Musician Played So Well That the
Congregation Wouldn't Be
Dismissed.

Reginald De Koven was touring the
country with one of his operas" said New
lork musician, land certain Sunday found
him in the town of Dayton.
They told Mr.. De Koven that an Epis-
copal church in the neighborhood had SUI
perb organ. Accordingly he went to that
church, ascended to the organ loft, and sat
beside the organist during the mornings
service.
You seem to know something about
music" said the organist in . condescending
way, "! ;IIi H. let you dismiss the congregation
why, yes, said De Koven, I would like
that very much.
Accordingly, at the end Of the recession.
a, he exchanged places with the oreanist
and began to play Mendelssohn's Spring
Song. He played beautifully. The Dayton
people, enthralled by the wonderful music,
refused to depart. They sat in rapt enjoy.
ment, and after the Spring Song was fin
ished Mr.. De Koven began Chopin's sFu-

FEMININE DAIRY WISDOM.

Use plenty Of land plaster. Clean the
stalls at least twice day.
Utilize all food to help carry the cows
in winter quarters in the best health and
thrift
Sour apples may be fed to cows, but
very carefully, as they sometimes make
the mouth sore.
Let all the sunshine in the stables that
is possible Dark stables are always
damp. Damp stables are an abomina-
ton.
Exposure to cold, storms and short,
frost-bitten pastures viii reduce cows
so much that the whole winter will be a
loss.
Look out as the cold nights come that
the cows are in their stalls and have a
good supply of fodder; all they will eat
up clean.
The COW stable should be kept SO clean
and so well ventilated that the absence
of disagreeable odor will be noticeable.
1t is easy-try it.
Make the stable more comfortable for
the coming winter; see that the win
dows are well fitted and the broken
glass renewed before the frosty days
come.
Arrange warm. sunny, cozy corner
'or the calves, and give them chance
to be happy and thrifty. Their future
usefulness depends upon it.-Dorothy
Tucker, in Farm Journal.

The soil is not only the bank from
which the farmer draws the needed
supplies which he has deposited, but
1t Is also the mine from which he digs
the original sources of wealth which
he may deposit. The soil contains, in
ample quantities, the mineral elements
of plant life. without which there can
be no successful crops grown But
these are held in an insoluble condi-
tion. Plants can not use them until
they are made soluble, and this ALL
important work is done by nature only
upon certain conditions. One of the
most important Of these conditions is
that the soil should be broken and
pulverized so as to admit a free cir
culation of the air. If this is done
aeration will do It's all-important work
of rendering soluble the mineral ele-
ments which are found in the soil. The
water provided as above. finding these
minerals in a soluble condition, takes
them in hand and feeds the little
plants when called for.
Thus we find that the same thorough
of the sol. which helped to
keep the bank In a healthy condition
also enables us to work the mine SO
as to keep on hand a continuous fund
Of supplies.-Dixie Farmer.

Corn and sunflower silaee.

valueof the sunflower as food for
animals is being recognized much more
generally than in the past. One diff
Guilty has been the lack of satisfactory
method of harvesting and feeding the
crop. Animals are very fond of both
the seed and the coarser part of the
plant and it is a very nutritious crop.
No other farm crop contains SO high a
combined percentage of protein and fat
If the stems as well as the seed can be
secured in suitable condition for feed
ing purposes the total yield of crop per
acre that can be secured will certainly
be large. Some dairymen have been ex-
perimenting with a mixture of corn and
sunfowers grown together for silage,
and the reports indicate satisfactory
results, an increased yield of superior
ensilage being obtained over that pro-
duced by corn alone.-Prairie Farmer.

HAY WITH GREEN FORAGE.
Experience OF q Wisconsin Dairymap
Who Seems to Know All ABOUT
His Business.

TO make COWS profitable they must
have an abundance of good milk pro-
ducing food the whole year round
Doth winter and summer, said C. r
goodrich at farmers meeting. There
has never yet been a summer in Wis
consin where pasture alone would
supply a sufficient amount of such
food all the time. If the pasture ia
large in proportion to the number of
COWS, then the grass, during the rapitl
growing season in the fore part of the
summer, grows much faster than the
cows can eat it. This excess of grass
soon ripens and dries up, becoming in
nutritious and unpalatable. SO that
cows will not eat it. Then when the
heat and drought of midsummer and
autumn comes fresh grass grows SD
slowly that cows cannot get enough
without working too hard for it, and to
DO well they must then be fed some
thing else. This is not an economical
way of doing, for there is a large
amount of good feed wasted, and one
cannot afford that, especially where
land is as valuable as it is in most
parts of Wisconsin.
A better way to do is to have the
number of cows proportioned to the
pasture, so that they will keep the
grass fairly well fed off during the
most growing season, and supplement
the pasture with succession OF green
forage crops. 1t is not necessary that
these supplementary crops should De
fed perfectly green, making it neces-
sary to cut it each day as It is fed
In fact ! think it is even better that
they be wilted or partially cured. so
that enough can be cut at one time
and somewhat dried to last several
days. If there should be more of these
supplementary crops than are needed
to feed during the summer they can be
cut when at, the right stage and made
into hay or cured.
/ have found that It is a good way
to feed some dry forage in connection
with succulent pasture erass or any
other succulent food. For more than
25 years the cows on my farm
have been fed every day during the
summer some nice early cut hay, usu-
ally clover hay. 1t is put in their man.
gers every time they are put in the
stable to be milked, and they always
eat some with great relish. no matter
how good the grass may be in tho

Iciover to depend upon, and while their
values were generally well known,
their good Offices were not fully en-
ployed; for even in those days, as now.
farmers often knew better than they
did. In ordinary farming there is an
appalling amount of the richness of the
land deliberately wasted. There IN
much wasted, also, through ignorance
and careless methods
But now the days of our primitive
knowledge concerning the land are
past, and while research and experi-
ment have taught us much concerning
the secrets OF the soil we till, 1t ia
highly probable that our present boast
cd knowledge has mastered but little
more of the much to learn than the
little we knew in the early days of
manure and clover. We know more
OF the why's and wherefores, of course,
which is a great satisfaction to the
student farmer, and enables him to
conduct his operations with under
standing and intelligence; but the ma
nure that brings the clover, that brings
the corn, works as well for the dullard
who does not know single reason
why as for the wise institute lecturer
who will talk one to sleep preaching
the doctrine of clover"-and sometimes
better. for the talker often is nothing
more.
Tull said, "Tillage is manure" which
remains one of the fine figures of
speech of agricultural literature; and
to our manure and clover, by the use
OF better implements for culture, we
have added marvelously to production.
Then came the chemicals, with their
high prices, wonderful claims, and in
many cases cheating adulterations.
Often too much was claimed for them,
hut their usefulness is fixed, and they
have taken their places with manure.
clover and tillage.
From some sources a sensational
note of alarm comes regarding the
acid some of the commercial fertilizers
carry to the soil, but If there is any
cause for alarm under any circum-
stances it is not feared by working
farmers that their soils will become
acidulated where the legumes are
grown, the rotation is of a sensible
character. animal manure used and
good tillage practiced. More extensive |
than any alarm, because coming with |
more authority, are the promises for |
bacterial assistance The bacteria of |
the soil, about which we read and hear
SO much, are more of an effect than
a cause, and are one OF the wherefores
that are explaining to us why we get
the good from the manure, the clovers,
the chemicals and the tillage. We may
talk profoundly about them, their op-
erations and functions II we wish; they +
remain so far merely one of the UNDER
standable features of simple fertility.
A simply sufficiently fertile soil
needs any incubation, and
