FARMERS WHO. SUCCEED.
Three Types of AgricuIturists Found II
the Western states

Three Types of AgricuIturists Found In
the Western states.
Farmers are divided into three
classes: First, those who take up with
everything new in grains, vege tables
fruits and machinery without stopping
to think or studying the demands OF
tkSir market, the possibilities of their
soil and peculiariilcs of the climate.
Invariably they make failures. The sec
end class are those who never buy or
produce anything new in the way of
grains, etc, use the same implements
their fathers did, irrigate only wher
the spirit moves them, let their cattle
run around the straw pile in winter,
feeding them few nubbins; make all
their butter in the summer and use the
old dash churn. They are homely lik-
ened to a cows tail, inasmuch as they
are always behind.
The third class are those who think,
study their market and soil, begin on a
small scale and experiment. until the
problenf is solved. If new fruit is
being advertised and trees sold at enor.
nous prices they buy but one and sec
if it suits their soil and climate. They
will not set out peach orchard in a
swamp or cherry orchard on an al
luvial soil underlaid with gravel. This
class is the one that is making money
at farming-the otlfer two are in the
background. One and two are both
bound for the same place, but seemingly
travelling in opposite directions.
One acts without thinking; the other
thinks without acting. One is extrava.
giant in buying unnecessary things: the
other extravagant in not buying neces-
sary articles. One has no fixed method
of labor; the others method of labor
fixes him. These two classes are an
anomaly, and, as LamaIeine said to
Robespierre, are ''shadowy, underlined
mixed Not so with those desig.
mated as the third class. They have an
aim in farming, and as a result have a
well defined plan and combine brain
and muscle-theory and practice, know
the old way, but adopt the new
and are a success. In the new agricul-
ture of the far west these farmers are
legion and are rapidly coming to the
front. They believe in the modern
theory of advancement as applied to ag
riculture and are lettering their condi-
ton by working along these lines. The
methods of the past generations will
not do for them and they are reaching
out for the improved order of things
that mark the pathway of other men
who are great success in this world

machine cutter-bar, about five-eighths
of an inch thick and three or four

They were attached at the upper end
by a bolt, one being on each side, and
about two feet apart, and a slanting
brace made of wagon tire was bolted
to the shank about third of the way

IS inches ahead. The shoe was piece
of inch-steel about three inches wide.
and in finished condition about seven
inches long, the back three inches be-

inclination down just sufficient to make
it draw into the soil and rest upon the

like sultivator handles completed the
outfit.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

The Wisconsin station finds 100
pounds of whey produces as much pork
as Is cents worth of corn.
A sheep grower says that when lambs
are tormented with ticks they will drop
down on the ground and Try to bite their
TANKS and bellies in the most frantic
fashion.
Prof. Shaw, of the Minnesota ex-
pertinent station, cautions farmers to
grow peas on land that has clay sub
soil. and states that they will not thrive
on sandy soil.
The Vermont station kills potato bugs
with mixture of one pound Paris
green to 100 pounds land plaster, all
costing IS cents, while 100 pounds patent
bug remedies cost five dollars and up.
Divide the day up so as to have plenty
of time to rest and recreate. There
is no sense in working - hours a day
on the farm. 1t is the best way in
the world to disgust the boys with farm
life.
Bulletin 25, of the Wyoming station,
gives results of six years experiments
in growing wheat by irrigation. The
average cost was $7.75 per acre; average
profit, $10.16 per acre, which is ten per
cent. on a valuation of 500 per acre,
20 per cent. on $50, or 40 per cent. on $25
per acre. The advantages of irrigation
are an assured crop. heavier yield,
a better grain, and increasing fertility
of the soil.-Journal of Agriculture

Meeds IN One Farm Garden.

Few gardens have the opportunity
to show of what the soil is capable, be-
cause they are not kept free from weeds
and as well cultivated as they should
be This work needs to be done at the
start and kept up to the end. And in
deed it should not stop until the weeds
stop growing. 1t is often the case with
the garden as it is with the fields, that
when the crops are thought to be safe
the weeds are let alone to grow and
mature seeds. Thus the land is stocked
for years to come. Five years of perse-
verance in killing weeds and preventing
the seeding of them will secure clean
ground in the garden. and the field as
well--Rural World

''The popular idea that the age Of a
horse can always be told by locking at
his teeth" said a veterinary surgeon on
Michigan avenue, sis not entirely cor
rect. After the eighth year the horse
has no more new teeth. so that tie tooth
method is useless for telling the age of
n horse which is more than eight years
old. AS soon as the set of teeth is com
plete, however, a wrinkle begins to APP
pear on the upper edge OF the lower
eyelid, and new wrinkle is added each
year, 50 that to get at the age Of a horse
more than eight years old you must fig
