The Wealthy Appk = Winner.

Some fear has been expressed by our
hest horticulturists that possibly the
Wealthy would not prove equal to test
winter, and SO for years 1t has been
rated as inferior in point Of hardness to
the Duchess, Hibernal and other iron
clsds. 1t Is real pleasure to report
this apple as coming through the severe
test of the past winter in perfect con-
dition. This fact should largely settle
the question Of what apple to plant for
northern Iowa and southern Minnesota,
for there is no other apple which APP
proaches it in quality, produetiveness
early bearing, and Suitability. 1t now
has but one weak point-it viii over bear
and unless some attention is paid to
thinning the fruit it will bear itself to
death before it is 20 years old. Plant
the Wealthy apple.

Squirrel Tail Grass.
The Davenport Democrat SAYS:

The Davenport Democrat says:
Numerous lawns about the city are
showing the effectsof the winters freeze.
The clover that they contained, in almost
every instance is gone; killed etfectually
This is sad loss, but it has il compen-
sations. The joint grass, that common
ly makes its appearance about the time
that the summer drouth begins to make
use of the hose a necessity, is also
generally killed There are bare patches
on lawns all over the town where the
joint grass has gained the upper hand
and choked out the blue grass. With
prompt seeding, so as to give the blue
grass a start, it may be that the trouble
some joint grass may be kept under by
being replaced with the proper article. "
The Democrat is mistaken. The
Joint grass" or more properly speaking
the squirrel tailed grass" referred to, is
an annual and dies every winter. 1t is
propagated by the seed which it is
allowed to mature late in the fall The
only remedy we have found for it is
persistent and close cutting well into the
fall in order to prevent it maturing any
seed.

Stock Losses.

The estimated percentage of mortality
among farm animals, swine excepted
was higher during the twelve months
ending March 81, 1899, than for many
years past. The total loss from exposure
and disease was over 100000 head, of
which swine constituted 4l.a per cent,
sheep 29.2 per cent, cattle BAT per cent,
and horses AZ per cent. The losses of
swine and horses we're practically all

and sheep the loss from disease was

Assessment OF Feeders.

The District Court of Buchanan Co
has ruled IN case before it that where
farmer buys stock to feed and happens
to have such stock on hand January LIST
that he should only be assessed on the
value Of such stock kept by him on the
average for the previous year; thus, if he
bought 1900 sheep Dec. LIST he should
only be assessed on one-twelfth of the
value of such sheep. This case has been
appealed to the supreme court by the
supervisors of that county and final
ruling will be of good deal OF interest.

Now the fruit man had to spray his
orchard just at blooming time to protect
his crop from insects and his neighbor' g

Railway extensions in Iowa this year
are nearly all north and south lines.
Most Of these extensions are branches
of the Chicago trunk lines and are
evidently being built with view to
heading off as much as possible the
