willow posts about six inches in diam
eter which had been set this spring for
a fence. Every last one Of these posts
because Of the excessive moisture of
the month Of May-has gone to grow

instead Of draining the slough he de-

too much cannot be said in favor of the
Crimson Rambler rose. 1t is a hundred
times more attractive than the old
Prairie Queen. In the north it needs
protection during the winter.
Seven sows and twenty-one pigs
weighed and turned in on two acres Of
alfalfa and fed a light corn and slop
ration were again weighed at the end
Of thirty days and showed a gain in
value at the current price of pork Of
$1S.O1. This was in Nebraska
Where a man can raise alfalfa and
can get the pigs, cows and hens to
work in connection with the alfalfa
he'has got about as certain and profit
able business combination as we
know of. Twenty acres under this
plan are better than forty acres in
corn.
People have a craving for green's In
the spring and are sometimes careless
in what they gather to put in the pot,
as was one woman out west who tried
the broad leaves of the pieplant. which
contained enough poison to kill her.
Men have not the native instinct of ami
mails in the selection of green foods.
In those seasons when extra good
crops are produced under ordinary
methods Of tillage the excess over av-
erage yield may usually be credited to
favorable climatic conditions A single
frost, hailStOrm or few days of eX-
cessive drought or moisture at critical
time very often will greatly reduce
the yield of any crop.
If the strawberry bed has been fruit
ed two seasons the best thing to do is
to plow it up. While it might be reno
waited by the expenditure Of good
deal Of work, it will be found every
way better to rely on the new bed
which you, of course, set out last
spring. Then, the strawberry likes a
change of soil about every two years
anyway.
A Nebraska man set out to raise a
big crop of corn-see what he could do
by specially preparing and fertilizing
an acre of rich Nebraska soil. He put
$50 into the mechanical preparation Of
the soil and in fertilizers, raised 22O
bushels of kiln dried shelled corn, sold
the crop for 5000 and won a prize Of
$500 offered by farm paper and an
other 5000 offered by the makers of the
fertilizers used. The acre also pro-
duced 100 bushels of corn the following
season without any special work being
put on the land.

Intelligent and sensible methods Of.
agriculture will redeem many of the
seemingly waste places, for it is poor
soil and most ungenial climate where
nothing can be successfully grown.
The boggy marsh may be drained and
made the most productive acre on the
farm, the bleak and barren knoll may
be converted into thrifty grove Of
pines and cedars, the duck pond be
changed into a cranberry plantation
and the white sand, piny sections be
made to support a thrifty farm popula
ton by the judicious combination Of
rye, clover, the potato and the cow.
The new agriculture works much on
this line Of redemption. recovery and
renovation Of waste places. '.5

Eleven rows of Strawberries seven
rods long gave us this year bushel Of
berries day for three weeks. The bed
cost but trife to plant and care for
and is good for another crop next year.
AS soon as the fruitlng season was over
the bed was mown close with a scythe
and the rubbish raked off and burned
Then it was thoroughly worked with a
horse cultivator, all except strip one
foot wide in each row. which was left
to furnish a new growth of plants. The
cultivator will 60 through the bed two
or three times more before fall.

A father sitting in the car seat be-
hind us short time since was busily
engaged in showing his ten-year-old
son how to match pennies. The boy
learned easily, and if the father in
few years has to mortgage his home to
pay poker debt contracted by his son
he will have nobody but himself to
blame. We do not understand what
excuse a man has to offer for being as
big fool as this. ~ ..s
There never grew anywhere in all
the known world such magnificent
body of timber as may be found on the
westerly slopes of the, Cascade noun
tains in Washington. In this connec-
ton it is worth noting that there as
nowhere else will this timber quickly
reforest the mountain slopes as it is
removed, and so make it possible un-
der reasonable care and regulations
to maintain for all time great forest
reserve for the future use Of the
country.

Cheap milk can only be produced
from good COWS and good feed. If it
costs more to get quart Of milk from
COW than it is worth, what is the use
Of keeping the COW? When a lady takes
boarders she takes them not for their
Christian example or. for their society,
but to try and make little profit from
feeding them. When a man keeps
cow he is supposed to try to do the
same thing. but it is only too true that
many of his boarders do not pay their
way and afford him no profit The man
who is delinquent in his board bill gets
fired, and the cow should likewise
We know. some men who keep them
selves poor just moving around, an un-
easy, discontented, dissatisfied lot, al
ways thinking they can find some place
where living can be made easier,
where they will find better neighbors
and enjoy life better. Where the move
involves the disposal Of farm and its
belongings and the usual loss of a crop
year it will cost 81, 900 or more to move.
It often happens that this much money
put into Improvements and betterments
at the old place would make it just the
place they. want. It Is good thing
that things are so fixed that man can
make just about as much money in one
place as another. l
Somebody tell us why the men who
live down among those Virginia hills
and try in such toilsome and pa
thetic way to hew and dig out little
bit Of land on the mountain slopes for
a farm do not 60 to work and plant the
steep and stony hillsides to choice ap-
pie trees, the one thing more than all
others which does well In that coun-
try under existing conditions. Eng

pin they could raise at prices which
would make the growers wealthy in a
