Wheat Farming,

A Nebraska paper tells Of man who
bought farm there upon which
there was a mortgage of 500. He did
not make much money the first year,
but he sowed 50 acres of wheat the
next year. 1t was d poor year for
wheat, and the stand was so poor that
he thought he would not harvest 1t.
lie returned to his old home and left
the farm and the mortgage to fight it
out as they pleased. The wheat ripen.
ed, fell to the ground and seeded IT
well. There was a fine crop, and as
some one was kind enough to write
about 1t to him he went back, harvest.
ed 1t and sold 1t for enough to pay
the mortgage and all other debts.

Raising Potatoes.

Aroostook farmers understand potato
raising, and many are introducing new
varieties, says Maine correspondent
Of The New England Farmer. By this
method they have done much to i'm.
prove the stock, which has a natural
inclination to run out entirely. 1t would
be difficult to calculate the value of a
single potato If it was the last one left
One potato properly cultivated will pro-
duce ten. and In ten years the total
product would be 10,O00,OOO,OOO pota-
toes. This would stock the world with
seed. II we were reduced to one 20.
tato, 1t might be better that New York
or London be blotted out than to lose
that potato. The farmer who plants
new seed is wise, although 1t may cost
him shilling pound.

BARRE, VT, JANUARY -, 1900

The meeting of the Vermont dairy
men at BrattlebOro was the most sue
cessful in the history of the associa-
ton. The attendance was large and
representative farmers were present
from all parts of the state. This is a
most enc Iraging indication for the
future of the state. Agriculture is
the principal industry, and the better
all its branches are understood the
greater will be the general prosperity
of Vermont. The meetings of the
board of agriculture are also being
more largely attended than in previ-
GUS years. Brains pay in farming as
in everything else.

EnsilaGe For Horses.

AS many people have an idea that
ensilage is not a good food for horses,
we will call attention to the fact that

to the brilliant intellect and engaging
personality of its author. Few men
in the national house of representa-
tives were personally more popular
than the late William L. Wilson, of
West Virginia. Mr.. Wilson entered
congress from the study of college
president. He was born in Jefferson
county, Virginia, May Srd. 1S49, and
was educated at the Charlestown acad-
emy, Columbus college and the Uni
versity of Virginia. During the civil
war, he served in the confederate
army, and for several years after the
war was a professor in Columbian
college, but on the overthrow of the law
yer's test oath in West Virginia, he re-
signed his chair and entered upon the
practice of law in Charlestown. He
had taken an active part in various
political campaigns, and was perma-
nent president of the national demo
cratic convention, at Chicago, in 1892
He was elected president of the West
Virginia university in 1882, but resign
