SALIENT FARM NOTES.
A Practical Farmer Presents Few
Suggestions Prompted by EN-
perience and Observation.

The great drought of 1901 will serve
to teach many farmers that it is not
safe to put all OF their eggs into one
basket. Thousands of farmers We're
becoming specialists: that is. they
were beginning to grow one crop to
the exclusion of all others. Many
had decided that corn is the most
profitable crop that can be raised in
the so-called corn belt and cit her
were growing or We're preparing to
grow that one cereal exclusively. In
many sections of the drought-s trick
en- area those who had adopted corn
as their speciality find themselves we'll
nigh stranded. The long drought
practically ruined the crop, and all
they will get out of it will be little
fodder. They viii have no grain of
any kind. Oats. wheat. barley and rye
were too early for the drought. and
those who had fields of one or more
of these have "a supply of grain that
will enable them to hold their young
stock, to feed their working animals.
and to carry over d full number of
breeding stock, COWS, sheep. hogs and
fowls.
While there is no question that corn
is the best-paying crop that can be
grown in the great corn belt" the
possibility of a partial or complete
failure of the great cereal should be
sufficient to induce farmers to SOW
oats, wheat. rye or some other crop
on portion of their land. In many
localities oats fail to yield a profita-
Gle crop except in favora BILE years.
They are stricken by rust a few days
before ripening. the grain whitening
and the straw Softening, SO that they
fall of their own weight. If the crop
is carefully watched at the critical
period the first indica tons of rust
may be noted and the crop cut for
hay before injury is done. Those who
have never fed oat hay do not know
what a splendid feed it is. Cattle and
horses Will eat every spear of it, and
do better on it than on good timothy.
Sheep eat it ravenousiy. 1t should be
moved like grass. cured and put up
like hay. ] have seen fields of twenty
to forty acres of oats allowed to go
to waste because they were rusted and
the grain shriveled to chaff, when
the entire lot might have been saved
and converted into the finest hay Que
could wish by cutting when the first
indications of rust were apparent.
j had some COW peas well started
before the drought became severe,
and they have made good growth.
When the soil was as dry as powder
and the temperature was 100 and over
they would look rather limp from
about s a. nj. to nearly sunset. then
they would straighten up again and

had fairly set in, and they came up,
grew about four inches, and stayed
there. There are not more than four
or five inches high at this time DULY
27th), but they are looking lively and
only waiting for rain to jump upward
at a lively rate. Farmers who live on
land that dries out quickly should
make sure OF some early crop for
feed. l have never seen a season that
was so dry that neither nearly nor
late crop could be grown. Nine times
in ten the early crop is the safest,
because it misses the summer drought
that seems to have become almost
inevita bic. Many writer's have adj
vised the sowing of COW peas as late
the middle of June. 1t is far safer
to SOW them early.
There is one thing that every farm
er should do, if his land is in such Il
shape. that he can, and that is to dam
up ravine on his farm as to form
a lake. l know hundreds of farms on
which this can be done at little eX-
pense, and depth of ten to twenty
feet of water secured. l have noted
many sorry attempts at building
/ dams for this purpose. the work be-
ing less than half done. with the usual
resuit-a broken dam and a shallow
puddle. l have also seen the work
well done, and fine lake two to three
hundred yards long, thirty to sixty
feet wide and ten to twenty feet deep
secured, from which hundreds of
pounds of fish and tons of ice are
taken every year.-Fred Grundy, IN

Au.trnIian MatI,. Record Trip.

The most important mail that has left
Australia in years for London recently made
record-breaking trip. The mall consisted
of 347 sacks and contained many documents
for the British parliament. At Sidney it
was put on board the steamer Ventura,
steamship sailing under the American flag
and built only last year for the Oceanic
Steamship company at the Cramps ship
yard in Philadelphia. The trip across the
Pacific occupied just 81 days, the former
time having been % days. From San Fran
cisco the mail was hurried east on special
fast trains on the Southern Pacific Ogden
line1, Union Pacific, and Chicago, Burfing-
ton and Quincy railroads, but arrived IN
Chicago too late to connect with the fast
mail train of the Lake Shore and New York
Central. which is 24-hour train from Chi
cago to New York. A special train was made
up and attached to one of the fastest en-
gines on the Lake Shore line. The regular
train was overtaken at Toledo, and the hour
and half lost time was made up. At Buff
falo. the regular train was made into two
sections by the New York Central with the
mail cars, including the Australian mail, in
the first section. New York was reached
three minutes ahead of schedule time. AT
New York the mail was delivered to the
Campania and that vessel left on regular
time. Barring accidents or unusual delays
it will be delivered in England in several
days shorter time than ever before.

FARMER PLANTER.
WHY NOT STOP THE LEAKS ?
Sources of Loss to Southern Farm rs
Which Little Thought and
Effort Might Stop.

We recently had leak in our wa
ter works. We were very anxious to
have it repaired, because it would
likely increase our monthly water bill.
Travelling as we have recently, over
two thousand miles, among the farm
ers of the south, we have been greatly
impressed with the leaks in farm
methods, and can not help wondering
why our farmers do not stop them.
They certainly greatly increase the
bill of expenses. or what is much the
same, decrease the income.
The. hay leak seems to be the most
general leak upon the farm. Scarcely
farmer seems to fully appreciate
the value of the hay crops growing
upon his farm. Grasses of many
kinds are permitted to grow to waste,
die and be burned up. as if it had no
market value.
Many of these very farmers are
buying western hay to feed on. Many
of their neighbors are buying western
hay to feed their sawmill steers or
mules or their livery stable horses up
on,
We saw one man who was buying
hay at $50 per ton, and yet pulling
fodder and losing all the hay he
might have made from his cornstall>s.
We found one man who had over six
hundred tons of corn stalks. enough
to make over six hundred tons of first
class hay-hut this man could not
make up his mind to buy shredder
to make them into hay. although he
had an engine ready to pull it.
Why not stop this $1,000 leak?
oh on
bagging and ties, when they do not
need either.
Why not stop this leak?
Farmers are buying thousands of
tons of commercial fertilizers. when
good, deep blowing and rapid harrow
ing would do their lands permanent
good and make larger crops than the
fertilizers do.
Why not stop this leak?
Farmers are cutting rocks and
stumps at great expense and loss.
They could easily remove both of
these.
Very many of them are still suffer
ing their lands to wash away. Deep
blowing and suhSoiling would stop
this leak.
Many farmers are still growing
scrub COWS, when the same grass
would grow Shorthorns and Here
fords that would bring in four times
the money. Why not get Hereford
or Shorthorn bull and stop this leak?
Many farmers have what they call
pastures, but bushes, briars worthless
weeds and rocks occupy nearly all the
fields.
Real good grass can hardly get hold.
Why not clear out everything except
the grass and have a pasturea

THE HOG FOR THE PACKER
The Bacon Hog the Most Desirable
and the Most Profitable
For the Raiser.

Mr.. Lucius +. Swift, of Chicago, has
n lengthy and instructive article in
| the Western SWineherd on The Hog
the Packers Wants." We CLEAN from
the article that the favorite weights
are 115 to $50 pounds. Such hogs
yield larger percentage OF high
priced meats, and are not too tat.
When lard is scarce and high the
heavier and fatter the better. There is
always a good demand for hogs
weighing from 40 to 100. if they are
otherwise suitable for making the
best bacon. Hogs fed on corn or
wheat are most dosira BILE. Hogs fed
on soft food, acorns and nuts. make
oily and undesirable bacon. Packers
prefer BeI kshires or Poland Chinas,
because they yield the largest per-
centage of igh-priced meat. York
shires and Tamworths are better for
curing into high-priced bacon. such
as in popular in Canada and England
Butchers prefer white hogs because
they can be dressed so as to make II
mere attractive show. but packers
care nothing for the color of the
hair. There is a sufficient demand
for the bacon hog" but he can not
be made from our American breeds by
any SYSTEM Of feeding. Light bacon
is not necessarily the best bacon. If
American farmers would produce or
grow bacon type of hog. in quanti-
ties sufficient and in supply regular,
then packers could pay premium Tor
such hogs and make bacon for the
British market. No packer can I'M
dertake to supply a special grade of
meat unless he is assured of a suffi-
cient supply of raw material. Unless
there are enough bacon hogs availa-
bic it is not reasonable to expect
them to command the prices they
otherwise would. The man who tat.
tens his hogs as Il part of his cattle
feeding business, using them to util-
ize the droppings, can not make a
bacon hog at all. Corn as an exclu-
sive feed Will not make bacon hog.
Peas, barly, oats. wheat, bran and
shorts are feeds that develop lean
meat, and are necessary to develop
the bacon hog. Mr.. Swift gives the
following advice to farmers from the
packers standpoint:
Il advise farmers to market Young
er hogst-hOgs that are mature 1T
about six months of age, and weigh
from 10 to 25C pounds. \ painstak-
ing, successful farmer. who aims 20
mature and market his hogs at six
months, weighing 22O to 23O pounds.
says experience has taught him that
with corn worth 25 cents per bushel
the first 100 pounds of hog cost him
81, the second $2.75. the third $3.50,
and the last hundred pounds Of a 400
III ;vs
the fact that as a rule the IT'S to 200
pound hogs are in best demand and
consequently sell at best prices. add
ed to the tied-up capital and greater
danger from disease, by holding hogs
to make them heavier, makes Il pow
erful argument for early maturity.
