At recent meeting of Manitoba agricuL
tural society a member discussed the proper
time to harvest the wheat crop. He said the
great trouble with the crop of last year was
that it had been allowed to get too ripe before
being cut. This gave it a worse color, q much
thicker bran, and also had the tendency to
shrivel the grain. Mr.. Mclean strongly adj
vised farmers to cut their grain when 1t is in
the dough, week or 10 days before it is dead
ripe, and let it stand in the shock till it hard
ems. By this means frosts and storms will be
avoided, the grain will be brighter and heavier,
and give better yield of flour. To prevent
the soft grain from becoming hardened too sud-
denly by the sun, the shocks should be properly
capped with sheaves, and the experience of the
farmers present was that if the tops of the cap
sheaves were laid toward the west they would
remain on but if the butts were placed in this
position they would be sure to be blown away
by the wind.

good method of destroying cockleburs,
where fields are thoroughly infested with
them, is to seed to grass clover and use il
for meadow for few years. When it is plowed
again and crops, such as corn, potatoes ETC., are
planted, go over it with hoe in late Summer
and Autumn and cut them out. A foothold
once gained, heroic treatment is required.

The low price of wheat has called the AZ
tention of feeders to it's value as a stock feed.
The finest lot of mutton carcasses the writer
ever saw were those of lot of sheep fsttened
on wheat In the Northw west the extensive
sheep-feeders rely mainly on wheat screenings.
At the Experiment Station in England wheat
is considered the best single stock food avail
able. To sheep it is fed whole, to other stock
it is either ground or boiled.
An Indiana feeder who has fed it to hogs on
an extensive scale, says that wheat fed to Al
cont hogs will bring 81 bushel in the form OF
pork. Another man says that instead of buy
ing bran at SO ton, he is grinding and mix
ing two parts wheat with one of oats for his
pigs and calves and colts, and they are doing
nicely on it.
Prof. Henry, of the Wisconsin Experiment.
Station. says that wheat is the best single stock
food available. An English Experiment Sta
ton declares wheat the cheapest feed in Eng
land for sheep. 1t should be fed whole to
sheep but, as a rule, for other animals it should
be ground coarse or boiled.
Prof. Henry places the feeding value Of
wheat in excess of corn. He says that with
hogs brought in from clover pasture, well
grown but Iank and "full of snap" busheI
of wheat will easily make from II to IA pounds
of gain if the fattening period is not too long
continued. He thinks that for the purpose of
adding variety and for nourishing young ami
mails its value may at times double that of corn.
Corn and wheat can be fed well together. and
the wide-awake farmer will not long hesitate
to get out of the old rut of feeding corn no
matter what its worth. and selling the wheat
though the price is less than cost of produc-
ton.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in Soc and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.
