A WASTE IN HAY.

Out Of hundreds Of stacks Of hay
which we noticed on a recent trip
through western state we did not
see one model, well built stack. Seem
ingly each stack was built to secure
the largest possible amount of waste,
the average height being about ten
feet, the width about the same and
the length suited to the caprice Of the
owner. In a stack SO built the waste
under ordinary weather conditions is
not less than 25 per cent and often
times much more. This is a waste con-
nected with western farming which
should be stopped. A man cannot af-
ford to lose such a per cent Of his hay
crop when raised on $50 land what
ever he might do on the cheap lands Of
the pioneer days Where the barn is
wanting in which to store the hay
crop canvas large enough to cover
stack holding so tons of hay would be
a good investment, and then, by the
aid Of hay fork and derrick, build the
stack broad and high. topping 1t out
after 1t gets well settled.

the other day, business was very slack
toward early morning, and we used to
get up four handed game regularly.
The players were myself and three 9TH
er operators at different points along
the line. We would call each other up,
and then every man would deal him
self hand, making his discards and
helping as desired. OF course, we had
to trust to mutual honor as to cheating,
but I think everybody was on the
square. All played freeze out, and the
loser had to treat when we got togeth-
er at headquarters, which was about
once month. 1 must confess that the
action was q little slow, but the game
was more exciting than one might

PREPARING ron WINTER.

One watching the habits and ways
Of wild animal and bird life will note
the fact that when left to their own
instincts such animals and birds will
always lay on surplus of fat in the
fall to help tide them over the severi-
ties of the winter season. Thus we
find all kinds of game in its best con-
dition in the fall; also the skins of all
fur bearing animals and the plulnage
of all birds. There is a lesson here
which should be needed by all stock
raisers. An animal poor in flesh in the
fall is always hard animal to win
ter and usually an improbable animal
to keep. This applies with special
force to milk cows and all young
stock. Stock allowed to become thin in
desh during the fall months will usual
ly stay thin all through the winter and
come out next season spring poor.

Broad leaved vegetables all exhaust
the potash in the soil where they are
grown. This fact explains why cab
bages, turnips and beets containing lit

in better shape, save. as being hoed
crops, they may clean the land, and
why crop of potatoes. II properly car

In the leaves Of these plants and not In

on before grinding, on the land.

TOTE FAIR.

Not long since we saw the wife of
pretty well fixed farmer dragging
heavy sack and hunting around the
place for fuel with which to cook the
evening meal, and as she found some
cobs or some sticks or pieces of board
she would put them into the sack. See
ing this woman thus working, we won
lered if her husband thought us much
of her as he did Of his cows, horses or
hogs. Now, you men who read this,
see here. Don't you secure at once, for
your own comfort and convenience,
each and all Of the improved devices
for doing your farm work? And don't
you know that you often go into debt
for them at that? The use Of these
Improved appliances has made your
work vastly easier and taken from
the farm very much of its old time
slavery and manual toll. Now, what
have you done in this line for your
good wife? Practically nothing at all.
No soft water, save as she can catch
some in a leaky barrel; no wood
house, no wood pile, no conveniently
arranged kitchen and modern cooking
utensils, no painted floor, no washing
machine, none Of the hundred and one
little inventions which SO tighten the
housekeeper's toll. And she, partly
because you are always preaching that
you are hard up and partly because of
her ignorance that such labor saving
devices exist, goes on uncomplainingly
There was time when poverty excus-
ed to some extent this neglect and
selishness, but that day has passed.

compel his wife to work in the old pow

fairness, q man should provide his
wife with the same improved facili-
ties for doing her work which he Sc
cures for himself, and If he won't do 1t

WHAT DEFoL1ATED THE OAKS.

WHAT DEFOLIATED THE OAKS.
All through northeastern Iowa and
quite large section of southern and
southeastern Minnesota the oak groves
i the past season We're almost defoliated
by an army of caterpillars which were
of kind new to all living in the terri
tory named. We had noticed their
work in previous seasons, but 1t was al
ways on an Insignificant scale until this
year, when they made clean sweep
and left hundreds of acres of groves
perfectly bare of foliage by the first
week in September. For our own salts
faction and also that we might be
able to answer through these notes nu-
merous inquiries as to the cause of this
trouble, we have been looking up the
pedigree OF this pest. the technical
name Of which Is Anisota senatorial.
The progenitor Of this caterpillar is a
night flying moth which lays its eggs
In clusters Of from 200 to 300 on the
underside Of the oak leaves in July or
early in August. These eggs soon
hatch, and the grubs commence their
work, preferring the leaves Of the
young bur oak trees most, but, falling
to get enough of these, taking those Of
the jack oak and black oak. Before the
first heavy frost they work their way
into the ground and remain In dor
mant pupae stage until next season,
when they emerge as the moth above
referred to, ready for another cam
paign. Were it not that the number
Of this insect pest is limited by para
site enemies they would soon entirely
ruin the oak groves of all the country;
but as is common in such cases, they
are subject to the attacks Of parasite
which, after 1t has increased year by
year for three or four years, wipes
them almost entirely out of existence.
This is their parasitic year, and the
chances are that they will not be
source Of trouble next year.

We know that 1t is but stating an
old truth over again when we say that
for all young and growing animal life
on the farm. for laying hens and milk
ing cows, heterogeneous foods are far
better than carbenkceous foods. NJ
trogenous foods make muscle, blood
and bone; castonaeeous foods make
fat. CioMer, oats, bran. clinical and
skammik are the common heterogeneous
farm produces, while corn is essentially
a carbopaceous food. fat maker.
Tbs is Why the hen which is fed Who'll
" On cornsgrpws fat and ceases to lay,
why the cow which has a corn diet be-
comes fat and ;shrinks in her milk yield
and why little pigs fed largely on corn
lack good frames, muscle and bone.

The best things raised upon the
American farm are used by the farmer
who produces them-the best milk, the
richest cream, the incest pig, the choic-
est fruit and freshest eggs. In Europe
the best things have to be sold to pay
rent and taxes, and the farmer lives on
what is left. 1t will be particularly
noted that the American farmer never
under any circumstances uses stale
eggs, he always seeing to it that his
town cousins wrestle with this prob
lem.

Church privileges affect the value of
farm land in the northwest in a very
marked manner. A Catholic or a
Lutheran particularly will pay from
IS to $40 more per acre for a farm To-
Gated in community of farmers of
his denomination than he would for
the same farm located in Methodist
neighborhood. And this is all right,
for 1t strengthens the church OF, that
community and secures a degree Of
unity and harmony there almost Inn
possible where the religious tastes of

Qa.) farmers went to Nebraska lately
to interview farmers there engaged in
raising and selling sugar beets. These
Nebraska farmers had been in the
business for five years and were COM
petent to give reliable information as

report brought back by the visitors
is to the effect that beets are q very

The best type Of western agriculture
will not allow the removal of the hay
and grain raised on the farm from the
farm, save in the form of live stock,
butter, poultry, wool and eggs. A well
managed farm should always require
a little more hay and little more
corn than is produced upon It'll It is al
most impossible to prevent farm SO
managed from becoming more fertile
and productive year by year.

It is to be regretted that the manu-
facture Of beet sugar by the most eco
nomical methods involves the expendi-
ture of such a vast sum of money,
about $35o000 at the very least, for
the establishment of plant and the
imperative necessity of securing
pledges Of SO large an acreage Of beets,
not less than 1000 acres, to be grown
contiguous to the factory, to furnish
1t material with which to work. If ii
were only possible to start this indus
try something on the plan Of the
creamery, SO that the work could be
done on smaller scale. there would be
no difficulty in getting this industry
started at once all over the west.
