On many Of the large wheat farms
of the northwest steam and gasoline
traction engines have almost entirely
replaced the horse in blowing, harvest

of the latter type, because they make
possible dispensing with water and

to conditions prevailing in the territory
referred to.

One of the most serious drought con-
ditions to be reported for several years
has prevailed In northeast Kansas and
southeast Nebraska for more than a
month past. Reports coming from tbs
affected district state that the straw
berry crop has been ruined and oats
are a practical failure. Corn sprouted
poorly and is in critical condition,
while vegetable gardens are fast dry
ing up There is possibility that
there will be a reversing of weather
conditions to the droughty period Of
six and eight years ago.

We know of number Of men who
have been utterly Indifferent to the
practical advantages Of thing as
means of retaining wet pieces of
land who have had their eyes opened
and the lesson brought home by the
rapid drying up Of soils adjacant to
thing laid with view to draining
water from the family cellar. This
much Of an object lesson is usually
sufficient One of the men belonging
to the class mentioned is this year rails

It does not serve to lessen the regret
a whit that the little one in the home
is bitten by the pet family dog rather
than by the tramp cur that happens to
stroll past the place. Recently there
have come to our notice two cases Of
this kind. In the one little two-year-
old was killed outright by pet bull
dog that had been angered by boys
in the neighborhood, its jaws having
to be pried open before the grip of the
animals teeth could be freed from
the little ones throat In the second
instance a large Dane attacked little
child Of about the same age, son Of
the owner, and nearly killed him be-
fore it was dubbed off. There may be
cases where watchdog is a necessity,
but they are getting scarcer every day.
Since 1t Is the bark Of a dog that Is
the important thing, pug or terrier
will answer this purpose in most cases,
and should they attack the children in
the home they would not mangle then
quite SO badly.

The largest authenticated yield of
corn so far as has come under our no
tice is that reported by central Iowa
farmer who last year raised lat bush
els on one acre of ground. In addition
to manuring the land heavily, he put 1t
In tho best of filth before planting. He
used planter which placed the rows
three feet and eight inches apart and
drill which planted the kernels six
inches apart in the row. After he had
gone over the field in the ordinary way
he went over it again, straddling the
rows. This made the rows twenty-five
inches apart. Aside from the harrow
ing which was given the field before
the corn came up the only tool used
was single horse two shovel culti-
vator. The crop was laid by June Is.
When he huslted the crop he surprised
himself as we'll as his neighbors. The
extraordinary yield obtained was the
result of planting the very best and
thoroughly tested seed, rich and fore
ing soil and careful cultivation. There
IS reason to believe that this yield
could only be got from the richest and
best soil, as the chances are three to
one that less fertile soil, planted with
just as good seed and given exactly
the same tillage would not have pro-
duced nubbins enough to pay for go
Ing over tile field.
