EDWARDS-WooD co.
LOSES AGAIN

The Edwards Wood Co. again
lost their fight with the insur-
ance company in the famous
Denbigh elevatorcase. The deal
involves something like $780,
600. The Edwards-Wood Co.
staked the Denbigh elevator man
and the elevator mysterious]y
caught fire several years ago. 1t
was supposed that several thou
sand bushels OF grain burned,
but the insurance company as
certained that the manager had
shipped out a large quantity
which was supposed to be in the
elevator at the time OF the fire.
The elevator man is liable to a
long term in the penitentiary
and the Edwards-Wood Co. is
out a nice sum of money.

ever expect the missive to be
sent, we will have to come to
this. Whether the letter is to be

or whether it is to be delivered
or not, it's all the same. Two
cents an ounce. OF course, the
unsealed circular will go for one

has a chance Of getting a main
line railroad this year which will
push her ahead. She will also
geta $65OO00 beet sugar factory.
The farmers will raise 1000 acres
OF sugar beets. The pulp from
the beets will feed thousands OF
sheep about Kalispell. The far
mers will get SIX a ton for the
beets and each acre will bring
them $50. MIR. Tompkins believes
that the land in Ward county
would raise good sugar beets.

Green Cut Bone.

| have used a green bone cutter for
over three years, grinding sixty
pounds, more or less, every week, says
a Utah farmer in American Agricultur-
ist. My flock of 100 to $50 chickens
eat the stuff greedily, and if they could
get where am using the machine they
would literally cover it,
The feeding of bones certainly in
creased the number of eggs my hens
laid as well as improved their health.
For period of six months | quit feed
ing bones soon found, however,
that the hens laid fewer eggs and
seemed less thrifty | am unable to
give accurate figures in this case be-
cause thieves took some of the eggs
each day. My experience certainly
justifies me in saying that green cut
bone increases the number of eggs laid,
especially in the winter.

HOW to Keep cheeses.

Edam cheese is best kept on cool
dry shelf If one has buffet in the
kitchen it will keep fresh for some
time if placed thereon. Cheese dishes
with glass or porcelain tops are apt to
cause Edam cheese to sweat. Rogue
fort cheese may be kept out of the win
dow or in a cool closet in jar, but
should first be wrapped in paper tin
fo9 Camembert, Gorgonzola and Brie
should be treated in the same way, but
must be brought in some time before
they are to be used, as the cold air will
make them too dry to serve immediate
ly. American cheese should be wrap
ped in several thicknesses of paper and
kept on the lower shelf in the refrig
orator or in the fresh air food chest.

GRASS LANDS.
Advantages IN the Use of CONNER
ciaI Fertilizers over sfanures.

ciaI Fertilizers over sfanures.
There are some distinct advantages
In the use of commercial fertilizers
over manure for grass lands. In the
first place, the average farmer does not
produce enough stable manure to thor
oughly fertilize all his arabic land and
is obliged to sell some fertilizers.
1t has been found that m3nures, es-
pecially coarse ones. have the effect of
lessening the number of grass plants
on the land, the Jumps of manure suf-
locating, so to speak, many of the
plants and consequently not allowing
the greatest possible yield A good
general rule for the farmer to follow IS
to use bafnyard manure on the corn
crop, vegetables, etc, and apply com
mercial fertilizer to grass land 1t is
always best to apply fertilizers and
manures very literally to the crop pre-
ceding the grass. Then the soil will be
rich enough not to require additional
manurial substances at time of sowing
the grass seed If, however, this has
not been done or il the last crop has
made heavy demands on the soil, fer
filters must be applied at time of
seeding.
If this is done in the spring the fer
tilizer should contain nitrogen as well
as phosphoric acid and potash. A suit
able fertilizer for use in this connec-
tion would be 20 pounds nitrate Of
soda, 200 pounds tankage, 300 pounds
ground bone, 200 pounds sulphate Of
potash.
Top Dressing.
II the soil is in very good state of
fertility when seeded no top dressing
should be needed for one to two years
In fact. liberal top dressing might
make trouble by causing lodging. But
if the land has not been very well pre-
pared or in any case after it has been
seeded, say, two years, top dressing
will no doubt prove profitable
The kind of fertilizers the farmer
should use for top dressing depends on
whether he wants hay to sell which
will bring the highest market price
(timothy) or hay which will be of the
greatest home feeding value Chiefly
clover. In the first case he should use
highly heterogeneous fertilizers, in the
second fertilizers rich III lime, phos-
phoric -acid and potash, especially the
latter, because it has been found that

POLYANTHUS NARCISSUS SNOWFLAKE.
narcissus show to perfection. Daffodils,
however, when grown in the grass,
should not be set in formal lines or
squares 1t is good plan in planting
to scatter the bulbs with the hand, aft
err which each bulb can be separately
dibbled into the place where it fell.
A lawn is not the best place for daffo-
dis, because the foliage should not be
cut down after the blossoms are past,
but should be allowed to ripen off grad
ually until quite brown. The effect of
these blossoms on low bank or in an
orchard in spring is very beautiful.
When cultivated in pots or boxes daft
fodils should not be subjected to fire
heat except those already mentioned
0he polyanthus narcissi of the earlier
blooming varieties as bearing slight
forcing.
For balcony in spring, where they
can be grouped with pots of hardy
ferns, daffodils are delightful. A glass
porch or a cold greenhouse can also be
decorated with the golden blossoms.

THE LiME-OlL MIXTURE.
One of the Newer Preparations For
Spraying the San Jose Scale.

Spraying the San Jose Scale.
A mixture which / have not used,
but which is highly recommended by
Professor c. P. Close, horticulturist to
the Delaware station. is combination
of kerosene and ''limoid" Limoid is
a finely ground carefully hydrated
pure magnesium lime" very light
without grit and smooth to the touch.
1t seems to absorb and combine with
kerosene into an even. thin paste. The
directions are: Pour the kerosene into
a barrel. and for each gallon stir in
four pounds of limoid keeping the
mixture IN motion until it forms a thin.
sloppy mass. In case a little kerosene
separates out sprinkle little more
limoid to absorb it. TO this add wa
ter in quantity equal to the kerosene,
stir it vigorously to get it well mixed,
then add as much water as is needed
to obtain the desired percentage and
pump the mixture back into itself to
form a thorough emulsion. 1T is then
a smooth mixture which flows as free
ly as water through vermoreI or 9th
er nozzle provided it is well agitated
and no foreign matter gets in"
This kerosene-limoid, reduced SO that
1t contained 20 and % per cent kero-
sene, has been used effectively against
dormant scales in March and early
April without injury to trees of any
kind 1t has been used, reduced to 10
per cent kerosene. as a summer wash.
which killed ''all crawling young ones,
a few old ones and a very large pro-
portion of intermediate sizes" Crude
oil cannot be used, as it forms sticky
clots when water is added to the limoid
combination.
To the summer wash containing 10
per cent kerosene one quart of rosin
soap in twenty five gallons of mixture
added greatly to its effectiveness. Ros-
in soap is made by dlssolving five
ounces of rosin in one quart of kero-
sene and one ounce of hard soap in one
quart of water Combine the two mix
lures and churn with a pump about
five minutes until smooth white
emulsion Is formed. The Kerosene and
rosin and soap and water solutions
can be made up as stock and combined
as needed.
This mixture is worth a careful trial.
1t is much cheaper than the soluble
oils, and in my opinion the oils are the
most reliable Of all the scale killers.
They get through or under even the
most resistant forms and penetrate

ing other than oil will reach the insects
which develop at the tips Of the twigs
and get upon the young apple and pear
fruit, and it is claimed for the 10 per
cent kerosene limoid and rosin mixture
that it will cure just that condition
which SO directly affects the value of

Glowing Blossoms on the Green

are so clever in calculating the exact
time that the first bud will unfold as

Poultry Pickings.

Charcoal pulverized and mixed with
soft foods aids digestion and is an ex-
cellent preventive of disease.
In feeding young chickens the meal
must be mixed dry and GRUMPY, since
it tends to cause illness if fed too wet.
Sour milk and buttermilk are excel
lent to use Ia mixing up the soft food
for the poultry.
Never grease hen that is sitting, for
il grease gets on the egg it closes the
pores through which the confined chick
gets its air, and the consequence is
death.
