PENSACOLA Fla, April 16.-The
twelve inch gun crew of the battleship
Texas now holds the worlds record
for fast and accurate work, snatching
the laurels from the battleships Wis
consin and Alabama, between which
ships there was Il dispute as to the
championship. The Texas has conclud-
ed her practice in the gulf and came
into the harbor, when it was made
known that she had an average Of
about 50 per cent hits, which is about
2 per cent better than that of the Wis
consin, which vessel has been herald
ed as possessing the prize gun crews
Of the navy. This record is also better
than that made by the Alabama,
which was thought to be the worlds
record and far ahead Of the flagship
Kearsarge.

Learn Practical work.

Each farm is a local problem. and
each farmer must be more or less of an
experimental. Farm boys of Illinois
are always very much interested in
corn. There are over 5000 boys and
girls in the state who raise corn to
compete in the corn growing contests
at their county farmers institutes, and
this competition has led them to think
of something besides the prizes they
hope to win.
Every one of them has learned some
thing as to why and how plants grow
and why some plants, like some men.
thrive and prosper better than others.
Careful attention to every detail in the
growing and harvesting of a plat of
corn is suggestive and enables a boy
to discover much for himself.-Farm-
ers' Advocate.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
live stock Farming.

Regarding the value of live stock
farming as compared with the growing
and selling of grain, Professor L. III.
Pammel of the Iowa agricultural col
lege says:
1T has been demonstrated both by
experience and practice that the farm
or who sells beef, pork and mutton that
he has produced from the corn and
grass raised and fed on the farm
makes more money per acre than the
one who grows only wheat or corn or
cotton and sells it.
1T is not necessary to entirely dis
continue raising these crops, but if we
are to produce a surplus to be sold in
foreign markets it is best to export
that surplus in the most condensed and
marketable form, as meat and animal
products, rather than in the original
crude and bulky state.
I'm the long run the farmer will
make the most money who devotes his
fields to the growing of forage crops to
feed stock making use of all the raw
products at home, thereby saving not
only much of the cost of transportation,
but maintaining the fertility of the
soil. BY doing so corn belt farmers
will maintain their pre-eminence in
agricultural lines.
Experience in the past few months
has shown that the men who stuck to
feeding and were not tempted by high
prices to sell their corn have made the
most money. Anything that Will en-
nance the productive capacity of our
soils for the production of forage con-
ditions will help the farmer

Spraying NozzIes.

The Importance of a good nozzle for
spraying is emphasized by Professor
III. H. Lamson in recent bulletin Of
the New Hampshire experiment sta
ton. A nozzle should break the stream
of liquid into fine particles and should
be SO constructed that it does not read
lily clog. 1t should also be provided
with some device for clearing in case
clogging occurs. Not enough hose is
furnished by pump manufacturers.
Fifteen or twenty feet is the least that
can be used with convenience in spray
ing potatoes and fruit trees, and fifty
foot length is recommended.-Ame
can Agriculturist.

Handling Manure.

One hundred head of avera ge cattle
properly cared for during five months
winter will produce from 800 to 1000
tons of farlnyard manure, worth on the
average $3.50 per ton for the fertiliza-
ton of succeeding crops, states L. Law
son in the Rural World. There is no
soil SC rich that the farmyard manure
will not increase the yield and quality
of the crop and no soil so poor that
liberal application of this fertilizer will
not be followed by satisfactory results.
Fifteen to twenty tons to the acre of
properly prepared farmyard manure as
top dressing TO a wornout hay mead
ow will double or treble its previous
product, and the increase is apparent
for years. It's value for fertilizing pur-
poses largely depends on its constitu-
ents, its methods of preparation and
the condition in which it is applied.
The solid portion of excreta of cattle
has comparatively little value as a fer
tilizer unless these are being fattened
on liberal heterogeneous ration, such as
cottonseed meal, when a liberal per-
centage is liable to be unassimilated
and pass through, giving it a value as
fertilizer, but in young cattle and
milk stock the assimilation is usually
such as to leave the solid excreta only
inert organic matter. The liquid por-
ton, or urine, contains the waste of
the tissues in the form of urates and
salts, which, stored in suitable We
hicle and allowed to ferment and I'M
dergo a chemical decomposition, make
a very rich and effective fertilizer.

The Modern way with Corn.

The practice of northern and western
farmers in cutting their corn in field is
due to their desire to utilize the fodder
grown with the corn. This they do in
the most economical manner by using
a machine for cutting and harvesting
the crop. Sixty per cent of the feed
value of the corn crop is in the ear,
10 per cent in the stalk and leaf.
By the western method of saving corn
the live stock eat all but 10 per cent of
the crop grown, which is represented
in refuse bits of stalk too coarse to be
eaten.
The corn crop OF the west is a success
because it is handled with machinery
and every part of the crop fully util-
lied. We of the southwest will never
grow corn largely until we adopt the
machine methods of production, as only
a limited amount of fodder or corn
blades can be saved by the old antebel-
lum system of fodder pulling."-DaI-
las (Tex) Farm and Ranch.
