Producing Redtop Seed.

Redtop seed of fine quality is grown
on our prairie soil in large quantities
and usually with fair profit, depend
ing In great measure upon the char
acter of the soil, writes G.. NJ. Davies
of Wayne county, Illinois. in the New
England Homestead. Very little is
grown on the white oak soils. Seed
is usually sown in February on corn
or oat stubble OF ground prepared in
the fall. Fall seeding after cowpeas
or buckwheat will usually produce
fine seed the next year. Spring seed
ing is always moved about the 1st of
August, but produces little seed. The
grass, when ripe, is cut, cured and
stacked as for hay. Threshing is done
with small grain separator, remov-
ing part of the concaye teeth and shut
ting off the blower. A No. 90 screen
is used as rule. The best machine
for threshing red top seed has not APP
peared. For the best results we de-
pend on the experience and good judg-
ment of the machine manager. The
seed is sacked in five bushel burlaps
and sold in the chat.
Dealers base their prices on the
amount of clean or export seed in q
bushel of IA pounds. There are no
regular market quotations, the price
running with the supply and demand.
For sowing prefer the clean seed,
3 1-2 pounds to the acre. The hay
threshed makes good feed, but it is
too short to handle easily. One Of
our growers runs baler behind the
thresher, one engine pulling both ma
chimes. This saves all the hay. Red
top is our best pasture grass, growing
we'll on thin, dry soils, standing close
grazing aud any amonnt OF tramping.
Is self-seeding, mnch easier to get o
stand of than timothy. II properly
cured it makes good hay. 1t is sur
face feeder, leaves few roots in the
sol and has poor reputation as soil
improver This county produces
about all the redtop seed harvested in
the United States. The soil aud sur
roundings seem especially adapted to
the crop and farmers have become
skilled in its culture and are looked to
for the annual supply.

Automatic Railroad Gates.

Berlin's Society of Railroad Inter-
ests offers prize of $500 for an ac-
cA)table scheme for automatic gates at
railroad crossings. The provisions
are that the gates ut be closed by
the oncoming train about two min
utes before the train reaches the cross
ing and opened automatically imme-
diatey after the train has passed the
crossing. The directorates are eager
to find something better than human
employees to depend upon for the pro-
lection OF their railroad crossings.

Lengthen the First Milking Period.

An authority claims that II you
want your heifer to develop into a
profitable COW you should extend her
first milking period as far as possible
in order to promote and fix the milk
ing habit. A COW to be really profit
able must give good yield of milk for
at least ten months in the year, but it
will be difficult to get her to do this IL
you do not milk her the first year just
as long as possible-even beyond the
period when there is profit from her
product. Weekly Witness.

Fertilizer for an Apple Orchard.

A fsh and potash fertilizer will do
no harm to an old apple orchard on
dry land, but we would not put on too
much of this mixture, because it is so
heterogeneous that it might force too
great growth of wood. Ordinarily
bone and potash, or bone meal and
wood ashes are among the best fertil-
izers for apple trees of all ages. There
is little danger of the ordinary farmer
putting on too much fertilizer in the
orchard, as in most cases 200 to 400
pounds is all that is used and twice or
thrice that quantity will do no harm.
1t ought to be put on at once, as the
trees are already well started and it
would have been better had the plant
food been applied last fall or on the
snow. a little air-slaked lime in the
potato hill will do no harm, but we
doubt ifit will keep away the white
grub to any extent.

If oleamargarine were put upon the
market undisguised and sold honestly
for what 1t is there could be no ground
for complaint, either moral or legal.
If people knowing what it is deliber-
ately buy and use it, they have per-
feet right to do so, and any law for
bidding its manufacture or sale would
be not only unfair and unjust, but in
direct violation of the letter aud spirit
OF the rights of American freemen.
But there is, We presume, no case on
record where uncolored oleomargariua q

In Japan most of the horses are
sbod with straw. Even the clumsiest
of cart horses wear straw shoes, which,
in their cases, are tied round the ankle
with straw rope, and are made of the
ordinary rice straw, braided so as to
form n sole for the foot about half an
inch thick. These soles cost about
one cent pair.

! FOR FARM And GARDEN.
Kerosene Em uision for Poultry.

The Kerosene emulsion used as a
spray for the garden is excellent rs
wash for scaly legs of poultry, and
nothing is better for lice in the chicken
house than a good wash of it applied
to the sides and roof of the house with
q spraying pump.

QUAINT AND CURIOUS,

A strange clock was made during
the last century for French noble
man. The dial was horizontal, and the
figures, being hollow, were filed with
different sweets or spices. Thus, run.
ming his finger along the hand, by
tasting, the owner could tell the hour

A shell-fsh known as the pianna in
the Mediterranean has the curious
power OF spinning viscid silk which
is made in Sicily into regular fabric.
This silk is spun by the shell fish in
the first place for the purpose of at
taching itself to the rocks. II is able
to guide the delicate flaments to the
proper place and then glue them fast,
and If they are cut away it can repro
duce them. The material when gath

A woman out bicycling lost a Jew.
elled scarfpin, which she much valued.
She did not miss it till the end of her
journey, and as she had ridden twenty
miles the prospect of finding it seemed
small. She, however, gave notice OF
her loss to the police. On her return
journey, when about mile from home,
she punctured the tire of her machine,
and on dismounting to discover the
cause found the pin sticking in the
tire.

The most expensive material ever
produced for dress is said to have
been purchased by the German En-.
press last year from Lyons. 1t was
white silk brocade, having flowers,
birds and foliage in relief, and cost
$l25 yard, the actual value of the
raw silk, it is said, being 800. The
empress was so struck with its beauty
that she had not the heart to cut it
up, and it was eventually turned into
curtains The price paid for this ma
terial is about double as much as the
famous cloth of gold that Louis XIV
had made into dressing gown.

William Decker of Shepard, Ind. ,
m eccentric individual who had been
an intidel for many years, was buried
q few days ago. Two years ago Decker
had his coffin built, and, according tc
his wishes, he was buried in his front
yard. The coffin was painted bright
red. On a headstone at the head OF
the grave was inscribed: "Here lies
the body of William Decker, who al
ways paid 100 cents on the dollar. Z"
The funeral services were conducted
by an attorney instead of minister.
