FOR THE SMALL GARDEN.
Outdoor Hotbed Which May Be
Established with Little
Trouble.

A very practical hotbed may be con-
structed for use in small garden. The
bed should be placed In the south or
southeast side of fence or building
where 1t will be protected from north
winds and receive the full direct rays
of the sun. Dig trench IS inches deep
and as wide and long as the size Of
the bed desired; 4x6 feet is usually suf-
flcient. Make frame of boards that
will set in the north side. leaving one
foot above the, surface of the ground,
and south side but six inches above
ground, as shown in accompanying cut.
This will allow sufficient slope to the
sashes to insure its being rainproof.
Cover the top with sash (c), made
with Sx10 glass. Fill the bed with one
foot of coarse horse manure (a), which
has been cured under shelter and forked
over number of times to insure its
being of the same fineness throughout.
Tramp down solidly on bottom of bed,
and putting on sash allow 1t to remain

about four days until 1t heats, and
again cools to 80 degrees. Then put in
six inches of rich soil (b). Sandy loam
is best. but II that is not available use
a clay soil with sand added and mixed.
Do not pack the soil firmly, but allow
1t to remain In loose, open layer.
Again cover bed and allow It to
remain day or two until the soil
is thoroughly warmed and the tenn
perature evenly established. Plant the
seed in rows four to six inches apart.
Cover lightly and water thoroughly.
Considerable care is necessary in at
tending bed of this kind, says the Or
ange Judd Farmer. Give it all the sun
possible, and when the sun falls direct
ly upon the sash raise one edge a few
inches to allow the air to change. Avoid
allowing the cold air to blow directly
upon the plants. Water heavily rather
than frequently, soaking the ground at
least once week, or as frequently as the
surface becomes dry. Stir the surface
soil frequently, and do not allow It to
bake into hard cake. Be sure that it is
loose enough for the tender plants to
push through the surface Some plants
require more heat than others, and the
bed must he kept more closely covered
Lettuce, radishes and cucumbers re-
quire cooler beds, about 65 to S5 degrees,
while tomatoes, melons, etc, should be
kept at higher temperature. When the
plants are sufficiently matured, they may
be transplanted in the bed or removed
to open ground and grown to maturity

THE VALUE OF BRAN.
Some Facts Regarding the Food Prop
critics Of Wheat Bran for Gen.
eraI Feeding Purposes.

In an article contributed to the North
western Miller, Prof. Harry Snyder
says that for producing beef, milk or
for general feeding purposes, wheat
bran Is one of the cheapest and best
foods that can be used. While there
are other feeding stuffs which contain
more protein, none contain their pro-
tein associated with other valuable nu-
tritive substances in the same propor-
ton as found in bran. Bran is one of
the safest foods that can be fed to farm
animals. 1t does not cause digestive
disorders, even when fed in large
amounts. It can be combined with and
made to improve any kind of feeding
stun. 1t Is alike valuable for beef or
dairy animals, and can be fed to all
kinds of live stock.
Some of the special characteristics of
bran and its merits as an animal food
are worthy of consideration Wheat
bran is distinctively an animal food
and not human food. In the process
OF milling the bran is removed because
1t cannot be milled with the flour. and
furthermore, the removal is necessary
because 1t is indigestible as a human
food. The human stomach is not made
nor Intended to digest bran. but farm
animals, as cattle, sheep and horses,
nave stronger powers of digestion and
utilize wheat bran to advantage. Bran
occupies the same place as an animal
FOOD which flour does as human food.
Wheat bran consists of the outer lay
ers OF the wheat kernel, which are re-
moved in the roller process of milling.
From IL to Is per cent. of the wheat
as milled Is covered with bran. Average
wheat bran contains about IS per cent.
OF protein, four to five per cent. Of fat,
and So per cent. of carbohydrates.
Wheat bran contains about eight per
cent. of the fiber, from one third to one
half OF which is capable of being digest.
ed and utilized by farm animals.
AS far as chemical composition is con-
cerned. bran is not liable to be deficient
In digestible protein fat or carbohy-
drates, the most valuable nutrients for
Feeding purposes. Compared with other
grains and farm products, wheat bran
contains larger amount of protein and
rat than corn, oats. rye. barley, spelt,
or the various varieties of wheat. These
grains usually contain from ten to IA
per cent. of fat. Thus it will be seen
that as far as chemical composition is
concerned wheat bran compares favora-
bly, with average farm grains.

MAKE CUTTINGS EARLY.
Simple and Easy Matter to Propa-
gate Your Own Grapevines,
Currants, Gooseberries, Etc.

1t is very simple and easy matter to
propagate your own grapevines, cur
rants, gooseberries and most ornamen-
tai shrubs. If little skill is used these
plants may be readily propagated from
cuttings made late in the autumn after
the leaves are off and preferably before
cold weather comes on, says a writer in
Farm and Home.
Well-ripened mature wood, which has
grown during the past summer, should
be selected and cut into lengths of six
to ten inches, The base of these should
be cut squarely just below the bud. They
can be set in the fall in nursery rows
two feet apart or tied in bundles of con-
venient size, with buds all one way and
stored in the cellar or buried in the
ground through the winter.
When spring comes most of the cut
tings will have put on a callous where
the butt comes in contact with the moist
earth or sawdust, in which they have
been buried. Even the roots may have
started from some of them. AS early as
the soil can be worked and before the
buds of the cuttings begin to grow, they
should be planted out in good garden
soil. The soil should be well worked,
the rows lined out and the cuttings
stuck, at an angle of As degrees, down to
the top bud.
They should be given clean frequent
cultivation and hoed often to keep down
all wheels during the summer. Usually
an excellent growth will be made. Will
lows, poplars and some other varieties
of trees, Mariana and Golden Beauty
plums, some varieties of ounces, spirea,
privet, barberry, mock orange and most
varieties of shrubs can be propagated in
this way.

Low-Headed Trees.

The old-style orchard was often very
high headed, with the limbs well up out
of the way. The idea was to train the
tree so high that teams could be driven
under and to keep the limbs above the
reach of cattle. Now that these items
are of less Importance to most orchard
lists, the tendency is in the opposite di-
rection, until j. II. Hale asks pertinent
ly: whats the use of trunk, any
way?' 1t may be said In favor of the
low down tree that the fruit may be
picked at considerably less cost and is
not so likely to be blown off by the
wind. Spraying is also less difficult.
It Is In many ways the better tree for
those who do not cultivate directly un-
der large trees and who keep cattle
away from the orchard. In a rev of
the sturmer apples the trees were cut
back much shorter than in many or
chards, consequently the limbs are
sturdy enough to hold the fruit without
bending. These trees averaged about
four cases TO the tree. The trees branch
out about eight or ten inches from the
ground.-American Cultiyator.

Milk Consumption

The milk consumption of the country
as a whole is estimated at about one
half pint per day per person. This
would be greatly increased were people
sure of the cleanliness of the milk they
are offered. In the large cities this dis

OLD VERMONT.

The general elections held
throughout the state of Vermont
last week resulted in a sweeping
victory for the temperance ele-
ment, only about forty towns in
the state voting for license and
in many of those the vote of the
license party was so close that
it was almosta victory for the
prohibitionists, the license vote
being cut down greatly. At
the last election the TEN
perance element lost ground
heavily and il was freely pre-.
dicted that old Vermont was
ready to go back to the saloon,
but the result of last weeks bal
lot clearly demonstrated that the
people of that state liks sobriety
and decency the best.

RIGHTS GUARDED.

The state of Kansas has valu.
able oils fields and their value
is just beginning to be ap.
preciated when the fight with
the Standard Oil trust is on.
North Dakota has no oil fields,
but it has in its Ignite coal, vast
deposits of fuel, which are bound
to be of the greatest Importance
in the future. The state itself
owns considerable coal land, and
it should be the aim of the
authorities to preserve the
states control over the coal de-
posits which it owns, so that
wemay have in the future
some refuge from the pos
sible oppression of fuel barons
who seek to enrich themselves
at our expense. The coal lands
of the state may never be sold,
but they may be leased. Every
lease should have a good stout
string to it, and the string
should be in the hands of the
state. e.-Grand Forks Herald.
