A LEAP YEAR LETTER.

A confirmed young bachelor of Sa-
vannah is in doubt whether he will
have to draw on his bank account,
or buy a ticket to Canada. The cause
of his perplexity is scented little
letter that came in the mail a day
or two ago under a Toronto postmark
and with a stamp bearing King Ed
wards head. The contents of the let
ter, minus address and signature. fol-
low:
My dearest. much respected sir:
l send you this your love to stir.
Your love I've chosen first of all;
On you l make my maiden call.
l give to you the foremost chance
And bid you boldly to advance.
Your heart and hand 1 ask. no less,
And hope you'll grant my fond request
And send me back without delay
An answer, be ii yea or nay.
But If your heart does not incline
In wedlock to be bound with mine.
Then you must Leap Years law obey
And down to me Five Hundred nay,
Besides, dear sir, a handsome dress
l ask no more: will take no less.
Now. you may think my letter funny,
But I must have the man or money.

Profits in Guinea Hens.

The guinea, which is so despised by
so many people, l think is one of the
most interesting and profitable fowls
that we have on the farm. They are
great foragers In summer time when
insects and weed seeds are plentiful
They will make their own living on
the two articles named above, either
or both of which are pest to the
farmer You can trust them in your
garden. They will not bother any,
thing that you want When the wealth
err gets warm in spring you can count
on one egg from each hen every day
rain or shine. While eggs are not as
large as some eggs, If you want to
sell them they will bring the same
price as other eggs. If you want to
eat them. you can't find a finer flaw
ored egg If you want to eat the
guineas, the young ones are Just
splendid. l don't think they can be
beat by any fowl think white
guineas are best, as their flesh Is
whittier and their skin is more yellow,
and they are not 50 wild as the colored
ones. The white guineas will usually
lay where the chicken hens lay, es-
pecially If they have been raised by
chicken hens, which l think is the best
way to raise them. 1 expect to have
white guineas while 1 have chickens.

Small Parties Dine at Casino ana
Enjoy Sport.
Toboggan parties are becoming the
rage at Thunderbolt Park. The large
crowds yesterday did not admit of
many, as the toboggan slide was do
ing such a land office business that
private parties found it pleasanter in
the laughing gallery. But on week
nights these affairs are numerous.
There were a large number of parties
at the Casino Saturday night.
One of these was a farewell supper
given to Mr.. Robert Denham by a
number of his friends. Mr.. Denham
will leave shortly for Jacksonville to
make it his future home. Those in
the party were Mr.. Robert Denham,
Mr.. Robert T. Waller Jr., Mr.. Wal
ton Harper. Mr.. Edward Parish. Mr.
Clayton Purse, Mr.. Harry Daniel. Mr..
William May and Mr.. John Pasco.
Another party was composed of Miss
Carrie Lou Meldrim, Miss Marion Mac
lean, Miss Elsie Barnard, Miss Leonide
Leonard of Boston. Miss Elsie Bar
nard Miss Cornelia Maclean, Mr.
Thomas N. Denmark. Mr.. Cosmo r..
Hardee, Mr.. Willis Wilder and others.
In a third party were Miss Ethel Nc
Intire, Miss Ethel Taylor, Mrs. Ruby
Nicoll, Mr.. Alexander B. Hull, Jr.,
Mr.. Neyle Colquitt and Mr.. Edward
w. Bell.
Miss Nellie White, Miss Clifford West,
Mr.. Morehead and Mr.. Kuker COM
posed another party, while Miss Righ-
ton Habersham, Miss Maggie White
and Mr.. Stoddard were in another.
A M rtv which 1iDed q
and afterwards enjoyed the various
amusements was composed of Mr.. Will
liam Barnwell, Mr.. .Tohn Hammond,
Mr.. Robert Cannon and Mr.. Frank
Chisholm.
number of parties have already
been planned for this week. and Il
would seem that the toboggan party
will prove a favorite pastime for the
society set during the summer months.

FARM, GARDEN
AND HOUSEHOLD
By S. A. COOK.

! inches. It is all too shallow to COM
mence with, for the depth to which the
ground is broken measures its capacity
| to act as reservoir for water during
! the drier easons Of the year and 1t
| determines to a considerable extent the
area of ground through which the roots
of plants can forage in search of plant
food. When it is desirable to puddle
tank which is intended for irrigating
in the Western part of the United
States a small amount of water is run
into the excavation and the soil thor
oughly puddled by herding a flock Of
goats on it. Nearly every person has
had sufficient experience in making
mud pies to realize how thoroughly
hard they become after being sundried
for a little while. To pillow the sur
face soil when wet. simply means to
thoroughly puddle the subsoil which is
a part of the soil though unfortunate
ly not generally regarded as such in the
light of the treatment accorded 1t. TO
pillow land four inches deep and smear
over the subsoil and tramp and pack it
is simply sealing it up and cutting 1t
off as a source of supply for food, water
and slant roots during the crop sea-
son.
Is it any wonder under these cOndi-
tions that CROPS should suffer from
drought? Not at all. 1t is surprising
that they do so well on soils treated
after this fashion. The farmer should
remember that the subsoil is quite as
important to him as the surface soil.
He has been cultivating his land Tor
years to a depth of a few inches. The
subsoil has become thoroughly packed
and almost impervious to plant roots,
the food supplies it contains are locked
up and unavailable, and instead of be-
ing a reservoir for water ii prevents
the soil absorbing 1t and increases
surface washing. The more the land
is plowed wet the worse it will be for
the subsoil. 1t is really suicidal to
pillow clay lands wet and smear and
seal up the subsoil as is being done
so generally to-day. Let this unfor-
tunate practice be corrected. Plow
the surface soil deeply when in condi-
ton to be plowed Break up the sub
soil with a subsoiler to depth OF
fifteen or eighteen inches, and by max
ing a storage space for water let in
air which is necessary in order that
oxidation may proceed ana certain
forms of bacteria necessary to the
growth of plants may live and de-
velop, and that forms of plant food
necessary to the growth of plants may
be set free. Give the roots of the
plant some chance to branch out and
strike down in the soil and gather
food supplies from the subterranean
region. The farmer to-day is frequent
ly trying to farm on what is left of
the surface soil, something little bet
ter than subsoil The soil is lacking
in depth and the plants have not even
a respectable fighting chance. All this
is wrong Deep and persistent plow-
ing and the rational treatment of the
soil will insure larger and better
crops.

Producing Good MIX.

The whole secret of producing good
milk can be generalized in few
words: Healthy clean and well-fed
cows having a clean, comfortable sta
BILE; healthy, clean and quiet mixers
having a disposition to treat the cows
at least fairly; sound, clean and ster-
iliZed utensils, prompt cooling and pro-
lection of the milk. This is the secret
that Is bringing success to some dairy
men while their neighbors fail. These
conditions could be introduced easily,
cheaply and probably into thousands
of diaries. Too many dairymen make
the mistake of thinking that a large
outlay of money is necessary before
highs grade milk can be produced. They
are scared off by a phantom. The fact
is many diaries could be changed to
a sanitary from an unsanitary condi-
ton without the expenditure of a sim
gle dollar in cash. More light, more
fresh air, better arrangements for
bringing the feed and for removing
manure, little time each day to clean
the stable and the cows, a coat of
fresh whitewash once or twice a year
to cover and kill the bacteria on the
walls and partitions-these things are
not expensive-and perhaps a new cell
ing or floor above the cows to exclude
dust from the hay mow.-R. A. Pear

Flowing Land when wet.

There IS general impression that it
does not injure land to pillow il when
wet II done at a season of the year
when frosts are likely to follow, says
the Southern Agricuturist. The gem
eral belief is that the frost will pull
verize the soil no matter how lumDy
it may turn up and that this will Off
set any injury that may be done by
packing the soil grains through turning
over the ground when saturated with
water. There is a little truth in this
statement which makes it all the more
dangerous and hard to combat.
1t is a mistake to pillow land when
wet under any conditions. The land
cannot be turned over without injury
even IL frosts do follow, for after all
the soil is much like a sponge. When
rains are abundant il takes UP all the
water it can hold and occupies the larg-
est possible space. When drought
comes on a part of the water is evapor-
ated and the grains which compose the
soil collapse and great cracks appear
here and there. If the land is plowed
when too dry it turns up a very lumpy
condition because there is not enough
moisture to keep the particles intact
and to cause them to slip by each
other readily. When the land is
plowed too wet the particles do not
hence dry into a hard, compact mass
that neither rain nor implements of till
age can make any impression on.
When land is in suitable condition TO
pillow, the particles will fall readily
from the moldboard, and It is only un-
der such conditions that blowing
should be permitted, and IL people I'M
derstood more generally the injurious
effect of blowing land when wet the
practice would be corrected at once.
Flowing is in progress at the pres
ent time on many farms where the
land is 50 wet that a small stream of
water sometimes follows behind the
pillow, and in other cases the soil is so
soft that the boots of the plowman are
withdrawn from the soil with a suck
at every step. In conversation with
some farmers recently with reference
TO this matter the opinion was ex-
pressed that frost would correct any
injury that might come from blowing
the land in that condition. While this
may be true to a certain extent as re-
CARDS the surface soil. the freezes the
past winter did not affect the soil more
than two to four inches: hence they
had no appreciable effect on the in
verted part of the pillow furrow.
But this is not the worst objection to
wet blowing. Most of the breaking
being done at present doest not extend
beyond the depth Of three or four

Grass,

Grass is the great fundamental crop.
Without the aid of man land previous
to his intervention) it covers the habit
able earth everywhere with its mantle
Of green and fills the soil with a thick,
fibrous growth of roots, and not only
protects the land from the ravagas of
wind and water, but becomes also the
primary source of food for a large part
of the animal creation, says A. NJ. Ten
Eyck According to the government
reports, corn holds the first place as the
greatest wealth producing crop of this
country, while grass takes second rank.
It is safe to say. however, that the re-
verse is the actual fact. The reports
fail to take into account the great
wealth produced from grass as a pas
ture and its great value as a soil-pro-
tector and a soil-renewer, and it's pow
er to increase the yield of other crops
when used in rotation. Although the
native grasses grow without the aid of
man, yet it is only when certain do
mesticated species are cultivated that
the greatest production of hay and
pasture is secured"

OK Marbles.

A bulletin of the Kansas Agricultural
College says: Treatment should begin
as soon as the MARBLES are noticed
upon the animals backs. Most of the
MARBLES or grubs can be destroyed by
putting turpentine, kerosene, crude pc
troleum or mercurial ointment in or
on the opening through the skin di-
rectly over the MARBLE. If the opening
is very small, it should be enlarged by
using a smooth, pointed stick. A ma
chinists oil can having a slender noz-
zle furnishes an excellent method of
applying the medicine. BY running the
cattle through a chute they can be
treated quite rapidly. They should be
examined in about ten days, and any
that escape the first treatment should
be destroyed by a second; or better,
squeezed out and crushed; or they can
be crushed beneath the skin by pinch
ing the lump or killed by inserting a
pointed wire or large blunt pointed
needle. 1t is important that any grubs
squeezed out or escaping naturally
should be destroyed or they will trans
form into adult flies.

Cow Pen IIny.

Cowpea hay as a feed for all hay
eating animals has not been fully APP
preciated. 1t is very much superior to
timothy and other hays made from
the true grasses, the differences in
favor of first quality cowpea hay not
infrequently being double the feeding
value of the ordinary grass hays usu-
ally found on the market. AS COM
pared with alfalfa and red clover hays,
cowpea hay is superior in composition
and at least in digestibility. A ton
OF cowpea hay is equal in feeding
value to a ton of wheat bran, the pro-
portions and quantities If digestible
food elements being practically the
same in the two feeds, yet on the To-
cal market cowpea hay sells for from
s12 to $14 per ton and wheat bran
from $18 to 500 per ton. An equal
quantity of the two feeds will produce
practically the same amount of milk,
energy or growth.-C. L. Newman.

girls in the country that grow up with
out having the slightest idea of what
great and good possibilities lie before
them. This is not their fault so much
as the faults of the conditions and
people that surround them. The old
thought still survives in the country
that to be a farmer is to be a drudge
of a low order; that to make a living
at farming requires nothing but bone
and muscle. We are glad that some of
our country school teachers are taking
this matter in hand and are beginning
to educate the boys and girls in the
country schools as to what agriculture
really is and what it offers. 1t is an
encouraging feature when superintend-
ents of schools and of counties get up
excursions to agricultural colleges that
the boys and the girls may be awak-
ened in this matter of agricultural
possibilities
