Rudbeckin Golden Glow.

One of the first hardy plants to push
through the ground as soon as the
frost is fairly out is this valuable new
double form of Rudbeckia laciniata,
says Rural New Yorker. 1t has proved
one of the most useful and ornamental
of all hardy plants. When established.
it will grow from six to eight feet high,
the branching stems being covered
with masses of golden yellow double
blossoms. large and perfect and with
out the stiffness peculiar to sunfowers,
which they most resemble. The flow-
ers last in perfection many weeks and
are produced in the greatest freedom
through August and September. These
flowers are coming in demand for
decoration. as in appearance and fin
ish they are more like yellow cactus
dahlias or chrysantbemums than rud-
beckias. The Golden Glow rudbeckia
Is entirely hardy. furnishing its own

SEED CORN.

Look Out For Mold Next the Cob
This Season-Concerning Varieties.
There is a widespread fear all over the
corn belt that much of the corn which
has been cribbed during the season and
from which the supply of seed corn
is expected to be taken is of very poor
quality and is moldy next to the cob.
1t is pretty difficult matter to detect
these moldy ears, as the outside of the
kernel looks bright enough, but upon
picking up an ear and Smelling it the
trouble is at once discovered.
Corn growers cannot use too much
pains in getting their seed corn ready
and in shape for their seasons crop.
1t will hardly do to depend upon corn
that has stood in a crib during the
entire season for your seasons supply,
for the freezing and thawing of the
more to injure the germs of the corn
than anything else, and we believe that
at the price at which good, tested seed
corn is offered by reliable seed corn
sellers and growers no corn grower
would be warranted in taking any
chances with INFESTED seed this year.
We would suggest that this matter be
looked into at once.
Lands of different texture grow one
variety better than another. and it is
to the interest of corn growers to as
certain as nearly as possible whether a
white variety or a yellow variety is
best adapted to their particular fields.
As rule, we believe white varieties
will yield little larger crop of corn
in the ear than the yellow sorts, but
when it comes to Smelling it is those
yellow varieties that have been bred
up that probably turn the balance in
the other direction-Prairie Farmer.

A number of years ago a young man
in the northwest procured some wild
goose eggs, which he set under a hen.
He raised two, which were both fe-
males and which J. o. Frost of Wind
ham county procured from him. He
later obtained q gander that had been
winged, had stood the shock and was
living in captivity After the birds
had mated and grown accustomed to
the general run of the farm they show
ed signs of nesting and were assigned
quarters that proved acceptable, where
they laid and Matched, raising some of
the goslings. Since then they have an
nually raised some. There has been
little if any inbreeding, as one cold,
clustering day pair of other wild
ones flew in at the call of the bonded
ones and allowed themselves to be
driven into the barn in company with
the others.
They show first signs of mating be-
tween March Is and April l. Suitable
provision is made for their nesting,
which they do about May 1 to May Is.
The goose lays from four to six eggs.
While sitting the gander stands guard
over the goose and nest nearly all the
time, except when both are feeding,
for which purpose both go together.
Both gander and goose are very pug
nacious from the time they first go to
nest until the goslings are well grown.

roo Long on the Nest.

Some claim that it is quite natural
for a hen to remain on the nest for a
long time while laying sometimes for
several hours; that it is hard work and
they need a long rest after laying.
Close observation for two seasons past
convinces us that hen in proper con-
dition wants to leave the nest, get a
drink and go to scratching very soon
after she lays. When our hens are
ready to leave the nest inside of half
an hour after entering. we are satisfied
they are in good laying condition. If
they stay ON for one, two or three
hours, we believe it is because they are
either too fat, constipated or going
broody. A good layer seldom wants to
stay on the nest longer than a half
hour. She hasn't time. She must get
ready for the next day. Philip Fl.

called the Chimney apple in Vermont
and is still known as the Snow apple
on lakes Erie and Ontario. The Jona-
than type of apple seems also to be
somewhat related to the Fameuse, and
such varieties of Fameuse as Mcintosh,
Shiawassee and Scarlet Pippin promise
to extend the range of the Fameuse
type into sections where Fameuse itself
has not taken the lead.
The apples in general are finely col
ored. with rather tender skin and flesh,
the latter extremely white and usually
strongly marked with red. very subject
to scab. ripening in late fall and early
winter The trees are usually fine,
clean. rather spreading growers, come
into frutage early and bear heavily
and regularly. Crops are secured usu-
ally in alternate years. but this is sim
ply because the trees are allowed to
overbear in years of plenty. These
facts are gathered from recent inter-
esting report by +. A. Waugh of Yer
mont on this important commercial
type of apple.

MIXING FERTILIZERS.
Shall the Farmer Do It?-Gettin
Down to First Principles.

Shall the Farmer Do It?-Getting
Down to First Principles.
A man has a pain in his knee and
finds that by rubbing certain lini-
ment on it the pain is relieved. The
next week he has q headache, and, re-
membering his knee, he rubs the same
liniment on his head. The pain gets
worse instead of better, and the man
denounces the liniment as a fraud. He
does not realize that the trouble in his
head may come from his stomach. The
liniment helped his knee, but failed to
help his head, therefore it is fraud.
You see, this man fails to recognize
that there were two kinds of aches,
each requiring a different treatment.
He is like the man who uses a ''phos-
plate" or some one sided fertilizer and
obtains good results on a certain crop.
He tries it on another crop or soil and
fails, therefore all fertilizers are
frauds.
Upon the conditions described d Ru-
raj New Yorker correspondent COM
ments thus: A friend once used 200
pounds per acre of nitrate of soda on
wheat in the spring and increased his
yield quite little. Next year he decid-
ed to use only nitrate ON his potatoes.
which were planted on a soil quite de-
ficient in potash. He got large growth
of vines but few potatoes. He said that
nitrate of soda and incidentally all fer
tilizers were mo good.
A fair amount of potash used with
the nitrate would have doubled his
yield, but he would not go down to
the true causes of his failure Such
men make mistake in attempting to
mix their own fertilizers or to use spe-
cial substances. They will do much
better to buy the mixed goods and al
ways select complete mixtures.
Generally speaking, 1t will pay a
farmer to hire experts to mix or plan
for him unless he is willing to think
and study down to the basic princi-
pies that underlie his work. The soil
may have four aches, requiring nitro
gen. potash. phosphoric acid or lime
to cure them. Unless you know which
particular ache your farm has you
would better use all four.

Don't Pen Turkexs.

Il do not wonder that there are so
many failures made in preparing FUR
keys for market when we take into
consideration the course so many
breeders take in fattening their birds, :"
says George Wolf in Farm Poultry,
81 have frequently seen fiocks of tur-
keys penned up in a building for the
purpose of fattening for market, and
it was failure every time. This is
no more than should be expected, for
turkeys are of a wild nature, and as
soon as they are cooped they begin
quarreling, chasing one another about
and constantly worrying for freedom.
They soon tire of their food, grow thin
and will, when killing time comes,
weigh less than when first cooped, with
the expectation Of fattening them"

GENERAL PURPOSE COW.

a Dairyman Who Pins His Faith to
the HoIstein-Friesian.
In an address delivered before the
Kansas State Dairy association Mr..
w. ]. Gillette of Wisconsin said of the
Holstein- Friesian:
The dairyman must bear in mind
that so per cent of the increase of his
herd will be males and must be dispos-
ed of as veal. And here l venture the
statement that, as rule, the Holstein-
Friesian calf at birth is the largest calf
In the world, those of none of the beef
breeds excepted. This fact, together
with its thrift and qualifications to
take on flesh, makes it very desirable
and profitable animal for vealing pur
poses.
Touching upon this subject, w. S.
Carpenter says: ''In my experience of
seven years in the packing house mar
kets and from various other sources l
find that the Holstein veal calf is con-
sidered one of the finest and most prof
table carcasses to place upon the
block" OF the other 80 per cent in
crease of the herd II per cent will
prove for various reasons undesirable
for dairy purposes and must be con-
signed to the block.
Now, we do not. claim that we have
the best beef breed, but we do claim
that of the dairy breeds ours is the
best for beef, and this from the fact
that they are large in size, broad in
their conformation and take on flesh
rapidly when not in milk.
do not claim that a first class beef
animal and first class dairy COW can
be had in the same animal, but the fact
still confronts US that about CT per
cent of the increase of the dairy herd
is unfit for profitable dairy work. In
juries to udders, failures to breed, sort
ing out and many other causes which
render the cow undesirable for dairy
purposes are constantly making in
roads upon the best herds in the land,
and it is not far out of the way to say
that the best kept herds are revolu-
tionized at least every ten years; hence
give us the general purpose COW. By
general purpose l mean a good milk
cow, a good butter COW, a good cheese
COW and COW that can be sold for
beef when her days of usefulness in
the dairy are ended.

KieGer Pear Improving.

SIS 1t Advisable to Plant More Kief-
fer Pear Orchards?" was topic dis
cussed at the recent New Jersey Hor-
ticultural society's meeting, and Mr.. D.
D. Denise said that from the remarks
made Of this fruit since the last crop
was gathered this was hard question
to answer, as we cannot tell what will
take place in the future The quality
of the Kieffer is improving each year,
and the Gamers are using it to a
greater extent than formerly. and this
is largely in its favor. Notwitli-
standing the low prices last fall, his
orchard yielded 500 per acre, clear of
all expenses. and while this is the case
it will be advisable to continue to

SKlMMlLK FOR CALVES.
Change From Whole Milk Must Be


Change From Whole Milk Must BE
Graduated.
Allow calves with the COW three or
four days or until milk is good, writes
a Maryland farmer to Farm and
Home. This gives the calf good
start and aids in reducing the fever
in the cows udder. Wean by feeding
five quarts new milk per day in three
feeds and gradually increase the
amount to six or seven quarts. M
calves are lost by overlooking than
from any other reason. When 2
weeks old, the calf may be changed
to skimmilk, but not faster than one
quart day. The first day give five
quarts whole milk and one pint skim
milk, the second day four quarts
whole and two pints skimmilk and so
on until the change is complete. The
amount of skimmilk may be increased
gradually, but not to exceed nine to
ten quarts daily per head.
Flaxseed Cruel may be added to re-
place the butter fat, made by mixing
ground fiaxseed in cold water, adding
boiling water and allowing to steam a
few hours with cover on the pail. A
teaspoonful of this cruel is enough at
first, but may be increased gradually
to one-half pint of the cruel daily per
head. Flaxseed is better than linseed
meal, since the oil is needed to replace
the butter fat. Calf milk must always
be fed blood warm, 50 to 100 degrees,
and careful feeder will occasionally
test the temperature with a thermom-
eter. Skimmilk not used when sepa-
rated may be cooled and rewarmed
when fed. Sweet milk at one meal and
sour at the next causes sours and
checks the growth of the calf.
