A vital Question.

How to get most profit from our inn
mense crop of corn is now a vital ques-
tion with Texas farmers. No matter
how high the price may be, selling 1t
straight will not give the greatest
profit. The man who buys it must
have profit also. He divides the profit
with the farmer, but not in the middle.
The farmer in the transaction will get
the smaller pile every time. To get the
most profit from crop it must be all
utilized-the fodder and the husks, as
well as the grain. If, in addition to
the farmers profit in producing the
crop he can add the feeders profit. he
will be going at it right To do this
he must buy cattle or hogs If he has
has not raised enough, let HIM
buy steer or two, or enough to make
a car load; or the same with hogs But
in doing this he must exercise judg-
ment. Some steers and some hogs are
not worth buying Get stock that will
know what to do with food when they
get it-that can eat it at a profit. No
man can feed cattle or hogs as profita-
bly, as the farmer who grows the feed,
because thereis the pasture that would
otherwise be wasted, and there are
odds and ends that may be consumed
at home that could not be sold. When
farmers turn their attention to the con-
sumption as well as the production Of
stock food, they will begin to reap the
legitimate profits of their business. =

Keen Ducklines Dry.

II is claimed that the Pekin duck
will thrive we'll without ponds. 1t is
true that the ducklings can be more
easily raised away from ponds or
streams than when allowed to have
access thereto, but this due to the fact
that most of the ducklings are hatched
with incubators during the winter sea-
son. when the cold waters Of the pond
would chill them and cause loss.
Young ducks will thrive better if they
are kept away from the ponds until
they are well feathered; but despite
all claims in favor of the Pekin duck
as being adapted to dry locations, my
experience is that the adult ducks are
more contented when they have Q
pond. Like all aquatic birds, they en-
joy the water, and they will thrive on
on an open field away from water lex

best results when they have the privi-
leges of pond. Farm and Fireslde.

PLANTING TREES.
Twenty Rules to be Observcd to Insure
Success.

Twenty Rules to be Observed to Insure
Success.
The following twenty rules are self
evident to most tree planters, who, for
want of attention, break some Of them,
and reminders are therefore often use
fui:
/. A valuable sort is worth more than
merely handsome tree.
3. Good, healthy, bracing roots are
Of more Importance than symmetrical
top.
g. The roots should be long and
strong enough, and the top made light
enough. to obviate any stalking
4. If the roots of tree are frozen,
and then thawed out OF the ground or
in contact with the air, the tree will
be killed.
S. If frozen roots are thawed in COM
pactly-pressed mellow earth, the tree
may be made to live.
6. Manure should never be placed in
contact with the roots when setting
out the tree, but used for mulch or
top-dressing.
Z. Trees should always be set about
rs deep as they stood in the nursery,
or two or three inches deeper, to allow
for the settling Of the earth.
8. Spread out the roots nearly equally
on all sides, so as to brace the tree
well. e e sg sssH1 ava
o. Avoid particularly any small cav
ity next to the roots, but fill compactly
against them on all sides with fine,
mellow earth. ltet
10. A small, thrifty tree with copious
roots when set out will be good bear
ing tree sooner than a large one with
mutilated roots.
IL. Watering in dry weather crusts
the surface and does not reach the
roots. Ffts94st
IL. Young trees should not be set in
grass lot or among any crops of
sowed grain; but the whole surface
kept clean and mellow.
10. Shriveled trees, before planting,
may be made plump by covering for
several days, compacity, with moist,
mellow earth.
IA. If newly set ones suffer from
drought mulch the ground about
them, and frequently sprinkle Of
shower the stems and branches.
Is. The roots extend as far from the
tree as its entire height; clean and
mellow cultivation should therefore
cover a circle twice as wide as its
height.
IS. AS a general rule cultivation
should be continued for six, eight or
ten years from planting, after which
closely grazed or lawn-mowed grass
may be permitted with frequent top
dressing.
II. The amount Of manuring or top
dressing must vary with the vigor OF
the tree; young trees should grow two
or three feet yearly, and bearing ones
one foot or more.
ls. Keep an eye to the future shape
of the tree, and timely remove small,
needless, crossing or crooked limbs.

EoppER CORN.

II Csed to FIJI q siio It Means increases
Profit to tho Farmer.
Fodder corn, either to be cut up ana
stored In silo, or to be cured and fed
dry. has become q regular crop with
many farmers The latest conclusions
drawn from their practical experience,
and from carefully-conducted experi-
ments made At some of the aRricul-
tural experiment stations, are that the
best results can usually be obtained
by planting good variety Of common
field corn, drilling in rows from three
to four feet apart, the grains being
dropped about six inches apart, culti'
vating it thoroughly and cutting it
up when the plant and ear are fully
developed and the grains are glazing.
Heretofore it has been generally
recommended 60 plant for ensilage
the large-growing southern varieties
of corn, on account of the very large
amount of fodder they produce. But 1t
has been demonstrated that the or
dinary varieties of dent corn are usu-
ally as valuable, II not superior.
While they may not produce much
more than half the bulk of fodder
produced by the mammoth varieties,
their nutritive value is much higher.
they mature earlier in the season, and
the labor OF handling the cropi is much
less, so that in the end they are just az
profitable to raise.
Let every farmer who has been
thinking about building silo, and is
yet undecided, 60 ahead and plant the
crop intended for ensilage, and :,
later on, he decides not build silo,
he can use the crop to good advantage
in the form OF cured fodder corn.
From the great and increasing inter
est manifested on the subject during
the past few months it is reasonable to
estimate that the number of silos in the
Ohio valley will be doubled the coming
season.
The silo means decided change in
our present system Of agriculture. It
means more live stock on the farm, and
cheaper meat and dairy products It
means less acreage of grain, bus .
higher yield per acre from increased
fertility of the soil. 1t means increased
profits to the farm by lowering the cost
of production. The silo is q good
