The hawbweed, which Is II trouble.
some weed pest in Vermont. has been
the subject Of experiments at tho state
station These experiments have been
conducted to ascertain the best means
of killing the weed in grass lands, and
it was found that it may be completely
exterminated in less than year by
blowing, followed by clean culture, so
as to allow ne growth of the plant above
ground, and that salt applied to the
plants kills them very quickly, the
amount Necessary not being sufficient to
injuro the grass materially, Where a
large area of grass land islto be cleared
of the weed it is probable that the ap-
plication of cheap grade of salt at the
rate of about one or two tons pS acre
would prove profitable, she land after
ward to be plow@d and followed by
clean cultivation.

A Hiding Place of Insect Foes.

Scraping the trunks of trees in fall or
winter is an old practice, which many
farmers follow without any definite idea
of its purpose. Opinions as to the value
of such work are divided some consider
ing that the number Of insects is lessened,
while others see no particular benefit,
The reason for advising the scraping is
that cooling moth caterpillars, pear psylla
or lice, eggs of oyster.shel ba'kice, and
scurfy bark louise, all hide in the rough
bark over winter. To scrap off the bark
and apply coat ofwhitewash to the under
surface must needs reduce somewhat the
number of these insects, but if they exist
at a in the orchard there viii no doubt
plenty OF them remain to cause trouble
So many are left in fact and so trouble
some is the work, that most large orchard
lists do not make the attempt, pteferring
to fight the Insects all together later on.
il the trees are sorapeo, the operation
should include besides the trunk, the rough
bark on the lower branches, Then apply
Whitewash, which foI the sake Of appear
ances, may be shaded to approach some
what the color of the bark -PorghmaH.

The Inspection of FertiI-
izers, 1897.

The Maine Agricultural Experiment
Station is now sending out the second OF
the bulletins on the Inspection of Ferti
izers for 1897. The bulletin issued in
March contained the analyses of the
samples received from the manufacturers.
The percent bull, Tin contains the analyses
OF the samples collected in the open market
by the inspector.
The table comparing the percentages
guaranteed by the manufacturers with the
results Of the analyses Of the manufacturer s
samples and those collected by the inspec-
tor III different parts of the State, contain
the figures OF the greatest interest to manu-
factulers as well as consumers. From
these comparisons it is gratifying to note
that as a rule, the fertilizers are we'll up to
the minimum guarantee. The comparisons
indicate that the manufacturers. for the
most part, do not intend to do much more
than make good the minimum guarantee
and this is all that the purchaser can safely
exI ect.'
This bulletin will be sent to all who
apply to the Agricultural Experiment

The Massachusetts station found mix
ed silage of corn and sola beans very
fine. Vermont station made superior
silage of oats and yetch, also of oats and
peas.
SilaRe produced more milk at the
Ohio station, more butter at the Penn
sylyania station and more mutton mt the
Michigan station than beets. Even when
there is a loss of 30 per cent in the
feeding value of silage, it is cheaper
feed than roots The Wisconsin station
preserves silage at Il loss of only 8 per
cent of its feeding value The loss in
curing fodder is never less than 20 per
cent.
The Pennsylvania station found 81
lage and cured fodder about equally di-
gestible. Kansas station grew 100 tons
of silage OH ten acres, and it sustained
25 head of cattle 1912 days--h result
which it is thought could not be attain
ed with ten acres of cured fodder

For Feeding.

Its Sutritive preparation Of Stover
For Feeding.
Farmers differ widely as to the feed
ing value of corn slower Some have
claimed that stoyer possesses hut little
nutritiye value, while many others con.
slider it TO have about one half the feed
ing value of hay As L b Lindsey of
the Massachusetts Hatch experiment
station explains its true feeding value
depends to a great extent upon its me-
chanical condition, the quantity fed
daily and its proper combination with
other feeding stuffs. When stover is fed
whole, the average animal eats the
stalks 1t is only necessary to observe
the farmer manure pile to know the
value he places upon his slower To
show the increased consumption caused
by cutting corn slower, the Wisconsin
experiment station conducted three feed
ing experiments with four milk cows
The cows were fed Il grain ration and
in addition all they would eat OF cut or
uncut slower The corn was cut into
inch lengths in "a feed cutter, which
also shredded the coarse stalks The
first two experiments were conducted
with Pride of the North slower, me
dunn dent variety, and the last with
Stowell Evergreen, planted thickly. 1t
was found that cutting saved 3G per
cent of the fodder i'll the first, 81 per
cent III the second and per cent in the
third experiment. 1t is probably a CON
sentative statement that farmers lose
fully oue-third of their stoyer by feed
ing it whole.
Machines are in use which husk the
corn and shred the slower at the same
time. Many have pronounced them
economical, while some have questioned
the advantages to be derived from them.
Professor Nourse of the Virginia expert
ment station, who has recently given
one of these machines practical trial,
reports very satisfactory results. Any
machine that will thoroughly shred the
fodder is preferable to one that simply
cuts it.
Fodder that is shredded Immediately
so moist as to mold when thrown in
large piles and proves worthless for
feeding The New Jersey experiment
station has reported serious trouble
from this course On the other hand il
the fodder is stored for a few mon hs
previous to shredding the danger is
largely if not entirely avoided. This in
wolves considerable extra expense, how
ever, which sometimes renders it Of
doubtful economy. The fact romans
that slower cannot be shredded in any
large quantity when moist without
great danger of its rapidly becoming
unfit for feeding Farmers having pow
or cutters of their own can shred at one
time sufficient for week use without
danger of its spelling.

Raise More Turkeys.

The Waterville Mail is of the opinion
that the farmers of Maine are negectlng
fine opportunity of turning an honest
dollar with as little work as is ordinarily
demanded in that task BY not making an
effort to raise more turkeys. Time was
when the Maine turkey crop brought the
farmers returns and it seems as if there is
the same change today. One drawback
to complete success in this department of
poultry raising has been the foxes, which
are cunning and determined enemies of
the turkey, and many a promising flock
after it had apparently reached a stage
advantage enough to allow its owner to
begin to count up his profits, has been
ruthlessly slain, sometimes at one visit of
Master Reynard, but thanks to the effect,
of the "secret,' which is nov no longer a
secret among a great number of farmers
as we'll as professional trappers, the day
of the fox in the more thickly settled
sections Of the State seems to be well nigh
ended. He is slowly but surely becoming
exterminated and, although the fox-hunter
who loves to hunt with dog and gun may
fret and ask Maine legislatures to stop the
trappers in their deadly work, they will
bdIuly DC SUCCESSFUL IN the TACT tnat many
of the legislators are farmers themselves
and not kindly disposed to the fox. Re
move all dangers of loss from the depre-
dation OF foxes by allowing the trappers
to finish their good work of extinction and
it will not be long before Maine farmers
can raise turkeys with almost as little risk
and trouble as they now raise chickens.
Then Names Thanksgiving and Christ
mas markets will be found stocked with
the home product instead of that raised
in the west and with salts factory results
all around. 1t pays the farmer to raise
turkeys if he has what he calls good luck
in the process and the Maine consumer
prefers to buy for his Thanksgiving or
Christmas dinner a Maine turkey, if he
can.

Small Farms.

Farmers are beginning to see that less
acreage of land, free from The oppressive
mortgage, is more to be desired than a
burden of debt. Intensive farming is the
basis of argument upon which our learned
and scientific agriculturist build their
estimates of rapid Development and future
permanent wealth. The increasing number
of small farms, with better cultivation and
better Improvements. is certain to be
followed by an increasing production, an
inert ased number of manufacturing in
dustries, an increased population and great
ly increased wealth OF the states resources.
Economy on the farm may be made to
mean more than the saving of the little
things. The reduction Of the mortgage
debt by reducing the acreage of the farm
to the actual capacity to till and make
productive will be in the line of economy.
The changing of cone itions where by 100
bushels of grain is made to grow where
formerly 50 grew IS economy; the building
OF better homes and the enjoyment OF
better home comforts by the family on
the farm is economy; the independence of
actual ownership in a business which
recognizes no rival in its self sustaining
attributes is economy to mind and body

Cats and Dogs AS PurveyOrs of
Disease.

A common cause of the widespread
prevalence of infectious diseases has been
traced to an unusual and unsupported
source. 1t has been fonnd that cats and
other household pets are responsible for
the scattering of the microbes Of conta-
gious disease. Household pets are in the
habit of wandering out of doors, even
whe n the most careful vigilance is kept
over them. Cats and dogs especially are
in the habit of taking nocturnal excursions
to garbage-lsden alleys and into the
central point OF disease and contagi5n.
They have a particular penchant tor
making daily calls at our neighbours house,
especially when encouraged to come for
the sake of entertaining sick child Cats.
more particularly than dogs, on account
of their more domestic habits, have long
been suspected of being a partial factor in
conveying infection. Physicians and
students have of late begun a series of in
vestigations wherewith to prove their we'll
founded suspicious. And they have in
augurated a crusade against any sort of
living thing in the way of a pet, to prevent
their incursion and excursion where there
is disease
