Drive in the Piow Point and Discover ths
Hidden Fertility.
Many writer's on blowing in the even
ing twilight of the nineteenty century
make the same statements and their
want of progress is expressed In the
same terms used in the dark ages,
when blowing was done with wooden
mold-board, when very shallow plow-
ing was the only kind which could be
done. One of these writer's in a New
York paper recently seemed to be OPP
posed to all progress in blowing. lie
said some beginners had accepted the
advice of some one and plowed deeper
than the old style. These beginners
failed in business One from Audrain
county, Mo-, wrote his experience in
deep blowing and said he was disap'
pointed and damaged by blowing
deep in the fall for oats. He said the
deep-plowed ground was entirely too
mellow; that the oats grew too rank
and lodged
This class of writers say that wheat
gets its growth from the surface, in
that particular plainly showing their
ignorance of the wheat plant. All in
terested parties ought to know that
wheat has u deep, piercing tap root.
Wheat is a delicate plant; it needs n
thorough preparation of the soil, es-
pecially old land. In explanation of
tine Importance of good work in plow-
ing, will ask permission to relate the
experience of a French farmer, whose
acquaintance / made at the Worlds
fair last year l saw there his wheat
and the plow with which he prepared
his land. He gave me a sample OF the
wheat that grew IS bushels to the acre
on land which formerly could not be
made to produce 25 bushels per acre.
Deep thorough blowing during a
period of twenty-five years OCCASION
ally the land was treated to deeper
blowing than the former, until seed
bed of very unusual depth was secured;
rotation of crops and ordinary fertiliza-
ton were employed while making this
progress. The greatest depth of plow-
ing was done with eight horses. The
earth was moved thoroughly two feet
deep. We American farmers pillow too
much surface; we shall yet learn the
Importance of better blowing.
The Importance of more thorough
blowing at greater depth in the fall
can be easily realized; no farmer need
be afraid of theory-he can experiment
for himself. Let the work be thor
ough, not with a coulter simply, or
lister, but let it be done with pillow of
the very best earth-moving capacity,
so it may be known that the impor-
lance of blowing is to be better under

The Color of Milk.

We often hear, says one of our for
eign exchanges, u dairyman boast OF
the fact that his cows give erich look
ing" milk. Hence arises the question:
docs light color always indicate a
poor milk, and does yellow color al,
ways indicate rich mill1?" AS mat
ter of fact, color of milk is no guide
to it's richness in fat contents. The
color OF the stripping and the first
milk will answer this question. The
strippings are usual six or eight
times richer in fat than the cor
responding fTst milkings, and yet
both are of the same color. One au-
thority states that the coloring mat
ter in milk is a heterogeneous chemical
compound, and he calls it lachta-
chrome, and says it is this compound
that gives milk, butter and whey its
yellow tint. The amount of this col.
oring matter in the milk is influenced
by the food of the animal as well as by
its individuality. That the color OF
milk is not a certain index of its fat
contents is borne ont by the white but
ter usually produced on winter food,
and the golden hued June product,
though June grass milk is not phenom-
enally rich in fat though the fat is
highly colored. Dairyman.

IS give up the ghost. This procedure,
defying as it did all precedent, struck
terror into the ursine heart, and it is a
fact that bears have been notable for
their absence in this region ever since.
Like Davy Crockett's coon, they have
learned to fear this great hunter, and
not to tempt fate by their presence in
his neighborhood
But Mart is better man than he
gives himself credit for being. His
picture of himself is entirely too
pessimistic. He is hospitable and gem
erous, and an extremely interesting
talker on subjects connected with
the woods. He has hunted, trapped
and flshed since he was knee high to a
grasshopper, and better woodsman
or more entertaining companion would
he hard to find.
Mart don't mind bears, but there is
one animal which he acknowledges he
does not care to meet, and the possible
proximity of which in the woods al
ways fills him with uneasiness. The
animal in question is the catamount,
or panther Years ago, when Mart
was working for Nose Ames, who
lived on the road between Saranac
lake and Lake Placid, he met with the
following adventure which left deep
impression on his mind.
One warm, misty night in June he
left Ames' house to visit neighbor-
ing farm for the purpose of borrowing
an ak. He had just reached the foot
of the hill after leaving the house
when he heard painting ahead of him
in the road, such as large dog might
make after violent exertion. He
looked in the direction from whence
came the sound, and the next instant
saw large animal leap across the
road, coming toward him.
The sound of its painting had come to
him with great distinctness, borne on
the moist evening air, and now he
could hear 1t trotting toward him
through the bushes beside the road.
Instinctively, he felt for some weapon.
The road was sandy, and search as he
might, he could find no stone of suit
able size to hurl against his unknown
adversary. The strange animal mean
while was coming nearer, and was now
only a few yards away. Moved todes-
peration, the boy seized handful of
wet sand and threw it with all the
force he could command directly at the
animal, at the same time scolding it as
he would have scolded dog The

This is the sum we hear the Sal2er

their wonderful new oats. The United
States department of agriculture says
Salzer's oats is the best of 300 varieties

test yield of 200 bushels per acre last
year, and are sure this can be grown
and even more during 1895. Another
farmer writes us he cropped liz bush
els of Salzer's Marvel Spring wheat on
two and one-half acres. At such yield
wheat pays at SOC per bu. One thing
we know and that is that Salzer is the
