Probably farmers will arrange for a
supply of homemade syrup. They Will
plant sorghum for this purpose, also
some FIR feed. The annual production
of 25,o0o,0o0 gallons allows but a third
of gallon for each inhabitant, which
is sufficient for about ten days needs
Choice homemade syrup is much APP
preciated. 1t saves grocery bills and it
is pure goods.
\ ton of sorghum should make fif-
teen to twenty gallons of syrup. There
are impurities In the syrup which
should be extracted. First, the Juice
should be allowed to settle before be-
ing heated After coming nearly to the
boiling point empty in a tub and add
coarse clay and puddle with a hoe. Let
it settle half an hour and then carefully
pour 1t into the pan again. Boil and
be particular to skim it. When it is
half reduced to syrup again let it cool;
again, in the tub. add clay, mix well
and let stand over night. Next morn
Ing turn off the clear juice and boil to
the finished syrup. Be particular to
keep the utensils clean of skim, gum
and all the waste, and the syrup will
be a choice article that would sell
readily. This work calls for strict at
tention and not little skill, but it will
pay in money and satisfaction. -Prac-

Nathan RothschiId Made tx Million

There is probably no more pictur-

history than that by which Nathan
Rothschild made $6000,00o as a result
of the battle of Waterloo. The story
Is told by Henry Clews in his book,
''Twenty-eight Years in Wall Street.
Rothschild had followed Wellington
during his campaign against Napoleon
and at Waterloo the IMAM of money
sat like soldier in shower of rain
and bullets. watching the battle As
soon as he observed the arrival of
Butcher and the rout of the French,
Rothschild set spurs to his horse and
rode swiftly to Brussels. A carriage
whirled him TO Ostenc, and the next
morning he was at the Belgian coast.
The sea was so rough that he had to
pay $500 to a boatman to carry him
across the channel, and he landed at
Dover in the evening. The next morn

Saving Alfalfa.

The best way to sow alfalfa is to plow
the land deep in the spring or winter.
Turn up Il little new soil; harrow down
and sow beardless spring barley at the
rate of two bushels to the acre. Sow
fifteen poun IS, or peck, of alfalfa seed
at the same time. | usually roll the
land well after sowing. This makes
the alfalfa do better, but is sometimes
hard on the barley. Alfalfa win come
up through very firm soil and thrive
better than when it is too loose. Let the
barley ripen and cut it for grain. Then
when the alfalfa starts up a little clip
ii with the mower Clip 1t close. 1t will
start again, and after a month or SO clip
again. 1t is better TO keep stock off for
two years. Begin moving the second
year as soon as the blossoms form. At
ter the first crop is taken off it will ma
ture another in exactly thirty days. Do
not delay cutting this second crop. 1t
win take about thirty4five days for the
third crop to grow Take it off
promptly. Then in thirty-five or forty
days there is the fourth crop. Take it,

The Potato I.rnn.

A fair illustration of the difference
between an average crop and a good
crop may be found in the census re-
port of the potato crop. as given in
1900. The average crop for all the
States was placed at sos bushels pc
acre. The average in Vermont was 134
bushels that year and in Maine 126
bushels The new land in Montana
averaged the same as Vermont in 1900,
but they had 1876 bushels in 1897 and
40 bushels In 1896. Nevada had 100
bushels in 1896 and 1876 bushels in
1900. Of the other States. there were
1876 bushels per acre in 1900 in Idaho.
1lG in Washington, 10 in Oregon and
104 in California. The fact that Ne
vada and Idaho were the only States
that exceeded Vermont in 1900. and
Montana only equaled it. shows that
the stony lands of New England can
equal the newly settled and exceed
ingly fertile lands of the Northwestern
States; and If the cost of manure and
fertilizer and the labor of cultivation
is not as much there as here. there is
a gain in the better values that they
have here when ready for market
