SORGHUM GOOD FEED.
Sugar Cane Is Pronounced an Al
most Perfect Ration for Cows
Sucking Calves.

Some are inquiring about sugar cane
for feed. We planted about ten acres
last year, writes Tom POINTING in Breed
ers' Gazette, drilling it in with acorn
planter. We fixed the plates so it
would drop about three seeds in place
and tended it as we do corn. We cut
and bound it with a corn-harvester.
You must be very careful in put
ting it in shock as the tops are so
heavy it will fall over. We had no
trouble in curing ours, but we had to let
it stand in the field until we were ready
to feed it. 1t has so very much moist
ure in it that it cannot be piled to-
gether until very late in the season. l
think it made six tons to the acre after
it was cured. / would like to ask some
one which has the most feeding quality,
sugar cane or Kafiir corn? We bought a
little Kaffir corn at sale the other
day and our herdsman does not think
there is as much feeding quality in the
corn as there is in the cane. If there
is 1would like to plant about half Katfir
corn instead of so much sugar cane. The
trouble with sugar cane in this black
soil is that it gets so tall that the wind
blows it over. Kaifir corn will not do
this. 1 think the sugar cane is grand
feed for cows sucking calves; it in
creases the richness and increases the
flow of milk. We fed a grade heifer on
sugar cane alone to try it and | never

EXTRACTED HONEY.
More Satisfactory Returns Than
Comb Honey.

1t is no doubt fact that extracted
honey is most profitable for large ma
jority of the bee-keepers of the country
because they are in a measure at the
mercy of dealers who will not pay the
price that extra fine comb honey is
worth, being obliged to pay nearly
level price for all that comes to them,
because they have neither time nor in
clination to seek market for the best,
preferring to sell in lump lots. For the
bee-keeper who is near large town or
city there is place to dispose of extra
white comb honey at price that will
make it an object to sell in sections.
The ordinary section contains about
IA ounces of honey, worth, when ex-
tracted, not more than seven cents. If
the comb is nice anS white and the sec
tions neatly filled they may be sold for
anywhere from 90 to 30 cents a section.
Wherever there are people who can af-
ford to indulge their taste for the best
and finest-looking products for their
table, there will be found market for
all the tirst-class comb honey that is Of
fered at price that will make extract
ing losing operation. Where comb
honey must be sold for ten cents a
pound and extracted brings seven or
eight cents, the bee-keeper cannot af-
ford to sell the comb, as it costs too
much time to make it, every pound of
comb taking as much time to make as
ten pounds of honey Farmers Voice.

All Extra Work Connts.

1t is always the extra work required
TO produce the best that pays on the
farm. In this. however, it is only the
rule which holds good everywhere else
The world is full of slipshod, lazy work,
ers-men who really do not want te
do any work, but who under compul
sion do just as little as they can anC
still pass. Thousands of farmers OBJ
ject to certain crops, because to work
on them is very disagreeable. Whal
they want is the crop that is most easily
grown. Such crops are always low in
price, precisely because of this habit
of human nature to seek the easiest
jobs, forgetting that precisely becaus,
they are easy jobs they are always over
crowded with applicants. - American

SELECTION OF SEED.
How Improved Varieties OF wheat
Are Being Bred by the Kansas
Agricultural College.

II is common among corn raisers to
maintain or improve given variety by
selection of the seed. Ears showing de-
sirable characters are set aside and
furnish seed for the succeeding crop.
Though not so convenient, this method
can be applied with equal success to the
selection of seed wheat. The expert.
ment station of the Kansas state agri-
cultural college is endeavoring to breed
up improved varieties of wheat. There
is no reason why the simple method of
selection should not be applied by the
individual wheat raiser. We would ad-
wise the following procedure: Before
harvesting, the grower should go into
the wheat field and select number OF
the most desirable heads. The basis OF
selection depends upon the wishes OF
the individual, but is carried on as in the
case of corn. Usually it will be upon
the basis of yield and quality. In this
case the heads selected should be large,
well-formed and with plump uniform
grains. The grain derived from these
heads should be grown upon plot of
ground under the most favorable condi.
tions. The grain gathered from this
plat furnishes the seed for the third
year. But before harvesting selection
of suitable heads should be made from
this for the next seed plot. In this way
the seed is each year imprived or at
least maintained tits present standard.
The size of the seed plot depends upon
the total area of wheat to be grown.
Furthermore the seed plot may be given
much more careful treatment than is
applicable to the field. 1t is best to have
the seed plot within the main field so as
to be entirely surrounded by wheat.
This lessons the loss from grasshoppers
and other insects, and gives the plants
better protection.-Farmers' Review.

CORN FOR FODDER.
II Should he Cut at the Proper Time
II Really Profitable Results Are
to BE Secured.

When corn is at its best, the glazing
stage, it has value of say 100 per cent.
As per cent. of this will be in the ear
and 55 per cent. will be in the stock and
leaves. OF the So per cent. in the stalk
and leaves, 60 per cent will be in the
stalk below the ear, which will be 80 per
cent. of the whole value. The feeding
value of the ear is mostly in starch, in
the stalk it is in the form of sugar.
From the glazing stage to full curing
the changes in the stalk are all against
the feeder, for while the sugar is all di-
gestible, in the ripening and curing
process it gradually changes to starch
and woody fiber, and becomes less and
less digestible, and thus loses much of
its feeding value. While the stalk at
its best was filled with sweet juice, that
fully cured, found in the rick or shock,
has not trace of sweetness left, but
has changed to wood or been washed
out; hence we see how important it is
that corn fodder be cut at the proper
time and handled in the proper way to
secure the very best returns. Upon this
point experiments conducted at the
Oklahoma station showed that corn fod-
der left in the fields until required for
feeding purposes loses much of its feed
ing value, but how large proportion is
not often considered by large number
of farmers. The results of these tests
showed a considerable reduction in the
feeding value of the corn stover, equal
in the opinion of those who conducted
the tests to fully one-fourth of its orig
inal worth, with corresponding in
crease in the crude fiber which is the
least valuable part of the corn.-Prai-

Bees swarm because they lack room
in the hive. The old queen and the
workers leave and give up the hive to
the younger bees. To prevent swarm
ing add more space at the top, so that
the workers can be provided with stor-
age room. 1t Is better to have one
strong colony than two weak ones, as
the bees can then more easily protect
themselves against enemies when they
are numerous. At this season the bees
can find plenty of honey plants, but
later on they are compelled to travel to
greater distances, and many are thus
destroyed, for which reason the colony
should be strong.

corn hog that won't net his feeder five

business sense to use some of that corn
to fatten bird that will bring twice as

ports, between which the fowl is laid
while being picked. The head projects
from the opening, and all blood drains
into the pail outside the barrel. As the
feathers are plucked they fall into the
bottom of the barrel, and are thus
entirely unstained. The picker sits on
box or stool at one side of the bar
rel. If more room is desired within
the barrel, saw off the top down near
ly to the middle, thus giving larger
opening. Hens feathers do not bring
large sum, but they should always
be saved, either for home use or for
the sum which they will bring, which is
really clear gain.-N. Y. Tribune.
