The Indian territory sentiment reia-
tive to statehood is happily expressed
by Judge \. c. Humphrey of South
McAlestar, in the following: THE
people are strictly in for the Indian
territory becoming part of the state
of Oklahoma the same h,pe that Ok
lahoma is admitted as a state. If the
Indian territory can not be admitted
with Oklahoma at the same time some
big kicking will be done. We want
the two territories admitted at the
same time and oppose the admission
Of Oklahoma before the Indian ter
ritory. The people have equal rights
and both territories should 80 in at
one time. I think it is a burning
shame that the government Of the
United States does not do something
in behalf or the children of the In
dian territory who live in the coun-
try and have no advantages of the

More Apple Figures.

Some weeks ago the Vermont Ex-
pertinent Station was responsible for
the circulation OF some figures showing
profits made in apple growing, Briefly,
these figures showed that Mrs. Laura
E. Allen of South Hero, W., had cleal-
ed 500 an acre from fourteen acres OF
orchard in 1899, and that the crop OF
1900 brought net profit of $lS3 an
acre.
These figures seem not to have been
satisfactory to an inquiring and cap
tious public. Some persons who, know
nothing about the apple business
thought it was fish story pure and
simple,-others who are growing apples
themselves protested that they had
done better, and that the case there
fore had been unfairly presented. Sew
eral communications were received on
the subject by the horticulturist of the
Experiment Station, who is now happy
to add the following statistics to those
already published:
Mr.. Lucian Allen, also of South
Hero, has 300 apple bearing trees, COW
ering between five and six acres of
land. From these he sold in New York
257 barrels of the crop of 1900, for
which he received a gross return of
$o75.25, or an average price of $40 a
barrel. Freight, carriage and commits
sions ate up STATS of this sum, leav.
ing net cash return of S7OO.50. These
figures are taken directly from the re-
turns OF the commission man, (and the
commission man seldom returns more
money than the fruit brings.) In add
ton to the S700.50 received for apples
sold in New York, Mr.. Allen sold a
considerable quantity at home, from
which he realized an additional $l98. 80.
This makes a total of $500 for the
years crop, or $3.50 to $3.50 an acre.
Another Vermont apple grower, who
objects to having his name used, but
VhoSO uOSOuuto uufO U66u tAdIQlu6u
and found correct, has made still more
remarkable sales. Last year his total
sales (not metz were SO, 543. 25 from 1Ot
acres. One single block of trees, GOV
ering Al acres, gave net return of
S1,272, or over 1882 an acre clear profit
on the farming. The figures from this
orchard are not now available for pre-
vious crops; but to the writer's pei
sonal and disinterested knowledge the
returns have been almost equally good
sometimes full better-every year for
several years past. During at least ten
years there has not been a single crop
failure in this orchard
And there are plenty more figures
like these.-Vermont Experiment Sta

and will also make more labor to pre-
pare the land for the ensuing crop.
Last season we noted the report of a
corn grower who used the Planet, Jr.,
horse hoe in his corn field after the
corn was too large to cultivate with the
ordinary cultivstor. This hoe is sim
gle horse cultivator, and is compare
lively cheap. Fitted with the long,
knifelike blades to run just below the
surface, every weed in the space cover
ed by its shoes is destroyed. The cult
vator is adjustable, and can be made
wide or narrow. The work can be rap
idly done, and this is desirable, for the
time for using this implement is limited
to few days. A row can be cleaned
between the hills of each passage. A
number of these hoes were put in the
field, and the most favorable results
were reported. The increased yield in
the crop and the decreased cost of la
Dor to clear out the weeds would soon
pay for the cost of the tools.-Colman's

the seller has, so to speak, yielded to the
pressure. From this yielding, however, it
would not be we'll to infer too much, as the

seem TO warrant weakening.

Manuring the Grass Field.

No intelligent farmer needs to be
told that stable manure is an excellent
dressing for promoting the growth OF
grass and thereby increasing the guam
tity of the hay crop. In this paragraph
we shall not consider whether this il
the best way in which to accomplish
these purposes. A great many of our
readers like to keep some of their fields
pretty constantly in grass and maintain
the fertility of the land by spreading
plant food upon the surface. To some
of them we believe word of sugges-
ton will be useful. When spring opens
these men are, very properly, in great
haste to fit the land for their sowed
crops and prepare other fields for plant
ing. They give these things their first
attention. There are others, who de-
lay the manuring of the grass because
they do not feel sure how much they
want to spare from the other crops. So
it is often the case that the grass has
made considerable growth before the
manure is spread.
And unless great care is taken to
make it very fine the manure will in
many spots somewhat retard the
growth of the grass, and more or less
injury will be done by the tramping OF
men and teams while the work is in
progress. BY this time, too, the best
periods for manuring the grass plants
have passed. A light application after
growth has ceased in the fall, or just
before it commences in the spring, will
insure larger and more uniform crop
than will much heavier coat that is
given when the grass is half grown.
Besides, under the most favorable con-
ditions, the grass crop has only short
time in which to grow, and if the sea-
son proves to be extremely dry this
period is still further limited. Conse-
quently, if the manure has not been
used before the grass has become pref.
ty well started, we would advise con-
sideration OF the question whether il
will not be best to keep it in the yard
(properly protected of course), until
fall, or else plough another field in
which to use it now. In these days OF
sharp competition it is not enough tC
merely put the manure where it will DE-
good. 1t ought to be applied where i
will be likely to make the largest ant
the longest continued returns that car
be obtained from its use.--(Practica

ture in field OF corn caused by a
growth OF 3540 pounds Of weeds to the
acre was very marked, especially at
depths varying from three to six in
ches and the corn crop was reduced
from 1912 pounds where thorough
cultivation was given, 10 $3.50 pounds,
or more than fifty per cent, where the
weeds (mostlY pigeon grassy were al
lowed to grow freely. 1t is believed
that the weeds evaporated more mois-
ture per pound of dry matter than the
corn.
Competing the lower portion Of the
furrow slices with a subsurface packer
had little or no effect in increasing the
moisture in the lower portion of the
slices, either when the ground was fall
or spring plowed or when coarse ma
nures were plowed under. Subsoiling
for corn apparently reduced the yield
of grain 10 per cent and of slower Is
per cent.
With wheat the grain yield was
slightly reduced with the weight Of
straw slightly increased on the surface
packed plats. Out of seventeen COM
parsons with oats, potatoes, turnips,
fodder corn, wheat and sugar beets,
fourteen show decreased yield from
subsoiling. The conclusion reached is
that "subsoiling is expensive and not
profitable under most conditions in
Minnesota"
The moisture content Of soils surface
cultivated, mulched, plowed and plow-
ed and subsoiled was studied. AT the
depth OF three to six inches the surface
cultivated soil had only about one per
cent more moisture during most OF the
season than the soil which was COM
pact to its surface, and late in the sea-
son it had no more.
When the soil was plowed six inches
deeper, the moisture in the subsoil was
much better conserved by the loosened
earth than in bare compact soil. Plats
mulched with layer of straw four
inches deep contained five per cent
more moisture than bare soil, huctuated
with weather changes less sharply, and
retained their warmth longer.
Soil moisture is conserved by plow-
ing, which loosens the soil to depth
of several inches; by cultivating be-
tween the rows, which keeps loose the
upper two inches OF soil; by mulching,
which allows the rain to penetrate the
soil, but not leave it; and by having
the plowed furrow slice clearly fallow
all or part of the year, thus avoiding
the draft OF growing plants on the soil
moisture.
Moisture is dissipated by growing

Clean Corn Fields.

Farmers know that profitable corn
can only be grown on ground that is
kept as free of weeds as possible, for
the weeds not only rob the corn Of
plant food, but absorb large quantities
of moisture. Then il it is desired to
SOW the ground to COW peas when the
corn is being ''laid by" or to wheat in
the fall after the corn is cut, clean cul-
ture permits much better preparation
of the seed bed. Many succeed in
keeping the corn field, in good sea-
son, free from weeds until the corn
gets too large to work with the riding
cultivators. But II there are late rains
soon after it has been laid by many
harmful weeds grow and mature seeds
that are detriment to the corn crop,
