FOOD FOR DAIRY COWS.
The Northern Farmer Can Practical
Iy Keep Away From the Mill Man.


With bran at $1S to 500 ton and
still climbing and other mill foods pro-
portionately high, 1t is very evident
that the dairyman must leave the pur.
chase Of these foods to some one else
He must try to raise foods that win
take the place Of these purchased mill
foods. And happily he can, says Pro-
fessor Thomas Shaw in Orange Judd
Farmer. In all the northern states
the dairy farmer can keep practically
away from the mill man. He may do
so in other states, but he can do SO
more easily in the northern and noun
tain states than in other areas. How
can he do it7 BY growing fodder corn
and roots.
There Is no state along the American
boundary In which first class fodder
corn cannot be successfully grown.
And there Is no province of Canada
on the Canadian side In which the
same may not be done. In some Of
these it may be more successfully done
than IN others, but 1t may be success
fully done III them all.
Kind of Corn and Soil.
The kind Of corn must depend on the
locality. That Kind will be best which
gives the largest amount of fodder re-
gardless Of ear production, provided
the fodder Is so fine that 1t VIII be
practically oil eaten and that it reach
es stage of maturity almost perfect
ed before it is cut 1t is greatly i'm
port1nt that the corn shall be nearly
mature when 1t is harvested and that
It shall be harvested before 1t has been
injured by frost.
Such corn will grow well on any kind
Of drained and rich land, but In north
ern areas sandy loans are better
adapted to its growth than clays, as on
the former 1t grows more quickly aud

English Cream Cheese.

Very thick cream Is poured carefully
into linen bag and this hung up. with
a basin underneath to catch the whey,
In a cool room or cellar. The air In the
room must be pure, as the cream easily
absorbs odors. When the whey is part
ly drained OF, the bag Is twisted tight
and bound SO as to dry the curd more.
Then, after twenty-four to forty eight
hours, according to temperature and
the consistency of the cream, the
cheese" is ready TO eat and may be
nodded as desired. This English
cream cheese" is hardly cheese, as no
rennet is used Perhaps it should be
called q ''sour cream curd.".

Ohio Trees.

Even the trees in Geauga county,
O., are full Of wealth. Dwight Hues
and Bigar 6aber of Huutsburg cut
down an old elm tree during the first

Of honey. The tree was also valuable

The uncertain weather Of March
means constant watchfulness for the
gardener In protecting the stuff that is
growing under glass from frost.
Cabbage and caulifiower planted last
month should be transplanted when
four leaves show.
Trees, vines and bushes should be
pruned.
Sixty to seventy degrees will do
well for lettuce, cabbage and cauli-
flower under glass, but tomatoes pre-
fer 20 to 80 degrees.
We no longer dread the harlequin
bug on cabbage, for by taking time by
the forelock and picking the first brood
by hand in early spring there will not
be enough left to do any harm.
Okra is by many considered a de-
sirable addition to the farmers gar
den, and 1t can be grown in almost any

WHEN GAS WAS NEW.

President of First Company Made
Daring" Experiment.
Gas had as much difficulty in making
Its way In New York city apparently
as did the steel framed skyscraper. In
each case II required man who had
tho courage Of his convictions to prove
that 1t was safe, but when once it was
shown that the benefits were greater
than the dangers gas and skyscrapexs
took their places as necessities. In the
case Of the skyscrapcr the designer had
to convince the owner, who had be-
come somewhat fearful of the success
Of his venture because Of the COM
ments OF his friends, by signing lease
for an ONCE on the top floor for
long term OF years. In the case Of gas,
although 1t had been used IN London
and other American cities before It
was introduced into New York, Sam
uel Leggett, the president of the com
pany that proposed to bring the much
feared tlluminant into use here. had to
prove Its harmlessness In his own
house. This was In 1923.
His heroism attracted good deal Of
attention and proved to be good ad-
vertisement, for hundreds If not thou
sands Of persons visited the house to
see the iuuminant which was said to be
SO much better than candles and fish
oil lamps. The house waS In the up

ture with two dormer windows. An
abutment OF the Brooklyn bridge now
occupies the site.
Stories Of the explosive character Of
gas had spread without the aid OF
press agent, and persons hesitated
about having the pipes run through
their houses. They were willing to
have some one else make the experi-
ment, however, and curious enough to
VISIT tho house of the venturesome one
to see what happened. For the time
being all roads In the evening seemed
to lead to Mr.. Leggett's house. Groups
gathered outside In the darkened street

Many couple from the other fashion

Of Broadway, gave up the evening walk
along the Battery to wend their way
up Pearl street I'm the moonlight to

were eager visitors from surrounding
towns. Mr. Leggett was not averse to
showing people how much better gas
was than any other form of illuminsnt
by taking them through the house.
This fact. becoming known through
out the city, added to the number of
visitors, and not infrequently whsn

BY II BENJAMIN, Jr., Washington.
AS estimated for Oct by the bu.
showed q decline of 8 of point, the
figures being S92 as compared with
S95 last month, $50 ON Oct /, 1904
sos at the corresponding date in 1909
and ten year average of S0.2.
The preliminary estimate Of the aver
age yield per acre of spring wheat Is
14.7 bushels (S.S centals), subject to re-
vision when the Anal estimate Is made
IN December. The average quality of
spring wheat is 80 as compared with
1877 In 1904 and S5.5 in 1903.
Movement of Grain.
Reports received by the department
Of commerce and labor indicate that
the total grain receipts st the ports Of
Boston, New York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore during August showed a
gain OF nearly 100000 bushels II
compared with similar arrivals IN 1904.
On the other hand, the inbound cereal
movement at New Orleans as well as
at San Francisco and Tacoma present
cd heavy losses by like comparisons.
While Galveston's inbound grain move
ment during August was heavily in
excess of that for corresponding
month in the preceding year, it should
be understood that during the latter
period the movement was exceptionally
small
Ioya's Corn
Iowas corn crop appears to be arous-
ing dlssension among the authorities
who are estimating 1t. Mr.. Sage, the
head Of the crop reporting service for
the state, Is credited with forecasting
bumper crop, while Mr.. Cowine, the
reporter for the department of agri-
culture, makes far less optimistic es-
timate-not less than 35O,O00,0O0 bush
els, says Mr.. Sage; probably under
300, ,00O, ,0C0, declares Mr.. Cowine.
John Cowine Is a well known practi-
cal Iowa farmer. He Is also q men,
Der Of the board having control Of all
state institutions and fs in charge Of
the nearly 10000 acres of state land
farmed at such institutions. j. X.
Sage, though not In active farm life,
has been connected with the Iowa crop
and weather service for fifteen years
past. Each secures information through
farmer correspondents all over the
state.
Professor Holden, SO well known in
with the Improvement Of
corn, has called attention to the fact
that failure to give due weight to the
damage done by the new pest In the
state-the corn root worm-would tend I
TO a too generous estimate.
A Special Crop Industry.
Among striking special crop develop
nents is that of asparagus In Callfor-
lia In the last ten years. Its district
les largely in the delta between Sac
Stockton and Port Costa and
includes at present about 1000 acres.
Most Of the crop is canned, and the
PROCESS is said to be clean and appe-
izing resulting in a healthful and de-
