stimulative to plant growth, until it is
chemically combined with other sub
stances. The clover and COW peas have
the peculiar faculty of appropriating.
transforming and retaining this free
nitrogen of the air in such wav as to
make the richest kind of plant food
from it. Wherever they will flourish
(and some of them do we'll almost
everywhere), this may be done at al
most no cost. OF all of them, crimson
clover is the most peculiarly adapted
to achieve this, and wherever it will
succeed it should be grown for this
purpose, il for no other.
It delights in a rather loose sandy
soil, and in a climate that is neither
very cold nor very hot. The seed
should be soWn almost universally in
the late summer or early fall, as the
little plants will not endure the heat of
mid summer, but will dwindle and die.
In the Puget Sound region it hes done
well when sown in the spring, the eli,
mate there being peculiarly moist and
cool, but instances of successful spring
seeding elsewhere are very fair. II
sewn before the days begin to get lit
tie cool, on the approach Of fa1i, the
little plants will surely die, but che
moist soil and cool weather of the fall
and the following seem to just suit
their growth. If not sown early enough
for the plants to get well rooted before
freezing weather, they will be heaved
out Of the ground and dried to death
by the cold, especially where there is
frequent free zing and thawing. Where
snow covers the ground all winter,
there is little trouble of this kind.
Experience has taught Mr.. Derby
and others, that some sort of protec.
tion in winter is very beneficial; al
though it is not always absolutely
necessary. Various methods are prac,
ticed to secure this protection.

the illustration, and the tuck should
therefore be toward the heads, so that
it will not puff out.
Before the time of hand binding har-
vesters all grain cutting machines were
made right handed, and they were
changed only to keep the tuck of the
band towards the heads. But this
change made the machine much more
unhandy for the team and driver.
The hand binding harvester with
men to do the binding is out Of date,
and 30 is the left hand machine, which
has been superseded by the McCor-
mick Right Hand Open Elevator, the
success of which makes it seem highly
probable that there viii be no progress.

machines in three years.
For three hundred years books on

that roller bearings when properly
used would lessen friction has been un-
derstood by mechanical experts for
centuries.
The applications of roller bearings to
grain cutting machinery was made. by
J. G. Perry in 1859, and his patent, mo.

CRIMSON CLOVER.

One of the best farmers and fruit
growers in Delaware, Mr.. g. 81 Derby,
is not only hand worker, but head
worker. He is called q Crimson
clover crank" and has the best of
reasons for proudly owning the nick
name. Crimson clover is one crop that
he grows every year, knowing before
hand that it will pay him. He has
studied the subject of enrichiDg the
soil, and made practical tests upon it,
until he has come to know quite well
what is best to be done, at least in his
soil and climate. On one point he is
very certain, that there is almost no
need to buy nitrogen. There is an in
exhaustible supply of it in the air and
if the right means are used, enough OF
it may be taken to make almost any
poor soil rich. He does it with Grim.
son clover chiefly, because that plant
seems to thrive with him wonderfully
we'll, is a great nitrogen gatherer, and
does not require as much time as any
other crop.
1t may not be known to all readers
of rural papers, that nitrogen is one OF
the most active agents in the stimula-
tion of plant growth, and the most
costly part of all manures. United
with water it makes ammonia, and in
this form it is taken up by the roots of
all plants, and produces mysterious
but most powerful effect up>n them.
Notwithstanding the fact that there
are unlimited quantities of it in the air
everywhere, it is not in form to be

THR REASON WHY MCCORMICK
CHANGED FROM THE LEFTTo
TIE RIGHT HAND BINDER.

It has been said that the convent
ences of one age become the necessities
OF the next; but no ordinarily sane
man will contend that the necessities
OF one age should become the incon.
veniences of the next. When binding
was done by hand the left hand cut
harvester was necessity. The grain
fell on the platform of the harvester
and was delivered into the receiver
with its heads towards the rear of the
machine. The men stood in the re-
ceiver facing the grain. With the left
hand machine the heads of the grain
are at the left hand of the man doing
the binding, SO in taking out the bundle
with the band around it, whether the
man turned to the front table or to the
back table he kept his position toward
the bundle itself-that is,- with the
heads towards his left hand hence, in
making the tuck he showed the ends
under the band toward the heads.
Grain is handled by the shocker by
grasping into the heads, shy, Z Er'777 -

Reports Of experience are always de-
Girable, for as no two persons have the
same experience, an interchange is
valuable, and points the way to profit
able results.
The amount of natural fertilizer
wasted on the average farm would, if
properly saved and used, pay fair in
terest on the value of the land and inn
proVements.
Drained land will keep a thicker soil
and grow better grass and more of it
than that which has not been drained.
Wet, heavy land makes rank growth
OF grass, scant in nutritive qualities.
Nitrogen abounds where there is de
cayed vegetation. Keep up the green
manuriDg. Sowing clover seed is add.
ing capital in bank, and it begins to
draw interest from the first day of de-
posit.
Make the farm work as light and
pleasant as possible for the young folks,
remembering that they cannot see it
from the same point as do their elders.
Routine work is tiresome to young or
old IN any calling.
A few hours spent in draining low
spot may allow a field to be worked
sooner than it could have been un-
drained. This has been a good spring
70 notice where drains are needed, and
TO see the good effects of them.
There is no disinfectant and deodor-
lEer that is as good as sunlight and air.
Keep the barns and stables as light as
possible during the warm months, and
Ioe stick will be much more comfort
able than it would be when shut up in
semi darkness.
A missing board or broken wire in
fence often allows stock to get into a
1ela OF growing crops and do great
uamage. There is never so good time
70 attend to these little breaks as the
aour In which they are first noticed.
II Is no loss of time, in the end, to make
irregular inspection of gates and fences,
carrying along the proper tools to make
repairs as breaks are found.

valuable feature of the Mccormick
roller bearing is seen in the form-or
cage as it is Called-which holds the
rollers from running together, and IL
for any cause the cage is taken from
the shaft the rollers will not fall out
and get lost. In order to avoid the
Mccormick patent the other harvest
ing machine company who claims to
be the originator of roller bearings in
harvesters has cut out the metal in the
ring at the ends of the rollers. II the
cage is taken out the rollers slip out
and become filed with grit, or worse,
get lost.
The methods of the McC Cormick Com
Dany result in an annual saving Of
many thousands of dollars TO the farm
ing public. New devices are not em-
bodied in their machines until long and
oft repeated trials have shown them TO
be practical. It has been the same
with roller bearings as with everything
else Mccormick experimenting 1s
done at Mccormick expense, and not
at the expense of the farmers, who are
too often duped by manufacturers who
rush into print for notoriety and bull
the market with impractical forms.

but modified form of it called tuber-

as certain test of the existence of the
disease, even in its very earliest stage,
and as an equally certain cure for ma
laria. Koch says his new remedy is
made from a chemical compound Of
dead bacteria, and he has given to the
world his method of preparing it.
The Iowa Station tests milk for bac
terra that produce bad flavor or foul
odors as follows: A number of test
tubes are prepared, sterilized, and
plugged with cotton'to keep out bac-
terra floating in the air, and as the
patrons of the Station creamery bring
in their milk, each lot is sampled and
the samples placed in these tubes,
winch are numbered, and memoran
dunn is made. After a Rpse of suh
cient time for the bacteria in the milk
to develop, the tubes are unsealed and
tested for odors and favors, and q
record of those found is entered in the
memoranda. Where Objectionable
odors or f1avors are found, the patron
who brought the milk is informed, in
Vestigation is made as to care and
cleanliness there, and the proper in
struction is, given. It has been found
that many odors and favors attributed
to weeds were really due to bacteria in
the milk. Bacteria causing bitter
taste develop best in a low temperature,
but warm weather is most favorable to
the great majority of others.
The Illinois Station has for two years
been testing the importance of coarse
feed for cattle. Calves were allowed
no grass, hay, or forage of any kind
from birth, but were given all the milk,
slop, and ground grain, oil meal, etc.,
that they would eat. Such calves ate
heartily and enormous quantities,
almost twice as much as those that
we're given roughness. One ate more
than half bushel of rich, concen
trated ground feed daily before it was
8 months old. Yet. it always looked
thin, though it was very heavy and it's
heeh was as hard as the muscles of a
laboring man. Such calves were SO
eager for something bulky that it was
necessary to keep them away from
their bedding, from dirt, splinters, etc.
At 4 months Did, the joints began to
swell, and they would occasionally
walk with reeling, staggering motion.
Still, they always had good appetites.
At this stage, one was killed, but no
Inflammation or other unusual condi
tion was found in any of the organs,
but there was absolutely no fat what
ever. Another one declined till it could
not hold its head up, when it was given
hay, which it ate greedily, and 8 hours
afterwards was chewing it's cud for the
first time in its life, had frightened
eye and most contented expression.
Another calf continued without bulky
food, occasionally rallyipg, but finally
died. All manifested the same sy mp
toms under this treatment for the same
length of time.

Much depends in feeding pigs on
giving their food at regular intervals.
Then the pigs will very soon become
used to this, and will not expect his
food until the next regular feeding
time comes. The old saying that a
squealing pig loses a pound of fat every
time it squeals has this much of truth
in it, that the irregular times for feed
ing which occasions most of the
squealing is the surest way to destroy
digestion. This in pigs is not So strong
as is often supposed. The pig is greedy
by nature. Others must see to il that
