Lime Benefits Clover end Timothy.
The experiments in lining by the
Rhode Island station were continued
through the season of 1897 with clover
and grass. With but one exception, the
crops showed marked benefit from the
application of lime. At four farms in
various parts of the State the unlimed
clover plots looked better at the begin
ming of the season, but before fall the
plants were puny and the crop almost a
failure. The ability of clover to gain
the upper hand of sorrel upon lined
plots has been fully demonstrated and
is an important discovery.
Where timothy and red top have been
found together, lining has Invariably
increased the percentage of timothy.
This increase has been so great as to
make the hay sell for 50 per ton more
than formerly harvested from the plot.
The great benefit usually derived from
adding wood ashes to the soil Is thought
to be not entirely due to the potash, but
in a large degree to the high percentage
of lime contained. AS it seems prob
able that ashes will be more and diff
ficult to obtain, it is urged that lime
should be applied in their place.-Amer-
ican Agriculturist.

Rroad-Tired Wheels.

A wagon going uphill takes more
force to draw it than when it is moved
on a level. When wheel sinks in
soft soil there is an elevation of the
ground in front of it equal to the depth
of the sinking. When a narrow wheel
sinks three or four inches in the
ground the effect is precisely the same
as if the wagon was going up the same
incline; when the broad wheel is used,
If it does not sink in the ground, this
obstacle does not exist. The surface
of the wheel does not interfere in the
least with the draught Of the wagon,
even on solid, hard ground, and it must
be evident that the broad wheel will
not cut into the road as the narrow one
will, and thus on soft roads must be
easier draught. By the use of broad
tired wagon when a new road is being
laid out, it will soon be rolled hard and
solid, so that even narrOw-tired
wagon will not cut in, but attempt to
make a road during the average har-
vest, winter or spring season with mar
row-tired wagons and the job will
usually prove a failure.-Roy Stone, in
Farm and Home.

The English Walnut.

Possibly few trees in the old world
are more profitable than the English
walnut, which thrives in England and
all over the northern part of the con-
tinent of Europe. The wood is espe-
cially useful for gunstocks and for
many articles of furniture, and is found
profitable from trees Of ten years of
age and upward. There is always good
demand for the nuts: so that there are
two distinct lines of profit-by the tim
Der and by the fruit. In our country,
they thrive in any portion of the East
ern States, although, as they progress
northwardly the tips of the last years
shoots are destroyed by winter. The
living portions push out again, how
ever, and generally bear as abundantly
as before.
In the vicinity of Philadelphia there
are numerous trees, planted by the
early German settlers, which bear ey-
cry year. Single or isolated trees some
times fail to bear fruit, on account of
the llen-bearing flower maturing and
scattering pollen before the nut-bear-
ing flower is in condition to receive it;
and, for this reason, crops are more
assured when a number of trees are
planted together. In this way, some
of the pollen-bearing catkins are condi-
toned so as to be in bloom before the
time that the nut-bearing flowers make
their appearance.-Meehan Monthly.

and strike out, right and left, with his
horns, and he soon established him
self as boss of the herd. Before it was
known that any harm was being done
nine of the steers had Jumps on their
jaws that soon filed with pus.
OF course an end was put to the reign
of the bull. The injured steers were
placed in stalls, and, after securely fix
ing their heads with the dehorning rig
for the operation, an incision was made
into the tumors and all the pus ex-
tracted. Then with a syringe an injec-
ton was made of half ounce of tine
ture of iodine and a strong solution Of
blue vitriol. A few had to be treated
the second time, the lump remaining
after burning with iodine. This was
treated with liniment made of forty
drops of creosote in one pint of turpen-
tine applied every other day for week.
All were cured. 1t is to be noted. how
ever, that in these cases there was no
injury or disease of the bone and moth
ing of cancerous nature.-TeXas

TOPICS FOR FARMERS
A DEPARTMENT PREPARED FOR
OUR RURAL FRIENDS.
If the Land Is Properly Fed, 1t Will

English Wa1nut-Why Broad-Tired
Wheels Pay.
Feed the Land,

The Importance Of having the great
est possible quantity Of manure is gen.
orally understood by farmers, even
when they fail to give proper attention
to the matter. Every crop taken from
the land, every pound of meat sold from
the farm represents an ascertained
amount Of fertility withdrawn, and
none will deny that we cannot continue
to draw from the soil without making
returns any more than we can draw on
the bank without making deposits. The
best bIooded COW ever stabbed could not
furnish rich milk on a diet Of straw.
Now, the bank that never fails and
cannot be broken is nature, and If we
make the necessary deposits of fertiliz-
ing matter into soil we can be sure of
getting back the principal with good in
terest A good crop of wheat-say
twenty-five bushels-has taken out of
the soil in the form of straw about 16
pounds of nitrogen, 23.2 pounds of
potash and 10 pounds of phosphoric
acid; in the form of grain, q pounds
nitrogen, 81 pounds potash and u
pounds phosphorc acid, making a to-
tai drain of 43 pounds nitrogen, 31.3
pounds potash and 22.4 pounds phos-
phoric acid. 1t will take three tons of
good unbleached barnyard manure to
restore those elements to the soil-G Our
richest soils cannot endure such drain
for many years without showing 1t.
Our uplands have to great extent been
so impoverished that it will cost the
value of the land to restore them to
their original vigor, and our wonder
full bottoms, although frequently en-
riched by floods and clover, do not yield
as heavy as when they were new.
When farmers pay as much attention
to raising the highest quality, 1t will
be comparatively easy matter to raise
premium crops Feed your land and it
will feed you.-Agricultural Epitomist.

Wee.,l., Crop Report.

The government weekly summary of
crop conditions is as follows:
The week ending September 90 has been
one of exceptionally favorable tempera-
ture conditions for the maturing of crops
generally throughout the country. No
frosts were reported from the states of
the Central Valleys, but light frosts caus-
ing no serious damage, occurred in por
tons of New York, New Jersey and Penn
sylvania, on the 21st Heavy rains de-
l,yed farmwCrI in portions of the lower
Missouri and lower Ohio valleys, and
proved injurious in the Central Gulf states
Ell i'll portions of Minnesota. On the Pa
cific coast the weather conditions have
been generally favorable in Washington
and Oregon, while rains, ranging from
onc-fourth to more than one inch, fell
over the greater part of Northern and
Central California, causing injury to
raisins and unthrashed grain. Such rains
arc very unusual in California at this sea-
son, and while causing some injury will
prove beneficial in replenishng the water
supply. Except in Northern Missouri,
where considerable late corn needs ten
days favorable weather in which to ma
ture, the corn crop is now practically safe
from frost, and much has been cut
The tobacco crop has been secured
with the exception of small part of the
late crop in Maryland, Virginia and
and Tennessee.
The soil conditions generally through
out the country, east of the Rocky Noun
tains, are highly favorable for blowing
and seeding Minnesota being the only
state in which the ground has been too
dry for this work. The reports generally
indicate that fall sown grain has germinat-
ed quickly and is coming up to good
stands
