GOOD SEED CORN,
Some OF the Important Points by
Which II May Be Known.

Some OF the more important OBJ
servations to be made in the selection
OF seeds are: Yield, quality, uniform.
ity, hardness, time Of ripening, free
dom from attacks of smut and rust,
and, in the case of small grain, the
stiffness Of the straw.
The corn crop requires, perhaps, as
great care in the selection as any
other, and merits special attention,
says the Prairie Farmer. The rapid
Improvement that has been made In
this crop, combined with the readi.
ness with which the different varieties
CROSS and mix, renders 1t extremely
subject to variation. Constant care
iis necessary in order to establish the
Vdesirable qualities that are brought
out In these variations and to more
thoroughly eradicate those not desir.
able.
Some OF the points to be observed
in the selection of seed corn are:
!. The size and shape of ear; ear
should approach as nearly as may be
uniform diameter from end to
end
2. Size and quality of cob, a me-
dunn sized cob being much better
than a large, spongy one.
3. Depth of grain.
4. Shape OF grain; grains should
carry their wedge shape uniformly to
the end, SO that the ear may present
as nearly as possible solid surface.
s. Covering of cob; cob should be
as completely and evenly covered as
possible at both ends.
Q. Hardness of grain, too hard and
hinty a grain not being readily mas.
ticated and digested. A hard grain,
also, is more liable to be a shallow
one.
T. Grains Of even, uniform size and
similar shape, to make possible uni
formity Of planting.
s. Color Of grain, purity of color
indicating purity of the corn.

battle at once, he sprang from his

FEED MORE ROOTS.
Stock Will Keep In Better Appetite
When Supplied with This Ration.

an the United States cattle feeders
have gotten out Of the habit OF feed
ing roots to cattle, because of the
abundance OF corn and corn fodder.
The chemist has also assisted. In this
movement by showing that the nutri-
tive value of roots is not great, as
compared with the nutritive value Of
the grains. But. roots have value
greater than that shown by the nu-
trients as determined by analysis.
There is digestive value in. the acids
and In the bulk that no chemical an
alysis will determine. Roots have q
stimulating effect In that they please
the appetite. .s
Some roots are. still fed to cattle
In the eastern states, where the GUS
tom began far back in the early set
Element Of the country and has per-
sisted. Two. reasons are found for
this. >. One, the early settlers were
from England. where root feeding was
common; two.th growing. OF corn is
n more difilcult' matter than In the
west, where the level fields make the
use of machinery. possible. In New
England roots are still raised quite
extensively for stock feeding
Some object to- the feeding of tur-
nips to dairy cows, but this. objection
is not to be met withli In the feeding
OF beef cattle and of. dry. dairy cows.
Doubtless the. corn and corn fodder
will be. more effective when fed with
roots than fed without roots Now
that the price of corn has risen to
such a height, 1t is necessary that its
feeding should be made as effective as
possible. 49, >.'&t 81.
With the increasing price of land 1t
becomes necessary to make every
acre produce as much feed as possible
very great tonnage of beets or tur-
nips can Big grown on an acre OF land
IL the soil be properly enriched and
properly TILED, says Farmers Review.
The tops as well as the roots can be
fed to beef cattle. The succulent
character Of the roots insures their
complete digestion by the cattle.
Mangel wurZels are particularly
adapted to feeding, because they are
relished by the cattle and can be,
grown in large quantities.

POINTS WORTH NOTING.

For late lettuce SOW in partial
shade.
Spinach for early spring greens"
should be sown about the 10th OF this
month.
1t Is the wasp, and not the honey
bee, that punctures the grape. The
bees profit from the work of the wasp.
Close by the side of the road is the
best place for the garden, for then
you will have pride in keeping 1t
clean.
Keep supply of early potatoes dug
and at the house, so that your wife
can get at them; don't let her dig
them.
Keep the tomato plants off the
ground. Nothing rots the fruit quick
er or more surely than falling to the
earth.
Weeds will keep right on growing
whether anything else In the garden
does or not. Don't let single one
go to seed, though.
How Is the crop OF boys and girls
at your house this year? Good? Glad
of It! No matter whether the corn
and wheat and all things 60 wrong,
II the harvest OF young folks is all
right.
Bunch onions are an easy and pay
ing crop. While they do not sell hs
readily as radishes they will sell well
after radishes are drug in the mar
ket. A dozen onions as large as lead
pencil make good sized bunch.

not well adapted for. granting lambs
following weaving and should. not be

The diagram herewith shows a de-
sign OF granting trough we have
adopted and used forsmany years with
excellent results. The trough may be

The. great advantage OF this rack
is. that the lambs cannot crowd and
the grain is put before them in an
