Inoculatiug Land For Cowpeas.

E. A. S., Richmond, Va, writes: l
would like some suggestions as to what
would be the best way to %inoculate
600 acres for cowpeas.
Answer: Peas often do fairly we'll
without incubation, as the seed is
large and very often covered with
the bacteria which produce the noduleS
for this particular crop. When grown
OF poor land the first year, however.
they are likely to show a large number
of nodules, and therefore incubation
is a matter of some considerable con-
Germ. We would be glad to send you
the inoculating material from the sta
ton if it were possible for so large an
area, but it would cost you consider
able, and it is likely that you could ar
range to get a few loads of earth from
a field which grew the peas success
fully last year, but you should be GER
tain that the peas formed a large num-
Der of nodules. Get about 200 pounds
SOW in peas and mix with the seed and
drill together, OF you could broadcast
the earth over the land and then go
ahead and seed the. peas. One hun
bred pounds of earth are often consid-
cred sufficient, but it is better and
safer, as a rule, to use 200 pounds.
You could probably get the earth st a
lower cost than we could furnish you
the material, and it is doubtful if we
could undertake to furnish enough for
600 acres, as the demand on us for
small amounts is very great, and we
are having great difficulty in getting
out enough bacteria for the principal
leguminous crops to supply the needs
of the small farmer. Soil incubation
is safe and is recognized as effective
and under the circumstances I feel
justified in advising strongly the i'm
portance of inoculating your land for
black peas.-Andrew NJ. Soule.

Preparing Land For Alfa1ra.

*. j. c., Franklin, writes: ST have
about three acres of land which I de-
sire to seed in alfalfa. For the past
four years I have been seeding this
down to crimson clover in the fall,
turning this under in the spring and
planting corn. The land is medium
stiff with clay suhsoil. 1 would like
your advice how to proceed to get the
land in alfalfa. I have another piece
of land that has only been in cultiva-
ton since last year. Last year it was
seeded to cowpeas and in the fall to
crimson clover, wheat, rye and oats.
Would you advise seeding this land to
alfalfa"
Answer-It would be we'll for you to
turn under the crimson clover on the
landintended for alfalfa, plow-it down
deeply, work carefully, and seed to
cowpeas as 500 as possible. Plow un-
der these about the first of September,
and subsoil at the same time, going
down as deeply as possible behind the
turning pillow. You can not get too
much vegetable matter and nitrogen
in the soil for alfalfa nor make the
land too rich. When you SOW the cow
peas you might make an application
of 200 pounds of sixteen per cent. acid
phosphate and fifty pounds of muriate
of potash, and repeat this application
when you seed the alfalfa. Sow at the
rate of twenty pounds of seed, and in
oculate either by soil or artificial cul-
lures as you see fit. After the alfalfa
is up a light application of nitrate Of
soda, say, fifty pounds per acre, will
be beneficial. Do not clip or pasture
the alfalfa during the fall. If a good
stand is obtained it may be cut for hay
the next year when just coming into
bloom. If it seems sickly and is yell
lowfsh in appearance, clip frequently
throughout the summer.
The other piece of land which you
intend to put in alfalfa should be
treated somewhat the same. If it is
poor it is hardly worth while to SOW
alfalfa on it until it has been made
rich and freed of weeds, for weeds con-
stitute one of the most serious draw
backs to alfalfa culture. If you do
seed to alfalfa SOW the cowpeas at
one and plow them under and treat as
already outlined. If conditions are IN
favorable for seeding in the fall it
would be better to again SOW the land
to crimson clover, or some other win
ter growing legume and break up early
in the spring and seed the alfalfa at
that time. If the ground is dry and
the season backward the alfalfa will
not terminate and make a good stand
before cold weather comes on, and it is
hardly worth while to seed it, as it will
be almost certain to result in failure

Destroying sassafras Sprouts.

W. I. c., Stewartsville, writes: "I
would like to know how to kill sassa-
fras sprouts. I used lime and have
succeeded in getting red clover on
part of it, but the sassafras seems to
get thicker each year. 1 have heard
that common salt would kill the stuff,
and I fear if 1 put it on thick enough
to kill the sassafras it would kill the
trees"
Answer-The most effective method
of destroying sassafras sprouts that
has come to my attention is through

Keep Ducklings Dry.

1t is claimed that the Pekin duck
will thrive well without ponds. 1t is
true that the ducklings can be more
easily raised away from ponds OF
streams than when allowed to have &C
cess thereto, but this is due to the fact
that most of the ducklings are Matched
with incubators during the winter sea-
son, when the cold waters of the pond
would chill them and cause loss.
Young ducks will thrive better if they
are kept away from the ponds until
they are we'll feathered, but despite all
claims in favor of the Pekin ducks as
being adapted to dry locations, my ex-
perience is that the adult ducks are
more contented when they have a
pond. Like all aquatic birds, they en-
joy the water, and they will thrive on
an open field away from water lex
cept for drinking), yet they give the
best results when they have the privil-
eyes of a pond.

Low Headed Trees.

The old style orchard was often high
headed, with the limbs we'll up out of
the way. The idea was to train the
tree so high that teams could be driv-
en- under and to keep the limbs above
the reach of cattle. Now that these
items are of less Importance to most
O~rchardists the tendency is in the OPP
posite direction, until J. II. Hale asks
.pertinently: whats the use of a trunk
anyway?" 1t may be said in favor of
the low down tree that the fruit may
be picked at considerably less cost and
is not so likely to be blown off by the
wind. Spraying is also less difficult.
1t is in many ways the better tree for
those who do not cultivate directly
under large trees and who keep cattle
away from the orchard. In a row Of
the summer apples the trees were cut
back much shorter than in many or
chards, consequently the limbs are
sturdy enough to hold the fruit with
out bending. These trees averaged
about four cases to the tree. The trees
branch out about eight or ten inches
from the ground.

The mildly alcoholic fumes which arise

Just as in certain parts of the west

Improving Corn by Selection of Seed.

Improving Corn by Selection of Seed.
II. G. R., Claxton, writes: 1 would
like to know what you think of the
value of seed selection for corn.
Answer: There is no doubt but that
the yield Of corn can be increased
through judicious selection so as to OBJ
tain q strain that will be more prolific
than many varieties now grown. In
experiments 1 have made l have noted
that where 5000 stalks were planted to
the acre not more than 5000 ears were
sometimes harvested; whereas, in
other plats with an equal number of
stalks as many as $500 ears were har-
vested. 1t is easy to see, therefore,
that some varieties are more prolific
than others, and as a matter of fact,
there are quite a number Of stalks in
practically all corn fields which are
barren. These stalks are large enough
to produce a heavy ear and would. Of
ten do if the variety were selected so
as to avoid any sterile stalks. Corn
breeding may be compared in impor-
lance to animal breeding; just as strik-
ing and valuable results can be ob-
tanned by giving care to selecting de-
Sirable strains of corn as have resulted
in the systematic effort to develop a
trotter of phenomenal speed in Amer
lea. The analogy in the two instances
is complete and would answer your
question as fully as pages of facts of
similar observation-disclosures Soule.

and thought I was doomed to starve to
death, till one day my husband trying
to find something l could retain brought
home some Grape-Nuts.
ITO my surpriselthe food agreed with
me, digested perfectly and without dis
tress. I began to gain strength at

Modern Schools Criticized.

address in London, said that school
and college education were mostly de-

steal school was not a school of
thought, but of prejudice, and under
the present unfortunate system of edu-
cation it was chiefly the games which
promoted alertness, individuality and
common sense.
