The latest for motoring is pony skin

most Invaluable for this sport and
since distinguished lady of England
discovered their worth no other ma
terial has been quite so popular, Pony
skin Is a striking novelty. The color
or the fur is of striking reddish
brown, but the shade depends entirely
upon the breed of the colt. The coats
are made on Monte Carlo model with
mum and hat 10 match The mum Is of
extreme size, and is, therefore, unit
Tor any other purpose than motoring.
The full length coats are uSo popular,
ana they are astonishingly cheap.
squirrel is very popular and coats OF
II are sometimes lined with q cheaper
quality OF squirrel The sleeves are
large ana full and they are Il great
protection to one when motoring. The
cape effects are worn considerably, and
sometimes the coats are made minus
sleeves, the cape serving equally as
well. MoOr hats are also pretty ana
they are extremely becoming Much
trimming is used, and II seems as
though the days of the ridiculous cos
tuning for this purpose have passed.

pertinent station furnishes some inter-
esting data upon this subject Last
August IL sprayed portion of po-
tato field located beside one of the
most travelled roads leading into Bur
lington. The soil was welldrained
sandy loan sod, well manured, plowed
in the spring and planted late in May.
Two-thirds OF the piece was sprayed
on Aug. . and Sept. with standard
Bordeaux-Pa Paris-green mixture (six
pounds copper sulphate. four pounds
stone lime, one-half pound paris green.
forty gallons of water): one-third was
sprayed solely with paris green.
The late blight (which directly or
indirectly causes most of the loss from
the rot of the tubers) was first seen on
the unsprayed rows on Aug. 2l. 1t
spread very slowly. but when the tops
were killed by frost Sept %. fully 30
per cent. OF the foliage on the un.
spray rows were dead. being most
killed by the disease. No late blight
could be found at this time on the
sprayed rows, where fully 10 per cent.
of the leaves were alive.
The crop was dug Oct. 3. The
sprayed rows yielded at the rat of
3l4 bushels per acre. and the unsprayed
rows at the rate of 30l bushels per
acre, n gain in total yield of only 4S
bushels. But when the rotten tubers
were sorted out the sprayed area pro-
duced at the rate of 317 bushels per
at ,sls Ial. l. ta.
and the unsprayed area at the rate of
SO bushels per acre of sound and mar
ketab,e potatoes. Eight per cent. of
the crop on the sprayed area was rot
ted, while 80 per cent. of that grown
in the unsprayed area was lost by
rot. The net gain was 2G1 bushels per-
acre as a result of spraying with bor-
deaux mixture. Potatoes sold in Bur-
lington for 60 cents Der bushel. The
gain amounted. therefore to Sl5G. 1t
cost about SO per acre to spray, leay-
ing n net gain of $3.50.
These results are exceptional; but
there We're many fields this fall, espe-
cially in northern Vermont where
there was as great or even greater
loss from rot Some were hardly worth
digging. Are you planning TO harvest
SO or 31T bushels of potatoes per acre
next year? Do you expect to leave 50
or only s per cent. of your crop in the
ield? Why not plant less land and
still raise as many bushels? 1t is one
way to solve the help problem. Bor-
dcauX mixture ought not to cost over
three dollars per acre for each appli.
cation; in practice it usually costs
much less than that Is it not better
to buy copper sulphate than copper

There are some farmers in this vicln.
lily who still put their silage in with.
out cutting. 1t is not convenient for
some to secure cutting machinery, and
others think they cannot afford this
expense of cutting. There appears TO
me to be marked difference in the
quality of the cut and the uncut silage.
enough certainly to warrant quite an
additional expense for the cutting il
necessary.
] visited the barn of good farmer
recently who is feeding silage for the
second season. His silo is well built,
his corn was secured without frosting
and has kept without the least indi-
cation of mould; still there is a strong
odor from it, sufficient to attract the
attention of any one before entering
the barn. even at time when the
sllage was not being disturbed. ! saw
his cows fed upon this siage. They
ate it greedly, and | was told there
was no waste, and that the cows re-
sponded well at the pail. Still, that
strong and rather unpleasant odor
hung to everything.
On my return [ passed another barn.
where whole silage was being fed, ana
| smelled it in passing. l said to the
boy: I'VE will notice when we reach
home and see if any such smells reach
us"
We accordingly did so. I may say
the boy has been away TO school for
several weeks and has not been hand
ling any silage dnring that time, and
consequently is an impartial Judge
When we reached home we noted
conditions at once, and both were firm
ly of the opinion that if we had not
known there were silo in the barn we
could not have determined that there
We're by any smell. | am very sure
this different condition comes from the
cutting, and / am firmly of the opinion
that the finer the cutting is Gone the
better. 1t would be interesting TO note
the difference between silage from the
shredder OF blower, which has been
| thoroughly fined and mixed in the
process, and that obtained from the
| ordinary cutter and elevator. The
Pines silage has been cut in One-fourth
inch lengths until this season. 1t was
cut this year in one-half inch lengths.
but is not so satisfactory as when cut
finer There are more leaves not fully
cut, and 1t is not so light in color. 1t
also appears t. cool more quickly and
| have more tendency TO freeze. Where
cutting machinery can be secured at
reasonable rates or where there is
permanent farm power silage can be
/ cut in cheaper than it can be packed
| in without cutting. more can be put in
a given space and the feeding is easier
and more even between different ami
mails.
! The silo Is TO be one of the principal
factors in advancing New England ag-
riculture, and every feature necessary
for perfect work should be kept con-
stantly before the people.-B. w. Nc
