Crop Outlook is Fine.

A representative OF the Transcript
returned Friday evening from a trip
through the eastern and south
eastern portions OF Morrison county,
and during the entire trip he met
none that We're not satisfied with
the present outlook for a fine crop
this harvest. Farmers are all busy
now either haying or harvesting rye,
and there is a fine crop of both in all
sections. There is, of course, some
difference OF opinion among the
farmers in regard to the weather
necessary within the next three
weeks, that being the time estimated
by all for the beginning of the wheat
harvest. Some think that rain lis
necessary, while others say that it is
not. The only thing to be feared
they say, is the hot winds, which
have not as yetprevailed this season.
The present weather is quite hot,
too hot in fact for small grain, .but
so long as the cool winds prevail
and the nights are cool with heavy
dews the grain crops are in no
danger.
Corn is somewhat backward. but
the weather of the past week is
bringing it along rapidly, and there
is every prospect OF good yield of
corn also.
Crops in Buchanan town are per-
haps the best this season, due to the
fact that the lands are newer and::so
situated that the heavy rains OIL the
early part of the season did then" no
damage. However, Pierz, Buh,
Morrill, and Bellevue will all harvest
an immense crop unless some disas-
ter comes before harvest time.
A similar trip was made by the
same representative four years ago,
and the change in the extreme east
ern part of the county in that time
is wonderful. The cultivated area
OF old farms has been extended, new
farms opened up, and many new
settlers have come in, mostly into
Morrill, town, Roads through Buh,
Pierz, Buchanan and Bellevue have
been improved greatly. Pierz alone
has graded over twenty miles OF
road this season with the grader
purchased this spring, and Bellevue
has added many miles Of good roads
this season by the same method.
Morrill, town needs roads. There is
a fair road from Morrill, to Royal
ton, but the road from that town to
the village of Buchanan is still in bad
condition and not being laid out on
section lines, is being fenced up, caus-
ing great Inconvenience to travellers
over it. However, the time is not
far distant when Morrill, will have
good roads, as we'll as every other
modern conveniences. It's soil is the
very best and there is a thrifty class
of settlers there, and that is a COM
bination that is sure to win.

NEW BUTTER MARKET.
American Product Brings Five Gents
Pound More In Berlin Than
the Home Article,

A cablegram from Berlin announces
that the other day in Germahy's capital
city American butter sold over all com
petitors at an advance of 20 pfenni9,
or five cents of our money.
When we consider that GERMANY has
been the most persistent foe to Ameri-
can agricultural exports, going so far
even as to attack our apples and shut
them out of her markets, we may see
in this incident hopeful change. But
we may be sure of one thing-that but.
ter was sold on its merits and the con-
sumers paid five cents more per pound
for it than other buffers could be had,
not because it came from the United
States, but because it was gilt-edge in
quality, pleasing in flavor and bore the
stamp of honesty and purity.
This is only one incident, but 1t in
dicates great possibilities, not along the
line of oleomargarine and process but
ter, but in the future of the first-class.
pure article, such as American dairy
men know how to produce, can produce
in almost unlimited quantities and at
less cost than any other people in the
world. What occurred at Berlin will
be possible in many other cities of
Europe if we but keep our standard
high, and insist that nothing but the
genuine article be permitted to leave
our shores.-Farmers' Voice.

LICE HERDED BY ANTS
Parasites Pastured an the Roots Of
Peach Trees for the Honey Dew
They Furnish.

Many Ohio peach orchards have been
suffering from the attacks of the wood
louise or aphis, as it is more correctly
known, and complaints were sent in
from all over the state to the agriculture
al experiment station at Wooster asking
what should be done to get rid of the
pest. The lice were found on the roots
Of the trees, where they had stripped
on the bark in order to get at the sap
more readily. The authorities tried a
number Of insecticides, but without
success, for whenever the insecticide
was strong enough to kill the lice it also
killed the tree. And, after long series
of experiments, the conclusion has been
reached that the only way of getting
rid of the lice is to exterminate the ants
the aid of the ants the aphis will be ut
terly unable to get to the roots of peach
or any other trees.
The aphis occupies a queer place in
the insect world, for the ants, Lasius
Americans, use them for mich cows,
herding and caring for them very much
as man tends his cattle. In the fall the
ants collect the eggs of the aphides,
carry them to their homes and care
for them through the winter. AS soon
as spring opens and the eggs hatch out,
the ants start out to find suitable peach
tree pastures. The younger and more
tender the tree the better. The ants
burrow down into the ground close to
the bark of the tree and then run a
series OF galleries out along the roots.
After the galleries have been completed
the ants carry the young aphides to the
pasture ground, and, gnawing away the
bark on parts of the roots, place the
aphides around the edge in order that
they may suck the sap freely. Here the
the lice are kept prisoners for the terms
OF their natural lives, the ants taking
turns at herding them and keeping
plenty of fresh roots exposed.
VI course, the ants do not 90 to all
this trouble without reward. From the
back part of the abdomen of the louise
project two glands which produce
sugar or honey dew, as it is called. This
is greedily devoured by the ants, and
the lice are carefully tended in order
that they may produce as much of it as
possible.
The depredations of the lice are not
confined to the orchards. The corn
fields also suffer. The ants burrov
down to the roots of the corn stalks and
place the lice there just as they do on
reach trees, and the crops suffer in con-
sequence.-N. Y. Sun.

To Keen Out Tubercu,o.,.


In keeping the herd of dairy cows
free from tuberculosis a few general
rules at least should be observed. First,
know that the herd is free from the dis
ease. Then do not bring new cow into
the herd unless she has been first tested
by taberculin. If mil is taken to a
creamery and skim-mi1k brought back.
do not permit it to be used till it has
been pastuerized. This will not only
make 1T safe to feed to calves, but If It
Is fed to pigs will also prevent the dis
ease being spread in that direction,
which means its getting a foothold on
the farm. Do not under any circun1-
stances permit strange cattle to run in
the pastures or occupy the stables.
Above all. do not permit consumptiye
person to take care of the cows.-Farm-
