FIFTY YEARS AGO.

The writer's elementary and primary
training in agriculture was before the
era of the chilled steel pillow and other
tools and with the OK team as motive
power. The grain was sown and the
corn planted by hand, the moving all
done with 4 scythe, the cutting Of the
grain with cradle, the thrashing Ell
ther done with a fail or the grain
tramped out by horses on the barn
floor, the time when the hired man
had to be furnished with his ration of
whisky in haying and harvest, when
the hunting and the fishing was of the
best and when society was not both
cred with women's clubs and pink
teas, when the meat supply for the
farm was killed and cured on the farm,
when a supply Of maple sugar was
made every spring and barrel or two
of sorghum molasses in the fall-the
good old days, we call them now, days
whose work, worry and privation we
have forgotten, only remembering
those things which modern progress
and development have deprived us Of.
The years have robbed the farm Of
much of its slavery and in doing so has
destroyed much of its sentiment.

THE BOY AND HIS ACRE.

The boy was given an acre of fairly
good land to work, he to have what he
could raise on it. What did he do
with it? He worked mornings and
evenings until he had put twenty loads
of manure on the land as a starter.
He then plowed and narrowed it down
until it was in as good condition as
a garden. He then planted one-half
Of 1t with the very earliest maturing
potatoes he could find, and the other
half he put into blackseed onions.
The potatoes he cultivated thoroughly
with horse cultivator, the onions
with hand cultivator, hiring some
boys to help him weed out the latter
crop. The season was favorable, and
he sold sixty bushels of early pota-
toes at 81 bushel and go bushels
Of onions later at As cents n bushel,
receiving for his crop total Of S172.5
less S15 for help and 81 for seed. He
will take in the worlds fair this year
and do the Pike to a finish. Other
boys might do just as well if they
would.

SHE WON'T WALK.

There is little doubt that if the
American woman would take more
outdoor exercise she would be much
stronger and healthier. The American
woman does not take kindly to walk
ing as does her English sister, who
makes as serious a business of her
daily walk as she does of her church
going. Nothing like walk to drive
away the megrims and blues. to put
color in the cheek, to bring the sharp
appetite and the refreshing slumber.
The Englishwoman walks regardless
Of any business to call her abroad; the
American will only walk when she
has somewhere to go or can't catch a
street car. But our women are great
on buggy riding and have found out
that walking develops large feet, and
that settles it.

ALFALFA EXPERIMENTS.

The growing of alfalfa is receiving
marked and increasing attention in all
the states east of the Missouri river.
Most of the work being done is expert
mental, small patches tried on different
soils and locations. Enough success
has rewarded these efforts so that the
good work will be more and more ex-
tended. 1t seems to be definitely set
tied that the failures are more trace
able to the soil not being properly in
oculated with the bacterial life essen
tial to the development and health Of
the plant than any other thing. Alfal-
IA is such needed factor in the food
ration of the corn belt region that no
effort to secure it should be left I'M
done. A ten acre field of alfalfa on any
160 acre farm would enable the owner
to perfectly balance all the rations fed
his stock from the hen to the horse
There is no one thing which is so well
worth experimenting with as alfalfa.

THE RURAL MAIL SERVICE.

Reforms move slowly out ON the
farms, but the rural mail service has
proved an exception to this rule. In
just few years, about five, 100000
country people have come to be served
with daily mail. and no greater boon
was ever devised for the farmers of
the country. The first postmaster gen.
eral who was intrusted with a small
appropriation to experiment with In
this line was so opposed to the scheme
on general principles that one of the
first routes he laid out was in the
mountain district of a southern state
where the people make moonshine
whisky and can't read or write,
where of course the rural mail was a
dead failure. Later it was tried in
more civilized communities with entire
success and has steadily grown into
its present enormous proportions.
