BETTER FARMING.

Among the different topics dis
cussed at the Farmers institute
meeting perhaps none has received so
little attention as this subject and yet
it is one of great Importance. Many
farmers have not even thought of 1t;
some have given it considerable study
and attention, and have learned to
know the value of it.
Not more land, but better farming.
The farmer has many hard problems
to solve at the present time, and es-
pecially the young farmer or begin
ner. On many farms the soil Is de-
pleted of its vegetable deposits or
humus through the old system of
farming. Our produce from the ex-
hausted soil has to compete with the
products of the new countries with
their virgin soil, and with the west,
where the land is cheap and fertile.
We are all clamoring after more
acres. wheh the object in many cases
should be better and more Intensive
farming" Very few of us are so for
tunately situated that we can add
more acres, but nearly all of us can
increase the producing capacity OF
our land by improved and advanced
methods of farming. thereby enrich
Ing the soil SO that in some cases
double the amount of crops can be
grown from the same farm. This is
worth great deal more than addi-
tional land. Among the many things
that can help us are catch crops"
There is no definite time for sowing
them. They may be sown at any
time, or with other crops in the sum-
mer season. Nor is there any partic-
ular kind of crop. Amy crop that is
suited to the particular time of SOW
Ing will be satisfactory. Where the
land Is in good heart, clean and
plenty of vegetable deposit (humus)
clover, mixed with grass. ranks very
high. If the season is favorable 1t
Will give an abundance of fall pas
ture, and in many cases with the
roots and tops, will put as much back
into the ground as the grain crop
takes out of the land. In nearly all
cases the fertilizing value of the
stalks is worth much more than the
seed cost.

WHEN TO BUY TREES.

Patronize the nursery, local or 9TH
erwise. that gives you the very best
stock for the money: and don't object
to paying good price for a first-class
tree, and don't buy from an agent
send direct to the nursery. Buy of
only well-established nurseries that
have good local and favorable ma
tioral reputation. When apple trees
or any other kind of fruit trees are
planted the planter wants to be sure
he is not making a mistake; wants
to know that he is planting trees that
are true to name. of good vigor and
that will do their part If he will do
his. We do not advise discrimination
against the local nurseryman II he has
good goods, fair prices and honest
methods of.selling. and if in your To-
cality the nurseryman tries to serve
his customers faithfully. gives them
what they pay for and knows how to
grow first-clacs stock, then do bust

A DAYS OBSERVATION.

Not long ago l passed a farm on
which farm operations are carried on
quite extensively, requiring a large
complement of implements to do the
work. The tools had been brought in
from the fields. but the only shelter
they had was the blue dome of heav-
en-. They stood in the yard. and were
a dilapidated looking outfit. The own.
ers are what we might call rich in
chattels and lands and maybe can at
ford to leave their implements thus
exposed to the weather. However a
friend of mine in making an address
before farmers institute came very
near hitting the nail on the head when
he remarked that man who can ar.
ford to buy good implements can also
afford to shelter them from sun and
storm. Certainly poor man cannot
afford to leave his implements lying
in the fields or about the yards.
am cogniZant of the fact that our i'm.
plements of to-day do not take near
ly as much dsnagc from exposure as
they did few years ago, when wood
entered very largely into their con.
struction. | even heard one man
argue before farmers institute that
inasmuch as implements are made ex.
clusively of steel and iron. it is cheap.
er to leave them out from one years
end to another than to provide shelter
for them. His statement did not meet
with the approval which he may have
expected. There are in my locality
some splendid tool houses. One of the
best | know of is fitted with row of
grain bins along one side. leaving am.
pie room on the other side for all
the tools on the farm. with driveway
between. Such house is desirable
but not essential. Do not leave tools
out because You cannot have such
one. A cheap shed built alongside OF
barn or crib will answer the purpose.

She has such a ready good humpr

There are only a few that take the
world so cheerfully under the infib

Il at come under the eye of the police

CARE FOR THE POULTRY.

The average farmer takes but little
interest in the care of poultry. the
work falling on the wife and children.
and. in SO many instances. they work
at great disadvantage. 1t is really
wonderful how well they succeed. The
chicken house should be made SO it
can be kept clean easily. no matter
cannot. or do not. keep it clean. it is
of but little use. Where good gravel
is handy one made of cement and
gravel is cheap. warm and easily kept
clean. The wall above ground need
not be thick; six parts clean sand or
gravel to one part good cement
smoothed on the inside, makes an ever
lasting wall and easily kept free of
lice. Four to six inches is plenty for
any cement wall not over. eight feet
high.
All poultry houses should have a
southern exposure for winter. Use the
breeds you like best. They all have
their advantages. but get the best
and try to improve on them; they eat
no more and bring you lots more
money than the mongrel. Always put
up some clover hay for your chickens
to feed on when the snow is on the
ground; they will eat lots Of it II they

at time when eggs are valuable. 1t
takes the place of the green food they
get in summer.
