IN DARK AS TO MOSCOW.
Last News From There Is of PiIIage
and Arson.

Berlin, Dec. 5.-Absence of news
from Moscow leads to the worst con-
clusions in respect to that city's fate.
The latest information was that the
old capital was in the hands of mobs
that sacked and burned all the gov
eminent buildings, and the police and
Cossacks pillaged the imperial gran
cries and cut the telegraph wires. 1t
is evident the last line of communica-
ton was severed at least "a hours ago
and that Moscow is isolated, not only
from the world, but from the remain
der of Russia.

For Free Cultivation.

10 the older agricultural States no
thought MS ever given To reforestry
when the original forests we're destroy.
ed The timber was of no marketable
value then and was cumberer of the
earth But now the end is reached on
many farms aud every effort should be
made to grow trees Of value, such as
hardy naples. locusts, walnuts, etc Of
course, a plat Of land that will produce
paying crop of the staples will be more
valuable for that than for forest crop,
but there are spots on most farms that
may well be planted 70 trees aud the
little thickets of an acre or 50 will prove
in time to be pleasant, shady places for
cattle to spend the heated midday hours.
In few years they become q resort for
the seekers after poles aud later on this
or the next generation will cut them for
timber.

of moisture from below by evaporation,

Preventing Milk Fever.

John Gilbert, an experienced Eng-

prevention Of milk fever in cows is bet

effected through the simple air treat
ment with bicycle pump He handles
large numbers Of incoming cows, yet he
has not hLd case Of milk fever 10 the
last IL years, says the Maine Farmer
His preventive treatment is as follows
Every COW coming 10 with her third
calf or over shall be literally fed on
usual keep, according to time Of year
in winter she shall be kept in a box
(loose) when expected to calse She
shall have one or two pints best linseed
oil day or 50 before calving, and again
II hours after calving bran mash 40
hour or SO after eslving, aud bran mash
With chat and hay. for two days. The
COW aud calf shall I've loose, bat the COW
shall not be MIXED for at least As hours
after calving 10 the case of dead or
weakly calf. about quart may be milk
ed four times in "A hours.
And this is the whole secret To
many it may seem unnAtural, but a
heavy milking COW is an unnatural AMI
NAL and il is not natural to take from a
coz just calved what the calf would not
take until a month old The strain OF
the system in replenishing the milk sup.
ply is, | think, the sole cause Of milk
fever, together with the neglected state
Of the bowels A"
II Wili be observed that this treat
ment is along the line that has severa
times before been recommended by ex
perienced COW owners in the columns o
the Farmer. Any COW owner can fol
lOs out so simple directions withou
previous experience, aud We earnestly
recommend attention to these directions

Testing Farm Seeds Before Planting

TeStlnS arm oSoas oSloIe Hl1nt4nS
Unless a farmer learns 70 do this sort
of work for himself be is always liable
TO be sowing weak seed or certain
percentage Of dead grains. The loss
70 the farmers Of this state from seed
ing bin-burned, bleached and other types
Of weakened wheat and oats. is, to ny
knOEledge, very much greater than any
one would ordinarily estimate.
There il much weak seed soEn every
season. II the grain was damp for any
considerable time either before or after
threshing, it ought to be tested. Farm
ers cannot well afford to lose two or
three bushels par acre 10 the yield, If
few cents per busbel will insure sound,
strong seed 1t is a cardinal poirt in ag-
riculture that there ought to be a rapid
first growth from the seed.
1t is very easy TO learn whether the
seed will put forth a quick, strong
groWth. Take deep plate, fill it nearly
full Of sand Or dirt Pure sand is best
Lay on top Of the dirt or sand sheet
or circle Of unglazed paper, or clean
blotting paper Pour water until the
sand is just nicely saturated, and the
paper evenly vet through. Count the
seeds to be tested in lots of 100 each
and spread them even on the paper
Place another 100 Of very good seeds
Of the same sort there also, 50 that you
can compare the growths that occur
lnVert another plate over the seeds OF
cover with a tin lid to keep in the mois-
ture. Keep the germinAtor At ordinary
room temperature. Add enough water
zach morning TO keep nicely damp, and
observe what happens. 10 about four
or five days one can count out the bad
or weak seeds. Ii will pay to note what
sort Of grains make the strong growths
and vice versa. In this manner one can
soon become a good judge Of seed grain
We get discouraged with our profession
when We get bad grain 10 Be tested from
the same men every year. In some
cases they actually send seed OF worse
type and character each time.
II you do not Ike the plate method
described here, plant few hundred Of
the seeds to be tested in a common box
Of dirt or sand and keep moist 10 a warm
place for week to see what per cent
shows a strong termination This is
about all that is done By US when the
seed is sent here to be tested, and we
think that our time is worth more TO the
State if it is spent in The line Of new
studies upon plant diseases. Farmers
testing seed for themselves are greatly
benefited By the experience and we
strongly urge them TO follow the above
directions, instead Of sending the seed to
the station for examination Prof. Fl

This office has just been treated

two we'll developed heads. The
reptile is in the possession of Mr..
w. S. Cullens of Jamestown. 1t
was found in some small stream
on the mountain beyond James
town and was first exhibited alive
at that place. After being kept
for some time it died, but no one
can doubt his real snakeship.

Governor Davis last week sent
a special message to both houses
of the legislature asking that he
be relieved of future service on
the board Of penitentiary man
agement. He condemns in un-
mistakable terms the other mem
bers of the board and the man
agement of the institution, and
declares he will wash his hands
of the whole business. There
has long been a rupture between
the governor and the other three
members of the penitentiary
board and there is no prospect of
healing the breach.
