Cook House.

Where the '1ay of the land" is right
to accommodate such construction
as Is shown in the cut, this grain, vege-
table and cook house will be found one
of the most convenient structures on
the farm. The end that Is enclosed In
the side hill is used for the safe stor-
ing of vegetables. The central room
is occupied by a boiler In which are
cooked the rations Of vegetables and of
grain. the latter being housed In the
opposite end from that occupied by the
vegetables. If this building can be
placed near to the quarters occupied
by the hogs or poultry, provided large
numbers Of either Of these animals are
kept, the combination Of vegetables,
cook room and grain bins will be found
especially convenient. The vegetables
are placed in their own apartment,
either by carrying them in through the
cook room, or, what is better, by put

PuIyerization.

Perhaps but a small per cent. of
farmers have as yet realized the i'm
portance Of thorough filming Of the
soil. Nature provided for this in vir-
gin soils, by filling them with roots or
plants, but we must do it to quite an
extent by mechanical means. Many
soils called barren are simply com.
pacted and heavy, so that the feeding
roots Of plants cannot penetrate them.
A clod yields no nourishment to plants
till crushed.

1t knocks out all calculations of at
tending to business in the right way
for day when we wake up In the
morning sore and stiff. The disappoint-
ment lies In going to bed all right and
waking up all wrong. There Is a short
and sure way out of it. Go to bed after
n good rub with ST Jacobs Oil and you
wake up all right; soreness and stiff
ness all gone. So sure Is this that men
much exposed in changeful weather

use at night to make sure of going to

Birds Carving Seeds.

DR.. Howard, the new secretary Of the
American Association for the Advance
ment of Science, writing of the manner
in which seeds are carried to great dis
tanccs by birds, recited an experiment
of Darwin which had a curious result.
Adhering to the leg of wounded par.

weighing 6h ounces. From the seeds
contained in this ball he raised thirty.

species.

The facilities which the farm expert
ment stations In every State provide
for the analysis of fertilizers offered
for sale have resulted In running those
out of the business whose goods were
not up to the representations made.
The farmer who has money to invest in
fertilizers can now be safe In reckon
ing that he will get his moneys worth.
If 1t does not pay him 1t will be because
he is too far from market to make his
fertilizer produced crop available, or
because having applied the fertilizer,
he has neglected necessary work, and
allowed the fertility to run to weeds.
while the crop he has planted is crowd
ed out

Peanuts a Renovating Crop.

The peanut belongs to the order of
leguminous crops, and, like the clovers,
1t has the power through nodules on its
roots to decompose air in the soil.
There is considerable heterogeneous mat
ter in the peanut, and this, with his oil,
makes 1t very nutritious food for any
purpose. though 1t requires much chew
ing and good digestive organs. Where
the peanuts can be grown they are Of
ten sown the same as peas, and hogs
are allowed to harvest the crop. Be
sides thus fed on the land, the soil rap
idly gains In fertility. and after a crop
of peanuts it is ready to produce good
crop Of anything else that Is planted.

Farmers and stockmen agree that

Wheat Ia AIways Growing.

Wheat Is grown all over the world,
in the southern as well as In the north
ern hemisphere, and, as the winter of
the southern half Of the world occurs
when we have our summer, the Chill
ians and Australians are sowing and
reaplng wheat while the northern hem
isphere is wrapped in snow. In so many
countries is wheat grown and under
such diverse conditions that there is no
month in the year during which wheat

on In some part Of the world.

MuIching a Strawberry Bed.

The chief object of mulch is to hold
the frost In the ground, not to keep 1t
out. 1t is the freezing and thawing in
spring that injure the plants by lifting
or polling the roots and leaving them
exposed. Wait till the ground is frozen
hard enough to bear up wagon and
then cover and leave the mulch until
the plants grow through 1t in the
spring.

Breadwinners OF the United States.

In 1870 there were Il, sos, 923 persons
engaged in supporting themselves and
the remainder of the peOple-that Is to
say, 32.43 per cent. of the total popu-
lation were so engaged. In 1880 the
number Of breadwinners uEs 1922
900, or 34.87 per cent. of the total popu-
lation. In 1890 this number had risen
to %, 1876, 661, or 1851 per cent. of the
total population. BY "breadwinners"
Is meant all who are engaged either as
wage earners or salary receivers, or
proprietors of whatever grade or de-
scription, and all professional people
In fact, everyone WHO was in any way
employed in any gainful pursuit. The
figures quoted show that the proper
ton Of the total population thus en-
ployed Is constantly increasing. Anal
yzing the statistics, we find some re-
markable results, and In general that
the number engaged In the lowest
walks of business, laborers and the
like, Is decreasing In proportion, while
those employed In the higher walks
are increasing in number relatively to
the whole population.

On many farms the woodland is ne
elected so much that 1t Is constantly
growing less valuable instead Of more
valuable, as II should. II 1t Is thinly
set, or II nearly all the trees on 1t have
attained their growth. 1t will probably
ply better to clear 1t or and let new
piece of land grow up with forest trees
of the kind you believe will prove most
profitable. Where the seeds are sown
and properly cared for, the trees can
after a few years be thinned out, so as
to ave more room, and this will fur
nish the annual wood supply with
greater profit than can come from con-
tinuing to cut out the decaying trees
of an old woodland, whose young
growth is small.

Its ammonia. But potash salts are not
at all caustic, and IL they were applied
with the ashes they would absorb the
ammonia as fast as the caustic potash
could liberate II. Even the caustic
potash in wood ashes Is soon made into

so that neither ashes nor potash salts
