FARMERS SUFFER FOR HELP.
Many May Lose on Corn Because O
Inability to Gather Crop.

BURLINGTON, Nov. 5:-A scare
ity of competent farmhands is again
the cause of concern among farmers
in many parts of the county, whose
late crops may rot in the fields be-
cause of the lack of help to gather
them. One of the greatest losses is
on corn, thousands of stacks of which
are still standing in the fields I'M
husked, and. with little hope OF It's
being husked before winter sets in.
AS a rule the farmers are prosper
Gus. but of late the ~perplexing ques-
ton of the hired man. is causing
them anxiety. Much of the trouble
has been caused by the drifting of the
Young men from the country to the
cities. The farmers have attempted
TO fiji their places with foreigners
with only mediocre success and in
many cases failure.

Horse Raising on the Farm.

Horses are and have for some time
past been selling for good prices, and
the indications are that all the horses
that our farmers can raise will be re-
quired at prices that will pay them
well provided they raise the right kind
The heavy draft horse is the most likely
to prove profitable for the average
farmer to raise. There are several
reasons why l make this statement:
/. The heavy mare Is most suitable
for the average work on the farm. /
2. The heavy colt can be broken into
work and will earn his keep at young
er age.
3. The work on the farm is well suit
ed to fit a heavy horse for future use
fulness when sold to go into our large
towns and cities for dray purposes.
4. There are few farmers who have
time and experience to raise more than
one out Of ten light horses that Is
really first class, and even then they are
not likely to get what II Is worth; but
some dealer Is likely to reap much the
greater profit. Gardhouse.

Manure In Sum ner.

One of the many seasonable prob.
lens that are presented to the farmer
Is how to dispose Of the stable manure
which accumulates during the summer
season. Last year l applied what ma
nure I could get from the stables to a
piece of buckwheat sown on a wheat
stubble turned under. The buckwheat
and grass were sowed July 81, or about
that date. l got pretty good crop Of
buckwheat, much better buckwheat
where the manure was applied than
where IL was not, and the manure shows
plainly on the grass this season. There
will be at least one-third heavier grass
where the manure was applied, says an

IDEAL RUST RESISTANT CANTALoUPE.
gan to ripen, it developed rapidly and
soon destroyed all the vines except
those grown from the seed of one
scotsman. Many of the hills from this
strain of Rocky Ford seed remained
green throughout the season and pro-
duced good crop of melons. Further
observations in the muskmelon fields
of that neighborhood also showed that
wherever this strain Of Rocky Ford seed
had been used many hills were umaf-
fected with rust, while with other
strains of seed of the same variety the
vines were all dead.
Mr.. Blnn selected a quantity of seed
from the rust resistant hills and plant
ed them in comparison with ordinary
seed. ION the rust resisting hills the
melons were hidden under a healthy
growth of vines and were large, solid
ly netted, with thick, firm flesh, small
seed cavity completely filled with seed.
On the rusted hills the plants were al
most devoid of leaves and the small
melons were prematurely ripe with
thin, watery flesh, large, open seed
cavity and practically of no market
value" Gigs. l and %
In tracing back the history Of this
strain Of seed 1t was found that some
years before Il scotsman had saved
the first lot from a single healthy
melon taken from field Of rusted
vines. 1t had therefore been developed
by the simple process Of saving seed
from the best melons produced by
plants which withstood attacks Of rust
when surrounding plants were destroy
ed by this disease. What was thus ac-
complished by one farmer with one
crop can probably be accomplished by
other farmers with the same or with
other crops if they will be alert while
the crops are growing to select and
mark individual plants which show
exceptional merit along the lines Of
prolific yield, early maturity, resist
ance to disease or other desirable quail
ity and save seed separately from the
plant showing such qualities. Marked
variations which may be profitably
utilized in this way are constantly oc-
curing and are plainly evident on all
farms.
The point to be emphasized Is that
improvements in farm crop varieties
nearly always trace back to individual
plants. No one is in better position to

ENEMIES OF CORN.
Flowing and Disking Diminish Bill
Bugs and Root Louise.

Corn bill bugs and the corn root louise
have long been recognized as serious
enemies OF corn throughout the greater
portion of the corn belt. For several
years S. 4. Forbes, Illinois state en-
tomologlst. and his assistants have been
working on corn insects in general and
on practical methods Of controlling
these pests. In recent study Of such
species of corn bill bugs as breed ia
grasses It was found that In badly In
tested timothy from 30 to 20 per cent
Of the timothy bulbs were injured to
some extent. In fields which had been
in timothy only two years the bulbs
were infested to the extent of 10 TO 20
per cent. II was found that at least SO
per cent of the hills Of corn infested
with these insects failed TO form ears
or filed out lmperfectly, some fields
yielding only twenty to forty-fv bush
els per acre where the yields should
have been eighty bushels. In some To-
calltles as high as 20 per cent Of the
hills Of corn were quite badly injured,
the amount of damage naturally vary
ing according to the nearness Of the
field to the centers Of infestation by
this insect.
