Wheat OF Four Cents.

The wheat market appears to be a
shakey matter. Three days have
lapsed since the squirt and in two
days it has declined almost eight
cents. The market seems to be strong
but while the little occurred it was
cold water for the buyers and some
what cooled off their intesest in the
great product.
July wheat opened at $50 and
closed at SO. August wheat opened at
sc to s5 and closed at s326.
Cotton picked up few points and
tried to make good appear
ance. 1t has been gaining
points for the past four days, and now
has about Ga TO 20 points gain to its
credit, August cotton is quoted at
s.99 to 9.O0c. and July at S.95 to .99c.
Other stocks and pro iucts show great
activity, but this week, SO far, is not
as notorious as the past one for the
springing of prices. q

overworking Children.


We are sorry 10 see 1t stated in a
Maine paper that a girl Is years old and
weighing 115 pounds has done the full
work of a man during the haying sea-
son in one Of the towns Of that State.
We have no special objection TO having
young ladies or older ones work out of
doors on a farm If they wish to and
have the strength, and we think many
of them would be in better health for
such a chance to take exercise in the
open air, but we want all good things
in moderation, and we would not like
to see either girl or boy of that age and
slight physical build allowed to do a
full days work for man in the haying
field. Even If much of it was on the
moving machine, hay rake or tedder,
we know from experience that they are
not easy riding vehicles, ard while
there is much work that a girl or boy
can do in the haying field, we do not
believe it right to work them beyond
their strength at such an age. Many a
boy and girl too has received lasting
dislike to farm life because of over
work.-American Cultivator.

Straw is put to strange uses in Japan.
Most of the horses are shod with straw.
Even the clumsiest of cart horses wear
straw shoes. In their case the shoes
are tied around the ankles with straw
rope and are made of the ordinary rice
straw, braided so that they form a sole
for the foot about half an inch thick.
These soles cost about half penny per
pair, and when they are worn out they
are thrown away. Every cart has a
stool, of fresh new shoes tied to the
horse or to the front of the cart, and in
Japan it was formerly the custom to
measure distance largely by the num-
Der of horseshoes it took to cover the
distance. So many horseshoes made a
days journey, and the average shoe
lasted for about eight miles Of travel.

There has been much discussion in
some of the Western papers as to the
cause of cattle dying suddenly after
eating green sorghum. All were
aware of the facts, yet chemists
have been unable TO detect any
poison in the sorghum plant or in
the organs of the animals that died
from eating it. A writer in the Louis

way last year cattle that cost him ST.

s<Ss: 1.-The blamed stuff won't be
Swallowed. 1t simply gets warmed and
limbered little, coats itself over with
the tough. sticky saliva, or slobber re-
pairs to the CLOTHS, pastes itself smooth
ly over that organ, closing the trachea,
or windpipe, and the poor brute in the
greatest distress and misery smothers
TO death-dies for the want of air. My
remedy would be TO swab out the
throat Immediately so as to remove the
bits Of blades that have pasted them
selves over the CLOTHS, or opening to
the windpipe. They will sometimes
stick there like a wet paper to the roof
of the mouth. The saliva of the COW is
more sticky than that of a human, and
the smooth blades of sorghum stick
worse than fuzzy leaf" His explana-
ton seems plausible at least, and those
who lose cattle Ia this way should ex-
anime the entrance to the windpipe to
sec if it is closed

Abandoned Farms.

We have seldom seen a better excuse
for the abandoned farms in New En-
gland than we find in the Farming
World of Toronto, in an article from a
Canadian correspondent. who tells why
many of the early settlers in Canada
had not met with the success which
they deserved by their courage, their
yigor and their hard work He says:
ssMany of us settled on land which never
should have been settled on, that should
have been kept in woods, in which con
dition it would have been worth hun
dred times more than it has been in a
cleared condition" He also says Gin
many cases those looking for locations
were not qualified TO judge for them
selves as to the fitness of the land they
we're looking at, particularly when COW
cred with unbroken wood, and their
eagerness to locate on land of their own
prevented them giving thetime and care
TO the subject that such an important
subject deserved" We cangive no bet
ter reason why many farms in New
England. which are abandoned or
should be. eyer became settled and we
rejoice whenever we hear Of their being
returned to the growing of forests. from
which they never should have been d.
verted Farms which were settled in
this way should have been abandoned
years ago. and left to the ranovating
process Of a wood growth to bring them
tn a fertile condition again.-American

yaIue of a DAYS Rain.

Crop experts in the West estimated
that the corn crop in Kansas would not
be more than one-half full crop.
After one days rain they changed their
estimate to so per cent, thus adding
1O0,000,000 bushels to the amount and
at least $50 100000 to the value of that
one crop. In Nebraska after a day of
rain they estimated the value of the
corn crop to be SOL, sos, S52 more than
they had expected on July !. There
then is some $S6,O00,O00 more for the
farmers of those two States because Of
one days rain. If those who claimed
to have process of producing rain by
artificial means had but made their
claim good, what salary they would
have been entitled to ask.

There is. a well-founded belief that
the cow who is persistent mixer does
not produce the best calves. While this
is SO. the methods generally employed
to overcome this trouble are far from
the best. The usual plan is to cut off
the feed, oftentimes TO the point of
starvation; surely a most unwise lnaye
and in nine cases out of ten results in
injury to the COW. The period of lacta-
ton depends more largely on the sys-
tenn of feeding than farmers are willing
to admit, though ancestry must be
back of it all, for the most intelligent
feeding in the world will not make 4
We're in the habit of going dryifor three
or four months. Naturally, if the breed
is a good one, the desire is to keep up
the period of lactation as long as posi-
bic, and yet have good calves. Particu-
larly is this desirable if the calves are
to be raised. The best plan for accom-
plishing this is to feed the COW the nee
essary. food to keep up a fair flow of
milk, and with this food that will ben
eft the unborn calf. While doing this
keep milking the COW until she natural
" falls off in supply. With a heifer
having the first calf. milking should be
kept up as long as possible before the
next calf is born, in order to establish
the long period of lactation, for if the
heifer cow goes dry early after the first
calf it will be extremely difficult to
carry her beyond that period afterward,

Saving straw.

A Kansas correspondent of the Farm
er's Tribune calls attention to the great
waste of many farms by the careless
way in which the straw is put up, not
in stacks, but in piles, usually by a
gang of boys who think they are doing
all that is expected of them if they can
keep it out of the way of the carrier or
the elevator. We think there are farm
ers nearer than Kansas who have the
same fault, and lose money by it, Straw
is too valuable as rough fodder in
sections where hay is high priced to be
wasted as it often is. And even where
hay is cheap there are uses for straw as
mulch, as matching and bedding, for
which it is worth more than hay. Put
a good man at the straw stack, or build
a good stack of the straw after the
threshing is over, and then try to learn
how to save money by making a
profitable use of that which is now
going to waste.
