Agriculture.

Not only is the quantity of ma
nure increased by liberal use of
bedding, but there is an improve
ment in quality; the liquids are
more thoroughly absorbed and re-
tanned than they can possibly be
when an insufficient amount is
used.
We do not care so much for the
price of grain If the profit Is all
right; the one we can not control,
but the latter we can to degree, for
so much depends upon the cost of
production. BY better methods of
cultivation larger crops can be
grown, and the more bushels an
acre the less the cost bushel.
After the wheat is well up, and
when the ground is dry, run over il
with light harrow; repeat this just
before the ground freezes, and again
in the spring. III the plants can be
made to stool out by such cnltiva-
ton greatly desired end is
reached and if a few are pulled up
it is no cause for worry. Larger
stools are better than more plants.
After threshing clover for seed the
SITdW is UOb MOIlIl IluCil lOl lGONl,
but it should always be hauled to
the barn-yard and turned into ma
nure by using for bedding, rather
than left to rot down in the field.
Hardly anything could make rich
er addition to the compost heap,
after being thus saturated in the
stalls. A1"
Do not SOW timothy OH light soil
which is not very fertile, as it will
not fertilize poor soil nearly so well
as clover. This is one thing which
makes clover a valuable hay crop.
Timothy is the best grass crop on
dark loan or muck land, as it is not
apt to fall If clover is sown it should
be with timothy.
If a small flock of sheep Is turned
into the several fields successfully
in the fall, after the crops are off,
they will clean up a hundred acre
farm very successfully. They are
worth keeping for this purpose only.
If weeds are mown when they are
at all approaching ripeness, the only
safe way is to burn them. If the
SEEDS are already formed they ripen
enough to terminate, and so reseed
themselves. If not so disposed of it
would be we'll to save the labor of
cutting.
Few occupations demand a wider
range of knowledge or greater
adaptability in the Individual than
farming. Successful husbandry
permits the doing of nothing by
routine. New questions require a
man of resources to cope with them.
1t is an exploded idea that "any
fool can farm"
To mortgage farm for some un-
paid portion of it is honorable and
business like; the same can be said
where it has been done to place
needed buildings or drainage, which
will give it larger earning power
but to thus try to meet current eX-
penses upon the farm which is not
self supporting is very great folly.
Cut down the expenses or lose the
farm.
Every acre of waste land depreci-
ates the whole profit the farm can
earn, for there is constant expense
for interest and taxes. Even If it re-
quires a little outlay, such a spot
can be turned into grassy pasture
lot or an orchard of some descrip-
ton; in any event, make it earn
q little money in some way.

Poultry.


All summer long the housewife
has been laboring with chicks and
setting hens, only to find them
shelterless and unprovided for as
winter approaches. A greater mis-
take farmer never makes than in
not caring for his poultry; but there
always have been those who scoffed
at poultry profits, and there always
will be.
Fancy poultry breeding for pleas
ure, profit or fame, and running a
poultry yard for market purposes
and the money in it, are very differ
ent things. The one is fun regard
less of expense; the other hard work
with an eye on the incoming and
outgoing of every penny.
Economy is as necessary in the
poultry yard as anywhere else, but
it does not all lie in the counting of
the grains as they are fed. There is
a saving in giving good food, pure
water and clean quarters. There is
wOeful waste in keeping fowls one
day after they are ready for market.
The work is healthful, and it
WOulu pun COlOL lnbO Po1O
cheek if more of our suburban
homes had poultry yards where
they made it a business to raise
chicks for the market, and in a
business like way, which would re-
quire close attention and thoughtful
management. Playing at it would
amount to but little.
The color of the shell is not an
index of the quality of the egg, but,
nevertheless, large white shelled
egg sells in almost all markets for
more than does a brown she'll; but
with the former greater care must
be taken, for a soiled spot will show
much more readily upon a white
surface, and eggs which are not i'm
maculately clean positively lose in
value. Do not wash eggs, but wipe
them with damp wooden cloth
when taken to the house, il soiled.

best development; breed early, and
have her come into the dairy at 26
or % months of age.
Through the milk tester only can
justice be done at the creamery
and only those seem to doubt its
efficacy who are consciously bring
ing poor milk. 1t conduces to fair
prices for butter, for the price at
which poor butter must be sold has
a tendency to keep down the price
for all.
The strawstack, without much of
anything else, is one extreme in
feeding; the elaborate use of highly
concentrated foods is the other.
Profit must be in the nature of a
compromise. Continued high feed
ing is expensive, and will not 'pay
out" unless more than average
prices for butter are obtained High
feeding, too, is apt to injiIfe the
health of the COWS, for which much
milk and butter will be needed to
compensate.
In many parts of the West the in
PRODUCTION of the creamery has been
the means of enabling farmers to get
something beside calf for their
pay for keeping COW during the
year, and has shown how a farm
may be kept stocked with profit
Added results come as the COWS are
improved, and we are yet too far
from the 300 pound average.
If a farmer purposes to engage in
dairying only to add to the stock OF
poor butter with which we are al
ready deluged, he would better stay
out; but with our advanced know
edge there is no use for this at all.
There never was a time in which
there has been an over supply OF
really good butter in our markets.
The gilt edged article always finds
the ready buyer at a high price.
Good butter in winter will sell at a
price so much higher than in sum-
mer that it will much more than
balance the difference in the cost OF
feed and care; but it will pay no
better to turn out a poor product
then than at any other time. One
must know his business from be.
ginning to end, even to the style
which is most inviting when his
packages are put up for the market.
