A Bishops Discoyerx About Hens.

The archbishop Of Canterbury, in
his youth had some experience as a
farmer. Evidently the bishop of Lon
don's education in that respect was
neglected. In the account of one OF
his speeches at the church congress he
Is reported as saying: "There is a GER
tain class of people who are like hens
when they have laid aa egg. They
form their opinion with such di ficulty.
apparently, and so seldom, that when
they have formed one they go and crow
to all the world to show that t ey have
done it. /" We would respectfully adj
wise DIR. Creighton not to draw an
illustration from growing hens if he
should ever be addressing rural au-
dience. -Westminster Gazette.
Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1900-02-02

Something from nothing you can't
take. Most OF us are beginning to
realize the truth Of this tri.e saying in
egard to most things about us. 1t is
a poor farmer who does not realize
that he can not take the grain from
the fields year after year, returning
nothing to them without some time,
sooner or later, getting to the end OF
his st ing and finding his land run
down and bankrupt. But some poul-
trymen ha g not discover ed that the
same principle holds good in regard TO
hens. You can't get something from
nothing there either. If your hens are
10 lay eggs, they must have something
to work with; they must get egg-form-
ing elements from some source or
other. In recent years the practical
poultryman has been able to double
his egg supply in the winter by care
lul study of egg producing foods.
Prominent among these must be
place green cuf-bone, a food that is
easily aud cheaply obtained and that
is undoubtedly the greatest G.
producer ever fed to hens. The bone,
when finely cut while it is still green,
supplies that element of animal food
so needed and relishel by fowls, tax
ing the place of the bags and worms
which hens deyo II SO greedily upon
the range. Moreover, the Zone sup
plies the mineral matter needed for
egg formation, the lime, the phos
plate, the magnesia, ID is, in short,
an ideal egg food. When we consider
how cheaply the bones can be pro-
cured, and how little trouble it is to
pre- are them for the fowls, it IS diff
suit to understand why any poult' y
man neglects their use. Tennessee

In the vicinity of cities and large
manu- aeturing towns the intelligent
farmer will find it to his interest to
contine himself to one or two crops,
as money crops, but in his selection
be should exercise his best Judgment
TO select only crops adapted to bis
particular soil and locality. He should
also sele t tho which he un lerstands
bow to grow and takes interest enough
in the subject to investigate, and
should experiment sufficiently to keep
in advance of the ordinary cultivator.
There are many advantages in hav-
ing one principal cror. The farmers
attention is not distracted as with
mixed farming, and his mind being
concentrated on one point, he is more
likely to know the proper time to PER-
form the different operations for the
crop, and to realize the importance of
never being behindhand in doing any
Of them. 1t is true that TO succeed
we'll III special crops requires as high
intelligence as in mixed crops, if not
higher; for whom the producer goes to
market with his crops, his principal
competitors are those who are devot-

Fertilizinr Corn for Grain.

Farmers well understand MS a rule
that live stock are fed with reference
to what is expected of them. Feeding,
for example, for milk is very difTe.
ent thing than mere maintenance
ration or from a fatteling ration. In
the same sense, crops may be fed for
grain or for forage-that is, stalk and
/ leaf.
Few farmers but have had expert
ence with rank growth of stalk. but
light yield OF gram, in growing orn,
and in some cases this may be desr-
able Corn grown for the silo is a
very different matter from corn grown
for gram, and no observant farmer
will use the same methods OF culture
for both.
1t sometimes happens, very fire.
quently, in fact, on soils long under
the pillow, that though the corn is
grown for grain, the yield is very dis
appointing. Lack of rain does not al
ways account for this, as neighDoring
+ Q de prove satisfactory though sub
ject to the same climatic conditions.
Throughout New En- tland corn is
commonly grown on clover sod. 1t is
noticeable that the poorer the sod, the
poo er the yield Of grain, though the
stalks may make brave showing so
far as height is concerned, though
they are generally badly down at ha.
vest. This is due directly to lack of
mineral fertilizer, potash aud phos-
pilates.
Clover roots and stubble carry con-
siderable potash and phosphates, but
clover, like other pants, may be
STAYED in mine al plant food, though
still making eat show of growth.
The writer has seen clover fields which
promised at least two tons per acre,
but which bare y gave one when put
to the test. Germ on such clover sod
is sue to give light crop of grain,
and also grain which will not weigh
up in the bushel measure.
in some way potash aud phospha'es
have marked effect on the produc-
tim of seeds of plants. I he two ier-
tiiizer ingredients seem to act in con-
junction, the one aiding the assimila-
tion OF the other. On soils somewhat
light, kainit alone has been known to
give large yields Of we.l-filled-out
grain.
The mineral fertilizers may be APP
piled with excellent results as late as
the middle of June, broadcasting in
the rows Just before working. On
soils in good filth, the application
may be doubled very probably. With
such treatment, there may be no fear.
or even risk, OF light yield of grain
accompanying heavy yield of stalks;
or. in fast, failure Of the crimson
cl yer sown in August, provided the
clover seed be of good quality. IS. P.

Ii milk is from healthy COW that
has wholesome food, pure air and

ably expect the intercelluar 81 aces in
the milk to contain nothing oh. ection-
able to the organs of smell or taste.
Cons derab animal heat is of course
p ese1t at first, but this passes of
quickly during the cooling of the milk.
Indeed, if obtained IN the manner
just descr bed, milk may be bottled
and submerged in ice water before il
becomes fairly cold, with the very
best of results.
This also IS the proper method of
chilling pasteurized m Tx, which we
prefer to bolt at temperature of
not less than 10 degrees fahrenheit.
1t is surprising how rapidly bolt
of hot milk will coil down in tank
of ice water or even water at 80 de-
grees fahrenheit. Water cools bot
tied milk faster than air, even though
the latter lie 20 degrees colder than
the water. Chilled in this manner,
i. g., in stoprered bottles, milk loses
its heat without any replace 4 ent of
air between the molecules and is
therefore certain not to have been
conta minated during the process. =
