p,ow Tn the Idle Land.

Land that will lie idle during the
winter should be plowed up rough
and deep so that frost will cause 1t
to pulverize when the time ONE to
prepar it for planting. The fall n
early winter is a favorable season for
this work for several reasons. There
is more time for it, it being a slack
time in farm work. On many farms
there is a large amount of this Work
TO be done, and to do it now or a
month later saves a lot of york when
the rushing spring time comes. loo
many farmers can't plant their crops
at the best time and in the best man
ner, because they are not ready. have
not their land prepared. Fall plowed
land can be made ready at once. Frost
has been called the poor mans ma
nure, and a good freeze is equal to
quite a good coating of real manure,
1t especially benefits heavy, tenacious
soils by causing them to fall to a fine
powder under the teeth of the har-
row. and this makes a fine foraging
ground for the coming crops when
planting time comes.-Farm and

Rice Farming. .

A great development has taken
place in growing rice in the last three
years. This has been brought about
by the discovery that enough water to
food a given area could be pumped by
steam cheaper than the same area
could be cultivated. There is a large
amount of rich and level land lying
along the bayous and small lakes of
the southern coastland of Louisiana
that is now being flooded by this
method, and is producing from TWEEN
ty-five to fifty bushels of rice to the
acre. The total production has about
doubled every year for the past three
years. 1t is the only grain on which
there is a tariff, and at the present
rate of increase in the production it
will not need a tariff long. as the
home supply will exceed the demand.

THE TEST OF TIME.

Mrs. Clara j. Sherbourne, Profess
sional Nurse of 2S7 Cumberland ST.,
Portland, Maine, SAYS
II heartily wish those who suffer
from some disturbed action of the
kidneys would try Doan's Kidney
Pills. They would. like me, be more
than surprised. My back annoyed
me for years. Physicians who dag
nosed my case said it arose from
my kidneys. When the grip was cpl
demic, l was worn out with constant
nursing, and when l contracted ~
myself it left me in a very serious
condition. l could not straighten
nor do the most trivial act without
being in torture. The kidneys were
too active or the secretionS were too
copious, and knew what was wrong,
but how to right it vas a mystery.
1t seems odd for a professional
nurse, who has had n great deal of
experience with medicines, to read
advertisements about Doan's Kidney
Pills in the newspapers, and it may
appear more uldf loI lHO W 80

anybody told me before that it was
possible to get relief al quickly as
! did | would have been 10th to be-
lieve it. You can send anyone who
wishes more minute particulars
about my case to me-, and | will be
only too glad to tell them personal

CURE SICK
Motion for a New Trial.

1t is told of the late Senator Matt
Carpenter that one day while chat
ting with friends in a committee room
the conversation turned on the rela-
tive merits of religious sects. Nearly
every member of the party belonged to
some church, and there had been an
animated discussion, Senator Carpen-
ter pacing up and down, listening in
tently enough, but saying not a word.
What church do you belong to,
Carpenter?" asked ne.
Il don't belong to any"
why don't you join one?"
Il don't want to. None exactly
suits my views"
what one would you join if you
were to feel forced to a choice?"
"The Catholic, by all means"
and why the Catholic?"
Because they have a %purgatory,
and that's a motion for a new trial."

PROTEIN IN CORN.
Experiments Establish Results quite
at Variance With the General
Iy Accepted Idea.

Corn has always been regarded as a
poorlv-balanced ration except for fat
tenino purposes. The relative proper
ton of protein to the carbonaceous
substances is too small. Only a few
years ago it was asserted on appar-
entity good authority that h rela-
tive proportion of protein to the car
bonaceous substances found III corn
was very uniform, and that the aV-
erage per cent. of protein found III
the grain was but a little over 1O.5 per
cent. In 1897 the Kansas experiment
station took up the matter of corn
investigation, AMI they found that the
per cent. of protein found in several
varieties of corn analyzed TO vary
from 9.i5 to 17.12 per cent. a varia-
ton of 7.35 per cent. They found the
amount of protein TO vary in grains
from the same ear from 1915 to 1850.
a variation of 2.75 per cent. Different
ears of the same variety were found
TO vary as much as GA per cent.
These findings are quite different
from the accepted belief
about corn. They show that simply
so much corn per day is no safe stand
ard for the feeder to go by, as one
day the animal nay get a very much
larger amount of protein than is
given in the same amount of corn of
some other variety. They also sug-
gest lines of improvement by careful
selection of seed. But one difficulty
comes up. and hat is that we are not
all chemists, and can not select from
analysis of samples, but analysis of
different parts of the grain as re-
that the richness of the grain in pro-
tein depends upon the size of the
germ. An average of four varieties
showed the germs to contain nearly
% per cent. of protein. while the bal
ance of the grain contained only
about 13 per cent. This gives a basis
by which any farmer can intelligently
Judge as to whether his corn contains
D good per cent. of protein. If the
grains contain large germs they are
likely TO be richer in protein than if
they are relatively small. These fig
ures suggest a line of improvement
that if carefully followed would like
ly result in great Improvement in the
feeding value of the corn crop. BY
careful selection of seed with judi
cious fertilization, it is likely that
corn can be grown in a few years
that would not require so much cot
ton-seed meal and wheat bran TO bal
anc the ration. Practical tests have
shown that a soil rich in nitrogen
will grow a crop richer in protein
than ore relatively poor in this ele-
ment. so this RAY be an extra in
centive for the improvement of our
soils If it be found that the feeding
value OF the resulting crops is inn
proved in feeding value as well as in
quantity. Then the presence of a lib
eral supply of phosphorie acid en-
courages the laying up of protein in
the grain, so this is a poin. that must
not be overiooked.-A. J.. Legg. in

Enerimenta1 Farming.

The experiment stations in the diff.
ferent states are doing a great work
for the American farmers. They
have already repaid their cost many
times over, and their services have
only begun. They are doing for the
farmers things which need to be
done. but which the farmers ire ma
BILE to do. The average farmer has
neither the time, the money. the pa
thence, nor the ability to conduct
original researches. But it is neces
sary that such researches be made
and for this purpose the stations
were established. Consequently they
deserve the support and the cooper
alton of every farmer. There are
often many ways in which the farm
ers could be of service to their sta
ton, and through it to the profession
as a whole. Every such opportunity
should be improved. The farmers
should also see that their state legis
latures aid the stations TO b extent
of their ability. Money thus spent il:
not wasted, but is invested where ii
will give large returns. The farmers
should also profit by the labors OF
the station to a much greater eXteni
than they do now. Every farmer
should secure the bulletins of his
station. and also such publications o.
the United States department OF agrl
culture as will be useful to him, ane
study and preserve them. By so do
ing he will soon have a library OF the
best agricultural thought at almost
no cost. He should also feel free tt
write to the station staff for advice
and assistance whenever he desires
it. They are usually glad to be o.
service to the farmers, and to know
that their work is being appreciate
and is doing good. Get in touch VIII
