TURNlPS IN THE CORN,
Two Good Crops Crown Together.

Two Good Crops Crown Together.
Sow About the Middle of July.
l have been sowing turnip seed In
my corntield for nearly so years. One
year l sowed 80 pounds of seed on 80
acres and harvested about 10000 bush
els of turnips and a good crop of corn,
says a writer In Orange Judd Farmer.
Plant the corn in straight rows and
keep the cultivator going until about
the middle Of July, then sow the tur-
nip seed directly after the last cultiva-
ton. If two or three dashing showers
fall in a week or so, no covering is
needed. If my ground Is ready and
showers are in prospect, l hasten to
sow my seed. If no rain comes, the
seed must be lightly covered, much as
you would clover seed. Two or three
boards fastened together and drawn
between the rows of corn cover the
seed very nicely.
A strap leaved turnip of the best
variety will grow almost anywhere
provided the plant can get start.
want my turnips for feeding all the
way from September to February, and
l want lot of them. Bushel for bush
ell they are worth more than mangels
during this time. Give the cattle and
sheep plenty of turnips, and no medi-
cine will be needed.
Turnips should be stored as near the
stock as possible, so they can be easily
fed. Any place where ventilation can
be controlled and where frosts can be
kept out will answer | have a cellar
under the driveway Of my barn IL by
32 by 10 feet, which have filled with
roots more than once. Be careful, how
ever not to put any turnips into your
cellar after they have been out on the
ground on frosty night. A few bush
els injured by freezing will start heat
that will destroy all of them.

How Modern Geology Initiates Ac'

How Modern Geology Initiates Ac-
tion OF Prehistoric Ice Rivers.
A miniature glacier which can bc set
to work in a laboratory and which will
i'm a few hours furnish an example Of
what a real glacier would do in as
many centuries is an illustration OF
the novel methods of study which the
new school of geology employs.
Such a model ~ a glacier is now used
for class instruction in the geological
department of Harvard university, al
though it was originally instructed un-
der the direction of DR.. T. \. Jaggar
as an aid to investigations undertaken
for the purpose of showing the fOrma-
ton of sand delta plains by glacial
rivers. These deltaS are found over
many parts of the glacial area Of North
America ana may be seen in process of
formation, for example, at the mouths
of some of the glacial rivers of the
Alaskan coast. An ancient plain of
this sort, dating back to the glacial
period. is in Newtonville, a few miles
from Boston.
The glacial stream flowing from be
meath the ice is supposed to have cary
ed out and deposited successive layers
of sand in the sea or lagoon that wash
ed the ice front. The deposit is leaf
shaped. and when the ice of the gla-
cicr has melted away a stem known
as the "cskcr''of the delta is left, mark
ing the sand cholled channel of the
original stream.
The same result is achieved by the
appliance ut the Harvard laboratory,
which consists of a piece of lead bent
into the general shape of a glacier and
making an artificial cavern set i'll a
tank of water. \ hose supplies the
glacial stream, which is fed through a
tunnel, with alternate coal dust and
marble dust for sediment, which is de-
posted in the miniature lagoon in lay
ers of black and white. The apparatus
has worked perfectly, the experiments
giving variations i'll the forms of the
deltaS according as the water was
maintained at Il higher or lower level,
but always showing the characteristic
front and the surface deposits with
clearly defined beds.

WIPED OUT.

The Ruskin colony has been
disbanded and their paper 1.-The
Coming Nation" sold to satisfy
a $500 chattel mortgage. One
more voice for humanity has been
stiaed and once great and influ-
ential reform paper driven to the
wall. The Coming Nation was
started at Greensburg, Ind, by
J. A. Wayland, present editor of
'The Apperl to Reason" Later
it was moved to Ruskin, Tenn,
where communistic colony was
started and an attempt made to
make tn colony as nearly as
possible an exemplifcation of
Socialism. For a time both the
paper and the colony prospered.
The colony reached a member
ship of nearly 5000 when intern
al dissentions arose the colonists
divided and the remnant moved
to Georgia. Since locating in
Georgia the paper and member
ship have steadily lost ground.
This colony has been watched
with great interest by all reform
ers and especially all who en-
dorsed the tenets of Socialism.
The final failure of the colony
will signify very little to those
acquainted with all the circum-
stances. It will go far toward
proving communistic colonies a
failure when compelled to live
under state and national laws OF
a competitive system
It has been demonstrated that
a republic cannot stand half slave
and half free. It would seem
