An article in an agricultural journal
referred to the habit of Information as
characteristic of the rodent family. We
hardly think that this statement is
justified While many members Of
this family will remain in their homes
during extreme cold weather, they can
be hardly said to hibernate The rab-
bit, the squirrel, the rats and mice are
active all winter long. The gopher
chipmunk and ground hog do hibernate
after a fashion, but hardly in the same
manner that does the bear Field mice
are just as active in winter as during
the summer and usually in conjunction
with the rabbit do more mischief dur
ing the winter than at any other sea-
son, as many man finds out who does
not properly protect his fruit trees.

The greater portion Of the prairie
west may as well accept and face the
fact that for half century at least
the dirt road will be the common high
way Of the country. This dirt road is
for period Of at least eight months
in the year the best road in the world
and the money and work spent on the
roads should be with reference to
making it as passable as possible for
the other four months. This will be
best accomplished by thorough drain

mile macadam highway is an i'm
possibility from financial point alone

No one thing will help the cause of
good roads more than the development
Of local public spirit among the mem
bers Of the community which is direct
ly interested in such improved high
ways. AS it is too often now, small
break in bridge which any man could
fix in FIVE minutes causes the discover
err to travel three miles to get road
boss to fix it at an expense to the dis
trict Of dollar or more. The public
spirit which we refer to would have
made the man fix it himself and made
no fuss about it. Some day men who
own good farms are already do
ing twill take real pride in the
highways which border their farms and
will cheerfully give of their labor such
work as is needed to keep them In
good condition a good example in this
line is a great factor in influencing any
community, for it is true that good
example is just as contagious as bad
one

Natures method Of restoring lost fer
tility to wornout lands Is through the
medium of grass and trees. 1t is a
slow process and may be seen In OPP
Grafton on countless thousands Of acres
in the east and the south on lands
which were once wheat and cotton
fields. On most Of this land she works
by the tree method, covering these de-
pleted and starved acres with confer
and deciduous trees, with vine and
shrub. Little by little humus and fer
tility are restored to the soil, and at
the end of seventy-five years the forest
may be again removed and man go in
to the soil robbing business again.

A problem on the farm in these days
Of scarce and high priced labor worth
constant study is how to substitute the
horse for the man. The horse one can
get and keep: the man one can some
times get and want to get rid Of The
manufacturers of machinery are help
ing the farmer out on this line in many
ways with the manure spreader, the
four and six horse cultivator, disk,
plow and drag, with the two row corn
cultivator and other tools which easily
double the effective working ability of
man. Up to date farming is becom-
ing more question of intelligent ma
nipulation Of intricate machinery and
intelligent direction and management
Of farm work than physical labor. Thus
it is good investment to send your
boy who is to become the farmer Oh
/ the future to take a course in farm
mechanics at some agricultural college.
1t is one thing to get the good COW,
another to give her proper accommo-
datiOnS and care, but the most impOr-
tant thing Of all is to learn how to
feed her so as to get her to do her best
work at the pail On an average we
believe that there is a loss of not less
| than 80 per cent in the butter product
of our western dairies owing to the
one thing Of giving the COW an i'm
proper and unbalanced ration Corn is
the thing on which COW keepers fall
down. 1t is not milk producing ra-
ton, and the more the COW eats the
worse she is off, Corn fodder is fair
milk ration; corn silage a still better
one, but still unbalanced, and must in
either case be balanced up with clover
hay, bran, oilmeal, gluten feed or oats
and, best Of all, alfalfa hay. If the
farm produces little but corn, sell it
and buy these other feeds If the COW
| is to be made profitable.

LEXINGTON, VA. Nov. S.-There

handing improved conditions by last
Monday and threatening TO resign in
body with the alternative of dis.
missing the entire class, is generally
believed General Ship, however, is
noncommittal. The cadets seem to be
divided in sentiment and without any
fixed purpose, Some of them express
themselves as satisfied with the food,
while others complain bitterly in pri-
waite conversation with acquaintance.
