CHAIN TRACE IN OPERATION

they had a weeks hard work on hand
A Yankee neighbor happened to visit
the farm, and after watching the men
for awhile told one of them to go to
the barn and harness a mule and bring
him with a ten-foot chain. Then he
set the men to digging around the
zines and cutting the main roots. When
the mule and chain came he made a
half-hitch with the chain around a
vine near the ground, and attached it
to the mules whiffletree. Then he took
a piece of 2x4 about four feet long,
placed one end on the ground and the
other under the chain, leaning at an
angle of As degrees toward the vine.
The mule was started and the wins
lifted out of the ground. The chain
was unfastened and hitched to the
next, and so on. The whole job was
done with the mule, and was an easy
and speedy one. The same plan win
work with all grubbing where the roots
are not too large. Fence posts can also
be pulled up in the same ay.-Orange

Intend to Engage in the Buni-
ness Next Year.

Select q piece Of ground with good
surface drainage, facing S or
south. The soil should contain a
clover sod which had a crop OF Po-
tatoes taken from it the year before
planting berries, would be my ideal.
During winter or in early spring give
il q liberal dressing Of stable manure
about 8 to IL tons per acre. Plow
under in early spring but be careful
not to pillow when the ground is too
wet. 1 prefer blowing z or 8 inches
deep.
Pulverize ground thoroughly: mark
out with single shovel pillow about S
inches deep; rows 3h feet apart.
Plant every other row to potatoes,
then plant your berries in the re-
naming rows. Now we van good
thrifty, wen-rooted plants. When we
have to purchase them or have to
transport a considerable distance we
want them in a dormant state, but
when plants can be got on an adJoln-
ing plantation / prefer to have plants
well started, say tops 6 inches high,
taking them up with all the soil that
will adhere to roots, only taking
about 3 or 4 dozen at a time and
planting them 3 feet in row., running
the shovel plow through the row just
before planting so the soil is fresh
and moist. As soon as they are set
start the cultivation to form an earth
mulch and ares the evaporation
from the surface of moisture brought
up by capillary attractions; also to
kill all weeds. Keep cultivating all
summer and keep clear from weeds
The potato crop viii pay for the
work and the use of the land. Do
not prune the first season. In n
following spring prune the l~aterals
back to 10 or IL inches. After fruit
ing remove all old canes and all new
canes except 8 or 4 of the strongest,
in August or September.
I take one horse to a breaking
pillow and plow the soil up to the row
of plants, forming quite a ridge The
reason I do this is, it braces up h
plants and keeps them from being
blown over; also it drains the surface
water from the plants and keeps

spring. I prune all laterals back to
s or IL inches. The reason of so close
pruning is it preserves the vitality
of plants. Also it makes them set
less fruit, but it viii be of finer and
better quality and just as many
quarts. I cut the top bud out of all
canes when 2A feet high SO that they
will form laterals. After the second
year cultivate with a double shovel
plow and fve-tooth cultivator. Ny
first plantation has fruited four
crops and this spring has a fine set
of canes for fifth crop and from APP
.pearances will produce paying crops
for three years or more in the future.
I attribute this success to close prun-

new Field for Research.

The world of horticulture is q mys.
FERROUS one, and in il are many secrets
yet to be found out. We have consid-
cred that the question of maternity
belongs to living and breathing ami
mails. But we are nov awaking to the
fact that we must consider maternity
in the vegetable world. AS scientists
investigate, the wonder grows. Not
only are there self-sterile varieties
among grapes, plums and pears, but
among the apples self-sterility exists
co q great extent. More than that,
varieties have been discovered that
have no affinity toward each other and
if planted together viii produce no
fruit. This presents a new field for
Investigation and research.

Grasse. for Dry weather.

Experience during recent dry sum.
mers strongly emphasizes the chief
weakness of blue grass-its almost
entire failure to grow during dry
weather. Orchard grass has been
found best of the ordinary grasses
in this respect, but the common red
clover has shown its superiority to
any of the smaller grasses for either
hay or grazing in dry years. Highly
priced as are the old blue grass pas
lures, it seems clearly proved that
a greater quantity of food would be
produced by putting them under q
rotation, with corn and clover the
chief crops. This would involve more
labor. but in present conditions
would give better prospects Of
profits, said the late Prof. G.. E Nor

VIRTUES OF q ONION.

tits with the onion as with the lemon
It's devotees regard it as a panacea for
a good many ills and as a preventive
of many of the disorders to which flesh
is heir.
The onion is really q very ordinary
vegetable. but there is one point which
DISTINGUISHES it, and that is the some
what high percentage of sulphur 1T
contains. Possibly the virtues ascribed
to it depend On the presence OF this
element.
Like the lemon, the onion may lay
claim Co antiscorbutic properties-
that is, to qualities which render 1T .
preventive of scurvy. Its mineral
constituents include a proportion of
potash salts, and probably its anti
scorbutie qualities depend upon these
latter compounds
The onion is doubtless O hea1thfui
enough vegetable, but its supposed
sleep-producing powers are said TO be
mythical. The virtue of onion juice
as a remedy for the stings and wasp at
tacks is conceded In the cottager's
repertoire of ssfrst-aidr expedients,
onion juice, rubbed on b sting, rep
resents the ammonia of a more adj
.yanced stage OF domestic medicine.

worst Enenie. OF Butter.

Two of the strongest enemies OF
butter to-day are oleomargarine and
the p~reservatives. Both are of the
same general character, for they de-
pend on the greed of men for their
very existence. Both exist in the dark
ness and masquerade under other than
their true characters. 0leomargarine
can be prohtably sold only when it in
sold for butter. The pr~eservatives are
sold by being proclaimed as perfectly
healthful drugs. The ignorant and
vicious buy the chemicals. The ignor-
ant principally buy the bogus butter
products, or st least most OF the
consumers are ignorant. In either case
q dissemination Of knowledge is neces-
sary TO destroy the ensmy.-FarmeEs'

Gridley Bryant, 4 civil engineer, IL
1926, projected the first railroad in the
United States. It was built for the pur-
pose of carrying granite from the guar.
ries of Quincy, Mass, to the nearest
tidewater. Its length was four miles,
including branches, and it's first cost
$4,000. The sleepers were of stone and
were laid across the track eight feet
apart. Upon rails of wood, six inches
thick, wrought-iron plates, three inches
wide and a quarter of an inch thick,
were spiked. At the crossings stone
rails were used. and as the wooden
rails became unserviceable they were
replaced by others of stone.-Ladies'

"A In THE STACK.
How II Can Be with a De-
gree of Accuracy Sufficient for
Ordinary Purposes.

Several correspondents have writ
ten for a certain method of measur-
ing hay in the stack. Here is one
that is said to be quite correct, but
who first formulated it we are I'M
able to say: Measure the stack for
length, width and the cover" To get
the lover" brow a tape line over the
stack at an average place, from
ground to ground, drawing it tightly.
Multiply the width by the over and
divide this result by four; multiply
result of division by the length for
approximate cubical contents of
stack. To reduce to tons: For hay
that has stood in stack less than 20
days, divide cubical contents by SIP;
for more than 20 and less than 60
days, divide cubical contents by 422;
for more than 60 days, divide cubical
contents by $50. For instance, take a
stack which measures IL feet wide,
So feet long and SO eet over. Stack
has stood IS days. Multiply 1? by
So, equals 612. Divide 612 by 4, equals
153. Multiply 153 by length IS, equals
s,S74, which gives the cubical con-
tents in feet. Divide s,s74 by SIP,
equals 17.3 tons in stack.
In the bay the rule is to multiply
the length, width and height of the
bay, or the hay, together, and then
divide the total by $50, the supposed
number of cubic feet in a ton of good
timothy after it is well settled. Thus
a bay 20 feet long. Is feet wide and
Is feet high would contain IL ton
and 1850 pounds. OF curse these
measurements are only approximate,
and the actual results will show
slight variations either one way or
the other. There is no rule that can
be absolutely correct.-Washington
Farmer.
