The experiment stations do not
seem to agree on the exact value of
root crops for feeding purposes, but
they have established that they
have a greater value than can be
detected by chemical analysis.
Every farmer has straw in album
dance, and this is not highly es-
teemed as a food for stock, and is
not highly esteemed as food for
stock, and is often practically vast
ed SO far as its use for this purpose
is concerned. In many cases where
a supply of roots is available, straw
is available, straw can be fed to
great advantage in connection with
them, for while it is not capable OF
scientific demonstration we are sat
isfied from actual practice that
roots add to the digestive ability of
the animals to which they are fed,
and if a liberal supply of roots is
given them they will eat straw that
has been well taken care of with a
relish, and thrive nicely on them.
A crop of roots is easily raised
and they are the cheapest source OF
succulence possible to the average
farmer. 1t is to be hoped that they
will come into greater favor and be
more generally grown.

Farm Diaries.

There is a disposition on the part
of some of our dairy exchanges to
decry farm diaries and claim every
thing for the larger concerns. There
is no reason on earth why first
class gilt-edge butter should not be
produced on the farms of the coun-
try, and all attempts to belittle the
farm dairy is against the best in
terest of the farmers who make
dairying an object of special care.
We know of more than one farm
dairy where the very best of butter
is made and sold al much above
the market price, and this too,
without the aid of expensive ma
chinery and appliances. One farm
er whom we know follows the old
fashioned plan of shallow setting
and churns his butter in the old
dash churn, and does not even use
ice to cool his milk with, and yet
sells every pound of butter from IL
cows for Is cents per pound and
above, and never less than % cents.
This butter is made with scrupu-
lous care as to cleanliness and in
every operation in making. This
man might get more butter per.
haps by deep setting or using a
separator, but he could not make
it better than he does, and any one
can do as we'll.

FARM Notes.


For animal food, green cut bone
has come into prominence during
the past few years, and contains all
the elements for egg production
and meat forming, and is cheap
and easy to cut when one has ma
chine for the purpose.
A warm mash in the morning
composed of cracked corn, proven
der, wheat bran, ground beef scraps
scalded together and seasoned as
you would your own food for the
table; salt and pepper, and an oc-
casional dose of ground ginger dur
ing the coolest weather.
Exercise is the one thing need
full these short Winter days; and
while an outdoor run is not ad
visable when the ground is covered
with ice and snow, it is necessary
to have covered sheds or runs,
where the flocks can get the sun
and air, and yet be sheltered from
the wind and kept dry.
Fowls, to be comfortable and do
well, must have their crops well
filled at least by night fall every
day. To secure this bulk, and not
feed too much grain, is remedied
by giving some kind of green food
throughout the day. Raw cabbage,
beets, turnips etc, kept where they
can pick at them at their own
sweet will, or, better still, the Sec
ond crop of clover or rowan cut
short and steamed, is the best green
food we can give them
If people gave their poultry the
same care and attention that they
do their horses and cattle they
would get better results from them.
1t is not a wonder that eggs are
scarce during the holidays, when
we see the care the average flock of
hens receive at this season of the
year. When we find a flock that
is clean and well cared for, they
are owned by a person getting good
returns from them; and it's a poor
rule that won't work both ways,
even with a few chickens, as one
has said, Feed the hen and the
hen will feed YOU"

A Problem for wheat Growers.

The wheat growers of the United
States are confronted by a prob
lem of very great Importance.
This is how to grow wheat at a
profit in the face of the new com
petitors who have entered the mar
kets of the world recently. One of
the most formidable of these is the
Republic of Argentina in South
America, whose exports have rails
ed from 25,000,000 bushels in 1892
to a probable 100,000000 from the
harvest that will be reaped this
season. The immense shipments
of reaping machinery which are be-
ing sent to Argentina by American
manufacturers show that the farm
ers of that country expect to con-
tinue to grow wheat, and at present
prices they can well afford to do so,
for labor is cheap there, and the
wheat-growing districts being near
the sea-boards the freight charges
are not high. The mildness of the
country, the degraded condition of
labor, and the contiguity of the sea
all conspire to give the wheat
grower OF Argentina a great advan-
tage over the one in this country
With India increasing her exporta-
tions and other countries coming to
the front as producers of wheat, it
is time for American growers of
this cereal to begin seriously to
study how to produce wheat as
cheaply as possible. Wasteful, ex
pensive or extravagant methods
must he dropped, and economy and

Mulching Wheat.

Every Fall we see this subject
discussed for and against, and it
seems to be one that every one
must settle for himself. | believe
that when the seed bed is thorough
ly fined and the land is we'll drain
ed mulch will not do any good
for under such conditions the wheat
plant is not liable to be lifted out
by the action of the frost. A neigh
Dor of mine mulched his wheat
field with straw, but put it on so
thick that he was obliged to haul
it off in the Spring at considerable
expense claiming even then that he
was paid for his trouble. l have
found it to be profitable to spread
straw over portions of the field ex-
posed to northwest winds, but
where there is no exposure of this
kind 1 do not find any material in
crease in the yield. The best
mulch for wheat is a good coat of
well rotted manure, put on with a
spreader. This, and perfect tillage
and adequate drainage, will make
a crop, unless the conditions are
extremely unfavorable.
