Wind lump For Irrigation.

The wind pump, which many farm
ers now use to supply water for their
stock, could be used successfully for
irrigation without much expense or
the small streams of running water
might be gathered in reservoirs and
utilized for the lower grounds. The
gardeners and small fruit growers now
use these methods with great success
aud raise four or five times "a much
food on their few acres as they could
10 without their constant supply Of
water. This Intense farming with
means for irrigation must spread from
the suburban regions where it is now
practiced over wider regions through
the country until irrigation in times of
drought shall become common among
the farmers.

SECURING EARLY Lettncc.

The outdoor crop of spring lettuce
may be made several days earlier by
sowing the seed in some sheltered
place late in fall. 1t is not likely that
If sown now any of the lettuce will
some up this fall. A few leaves scat
tered over the bed will keep the seed
from injury, and it will sprout and
grow with the first warm weather in
spring. Almost every one has seen
self-sown lettuce on the beds where il
was grown and went to seed the previ-
Gus year. 1t is much more forward
than spring sown lettuce can be had
in the same locality.

II would DC better where there is n
rapid growth, if possible, to withhold
the stock from blue grass until mid
winter. The advance in grain values
has induced most farmers with live
stock TO put mp liberal quantities Of
corn fodder. This will prove a for
tunate reserve for the shortage in au-
tumn grass. The abundant rains of
early summer supplied a good yield of
hay, as rule. The hay market now
Is low compared with grain values

ues of stock food within the coming
