Science and Porminr.


IL you tell the average Missouri
farmer that he ought to use a little
more science in his business he will
reply that the advocates CT scientific
methods are mere theorists; that they
do very well in their way, but they
can't teach practical agriculturist
anything in his line. Robert III. Kern,
a st. Louis lawyer, has lately given the
conservative farmers of Macon County
a lesson in scientific agriculture that
has opened their eyes. In settling an
estate he came into possession of some
almost worthless city property. This
he traded for some land in Macon
County which seemed almost equally
valueless. The larger part of it was
under water most of the time, and
good crop never had been raised on it.
Mr.. Kern called in an engineer and
had him make plans for a drainage
system. Then he called In a farmer
ture and put him to work. The land
was drained perfectly, a bog became a
fine meadow, and where swamp had
been from time immemorial bumper
corn crop was raised. Now that farm,
which, when Mr.. Kern got 1t, would
hardly have brought IS per acre, is
worth $50 per acre. Ten thousand dol
lars worth Of corn was raised on it
last year. 1t is said half the jewellers

1t is well understood that the eggs
aid during the winter are. to a certain
extent at least. a forced production.
This being the case, 1t is hardly fair
10 expect that the fowl who has turn
ed out a goodly supply of eggs during
the winter can keep it up during the
summer. 1t Is questionable IL It would
be advisable to force the winter lay
ing fowl TO continue during the sum-
mer If the bird is to be counted as
among the layers the following win
ter she should be allowed the period of
rest during most Of the summer; that
is, she should not be fed so as TO force
egg production. but her food should be
sufficiently liberal and sufficiently va
rled to keep her in good shape TO go
into winter quarters prepared TO lay.
The poultryman who has not received
from mis- fowls the number of eggs he
should have had during the winter
ought to make an effort to get even
during the summer, the natural season
for the hen TO lay. This cannot be
done by simply turning the hens out on
the range. for they must be granted
and properly cared for. Handle them
as you would the fowls for winter egg
productions. 1t will not be expensive.
for most of their living will be obtain
ed on the range and, unless eggs are
very low In price. you will receive
enough from the supply to pay well
for the extra food and care.

outdoine the Doctor.

Scottish shrewdness is occasionally
overnatched by Irish wit. The hand
full of people who inhabit a certain lit
tie island in the Atlantic, Off the coast
of Donegal, enjoy so much health and
so little wealth that there is no doctor
on the spot. In rare cases of emergency
a physician is brought in a boat from
the nearest village on the mainland.
On one occasion some islanders who
were obliged to summon the doctor
found that he had gone to Dublin on
business. AS the case was urgent,
they invoked the services OF another
practitioner. This gentleman was q
Scotsman, with the proverbiaI canni-
ness Of his race, and he declined TO
undertake the voyage unless he re-
ceived his fee-a golden sovereign
In advance.
There was no help for It, and the
money was paid. The physician went
to the island and attended to the case.
But when he inquired for a boat to
take him away he found that not a
boatman on the island would ferry him
back again for any less consideration
than two pounds paid in sdyance.
The doctor had to part with the two
sovereigns and to admit that be had
been beaten at his OWL game.
