Sugar Beet Investigations.

Conclusions from Investigations by
J. D. Towar of Michigan:
Subsoil blowing practiced Immediate
ly before sowing the beets, owing, per
haps, to the severe drought which fol-
lowed, resulted In the complete loss of
the crop.
Coarse manure applied some two
months before sowing the beets result
ed In increased yield aud beets Of q
normal percentage Of sugar.
Carefully prepared home mixed fer
tilizer gave higher yields and better
beets than stable manure.
Nitrate of soda alone gave no mark
ed increase in yield. but, In combina-
ton with other elements. generally In
creased the yield. with a normal per
cent of sugar.
In every case nitrate of soda gave
higher yields than sulphate of ammo.
MIA.
Wood ashes and salt increased the
yield of beets slightly.
One ton of air slaked lime per acre
increased slightly the yield of beets on
the uplands without affecting the per.
centage of sugar.
On muck land one ton OF air slaked
lime per acre in combination with 9th,
er fertilizers decreased the tonnage II
per cent and reduced the sugar con,
tent from 0.64 to T.5S per ceAt When
lime was applied alone on muck land
increased applications increased ths
tonnage of beets, but decreased tbs
percentage Of sugar.
Early planting gave larger yields
and slightly higher percentage Of sug
ar.
Clay loan soil produced the largest
tonnage and the highest percentage Of
sugar, followed by other soils in the
order below. except that the tonnage
on muck is next to clay loan sandy

During the past season there was .

There Is new device for inducing
bees on the wing to cluster. II ii cas-
ily made and can be put Ia practice by
any one. Take board about foot
square and put a hole Ia the center
large enough to receive the end Of a
pole. Then put d half dozen holes IN
the board large enough to receive as
many corncobs. With your pole IN the
center you can take the device and 90
with it where the bees are flying thick
est. and they will cluster on the board.
Then you can carry them to their hive
and shake them off before 1t or into It,
and the work is done.
Those who have black bees and are
troubled with worms should at once
change them for Italians. Worms have
no show with strong Italian colonies.
They are wormproof and should for
this property have the preference,
Let every beekeeper attend to put
ting on empty sections and removing
full ones during this month tJnly)
Give plenty of room to the bees, that
they may not cluster on the outside Of
the hive and practically do nothing
This is easily prevented by making
room in the hive for surplus honey.
The same thing can be accomplished
by a judicious use of the extractor
This empties the full combs and gives
the bees room for replenishing with
additional honey
Bees did not do as well this past sea-
son In cellars as they did on their sum
mer stands. This is exceptional, for
good, dry cellar easily regulated as to
temperature is generally the best win
ter protection that can be had. There
are some excellent beekeepers, how
ever. who prefer wintering on the sum
mer stands, with large hives and strong
colonies.
Put yellow stained sections in win
dow or where the sun can shine on
them, and they will soon be bleached
white, so that they will readily sell for
first class honey. This is worth know
ing, as it enhances the price Of the
honey. 1t may be worth hundreds Of
dollars to some beekeepers.
A good way to stop robbing In mild
cases is to throw a handful of grass
before the hive. For more severe
case saturate the grass with water
For very bad case saturate the grass
with kerosene oil But .'an ounce of
prevention is worth pound of cure"
Be careful not to drop any honey
around the hives, as this viii induce
the bees to begin depredations on 9TH
er hives.-Farm Journal

If bushes are cut in August and are
allowed to lie on the ground all win
ter, they win make the grass richer
and greener the next season. especially
If the brush is burned just as shoots
are putting out from the stubs next
spring. There is nothing that so much
sets back bush you are trying to kill
as setting a FIRE over 1t, says American
Cultiyator. The bushes should be cut
as early In August as possible. before
their leaves ripen, as cutting the bush
es later than this will do little good
toward killing them.

Questions
for
Women

II you were offered sure aid in time
of trouble would you put it aside
and accept something OF doubtful
efficiency?
If you saw before you a strong and
safe bridge leading to your goal, would
You ignore it to try some insecure and
tottering structure?
The answer to these questions is
plain. You would, of course, choose
without hesitation what all evidence
showed to be the safe thing, and you
would risk nothing in useless expert
ments.
Why then do some women risk ore
of their most precious possessions
their health-in trying medicines OF
unknown value, which may even prove
hurtful to them.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound has stood the test of years. 1t
has the largest sale of any remedy for
female ills in the world, and nothing
could have given it this sale except its
own merit.
Do not try any experiments, but buy
what is known to be reliable. Mrs.
Pinlxham's Compound can do all that
is claimed for It, and all statements in
regard to it can be easily verified.
Write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass,
for little book she has just published
containing letters from the mayor of
Lynn, the postmaster and the Women's
Christian Temperance Union.
Mrs Pinkham's advice is offered free
of charge TO all women who write to
her for aid. This invitation is con-
stantly renewed. A million women
have been cured of serious female ills by
Mrs. Pinkham's advice and uedicine.

After the middle of July strawberry
plants that are to be grown IN matted
rows are allowed to layer. and ordi-
narily no attention is paid to assisting
them, but If the season is very dry and
few runners are formed they may be
layered by hand. Some growers also
find 1t advisable to layer the plants by
hand and thus distribute them so that
the ground Will be occupied to the best
advantage. When the plants are two
feet apart, two runners are layered at
either side of each original plant, SO
that they will form a square, with the
old plant in the center. The other run
ners are removed and the plants are
allowed to thicken up, and give nearly
as good results as can be obtained from
hill culture
The growers who plant so as to work
the ground both ways and still wish to
grow the plants in matted rows are
only able to keep up this practice until
about the middle of July and after
that work the land In one direction
only. In this way the runners are dis
tributed lengthwise Of the rows, where
they soon become layered 1t will gen
orally be best to restrict the width of
the row to eight or ten inches.-L. r.

]. e. Wing, who has done more than
any other writer to encourage farmers
in Ohio to grow or at least try alfalfa,
says that on average soils and with
average treatment 1t Is inferior to red
clover. 1t requires very rich soil and
to be sown after danger of frost is
past on well plowed and well prepared
land, either alone or with very light
seeding Of oats or a seeding of barley
and covered by using heavy roller.
1t should be mown three times the first
year to make 1t thrifty. If sown in
oats, these should be cut for hay as
soon as headed and the alfalfa be now
ed and let lie twice more. He also nd
vises trying 1t only In a small way at
