as they are now. A hundred and fifty
Years ago sailor who had broken his
leg sent to the Royal Society AL ac.
count Of the remarkable manner in
which he had healed the fracture. His
story was that he had dressed 1t with
nothing but tar and oakum, and was
now able to walk well. This remark
able story naturally caused some ex-
element among the members Of the
society. No one had previously sus-
pected tar AMI oakum of possessing
such miraculous healing powers. The
society wrote for further particulars.
and doubted indeed whether the leg
had been really fractured. The truth
of this part of the story, however, was
proved beyond shadow Of doubt,
Several letters passed between the
Royal Society and the sailor, who con-
tinued to assert solemnly that his
broken leg had been treated with tar
md oakum, and with nothing else.
The society might have remained puz.

Success In stock Raising,

The breeding principles adopted by
l.. H. Kerrick of Illinois. the renowned
cattle feeder. in establishing type Of
steer for the most economical beef pro-
duction should be adopted by the
breeder Of other kinds Of live stock,
says National Stockman, and then con.
tinues:
Mr.. Kerrick said in relating the story
of his success ut the Iowa State In
stitute that when he commenced the
feeding business he could not find a
breed of cattle that produced type
OF steer exactly to his liking. but he
could see all of the beef points in two
breeds-viz, the Shorthorn and the
Angus. So he procured lot of the
best grade Shorthorn cows that he
could pick up. Then he got an Angus
bull as near his ideal type as could be
had. From this stock he procured his
feeding steers. keeping the best helfers
for breeding stock. In all his after
breeding he used the bull that was
nearest his ideal beef type. Every one
who has kept in touch with the great
cattle feeders Of the country knows of
Mr.. Kerrick's success. He commenced
about twenty years ago and was sue
cessful from the start.
Was not his plan shorter and bet
ter route to success than to have tried
to get his type Of beef steer from
some breed that did not have the type
demanded except in very rare and re-
mote instances? The fundamental
principles Of breeding are the same
wherever applied. Rightly they mean
progress, but II not they mean retro
gression or at best little progress.

Forcing Tomatoes,

Tomatoes as winter crop did not
prove very profitable at the Ohio sta.
ton. The market was very limited
and the price not high enough to prove
attractive. but the spring and summer
crop of tomatoes paid well, better than
lettuce or cucumbers. The average
yield for the term Of years was ut the
rate of two pounds four ounces per,
square foot, or nine pounds to the
plant, plants being set two feet apart
each way. The price raised from five
to twenty cents a pound, averaging
about twelve cents. The harvest was
from June 10 to Aug. /, and for the
last harvest the crop averaged twenty
cents per square foot. Thick planting.
was found to give more fruit In weight,
but slightly smaller specimens. The
varieties We're Stone and Beauty,
which proved about equal in merit.
Seeds were sown Dec. /, plants trans
planted twice into pots. and set In the
plant beds by the middle OF March.
The vines were supported on coarse
wool Irvine and were severely pruned
and the suckers removed. Leaf blight
was controlled by the use OF Bordeaux
spray. The fruit was carefully graded
and sold in five-pound baskets.
