FALL FLOWING.

When ground has to be plowed
either in the fall or spring, the soil is
most favored by its being done in the
fall Of the year. Whatever is on the
surface in the fall can then be turned
under and put to fertiIizing uses.
If this work is deferred until the
spring much at least of the fertilizing.
material on the surface in the fall
will have become decomposed ere the
spring arrives, and part at least will
get lost by escaping into the air.
Then. too, fall blowing, if done in
the right manner in sections where
frost counts for anything, will be sub
jected to changes looking to fertilizing
not likely to be reached if left in the
condition it was in at the close of the
growing season. Fall blowing favors
the best sort of disintegrating inf1u-
ences, whether brought to bear by
frost or otherwise during the winter.
PloW to the full depth of the good
soil, turning the ground over so as to
leave 1T on the edge as much as pos
slble. And now is the time of all times
Tor associating with this sort of blow
ing the subsoil plow
Rough manure applied at the time
of this fall blowing and so turned nm
der should be just right for the crop
nutrition of the next year by the time
spring arrives and planting begins
certainly by the time the roots reach
down to the depth below the surface
to which the manure gets turned un-
der by this treatment.

THE MULE.

The mule ends with the mule-it has
no self-perpetuating value, as the horse
has. But the mule has qualities that
make it of greatest value for certain
purposes. 1t is regarded as particular
ly in harmony with the main labor ele-
ment on the plantations of the South.
Some, at least, of those who have
thoroughly studied the mule hold that
the name which it has for unruly heels
and a treacherous disposition original
ed with those owning or driving it.
1.-The mule is not" say people of this
class, naturally more vicious or dis
posed to kick than is the horse. Its
bad qualities are very often systemat-
ically developed by persistent abuse"
Often it endureS without a kick treat
ment that would make horse of any
spirit frantic. And it is to it's credit,
as it seems to us, that it does not al
ways forget.
The good qualities of the mule are
not, in any of the statements current
about it, made part of the view. It
is not pretty, and so it has been &C
cepted as one Of the chief reliances of
the poorest of the jokers.
But "a mule can be reared with less
care and less food than can horse. It
is rarely, if ever, sick; it eats less than
does horse, and on a farm it will do
more work than will horse" And sit
is always ready for work"

SMALL FRUITS ON THE FARM.

Page upon page has been written
about growing small fruits on the farm
where the aim is home consumption
rather than for the market and yet
there are thousands of farms where
nothing of the kind has been planted
out. There is benefit in small fruits
not to be found in any other kind. The
main benefit is reaped in the simple
method employed and the ease with
Which small fruits can be grown and
the next is that they come into bearing
so soon after being set out that there is
not that long period of waiting found in
the apple and other fruits.
Spring is the time to set out small
fruits of all kinds, but occasionally
there is season that fall planting will
answer fairly well. Now will be a good
time to glance around and select a good
place for setting out small fruits next
spring. OF blackberries, raspberries
currants and strawberries we have
many varieties and those that are
hardy, and small plant can be made
to contribute great deal to the COM
fort of the home on the farm. After the
ground is selected for the small fruit
plat it should be MANFRED with we'll
routed stable manured and ploWed this
fall to a good depth, which is deter
mined by the kind of soil of which the
plat is composed. For the most part in
pFalfle states 1t Will do to plOW about
six or eight inches deep. BY preparing
the ground this fall spring planting can
be attended to as early in the spring as
the ground will work and long before
one can plow. Let this matter be at
tended to at once and no longer depend
on buying what is needed on the table
Buying small fruit is all right, but so
much less is consumed.
Some fruit growers do not class
plums and cherries with small fruits,
but they may well be said to belong to
this class. Plum and cherry trees are
easily transplanted and they come into
bearing much quicker than apples and
pears. Plant a few cherry trees each
spring and there will always be trees in
bearing and as the old ones die and
drop out of the way there will still be
young and vigorous trees for bearing.
We can not recall the year when cher
r1es glutted the market. There is all
ways good sale for cherries. The
supply is never up to the demand.
Plums and other fruits will almost al
ways sell at very satisfactory prices.
Even if they do not sell at all it will
pay to grow them for the home table.
Let this be the starting point for a
small fruit plat

They toss the new hay in the meadow,

In the soft-tinted October light,
They know where the apples hang ripest
And are sweeter than Italy's wines;
They know where the fruit hangs the
thickest
On the long thorny, blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate seaweeds
And build tiny castles of sand;
They pick up the beautiful SeaShellS,
Fairy banks that have drifted to land.
They wave from the tall, rocking tree
tops,
Where the orioles hammock nest
swings.
And at night time are folded in SUM

WEEDS.

1t is impossible to account for such
a tremendous growth of weeds as ev-
cry man has had to fight this season
save on the theory that vast amount
of weed seed remains in the ground
one year to another without germinat-
ing, to later spring UP when soil and
weather conditions are specially favor
able to plague the tiller of the soil.
With us, land which was kept abso-
Iutely free from weeds of any kind last
year, not one being allowed to go to
seed, is for aught we can see just ex-
actly as badly pestered with a weed
growth this year as though a full crop
of weeds had been allowed to go to
seed on the ground last year. 1t is a
conundrum why some people will spend
so much time keeping weeds out of
their corn and other crops and then
let them grow in the fence rows and in
pastures. Who knows why?

ALFALFA

A grower of alfalfa who has been in
the business for twenty years sums up
the merits of this plant as follows: First,
its feeding value in the form of hay is
nearly equal to corn, pound for pound:
second, its yield per acre is much larger
than any other tame grass; third, it
combines excellent pasturage with lis
value as hay; fourth, it is one of the
best possible fertilizers of the soil:
fifth, once established in the soil It viii
last indefinitely; sixth, q ton Of well
cured alfalfa hay contains almost as
much portein as ton of wheat bran.
and is worth for feeding almost as
mach. These facts ought to set men to

FROM THE FAR NORTH
THEY COME TO THIS LAND
Scandinavlans Like This Country and Are
Comind In Laroe Numbers.


NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-The arrivals in
the United States of people from the
Scandinavian countries show a large an
nual increase. According to official fig
ures the nmbers of these thrifty and in
relligent natives of the far North who ar
rived here during the first six months of
the present year are as follows, Sweden,
1890; Norway, 1920; Finland, 1O,4S5;
corresponding period Of 1901 the figures
for the four countries named were &c, 1886,
an increase for 1902 of over so per cent.
Though large the figures are not sur
prising. AS long ago as last spring it
was predicted that Norway would lose
30,0 900 of her sons and daughters, and
should the ratio Of the first half Of the
year be maintained during the second half
the prediction will be quite verified and
the highest record for emigration from
Norway will be established.
The explanation is not difficult. The in
dustrial conditions of Norway are dis
tinctly favorable to the laboring classes,
and when agents, like Congressman Eddy,
for instance appeared in the larger cities
with alluring offers of high wages, it was
quite natural that sturdy Norsmen should
be tempted to a country where so many
thousands of their brethren had found
prosperity and independence. In Sweden
the conditions appear to be somewhat
better for while the emigration figures
are somewhat larger, the percentage is
much smaller, for Sweden has popula-
ton more than twice as large as Nor
ways. The numbers are large enough,
however, to fill many of the leading men
with apprehension.

THE SILO.

There is a marked revival of interest
in the silo question all over the coun-
try. The silo as it may now be built
is about as cheap a protective cover
for forage as anything which can be
put up and is entirely available for
even the small farmer with limited
means. Added to this is the fact it
affords a means of securing a supply
of most palatable and nutritious winter
food for stock from a small area of
land, and we often wonder why more
men do not use 1t.
