Mt. He said that in the United States
at large there were siXty-four land

education along agricultural lines and
which were attended last year by more
than $1,000 students. 1000 OF whom
had taken an agricultural course. He
did not consider it practical for the
present to teach agriculture in the ele.
mentary schools OF the country, but
advised, instead, that instruction be
given on objects in nature especially
in the rural schools as the hes, prepa-
ration for subsequent instruction on
agricultural topics.
In the matter Of experiment stations,
DR.. True said that $10,O0O,000 had been
expended upon them in the past ten
years, but as this amounted to only 81
for every $4,000 of farm products. ne
did not consider the sum excessive In
this time 500 annual reports and 5000
bulletins had been issued by the sta

There were fifty-four sta

were engaged in investigating all the /
subjects pertaining to agriculture hor- |

The question of taxation was the
greatest of all problems placed before
the voters of Michigan in the last state
campaign and no doubt will take pre-
cedence over all others in the present
campaign Some of the candidates have
already issued their views on this sub
Ject, pledging themselves to this, that or
the other horn of the dilemma. Here is
what Mr. Ferry has to say upon the SUBJ
ject:
There is no doubt that the questions
Of taxations and an honest and economi-
cal administration of state affairs are
the ones uppermost in the minds of the
people of Michigan today That being
the case, the representatives of the PEG.
pie in the convention for the nomination
OF candidate for governor, will come
instructed by their constituents upon
these issues, or, at least, representing
their sentiments.
The convention will formulate
plan which, in their judgment, repre-
sents to the greater extent the wishes of
the republicans of the state. On the
platform enunciated by that convention
l thall stand, if nominated.
Il am in favor of equal taxation and
always have been. How this shall be
brought about is for the people to say.
1t seems TO me that it is not in accord
with the spirit of repubicanism that
candidate shall dictate the policy of the
party The party is greater than any
one man. If elected governor, promise
that | shall use every effort to secure a
safe and economical administration of
state affairs.

How TO Fight Yellow nncl,-

Please inform me through the p. F.
OF the best method Of destroying what
is known as yellow dock in meadow
and tillage land?
On land that can be cultivated follow
a short rotation and never let any
docks go to seed. II is not much work
to do this, only that the work must be
thorough every time, so no seeds will
get back to the land We go over the
clover when about a third grown and
cut off all docks at the ground. They
will not go to seed then before the
clover Is cut. or course, when you
pillow the clover you can easily keep
any docks from growing up in corn or
potatoes. Some years we have quite n
few. but not one now where there used
to be 100. We have got the upper
hand of them pretty well. Seed seem
to remain In the ground q long time
and then grow under favorable condi-
tons In permanent grass I know o.
no better plan than TO keep the docks
cut off, 50 they Will not 90 to seed.

Cooking Feed.

Without doubt for those who are In
position to do so, IL is a good plan To-
cook the larger part, if not all the feed
given to the hogs The idea I'm feed
ing is 70 get all out of a given amount
OF grain that is possible. and do not
believe that there is a more practical
or surer way Of doing this than by
cooking. | have in mind farmer who
has just disposed OF a large number Of
hogs at three dollars per cwt.. and has
gone and stocked up again with hogs
that he has purchased expressly TO fat

he can feed them to a marketable con-
dition and then sell al a fair gain even
at three cents per pound. He buys all
OF his grain and cooks It, l under
stand that he expects to feed burnt
corn to this drove, which he purchases
at a discount, and has II shipped to
him. The success Of the cooked grain
is evidenced by the number OF cookers
that are being purchased in this vicin-
ity by practical farmers who have the
dollars and cents of the investment

Last season the farmers in some sec

bic with the soil blowing away from
the seed, leaving it exposed and in some
Instances causing second planting.
To avoid this we quote from circular
issued by the American Beet Sugar
company the following advice gained
by their experience on light soils:
TO prevent blowing, which is very
disastrous to small beet plants, (our ex-
| perlence has shown us that even the
best black bottom land will blow, if
level and fine, which it must be TO Sc.
cure a good crop, we advise running a
hight harrow over the field after rolling
bur before seeding. This harrow must
be very light and can be easily con-
structed Of not on hand) and without
much expense by using 2x2 pine pieces
for the beams and large nails for the
teeth, only letting them project below
the beams one and one-half inches TO

scratch the soil mot over half an inch
deep thus giving a rough surface,
which will surely prevent blowing ex-
oept on dry, sandy soil, on which, for
this and some other reasons, sugar beets
should never be planted. The soil must
not be loosened again by deep harrow
ing, as this would injure the germina.
ton.
"The narrowing with the light har.
row should be in the opposite direction
OF the drill rows
1T is Of the utmost Importance that
the soil i'll which the seed is to be i'm.
bedded Is as fine and garden-like as it
can be made, and no work should be
spared to achieve this condition prior to
seeding In case you prepare your seed
bed properly, you will secure a good
stand and save much labor in the first
morse cultivation and in thinning the
,rop."
