Roots for Iowa Stock.

Prof. James Wilson, of the Iowa sta
ton, in an address said The questions
are prominent whether we can main
tain the excellence of imported animals
without roots, and whether perfect
health can be maintained easily with.
out them in winter, and what can be
most readily and profitably grown to
keep dairy cows in milk during Sep
TENDER and October drouths, such as
we had last fall. In order that the
farmers of Iowa might get some facts
regarding root growing, we have been
growing different kinds during the two
years we have been at Ames. Inquiry
was rife whether the state could grow
sugar beets profitably. We have grown
two crops under rigid rule and careful
note-taking, and find that the average
per cent of sugar in the beet was 14.14,
that the average tonnage per acre was
20,that the highest tonnage per acre was
%, that clay soils give the highest per
cent of sugar, that subsoiling gave the
best shaped beets, that early planting
is every way better, and that no fertil.
izer we could buy gave us any benefit
We have had most success and profit
from growing mangles for stock. They
are healthy, hardy and yield well. They
are valuable for cows, keep well, and
are very acceptable to cattle Of all
kinds. The harder varieties of turnips
are good for stock, but seem to be liable
to insect ravages and do not uniformly
give the amount of feed per acre that
mangles do. The yellow turnips sowI
in the fall on early potato ground OF
on early fall blowing, for early winter
feeding, are valuable. BY carefully
preparing new land in the fall and
planting early we can grow the man.
gle with very little hand labor, and we
are convinced that it can be profitably
given place in the Iowa farm system

wide window seat, has two feet Of
Moorish fretwork fitted in at the top.

Asiatic Roman floss, some in white
tapestry worked in deft blues and one
in soft old pinks, giving needed touch
of contrasting color. The couch is
merely the wide, long box which holds
her party dresses, the top so upholstered
and hinged that it can be raised at

with old-blue corduroy; on its left

prlcots in the Southwest.

The summary of the bulletin on ap-
ricots recently issued by the agricul-
tural station at Tucson is as follows:
1. Our cultivated apricots are de-
rived from three species, but one (Pru-
nus Americana) furnishes all that are
valuable for fruit in this region.
2. The fruit takes a large quantity
of potash and phosphoric acid from the
soil.
cent is flesh and per cent is pit. Kai-
sha has the smallest proportion of pit
and Breda the largest.
4. There is 81 per cent of Juice and
Is per cent of fiber in the flesh of an
apricot. The juice contains 13 per
cent of sugar, the flesh IL, and the
whole fruit, including pit, II per cent.
OF albuminoids (crude protein) there
is IL per cent.
5. The mean weight of fruits Of all
varieties was ounce each. The Breda
bore the smallest fruit, averaging
about % to the pound. The largest
fruit was IL to the pound, borne by the
Kaisha and Moorpark.
6. The soil not being typical one
for either apricot, plum or peach
stock, the growth Of trees upon the
different kinds of stock was practically
the same.
z. This season upon this soil fruit
from trees of several varieties is
larger, Of better quality and earlier
when upon apricot stock than upon
Myrobolan. Other varieties show no
differences due to stock.
8. Pringle was the first to ripen,
but the fruit is not of as good quality
as most others.
9. st. Ambrose bore the finest ap-
pearing fruit.
10. Royal was the most prolific.

Hetty Green's Wealth.

The popular estimate Of Hetty
Green's fortune ranges from twenty
million to one hundred million dollars
and probably the former figures are
not far from the truth. Almost every
thing she has touched has turned into
cash, but probably she has never made
a luckier investment than when, in
1877, she forecosed a mortgage for
100000 on some Chicago real estate.
Nearly all the current stories of Mrs.
Green's thrift have some basis of truth,
though many are exaggerated. She
once said, though, to Brooklyn lady,
while passing Delmonico's: well, I've
