How Corn Should Be Planted.


For FIVE years / have Travelled exter
sively in Nebraska, with my special at
tention directed to listed corn, says w.
L. Wilkins, in the Nebraska Farmer.
l have travelled not as public philan-
thropist, but as selfish business man.
and as the proper planting and care of
listed corn tends to promote my own
interests, l have watched the question
with as much care as 1 am capable of
exercising, and every experience con-
vinces me that while difference in loca-
ton or ground may change the rule,
generally corn Is planted too close to-
gether in the hills, but not in the rows.
Corn planted not over feet inches
in the rows, and with not more than
two kernels in the hill, and those at
least 10 inches apart, yields the great
est amount to the acre.
Farmers whose early education in
farming established habits of planting
corn in wide straight rows, not because
the corn needed it, but to enable them
to cross cultivate with two horses, have
been slow to realize the waste of ground
and time thus made necessary.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
corn listed not over 40 inches wide, and
with one kernel in place and from u
to 10 inches apart, properly cultivated,
will thereby utilize the moisture in a
dry season in making corn instead Of
stalks and will yield more corn to the
acre than is possible to grow any other
way.

O1eomargarine Sales.

Recent frequent convictions of per-
sons in New York State found with
oleomargarine in their possession are
taken to indicate that traffic in that
commodity continues in the face of the
laws Of the State Board Of Agriculture.
Some idea Of the extent of the oleo-
margarine trade may be gained from
the statistics just published at Wash
ington, which give the quantity made
and sold during the fiscal year ending
July i, so. 495, 62S pounds, an increase Of
25,106,901 pounds over the previous
year. This is in spite of the fact that
the "anti-color" law exists in thirty
four States. 1t Is on the point of color
that the legality Of oleomargarine sale
hangs. In its natural state, that of
pearly white, there is no law against it.

TO MEET STEAMSHIPS.
A New Service by the New York Ger

A New Service by the New York Gem
trail Railroad.
George 81. Daniels, general passenger
agent OF the New York Central and
Hudson River Railroad, has added a
steamship bureau to the equipment of
the passenger service of the road. He
has engaged Captains Louis Ingwersen
and +. A. G. Schultze to superintend
the bureau, and one of their duties viii
be to meet all incoming transatlantic
and the principal coastwise steamships
to assist passengers who wish to leave
the city via the Vanderbilt system.
Capt. 1ngwersen will have charge of
the American, Cunard, White Star, At
lantic Transport, Wilson, Anchor and
Allan-State lines, and Capt. Schultze
has been assigned to the North German
Lloyd, Hamburg American, French,
Rotterdam, Red Star and Thingvalla

ships, and viii be prepared to furnish
railway tickets. .parlor and sleeping car

sengers with cabs operated by the rail
road company, and furnish time tables
and general information to passengers.
The two men have also been directed
to assist passengers who come to his
city with view Of going abroad, and
such passengers will be met at the
Grand Central station on incoming
trains and conducted TO the steamship.
Their baggage will be attended to, and
steamship tickets can be procured in
advance by communicating with Mr..
Daniels From the New York CONNER

Poultry Pointers.

Flocks of poultry are sometimes I'M
profitable because the laying hens are
compelled to support those that pro-
duce nothing. If the young pullets are
Matched early in the year and kept in
a growing condition they should begin
laying by November. But it seems that
with many fiocks only a few begin
laying so early in the winter season.
This is due to not culling out the flock
and disposing of those that have not
made suitable growth with the others.
When Matching early pullets only, eggs
from selected hens should be used, so
as to improve the laying qualities of
the members of the flock.

Fatten;nu Cattle.

A fat steer of 1000 pounds weight is
said to have in it 500 pounds of water,
about twenty-five pounds of nitrogen.
eighteen pounds of phosphoric acid and
two pounds of potash. TO buy this
nitrogen to return TO the soil would cost
about $3.50, and the phosphoric acid
would cost about 81. In selling such
an animal raised on the farm and farm
products about $3.50 worth of fertiliz-
ing material is taken. If bran, linseed
meal or other grain is bought to feed it,
more than this would probably be
added to the farm, and it would be
growing richer, while il the hay and
grain it consumed had been sold off the
farm, it would have been robbed of
much more.

of Congress Herbert Putnam, in the

for an average of forty-two hours and
a half of service week, with an aver
age vacation OF four weeks and five
days. OF the ninety-nine persons,
ninety-four were women.
There are no accurate statistics of
the total number of persons engaged in
library work in the United States to-
day. As there are over. eight thousand
libraries, an average of two employees
TO each library would indicate at least
sixteen thousand such persons. Prob
ably three-fifths of these are women"

BIC crops ON ARID LANDS.
4 Dakota Farmer Perfects a Scheme
Which. Roata Tr~;ua&;or,


a Dakota Farmer Perfects Scheme
Which Beats Irrigation.
Can the arid lands of Western Kan
sas, Utah. and other States subject to
drought be made to raise regularly year
after year, and that without irrigation?
81. w. Campbell. farmer, formerly "a
Brown County. South Dakota. claims
that they can. He has originated q
method of cultivation which. he as
serts, never fails to produce crops in
the sunbaked territory. no matter how
dry the season may be. His plan is
based upon the theory that droughts
are caused not by lack of sufficient fall
of moisture, but by too rapid evap-
Grafton. He plows the soil deeply and
sub-packs the lower portion. thus form
ing a shallow water reservoir under the
surface. The top strata Of earth is
then pulverized as fine as dust and kept
so by frequent STRINGS, forming a fine
dust, which chokes the pores of the soil,
cutting off evaporation and leaving the
moisture in the earth to be drawn on
by the roots of the growing plants.
Should Campbelrs claim prove trust
worthy it means that hundreds of thou
sands of acres now uncultivated can
be made productive at little expense.
A system of irrigation. when it is prac-
ticable, costs about as much as the
land before it can be made effective.
j. p. Pomeroy, a Boston man, now of
Colorado Springs, Colo, who has large
landed interests along the Union Pa
cific in Western Kansas, and multi
millionaire, has established a model
farm at Hill City, in Graham County,
Kansas, to demonstrate the utility or
merits of the Campbell method of cul-
tlyati0n, and has secured Mr.. Campbell
to personally direct the work upon his
farm. A large orchard will be set to
apple, plum, peach, apricot, and cher
ries; also all kinds of crops grown. such
as corn, potatoes, wheat, oats, barley,
broom corn, and great variety of gar
den vegetation. This farm will be run
for number of years, and every pos
sible effort made to bring people to it
during the growing season, and in
struct them in the science of soil cul-
ture. The whole system will be put to
practical test, and Results shown to the
visitors. Mr.. Campbell claims that this
move on the part of Pomeroy will re-
suit in completely revolutionizing the
present sparSely settled condition of
that country, to again repopulate it,
but ON safer basis. with all uncertain
ties apparently in the past.

In warm climate fruit is sufficient
to sustain life, but up in the Arctic
religions oil and fat are essential. In
the feeding of live stock the tempera-
ture of the atmosphere should always
be considered Hundreds of farmers
feed the same ration the year round.
So much corn or oats is given whether
the stason is winter or summer. The
animals may eat all that is allowed, but
they become fat in summer and do not
gain in winter. During severely cold
weather a large proportion of grain
should be given. especially of corn,
while the supply OF hay should not be
reduced.

Tile Draining.

Tile drain should be put from FIVE to
six feet below the surface, not only to
prevent any danger Of freezing. but to
prevent them from being choked up by
grass roots, which would soon fill them
at depth of two to three feet from the
surface. Deepening the drainage also
deepens the soil. and makes the land
dry earlier in the spring, resist drought
better and available for many crops
which would not grow if the water was
within three feet of the surface.
