Traininq Women Farmers.

The countess of Warwick continues
her public work in the training OF
women farmers at Reading, and has
been marvelously well sustained by
some donors. AT present we have
"surplus"-I only use the common
phrase, and your lady readers need
not be assured that the expression is
one that | do not like-of over 1,000,-
600 women in this country; and any
thing that makes for a natural out
let to them is worthy of attention.
Perhaps even more has been done by
the purely horticultural college for
women, established at Swanley, in
Kent, where the lie and the training
succeed in equipping every suitable
worker for the earning of an honor
allie livelihood. An old country
house forms the college building,
which stands in the midst of its 40
or SO acres of land. For almost
dozen years the work has continued,
and have not heard of a disappoint-
ed candidate. From breakfast to
dinner the rule is garden work, in
Guiding glass houses for marketable
produce; or among the poultry, the
bees, or in the conservatory. In
afternoon, lectures, followed by rec
reation. notebooks and matters of
personal attention-all forming
tolerably full day, till the bell rings
for lights out" at 10. "A good and
a natural life, as we'll as an excellent
training" many of your readers will
say. The costs are higher than at
Reading; higher than in the case OF
the great Belgian school, which
gave in detail few months since.

opportunities for heaping up riches
on farms devoted to the production of

STORING OF THE RAINFALL.

The storing up of water during wet
periods in order to secure proper
irrigation when dry is a matter of
vital interest to the farmer, par
= ticularly the small farmer, all over
the country. Prof. S. w. Doty, writ
ing to the Indiana Farmer, gives
some valuable suggestions. He says:
AS an Illustration of the value of a
little inventive genius in utilizing all
possible advantages of ones sur
roundings, there is a small grower of
strawberries and other small fruits
who makes every rain store water for
irrigating his plants in dry weather.
In his section of the country, dry
weather at the critical fruitgroWing
period, makes his crop some years
very uncertain, but if he can mature
and Tipen a full crop he realizes a
good profit. Consequently he has
Eeen led to protect his interests by
means Of an invention of his own
All the water which falls on his barn
and house is conducted by leaders to
a huge tank made of wood and
cemented inside to be water tight
This tank holds enough water to
irrigrate his plot Of five acres
through almost any ordinary drouth.
AS an artificial water gatherer he has
arranged a seies Of slanting wooden
frames which he covers with canvas
in the spring season to catch the rain
water. BY means Of these he Is en-
ablCd to store the water which falls
over a considerable area. The can
vas covering is put up only prior to
the dry period of early summer, and
taken down when the crops have
been harvested. They are sort of
emergency water gatherers. The
water running down the sides of
these canvass slopes is caught in a
gutter and conducted to the stO age
tank, where it is kept until needed.
The construction of this tank, with
its capacity of $4,000 gallons, was the
most expensive part of the work, and
it required a good deal Of work and
planning to locate it so that it would
have a slight elevation above the fiat
garden. AS it stands today it sup
plies very slight pressure to the
water, and the pipes and hose which
tap the tank can carry the water to
any part of the five acres. During
long periods of dry weather the man
keeps his crops supplied with
sufficient moisture to make them
grow continuously. There has never
been time in the past five years
when he lost anything from drouth,
although farmers all around re-
peatedly lost a part or all of their
small berry crops. The invention
and work certainly pays Zig interest
on the investment, and should serve
to encourage others to make some
provision against destructive dry
weather where so much depends upon
the results.

Increase in Macaroni Wheat Produc-
ton.

Mark A. Carleton chief cereaIist
of the United States department of
agriculture, says that over 100000
bushels Of macarOni wheat will be
produced in the western states next
years. over 100000 bushels were
grown in the country this year, 20
times more than the amount raised
the preceding season, so that the
acreage is being swelled rapidly.
This is new crop for this country,
and it will be some time before we
raise enough for local consumption.
This year over 100000 pounds of
manufactured macaroni were i'm
ported. 1t will be four or five years
before we can begin to export. The
grade of the wheat raised in tn4s
country is as good as the foreign
article and there is a big market
abroad for our product at present.
The profit on this wheat is based on
the greater yield to the acre The
price per bushel is about the same as
the standard wheat. During the past
ILL &C SSdl0 IL las dNCI dSCu oil IuG
way from 20 to 25 bushels an acre.
The reason for this is that the grain
is twice as big as the standard
varie,es, and the number of stalks
to the plant is a great deal more.
An important point is that it can be
raised where flour wheat cant be
grown. 1t needs very little moisture
and in dry countries it thriyes the
best. The grain cannot be grown
east of the Mississippi river with any
success, for the climate is too damp
North and South Dakota are the chief
producers. 1t is being introduced in
the dry sections of Texas with sue
cess. 1t is the hardest wheat in ,he
world. 1t is entirely an erroneous
idea that macaroni is consumed en-
tirely or mostly by foreigners. One
of the principal reasons why it is
not used as much as it should be is
that we don't know how to cook it
properly.
