During a recent trip we noted what
was really a great curlosity-vlz, a
twenty acre field OF sugar cane grow
ing In the north. Thirty years ago
the growing Of a patch OF sugar cane
wal q common thing with tho pioneer
settlers. In every community would
be found a mill for expressing the
juice and boiling II down into mo.
lasses, which TO a large extent fur.
nished the sweetcnlng used by tho
family Of the early settler. As sugar
decreased In price, less and less of
the cane was raised, until now, az
above stated. II Is a rare thing 10 find
any sorghum grown for this purpose.
While the sorghum il high in saccha.
rine contents, It was found after al
most endless experimenting that IL
was impossible TO convert the mo.
%lasses, which was easily made, into q
graduated sugar. While sorghum has
ceased TO have any special value as a
farm crop-as a producer Of slrup-it
still has ono great value as a forage
crop, forming a most valuable hog
feed during the late summer and early
fall in connection with n field OF rape.
More OF II should be grown for this
purpose than there is.

Gently by a successful farmer This

OF this expression becomes apparent at
once. Grass is natures bcnedlctIon

and by grass we mean clover, alfalfa
and blue grass.
Few farmers understand the value OF
land kent in grass as applied to pro.
duction OF meat And milk. While we
cannot accurately estimate II, IT Ia safe
to say that the net profits connected
with good pastures are greater on the
average than net profits connected
with producing any Of our common
cereals, An acre OF good blue grass
pasture devoted TO the production OF
meat or milk will give a man, at pres.
ent prices for such produce, not less
than $40 per acre.

TILE POOR STAND or CopN.


A friend asks us whether tho poor
fields Is attributable wholly to poor
seed. 1t Is not. There arc many agcn-
cles which tend to impair tho vitality
OF seed and prevent It's healthy and
vigorous development Among these
may be mentioned too early planting
when the weather Is so cold as to be
entirely unfavorhble to the termination
OF the seed. Then there Is deep plant
Ing. With our modern planters sufii-
cient n r Ii not used to prevent the
corn being planted at too great a depth.
It Is a common thing to go out into a
cornfeld and flnd corn struggling to
reach the surface where II has been
buried at a depth Of from four to Eve
inches. When the ground becomes
slightly crusted corn under these con.
dltions hardly ever reaches the surface.
Then there are the raynges Of the mice,
gophers and crows. which cut no small
figure In preventing a good stand OF
corn. Primarily, however, the main
cause OF a poor stand OF corn Ia poor
seed, and this. too, IL one which IL
wholly within the power OF the grower
to prevent. Hero IL a short recipe for
avoiding this difficulty; Pick the seed
corn not later than the 10Th Of October,
hang II up where II will get thorough
ly dried out and then keep II where II
will be free from frost until needed for
planting. IL this should DO followed

would almost wholly disappear from

The importance OF gathering the seed
corn from the field before 1t is struck
by the frost Is so great that vi read
ers will excuse us if we refer to 1t
often as the surest method of securing
good seed corn and 80 a good stand Of
corn next year. Gather the corn the
first part Of October, hang in a well
ventilated place for It to dry out and
then store for the winter. Seed corn
