Farm Cattle.

It is not true that the cattle business
to be profitable must be conducted on
the broad ranges of the Western plains,
says Texas Farm and Ranch. That is
one profitable system of cattle raising,
but there is another which yields fully
as great profits for the capital invested.
Raising cattle on the farm has in all
countries and all ages been found prof
table, and more so now than ever. By
raising cattle on the farm the farmer
has a good market for all the feed he
can raise, saves labor and expense OF
transportation and avoids much loss
from waste and the hocus pocus of
commerce. And one of the main fea-
lures of stock farming is that it can be
made to continually improve the fertil-
ity and value of the farm.

Extending End Gate.


When corn has been loaded on wag-
On, 1t Is very unhandy to shovel off at
hrst until the bottom of the wagon box
has been reached, says an exchange.
To overcome this difficulty different
methods are followed, such as laying
one end of a long, Wide board on the
end gate Of the wagon and the other
on the floor Of the box before loading
and shoveling on the board till the bot
tom OF the box is to be got at, but the
extending end gate, shown In the pic
ture, will be found among the best OF
these expedients. 1t is fastened to the
bed of the box by strap hinges which
are sunk into the wood SO as not to in
terfere with the shovel. The gate is
made wide enough to allow the side
pieces to be outside of the box. Iron
straps hold the side pieces secure on
the gate. A rod Of one-quarter inch
iron Topped in the manner shown In the
cut is attached on each side. Thumb
screw bolts enable the looped rods to
hold the gate when let down. When
the hand bolts are screwed up tightly
on the rod, they will hold the gate when

Storing AprIes in Winter.

The Canada experimental farms
made experiments to ascertain the best
methods Of storing apples in winter.
Specimens wrapped in paper kept bet
ter than those not wrapped, and there
were few rotten apples, and they lost
least by evaporation. The ground floor
storeroom did not preserve them as
we'll as the cellar. A tight package
preserved the fruit best in storeroom,
but not in cellar Per contra, venti-
lated package did better in cellar than
in storerOom.

horticultural Notes.

.Pruning.-EXamine trees recently
planted, and if the wood is not plump
prune them in closely, as shriveling
proclaims the roots unable to supply SO
much top.
Bleeding Heart.-A strong root of
bleeding heart potted and placed in a
window in winter will be sure to give
you flowers, and it's large, rosy, pink
blooms are charming to look on.
Hedge for Limited Place.-Where
space is limited use arbor vitae for a
hedge 1t forms complete one, while
growing tall without spreading. Hem
lock and Norway spruce require more
ground room.
Fern for Indoors.-A variety of the
sword fern, known as the Boston fern,
is in much demand for indoor use. All
of the family to which it belongs are
useful in the same way, not objecting
to air of dwellings,.
Basket Willows.-There are favorite
willows for basket-making, such as the
Forbyana and Purpurea, because Of
their f1exibility, but those who make
baskets use many kinds, some of stout
growth and some of slender growth.
plants are started free of insects they
are rarely much troubled with them in
winter, but vigilance must be exer-
cised to keep them clean, as their we'll
doing is greatly dependent on this.
A Mistake.-It Is mistake to rake
up the leaves in the wood lot or any
other place where they may be allowed
to remain. Besides being of value as
a winter protection, when decayed they
add much to the fertility of the ground.
Blaekberries and raspberries grow
from shoots formed just below ground.
When transplanting them the mistake
of setting them too deep, practically
killing them, is not uncommon. The
roots should be but just below the sur
face.
The Snyder blackberry is popular
sort in the Northwest because Of its
extreme hardness and its productive
ness. Taylor's prolific has larger fruit,
but 1t is hardly as hardy as the other,
but quite hardy enough for the Middle
States.
Seeding Peaches. -Californians say
the Seeding peaches are much longer
lived than others. This is not new.
Seedlings Of all kinds possess more
yigor than trees raised in any other
way, but how would the world get
along without budding and grating?

Handy Helps in Butchering.

To clean and carry a hog with ease
use short ladder about six feet long
will do and place legs about foot long
under each end. Place little tar In
the scalding water, and the hog will
clean easier. For good hog scraper
take a piece of an old grass scythe
about four inches in length, with edge
rather dull. In place of scalding
trough large cask laid in slanting
position will answer the purpose almost
as well. Two good rails placed in a
slanting position against building is
the simplest method Of hanging a hog
easily.
To clean pork barrel that is tainted
and has bad smell about it wash it out
as clean as you can, then whitewash it
with fresh Stacked lime. Let the barrel
dry. and it is ready for use. The lime
will not hurt the meat at all-Kansas

Big Gain in Winter Wheat.

The statistician of Department Of
Agriculture estimates the United States
wheat crop of 1900 at 522, 229, 5O5 BUSH
els, the area harvested being IL, 495, 1886
acres and the average an acre 1929
bushels. The production of winter
wheat is estimated at Soc, 025, 400 BUSH
els, and spring wheat at IT., 10000
bushels, the area actually harvested be-
ing 26, 1885, 1897 acres in the former case
andr16, 259, 4SS acres in the latter. The
winter wheat acreage, totally aban-
doned in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and
Illinois, is finally placed at 1922, 1877
acres, and the spring wheat acreage,
totally abandoned in North Dakota and
South Dakota, at 1,793, 467 acres. The
extraordinarily rapid rate at which the
winter wheat acreage Of Nebraska is
gaining upon the spring wheat acre.
age of that State has necessitated a
special investigation of the relative ex-
tent to which the two varieties were
grown during the last year. The result
of the investigation is that while no
change is called for in the total wheat
figures of the State, 590,575 acres have
been added to the winter wheat column
at the expense of the spring variety.

Good Cows in Demaud.

While certain sections are selling
some of their milk cows and fattening
others, because of scarcity of hay,
we do not notice any lack of demand
for good cows in our market report or
any falling off in their price. In fact,
not for many years has trade been
more active or prices better in Boston

Big Mares.

The breeding of draft horses of ex-
IRENE weight is not likely to be over
done In this country for long time,
says the National Stockman. The fact
Is there are not any too many mares
that can produce the top weight kind.
A good, big draft mare is, therefore,
worth money to the man who is fixed
for raising heavy horses. Breed her to
a good, big stallion, feed her and the
foal plenty of good growing feed, such
as oats, bran and clover hay, with some
corn, too, and there is no danger of an
understood colt. Draft blood Is some
thing, but not everything. Lack of feed
in early life accounts for a whole lot Of
draft bred horses that are only
chunks of 400 pounds or less. I'm

ket and a large number of traders would like to see a decline on which to buy some cotton. A representative of a prominent firm which has been rather skeptical over damage reports stated this morning that the news coming over their wire was anything but favorable and they would like to see a decline in the market to get hold of some cotton.
 Other private wire houses reported about the same kind of news coming from the belt and unless rains are forth coming in the near future damage reports will become more numerous.
 When our market opened down this morning there was practically no pres sure of cotton and a considerable demand from various parts of the pit. That 2 there was more cotton wanted than : pressed for sale was indicated by the steady advance in October from 7:5S to 764 during the afternoon. From the &C., tion of the market the purchase of a few thousand bales would create a decided change in price and sentiment. As far as the technical situation is concerned, there is a long interest in certain quar- ters playing for an advance. If rains hold off much longer a broader specula- tion is expected but much depends on rains
 In the event of good rains this cotton will come on the market. But so far the rainfall has been limited to few sections and the need of rain Is growing more widespread every day.
 There is still nothing in the outlook upon which to look for lower prices.
