In the battle with weeds the first
point is not to let weed seeds be car
ried onto bare land. For this reason
there are fields where bare fallows are
never advisable. as, for illustration, a
field adjoining a road overrun with
weeds. The practice of leaving land
thus bare is very often the cause Of
the same land being subsequently
overrun with weeds, which can only
be ~extirpated by years of expensive
operations. The land owner frequent
~ lmagines that he has no interest in
th1stles, wild lettuce, and other weeds
tnat line the roadside adjoining his
premises. But he has a very decided
financial interest in them, for they
are the great store house from which
his farm is seeded. While he is asleep,
the winds are whipping the heads
OF the ripening weeds and car
ry1ng the seeds over his land to
ind a Judgment wherever there
is an unused spot of ground. 1t
Will pay to make war on such weeds
Tor the purpose of cutting off the sup
ply OF new seeds. If the weeds along
the roadside be moved a number of
times during the growing season they
VIII cease to reproduce themselves and
IN their stead grass will appear. This
VIII be taking possession of the
enemy's Entertainments.
We must prevent weed seeds from
gettlng into the manure, as this is one
OF the ways in which they are kept on
the farm. The screenings of the grain,
II full OF weed seeds should be dis
posed of in some way that will keep
them out of the manur pile, and when
the chaf is likewise full of weed seeds
II Will be found cheaper to burn it
than to use 1t for bedding, by which
meansit finds it's way into the manure
Under an ideal system of manure
handling this chaff would go into a
compost where the seeds would be
destroyed, but we have no such GER
ta1nty of their destruction 1t the
present time. Therefore we must do
the next best thing and prevent the
seeds from getting into the manure
AZ all.
Biennial and perennial weeds are,
OF course, more difficult to destroy
than are the ANNALS, and frequently
nave to be given special attention.
Flowing is the strongest measure that
can be used against them, but many
OF the larger weeds will have to be
dealt with individually. We have new
er seen the farm where hand work
did not have to be used to some extent
in getting rid Of weeds.

The rearing of ostriches in the VAL
ley of the Nile is likely to become an
important industry in the neal future.
An experimental farm, established
under French auspices, in the vicinity
of Heliopolis, has successfully demon
strated the suitability of the climate of
the Delta for this purpose, and during
the present a the number of birds
Of all ages has reached the respectable
total of 1,400. The runs are established
by means Of cheap rabble, and are
planned out concentrically round a
central watch-tower, which permits of
a survey of the whole farm being made
at a glance.

-Four Great Exportlng NatIons.

The United States now stands at the
head of the worlds exporting nations.
The complete figures for the calen-
dar year 1900 when compared with
those of other nations show that our
exports of domestic products are
greater than those of any other coun-
try. The total exports of domestic
merchandise from the United Staes
in the calendar year 1900 were $1,453,-
Ol3,659, those from the United King
dom, which has heretofore led in the
race for this distinction, were $1,418,-
o4S, 600, and those from Germany, ST.
$50, Gil 900.
Additional interest is given to the
first rank which the United States
now holds as an exporting nation by
the fact that a quarter Of a century
ago she stood fourth in that list. In
1875 the domestic exports of the
United States were $497, 263, 1877; those
of Germany, $607, 9 5000; those OF
France, STAT, 4S9, 900, and those of the
United Kingdom, $1s087, 497, 900. To-
day the United States stands at the
head of the list, the United Kingdom
second, Germany third, and France
fourth, with the figures as follows:
United States, $1,453, ola, 659; United
Kingdom, $1,418, 348, 900; Germany ST.
$50, GIL 900; France, $7S7. OOo, 900 All of
these figures, it should be remem-
bered, relate to the exports of domes-
tic products. Thus in the quarter
century, the United States has in
creased her exports from $497, 263, 1877
~ $1,453,0 13, 659, or 1872 per cent; Ger
many, from $6O7, O96, 900 to ST. 5O, 611,-
900, or 73 per cent; the United King
dom, from $1,OS7, ACT, 900 to $1,418, 348,-
900, or "a per cent, and France from
$747, ASS, 900 to $7S7, O6O, 900, or 5 per
cent.

AS the United States pays no civil
pensions neither ex-presidents nor
their widows receive allowances; but
Mrs. Grant and Mrs. Garfield are each
recipients Of $4,000 a year as the wild
ows of generals in the army. There
were surviving last year four widows
of soldiers who fought in the Revolu-
ton of 1776, the youngest of whom was
eighty-four. No doubt some widows
of civil war pensioners will live to be
centenarians. In that case the open
ing of the twenty-first century will
witness the pertinacious lady cheer
fully signing her voucher. Many
young women have married aged pen
sioners, that they may subsequently
receive life pensions as widows. By
actuarial calculation, it is "odds on
that more than one widow will be
drawing a Spanish-American war EN-
sion in the year 2050.

The private letter books of Robert
Morris, the inancier of the revolu-

Expensive Poison for Potato Bugs.

expensive POISON Tor Potato Bugs.
The Maine Experiment Station, in
bulletin 60, takes up the question of
poisons for potato beetles. 1t reports
SO adversely on bug DEATH" a patent
insecticide, that anyone reading the
bulletin will certainly not buy the
powder named. In part it says:
Whatever value the material has is
dependent upon the strong dislike
which the bugs show for it, rather
than to any insecticidal qualities
which it may have. The price as al
vertised ranges from Is cents for a
single pound to 8 cents in the largest
package which the company puts out.
At the rate applied in these expsri-
ments it would cose $500 per acre for
the material for each application. Two
applications a fortnight apart would
be needed to keep the potatoes free
from bugs. When applied to vines not
covering the ground an application at
the rate of 40 pounds per acre was
without effect, go it would seem that
the second application must be as great
as the first. To partly protect would
cost for the Bug Death $500 per acre.
while to thoroughly protect against
bugs would cost $1,000 for materials.
The Perfection Shaker is a covered
tin dish with small holes in the bot
tom. Applied with this shaker a man
would be kept very busy and might de-
velop a lame wrist in the attempt to
apply 100 pounds in one day. In
Aroostook county there are in the
neighborhood of $4,000 acres of pota-
toes on which the bugs must be killed
within a few days time. In the presi-
Dental election Of 1896 the county
polled 6,472 votes. 1t would take ten
days for these voters to protect the
potato plants from bugs applying Bug
Death with the Perfection shaker. A
farmer growing 20 t. so acres would
sary to apply Bug Death at the right
time.
One pound of Paris green, or other
arsenites applied at two different times
will do all the work of 200 pounds of
Bug Death. The Paris green can be
applied with power sprayer at the rate
of 20 to 80 acres a day, and a thorough
application of Bordeaux mixture can
be applied at the same time with only
the added cost Of materials (about 40
to As cents an acre.. Reckoning a
mans time at Is cents an hour it would
cost at least for materials and labor
$18 an acre to apply Bug Death twice,
For $3.50 an acre can be treated four
times with Bordeaux mixture and a re-
liable poison.

Early Rhubarb or pieplant.

Press Bulletin 50 of the Oklahoma
Experiment Station says: This vege-
table can be forced into an early
growth in the spring by covering the
plants in the open garden with bout
n foot of fresh in February
or March. The manure should cover
a space two or three feet square about
each plant. 1t is a good plan to place
some boards or old barrel slaves
around the plant to hold the manure
in place. If the boards are close to-
the manure they will do a great deal
to protect the young leaves from the
frost. After the n has been on
the ground for a few days a hole five
or six inches in diameter should be
dug over the plant in the manure to
aid the plant in starting through the
manure Most of the early growth is
made from the food stored in the roots
the previous summer. To secure the
best development of the plants and
roots, the plants should be set in rows
four feet apart and two feet apart in
the row and given clean, shallow Gull
tivation throughout the summer. Three
or four inches of well-rotted manure
should be we'll worked into the soil
around the plant in the spring. Plants
receiving good cultivation will last
five or seven years without renewing.
Forcing the plants may have a ten
dency to weaken them and shorten
the life of the plantation.
Another method of forcing the plants
is to lift the plants, with a large ball
of the surrounding soil, from the gar
den and place in a cellar or slow hot
bed. Keep the roots well bedded in
soil and moist. Light is not neces-
sary for their growth. This method
is quite satisfactory as it can be car
ried out any time during the winter.
The plants will produce edible stems
within four weeks after they are
placed in their warmer location. The
plants will DO best if the ground has
been frozen once or twice before
plants are lifted from the garden.

Morocco has taken a first step toward
civilization. The Sultan has ordered
a set of Highland bagpipes from a
Glasgow firm. They are probably the
most costly ever made in Scotland. as
the mountings are in 18-carat gold
and the price is 81, 1000. One of the
chief officers at the Sultan's court is a
Maclean-a nephew of the Highland
chief of Lochbine in Null, who insists
on spelling his name MacLaine.
