He Was Thrown from a Mule In q
Potato Race.

Frank Warman. who has been a par
ticipant in the potato races at the horse
show, was thrown from mule night before
last and his injuries were regarded as
serious last night. Mr.. Warman had tried
to induce Chairman Ray Van Camp. of
the horse show committee. to enter the
race Thursday night but Mr.. Van Camps
friends told him Warman was going to
plany trick on him and he did not enter.
When Warman was thrown from the mule,
which he was riding merely a prank, ii
was not supposed he was injured to any
serious extent and Van Camp thought the
joke had been turned on Warman. Yester-
day and last night Warman was missed,
as he has been the moving spirit in the
conical potato races. There is much re-
greet that the accident will confine him for
several days In falling he struck his face
and bled profusely from his mouth and
nose, and this flow was not checked for
several hours

SUCCESS IN FARMING.
Il Depends sn the Way the Business
II Conducted asa How Small
Thlngs Are Done.

Success in farming depends on the
way the business is conducted, and
on how well the small things arc
done. One of the principal causes OF
failure in farming is going on in .
haphazard kind of way, paying no at
tention to the small things and keep
ing no accounts of the outgo or in
come. The few shingles that are OF
the barn don't interfere any, only
when it rains, and rainy days are the
only times they have to do these odd
jobs, being SO busy other times with
big jobs. There may be weak place
in the barn floor and some day an
animal will step through. It's only
a short piece Of work to repair it
and will be attended to some day.
but that day never comes.
If one is to make success at farm
ing he must pay strict attention to
all these odd jobs. He cannot be an
agent for everything ! that comes
along, go with threshing machine
all the fall, or draw all the milk to
the creamery for his neighbors. It
practicable for best results, he must
have his blowing done in the fall for
spring crops; never keep two hired
men when only one is needed. A
great many farmers keep one hired
man the year round, when his serv-
ices five or six months would be all
that is necessary. The manner IN
which the implements are used on
some farms bring great loss to-
the owner. They should be care
fully sheltered at all times when not
in use, and given q coat OF paint
when required. Keep posted oh the
markets of the future and sell ac-s
cordingly. ......... 49,. ''-'l''-. !
In growing crops aim to raise what
the markets demand. All markets
are not alike and a close observation
of the demands of the customer, as
well as the seasons when certain
kinds Of farm produce is preferred
will give the farmer an advantage
which will enable him to secure bet
ter prices. Remember, it is the buyer
who is to be satisfied. It in market
ing poultry the consumer prefers
fowls with yellow legs, it is to the
producers interest to grow such. Tho
best breed for his purpose is that
which he. finds will give the buyer
the greatest satisfaction, and what
is true of poultry also is true of a
great many other products of the
farm. ". N. Couch, in Farmers
Voice.

Irrlsation by Pumpfnx.

In our western country and even in
some localities in the central west,
considerable irrigation has been done
by means of pumps. Some declare
that irrigation by means of pumps
can never, amount to much. But we
know that this practice is as old as
civilization, and this mode of irriga-
!. .tiCn has been employed in some parts
Of the world successfully for centu-
ries. There are many places in our
western states where from five to Is
acres Of, land are irrigated by pumps
driven by windmills. Doubtless the
future will see the further utilization
of the pump, whether driven by wind
or by other force.-Farmers'. Review.

PERTINENT FARM NOTES.

Over 50 different commercial pro-
ducts are manufactured from corn.
The United States raises four-ffths
of the worlds corn, over 1000, 000, 600
bushels annually.
There is a wide divergence of opin-
ion as to the outcome of the United
States rice crop for 1902. Estimates
of yield range from 100000 tod ,000,-
600 sacks.
Where a locality becomes addicted
to the habit of growing one crop year
after year, the average soil deterio-
rates unless fertilizers are applied, if
the crop is sold from the farm.
A we'll arranged system of rotation
contributes greatly to maintaining
the uniform fertility of the soil, and
is also one of the readiest means by
which to get rid of insect pests.
Illinois, for the last IS years, has
averaged over quarter of a billion
bushels of corn annually. An increase
of one bushel of corn to the acre
means to Illinois farmers 81 COO, 900.
The results of cooperative fertiliz-
er tests on meadows conducted in
England in 1900, showed that the most
profitable proportions Of commercial
fertilizers were $50 pounds of nitrate
of soda, 200 pounds of super phosphate
and 800 pounds Of KANT per acre.
