Professor Roberts of the Cornell ex-
pertinent station gives direction for
forming a permanent pasture, which
we condense, says American Agricul-
turist. Pillow now and SOW with buck
wheat, to be plowed under when in
bloom. If part of the land is moist,
sow it with four quarts of rape seed
per acre, which may be fed down by
sheep, but if fed or not turn rape stub
BILE under at same time as buckwheat.
If cost is not too great, SOW from 10 to
20 bushels fresh Stacked lime per acre
and then harrow it In. After this or
when seed is sown use from 100 to 200
pounds per acre of a mixture made
from 1000 pounds acid phosphate, 800
pounds dried blood, 200 pounds nitrate
of soda. 800 pounds muriate of potash.
For reseeding be advises the following
mixtures per acre, sown about Sept 1;
Red clover seed, 6 pounds; alsike clo-
yer, pounds: Kentucky blue grass
orchard grass. meadow fescue and
red top, 31a pounds of each; tim
othy, pounds. This is very
good mixture, but for New England we
should put four pounds of white clover
In place of the alsike or add it to the
mixture and If the pasture was for
dairy purposes would add four pounds
sweet vernal grass and two pounds tall
oat grass per acre to insure good early
pasturage. The little extra cost would
be quickly repaid.
Selecting Pasture Land.
Many pastures are not well selected
as to character of soil and location and
hence are of little aid in proftably
maintaining a dairy herd. The best
grass land should be chosen-that is.
land fertile and capable of retaining
moisture, as occurs where there is a
clay subsoil. Once established. good.
reliable pasture is the cheapest and
hence the most profitable means of
maintaining a summer dairy.
The Oxeye Daisy.
The daisy is most troublesome In pas
ture and sod land. but is not much seen
In well cultivated fields; consequently
when any seeding down is done it
should be to clover and again plowed
up after the one crop is cut and taken
of, which should be before any daisy
seed has matured.

currant cu1ture.

Currants are rather gross feeders and
hence win do well on deep, rich soils,
preferably clay loans. They delight
In moist. cool situations on well drain
ed land. Mulching is practiced by
some growers on sandy soils in order to
keep the roots moist and cool. Cur
rants delight in partially shaded situa-
tons and are therefore well adapted
for setting in orchards of the larger
fruits,

that if he does not thus get the birds
some town dude will bag every last one
of them just as soon as the open sea-

WIND BREAKS.

There Is no one thing of more impor-
lance to the man who locates on a
prairie farm than the securing of
good, substantial wind break at the
earliest opportunity. Wind is all right
In it's place, filling the sails of ship,
whirling the windmill and drying up
the mud, but to have it working its
own sweet way in barnyard and round
the farm home day In and day out 1t
Is an unmitigated nuisance. Such
wind break can be most quickly OBJ
tanned by deep Notwithstanding
would be still bctter-of an L shaped
tract of land bounding the north and
west sides of the homestead, contain
ing about three acres and located far
enough from all yards and buildings
so as to leave ample room for the
home grounds, the barns, sheds, gar
den and orchard; this land so pre-
pared to be set out to the soft wood
types of native trees-soft maple, cot
tonwood, box elder and willow-about
10 feet apart each way and to be well
cultivated for three years at least. A
five year growth of such trees so cared
for will givea very effective wind break.
A row or two of Scotch pine planted
inside such wind break and not less
than 80 feet from it will make it still
better A common mistake in plant
ing such grove is to set the trees too
thick, and the result is that as the
trees grow they crowd each other, and
many Of them die out, leaving the
grove irregular and patchy. The soft
maple will bear planting more thickly
than any of the varieties named.

1t is not SO much the amount Of rain
which may fall in an agricultural dis,
trict as it is to have it fall at the rignt
season of the year. 1t is probably true
that as small an amount of rain as ten
inches per annum, If distributed just
right during the growing season, would
suffice for all needs of plant life and
insure a perfect development of all
cereal crops, though this condition
would be almost fatal to tree growth.

BUYING LAND WITHOUT SEEING 1T

The Bible refers to a certain man
who bought a piece of land without
seeing it. and, while the record does not
state whether he got beat or not, the
chances are that he did. This prompts
the remark that about the most foolish
thing a man can do is to buy land
without seeing it, and lots of men are
doing this thing every day now in their
eager craze to get hold of land. We
would not invest a dollar in any land
until we had tested the soil and the
subsoil to depth of at least three
feet, till we had ascertained the aver
age rainfall for series of years In
the locality where the land was stu
ated, until we had ascertained the quail
ity and quantity of water accessible by
digging or boring, until we knew what
sort Of crops. the climate and soil would
produce and the class of people that
were to become permanent neighbors.

TROLLEY ROADS ron THE cuUN:
thy


We do not go much on prophesying,1
but we like to think that we see int the,
near future vast extension Of the
country trolley road system into ALL
localities removed so far as ten miles
from steam railway. The east Is be-
ing gridironed with these roads, and
they are being operated at handsome
profit to the owners and to the un-,s
told benefit of the communities which
they serve. The trolley comes the near
est to being everybody's road of any
thing yet evolved in the way Of trans
portation. While it is operated on a
time schedule, it stops anywhere and
accommodates everybody along its
route The conductor becomes a pur-
chasing agent for his patrons and fills
their orders and delivers the goods with
as much promptness as though the pur-
chasers lived In town. Built of stand
ard gauge track, the freight car picks
up the heavier and bulkier farm prod
ucts, such as stock, grain, ETC., and de-
Iiyers them to the steam road at the
city. In a word, the country trolley
line, cheaply built and operated, af-
fords every convenience offered by the
steam road, with the added advantage
that it is infinitely more adaptable to
the wants and needs of the community.
Wherever capitalists are willing to put
their money into such roads the farm
ers of the community should extend to
the road their most hearty and loyal
support Tie trolley, the telephone and
the rural mail route are the three agen-
cies which are destined to regenerate
country life and country business.

News and Notes.

The pin oak has come to be very
popular with tree planters of late. It's
deep orange red is very striking in
autumn.
An interesting feature at the Pan
American exposition is the show of
tropical fruit, pinqapples growing both
in the open ground and under sheds,
focoanut trees and other tropical fruits,
tuch as guayas, sapodilas. etc.
A melon patch to be worthy of the
tame should be large enough to fur
nish all the melons the family and the
hired men can eat and leave plenty to
give to the neighbors' boys.
The PanAmerican exhibition of
flowers is pronounced exceedingly fine
by excellent authorities. Roses have
been a dream of delight; pansies,
rhododendrons and azalias great fea-
lures. and other blooms in succession
will sustain the remarkable show.
A waterproof paper strawberry box
is noted by an exchange as one Of the
new things this year. 1t is cheap and
looks neat when filed with straw

The compass cherry Is popular In
Minnesota for jelly making. The state

RUSSIA CAN'T SEE IT.
Secretary Cages Explanation of Tariff Law
Beside the Point.
(By the discounted Press.l

10y the ASSOCldleu ITESS.J
st. Petersburg, June 24.-On competent
authority the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press is able to say that the Rus
sian Minister of Finance regards Secre-
tary Cages explanation of the petroleum
question to be beside the point.
Russia has adopted reprisals in the
form of increased duties on American
goods for the SECOND time not because
a certain shipment of petroleum was
taxed at an unduly high rate because it
was not accompanied with a certificate
as to is origin but because Russia does
not admit the correctness of Secretary
Cages Interpretation of the tariff laws
of the United States. Section GIG of these
laws places naptha and the products of
naptha on the free list unless the cour-
try whence they are exported charges
duty on similar articles. Russia does not
admit that these laws authorize the COL
lection of tariff on paraffine made in
Great Britain from Russian naptha,
as described by Secretary Gage in his
circular of March.
The impression has been conveyed to
the correspondent of the Associated Press
that the hope of Secretary Gage that
Secretary Hay will succeed in explaining
these matters to the satisfaction of NJ.
De Witte will be vain. If further action
against Russian trade is taken by the
United States Russia's answer will fol-
low in due season.
