MOTOR POWER.

Make tho Auto Saw Wood, Do the

a new use for the automobile is urg-
ed by 4 Farm Journal writer. use
which is better than killing folks. Here
is The idea:
1t is well known fact that the mo-
tor of an automobile can be operated
without moving the carriage. In this
connection. if one lives in a sheep dis
trict and happens to own gasoline
runabout, he can shear sheep to good
advantage.
Simply buy the parts of two sheep
shearing machines, or. in other words,
get two clipper heads and long flexible
shafts, and drive both from one pulley
by means Of Il belt on the motor fly
wheel The details may vary some
what with different types of motors.
When sheuring time comes. take IL
man with you and drive to the sheep
farms. On arrival put ON belt, oil up
and you are ready for business. Car
ry an extra set of knives and sharpen
er. An extra clipper head for horses
might also come in handy. In this
manner two men can shear more sheep
than Il dozen can in the old way and
do it better. for you get all of the wool
and cannot cut the sheep.
Should Il farmer go TO the trouble of
owning an auto-well, he should make
it do his washing. saw wood. cut feed.
or, in fact, do any work that an engine
is supposed 10 do.

winter Forcing of Rhubarb.

In forcing rhubarb i'll IA house cellar
during the winter the best results were
secured from roots grown but one sum
mer in the open ground. Older roots
have proved less satisfactory. The
roots were set out in spring just as
soon as possible after frost was out of
the ground. They were dug in the late
fall in clumps and allowed to freeze
solid before putting in the cellar.
Generally speaking, the roots begin
to produce edible shoots within five
weeks after they have been put into
the cellar and continue in bearing for
about five weeks. After the roots are
put in place on the floor of the cellar
or on specially made benches they are
thoroughly watered with warm water,
the soil being kept moist, but never
wet. 1t is easy to water too much. An
overabundant supply of water results
In light cololed stalks, which are lack

NEXT HOG CROP.
Autuunn Preparations For the Pigs
of the Coming season.


The cold, rainy months are almost
here, The times that try both man and
beast The farmer who intends rearing
a drove OF pigs which will be narrowed
during March OF April should prepare
for the changeable and severe weather
soon to come. Two things especially
deserve notice. The first is the sanitary
surroundings of our brood sows. When
perfect sanitation is secured much has
been done toward the insured healthi-
ness of the mothers and the offspring.
Do away with the old time method of
allowing the SOW to sleep ina straw
pile or in damp manure and furnish
NICE clean, dry quarters for her. She
glad to give you her best when it
comes narrowing time. Make her quar-
tiers in such Il way that no draft will
come upon her, but still provide plenty
of good ventilation. These precautions,
though they may seem simple, are VIC
lated every year by hundreds of farm
erS, and few ever know why they are
so unsuccessful. \ matter Of prime
Importance it is that the food consum-
ed be of a growing nature rather than
fattening. Many farmers throw out
one bushel of corn after another to
their sows, and this is all they get ex-
cept the water they drink. 1t is well
known by farmers that corn is fatten-
ing, and yet hundreds persist in feed
ing it when they know results exactly
contrary from what is desired are the
only logical outcome. OF course we
cannot condemn the use Of corn, but
something must be fed that will bal
ance against it. For this | know of
nothing better than good warm bran
slop with an occasional mixture of sue
culent roots-Ohio Farmer.

There are two methods of dealing
with sections more or less unfinished
namely, feeding back extracted honey
to secure their completion and selling
them at reasonable price in the local
market For most beekeepers the lat
ter course is probably preferable. All
sections not three-fourths completed
should be emptied by setting supers of
them over colonies lacking in stores,

This is the time of year when our
financial writer's and city editors figure
out how great is the amount of wealth
produced by the farmers during the
year and also congratulate them upon
the possession of so vast sum Of
money. Such figuring is largely bosh,
and its annual repetition is wearisome.
1t would be just as sensible to assume
that the annual output of manufac-
tured steel represented the annual
earnings Of steel manufacturers. No
body IS silly enough to do that, but the
Old idea clings to many city people
that farm products are a free gift of
nature to the farmer. Many time
IN individual instances they represent
only the conversion of one form of
property into another form without a
dollar Of net profit. The bushel Of
wheat that is marketed represents in
Vestment in seed, fertilizer, employees

lattened steer represents corn that al
ready has been credited up as SO much

SCHOOL GARDENS.
A Practical Project That should
Bring SpIea,lid Results.

IA AFNcticHA iEG4NNs That Should
Bring SpIealid Results.
BY B. r. GALLOT&T, chief OF the bu-
reau of pant industry.
During The past Jew years there has
been a growing interest in school gar,
den work in this country. While the
movement here is comparatively new.
1t has for long time been a feature
of the educational work in continental
Europe. In the heart of city the
work may be an entirely different
thing from what ii is in Il rural or
Eemirlual district. In the city the main
I1ea may be an aesthetic one. combiu-
ed with moral ana physical training.
The general trend of the work in this
country is practical, so the its appl-
cation viii eventually have more or
less effect OH our Industrial develop
ment. Manual training has been made
a feature in many Of our schools, and
no one will deny that valuable results
have been obtained from it.
What They Nay Accomplish.
Agriculture in its broadcast sense is
the primary basis Of wealth in this
country, and it seems essential that eff
forts should be made in our education
nj system 10 bring early to the mind
of the child facts which will be OF
value as emphasizing the importance
and necessity of agricultural work.
There is no better way to do this than
through Il well managed and well con-
Quoted system of school garden train
ing. Aside from the fact that the in
terest of the child is early awakened
in an industry which means much to
the future prosperity OF this country,
the work is valuable in broadening
lines of thought, enlarging the scope Of
the child,s observation and improving
its physique.
The First School Garden.
To Boston belongs the honor of es-
tablishing in 1891 the first school gar
den at the George Putnam Grammar
school. II was Il garden of ferns and
wild flowers. In 1900 individual plats
for growing flowers and vegetables
were first cultivated. The Boston Nor
NAL school in 1901 established the sec
ond garden Of the kind. Eighty chill
dren Of the seventh grade had beds
by 10 feet, the gardens being located
in Il crowded part of the city and every
effort being made to interest the par,
ents. Vegetables were taken home,
and parents were invited to visit the
gardens. As result many home gar
dens were started
