one year to secure Towering plants the
next. Plants often live many years,
as they are quite hardy, but somehow
the bloom spikes do not amount to
much after the second season.
Mixed seeds of the peach leaved cam
panula, often called peach bells as a
handy garden name, may be had for 10
cents the packet. They should be sown
outside in May or June and transplant
ed to the border any time after July,
choosing. If possible, deep rich soil and
setting the plants sixteen inches or
more apart The colors to be expected
are various shades of blue and white
Peach bells are now IN high favor for
hardy plant collections and are freely
offered by plant dealers. There are
several large Powered varieties, the
best of which appears to be Gigantea
moerheimi, producing large spikes Of
white double camellia formed flowers
up to two and one-half inches IN diam
eter and blooming from May until July.

Some OF Its Charms OF Fragrance,
Color and Form.
The rich and the poor must have Eas
ter flowers. The gems of the flower
growers skill and the wonders Of the
world are the offerings for the day.
We cannot name the acres of glass in
this country devoted to the growing Of
Easter flowers, to say nothing OF I'M
portationS from across the ocean.
A late Easter has set an easy pace
for the florists this year and added to
the glory of the annual display. Gro
cuses, tulips, hyacinths, daffodils and
paper white narcisSuses give their wei
come cheer and help one to forget win
ter cold and March winds
Pansies, violets and primroses wipe
out the memories of past dreartness
and. lead gently up to the greater glory
Of the lilies, the roses and the irfses.
Lilies IN pots furnish fine specimen
plants. Some florists make UP num-
Der Of pans Of five, seven or more
plants Of Easter lilies that answer to
special need, giving a superb and
massive effect In decoration.
Hydrangeas, azaleas and bougainvil-
laeas remain useful Easter plants,
Among azaIeas julius Roelus IS of an
intense cOloring, eXcelling In that re
spect perhaps any Of the popular vari-
cites.
To the lover Of roses comes no hand
somer Easter gift than potted Amer
lean Beauty, and the growing Of this
rose for the great floral festival Of
spring is simplicity itself. Magma
Charta, too, Is an exceedingly beauti-
full rose for Easter bloom, while the
baby crimson rambler bush finds many
admirers.
The Boston fern and all it's later va
riatfons make a splendid show
Cinerarias and calceolarias appear to
be ideal for buyers who want big show
for small money.

THE SEED CORN TEST.

AEEI SEAE1J OOIGN
There is probably no field Of agri-
cultural effort which Is just now re-
ceiving a greater measure Of attention
than that having to do with the select
ing and testing Of seed corn. For
weeks past the seed corn gospel trains
have been making their trips through
the corn belt Of the central western
states, giving to hundreds and thou
sands of farmers the salient points on
this very important subject. Professor
Holden Of the Iowa State Agricultural
college, who is tie originator of the
corn gospel idea, is experimenting one
of these trains. For the benefit Of those
who may not be able to take advantage
Of the lectures given by these corn ex-
perts we give below a condensed de-
scription of this method Of testing
corn
The most practical way for testing
the termination of each ear is by using
q termination box. This is a simple
affair and can be made by any one in
an hours time. Any box about six
41SAACO OOCP CllO a Ny - ACCC LII O1ZC 1i1Iy
be used. Fill the box about half full
of moist sand, dirt or sawdust, we'll
pressed down, so that it will leave a
smooth, even surface. In case saw
dust is used it should be put In gun
ny sack and set in a tub Of warm wa
ter for half an hour, so that it will be
thoroughly moistened before using.
Take white cloth about the size Of the
box and rule it off checkerboard fash
ion one and half inches each way.
Number the checks 1, 2, 3, and so cl,
and place it over the sawd1st and tack
to the box at the corners and edges.
Lay out the ears to be tested side by
side ON the floor; remove one kernel
from near the butt, middle and tip of
the ear; turn the ear over and remove
three kernels from the opposite side, in
like manner, making six kernels in all,
thus securing sample from the entire
ear. Place the SIX kernels at the end
Of the ear from which they were taken.
Use care that the kernels do not get
mixed with the kernels from the ear
hCrC W ~ A1CCl LIZ hSA 14OaO ~ IL
moved boards may be laid over the
rows Of corn 20 keep them in place
until the termination is known. Place
the kernels from ear Of corn No. 1 in
square No. / Of the termination box,
from ear No 2 in square No. 2, and SO
on with all the ears. Then place over
this 8 cloth considerably larger than
the box; cover with about two inches of
moist sand, dirt or sawdust and keep in
a warm place SO that it will not freeze.
The sitting room will perhaps be the
most suitable place. The kernels will
terminate IN four to six days. Then
remove the cover carefully to avoid
misplacfng the kernels In the squares.
CA piece Of thin cloth placed over the
kernels before the covering is put on
will prevent the kernels from sticking
to the upper coveF) Examine the ker-
nels IN the termination box. For ex-
ample, the kernels in squares Nos. 1,
II and 20 have failed to grow, and
some Of the kernels tn squares Nos. 2, 3.
4, 8, Ia and Is have refused to grow or
show weak termination. The CORE
spending ears should be rejected. The
ears showing weak termination should
be treated the same as worthless ears.

A HOG CHOLERA PREVENTIVE.


Leading farmers In a county in a
western state claim that the hog
cholera plague has been practically
and effectually stamped out In the fol-
lowing very simple manner. Inasmuch
as the plan is an inexpensive one, in
vofving no outlay for high priced medi-
ctnes or veterinary attendance, we give
it for what 1t is worth. 1t Is a well
known fact that the ordinary proce-
dure when cholera breaks out in a drove
Of hogs Is to take the infected animals
out of the pen or lot IN which the drove
has been quartered. The plan under
discussion Is a reversal of the common
practice provides for the removal Of
the well hogs to entirely new quarters.
In view Of the fact that veterinarians
are we'll agreed that the disease
spreads through Infection, well ami
mails becoming contaminated by the
saliva, sputum and excreta Of infected
animals, the method of prevention
suggested would seem to have much
to commend it along the line Of sound
sanitary sense It is therefore clear
that If unaffected hogs are left in a
lot or pen In which the disease has ap-
peared they are exposed to the great
est possible danger of contamination.
We should be pleased to have any
readers Of these notes who may have
tried this plan TO report on the meas
ure OF success which has attended It,

A lady friend who is a very success
ful raiser Of poultry told rs recently
that the worst enemy she had to cope
with now in the poultry business was
the crows; that these birds had become
80 numerous and bold that they would
destroy all eggs laid by the hens on the
outskirts OF the farm homestead and
kill more little chickens than twenty
hawks. There is no doubt about the
crow being nuisance and the fact
that 1t eats some grubs In the fields is
no sort OF excuse for having it around
the premBeN Unceastng war should
be made on both the crow and the
sparrow.

FACTS ABOUT NITRO cu1ruRns.

Such extravagant ard misleading
claims have recently been made rela-
tive to the value of inoculatfng mate
rial for legumes that the department Of
agriculture has issued a circular sum-
marking the limitations and value of
the nitro cultures. The experiments
carried ON under supervision of the
government show that no beneficial re
suits can be expected for q particular
crop II the bacteria Of that crop are
already IN the soil; that but little bene-
fit can be expected from their use if
the ground Is decidedly In need Of
other fertilizers, such as phosphates,
potash or lime, and that but little if
any benefit can be derived from fnocu-
ation If the soil is already rich in
nitrogen. A test of samples Of nitro
gen fixing bacteria obtained in the
open market showed that many of the
cultures were In a worthless condition,
while many Of those whose condition
was good were badly contaminated
with foreign bacteria, molds and
yeastS. While the circular does not
say SO, this bacteria business would
seem to be an agricultural fad that
has been badly oyerworked.

The American Society Of Equity, with
headquarters at Indianapolis, Ind, has
undertaken the project Of organizing
the farmers of the country, particularly
those of the wheat producing states,

will be to control the prices of all the
leading farm products-to keep wheat
at 81 a bt.shel and other products at q

lie large membership proposed, one Of
the chief OBSTACLES to success will lie
IL the difficulty Of securing united ac-
ton and Of getting individual mem

The experiences Of the ordinary farm
ers' cooperative creamertes and grain
and produce companies along the line
Of securing united and harmonious 40
ton touching matters that are cunced-

cerned would seem to cause doubt as
to the ultimate success Of SO vast an

field Is surely an inviting if also a
speculative o1le and the outcome Of
the enterprise will be watched with a
great deal of interest.

This has been very mid winter
and stock have not felt the need Of shel-
ter as they ordinarily do At the same
time, when storm does come they
feel the lnclemency OF the weather all
the more. We passed a feed lot not
long since where some young stock
were being roughed through the winter
It was showing and blowing, and these
young things were standing with their
backs to the storm, all puckeTed up,
with the wet snow driving clear to
their skins They could not and would
not eat enough that day to hold their
own and will show the effects Of the
exposure for a week. Stock handled
thus through the winter will require a
month on good grass to get into thrfv-
ing condition. 1t pays to shelter your
stock.

Every web regulated garden should
have it's plot for asparagus. Once
started the bed requires little care,
yet furnishes an abundant supply Of
one Of the most succulent vegetables
we know. Vigorous three OF four year
old roots may be secured from some of
your neighbors or a nearby nursery
man. These should be set in rows
three feet apart, and about two feet
apart in the row, and to depth Of six
to eight inches in mellow, well ma
nured soil or may be put In trenches in
the bottom Of which well rotted ma
nure has been mixed. The idea in
putting the roots down to such depth
is that 1t Will increase the length of
the blanched, tender stalk to be cut
for the table Old beds may be great
ly benefited by fertilizing the surface
with we'll rotted manure and by sprin-
king a generous supply Of coarse salt
over the bed After the cutting sea-
son is over tle remaining shoots should
be allowed to grow undisturbed until
the close of the season, as only in this
way can the roots gain in strength and
vigor.
