Hairy Vetch.

Hairy Vetch.
One Of the best cover crops known
is hairy vetch. 1t has, however, been
little used on account of the high
price of the seed, much of which had
to be imported from abroad. There
seems no satisfactory reason, however,
why this seed should not be raised
on this side Of the water in sufficient
quantities to supply all demands. The
Ontario station imported seed from
Germany, and, sown in the fall, 1t
produced the next year SO bushels of
seed. Seed produced from this crop
was sown side by side with new seed
from Germany and gave a yield of
81 bushels above that of the German
seed. As the price of seed is five
dollars per bushel, this was a fairly
good return for the acre planted to
vetch. OF course the price can be
reduced by a number of farmers grow.
ing the seed, but even then the re-
turns will be better than from some
of the cereals.
For sweet potatoes the ground
should be plowed shallow. There
should be a hard bottom under the
ridges in which the sweet potato tn
bers grow, that the tubers may grow
short and stout.

Two Ideas of Farming.

Two Ideas of Farming.
In the United States there are two
opposite ideas of farming. One is to
farm on the extensive scale. The 9TH
er is to farm on the intensive scale.
The western idea of farming is to
own great tracts of land, and this idea
becomes more extensive as one goes
west. Even in Western Canada
farmer thinks himself poor unless he
owns several sections Of land. The
idea is one that had it's birth in the
days when land was cheap. 1t has
lived on in spite Of the changed con-
ditiops. In the day of cheap land
the great farm was a necessity, as
intensive operations were not pos
sible. Labor was scarce and live
stock abundant. and the animals could
be made to do most of the gathering
of the crops. eating them as they
gathered them.
With the increase of population the
interests of the country lie in the
possession of small farms. Reduce
the size of the farms and young men
will find it possible to purchase them.
At present prices it is practically i'm
possible for young man to buy
farm of average size. The old proc
esses of thin farming still remain on
the big farms and are likely to remain
as the price of land goes up, on &C
count of the ever-increasing price OF
labor.
In the eastern part Of the country
the intensive farming idea is in the
ascendency. AS a result the farms
are largely owned without mortgages.
The intensive idea is making itself
J felt to some extent in the West, but 1t
is yet slight, except near the great
cities, where farming takes on the
character more of gardening. Gould

Cheap Seed.

From now on till planting time in
the spring farmers will be purchasing
seeds for their various crops next
year. 1t is lamentable fact that the
ordinary farmer does not purchase
the best seed he can obtain, but
chooses a low grade seed at a low
price. 1t would be false economy to
use poor seed even if it were a gift.
Worse still is 1t to take chances on
old seed, that which was left over
from last year. Some of this loses
its terminating power very quickly.
1t is claimed that the amount of
imperfectly cleaned seed on the mar.
ket is very great, and this proportion
is very much greater than usual after
bad years. Not only is the question
of germinability at stake. but, what is
worse, the presence of weed seeds
mat, once sown, will cost the farmer
dearly in the efforts he must put forth
to get rid Of them. It will pay the
farmer to scrutinize his seed pur.

The Profitable Old Orchard.

Here and there is to be found a
profitable old orchard. We are sorry
to say that many of the old orchards
about the country are anything but
profitable. In the main the people
productive orchard before them re-
gard it as an illustration Of the un-
profitableness of orchards rather than
of the unskillfulness of the man that
happens to own it.
There is a belief with the amateur
orchardist that to plant a tree is the
chief effort required and that the ap-
pie tree is so hardy that it will sur.
vive in spite of almost any condi
tons. The fact is that the man that
attempts to plant an orchard and keep
it alive for a lifetime has a great
many things against him. At Mis-
souri, institute one speaker said: with
in four miles of our place there are
five twenty-acre orchards planted in
the spring Of 1883. Three have been
in timothy sod and moved. One has
been in clover and moved, and the
other is in weeds. These five or
chards have never paid the interest
on the land and under present treat
ment are not likely to do So"
The old orchard that is thrifty and
productive has had care, and it would
be interesting to study some of the
orchards of this kind and to inquire
into their history. 1t would be found
that they had been cultivated, fer
tilted and pruned. It would be inter.
esting to inquire into the history of
the old ragged unproductive orchards.
Their story would, however, be q
short one-"the short and simple an.
nails Of the poor" It would be found
that they had been left to care for
themselves, while the owner was get.
ting all he could from the land in
other crops.

generally been cultivated for . good
many years. Often Il has hAen

Fruit Gluts.

Whenever there is a glut in the
fruit market 1t is caused by one of
two things, an over-supply of fruit
that is of such perishable nature
that it will have to be disposed of at
once, or sending fruit to a market al
ready over-supplied, while other mar.
kets are left with too little fruit in
them. This latter is more often the
cause Of gluts. There are fifty thou.

States, including cities and villages.
The fruit is shipped to them hit-or.

The few markets that have a good
reputation receive too large consign.
ments. 1t Is evident that we will not
have cure for this evil till we can
get fruit shipping down to some sort
of system.
Such system would require daily
report as to the amount of fruit in
each place and probable demand. The
fruit shippers would have to be so
closely in touch that certain ones
could be directed to ship to certain
places and others to other places.
This would of course necessitate the
i fixing of the prices to be paid, else
all would refuse to ship to the low.

Hardy Plants.

In all parts of the country an eff.
fort Is being made to produce hardy
plants. In some cases this hardness
consists in being able to withstand
cold, in other parts of the country it
means the ability to Withstand drouth,
and in yet other places the ability to
grow in spite of the fierce rays Of the
summer sun. So the men that have
undertaken the task of developing
hardy plants have some extremely
hard problems to solve.
The work is being prosecuted along
several lines. One is to select plants
from hardy plants and to continue to
select those that show increased
hardness. Some progress is being
made in this line, but not so much
as the experimenters desire. Another
method Is to cross very good va
riety with an inferior one that has
hardness in an extraordinary degree.
Thus the wild crab apple, which grows
even north of the Canadian line in
Manitoba, is being crossed with the
finer varieties of apples thousand
miles to the south. From this cross
seeds are planted and then selection
begins Of the trees that bear the best
fruit and yet show hardness. In
either case it will be observed that
hardy variety must be selected as
starting point.
Already much has been accom-
plished and hardy varieties of plants
are being grown much further north
than 1t was thought to be possible
twenty years ago. 1t is difficult, how
ever, to say just what constitutes
hardness in plants, and it frequently
happens that q plant that seemed to

hardy when given longer trial
In good many cases the apparent
ly increased hardness is due to late
ness of blooming in the spring, the
blossoms opening after the frosts
have passed. A variety that is late
in blooming can be grown much fur

Observations along this line give great

Irish potatoes vary considerably in
their analysis, as is the case with
every other plant. There is an aver
age, however, that may be considered
to represent the composition. It is:
Water, $79.75 per cent; ash, O.99 per
cent; nitrogen, OBJ per cent; phos-
phoric acid, 0.07 per cent; potash, 0.29
per cent. Nitrogen and potash play

1t is doubtful if potatoes run out
in the true meaning of the word. In
certain localities they may deteriorate
in quality and productiveness owing
to the carelessness in the selecting of
seed and even in the cultivation of
the ground. 1t frequently occurs that
the humus in the soil becomes ex-
hausted and the variety for that rea-
son does not do as well as formerly.
The planter jumps to the conclusion
that the variety is running out. That
is the easiest way to account for the
Door results.
