are with difficulty made profitable on
such crops as corn and wheat, their
profitable use for a leguminous crop.
such as cowpeas or clover, which are
known to be able to gather a large part
of their nitrogen from the air, would
naturally be much more difficult. Acid
phosphate has been found to increase
greatly the yields of both the hay and
the peas, but especially the yield of peas.
One of the most economical ways in
which to improve a poor soil has been
found to be the growing of cowpeas,
fortified with acid phosphate. A good
plan in the case of a wornout soil is to
plant the peas in rows, using acid phos-
plate at the rate of 800 pounds to the
acre. The peas should be cultivated at
least twice. The seed can be picked or
the crop can be pastured off to good
advantage. In order to derive perman-
ent benefit from this method of soil i'm
provement it is not advisable to remove
the crop as hay unless the equivalent in
stable manure be returned to the land.
The pea roots, stubble and fallen leaves
contain only about one-third of the
total plant food gathered by the crop,
and could be expected to give only tenn
porary improvement.-Tennessee Agri-
cultural Experiment Station Bulletin.

BREEDING MORE HORSES.
The Western Men r E~nterprisinE
Enough to See That There Is a
Good Profit in This Business.

The west is waking up to the improve
ment of their horses just as they did
ten year ago with their beef cattle.
They find they car grow draft horses
on alfalfa that develop large size and
fine action cheaper than in any other
country or cline. A good draft horse
that sells at 5000 costs but little more
than a steer to raise. There are sew
eral large breeding studs of pure-bred
Percherons in Kansas, Colorado and the
west that have demonstrated the sue
cess of draft horse raising.
Alfalfa with very little oats and corn
is producing ton horses in the west
cheaper and faster than in any other
country. They can breed draft horses
out there and mature the geldings fit
ted for market, keeping the mares for
breeding as worth double as much as
the geldings. These western men have
the courage and the money to buy the
best draft stations, and the horses have
no trouble with the Texas cattle fever
or the hog cholera. The demand for
good draft horses is SO strong that the
horse buyers can see a big draft horse
for 1000 miles.-Live Stock Journal,

POULTRY YARD NOTES.

1t is not necessary that the poultry
plant to be attractive looking should be
either expensive or elaborate in its
features.
Neatness pays, because neatness in
construction and arrangement means
completeness; and completeness in
equipment always contributes toward
convenience, and hence toward economy
in labor.
Three essentials to success in poultry
keeping: A good location, strong
healthy fowls of IN early maturing
variety, interest in the work that will
lead one to be ever on the alert for help
full knowledge.
A poultry plant, whether large or
small, whether consisting of a single
house, or of many houses, should be
neat, and both the arrangements of the
houses and the arrangement of furnish
ings in the houses should be convenient.
Judging the causes of failure by what
we see and know of many failures we
may affirm with positiveness that The
three most common causes of failure | n
poultry keeping are: Lack OF expert
ence, lack of capital, lack of business
ability.-Farm Poultry.

OF WEEDS.
Prove That the Use of Chemicals
Produces Good Results.

Much interest has been shown at q
number of the agricultural experiment
stations in the possibility of weed de-
struction by means of chemicals. As
long ago as 1895 it was found at the YER
mont station that the orange hawk
weed, a serious pest in pastures and
meadows, could be destroyed without
injury to the grass by sowing salt over
the land at the rate of 8 1000 pounds per
acre. Many experiments have since
been conducted at the same station with
other chemicals for the eradication OF
weeds in walks, drives. courts, etc.
Among the chemicals tested were salt,
copper sulphate, kerosene, ~liver-of-sul-
phur, carbolic acid, arsenic and salsoda,
arsenate of soda, and two commercial
wned killers, the active principle OF
which apparently was arsenic. The
weeds which it was sought to destroy
we'e plaintains, dandefion, chicory,
ragweed, knotweed and various grasses.
ALI the chemicals were applied in solu-
ton except the salt. AS in the case OF
the hawkweed experiments, salt was
found efficient in destroying all the
weeds when applied dry and in large
quantity. When salt is used for this
purpose adjacent lawns should be pro-
tected against washing, or they may be,
Injured. Crude carbolic acid, one pint
In four pints of water, applied at the rate
of eight gallons per square rod, was very
efficient. The various arsenical prep
arations proved valuable as weed de-
stroyers, and choice between them was
largely a matter of expense. All things
considered, the arsenate of soda and the
carbolic acid solutions proved the most
valuable chemicals for weed destruction
under the conditions of these expert
ments.-Farmers' Review.

END VIEW OF FEED RACK.

cause the wool buyer does not care to pey
wool price for dirt, but because it in
creases the labor and expense of pre-
pairing the wool for manufacture, and
also Injuries the fiber itself to a greater
or less extent. Some kinds, as the chatf
Of timothy, are very difficult to remove.
Where any hand picking is necessary to
remove the adhering foreign matter, as
is sometimes the case, the wool in its
raw state must necessarily sell very
low. A little care in such matters may
mean a better opinion of the wool buy
err on the part of the grower and Of the
grower on the part of the buyer, and
several dollars more in the pocket of
the grower when they get through with
their transaction. The accompanying
illustration represents an end view of
a very good and inexpensive form OF
rack for feeding the roughness. If de-
sired a bottom may be put in SO as to
feed the grain in these racks also, but
as a rule, we prefer the plan OF feeding
the grain in troughs made separate
from and independent of the rack for
the roughness. The rack is made about
three feet in height, two feet and six
inches wide and any length desired.
The uprights are made from two by
eight lumber. One slant cut making the
sloping edge for two pieces, there is no
waste in the cutting. The bottom Of
the rack is composed of a twelve-inch
or two siX-inch boards nailed on the out
side of these uprights, as indicated in the
cut. The upper part for receiving the
hay is made by mailing boards on the
sloping edge of the uprights. These
boards should be either shiplap OF have
their edges beveled and fit together so
as to prevent any dirt rafting through
on top of the heads and necks of the
sheep as they eat. If 1t Is desired to put
a bottom in the rack for the feeding of
grain probably the best plan is to make
each side of this bottom into a movable
trough that can be turned owe to dump
out the dirt and litter, as it is not con-
venient to clean troughs so situated in
any other manner. In making a bottom
of this kind, the stationary portion in
the center should be placed above the
troughs, so that any refuse will pass
Into the latter, where 1t may be dumped
out. The troughs may be hung at the
ends by means of a bolt passed through
the end piece and the upright OF the
rack, and be held in place while in use
by means of hooks or by pins placed tc
one side of the bolts.-Prairie Farmer,

What Ia the Granges

With 700,O 900 members in the United
States, it would seem altogether un-
necessary to ask or answer the question.
But this paper may come under the
eye of someone who is not familiar with
It's aims and principles. 1t is an organ
ization Of farmers for their mutual well
fare. Among the specific objects
named in its declaration of purposes are
these: To develop a better and higher
manhood and womanhood among our
selves; to enhance the comforts and at
fractions of our homes; to further CO.
operation; to buy less and produce
more in order to make our farms self
sustaining; to bring producers and con-
| sumers, farmers and manufacturers into
the most direct and friendly relations
possible. The grange is nonpartisan,
yet it's principles underlie all true poll
tics and craftsmanship. 1t believes in
farmers cooperating together in every
legitimate manner for their own protec-
ton and to enhance their mutual inter-
ests.
The order Is called the patrons OF
Husbandry" and the head of the Ma
tional Grange is Hon. Aaron Jones, Of
South Bend, Ind. T~wenty-eight states
have state organizations. Below them
are the county organizations called Po-
mona oranges and below these are the
numerous subordinate oranges. Meet
ings are held of these subordinate
oranges once a month or oftener, where
subjects pertaining to the farmers in
t~erests, social, educational and agri-
cultural, are discussed. Women are on
an equality with men in the grange and
to them not a little of the wonderful sue
cess of the organization is due. Its
purpose may be stated in a word to be:
To uplift the farmer morally, socially,
ed~ucationally and materially.

Grange Fire Insurance.

A recent compilation of these statis-
tics, made by the American Agricultur-
list, shows that at the time these re-
ports were made there was a total Of
$119, 679, 900 in grange insurance. New
York state heads the list with $685.
632, carried in 38,450 policies; Pennsyl-
vania stands next, with $1S,209, 900 in
1888 policies; Michigan is third, with
$12, O00, 900 insurance. In Michigan
there are 20 grange companies, show
ing an average rate during their time OF
existence of 80 cents cost on each 81, 900.
In New York state there are about $50
farmers mutual companies, of which ~
are strictly grange. Some of these COM
panies carry as high as $4,000, 900, and
only two less than 81, 600, 900 in risks.

Two Elements in Success.

The two most important elements IN
poultry success are wholesome food and
cleanliness. All such unwholesome food
as decayed meats, grains or vegetables
must be rigidly excluded from the poul-
try yard, as it can be only a question OF
time when they will cause more or less
serious digestive disorders. Be sure
that all food is such as will really devel-
op and nourish the fowls. Second only
to the kind of food given is the whole
subject Of cleanliness. Both houses and
yards should have a careful, systematic
cleaning at frequent intervals to guard
against all kinds of disease. A regular
system of both cleaning and feeding
should be mapped out and followed,
rain or shine. Clean fowls and clean
food must go hand in hand, and the bet
ter the work is done the greater will be
the success.-Prairie Farmer.

FEED RACK FOR SHEEP
sive Continuance, Recommended
by Highest Authority.

One of ur subscribers asks for a de-
scription of a good sheep rack in which
to feed his sheep. This is a very I'M
portant subject in connection with che
care of sheep, inasmuch as it has to dc
not only with the economical use OF the
feed grown on the farm, but also with
keeping the fleece of the sheep clean and
in a marketable condition. No form oil
rack should be used for the feeding OF
any kind of feed containing chaff or
dirt that will permit the sheep to poke
it's head into the feed Or that will allow
the chaff, dirt or broken leaves to filter
through cracks and fall onto the sheep.
Any such dirt in the wool Injuries the
sale of it very materially, not merely be.
