when hay was stacked by hand and when
one acre of land in a day was good
blowing. Today, with the latest labor
saving farm machinery all this work is
cost and far less worry, and, together
with all this, is done in nearly every
case more accurately. Probably no ma
chinery has played more important
role on the farm, however, than the
gasoline engine. Today the gasoline en-
by the well-to-do farmer, but is an act
ual necessity TO every farmer who
farms for profit, and is sold at a price
that places it within reach of all. To
go into detail as to the value of the
gasoline engine on farm is impossible,
principal uses include such as the pump
ing of water for irrigation and domestic
uses, running small machinery, such
as the wood saw and grindstone, the
churn, separator, fodder cutter, shear
ing machine etc. And in any one Of
the above cases alone gasoline engine
pays for itself in a short time.
The gasoline engine of today is SIM
pie in construction, can be run at a
cost of a few cents per hour and is
absolutely safe-hence it's value The

Decomposition of Manure.

The decomposition of manure de-
ponds largely upon the amount of
moisture in the heap. When manure
is dry the chemical changes occur
Slowly, but more rapidly when the
heap is wet. When manure is mixed
with liberal supply of absorbent
materials, and stored under shelter,
it will undergo but little change, but
when wanted for use. it may be de-
composed in a short time If saturated
with urine. If the bedding used in the
stalls is cut fine it will serve the pur-
pose desired fully as well as when un-
cut, but the main advantage is that
the fine material may be more init
mately mixed with manure, and will
then better absorb the liquids, to say
nothing of the easier handling, load
ing and distribution of the manure on
the fields when the season arrives for
spreading it. Much of the value of
manure is lost by mismanagement.
The quantity of manure made by a
COW in one year is very large, es-
pecially if all the liquids and solids
are saved. With the use of litter it
is claimed that a cow will make ton
of manure a month, but this estimate
includes the absorbent materials of
the litter, which serve to prevent loss
rather than to add anything of value
to the manure.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1906-05-01

"Our correspondent may ask: Why
apply farm manure when this land
already has a surplus of vegetable
matter? Simply to provide germs
which will eat up this peat, decrease
the bulk, and make it possible to pillow
up clay from the bottom, and thus
have a good soil. If there Is consider
able silt washed into it, so that it is
half or more silt and the rest peat
we would not hesitate to grow either
corn, potatoes, or timothy without any
application of potash"

PEAT LAND FOR POTATOES.

A correspondent wrote: II have
about five acres of peat land, well
tiled, so situated that l cannot use it
for pasture. Thought of planting it
to potatoes How would potatoes do
on that land? Should it be MANFRED;
and if so, with what kind of manure?
How will that kind of land do for
timothy?"
The question was propounded to
Henry Wallace, who answed: There

value of Gasoline Engines.

In these days of great Inventions,
when the markets are being crowded
with all sorts of labor-saving machin-
cry, it is interesting to note that in the
last decade no class of machinery has
been so developed and improved as has
the machinery of the farm. 1t is only
a few years since, comparatively speak
ing, when grain was threshed by beating
with fails or other like crude methods;
when grain was cut with the Scythe;

is peat land and peatish land. If we
knew which this was, we could give
advice more intel1igently Pure peat
will not grow corn on account of
deficiency of potash. AS potatoes re-
quire good deal of potash, we would
not expect that they would do well on
that land. If, however, it is peatish
land, that is, if it has more or less
clay mixed with it, then potatoes or
corn would do very we'll Some of the
heaviest potato producing lands that
we know of are peatish lands.
''If our correspondent could put
about half ton of muriate of potash
on this land and thus supply any posi-
BILE lack of potash, he could not find
a better kind of land for growing
potatoes. If it is mainly peat, we
would apply about two hundred
pounds of muriate of potash to the
acre and about eight tons of manure
per acre, and then grow whatever
seemed hest, corn. potatoes. or tim

A STATEN EMIT.

Certain houses in the city of Laramie
have been quarantined, by order of the
county health officer, to prevent the
spread of a contagious disease that,
while annoying and distressing, is in no
sense dangerous, and the affected par
ties will be kept in quarantine until all
danger has passed. The displaying of
a yellow flag at the front Of a residence
is indicative of the presence OF the
disease and people are cautioned to
respect it. 1t is not believed there
will be a spread of the disease and it
is announced that persons affected are
not very sick and suffer little incon-
venience. At present there are but
such flags displayed, two of these
being merely precautionary signals.

TOO FAR FROM THE soWERY.
New Yorker Would Not Build House
in Canadian Woods.

in Canadian Woods.
He was such a typical New Yorker
that he seemed strangely out of place
in the queer little lumber village way
up in the Canadian woods where his
duties as a lumber inspector called
him. And his talk, which was ever of
"the ponies and the race track,
seemed even more incongruous in a
place where the white men talked Of
shorts" and outs" "tw0 by twelves"
and "silos" and all the rest of the
targon of a lumber mill. One day the
superintendent of the plant, who had
taken a great fancy to the young New
Yorker, and who apparently loved to
listen to the inspectors stories OF how
he won three hundred on Roseben'
and other profitable operations against
the ring, told him he ought to invest
some of his winnings in a piece of
land neal the mill. build a cottage and
bring his family up there for the sum
mer. The New Yorker looked at him
in silence for a minute. Then he eject
ed a long stream of tobacco juice and
calculated slowly, What, build n
house here! Say, when | build a cot
tage it'll be at Coney, and 1t won't be
far from the track. That's as straight
a tip as you'll aver get"
