Sunflowers may become one of the
principal plants for growing in the hen
yard. There are several characteristics
about them that make them particular
ly adapted to this purpose. In the first
place they grow to such a height that
they cannot be disturbed after they
have STAINED their first start This In
itself is great advantage, for we are
all impressed with the fact that most
OF our plants that are desirable for
growing in such place are so low
headed that the hens are able to de-
stroy them in the first stages of their
development. But the sunfiower devel-
ops and develops till its great sunny
head blazes far above the fence. A
grove may be made of these plants or
. shelter belt. with patches of grass
between. The hens will find delight
full forest In which to wander during
the hot months. and in the cool months
of the autumn they will be kept busy
picking up the seeds that drop from
the now reversed heads. II beauty be
desired the stalks should be cut away
and burned as soon as the heads bavs
dropped their seeds

Clarence E. Norton. writing in the

mako the following extracts
The condition OF the soil. and the
season OF 1897. have been great finan-
cial drawbacks to Kansas farmers, yet,
II they study the conditions carefully,
II may, Ia the future. be of advantage
TO them. In the first place the winter
was more open than usual, and the
ground did not freeze as much as us
uai, and the cattle that grazed the corn
stalk fields all winter punched up the
fresh soil In great shape, and the COM
plant against the cloddy condition OF
the soil is general and louder than
usual. All this complaint results be-
cause the cattle sink little deeper
than usual into the soil Not single
year passes but what the cattle Will
make the same amount OF clods, only
we do not see them, and we are una
ware OF their presence. The coming
Intensive farmer will never allow any
stock, except sheep, to run In his stalk
nelds--in fact, there will be no stalk
fields. as the fodder will be all cut up
and hauled on to be fed. The farmer
who thinks he Is careful man, much
more careful than his neighbor, will
not allow his cattle in his stalk field,
except when the soil is dry, while
his neighbor will not allow them In
the neld every day, wet or dry, and
farmer No. thinks he is much wiser
than farmer No. 2. and he has great
pity for his ignorant neighbor who
leeds his stalks wet or dry. alike.
When the soil Is wet the cattle slump
down deep into the soil. and a clod Is
made below the bottom of the hoof-
print, just the same as a clod OF wood
Is formed In front OF the square point
Of a cut nail that is being driven into
/ board. AS this clod is punched down

The American stockmen are directly
Interested in the frozen meat trade
that distant countries are building up
with the European markets. Our own
trade Is bound to be affected to con-
siderable extent, though up to tnls
time we have not greatly felt the com
petition. The United States consul
In New Zealand reports that the frozen
meat industry OF that colony mas de-
veloped with extraordinary rapidlty'
and has attained such magnitude as 10
make its projectors proud. 1t was
started by New Zealanders in 1857
who formed the original freezing com
panies. It's present dimensions have
been attained by private enterprise
alone, and 10 this enterprise the mag
nificent fleet of steamers now engaged
In this trade between New Zealand
and England owe, In great measure,
their existence. 1t can hardly De
said that the introduction OF frozen
meat into the London market from
Australasia had advanced beyond an
experimental stage until about 1881
during which year about 17,OO0 car
casses of frozen mutton were shipped
to London from Australia, and also
limited amount of beef. 1t Is SAID
that only about one-third Of this ship
ment reached London in good condi-
tion, the other parts being described
as irregular in condition and unsatis-
factory.
In 1882 two shipments Of frozen meat
were made from New Zealand, com
prising about 5000 carcasses, which
reached their destination in good con-
dition. A small quantity OF beef and
about 100000 carcasses of mutton were
shipped to England from New Zealand,
while only one-half that amount was
shipped from Australia. In 1882 the
entire shipment of meats amounted to
1 ,707,328. This amount had increased
in 1896 to 1923, 576,544 pounds.
This whole business depends on the
cooling or freezing plants that have
been invented during the last two de-
cades. BY means of these machines
the air is reduced to, say, 70 degrees
below zero, and at this temperature the
meat Is quickly frozen. The steamers
that carry the meats also have cool
ing plants that enable them to keep
down the temperature of the air in
the holds of the vessels to point
where the meat remains permanently
frozen. The possibilities of these

the footprint. but II is near the sur

turned over with the pillow this thin
clod Is turned down out OF sight into
the bottom OF the furrow. and Is never
seen by the farmer again. He makes
perfect seed-bed OF the surface OF his
freshly-plowed soil. but does not see
the clods and air spaces that rest on
the bottom of the burrows where the

made by using perfectly dry earth
