first, cutting it down two feet in depth,
as shown in illustration, which forms a
shoulder upon which to build the brick
top. This top is necessary in order to
guard against frost chipping the ce-
ment, and also to allow smaller focus
at top, which allows the cistern to be
kept in better sanitary condition.
After the clay wall has become some
what dry, take mallet and chisel and
chip numerous crevices into the clay.
1t is now ready to trowel on the cement.
After the walls are well troweled down,
erect the brick top, laying each brick
with good cement mortar, cementing
and troweling down both inside and out
side of wall until top is reached, then
erect sewer tile as shown in illustration,
cementing it well. Fill excavation,
mounding up slightly, and you have a
cistern that is pure, clean and sanitary
and will undoubtedly give you no
trouble as long as you live. Make it
large enough to hold bountiful supply
of water.-George w. Brown, in Ohio

Tit for Tat on the Frontier.

Wv home farther west, Minnesota
was called one of the frontier states. 1t
was then new country, which invited
the emigrant with excellent climate and
soil, and Mr.. Darrell was one of those
who resolved to seek new home within
its borders.
The family consisted of four persons
husband and wife, and two boys, one
of whom was young relative under Mr..
Darrell's care.
The place selected as the future home
of the pioneers was in a lovely country,
we'll timbered and watered, and not far
from lands still occupied by some In
dams at that time on friendly terms
with the whites.
In the course of time town sprang
into existence few miles from the Oar
rell homestead, and as it was the near
est trading point, the family, or part
of it, was frequently found there.
The two boys, Frank Darrell and Har-
old Ross, were inseparable companions.
They were well-grown, strong and
healthy, and the fine air of the new
country kept them in good spirits.
Harold, the nephew, was inclined to
be self-willed, and did many things
against his cousins advice. But for all

Fertility from Road.ides.

On a very much travelled road there
is a great deal of excrement dropped
from the horses used in drawing vehi-
cles and from other animals driven
thereon. Most of the soluble parts of
this excrement are washed into the
bitches on either side of the roadway.
They accumulate in all the depressions
and make strata of rich soil, which is
well worth the labor of drawing into
adjoining fields as fertilizer. 1t is
best to do this while the field is plowed,
and the roadside should also be plowed
and cultivated, so that the rich soil can
be evenly distributed over the surface.

this, their little differences and petty
disputes did not interfere with the
warm friendship that existed between
them.
One day the two boys were returning
from hunt to the nearest lake, where
waterfowl were always to be found. AS
they were passing through piece of
young timber near a deep creek, the
quick eyes of Harold discovered two In
dian ponies on the bank.
snow we will have some fun" he said
to his cousin. "Those ponies belong to
two young Indians who are playing
duck in the water. Let us see."
The boys crept forward with consid-
cradle stealth, and reached the edge OF
the rather steep bank short distance
from the ponies.
The sight that met their gaze as they
peered through the rank grass was
novel and amusing. In the water were
two Indian boys of about their own
ages. The little reds were enjoying
themselves in the shaded element,
plunging beneath the surface, playing
catch and duck, and swimming races,
all in high glee.
They did not dream that the eyes OF
two white boys were watching them
like a pair of young hawks. Their
ponies, they thought, were safe on the
bank. tethered to the young trees, and
ready to carry them home. when they
were Trough with their swim.

Catching Rats on the Farm,

Set your steel trap in a corn-sack.
Roll in the mouth of the sack until a
space is left just large enough to con-
tain the trap. The rat sees the ears
of corn through the trap, and in reach
ing for them strikes the pedal with
his nose. The trap is thus sprung so
as to catch him just behind the ears,
and his death is instantaneous. This
is more humane than catching him by
the leg and causing him to suffer all
night. 1 have caught three successive
ly in that way, and l believe it will prove
successful in most cases. By the way,
there is no surer way to rid the prem
Uses of rats than by using sack partly
filled with corn in the ear. You are sure
of one about every night until they are

EARLY AND LATE CORN.
Farmers Should Plant Both Kinds
and Turn the Live Stock
Into the Fields.

Farmers should plant corn both early
and late, some kind of flint corn that
will ripen early, planting from one to
ten acres according to the amount of
stock kept, in place convenient to the
yard so the cattle and hogs can be
turned in on it. Then there should be
another piece to turn into when this is
eaten down. This may seem like a
slovenly way of doing, but it should be
remembered the husking of the corn is
the most expensive part of growing the
crop. 1t costs from three to five cents
per bushel to husk and put it in the
crib and then it has to be shoveled out
again. OF course part of the corn will
have to be husked to be fed later on in
good yard, for here is where great part
OF the profit comes in. Some may think
it costs too much to build fences to keep
stock in the corn fields, but good fence
will last at least IS years. The stock can
be turned in the field just as soon as the
corn begins to glaze. Stock fed in this
way will gain faster than when fed dry
corn, but care should be taken not to
leave them in the field too long at first.
They should not be turned into a field
of green corn in poor condition or the
result might be damaging and the prof
its from feeding in this way lost. When
the corn is in proper condition to cut
part of the crop should be cut, either
with a machine or by hand, and shocked
nicely in the field to be fed later with
out husking; this saves labor also, and
makes nice lot of feed to be fed out in
the winter. There is also good profit
in feeding sheep in the same way, that
is turn them in the corn field in the fall
and cut up corn and feed them through
the winter. Iwintered 100 sheep in that
way last winter and 1 never had sheep
do so well before. In order to get the
most profit out of corn it is necessary to
save as much labor as possible. There
are many ways of feeding corn at a
profit this time of year. Pastures are
getting short for the dairy cow and if
little corn that was planted for that
purpose is cut and fed to the cows every
night it will help out the pasture and
also the milk pail. There is no doubt
but what there is more profit in feeding
the corn on the farm if the farmer owns
his farm and manages in the righttway,
but renter on a farm for one year had
better sell his grain and other products.

DISEASES OF CORN.
They Are Not Only More Numerous
But Also More Destructive Than
Is Generally Supposed.

The corn plant is subject to rust that
is similar to the red rust that affects
wheat and oats. Usually it's presence
may be noted about the middle of sum-
mer, by the appearance of blotches on
the leaf of the plant. These blotches
are dust-liKe, and contain the spores of
the disease. Near the end of the sum-
mer the blotches become blackish. For
tunately the disease does not attack
corn until the plant has arrived at
stage of growth when it will not suffer
as much injury as it would if it were at
tackled in the earlier stages. 1t has
never been regarded as economically i'm
portant, yet a healthy plant is always
better than diseased one.
Prof. Burrell's bacterial disease of
corn is more serious matter. 1t causes
dwarfed condition of young plants on
areas of few yards to an acre or more,
and more usually than otherwise upon
the richest soil of the field. The plants
that are attacked are sickly in appear
ance, being more yellow than healthy
plant. Especially is this the appearance
of the lower leaves. The lower and old
er roots are badly affected as is also the
lowest portion of the stalk which often
| dies. On the surface of these diseased
stalks may be found spots that are of a
| brownish color and are corroded. After
the middle of the summer the sheath
leaves of the stalk will be found to be
| spotted on the outside. But on the in
side they are much more affected.
Sometimes the ears become diseased.
In bad cases everything connected with
the ear, husks, cob, kernel and silk are
| reduced to a condition that may be
called nothingness, and such ears often
| become moldy through and through,
the fungus being very white. The juices
| the ear, husks, cob, kernel and silk, are
shown by the microscope to be alive
| with bacteria. 1t was at one time
| thought that cattle feeding upon such
diseased corn would be poisoned, but,
| like smut, it has more recently been
| shown to be harmless.
Like smut in wheat the remedy for
| the disease is probably rotation, though
we are not prepared to say just what
| the rotation should be. However, if the
| disease is bad on any part of the farm,
| it would prove profitable to experiment
as to the proper rotation. 1t is not often
that diseases of this character will at
| tack crops that are dissimilar in charac-
| ter.-Agricultural Epitomist.

What SubsOiling Does,

Moisture may be retained N the soil
by subsoiling, blowing, narrowing,
cultivating, mulching, rolling and by
etable matter. Subsoiling increases the
depth of clayey and compact soils and
allows more water to enter them in
stead of running off on the surface.
Subsoiling is thus an important means
of preventing washing, and it also en-
ables the roots to penetrate deeper,
thus increasing the feeding area. Both
spring and fall subsoiling are of advan-
tage on stiff, heavy land.
