Current Comment.

OATs.-There is moderate demand In
progress, but spot offerings are not large,
and firmer tone is noted
CHEEsE.-The market has experienced a
much hrmer tone during the week, and
prices are advanced for all choice grades
BEANs.-The market has not been active,
but the tone is firm and dealers are gener-
ally holding at S1.25 for choice hand-picked
marrow pea and mediums.
CoRN.-The market has shown quiet
demand during the week, but values have
worked higher, with sales Of steamer yell
low on track billed through at about Sic.
EGGs.-The market shows a hrmer tone
for choice stock, and sales have been better.
Extra Michigan will sell freely at 15c, but
the range of sales are at 144 to 15c for most
business done.
FLoUR.-The market shows continual
ton OF the boom and prices are held about
20 to Doc higher as rule. Buyers are tax
ing what flour they are forced to have, but
at the full advance have no confidence to
operate.
BUTTER.-The market has experienced a
firmer tone during the week, although the
demand has not been sharp at the higher
prices asked. Buyers will operate moder-
ately, and the prospect is for fair cleaning
up OF receipts. a.
LUMBER.-The market is quiet and is ex-
pected to be 80 at this season of the year
The situation in lumber, however, is a
strong one. There are not many spruce
cargoes coming and those that are being re-
ceived are selling firm at old prices. Ship
pers say that the New York market is even
more quiet than ours, but expect with the
opening of September to see an improve
ment in both.
WooL.-Sales for the week, IL 752, 900
pounds. One Boston house sold this week
more wool than the entire offering at the
New York offerings and a dozen sold more
than the actual New York sales. The auc.
ton sale has had no effect on the market in
any way. 1t has neither advanced nor low
cred the quotation on any variety of wool
The demand this week has ruled quite
steady and has covered we'll nigh every
grade. 1t seems quiet as compared with
the recent excitement, but glance at the
total of the weeks sales show that they are
enormously above the average. Owners of
wool are more and more tempted to realize
their profits as the market steadily ad.
vances toward the importing point, and
consequently sales are quite free and prices
very strong though advancing by no means
as rapidly as few weeks since.

Mixing Crops in the SiIO.

One of our readers in Vermont has
crops of corn, Hungarian grass and
kale, and wishes to know whether it
would be safe for him to make ensilage
out of the whole lot. Do you think it
would be safe to put the Hugarian
grass and corn into the silo together,
and will it be safe to put the kale in
with them2
Every year, we ensilo more or less OF
the larger Japanese millets, sometimes
alone, more often with Sofa beans, with
excellent results. l prefer to cut mill
let into two-inch lengths and use plenty
of water when filling-two or three
pailfuls on each load. When mixing
two crops in the silo, put in a load OF
one, then load of the other. Will
Hungarian and corn be ready for the
silo at the same time? Why not put
one on top of the other? If convenient,
should cure the Hungarian for hay.
H. M. THOMSON.
Massachusetts Experiment Station.
While / cannot recommend growing
Hungarian grass or millets for the silo,
yet, if it be cut at the proper time, be-
fore the seeds begin to harden, there is
no reason why it would not make a
first-class quality of ensilage. 1t is of
the utmost importance that it be cut
while green and suCculent, or it will
not keep well in the silo. If cut at the
proper time, it can be ensiloed with
corn, with full assurance of good re-
suits. Kale should,.by all means, be
kept out of the silo. 1t would endan.

have never put Hungarian grass OF
millet into the silo, considering them
like Timothy, proper subjects for hay
making. Nevertheless, if taken in
hand at an early enough stage Of
growth, ensiloing might be more sue
cessful than curing for hay, considering
the uncertainty of the weather at the
time of their maturity. Kale would be
about like cabbage or the tops of any
of the root crops. American expert
ence in this line is very limited, l think
Is not the pitting of root tops done
somewhere in continental Europei
Americans have been successful witt
refuse from cOrn-canning factories, also
with apple pomace. So why not witt
kale? If the experiment be made il
Vermont, the result will be interest

We have had no experience with Hun
garian grass for the silo, but know it t
be of high value for soiling. We have
made mixed ensilage of corn and COW
peas, with good results. Probably thu
best plan for your Vermont correspond
ent to pursue will be to mix the millet
the kale and the corn, by cutting loaC
or two of each successfully, and mixin!
well as the whole lot is put into tn
silo. There is good reason to believ'
that mixed fodder of that kind woulc
be preferable for feeding to any on

Manures.

Nitrogen in form that renders it So
luble in water is necessary for plant
growth. 1t is an abundant element in
the air, but not in shape to be used by
plants until combined with something
else. Nitrogen is, perhaps, the most
difficult of all the plant foods to keep
in place, and is the most costly element
in commercial fertilizers. One of the
most interesting problems of the age is
how the free nitrogen of the air may be
secured for the use of plants. The ex-
pertinent stations, eminent agricultu-
rists, writers and lecturers have de-
voted much time and thought to the
subject. AS naturally may have been
expected we have wide range of views
on the subject. Mr.. Terry holds the
extreme view on the one side, declar-
ing most emphatically and unequivo-
cally that the clover plant gets it's nj
trogen direct from the air and that by
its use in rotation of the crops all the
nitrogen needed may be obtained from
the air by this crop. On the other
hand, some other good authorities hold
q very modified view.
Alva Ayre in recent article uses
this language {:
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1897-08-25

81 believe that nothing has been
more unduly overrated by the farm
press in the last few years than the
power clover has of taking nitrogen
from the air and storing it in the soil.
The changes have been rung upon this,
and it has been 80 emphasized, that
many seem to believe that practically
all the benefits derived from clover are
attributed to this one fact-this nitro
gathering power. But the practical
farmer knows that nothing helps clover
growth more than top dressing of
barnyard manure that is rich in nitro
gen."
A correspondent of the Journal of
agriculture says: "It is probably safe
to assert that the presence of nitrogen
in the soil is due to plant growth dur
ing the ages past, and that clover
and other plants of the same family
(the legumes) have greater powers
of causing nitriication in the soil than
any other class of plants. Yet the fact
remains that during the growth of all
plants nitrfication goes on to degree;
and when the vegetation decays and is
incorporated with the soil, forming hui
mus.

Silage and SilOs.
Q-Should the walls of silo be per


Q-Should the walls of silo be per-
pendicular or otherwise?
Mr. Sission - Perpendicular every
time. We must have the walls of a
clio solid, strong and rigid.
Mr.. Miller-Make the silo, at least,
three inches smaller each way at the bot
tom than at the top. Mine is six inches
smaller on each side, and l now have
the finest silage that ever came out of
slo in this state. 1t settled finely and
kept perfectly. 1t was put in uncut,
and cost me but 1925 to put in twenty
tons. If there is any one here who Is
going to build a silo and fill it with
whole silage, he should make it six
inches smaller each way at the bottom
than at the top. If, however, the silo
is to be not more than twelve feet
square, l would not make it much
smaller. But is should be somewhat
smaller, as the silage will settle and
exclude the air better in such silo;
and we never can tell beforehand, how
much pit of silage will shrink; if we
could, we would know just how much
smaller to make silo of certain depth
and capacity.
Q-To Mr.. Sisson-You say you cut
your silage, instead of putting it into
the silo whole. Why do you do it?
Answer-It will pack more closely,
therefore, more of it may be put into
the silo. 1t will also keep better. 1t
can be put in easier, taken out at less
expense, and much veXation of spirit
saved. No doubt but that whole ST.
lage is preferable in one respect, it
does not develop 80 much acidity as does
cut silage. The more finely it is cut, the
greater the loss in that direction. But
cut silage is better form on which to
sprinkle the grain ration. All grain
should be fed on the coarse fodder.
With US, at least, five per cent more
milk is obtained by feeding the grain
ration that way.
Mr.. Markham would not have my
silage cut into the silo, if one would do
it for nothing. Nor am l in any hurry
to cut my corn. An early frost Injuries
it but very little, only the tops of the
stalks, and the leaves are injured, and
those | do not consider worth much.
If any one wants the leaves and tops
Of my silage corn, they are welcome to
them, if they will come and get them.
1t is the ears and that part of the stalk
below them that l am after, and these
are never injured by an early frost.
Mr.. Miller-The cost of uncut silage
is much less than that which is cut, to
say nothing of the loss in value saved,
and am satisfied the way to put ST.
lage into the silo is in the whole state.
If it is properly put in, there will be no
more loss from imperfect keeping than
in cut silage. l grow sweet corn for
sio, preferring it to either Pride of the
North, Leaning or any of the state
sorts.
Mr.. Smith-If you grow sweet corn
for the silo, it will be found much the
better not TO cut it into the pit, as it
develops much more acidity when cut,
than where it is put in whole. -Hoard's

Cutting Oats and Peas.

Oats are at the best stage for making
hay when they are in bloom, and just
before the grain forms. On our farm,
more or less oat hay has been made every
year for several years past. At first
we used to let them stand till the top
oats were about ready to turn. They
made very good feed cut at that stage,
but it was not real nice hay; it approach.
ed well towards oats and straw. In after
years we found that every time we cut
them greener the better was the hay
till now we find our COWS like it better
and do better on it when it is all hay
and no oats, and we supply the grain
they need from field that was har.
vested especially for the grain.
The time to cut peas and oats for hay
is when the peas are fit for table use
and the vines are still green. The oats
can be at little more advanced stage
than when used for hay alone, for the
reason that the large proportion of pro-
tein contained in the peas and pea vines
will, when mixed with the strawy oai
hay, make a well-balanced hay

The Sermon of the Grass of
the Field,

What difference, what vast differ
ence, there is in the yield of many
cows when they are first turned out to
pasture, writes CORRESPONDENT OF Ma
tional StOckmdn. The milk pals fill up
wonderfully, and the price of butter goes
down accordingly down as the surplus is
put upon the market. We have become
so used to seeing this phenomena that
we give it no more thought than the
coming of the mosquitoes, and take it
as a matter of course. AT least many
of US do, and but few lively dairymen,
who profit by the example that is so
regularly thrust before them, learn
lesson from it. All that makes this diff
ference is enough of the right kind of
feed. The COWS not only have enough
feed, but it has the proper proportion
of protein in it, and it also has succu-
lence. That is all there is to it, except
the warm weather, which does not COM
pei them to use part of their feed tC
keep warm. And all of these things we
may supply in the winter if we will.
Cow peas or clover for the protein,
roots or silage for the succulence, and
a warm stall to keep out the cold, and
our cows will hardly know the seasons
without looking in the almanac. A
vast number of cow owners will not
take the hint, but go on feeding corn
stalks in cold yard; but few will pre-
pare now by sowing some leguminous
crop to get the nitrogen, and by raising
roots, or building silo to supply the
succulence, and 80 have butter to sell
when it is comparatively high in price.
