How to Plant Pease.

Ask any man who has been farming
for the last 30 to 80 years how to plant
a pea field, for instance after wheat
and oats, nine out of ten will tell you
to lay off the land about three feet
wide with a scooter plow, drop the pea,
cover with fork pillow. Ask him why
he plants this way, and he will tell
you grandpappy did so. All those who
plant this way well know that you
will have to chop them out or lose the
crop. Now my way Of planting is to
take a good one-horse turn plow Il use
the Boss as prefer 1t to any / have
ever usedD, throw out the dirt each
way to the middle, which will make a
high ridge this is like any bedding)
for the middles heaping up the dirt
and covering Up all weeds and grass,
drop the pease in water furrow, cover
with double stock.
After peas are up run around with
small scooter; after two or three weeks
break out middles with scrape and
scooter, which brings the dirt to a
level. This blowing will lay by the
peas, which makes the crop with six to
seven burrows. No chopping required.
l have been pursuing this mode OF
planting. Iprefer it to all other ways
l have ever seen tried. Try one time
to be convinced that it is the best, as
last year Iplanted Is acres after wheat
and oats. Made fine crop, and you
could not have gotten your hat full OF
crab grass in the whole field w.

HERE AND THERE.

Hens one to three years old are the
best breeders. The eggs of pullets are
often infertile under the most favor
able conditions.
To have broilers for market 1t is
necessary to hatch in winter. Here is
where the incubator comes in. And
then it is necessary to give the chicks
the best of care, or the Matching will
be all in vain. Here is where the
brooder gets in it's work.
Sheep ought not to be pastured
continually on the same ground, but
should be so changed Gboat as to give
as much of the farm as possible the
benefit of their presence, and give the
sheep the benefit of the cleaner pasture
and better variety of food.
An occasional change of diet is as
beneficial toanimals as man. The best
single ration that was ever invented
may be improved by the occasional
substitution of something not half so
good. The animal system gets fatigncd
with the dull routine of digesting tho
same constituents day after day, no
matter how perfect they may be proven
to be by the chemist.
Hogs require large amount of
water and must have it If they keep
healthy and fatten well. The water
should be as pure as possible. A hog
can not drink constantly of disense-
laden liquid masquerading as water
and maintain physical vigor. The
hog, in his great desire for water, will
drink anything that is wet. Whole
some food, wholesome drink and whole
some surroundings are as necessary for
hogs as tor men.

Pig Diseases.

Mr.. A. c. Diller, proprietor of the
Marshall county herd of Poland-China
hogs at Marshalltown, Ia, writes the
Homestead: We are often asked:
what do you do for thumps?'
Make things right on the start and
you will not have any. Don't violate
nature unless you want to pay for it.
If the litter is kept in cool, dark
place away from the sunshine and the
dam well fed with good milk-form-
ing food, look ont for thumps. They
are sure to come. You probably have
them already. If the dam is
fed irregularly, or is allowed
to have an occasional big fill of any
rich food, you can see sample of pig
scours. Or should you like bob-tailed
pigs you can remove the tails without
the aid of the knife by allowing the
bed or nest to get damp and hot, as it
will if they are kept in close place
without the aid of the sun to dry, or
change of the bedding. You need not
wait long; by the time the pigs are a
week or ten days old the tails will be-
gin to dry up and will soon drop of.
We have no use for the apothecary
shop in this business. Use natures
remedies Here they are boiled down.
Young breeders, paste this in your
hat: Feed plenty of light food up to
the time of narrowing; give double
feed at the time of making nest; feed
water first "a hours, then light feed
and increase slowly; keep nest dry,
give full dose of sunshine and repeat
daily if possible; exercise after six
days. If you want any more color on
any of the above points, l am here foI
that purpose."

The Grunt of tho Pig.

The continual grunting OF the pig i.
OF interest MS. revealing something Of
the conditions of life of his wild ances
tors. A herd OF swine scattered in the
long grass or among the bracltens of II
European forest would soon lose sight
Of one another. But the grunts of each
would still advertise his presence to his
neighbors, and so the individual meni.
bers of the herd would not lose touch
with the main body. Then there are
grunis and grunts. If one of my read
crs will initiate the ingenious Mr.
Garner and take photograph to the
nearest pigsty he might get material
to make up u book on the language and
grammar of the hog. However thick
the jungle, the wild pig could, by tax.
ing note Of the pitch and emphasis of
the grunts to right and left of him,
tell pretty much what his hidden col
leagues were thinking about.-North

There is an intense rivalry between
the watermelon and tomato growers
MS to who can produce the earliest. Sal
zer's Earliest Watermelon ripened in
1895 in SO days. That record is to be
beaten, and Salzer pays 500 to the win
ner! Then on tomatoes the record on
$50 days the Earliest Tomato" in 1895
was 6s days. That's to be beaten, and
$50 paid. Salzer challenges the world
to produce earlier melons, tomatoes,
cabbages, radishes, peas or sweet corn
than he offers. Get his mammoth cat
alogue. There is money in it.

THE PEANUT.
Some Facts In Relation to the Festive
GoOber.

Some Facts In Relation to the Festive
GOOber.
The peanut is not nut at all. 1t is
ground pea, and is called nut be-
cause it has nut-like shell. The plant
blossoms in the air and sunlight, but
after the blossom has FALLEN off," the
stem upon which it was plows or
punches itself into the ground several
inches, where the seed portion of the
flower begins to enlarge and develop
into pale yellow, wrinkled, curved
pod" with slight drawing together
in the middle. If the stem does not
find its way into the ground within a
day or two after the flower falls off,
the stem dies. The surface of the pod
is Melted.
The peanut has never been known
to grow wild, and 1t is not known
where it is native. hundred years
ago the peanut was leading article of
food in Africa, and the slave traders
loaded their vessels with peanuts and
the negroes lived on them on the voy-
age.
1t grows abundantly in Japan, China,
and in all East India countries. twas
not much cultivated in the United
until 1866. Their extended cultivation
was the result of the war. Until then
there had been large importations from
Africa, but since 1870 this country has
raised all II has used. Virginia, North
Carolina and Tennessee produce most
Of the crop Of the United States Vu.

Making Ice In the Tropics.

A Yankee farmer in Brazil, who
Ionged for the cooling liquids of his
native land and was unable TO obtain
them in that tropical country, has utIl-
lied kite for the purpose of obtain
ing ice. He fills n tin can with water
and sends it to the height of three miller,
where it is promptly frozen. After
4 sufficient interval the kite is rapidly
hauled in and the cake of ice is secured.
The inventor is so pleased with his toy
that he now proposes to send UP kite
$50 feet long by a steel wire cable. TN.
der the kite will be suspended a pulley,
over which runs an endless chain bear
ing cans attached to hooks. The cans
will be filed with water and the speed
of the belt upon which they run will be
regulated so that the topmost cans will
be converted into ice sufficiently hard
to stand the downward journey. This
Ia certainly the most original Ice mo.
chine Of which we have ever heard,'~

der good conditions, before the land
has been exhausted" by raising tho
same crop too long, they can raise from
80 to 100 bushels to the acre.
The pea vines are better food for
cattle than timothy hay and almost as
good as clover. Peanut meal is good
food for cattle. A bushel of good pea
nuts weighs about 90 pounds. The
peanuts are plowed up rather than dug
up. The pillow turns up the soil and
loosens the vine and pods from the
earth, and they are then pitchforked
out Of the ground, the earth being cares
fully shaken from the plants. They
are plowed up in the morning, pitched
into rows soon. after, and at night
pitched into q stack about pole, seven
feet high. Rails are laid below the
vines, so that the lower pods will not
be pressed into the earth and be spoiled.
The vines are so placed as to have the
pods inward toward the pole, and
space is left for air next to the pole.
On the top of the stack is hay or corn
stalks, to keep out the rain. The stack
is left from two to three weeks, and
then women and children pick the
good pods from the vines. This
is slow work and quite expensive.
Some farmers leave the vines two days
after blowing before they are shaken
out, and some make their stacks IA feet
high Some leave them in the stacks
less than two weeks, and then put them
in barns till they are ready to market
them or have leisure to pick them.
Some farmers pick them from the vines
by machines The pods are cleaned by
machinery before being put in sacks.
A sack holds four bushels. Peanuts,
well put up and kept in q dry place,
are good for many years.
There are about 100000 bushels OF
peanuts raised in the United States
each year. The rest of the world raises
five times as many rs the United
States, or 10000, 900 bushels.
The peanuts are of four grades. The
first three grades are for vendors OF
roasted peanuts. The fourth is for con-
fectioners for burnt almonds" or pea
nut candy.
The American people pay $4,000, ooO
for peanuts, not to eat as food, but to
nibble for fun. journal of Education.

DURABILITY OF THE CYPRESS.

Instances Known In Which 1t Has Lasted
for More Than One Thousand Years.
The cypress is n VIGOROUSLY slow
growing tree, and its wood is just as
VIGOROUSLY durable. 1t is capable OF
not only resisting the action of the
weather in manner totally different
TO all other woods, but is wholly unin-
fiuenced by immersion in water over
a long period of years. 1t has many
curious chemical properties, which
hold its fibers and other constituents
together so indissolubly that the ordi.
nary changes which break down the
tissues of ordinary woods are in cypress
wholly resisted.
Instances are known where the wood
OF the cypress has endured for more
than 1000 years, leaving it still in
solid condition, subject only to the at.
triton of the elements, such as the
gradual wearing away one sees in ex-
posed rocks. In the lower valley Of
the Mississippi species of cypress Is
extremely abundant. And in New Or
leans lately, while some men were OK
cavating trench, cypress stockade
was found which was erected i'm 1870
by the French as protection against
the Indians. Some of the pieces meas
ured 81 inches in width, with thick.
ness of about IL inches, and, though
it had been buried for so many years,
1t was in perfect condition when ex-
humed, even the tool marks being still
clearly visible.
by u series of experiments extending
over many years, II has been found that
the cypress wood endures the varying
conditions of greenhouses better than
pny otherwood. Greenhouses exposed to
all the ycissitudes of heat, moisture,
and changes of temperature, show the
cypress timber used in their construc-
ton TO be practically unchanged after
more than so years of use; and, being
sufficiently tough for the purpose, il is
probable it will come more generally
into use for building where wood of
great resisting power is required.
Many old doors made by the early
Spaniards in America are still as'serv-
iceable MS ever, although exposed to
most trying climate. Dis
