Manurinq the Soil.

Director John Fields of the Okla
homa Experiment Station thus sum-
marizes the points to be observed in
the manuring of soil: First, to ma
nure the soil. Use all of the manure
produced, prevent losses by washing
away, quit burning straw, haul ma
nure onto the fielus somewhere, some
time, somehow.
Second, manure the highest and
poorest spots, give good application
at one time--from fifteen to twenty
two-herse loads-and manure another
place next time.
Third, manure with reference to the
rainfall, to the next crop which is to
be grown, and to the other work which
must be done. Late fall and winter,
when other work is not pressing, is
good time. Light top-dressings may
be applied to wheat in the fall.
Fourth. growing crops for green ma
nuring alone is not the most profitable
method. Pasture them and pillow un-
der the remainder when about ma
ture. This applies chiefly to cow
peas. If sorghum is to be plowed
under, it should be while the stalks
are green and juicy SO that they will
decay quickly.

Another Lincoln Story.

The story is told that Lincoln was
one day walking through a field when
he suddenly saw that he was pursued
by a mad bull.
The nearest object of escape was an
old strawstack, and Lincoln made for
it with lightning speed. Reaching it
before the bull caught up to him, he
commencing running around it, with
the bull in mad pursuit.
After several revolutions Lincoln
discovered that his long legs had COW
cred the ground faster than he had
hoped, and bright idea occurred to
him. A few more strides brought him
within reach of the bulls tail, which
he clutched and the two went flying
around faster than before.
It soon began to dawn upon his bull
ship that he was the one pursued, and
he began to below with fear and dis.

"see here, darn you, you began this

within a couple Of minutes after II
was released. On another evening !
let out a half dozen moths about fifty
feet from light and failed to catch
any. These experiments prove to my
mind quite definitely that Cooling
Moths are only attracted to light al
distance of ten to twenty feet, that
then attracted to it only when sud
denly released and unused to the
light, as those which I note flew to
the light at once were not subsequenr
ly attracted to it. Therefore, I am
decidedly of the opinion that such
trap lights would fail to catch any
considerable number of Cooling Moths
unless placed so close together in an
orchard as to make it entirely too ex
pensive. am more convinced of the
futility of the use of these lights by
spraying experiments conducted by
me this season in which 80 per cent
of the whole seasons crop, and SO
per cent of the picked fruit was per
feet fruit. Surely trap lights can moi
give such results.

Told Of Deaf Irish Dean,

A dean whose name may not be
given is nearly stone deaf, says Tenn.
pie Bar. His deafness is said to lead
to malapropos answers. Staying at q
friends house, he was asked If he
would like to have pair of slippers.
His face assumed an expression Of
portentous solemnity, and he made
reply: THAT question must be re-
served for the general synod" On
another occasion he was asked what
family he had. "Twenty-six, and an
immediate prospect of a considerable
increase" He thought he had been
asked as to the number of children at
his school. Just one more story Of
my deaf dean. He is reported to be
famous for changing horses, and not
to be particularly lucky in horsefesh.
Some one asked him how Mrs. -
was. The reply was peculiar: "She
is vicious in the extreme; she won't
stand the curb, and is strongly in
clined to run away" Needless to say,
he was not referring to the good gray
mare, who, no doubt, was going very
steadily in double harness.

Pecan Tree Frauds.

We do not know that any reader oil
the Farmers Review is interested in
the planting of Pecan trees, but as
sumo that some may be. It seems
that there are just as great frauds
being perpetrated in the sale of these
trees as in the sale of other trees. A
Louisiana grower sends out a warn
ing letter saying that there are many
agents that are selling all kinds Of
things for pecan trees, taking advan
tage of the popular interest in this
kind of fruit. He says that one claim
OF these peddlers is that they have g
certain fertilizer that will so stimu
late the growth of the trees that II
will COME into bearing at four years
of age and bear barrels of fruit al
eight years. Mr.. James, the grower
referred TO, says that pecan trees
come into bearing at eight or nine
years of age, and are never profitable
before 13 years Of age. Wild pecan
trees of no particular value have also
been extensively sold to unsuspectine
buyers. Great is the disappointment
of the growers when, after years OF
labor, they find their trees bearing
nuts of no particular value. The fol
lowing advice by Mr.. James is good

groves should write to the directors

Amusing Incident Told BY Louisville
u courler-Journal. s9si
\ Sunday when the excursion train
from Paris filled with negroes bound
for the camp meeting, reached this
city, says the Louisville Courier.
Journal, 1t passed the station and
went through Cynthiana at the rate Of
about twenty-five miles an hour, the
idea being to keep the crowd on board
until the arrival at the grounds at the
Falmouth pike crossing. Just before
reaching Pike street q negro man
jumped from the train. OF course,
the momentum Of the cars carried
him along at terrific, pace. His
body was going so fast that his legs
could not possibly keep up, but they
made q valiant effort to do so, and
such a lickity-split negro never cut
before. He galloped across the gut.
ter at Pike street at tremendous
speed, barely missed telephone pole,
few up, into the air, turned couple
of somersaults, and landed all in q
heap in the middle of the street. His
eyes were as big as saucers and seem
ed to pop out. AS he slowly gathered
himself together his trousers were
split, his knees were bruised and
bleeding, his arms were wrenched, his
coat-tails were in tatters, and his
battered stiff hat was mashed down
tight over his ears.
At that moment negro girl who
knew him came along.

Harvestino Cow Peas.

A bulletin Of the Missouri station
says: Cow peas are harvested just
as any other hay crop, being cut with
an ordinary mower and cured and
handled very much as you do clover.
The vines are coarser than the clover
plants and therefore somewhat more
difficult to cure, but they have the ad-
vantage of resisting the injury from
rains to a surprising degree. In this
respect they are quite like sorghum
and appear to stand quite rs much
rain. It is usually considered best to
commence cutting when the first pods
begin to turn yellow on those varieties
which seed here. or when the lower
leaves of such a variety as the Clay
begin to drop off. But in actual prac-
tice it is well to select as far as one
can, dry time, at the season of the
year that you have leisure to handle
them. Cut regardless of the stage of
maturity, although they cure easier
and make better hay when fairly ma
ture. Allow them to cure as much
as possible in the swath, and every
clover and pea grower ought to own
a hay tedder, turn them with a tedder
If possible while the dew is on so as
to prevent the loss of the leaves and
either stack them or put them in the
barn direct from the swath or put
them in rather large shocks to COM
plete the curing process, from which
they may be stacked. Like clover it
is necessary to cover the stacks with
timothy or some such material to turn
the water. The hay is fed in the
same manner as other hay and is very
valuable feed for all classes of stock.
the water. The hay is fed in the
leaves and finer stems in winter.
Many breeders of fine horses, particu-
larly of running horses, prize the hay
very highly for their brood mares and
weanlings. 1t is fine feed for dairy
cows and ewes that are nursing
lambs.

The HilIsides.

Where hillsides on farms are not
treated in natural or scientific man
ner they soon become either barren
or quilted. frequently declivities
that were fertile for centuries become
useless and practically untillable. In
state Of nature forests cover the
hills, and under these forests under
brush developes to point where
erosion is not possible. The roots Of
the trees form binders that no soil
water can displace. The soil is not
permitted to dry out but retains its
porosity. In that condition the rain
that falls enters it by way of the
trunks and roots of trees and it thence
soaks away through the soil without
disturbing the position of the particles
OF soil. In many cases, however, the
trees on these hillsides have been cut
away and the land used, for plowed
fields or for pastures. Where the
grass has been kept in good state by
an abundance of fertility, the damage
has not been great. Where the land
has been plowed the soil has been
~->SOSSN
often has the heart of the farmer been
made sad as he has inspected such
fields after heavy downpour of rain!
The remedy is to use this land for
something else than tillable crops.
Some farmers are turning such fields
into forests. Where a man does not
want to wait for forest to grow up
he can plant an orchard, but such an
orchard will have to be kept in sod to
keep the soil from washing. Probably
this is as good use as any to which
1T can be put. Putting into grass is
a good plan and one that will COM
mend itself to most farmers. But
such fields must not be pastured as
that will weaken the sod and make
outlying possible. The sod should be
encouraged to thicken. To help this
fertilize the hilltops and hillsides and
do not take more than one crop of
grass year. Do cot NOW the second
growth but leave it to strengthen the
roots.
