Land for the Homeseeker.

Visitors returning home from tours
of different sections of the east report
that everywhere homeseekers are look
ing to the Pacific northwest for future
locations, says Robert Montgomery,
editor of the Puyallup Valley Tribune.
Washington is we'll known as land OF
diversified interests and the tide OF i'm
migration is directed this way. Rail
road men anticipate greater demands
for transportation of families and colo
nists seeking an ideal country for home
building. The general correspondence
of residents having friends and rela-
tives hunting places for homes or bust
ness ventures has become voluminous.
Washington is land of farm max
ers The last report published by the
state bureau of statistics shows there
are 33,202 farms in the state. These
cultivated tracts comprise S,499,297
acres and represent, according to the
Post Intelligencer, combined valua-
ton of $19,857, 900 for improvements
and buildings. Yet the possibilities 9
agricultural development have hardly
been exploited. No section has an
overcrowded population. The farms
are generally large and surrounded by
great areas of native country owned
by the government or state.
The area open for settlement is

large enough to support many thou
sands of people. The state bureau
gives 9,485,194 acres in the list of I'M
appropriated lands, of which 4,464, 1873
acres have been surveyed. If this great
acreage was reclaimed and made into
homes it would still leave an immense
country to be developed and divided
into small tracts. The state lands held
for revenues for public buildings,
schools and colleges comprise 668,OOO
acres. These may be leased for a mini
mum price of 10 cents an acre yearl
with the leases extending for five years.
The minimum sale price is only $40 an
acre.
Every enterprising man desiring
home can get it for little labor in the
state of Washington. Farms cannot be
picked up anywhere without some capt.
tai and industry. All homes must be
made, here as elsewhere, but the in
ducements for building are greater
than in many districts of the east
There is abundant room for thousands
of families, who may be Independent
from the results of their own labors.
Money is not so great force in max
ing capital as honesty and industry
For the ambitious and energetic man
who wants home and independence
in land of health and plenty Wash
ington offers superior inducements.

How Much Seed Wheat Per Acre?

At our Ohio experiment Statlon 10
different tests, with 5 different Varle-
ties of wheat, extending over a period
of 10 years, show a gradual increase
of crop from 1875 bushels per acre,
grown from three pecks of seed, to an
average of 21.88 from 9 pecks, says 1.
b. Terry in the Practical Farmer. In
8 of the 10 tests 10 pecks gave larger
WELD than a less amount OF seed, and
in only one test in the IS did pecks
give the largest yield. And stlll DUR
ing all these years, and as many more
before them, we have not soWn more
than about or pecks OF seed wheat
Der acre. Does it necessarily follow
that we would have done better TO
have used more seed? l think not.
There are other matters to be taken
into account before deciding the
amount of seed required. The impor-
tant ones are the fertility of the land,
the time of sowing and the condition
of the seed bed. You will notice that
the averages given by the experiment
station are not high. And perhaps the
wheat was not put in early; we are
not told. If the land is fertile enough
to grow a large crop, and the seed is
sown early enough, and the seed ped
is right, to make large fall growth,
I would not care to put in more than
6 pecks of good seed. Under these
conditions the plants should stool out
so as to make a full stand. But, OF
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1904-10-15

course. this is some what of a matter
of luck, in the way of favorable
weather, but not nearly as much as
some seem to think. In 2 of the Is
experiments the land could be called
fertile enough, judging by the yield,
and what is the result? Six pecks OF
seed gave 1888 bushels of wheat,
pecks gave 1857, gave 1912, 9 gave
35.46, 10 gave 1850. 1t is fair to say
there was no profit in this case from
using more than 6 pecks of seed. In
the other case pecks gave 35.17,
pecks 1851, 8 pecks 35, peckks 1888,
10 pecks 1888. 1t looks on the face
of this experiment as though 10 pecks
of seed was none too much, even on
rich land; but as it was last year,
and Hessian flies had been troubling,
1 presume wheat was sown rather
late. And as 8 pecks gave less yield
than 6, it is possible that variations
in conditions other than the amount
of seed had something to do with the
increase from 7, and 10 pecks. This
is not written with the slightest inten-
ton of trying to belittle the expert
ments, but simply to try and get at
the practical truth to be gathered
from them. You may safely conclude
that if for any reason you SOW late,
then more seed should be used to
make up for lack of time for stooling,
and the same if the seed bed has not
been handled so it is fine, firm and
moist, and also if the ground is rather
poor. There are two other important
matters that we have found connected
with this light seeding. On rich land
the crop stands up better, and the
seeding of clover has better chance.
While 8 or 10 pecks of seem may be
best under some conditions, just as
firmly believe that pecks are enough
in other cases. The above may help
you to decide how much to SOW on
your land. And remember, also, that
all seed should be plump, full sized
grains, unbroken by threshing. This
will decidedly increase the yield, and,
of course, less seed per acre will be
needed.

Utility of Breeds.

No matter how a breed may be
bred for plumage the grand test of
breed is by farmers. Fanciers may
boast of their skill, and bring forth
breeds with brilliant colors, but the
farmer is the one who puts them to
the practical test, and if they do not
pass the ordeal of the farm they will
sooner or later sink out of sight. The
farmer is the customer of the breeder,
and his influence is greater and more
important. The breed that succeeds
in finding a place in the affections of
the farmer is the one that possesses
hardness, reproduction and market
quality. Ornamental breeds may do
for the show room, but they will ex-

son why the useful bird should not be

our established breeds have stood the

In Cold Storage.-In the spring OF
1896, in one of the largest cold stor-
age houses in st. Louis, some OF the
very choicest apples examined were
a number of barrels of Rome Beauty
which had been grown and packed In
an orchard in Southern Illinois. The
fruit was fresh, crisp, juicy and finely
favored. The time of observation was
about April LIST. We are satisfied that
more depends on picking, packing and
storing the fruit at the right time than
is commonly supposed. Pick when
hard. firm and fairly we'll colored and
place in first-class cold storage at
once, and if the storage is properly
managed we fully believe the Rome
Beauty will be found to be an excel
lent keeper and first-class market
able apple.
Oriqin of the Rome Beauty.-ln the
Ohio state horticultural report Tor
1889, page 207, may be found the fol-
lowing:
In the fall of 1876 Mr. Joel Gillett
moved from Marietta, Ohio, to Law
renee county, and settled in Rome
township. He brought with him ap-
pie trees from Putnam's nursery anu
heeled them in for the winter. They
contained such varieties as were then
opagated-Roxbury, Russell, Rhode
Island Greening, Long Island P1ppln
Blue Pearmain, Winter Seek-no-fur-
Their an dsomeothers. In the spring
of 1917 Mr.. Gillett, his son, Alanson,
and his son-in-law, Thomas Gardner,
set out the trees in an orchard on the
farm now owned by l.. d. Morrison,
and there was one seeding tree found
among the lot which Mr.. Gillett threw
out and said to his son: "Alanson.
there is a democrat; you may nave
that" Alanson Gillett set out the
Seeding tree 1t grew and turned
out to be the original tree, and some
years afterward when it bore fruit
that was found to be large, fine
favored apple and a good keeper, 1t
was agreed by the neighbors to name
it Rome Beauty.
Size and Color.-On young or we'll
cultivated and fortified trees the fruit
is quite large; if not too many on the
tree, about as large as Northern Spy.
The very large fruit, the long stems,
and the early ripening are the reasons
why it drops SO much. The color IS
a yellow ground, streaked with req
and pink of a very attractive comb
nation and making it really beauty,
and as my sweet little slx-year-old
Kansas niece says: "That Wome
Beauty is my favorite apple" IT. H.

Poultry experts claim that it costs
dollar year to keep a hen, and that
the average price of eggs to the pro-
Queer is II cents per dozen. It
therefore follows that a hen has to
lay 100 eggs year to pay for her
keep, and that if any profit results
to her keeper it must be for eggs laid
In excess of that number. There are
as many hens that lay less than it
costs to keep them as there are that
lay more. Carefully kept records have
proved this statement. To which class
do your hens belong? If you cannot
give positive answer to this aues
ton it is high time to do some ascer-
tanning. Laying capacity is as much
the result of breeding and selection
as is the speed in horses and butter
yields in dairy COWS. Yet poultry on
the average farm is allowed to breed
promiscuously, and the tendency is in
the wrong direction. There are ex-
ceptions but they are not as numer-
Gus as the welfare Of tn industry de-
mands. Like begets like, and it is
possible to raise a 200-egge hen: ave
more than that, it has been done by
by many, and will be done by more i'm
the future. 1t takes some extra pains.
little more work, and a good deal
more thinking than it does to let chem
run the good old way, but progress
and profit making demand these ex-
ertions in every walk of life.
