WHEN TO PLANT CORN.
Under Favorable Conditions, Author
fties Say, There Is an Advantage
In Early Planting.

In experiments at the Indiana sta
tion it was found that the earliest
planting (May y yielded the largest
crop al bushels per 1acre), while the
latest planting yielded about one
fourth less (32 bushels per acre). The
time required for the crop to mature
decreased as the time of planting
was delayed. A delay of 80 to 40
days in planting shortened the time
required for the corn to mature
from two to three weeks. At a Kan
sas station the average results of
experiments in this line carried on
for two years showed that corn
planting in the beginning of May
gave the best results, and at the IL
lnois station the average results of
similar experiments were in favor of
the paintings made from May to
Is, with tendencies slightly favoring
the later dates.
The experiments indicate, there
fore, says the department. of agricul-
ture, that under favorable conditions
there is an advantage in early plant
ing; but in view of the uncertainties
of the weather, which is always
| controlling factor in the growing of
crops, these results must be applied
| with caution in practice. AS Tracy
has pointed out, planting should not
begin too early in the season:
Nothing is gained by putting
| seed into soil which is too cold or
| wet to favor termination. It is bet
ter to defer the planting a week or
ten days than to run the risk of los
ing it by decay or of having an inn
perfect stand by planting before the
ground is sufficiently dry to work
well and warm enough for Immediate
growth. Every missing plant means
decrease in the yield, and replant-
ing the missing hills is seldom prof
liable. The replants are surround
I ed by plants which mature and shed
their pollen before the younger silks
are formed. The pollination is there
fore very imperfect, and the ears on
the replants are usually nubbins,
which are scarcely worth gathering.
When the missing plants amount to
from ten to twenty per cent. of the
whole replanting with some earlier
maturing variety which will produce
its tassels and silks at about the
same time as the original planting is
often profitable, but will not pay
when the misses are less than ten
per cent. When the misses are more
than 20 per cent. it will pay better to
make an entire new planting

Use weeders ON Farms.

I do not believe that many farm
ers can afford to be without a horse
weeder on the farm. It kills weeds
just when they are starting. It gives
rapid, inexpensive cultivation. It
breaks the crust after rains, and does
it at a rapid rate. It gives surface cul-
tivation, letting the roots be undis-
turbed. It keeps the ground level. It
is especially good for cutting out the
little ridge in' the row between the
plants. In loose soil it's work is ideal.
In tougher soil it is even worse
needed right after the cultivator that
has cut out the middles and slightly
ridged the row. 1t is money-saver
in cultivation, but it must be used on
time. 1t is one farm implement that
may often pay its cost in a week S
work. Test this for yourself. .-Alva

HAS A HIGH VALUE.
Scientific Authorities Are Unanimous
in PrOnOuncing Buffalo Grass
Rich i'm Nutriment.

Over vast areas of the west buffalo
grass has always had high reputa-
ton as a pasture for stock, even in it's
winter condition.
This fact gives special interest to an
experiment on its digestibility which
has been performed by the chemical
department of the Kansas experiment
station. The experiment possesses adj
ditional interest because it is the first
one of the kind to be recorded in ref
erence to this important resource of
the great plains.
It being impossible to Investigate
the fresh grass in this respect, some
buffalo grass hay was procured and its
digestibility tried with a grade short
horn steer. He was kept on the buffalo
grass hay alone for five days as pre-
liminary feeding to free his digestive
tract from all other feed, and then he
was fed for five days more, which con-
stituted the digestion experiment
proper. During this time an accurate
account was kept of the hay fed and
the amount uneaten. The dung was
collected by watchers who were with
him at all times. The original hay, the
uneaten residues and the dung were
carefully sampled and analyzed.
Z The results showed very high per-
centage of digestible proteids in buffa-
10 grass hay. In this respect it is con-
siderably superior to Kentucky blue
grass and very much better than tim
othy. 1t has about the same amount
of digestible carbohydrate and fat as
these grasses, but because of it's higher
percentage of protein furnishes bet
ter balanced ration.
Prof. j. T. Willard, under whose di-
rection the experiment was carried on,
says: This valuable grass is worthy
of the most careful protection"

whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation-
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell, and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date of
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable

of one, and as the improved cutter
permits this it should have at least
this advantage to recommend it over
the old pattern of sickle. The draw
ing shows the new cutter in the act
of severing hill of corn, and IL
lustrates the manner of attaching the
device to the foot. 1t consists of a
metallic plate, which is curved to fit
the under surface to the forward end
to be used as the cutter. The op-
orator grasps the stalks with his
hands and gives kick with the toe
against the butts, which cuts the
corn off close to the ground. The
plate is of such light weight that it
will not interfere with the walking,
and a skillful cutter should be able
with this implement to do much more
work than with the old implement.

ANNEXATION GAVE STABILITY
TO ALL HAWAIIAN VALUES

The Expansionist, for September.
contains the following article from the
pen of Mrs. Elizabeth Van Cleve Hall:
The annexation of Hawaii is a sub
! iect which has been under discussion
/ for fifty years at least. The Kane
hamehas, that proud and masterful line
of chiefs, regarded it as the manifest
destiny of their little realm. The events
which led to the final contamination
followed one another so rapidly during
the last decade that many lost sight
of this historic fact.
With the wisdom or unwisdom of an
nexation this article has little to do.
The expansionist and the anti-expan-
sionist will have to fight that out be-
tween tAem. 1t may be that the part
of wisdom in both cases would be 10
accept the situation, lending a hand
TO bring about the best results, or to
prevent the direct consequences and
await developments. America has not
made a serious failure of self-govern-
ment, and it is assuming a good deal
under the circumstances to intimate
that she is incapable of governing 9TH
ers or of teaching them to govern
themselves.
The immediate effect of annexation
upon Hawaii was to give an assurance
of stability. Values increased and new
enterprises, which had only been await
ing the final decision, were started at
once. In his report to the Secretary
Of the Interior, Governor Dole states
that nine out of the fifty-eight sugar
plantations of the Islands may be cred
tied to the stimulus given by annexa-
ton. A few figures quoted from this
report will give clear idea of COM
mercial and Industrial progress under
the influence of annexation:
The value of sugar exported for 1885, |
1899, and the first six months of 1900, |
has been as follows:
