Irrigation of Vegetables.

Always apply water to the vegetables
in the evening as the u is going down.
After each irrigation the soil should be
stirred with a hoe, or, better still, you
may get u small hand cultivator run
ming on a wheel and which can be
bought for about a.. 1t is quicker and
does better work than a hoe and can be
set to pillow, cultivate or weed between
the rows. Irrigate as often rs the plants
show signs of tagging. Large plants
will, as ~ rule, not need water whenev-
er tho soil is wei enough six inches deep
to roll up with your hands into a ball,
but for small seedlings or newly trans
planted vegetables the surface must be
kept moist.
In very arid climates it is q good
plan. whenever a bed is sown with
seeds. t cover it with straw, brush or
hay. so as to prevent evaporation. OF
course the covering must be removed as
soon as the seeds are we'll up, or they
will grow weak and spindly for lack Of
light and air. The covering is also use
full as q protection for radishes, lettuce,
peas and other vegetables that may be
sown extra early. Whether the water
should be applied to the beds by the
flooding or by the furrow system de-
ponds upon the variety Of vegetables
cultivated and the quality Of the soil
Where the soil is light and contains
plenty Of manure or vegetable humus. a
writer in The Irrigation Age says that
the best results are obtained by leaving
the beda fiat and just running water
over them. There are, however, many
crops, such as potatoes and strawberries,
which need to be grown in burrows.

CORN FOR HI Silo.
How the Corn Crop May BE Disposed Of
at Al Good Profit.

How the Corn Crop May BE Disposed Of
at Il Good Profit.
The popularity of corn as an ensilage
crop is not likely to decline until some
superior plant is found to take its place.
By virtue of its large yields, great feed
ing value and the wide range Of soils
and climates where it can be produced,
corn stands prominently the great en-
silage crop of the country. The corn
crop can always be disposed of at a good
profit if one uses it for feeding either
green in the field or in the ensilage form
later in the season. Sometimes the grain
is so cheap that the growers claim there
is no longer any profit in corn. Never
theless it is and always will be the great
crop Of this country. Those who depend
upon corn alone, however, must take
the risk of making or losing which ev-
cry specialist encounters. A surplus crop
mean low prices and almost ruin to
many farmers; a small crop means high
prices, but "a small amount of produce
to sell. Between these two extremes
many farmers make a fair living, but
each year knowing that uncertainty is
ahead. 4
Corn culture is sure enough now to
make every farmer feel confident that
he can raise u fair crop even in dry sea-
SONS, but he never has the same conf
dence in the markets. His whole crop of
fine, we'll matured corn may bring in
only o little more than enough to pay
for expenses. What is he to do in such
a case? Prairie Farmer says:
This would not be if more corn were
raised for feeding directly at home. A
corn farmer ought to be a stock raiser as
well. He has no business to put all Of
his eggs in such a risky basket. Where
corn grows naturally, as in the corn
belt, the food for stock can be raised at
a mere nominal cost. Nearly one-haf
Of the crop should be used for feeding
the cattle grain and preserved for win
ter feeding in the silo. If the corn in
the grain does not sell at a profit the cat
tie will, and rather than ship the grain
to market at a loss i, is better to in
crease the stock and feed the grain to
them. This is the only sensible view
that any farmer can take. During the
past season farmers, for the want of
ready money, have sold corn that would
not net them a dollar in profit. But if
cattle had been fed with the grain the
ready money would have been obtained,
and more of it. Wheat and corn can be
used in other ways than selling to the
marketman. The low price of wheat
this season has taught many a good les
son., and it is to be hoped that corn
growers will see a light for them in the
same experience. Corn must be raised
for the silo more than it has in the past.
and now is u good time to begin it.
There is money in ensilage corn and in
green corn fodder if we can only study
the situation so as to see it.

WHAT ONE TOWN HAS DONE.
Any Other Ma IIo as Well If the Citizens
VIII Work Together.


Any other May no as Well If the Citizens
VIII Work Together.
The following from the West Ran
dolph (Vt.) Herald shows what can be
done for advancement and upbuilding
of a town by the united and persistent
action of its progressive citizens:
"Three years ago the town of Bethel
yawned, stretched and woke mp. Bust
ness men had become tired of seeing
the same names entered in the ledger
year after year, with only such changes
as death and time brought about. They
longed for new fields to conquer. So
they put their heads and their hands
and their spare shillings together and
built a $25, 900 shoe factory. That was
three years ago. Today Bethel has a
shoe factory of which any town might
we'll be proud. One hundred and fifty
hands are employed at good wages. The
pay roll amounts to 81, 200 a week. Nor
is this all. The large tannery plant of
G. & E. G. Place has just been in
creased by the addition of a finishing
building 1870 by 40, which will double
the force at the shop, making 1875 hands
in oil. This addition was made by the
aid of S., 900 su bscribed in Bethel. The
business of Bethel has more than dou-
bled in two years. The great trouble
now is to find suitable sites for the
business blocks and dwellings pro-
iected.
