NEW Dwarf TOMATO.

A Variety Especially Adapted to the
Home Garden.
Since the introduction of the Dwarf
Champion tomato about ten years ago
q demand has been created. says Rural
New Yorker, for tomato Of similar
habit bearing good crop Of bright
scarlet fruit. The compact, stocky
growth of the Champion is very at
tractive to the amateur, and thousands
of plants Of this variety are grown ev-
cry spring for the grocery and other
forms of retail plant trade. There Is
much disappointment, however, when
these pretty plants fruit, as the toma-
toes are dull red in color, rather soft
and small and none too abundant in

Dwarf Champion. and a number Of
scarlet fruit .'tree tomatoes" have late
ly been offered by seedsmen, or are still
undergoing tests in the hands Of intro
ducers. Most of them show progress
toward the desired type. hut fail to
combine all the necessary qualities.
The Quarter Century, which originat-
ed In 1896. comes nearer to the ideal
dwarf tomato in the opinion of many
experts who have repeatedly tested 1t
than any of Its competitors. 1t appear
ed as 'sport" in the third generation
from cross between the Lorillard, a
bright scarlet variety Of high quality,
largely grown under glass as forcing
tomato, and the Dwarf Champion.
Though it has been repeatedly grown
in areas as large as two or more acres,
1t comes perfectly true to habit and
color so far, and bids fair to fill the
bill completely for those who want a

Western Feeding Cattle.

For several years past after it be-
came evident that there was a shortage
of beef cattle in the country a good
deal of money was lost in the corn belt
in feeding steers from the western
ranges. We know of some men who
lost about all the corn they had. 9th
ers, more fortunate. came out even,
and the only advantage they derived
from their feeding operations was that
they had the company of the cattle
during the feeding season. Much Of
the loss was due to the fact that exor-
bitant prices were paid for feeding cat
tie as compared with the value of the
cattle when finished. In many in
stances serious loss was sustained be-
cause inferior cattle incapable of tax
ing finish had been purchased. The
facts of the situation for the past two
or three years have made feeders in
the corn belt good deal more eau
tious, and they are not now disposed to
pay extravagant prices for feeding
stock. There is growing recognition
of this. too. on the ranges, and the
press of that section is endeayoring to
reconcile the range cattlemen to the
necessity for acceptance of lower
prices. 81
When feeding cattle became scarce
two or three years ago, feed happened
to be unusually plenty. 1t induced a
great many men who had previously
had little or no experience in feeding to
try their luck with lot of cattle. They
pushed into the market for cattle,
thereby increasing the volume of inqui-
ry and enlarging the demand. with the
result that experienced feeders were
driven to choose between paying more
than they knew they ought to pay or
doing without. Some of them did
without. Others decided to chance it
and bought and fed, but made no mon
ey. The new men generally lost mon
ey, and. deciding that enough was as
good as feast. they have quit bull
ing" the feeding cattle market. Feed
ers of experience who know how to
make money in the work when the rel
alive prices of feeding finished cattle
will admit of it are now, pretty well
determined to buy such feeders as
they want at figure that will leave
them a margin or not buy at all.-Iowa

In.ectsIn stored Grain.

Every year after harvest comes the
time of trouble with insects in stored
grain. Concerning these pests, which
work in the grain bin and often do
great damage before they are discov-
cred. Rural New Yorker advises thus:
All grain bins should of course be thor
oughly cleaned before the new grain is
put in. If the weeyils appear, there
are two ways of killing them. Raising
the temperature to 40 degrees will de-
stroy them. but that is hardly practical
BILE in most granaries. The most eff
fective, remedy is found in bisulphide
of carbon. This is powerful poison.
It is quite infiammable and must not
be used near an open fire. When put
at the top OF. the bin, it volatizes, and
the gas, being heavier than air. sinks
through the whole mass of grain with
out injuring it. The usual application
is about a pound and half Of bisul-
phide to "a ton of grain in a tight bin.
More should be used when the bins
are open. The bisulphide may be put
in shallow pans or saucers and thus
scattered over the surface of the bin.
Then close the top and throw blanket
over to exclude the air, leaving 1t alone
for "a hours.
