Onion Growing.

The period between killing frosts IN
Montana is placed at 100 to 12O days,
while the time required for onions TO
mature from seeding Is 1875 to 100
days, and II onions are not thoroughly
ripe their keeping quality is injured,
according to a report prepared by X.
w. Fisher, Of the Montana Station.
The experiments are recorded In detail
for each year, and yields given by both
methods Of culture
Generally speaking, the yields from
tansplanted onions were from 80 to
2OO per cent larger than from seed
sown In the field, where there was but
little or no increase in cost of labor.
The transplanting insures an even crop,
the maturity Of the crop and the keep
Ing quality OF the onions. Prize Taker
gave the largest average yield Of the
nineteen varieties grown, and was one
of the best keepers, though not usually
advertised as a winter onion. The seed
ling bulbs Of this variety, however,
kept poorly because the growing sea-
son was not long enough to properly
mature them. The use Of well-rotted
manure increased the yield of both
fleld-sown and transplanted onions.
Suggestions are included for making
hotbeds.

POLICE SLAVES OF A BABY.


Turns the station Upside Down for .
Period of Two Weeks.
The officials of the Children's So
clety breathed sigh Of relief when
they got rid Of 2-yearold baby boy
who was on their hands the last two
weeks. There have been hundreds Of
2-year-olds in the society rooms since
the organization was founded, but none
ever compared with the little unknown
who made things SO lively that there
wasn't an hours peace while he stayed
in the place.
On the night of Oct. 4 little Samson.
as he was quickly called, was found
in Corlears Hook park, where he had
been abandoned. He was turned over
to cop, who took him to the Delan-
cey street police station. Thence he
was shipped to the Children's society.
He was pretty little Joungster, with
light hair, big blue eyes and fair COM
plexon, and he was fairly we'll dress
ed
Although unable to talk, he made 1t
known that he wanted drink of water
and couple Of cops on reserve made
rush to wait on him When the tot
drank his fill he let the dipper fly and
caught Policeman Sullivan over the
eye. He laughed in glee when he saw
the cop rubbing the sore spot and
straightway bawled for all he was
worth until the dipper was handed
back to him. A second time he let it
rip and it crashed through a window
of the back room.
Seeing that he had done some de-
struction, he appeared to be happy for
a while, but once his eyes rested upon
the checkers and dominoes on the ia
bic he slid off the bench and toddled
over. The big cops DIDN'T like the in
terruptiOn of the game, but there was
nothing to do but quit then and there.
Samson gathered all the checkers and
dominoes together and then let loose
fusillade. Laughing and chuckling, he
threw every one at the cops, who
lodged and fed from the room.
Left alone, Samson toddled across
'he looHi anu hlckeu over every cuSl'l-
dor. overturned benches and chairs and
with mighty effort tipped the heavy
table. The sergeant, hearing the rack
ct, rushed In and just nailed Samson
In the act Of hurling brush through
pane Of glass. The cops were ac-
cused Of cowardice for not standing
their ground and the doorman was
threatened with charges Two blue
coats were detailed to watch the young
ster, while the others were set to work
strengthening out the disordered room.

MILK Cows,

The Hollanders evidently breed and
feed for milk first Of all. That they
succeed is proved by the large milk
yields of their cows. That large milk
flow, seemingly regardless Of butter-fat
percentage. pays them is proved by
their prosperity. The dairyman here
thinks 1t necessary to pay small prices
for dairy COWS that annually yield
from 5000 to 1000 pounds of milk
What the financial result to him is, the
wretched records show only too plaiH
ly. He is the worst-paid farmer in the
land. What could he not do If, instead
of breeding. buying, feeding and milk
ing cheap COWS, he were to breed, feed
and milk cows Of the 1900 to 1850
pound class! The Frieslanders and
other Hollanders. with their gigantic
cows, make money on milk produced
on soil that costs from $500 to $4,000
an acre or rents at from soc to 5000

Ginseng in Missouri.

According to the Missouri experiment
station bulletin. the cultivation of GIN
seng for the Chinese market has be-
come an important industry I'm that
State, Notwithstanding the fact that it
takes five or six years to mature crop
While the crop IS exceptionally valu-
able. the cultivation of ginseng has
been found to possess disadvantages
the same as most other cultivated
crops. 1t appears that several fungus
diseases have broken out in the gin
seng plantations, some of which are
extremely serious and Infectious, large
areas often being destroyed in a sin
gle week. However, the particular or
panisms causing the damage have been
recognized and methods for keeping the
diseases under control have now been
worked out

The Onion MagEot.

The onion mag.ot and cabbage mag
got can only be distinguished by an
expert, as they are very nearly alike.
The maggot Is the larva of small fly.
There Is no known sure" remedy that
can be applied. Sprinklng powdered
sulphur around the plants is a partial
remedy, but 1t does not always bring
relief. Making a small hole near each
onion and pouring into each hole half a
teaspoonful of bisulphide Of carbon,
covering the holes with earth Is claim
ed to be remedy, but such method Is
expensive and laborious. Liquid ma
nure applied to the plants Is claimed
to be remedy. The best preventive.
Is to grow the onions on land that has
not before produced a crop, but OF
course such can not be doue until next
season This change of location of the
onion patch Is the only parta! solution
OF the maggot problem.

To Rid Animals of Lice.

A bulletin recently issued by the Ok
lahoma experiment station gives the
following formula for making kerosene
emulsion to rid farm animals of lice.
Hard soap, one-half pound; kerosene
Cheap grade) two gallons; water, one
gallon. Cut the soap In shavings and
boil In water until the soap Is dis
solved. Remove the soap solution from
the fire and add kerosene, and churn
or spray back until a thorough emul-
sion Is made. To set emulsion add
seven gallons of water and use this
for spraying or dipping. This emul-
sion may be applied to any of the farm
animals by means of sponge, brush
or spray pump, without any injury
whatever, and when thoroughly ap-
Ijled it will rid the stock of lice. This
emulsion may also be used to free poul-
try from lice. Place the emulsion In a
vessel Of convenient size and dip the
fowls, being sure to get all portions
Of the body wet, and hold them in the
dip one minute. After treating the
fowls the emulsion may be used TO
spray the rOOsts and coops, and in this
way rid them of mites and lice.

No Profit In Farm Alcohol.

The Departments Of Agriculture,
through DIR. II. W. Wiley, chief Of the
bureau Of chemistry, has undertaken
to educate the farmers regarding the
manufacture Of denatured alcohol. Two
bulletins on the subject have been is
sued.
From DR.. Wiley's discussion Of the
subject the conclusion Is reached that
the manufacture Of alcohol on a very
small scale Is not likely to prove prof
table and because of revenue regula-
tons it Is evident that the farmer must
be content with producing the raw ma
terials. The bulletin on the subject of
sources and manufacture says:
1.-The principal uses OF Industrial al
cohol are illumina ton, heating. motive
power and the manufacture Of lacquers,
yarnishes, smOkeless powder. medicinal
and pharmaceutical preparations, vine
gar and ether. When Industrial alco-
hol Is made at a price at which it can
compete with petroleum and gasoline,
It doubtless will be preferred for the
purposes above mentioned. because of
It's greater safety and more pleasant
odor. Under the present conditions it
Is not probable that industrial alcohol
can be offered upon the market at much
less than 40 cents Il gallon of 95 per
cent strength"
DR.. Wiley expresses the belief. how
ever, that by paying attention to I'M
used sources of raw material and with
improved methods Of manufacturing
and denaturing this price can be di-
minished.
