Selecting a Moving Machine.

The past has demonstrated the fact
that the moving machine is short
lived. The gearing and drive wheels
last all right, but the difficulty lies in
The cutter bar and pitman rod and
ooxes. They will all cut as slick as
'ibbon when new, but after they are
ased year or two the knife gets worn,
the pitman boxes loose, and the edge of
the guard plate gets worn rounding
Chain and cog gear, bolt and roller
bearing may be all right, but when
select machine / will look mostly at
the cutter bar and pitman. / don't
think the knife should rub all of the
length of the cutter bar, but have four
or five bearings or supports on the back
of the knife to hold the knives down
snug and tight on the guard plate, and
when these bearings and plates to hold
the knife down on the guards get worn
they can be replaced with new ones at
small cost. The plates in the machine
should be self sharpening sickle edged
perhaps. They also should be so that
they can be replaced with new ones.
AC AAlAS Hedo pOA sHOulu NC dlIduSeu
SO that it can be kept tight and the pit
man bar the same, and after a few
years use get a new knife and bear
ings and box, and the machine will cut
nearly as well as new one and save
at least $50 to $40. The main thing
is to keep the knives and guard plates
sharp and close together and the pit
man boxes tight, so as not to lose any
motion This being carefully looked
after before they get loose the knives
and pitman boxes will wear lots longer,

Rape For Pasture.

Rape is used chiefly for pasturing
hogs or sheep Beef cattle have been fed
on it with. good results, but with milk
cows the rape is likely to give a strong
taste to the milk 1t is member of the
turnip family, says The Rural New
Yorker. We have found it excellent
pasture for hogs. At the Wisconsin ex-
pertinent station experiment shows that
rape gives better results for hog feeding
than clover Many sheep growers broad
cast the rape seed either alone or mixed
with crimson clover seed, in corn at the
last cultivation. After the corn is cut,
the rape grows up and, in an open win
ter, will give fair pasture till Christ
mas The Dwarf Essex is the best va
riety. We sowed rape broadcast in
crimson clover in May last year. 1t
gave more or less feed during the season,
and some of it has actually come
through the past hard season, alive and
green.

SEED POTATOES.
The Ohio stations Plan For Growing
and Keeping Seed.

and keeping Seed.
The Importance of good, sound, un-
sprouted potatoes for seed is a matter
concerning which there is no difference
of opinion, but how to secure such seed
is a question upon which all are not
agreed. Some would send north each
year for new stock, while others believe
that the southern second crop potatoes
are superior to other seed because Of
the fact that they do not sprout so
quickly in the spring.
1t is sufficient to say without going
into details that the Ohio experiment
station has found that the locality
where the seed was grown is matter
of less Importance than the manner in
which the seed is kept which is equiv
.alent to saying the condition of the seed
before planting determines what the
crop is to be far more than does the lat
1tude where the seed was produced.
When equally well preserved from
sprouting, our own seed potatoes have
given as good results as those from Ell
Their north or south. Cold storage Ohio
seed potatoes have given as good crops
as those from Maine Or North Carolina
Cold storage is not convenient for all,
however, and means must be adopted
20 obviate the necessity of it. The east
est plan is to grow seed potatoes late in
the season by planting about the 1st of
July.
To carry out this plan preparations
need to be begun as early as the LIST of
May. Ordinarily potatoes will not keep
in condition for planting until the 1st
of July, but if they are taken from the
cellar before they have begun to srrout
or when the sprouts are just starting
and spread out on the barn floor or loft
or some place where they will receive
light they will throw out short, stubby,
green sprouts about half an inch in
length and then remain in that condi-
ton for months The potatoes must be
only enc layer deep and preferably seed
end up. All of the eyes will not throw
out sprouts, and in cutting the pieces
should be larger than for spring plant
ing. When planted, these potatoes will
come up quickly and make their growth
in short time and almost surely give
good crop.
In 1897 the Bovee gave, with the
treatment above described, at the sta
ton, 200 bushels per acre, and in 1898
the Enormous yielded 800 bushels per
acre, which was better than the early
crop. Late varieties do as well by this
method of treatment as early sorts, but
usually the yield is less than from
early planting.
The object Of this method of growing
potatoes is to secure seed that will keep
in common cellar without sprouting,
and for this purpose it is far superior to
seed grown in the ordinary manner.
1t may be said also, that potatoes
grown from sprouted seed are less scab-
by than those grown from seed taken
from the cellar and planted at once.
Late planted potatoes are less liable to
