agent for the bridge company, and the
court in the damage suit also so held,
eliminating Hoover from the case.

Fresh Fish as Manure.

A correspondent at Livermore Gen.
tire wrote the Maine Experiment Sta
ton asking for information as to the
value of fresh fish as fertilizer. The
following reply was sent:
Fresh fish and fish waste have been
used for manure by farmers living
along the coast for generations and
there is no question as to their fer
tilizing value for all farm crops. Fish
is not, however, a complete fertilizer
and it's chief value is due to the nitro
gen it contains. In the fresh I'M
ground fish the phosphoric acid of the
bones is not Immediately available to
plants but becomes SO in time when
mixed with the soil. Fish contains
practically no potash and unless this
ingredient is supplied either in the
form of potash salts or wood ashes the
land soon becomes exhausted of its
available supply. Dried fish has an
average composition of water IL per
cent, nitrogen 7.25 per cent and phos-
phoric acid 1926 per cent. The fresh
fish would probably contain so to so
per cent Of water and proportionately
less nitrogen and phosphoric acid. I'm
less it could be bought very cheaply. it
would not be an economical fertilizer
in your locality as you would have to
pay freight on a large amount of
water having no manurial value.

IRRIGATION Reservoirs.


We have heard a great deal about
irrigation reservoirs. in the semi-arid
states, but nothing has been said
about such reservoirs in the humid
states. Yet such reservoir exists at
the Missouri Experiment station. In
this case dam has been thrown
across ravine and large pond thus
created for the storage of storm water.
The pond drains twenty acres of land,
and Is forty feet deep in it's deepest
part. This year it has not been used
on account of the very heavy rainfall
in that region. In most years, how
ever, it proves valuable. Below it is
a considerable area of land on which
are grown various kinds of garden
truck and alfalfa. It is NOT intended
to use this land for corn, nor is it
believed it will pay to irrigate corn,
as that can hardly be considered q
plant adapted to intensive cultural
methods. Professor Waters says that
there are numerous farms on which
such reservoirs might be constructed
at moderate expense, and ponds
created that would prove the salvation
of some of the most important crops

The Farm Home.


The most successful: farmers pay
some attention to the tbeautifying of
the farm home. The man that takes
no interest in the surroundings Of his
habitation will usually be found to be
the man who has not enterprise
enough to succeed in his general farm
ing operations. Trees well placed are
an immense addition to the home and
not only increase it's desirableness to
the occupants, but make it more val.
liable in the market. What is more
dreary than a farm house in bare
spot with no touches of nature near it?
|. The children in that house will get
out into the great world as soon as
possible after getting big enough to
do SO. Beauty is power everywhere,
and no less in the farm surroundings
than elsewhere. Let it have sway on
the farm. Plant trees, perennial
shrubs and flowers, and make perma-
.nent places for annual flowers. Above
all and in addition to all have a nice
lawn. 1t will cost money and labor,
but it will be worth all that it costs IN
both. These things will make the boys
and girls love the farm and keep them
from leaving it,. II forced out into
the world they will often come back
to the old home beloved because of the
beautiful things that exist there.

: ohio's Onion Crop. 4

| = .EHE = : ID
Charles r. Guelf makes the follow:
Ing observation on the Ohio onion crop
for this year: sss, 4. -G.. .38'
Ohio no doubt has far the best onion
crop this season, OF any state In the
commercial onion belt. In the Lake
county district, where about 1000
acres were seeded. the crop H. estt-
mated at from one-third to one-hat
more than last season, and Of very
good quality. This district, last year,
had but two-thirds Of crop OF small
inferior stock. In the Hardin county
district, where a liberal acreage was
seeded, the crop was again badly dam
aged by wind-storms, leaving the crop
practically the same as a year ago,
with yield of 1885, 900 bush els, mostly
very good stock. In the Toledo dis
trict, the crop is somewhat larger than
a year ago, due to an increased acre
age, and the stock is very good. In
Western Pennsylvania, where con-
siderable acreage is grown, the crop
is about one-fourth larger than last
season, and about the same as two
years ago; the bulbs are larger and Of
better quality. In Madison and Wayne
counties the crop is estimated to- be
about 100000 bushels, as against 200,-
900 last year, with an average better
quality. In Wyandot county the out
put will probably exceed $4,000 bush
els, as against 10000 last year, and
while some very good onions have
been harvested, great proportion are
of small size and not very good keep
ing quality. Licking county, with a
small acreage, reports a very good
crop.
