DOUBLE THE PRESSURE.

Chief Carlisle has secured for
the fire department two Siamese
couplers for the hose wagons,
which were fully tested yesterday
evening in front of the fire station,
the old one being used at the same
time to illustrate the advantage Of
the new coupler.
1t is used in this manner:
One Joint of hose is connected
to either side of a hydrant, the
other end Of these being joined to
the new coupler, which is in the
form of a Y throwing two full
streams into one hose. This gives
more than double the pressure
that was formerly obtained, and
will throw a deluge of water from
an inch and a half nozzle over the
tallest building in the city. The
nozzels now in use are three and
one-fourth inches, both were tes-
ted yesterday.

Sow More Glover.

Few farmers SOW clover, and many
Of those who do, greatly err in their
mode of management. In the first
place they fail to SOW as much seed as is
necessary to insure the best improve
ment; for if the ground is not occupied
with clover, weeds will fill the space, to
the injury of what clover there is. An
other error is in pasturing the clover
too early and too constantly; for if the
tops Of the plants are not allowed to
develop the roots, from which much Of
the improvement in the soil is derived,
are correspondingly checked. No stock
should be turned upon clover until it
Is in bloom; when the first crop is eaten
down the animals should be changed
to other pastures; or, If the first crop
is cut for hay, the second crop should
be saved for seed and the improvement
of the soil. The second crop of the sea-
son furnishes much more and better
seed than the first. When it Is intend
ed to save the seed, the first crop may
be either moved or pastured down. If
pastured, the more speedily it is eaten
down and the stock turned off the bet
ter, SO that the growth of the second
crop may be vigorous and uniform
over the entire piece Of ground.-Ex.

Rotation of Crops.

Rotation of crops is indispensable to
good farming. To maintain the fertil-
ity of the soil clover or some other
green crop should enter the rotation as
often as once in four years. In cor
rect system of rotation of crops barley,
oats, wheat, rye, should not immediate
ly succeed one another. A crop of corn,
potatoes, beans, clover or grass should
intervene. Crops should succeed one
another that draw as much as possible
their sustenance from sources as widely
different as possible, and the cultiva-
ton should be different, also, to pro-
duce the greatest benefit. A great
fault with our farming is that the
same kind of crop is raised too long
on the same ground. One year, or at
most two, is as long as piece of ground
should be sown to the same kind of
crop. Change to a crop as different in
its nature as possible; then give pc
RODS of rest by sowing the grasses,
clover, ETC., and our farms will never
degenerate. The intelligent farmer
will take heed and be sure to keep his
soil in good spirits. He will not rob it
of it's most valuable ingredients, but
will study how he may best preserve
them-Ex,

Cotton Seed for Hogs.

In our last issue we cautioned feed
ers against feeding cotton seed to
hogs until more was learned about it.
The following from gentleman who
allowed his hogs to follow cattle fed on
cotton seed is worthy Of attention:
NV opinion about feeding cotton
seed to hogs is just this much: would
not haul it from the depot, as am sat
isfied that it would kill more hogs than
it would fatten. It will not do to have
hogs follow them referring to cattle

hollow and gaunt for about day, and
the next day they would be dead. /

white and Yellow Corn.


Whether the yield of corn Is affected
by color, and whether the white or the
yellow varieties produce the greater
yield, has always been a matter of dis
pute. In order to secure definite infor-
nation in regard to this the Mississippi
experiment station has made 1873 tests
with As varieties of dent corn. AS a re-
suit of this work the rs tests with 25
white varieties have given an average
yield of 43 bushels per acre, while the
60 tests with 20 yellow varieties have
given an average of only 1872 bushels
per acre. These total averages coincide
very closely with the partial results
published in several of the annual re-
ports, and which were as follows: In
1890 the yield Of II white varieties was
44.6 bushels per acre, while Is yellow
varieties gave 81 bushels. In 1891, rs
white varieties yielded 37.5 bushels,
while IS yellow varieties yielded 34.9
bushels per acre. In 1892 the yield Of
IL white varieties was 45.2 bushels,
while the same number OF yell
low varieties gave only 405 BUSH
els per acre. In 1893 and 1894 the tests
were continued with % white varieties
yielding APT bushels, and 10 yellow va
rieties yielding 1871 bushels per acre.
During each year of this work the two
varieties giving the heaviest yields
were both white, though not always the
same varieties.
These results have been so uniform,
and have indicated SO strongly that the
better yield can usually be secured from
the white varieties, that the published
records of similar work done at other
stations have been examined very care
fully, and have been found to CORES
pond very closely with the results Sc
cured at this station.
These figures show that in total OF
1857 tests with 400 varieties, the av-
erage yield of PIT white varieties has
been 2.5 bushels per acre in excess OF
the yield of 273 yellow varieties; and
that at only one of the seven stations
making these tests have the yellow va
rieties given tee better average yield. At
six of the seven stations some one white
variety has given the best yield, and Of
the thirty-five varieties named as CIV
ing the best yields at the different sta
lions, twenty-four are white and only
seven are yellow.
Such an agreement in results over
such a wide area, and secured by such
| a large number Of careful tests, can
not be accidental, but shows very plain
ly that it is usually possible to secure
greater yields from white than from
yellow varieties,
