WHERE SHALL HE COT

There are many young men in all the
older settled states possessing few
hundred dollars which they have earn
ed and saved who would like to know
where to go to secure piece of cheap
land which by developing would in
twenty years become a valuable farm.
Without attempting to give any exact
locality where this may be done, in a
general way it may be said that the
hardwood timber lands of northern
Wisconsin and Minnesota have the
making of excellent farms, these
timber lands being exceptionally good
grass lands, timothy and clover finding
there almost perfect conditions for
their best development, and it goes
without saying that where grass will
grow agricultural prosperity follows
as natural sequence. 1t takes some
years of hard work and not a little
patience and grit to make a good farm
out of such land, but it can be done
with almost absolute certainty. Mis-
souri, offers many opportunities for
young men Of this class, particularly
in the more thinly settled sections Of
the state. and offers some advantages
which the north country does not
possess-mild winters and the chance
to grow almost any sort of fruit. We
found in north Texas fine chances to
secure good land at low rates. OF
course, the agriculture Of that south
country is entirely different from that
of the north, but the bright young
northern man can soon adjust himself
to the conditions. A lot Of range land
in western Nebraska is soon to be had
from the government in GAO acre
tracts at very low rates, but in the
main it is only adapted for grazing
purposes. Then there are many Sec
tons in the so called semiarid por-
tons of the west where alfalfa will
grow and do well, land which has not
heretofore been rated as of much value,
but which, with alfalfa, can be made
very valuable. Then, strange as it
may seem, there are plenty Of farms
in the eastern states which can be
bought for only trifie more than the
cost of the buildings on them, farms
which have been worked out and made
unproductive, which young man
knowing how can take and build up
and make valuable property.

THE COTTON ROLL wEEyu.

Another important discovery Is to be
credited to the enterprise Of the de-
partment Of agriculture. Just when it
has become certain that the cotton
crop of this country was to be most
seriously menaced and reduced in
quantity by the ravages of the boil
weevil an expert of the department en-
gagged in chronological work in Mex
leo, the home of the weevil, searching
for some enemy to II. has discovered
brown ant which makes it its life
work to destroy the weevil, and steps
will be taken ut once to introduce this
ant on 10 southern cotton plantations.
This exactly parallels the earlier case
OF the importation of the ladybug
from Australia, which completely
cleaned out the orange scale in the
orchards of California. Such scientific
work as this means millions to the
country

The south has one horse agricul'
ture = that is, blowing, cultivating
and working the land are mostly done
with one horse, or, rather, mule. A
little farther north there will be found
a two horse agriculture, where two
horses form the motive power for farm
work; in Iowa the three horse team is
almost universally found, blowing,
dragging, seeding, harvesting, while up
In North Dakota we find the four horse
type of farming, where vast areas are
SKINNED over from year to year with
the least possible expenditure for hui

BY what process do birds identify
each other when once mated? 1t can
hardly be by sight alone, for there is
no apparent difference in appearance
In members of the same species. Do
birds have an individuality like human
beings by which they can be identified,
or is recognition secured by means Of
some difference in voice, or is there
something connected with the fine in
stinct which birds and animals have In
place of sense which enables them to
know each other?

quent and the rainfall heavy, making
the securing Of this crop one of the
most difficult problems on the farm. 1t
Is safe to say that not 50 per cent of

Our observations lead us to believe
that not less than 60 per cent of the
young birds which are Matched Of al
most any species, save the sparrow,
are destroyed from one cause or an
other before they are able to leave
the nest and care for themselves. The
domestic cat is one of their worst enc
mics, the crow and blue jay raid the
nests of the tree building birds. while
the skunk raids the nests of those
which build on the ground. We have
known a cat to wipe out a family of
eight young wrens in one afternoon,
taking them one by one as they left
the nest Birds, like men, find it hard
to adapt themselves TO civilized condi-
tons. When we consider the TRACE
dies which beset all bird life the won
der is we have any birds left.

1t is probably true that the dragging
of the corntield just as the corn is
coming up and after it is up does some
damage to the stand; but, on the other
hand. it thereby receives sort of Gull
tvation which no other tool save the
weeder can give it. If the ground is
cloddy or filled with old cornstalks we
would not use the drag.

The minimum rates of transportation
are about reached by the great railway
corporations of the country. They can
hardly further improve the physical
condition of their systems by eliminat-

! The corn crop is distinctively an
American crop. the 2,0OO,0OO,OOO BUSH
els or more produced each year being
nearly all consumed in this country.
Only in two years, 1897 and 1899, was
there so much as 10 per cent of the
crop exported. This crop forms the
basis of all our enormous meat, poultry
and stock production.

A ten dollar passage rate from Euro

We can readily see how cats can be

In the clearing of timber farms in
northeast Missouri we notice that 1t is
a common practice to leave the black
walnut trees. Just for ornament and
as bearers of nuts this plan is all right.
but it is hopeless method of trying to
grow the trees into saw logs, for, being
enormous tops and are thus of little
value for lumber

The red fox increases In number
with settlement and civilization. The
eastern states are overrun with them.
They were entirely unknown in Iowa
and Minnesota forty years ago, the
prairie wolf occupying their field.
Now the wolves are about extermi-

full, one county in Iowa having paid
bounties on hundred killed last win
ter.

Roast beef may be said to be almost
as standard an American dish as 1t Is
with our English friends. While 1t
should not be so, there are plenty Of
cooks who are utterly ignorant as to
how long a roast should be cooked.
The following is said to be the correct
guide: Thirteen minutes to the pound
and thirteen minutes for the oven will
give what is known as rare cooked
meat, fifteen minutes to the pound
aud fifteen minutes for the oven will
give a medium cooked roast, and twen-,
u minutes to the pound and twenty
minutes for the oven Will make the
roast well done.
