Value of Wheat Hra,,.

That ton of good wheat bran cor
tains mere protein than a ton Of corn
meal, AID is therefore more valuable
as milk-producing food, or for build
ing up tile bone and muscle on growing
stock, is we'll known to many farmers.
But there is a considerable difference
in the quality of bran. Some samples
have been found which analysed over
-1s per cont of protein, and others not
much OVER - percent, or about two
thirds the amount of this most valu-
able element. Spring wheat bran aver
ages better than the winter wheat
bran, or yearly 10 per cent protein
with 4.3t per cent fat and $3.50 per
cent of starchy matter. This bran
should nj ways be sold on guaranteed
analysis, and at n value very nearly
represented by the protein found in it.
If that htving the least protein is sold
at $12, 1t isay be more profitable to pay
SIG for the hest that can be found.

Top.Dre,sing Fan Grain,

We think fertilizer of 800 pounds of
acid phosphate and 100 pounds of murl-
ate of potash to the acre is better for
fall grain than, a dressing of stable or
barnyard manure, first because 1t costs
less than the manure is worth for other
crops, and because while 1t may not
grow as much straw 1t will grow a
sitter straw that will not lodge, and 1t
Will make heavier and plnmper grain.
When the seed is drilled In 1t may be
drilled In with 1t without extra labor,
but when seed is sown broadcast we
would harrow In the seed iirst and then
SOW the fertilizer above 1t to be carried
down by the fall rains. In many sec
lions the amount we advise for one acre
would be thought enough for two acres,
but We think the larger amount would
prove most profitable on land which
had been long used for growing hay or
for pasturage. II the land was very
light we wOuldftop dress with from Is
to 100 pounds per acre of nitrate of
soda after wheat came up, in prefer
ence to sowing 1t when wheat was
sown, and in any case unless wheat
was very rank In the spring, as 1t may
be where clover or other manurial crop
was plowed in, we would sow ABOUT
the above amount of nitrate of soda
early in the spring TO stimulate good
growth and early maturity.-Am American

AT Farmers Institute in Kennebec
County, Maine, Mr.. E. G. Buzzel gave
his experience for the past five winters
in breaking out the 100 miles of road
in his town. The average depth of
snowfall during winter for the las,
twenty years has been ninety-six
inches, OF eight feet of snow a year.
For the past twelve years they have
used rollers, and now have six Of them
to cover the ITO miles. They have
roads from eleven TO thirteen feet wide
without high Ridges at the side, SO that
heavily loaded teams can pass each
other safely, even after the heaviest
snowfalls, which usually come in
February and March. The average cost
for the past FIVE years has been 5000
per year, including all expenses of
shoyeling when necessary to get the
first rollers through. This is in the
town Of Fryeburg, but many towns
near there are now using the same sys-
TEN. But there are sim many towns
In the State that have less than 100.
miles of road that spend from S1.TOO to
$4,000 year to break out their snow
drifts, using road scrapers, snow plows
and gangs Of shovelers. and yet do not
get as good n road as those towns that
use the rollers,gso says an Eastern ex-.
change.

Olive md Egg SnIna.


Remove the shells from the number
of hard boiled eggs desired. and be-
ginning at the small end, cut the
whites, almost to the base, into fifths
lengthwise, removing the yolks. Turn
back the petals thus formed SO that
they will curl prettily, and tint them
a delicate pink with beet Juice. Mash
the yolks to smooth cream, add chop
ped olives-half cup to half a dozen
eggs-and teaspoon of paprika. Mold
again into balls, return to the tinted
petals, prick with fork to roughen
the surface, and place on each table
spoon of mayonnaise. Set each in n
nest of fringed endlve. This Is espe-
cially artistic, resembling pink bios
sons with golden hearts.
