Improvement In sx,ne.

Inc term Improvement is only rela-
tive. There is no such thing as the
Improvement Of swine in the abstract.
When we speak Of the Improvement of
swine we mean in the relation of the
hog to man. In the relation of the
hog to himself there has been no i'm
provement. but rather an absolute de-
terioration. Let the human race dis
appear from the earth at this time
and the hog would be in bad shape to
survive. At least this would be true
OF the improved hog. He would fall
a prey to hunger, for he could not
hunt his own food except under the
most favorable circumstances; If any
wild animal got after him he would
be unable to fight, for his tusks have
been bred out. Even as relates to
man the Improvement made by one
generation is not the improvement de-
sired by another. There was time
when bigness counted for nearly ev-
erything in the improved hog. Now
the buyers want Quick-grown hogs Of
medium weight. The next improve
ment will probably be more lean meat
in the hog. because the buyers taboo
the fat. The next generation will see
new standards of improvement estab-
lished. The present lines of breed
ing will have to be modified from year
to year as demands change.

It will pay the ordinary farmer to
grow only well tried fruits. He has
not the time to experiment with new
things, or at least he will not take the
time. Avoid high-sounding names. and
accept as, established only those that
are extensively grown. We would not
give this advice to the professional
fruit grower. He has time to give to
some new things, and man to be
progressive must berlooking after the
new things as well as the old.
A correspondent Of The Farmers Re-
view recently wrote that he had no
faith in spraying; that II the birds
were protected there would be no need
of spraying. The attention OF the cor
respondent should be called to the fact
that the prime reason for spraying is
to prevent fungus 4 attacks, such as
those producing the apple leaf scab.
Birds can have no effect in checking
troubles Of that kind. Spraying with
Bordeaux mixture was first tried in
Bordeaux, France. to keep the boys
from stealing the grapes. The owner
Of the vineyard found that It also

Z A circular from the department: Of
agriculture says: Smooth bronze

Europe for over 100 years. The early
agriculturists did not consider It, Of
any value because Of its creeping root
stocks. thus resembling couch grass.
In 1884, however. stebler and Shroeter
demonstrated by experiments con-

experiments resulted in introducing the
grass into cultivation in Hungary,
where it still retains the name of Hun
garian brome-grass. Its introduction
into the United States must have taken
place about the same time, for we find
the seed is offered for distribution in
Bulletin % of the California Experi-
ment Station, issued Nov: s. 1884. and
the statement made that ''our ex-

since then the experiment stations of
colorado, Minnesota. Manitoba, North
Dakota. South Dakota and the differ
ent grass stations Of the agricultural
department. Washington, D. c., have
conducted extensive experiments and
all speak OF It in the highest terms.
Smooth brome-grass is a native of
Europe and Asia, ranging from France
eastward to Siberia, growing along
roadsides, river banks, borders of fields
and woods, and upon sterile hillsides
and pastures. 1t is vigorous, hardy
perennial with strong, creeping root
stocks, smooth, upright, leafy stems,
one to four feet high. and loose, open
panicles. or seed heads" four to eight
inches long. In few years it forms a
very tough sod, soon crowding out
other grasses, clovers and weeds. Its
remarkable drouth-resisting qualities
have proved it to be the most valuable
grass for dry regions where other
grasses could hardly exist.
AS 1t is thoroughly permanent and
grows with wonderful rapidly, pro-
duclng heavy crops and luxuriant pas
ture, Its value TO the farmers of dry
regions cannot be over-estimated. All
kinds of stock eat it with relish and
the chemical analyses made show that
it is rich in fiesh-forming ingredients,
much more SO than timothy. It is
very hardy and not injured by severe

but deaths are frequent. Most of these
deaths can be explained by the cattle

Dlackleg in Nebraska.


The Division of Animal Pathology
OF the Nebraska Experiment Station
OF the University of Nebraska has
been busy since the first Of the year
in the distribution OF the blackleg vac
cine, in which it is cooperating with
the Bureau Of Animal Industry of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The increase in the distribu-
ton is shown in the fact that during
the year 1899 the division furnished
nlackleg vaccine to 2O3 applicants in
hfty-six counties, the total number of
doses being 23,256. Since the LIST of
January, 1900, the division has fur
nlshed the vaccine to I'll applicants in
.orty-seyen counties, the number of
ooses aggregating $4,000. In the cor
responding period of 1899 twenty-three
applicants received 1900 doses, or one
tenth as much as the present season.
lnls greater demand for vaccine is due
rather to an increased knowledge of
and confidence in the remedy than to
an increase in the prevalence of the
disease.
The records show that the calls
nave come from persons that used the
vaccine last year and from their neigh
bors. The reports of the applicants
snow that it has reduced the mortality,
absolute satisfaction having been Civ
en- in over SO per cent of the cases.
This work is being taken up very en-
tnusiastically by farmers and stock
men over the state, It has been one
OF the very important subjects that
have been discussed at farmers insti-
tutes by this division Of the station.
The division at these institutes ex-
planned the process of the manufac-
ture of the vaccine and how it is ap-
Piled. There is now ready for publ
cation by the station a bulletin which
treats on the subject in a popular way,
dealing with the age and species OF
animals attacked, the cause Of the dis
ease, disposition of the blackleg car
cass, symptoms, post-mortem appear
ances, methods Of treatment. and e.

the only reliable and economical meth.
