MISCELLANEOUS.
We sometime ago recorded the fact
that the Missouri and Texas Stations
had conclusively proved by actual
tests, that Texas cattle can be cleaned
Of ticks by dipping them in g crude
black petroleum from West Virginia
at an expense OF i cents per head, and
| that cattle thus cleaned may be taken
anywhere in the North without danger
Of communicating Texas fever to other
cattle. Now DIR. Paul PaquiD, Of ST
LcU's, and DR.. Coneway, Of the Mis-
souri, Station, have proved that North
ern cattle may be vaccinated again st
Texas fever, Or acclimation fever, and
may then safely be taken anywhere in
the South. These discoveries are Of
vast Importance. They open the mar
kets of the Northern feeding yards to
the cattle from Southern ranges, end
they open the markets Of Southern
breeding grounds to- the blooded herds
of the North. Heretofore, Southern
breeder who introduced blooded ami
mails from the North ran risk of losing
Of every four 4; while the Northern
markets were quarantined against
stock or feeding cattle from the South.
The Indiena Station has found for
malin to be as good as corrosive sub
innate and much safer, to treat seed
potatoes to prevent scab. Eight ounces
.: formaIin are added to Is gallons of
Peter, and the potatoes are soaked two
hours. Its advantages over corrosive
sublimate are, that it is not poisonous
and does not corrode metal.
George NJ Powell, of Newfeld, N.
j., has been experimenting to prove
that many poor people in crowded lots
in cities might produce fresh vegetables
for their tables. He dug hole Is inches
square and foot deep, and into this
put half bushel Of manure and mixed
in the top soil. Here he planted a to
mato plant in bloom, a spade full Of
dirt being taken up with the plant
Then the soil from the bottom CT the
hole was put in circular ridge about
the plant, so that the plant stood in q
shallow earthen cup. Into this cup
kitchen Stops were poured daily. The
vine was fastened to wall as it grew.
This one plant grew more than 100 feet
OF vine, supplied more tomatoes than
the average garden, and yielded an
abundance Of fruit two months after
tomatoes had disappeared from sur
rounding gardens. He claims shat a
Oox or barrel Of earth on a roof will
supply a family with cucumbers,
squash, melons, etc.

WHAT IS FERTILITY.

The following is taken from a valu-
able paper read at a Farmers Institute,
in Rushville, Illinois, by M. ". Greer.
In answer to the proposition, How shall
we maintain the fertility Of the farm?
he said in part: ''In regard to main
tanning the fertility of the soil, the
wording Of the question presupposes
the idea that such q thing is possible,
and just here remark experience has
demonstrated that it is not only pos
sible to maintain, but even increase,
the fertility of our farms, and by a
judicious and proper course Of treat
ment aud management hand them
down to future generations in at least
as good condition as when we received
them, and thus demonstrate that in
this respect, at least, we have been
faithful stewards of the trust commit
ted t. our keeping.
''The first question which presents
itself is what DO we mean by the term
fertility of soil,' to which answer,
possession of and power to furnish
plant food, because it is not sufficient
of itself that the soil shall simply be in
possession of the different elements it
is essentially necessary that these shall
all be in such condition as to be readily
taken up and made available by the
growing plant.
ITO illustrate: Experience has dem
onstrated that bone meal is a very
valuable fertilizer and great etimulator
of plant growth, especially beneficial
to the wheat plant, and yet we might
scatter tons of dry bones over the sur
face of an acre of ground and still the
growing crop receive not one particle
of benefit theretrom.
Now it is principle we'll understood
in the business of farming that exhaus
ton of the soil, or reduced fertility,
simply means that these different ele
ments upon which plants depend for
their growth have been removed from
the soil by the continued cropping of
the same.
81 have a German friend who says
some very sensible things in rather an
awkward way, and upon one occasion,
in speaking of Held of corn that had
not come up to his expectations, ex-
planned it all by saying he guessed the
corn juice was all out of the ground
'NoW it makes no difference by
what name we. call it; we may speak
of it as the richness of the soil, or we
may apply the names which science
and chemistry has given to these diff.
ferent elements and speak of them as
the nitrogen, the ammonia, and the
phosphoric acids, the potash and aka
lies, or adopt the more homely express
sion of my old friend, and refer to it as
the 'iuice;' yet the feet remains that if

No. Is

these have been removed from the soil
the fertility has been reduced to that
extent, and in order to maintain the
former condition a system of restitu-
ti0n must be adopted and if we succeed
in reetoring as much as has been re-
moved we maintain the fertility, and
more than that tends to increase the
fertiiitv."

with an independence that was startling
in its freshness and. vigor. The ladies
were very pret,ily atured in Martha

hair and all that sort of thing, while the
male delegation wore full dress suits
and expectaut smiles. The interms-
