sylvania. 1t has been grown on the ex-
pertinent grounds of the department OF
agriculture at Washington, d. c., and
has proved to be thoroughly adapted
to and valuable for this locality. The
seeds germinate poorly when they are
more than two years old. Most OF the
seed used in this country is imported
from Europe. so that particular care
should be taken by importers and deal
crs to handle none but such as can be
sold under guaranty as good, fresh
seed.
Cultivation.--Hairy vetch may be
sown in autumn, from about the middle
of August to the middle of September
or in spring from the latter part OF
April to the middle of May. 1t should
he soyyn broadcast or with grain driil
at the rate of one to one and one-half
bushels of seed per acre. The drll'
method of sowing will require less
amount of seed. When the seed is put
in broadcast, bushel of rye. oats or
wheat should be sown at the same time
so as TO furnish a support to keep the
vines up off the ground. If it is sown IN
drills in the latter part of August. the
crop should be cultivated several times
It will furnish some forage in autumn
and where the winter is not too severe
will start to grow again in the spring
thus producing forage in late autumn
and early spring, at the two period'
when it is most needed.

DANGER IN MILLET.
When Fed Indiscriminatelyto TO Horses
1t Produces q Disease That 10
Hard to Handle.

Tn many sections where millet 1s
grown for fodder and hay
horses are troubled with so-called
disease that is characterized by a de-
rangement of the urinary organs and
resembling rheumatism.
The action of the kidneys is increased,
often being accompanied by sup
preston of the urine. The joints, par
ticularly of the hind legs, are swollen
and infused with blood, the texture OF
the bone is destroyed, becoming SOFT
and less tenacious, in consequence OF
which the muscles and the igaments
are easily torn loose. In all cases
lameness. and in many instances re-
YER, also occur, and a considerable
number result fatally.
That the trouble is caused by millet
has been proved beyond question by
many experiments, such as changing
the animals diet from millet to hay
and then back to millet after few
weeks. In every case. unless too fal
advanced, the symptoms disappeared
when ordinary hay was fed, and re
turned when the change was made
back to millet. The specific propert!
that causes the trouble has not ye
been discovered. But experiment.
show that the affliction is not due, a
lin the case of crimson clover hair
balls, to the age of the crop when cut
since the symptoms appear as ofte
when the plants are harvested matur
as when immature. The only recon
mendation that can be made is to fee
millet sparingly. either in alternatio
. with other hay or mixed with them

GOOD FODDER CROP.
Hairy or sand vetch II said to Be
Hardy Plant and Adapted to

The scientific name of this plant is

saws of it: This annual leguminous
plant is a native of Asia. 1t has been
cultivated for about so years in some
parts of Europe, especially southern
Russia, Germany and France, and was
introduced into this country for the
first time about 1S47 under the name
of Siberian vetch. Excellent reports as

LEAKS ON THE FARM.
why some Tillers Of the SOIL F"
while Their Neighbors ~et
rich and Prosperous

One serious leak on great many
farms is the buying OF machinery ana
then leaving it exposed in all kinos OF
weather. Il have in mind farmer wno
has a self-binder, corn planter, suiky
plow, walking plow, two cuitiva'ors,
two top buggies and two wagons, ana
he leaves them standing out in all kinus
of weather. l consider this serious
leak and there are many farmers VINO
do the same thing. Another leak on
many farms is a lack of proper shelter
for stock. / know men who let their
milcb cows stand out in all kinds OF
weather and then feed 80 per cent. corn
to warm them up. Another leak Is
the very prevalent one of feeding young
stock a ration that will simply main
tain them during the winter. Many
times we see calves and colts that are
not ten pounds heavier in the spring
than they were at the beginning OF
winter, and practically all the feed they
consumed during the winter was lost
once asked farmer who follows
this plan how much he thought MS
calves had gained during the winter.
He replied that they had not gained
anything except age, but they were
Ave months older. 1 fail to see where
the I2 months calf that will weigh
500 pounds has any advantage over the
seven months calf of the same weight
To feed five months without any galr
is a serious leak and one that is tos
common with many farmers. Another
leak that is so common that it is th'
rule rather than the exception is tn
wasting of manure. All manure mad
on the farm should be spread on TN
fields, especially on the poor spots. stu
another leak is to try to farm too nue.
land. and consequently grow NOR
weeds than corn. | know one ma
who grew less than 2s bushels OF cor
per acre this year on account OF unoei
taking too much; the weeds took TN
corn. e,The same man has 40 acres
rough land that has good bluegras
sod. He is going to. break it up &c
corn in the spring, and that will be
e serious leak on his farm, for he h'
,f more land under plow now than he ca
ID attendito and he will only grow MOI
d weeds and lose the 40 acres of grass
lie sides. Then another leak is kecpir
re any kind of stock after they have pass'
,e their prime and begin to go down.

IT don't want to be forgotten
that sheep are great grubbers OF
