ORGANIC NITROGEN.

Saving Its Cost by Growing Cow
peas and Glover.
Many good farmers are coming 70
understand that in ordinary fruit cui-
lure nitrate of soda Is about the only
form of nitrogen they need TO buy. By
growing cowpeas and crimson clover
and fertilizing them with rock and pot
ash they can obtain large supply OF
organic nitrogen which can be renewed
year after year. If the plants give
evidence that they need II, nitrate OF
soda can be plowed in. and the effect
Of this form of nitrogen is so rapid
that a late application VIII ly,keep
up the yield. In this way many farm
ers can save the cost of organic nitro
gen, provided they handle the cowpeas
aud clover TO the best advantage and
use enough OF the minerals in connec-
ton with them.
In some cases orchard growers object
to green manure IN the orchard be-
cause. they say, IL interferes with sur
face cultivation The use OF the cow
pea may remove this objection. The
cowpeas may be planted In drills or.
like corn. in hills, three fee. apart.
This planting may be done about the
1st of June and the eultivator kept
at work through the crop until the
vines are too large TO permit 1t to pass
through At the last cultivation mix
ture of rape and crimson clover seed
may be sown in the cowpeas and cul-
tivated in When 1t obtains a start,
the pigs may be turned In to eat down
the cowpeas, clover and rape and also
destroy small and wormy apples. In
this way we secure not only green
crop, but we are also able to cultivate
thoroughly up to the middle of August.

A simple terminating appaqhtus can
be made from two ordinary plates and
a piece of flannel cloth. Fold the cloth
and lay 1t in one plate, placing the
seeds between folds of the cloth, which
should be moist, not dripping. Cover
the whole with another plate inverted
and stand In q warm place. During
cold weather the temperature should
not be much below so degrees L. at
night and 65 or 20 degrees during the
day. The seeds that have sprouted
should be removed and counted every
day. When the test is completed, the
number of seeds sprouted can be COM
pared with the number put In the test
and the percentage of termination de-
termined. Glover seeds, cereals and
timothy should be tested for about ten
days, while other grass seeds need IA

pxru. Bnccata For Apple stock.

'"rhe winter of 1S9S-9 was q disas-
trous one in many sections of the Unit
ed States to fruit trees. The apple.
among others, suffered very much, be-
ing killed roots and all. This has led
to an effort to secure more hardy
stocks, and Pyrus baccata Is possibly
more in favor than anything else at
the present time. This apple produces
numerous clusters of small fruit about
the size of some Of our larger native
cherries Seedlings of the Transcend
ent crab have also been tried with
good results thus far. Mr.. E. II. 5.
Dartt of Minnesota places little faith
in any of these so called hardy roots
and claims that all were killed alike In
his vicinity. OF course" concludes,
Meehan, this does not demonstrate
that one will not at least prove less
liable to being killed, and experiments
along the line mentioned are worth the
effort Where the snowfall was heavy
and remained on the ground during the
coolest weather the roots were preserv-
ed. BY this is shown that some tenn
porary cover, acting as a mulch over
winter, would help them"

rbe worIa,. wheat Crop.

The statistician Of the United States
department of agriculture has issued
a statement showing the wheat crop
of the world for the five years, 1895 to
1899.
Commercial interest in this state
ment naturally centers in the crop OF
which a portion still remains In the
hands of producers and dealers, the
crop of 1899. The aggregate worlds
production in 1899 amounted to 2,725.-
40T 900 bushels, a decrease Of 195,6SS,-
600 bushels, or little less than z per
cent from the crop OF 1898; but, COM
pared with the average OF the four
preceding years, 1895 to 1S9S-a COM
parison which is obviously more salts
factory-the 1890 production shows an
increase Of nearly @ 1-3 per cent, or,
expressed in quantity, Of 161. $4,000
