JUIOIO SUMARfSIMO CONTRA Ell
JEFB DEL CONFLICT

Manure aa a Farm Crop.

Manure should be considered as one
of the crops, and its quality should be
maintained more than the quantity,
as bulk may add nothing to Its value.
In many respects the manure crop is
the most important of all, for the rea-
son that to q considerable extent the
Yields of the other crops are more or
less dependent upon the manure, so
that in securing a large quantity Of
manure the farmer is thereby aiding
very materially in increasing the yields
Of the others. Profitable farming
must be on q foundation, and the best
foundation is manure, for it not only
influences the yield but the quality OF
the products of the farm. AS the bet
ter quality of products enhances the
price, the aim should always be to eI-
eel in quality. The fault with many
who accumulate large manure heap
Is that they rely too much on the
quantity. The more concentrated the
plant food the lower the cost OF
spreading in proportion to the benefit
derived hence quality should be
maintained by not allowing of loss
from rains or by 0verheating of the
heap.

Yhrkeys az Insect Destroyers.

Mrs. F. M. Smith, in Farmers Voice:
"We read in the papers of the quail
as an insect destroyer, but no one
notes the value Of the turkey in that
capacity. 1t would be profitable 70
most farmers in these days Of myriads
of insect pests to inclose their farms
with good wire fence, SO that they
could keep the turkeys at home, and
then breed flock a year, the size Of
which should correspond to the size
of the farms. On a farm of eighty
acres q flock Of forty or fifty can be
raised with very little expense until
the insects are gone in the fall. From
that time on feed all the corn they will
eat nntii selling time, and the clear
profit will be double that on each
pound of hog flesh sold.
1--WE let our turkey hens raise the
little ones, as she knows their needs
and nature better than chicken hen
does. The turkey hen takes them off
to the fields, where they convert
worms, crickets, grasshoppers, ETC.,
into flesh, which sells for cash at the
farmers door,"

corbonic Acid Gas as q Fertilizer.

It is an axiom Of vegetable physi'
ology that carbonic acid gas is taken
up by the plant largely through the
leaves and, when assimilated, fur
nishes the larger part of the dry
weight of the crops. That Is, the
carbon in the plant tissues comes from
the carbonic acid of the air. Now II
the amount Of carbonic acid gas IN the
atmosphere Of forcing houses be arti'
ficially increased, will not the crops
forced under such conditions grow
larger and faster? We find upon in
ouiry that this question must be
answered In the affirmative. PROVIDED
a cheap method Of generating car
bonic acid gas were available, this
method Of atmospheric fertilization
may yet excel the electric light as a
means of forcing quick growth ID
green houses.
On this subject, DR.. H. W. Wiley,
chief Of the United States diVlsion
of chemistry, writes: II will not De
able to cite all the experiments which
have been made for the artificial feed
ing of carbon-dioxide to plants, but
will content myself with the latest
experimental data. The experiments
to which refer were e'made In the
biological vegetable laboratory at
Fontainebleau. These experiments
were conducted with two series OF
plants. In one series the plants, pro-
tected by bell-jars, were deprived or
every trace Of carbon-dioxide In the
air In the other, they were supplied
with an air having an excess over the
normal Of carbon-dioxide. The plants
experimented upon were white lupines
and beans.
1.-THE experiments were continued
for about q month and at the end OF
this time the plants which had re-
ceived the excess of carbon-dioxide
were very much larger than the others.
The internodes were very much
further apart and the length OF the
stem was very much greater. The
leaves Of these plants were very mucn
larger and thicker, and in general the
appearance Of the plants fed the ex-
cess of carbon-doxide was very su-
perior to those which had been de-
prived of this substance. These ex-
periments, you will see, in sorder to
have been entirely conclusive, should
have been conducted with plants
grown in ordinary air also.
1T is not likely that any practical
advantage would come to agriculture
by attempting to feed plants larger
amount Of carbon-doXide than nature
supplies them. In forcing houses,
however, where particular effects are
to be produced, the introduction of N
excess of carbon.dioxide over the
normal might prove benehclal.'

"Oh, if the original girl doesn't mind,

Certainly, that's necessary" al

Farm md Garden Notes

Milk will make pig grow and corn
will fatten it.
Do not use the milk Of cows too
soon after calving.
There is no profit in raising a crop
Of lice on your animals.
Dried blood and meat will make
your hens lay more eggs.
Bran and oatmeal with clover al
ways makes q good ration.
Your grass crop needs manure just
as much as any other crop.
Don't forget that the pigs absolutely
require at least some green food.
Less soil and more culture" is the
motto that farmers ought to adopt.
Soils that are unfit for cultivation
can be used 10 advantage for poultry.
Try to have your animals adapted to

The hog that stands fair and square
upon his feet should always be chosen
for a breeder.
If YOU don't want competition to
hurt you, produce an article that is
above the average.
A dozen sheep kept on an ordinary
sized farm should cost the owner next
to nothing for food.
Farmers who q few years ago
abandoned sheep are again taxing
them back Oh their farms.
The value Of manure depends en-
what it is made from. Not every
farmer appears to realize this.

Blossomless Christians.

II wish you would look at this climb

gardener to his friend, the florist. 1T il
a fine Gloire de Dion, grated on !

rose, which ought to give it goot
growth. But it grows very slowly, ant

what is the matter" said the florist; and
he went down on his knees, and begal
to remove the earth from around .tht
root. Sure enough, just below the sur.
face, hidden safely from view, the roo,
had sent out long, straight shoot
which found it's way to the sun severa
feet away, and was already opening s
few leaves. The florist took out hh
knife and cut it off close to the root
Now your Gloire de Dion will grow
and bloom" he said. "Or II it doesn't

Life oetbe Hog Cholera Germ.

How long will the germ of hog
cholera live? This is question that
is troubling a good many people, for
on it's answer hinges not only the
safety of herds that are yet to be, per-
haps year hence, but the places Of
herds now affected by hog cholera.
The Farmers Review answers the
question by saying that it is the be-
lief of some Of the best breeders that
the germs remain vigorous for at
least two years after the pens once
infected have been emptied. Gases
are reported where fresh hogs have
been brought into styes that had been
empty nearly two years and where
the hogs came down with cholera
within q few days Of entrance.

diligently worked into every crack and
hole. This, Of course, killed all tnat
1t touched, but the remainder made
almost as great nuisance as oefore.
Another step in the way OF improve
ment We made by sprinkling q little
insect powder among the hay OF the
nests. This helped to kill the Dody
lice, so that when / plucked the deao
fowls l found them comparatively
free of them. About five years ago l
introduced into their scratching boxes
a mixture of half sifted coal and un-
leached wood ashes. The result was
so strikingly beneficial in ALMOST or
quite exterminating all vermin, that
1 made trial of pure unleached hard
wood ashes.
For the past four years have used
this in their scratching box and have
not found q louse of any kind. l
have had tests of it's efficiency under
exceptional conditions. A tenant at
my summer home, on my seed farm
divides with me poultry house, his
half being separated from mine by
q partition made Of thick roofing
paper, not so tight but that vermin
might readily find their way from
his section into mine. While I have
used wood ashes in the scratch box
as a preventive, he has taken the usual
precautions of whitewashing his coop
and at times burning sulphur there
with closed doors, with the result that
while have no vermin in my half
he has always more or less in his, and
at times has q great deal Of trouble
from them.-J. ]. H. Gregory, Massa.
