Little Child Killed.
Rich Hill Review.


Arcilla Henry, the FIVE yeer-old
daughter Of Mrs. Wilton Madison,
met with tragic death in the north
part of town late Saturday evening.
The little girl was in a wagon with
her step-fasher, who was preparing
to do some hauling. Mr. Madison
laid down the lines and jumped from
the wagon GA some errand or
another, and as he did so, one OF the
animals hitchel to the wagon reared
around, fitting the vehicle to one
side. This overbaIanced the child,
who was sitting on the spring seat,
and the little one fell to the ground.
1t struck squarely on It's head and
its neck was broken Death was
almost instantaneous.
The funeral was held yesterday
afternoon and the body was buried
in Green Lawn cemetery.

The action was in ejectment by

Canterbury being the purchaser. In
1892 LOOMS caused the sheriff 10
advertise and sell the land, claiming
he had not ordered the former sale.

The Apple Tree BOrer.

Now is the time Of year, II 1t has not
already been done, to search out and
kill apple and peach tree bOrers. Various
experiments have been made in endeaV-
ors to find a good preventative or some
treatment which will keep the borer
away from the tree, but nothing seems
as effective as the old-time method with
knife and wire. The grub has been
growing all winter and every additional
day he feeds now Is liable to cause great
damage to the tree. It more than pays
to 20 through the whole orchard for the
sake OF saving one tree from girdling.
The borer Is even more destructive in
small orchard trees than with old trees,
whose bark sometimes gets so tough rs
to exempt the tree from its attacks.
II is not difficult to tell where the
borer Is at work. The apple tree borer
throws out a red saWdust resembling
apple Dumice which Is to be found at the
base Of the tree. The grub works in the
bark of the tree at just about the point
Of contact with the ground, and near to
the roots of the tree, where the egg Is
deposited by the moth In early summer.
Hence clearing away all rubbish from
around the tree and banking 1t five or
six inches high with clean earth in June
will tend to keep the moth from deposit
ing the eggs.
The peach tree borer causes the tree
to exude gum at its base which can
be easily detected. The grub is large
and white. AS many as a dozen peach
tree borers are sometimes found In a

FertiIizlng rlaterial.

There is always a vast amount Of good
fertilizing material on the farm, ma
terial of but little value in itself, but
when combined with other materials
furnishes an enriching element one can
not afford to lose Taking the autumn
leaves as a basis, adding to them coal
ashes and then layer Of barnyard ma
nure, and we have a foundation for
compost heap onto which may be thrown
old lime or plaster, soil from road
bitches, muck, the greasy water from
kitchens and other refuse from the house
which cannot be disposed Of in any other
way. Add to it at every opportunity
anything which in combination with the
other materials will make plant food,
using lime in sufficient quantities to keep
in subsection any odor arising from the
surplus Of greasy materials.
There is enough material which may
be gathered from time to time on the
farm to start several compost heaps,
each Of which may be forked over in the
late fall and the material then applied
to the soil, or il not sufficiently well
rotted, the following spring. 1t will cost
but little to gather them, but will add
many dollars to the crops, to say nothing
OF added cleanliness about the farm.
If farmers were as careful about their
waste products as are manufacturers,
they would soon find way Of making
money by their use surprisingly easy.

grain crops without needing to purchase
any feed. Where dairyman wishes to
feed his herd without purchasing grain
he should raise alfalfa, planning to pro-
duce three tons for each COW giving
milk, besides enough to feed his other
stock. Alfalfa Is the cheapest milk-pro-
ducing feed within the reach Of the Kan
sas farmer
II dairyman cannot provide alfalfa
for his cows next winter he will have to
provide grain. Good forage crops for
the dairyman are fodder corn, sorghum
hay, early cut miIlet, Kaffir corn, oat
hay and mangles. Plant the fodder corn
in rows three and one-half feet apart,
dropping grain six inches apart in the
row; cultivate thoroughly; put up In
large shocks and feed without husling.
Sow the sorghum broadcast or drilled
in, cut early and either stack or put up In
large cocks. Plant the KafElr corn in
rows three feet apart, with plants six 10
eight inches apart in the row; cultivate
as for corn; cut and put In large shocks
The cheapest way to feed Kaffir corn Is
to take 1t directly from the fleld to the
feed lot and give to the cows After the
COWS have finished eating, turn in the
hogs. They will eat the grain which
shells OF and that not digested by the
cows. II this method is not practicable,
the Kafiir corn can be topped and the
heads fed to the COWS, or the heads may
be threshed and the seed ground before
feeding. For oat hay, sow about four
bushels Of oats per acre; cut when the
oats are in the milk, cure and handle as
hay. For mangles plant long red and
golden tankard; plant and cultivate the
same as for beets; feed the long red first,
as. the golden tankard keeps best.
A variety Of feeds will give better re-
suits than one or two feeds, though the

Growing Potatoes PrOfitabIy.

One of the most successful potato
growers in the country recently gave
his methods publicity before a meeting
of horticulturists. He claimed that by
turning under two or three clover sods
and thus securing a large amount Of
humus in the soil he could grow crop
Of potatoes without drop Of rain from
planting to harvest. He grows only
medium early sorts, thus enabling him
to SOW the land to wheat after taking on
a crop Of potatoes. Paintings are made
four inches deep, in drills thirty-two
inches apart and from twelve to twenty
inches between the pieces, using from
six to eight bushels of seed per acre.
II might be that this quantity Of seed
would be much too little unless the soil
was rich and well prepared.
Before the potatoes are up the soil
should be worked twice with smooth
ing harrow to loosen the surface soil and
kill any starting weeds. AS soon as
the rows can be made out cultivator
should be used, the teeth being run four
inches deep, but later, when the tops are
four to six inches high the cultivation
should be shallow, not more than two
inches deep At least once week, and
as soon as the ground Is in condition
after rain, shallow cultivation should
be given up to the time the vines cover
the ground. Much Of the cultivation may
be done with the weeder, thus keeping
the weeds down as well as giving the
necessary cultivation. If the soil is rich
in humus and a proper amount of plant
food furnished, the frequent stirring OF
the surface soil will result in a good crop
even in dry season. AS soon as the
plants begin to blossom the cultivation
must cease or 1t will blight the setting
OF the potatoes and by that time the
vines will be large enough to shade the
ground and keep down the weeds.

The Grain of Butter.

The market demands that the grain be
properly preserved in butter. No one
likes salvey butter. In churning the agi-
tation af the cream separates the butter
fat from the milk and forms 1t into small
globules or grains. More agitation or
working will gather it into larger grains
and finally into large mass. Two much
working will destroy these grains and
give the butter a sticky, salvey consis-
tency. The skill lies in knowing just
how to work the milk and water out and
work the salt properly into the butter
and not break down or destroy this
grain. And this skill is what consumers
are willing to pay well for. In order to
preserve this grain the churning must
be stopped when the granules are about
the size OF wheat grains, and thereafter
the butter must be worked and handled
with delicacy, care and skill that can
only be acquired by experience and close
attention. If this grain Is once de-
stroyed 1t cannot be restored, and the
destiny of that butter is fixed. 1t must
pass as a low grade and bring a low
price.

show that no regular methods have been,
as general thing, adopted. Where
stone roads have been constructed, not
sufficient attention has been paid to
keeping them in repair, the tendency be-
ing rather to let them take care OF them
selves, and to push work Of further con-
struction. This Of course produces un-
favorable results. Roads, when once
constructed at large cost, for obvious
reasons should be kept In good COndi-
ton, rather than left to ruts and holes
while new construction Is undertaken.
