
sell, look upon that as profit, no mat
ter how small the price at which it
sells. That which he grows himself
and uses in his own family will be just
as profitable at low price as if it could
have been sold for twice as much

FACTS FOR FARMERS

WINTER prices for the products of
the dairy and poultry yard have been
such as to encourage everybody who
can do SO to increase the supply.
WITH fair to good draught horses
selling in Chicago at S135 to 5000 and
in good teams at 1928 to S237 each, it
appears that there is still money to be
made in raising good horses
THERE is money in squashes. They
will sell at S25 t. $50 per ton and are
easily raised for IS to $40. Their re-
moval from the farm impoverishes it
less in proportion to the returns than
almost any other vegetable crop.
THE price of farm land is going to be
higher. The unoccupied lands of Uncle
Sans domain will soon tie used up, and
the people are growing land hungry.
Those who can hold on had better not
sacrifice in order to sell This is true in
a general way; of course, it is not of
universal application.
THE large farm has had its day and
has got to go. Taxes are too high to
pay on unproductive lands. Small
areas and the intensive system of farm
ing will do more to elevate the con-
dition of American farmers than un-
limited legislation. Intensive farm
ing calls for close attention to all mat
tiers, which only good head can give.
Let the boys have the benefit Of care
full training.
CORN, hay and idleness Tor moderate
exercisel will bring the horses out in
the spring fat, sleek and handsome,
but soft, short winded and liable to
collie Better sell half the corn and
buy bran and feed them as much as
possible on bran, oats and clean,
bright wheat straw, with little corn
and hay for variety, and give them all
the exercise possible. 1t is unkirdness
to keep a horse in idl eness.

become formidable Owing to its size
and nspicuous coIoring the larvae are
readily seen and can be destroyed on
the few vines usually found in the
farmers garden, if they become too
numerous. They have the habit of
dropping to the ground when APP
preached, the same habit being men,
toned by DR. .Lintner in regard to Ally
pia
If the ground underneath the vines
is free from weeds and litter they can
thus be easily destroyed Eudryas
grata is--in common with the majority
of the insect world-subject to para
site attack, noticeable among which is
tachina fly, in appearance about like
a housefy.
In this locality there is but one an
nual brood, the Larvae attaining their
growth about the middle of August
They then descend to the ground and
either enter the earth to pupate, or, if
pieces of board, wood, sticks or trellis
are in the vicinity they often gnaw into
them a cavity large enough to admit
half of the body, covering the outer
half with sawdust stuck together with
a gummy secretion.
Packard mentions this wood boring
habit as occasional, but in my expert
ence it has been more cor, non than
the usual (Packard) method of enter
ing the ground. Especially is this true
of confined Larvae, which in nearly
every instance appeared restless and
uneasy until provided with pieces of
wood in which to transform. They
remain in their snug wood and saw
dust or earthen abodes until the fol-
lowing June, when the beautiful
moths emerge to lay eggs for another
generation. Prairie Farmer.

THE WOOD NYmPH.
A Beautiful Insect which Is said 10 Thrlv,
ON Grape Wines.

a Beautliul Insect " hlch Is >2ld TO Thrive
on Grape Vines
This has often been mentioned as an
enemy to grape vines. usually in con-
nection with Alypia Octomaculata, an
allied genus. on account of the very
close resem blance between the larve
o. the two moths.
The moth of the Eudryas grata is
among the most beautiful of the Lepi-
doptera, with its pleasing contrasts of
white, soft brown, purplish, green and
yellow. Perfect specimens-unless bred
are seldom seen, however, as it is a
night fiier.
The eggs and Larvae are also very
pretty, the former being delicately
sculptured and the latter ornamented
with alternating bands of blush and
red orange, the blush bands marked
off and the orange bands dotted with
black.
The food plant of the Larvae is usually
grape, varied occasionally by ampelop-
sis or Virginia creeper.
1t is seldom abundant enough to do
much injury, though, according to DR..
Lintner Alypia often proves a serious
pest while Eudryas is rare. Here, in
Iowa, Alypia is very seldom met with
while Eudryas is comparatively com
mon and in favorable seasons might

Cultivation of forests.

A forest is like any other crop in its
growth and development. After it
reaches maturity it begins to decay,
and if not interferred with, growth and
decay will just about balance each
other, and no progress or increase Of
crop can follow. The true way is to
cut the timber as fast as it is fit, thin
ming exactly the right distance apart
Il, may be, permitting the young tim
Der to come as fast as the natural tim
Der is removed 1t would take mang
years to geta forest in just the right
conditions: but when once fairly
started, no other known crop can be
made to yield So large a profit Farm,

A COW giving a big mess Of milk has
an enormous appetite, and it is an i'm

we are not feeding for fat in the COW,
