Mixing Chem3sal Fertilizers

n bulletin of the Tennessee Expert.
NEXT Station says
Farmers should make their own
manure at home, by growing feed,
Il ding it to milch COWS or other stock
Z saving the manure. They should
ny all means produce their own nitro
senous fertilizers by growing legumin-
Gus plants, which catch and fix the nj
trogen of the air. as explained in Press
bulletin /. The good farmer will dc
this and Will thus never need to buy
any fertilizer unless it is phosphate
and potash. If they will buy f~ertiliz.
ers there is no mystery or difficulty
about mixing them at home. Nitrogen
costs II to Is cents a pound in fertil-
lzers. Manufacturers prepare them by
mixing with acid phosphate some
source OF nitrogen, like tankage, dried
p4oou, or cotton seed meal, n a pot
ASH compound like muriate of pot.
ASH or kanite. Why may not the
farmer mix them for himself? is a
question frequently asked of the Ten
nessee Agricultural Experiment Sta
ZION. The station always mixes fer
Illlzers for its own use, and any farmer
can do the same as follows: Use as
the OASIS for your mixture acid phos-
phate made from the Tennessee rock.
II is the highest grade and the cheap
est phosphate we have. 1t should be
mad anywhere in tennessee for SIP
a ton or less, II should contain l6 to
lS per cent available ~phosphoric acid.
FOR potash use muriate of potash, con-
tanning 50 per cent potash. 1t costs,
IN Tennessee, $42 to $40.
Two classes of mixtures are sold:
l. Mixtures of acid phosphate and
potash can be prepared thus: Take
1850 pounds of Tennessee acid phos-
phate, $50 pounds muriate of potash,
and mix thoroughly. AT the above
prices a ton of the mixture will cost
abou $14.25, and will contain at least
1875 per cent available phosphoric acid
II SO per cent potash. 1t is the best
FERTILIZER for coW-peas, grasses and for
age plants generally, corn and wheat,
and makes a fine compost with ma
nure.
2. So-called complete fertilizers may
be prepared by mixing proper amounts
of acid phosphates, potash and am
moniates," as the substances supply
ing nitrogen are called. Here is a
good mixture made with "tankage," or
dried animal matter from the slaughter
houses, which contain Z per cent nitro
gen and IL per cent available phos-
phoric acid, and costing SzV a ton.
Any of these can be easily mixed on
the barn floor or a smooth, dry place,
by breaking all the Jumps, and sprink-
ling out, first a thin layer of one n
then of another ingredient until the
whole is laid out. Shovel together
until very thoroughly mixed and put
through a sand screen. Can you not
afford to mix your own fertilizers for
from SIS to $40 a ton? Agents are run
ming over the country selling formulas
for fertilizers not half as good as the
above, for S. a recipe.

Four-Horned Sheen.

While travelling through northwest
ern Pennsylvania my attention was
called to a curiosity in the line of
sheep. 1t was a breed with four horns,
writes a contributor to American Sheep
Breeder.
One ram had horns the total length
of which was thirteen feet. OF course
this breed will never come into favor
as a profitable breed. Too much nu-
triton is used to produce the horns,
but as a curiosity and a specimen for
parks they will be sought after.
The horns vary greatly as to shape,
but the general form was two standing
straight from the top of the head and
the other two branching from just be-
low the others and in some cases max
ing a curve, while in other instances
they extended straight out.
l questioned regarding the origin of
this breed and found they all came
from n ram left by a travelling COM
pany several years ago. The company
finished the season and asked a farmer
to keep their ram until spring for
them. In the spring they presented
the ram to the farmer.
He took Highland Blackface ewes
and crossed with the ram. The ram
proved very potent and as a result
there is a flock of twenty-five or thirty
sheep with four horns.
They have been crossed in and seem
to keep the original characteristics.
Where the first ram came from l

far as l can learn this is the only
flock in the world.
N~eighboring Flocks.-With but one
or two small focks in a neighborhood
there is sometimes a lack of buyers for
both wool and mutton, but as flocks in
crease in size and number this diff
Guilty will be largely overcome. An
other advantage in being in a neigh
borhood where there are many small
1ocks is that rams can be exchanged
frequently to good advantage; again,
dogs never trouble so much, and If
they do, their depredations are more
scattered. A neighborhood pretty we'll
stocked with profitable sheep Is not as
likely to be overrun with Improbable
dogs as one is where sheep are scarce.
There, too, is more or less competition
to see who has the best-looking flock,
as well as the best-paying one, and the
per cent of increase is watched more
closely when nearby shepherds keep
track of the lambing time.-Ex.
Miniature Trees.-One of the most re-
markable features of Japanese garden
ing is the way in which every plant
and tree in a famous garden will be re-
produced in miniature, by a system of
dwarfng which has been handed down
from many generations back. Every
characteristic of a large tree will be
preserved, the foliage, color and the
texture of the branches, and yet the
miniature copy will often ks not more

Farm Vegetables.-The fresh, crisp,
juicy and finely favored products of
the farm garden may be set down as
one Of the most attractive things in
farm life. The farmer may not appre-
ciate these products as greatly as do
the people of the towns, who see only
stale, wilted, discolored and generally
out-of-condition vegetables in the mar
kets. The farmer who will not give a
thought to his lettuce or his onions or
his green, or other vegetable, because
he Is accustomed to them in their most
attractive state, would find a new in
terest in such things, could he return
to them after a visit to a city and a
diet on vegetables in the usual city
condition. The farmer at home Is
master of his own supplies of vege-
tables, and he misses one of the best
things within his reach when he fails
to secure for himself and his family
a large garden growing a variety of ex-
cellent and wholesome vegetables. Ex-

Storing Onions.-Onions, unless they
have been properly prepared, are diff
cult to keep, but properly ripened off,
dug at the right season and dried as
they should be, they will keep well.
The temperature must be low and the
air dry, as in a warm, moist atmos-
phere they soon grow and are spoiled.
If l had onions to store, not knowing
how they had been dried, l should sub
ject them to 100 degrees heat for sew
eral days, which has almost the effect
of kiln drying. Then place in shallow,
Slated boxes, piled one above another,
in a cellar we'll ventilated and kept

WESTERN PHCTOGRAPHS. 4
An excellent opportunity to secure
fine collections of western photographs
is offered W l.. A. Huffman, the pho
tograph publisher, of Miles. City,
Mont, who now has an eastern office
till East 25th St.. New York. Huff
man is a western man who has been on
the plains for years. He has had the
best opportunities to secure western
views and has awaited himself oththem.
He has a catalogue of $50 pictures that
is offered, the entire collection, for
$50. The pictures are done in the best
of the photographers art, mounted on
cards Sx1O in size, and comprise scenes
OF the west, the originals of which are
passing away and which it is difficult
to secure any other way.
The photograph collections include
round up views, showing all kinds of
pictures CT life and work on the big
cattle ranges, roping, branding, cut
ting out, ranch views, cattle herds,
etc. There are thirty-six pictures in
this group. Cattle and sheep ranch
scenes form another collection. Hunt

animal life and" the chase-photo-
graphs of wolves, deer, bear, etc.

that have passed away forever and
that are only preserved by means OF
these photographs. "A series of views
of Clusters battle ground are also in
the collection, and a series of As cab
