Winter Oats at the North.

Farmers of the south are not to con-
tinue to monopolize the growing of Win
ter oats as now. 1t Will be a surprise to
many to learn that they are successfully
cultivated-though on small scale-in
central New York, at a latitude of 10 y
degrees, which is north of the northern
most point of the state of Pennsylvania.
There are many points III their favor
and but few against They can be sown
in fall, when wheat and rye are and
thus relieve the ensuing spring work Of
this pressure, and this is a great point
gained should the opening Of spring be
late
These OATS sown after corn or pota-
toes, cover and protect what would 9TH
erwise be nude soil, and the roots pre-
vent washing Of the soil by rains. They
furnish green feed late in the fall, for
they do better to be pastured off than if
not. There is great gain i'll seed. These
require but three pecks to the acre,
while spring oats require a seeding Of
two to three bushels. Winter oats
"stool" or tiller remarkably. Given
room and a fertile soil, single grains
throw up from 10 to 20 stalks, which
bear large, well filled heads They have
a stiff straw, stand up we'll and seem to
be much more productive than spring
oats. In weight they are not remark
able, but fully up to the standard Of 32
pounds to the measured bushel They
ripen two or three weeks earlier than
spring oats and may sometimes crowd
the wheat harvest to gather them i'll sea-

A Good Straw Stack,

Now that thrashing is done by ma
chinery, unless the farmer is more than
usually careful about the stack, the
straw is thrown together in the easiest
way to get rid of it. The stack soon
becomes one sided and fills with water,
so that the feeding value of the straw is
destroyed. TO make a really good stack
American Cultivator says that there
needs to be as many men on the stack as
are required to get the grain in the straw
to the machine. They will have the
dirty part of the job, but it will not be
hard work. Most Of it will consist in
tramping the straw down on all sides,
so as to maintain a proper balance
With the middle Of the stack always
full and the whole pressed down by fire.
quent tramping, no rainfall can enter
the stack, and it will keep almost as
well as if it had been matched. 1t is
very important to have stack settle
properly that the chaff should be evenly
distributed through the whole stack, in
stead of being left under the carrier, as
it always is if there is insufficient help
in stacking.

ern Cemetery" and during its discussion
the odd fact developed that one of the
greatest stumbling blocks in the path of
the superintendent is the cemetery dead
beat " who is as live and troublesome in
the walks Of death as the "deadbeat" in
other walks of life. He buys lot on
credit inters his dead therein and then re
fuses TO pay. The association decided that
the only manner in which to deal success
fully with the cemetery deadbcat was To
insist upon payment before interment

managing a cemetery is the mutual plan,
by which every lot owner is IA member of

The mayors Of great many silent cities

organization known as the Association of
superintendent of American Cemeteries,
and their eighth annual meeting was held
for the purpose of exchanging ideas and
discussing plans for the improvement of
the silent cities of the dead that are in
their charge. The idea of forming an as
ISOLATION of humanity's last landlords orig
mated with Charles Nichols, superin-

century woman was a rarity "a few years

Despite these athletic achievements,
however, Miss Clark is no hcadstrong, I'M

can shoot and fish, and who is not only an

Miss Clark is the daughter y d.. J.

outdoor sports. Her hunting costume is
simple, sensible and unconventional Her
outer clothing is of canvas, the skirt hare
