firm before we plant again. We had rather work less land and get the con. ditions just right.
 If we must do some fall blowing we have found 1t best to throw ths land into high ridges with a middle buster and leave 1t rough. It will bt less likely to leach in this shape ane the frost can penetrate and pulverizs the soil. It win also dry out quicker in the spring and can be worked ear Her than when left flat. Of course wa know that with a great many large farmers 1t is impossible for them tc break all their land properly In the spring. and many of our most success, full farmers follow the practice of fall blowing. Where 1t Is necessary to get ahead with the work, 1t may pay ane of course 1t is better to break in the fall than to only half break and pre-, pare in the spring, but as we stated. we have obtained better results on tht
 RuraIist farm from spring breaking than from fall breaking, when 1t was done properly. We would be glad to have the experience of some of our readers along this line.--J. F. Merriam in Southern Ruralist.

Substitutes for Cotton Seed Meal In
 Commercial FertIIIEers.

request for information on this
 subject comes from Wilcox County:
 Your recent letter is at hand in which you call my attention to the high price
 of cotton seed meal and request me to
 name the materials that may be sub stituted for it. In making inquiries with q view to laying in our supply or
 fertilizers for 1906, I have become very
 thoroughly impressed with the phe- nomenally high price of cotton seed
 meal. Hence, I have counseled the
 most economical use of nitrogenous ma | teTial and the sowing in 1908 of larger areas of cowpeas and other legumes, so as to be independent in case similar high prices of>/nitro seneus fertilizers l occur in future years. l fear that the | advance in cotton seed meal will cause | an advance in the price of other ni-
 trogenous materials that might be sub stituted for 1t.
 Among the substitutes. the most inn portant are the following: Nitrate of | soda contains about 14 to 16 per cent of nitrogen in form very auickly available. We may substitute a little less than half pound of nitrate of soda for one pound of cotton seed meal We cannot afford to apply the nitrate of soda much before the crop is planted for fear that much of the soluble nitro gen will be washed out of the soil h. stead. nitrate of soda may be applied
 just ahead of the cultivating implement and in one side of the row at the first
 or second cultivating; or part may be put in the furrow with the seed.
 Sulphate of ammonia usually con tains about 20 per cent of nitrogen One-thi of a pound of this material | takes the place of one pound of cotton seed meal. It can bc applied just be- | fore planting at first cultivation.
 The most abundant materials are the packing house bi-products, chief among 1 them being tankage and dried blood

Roughness Supplementary to Corn For
 Fafteniug Range Steers.

| Bulletin 90 just issued by the Nc braska Experiment Station gives the details of a feeding experiment with two year-old range steers. the results of which show very clearly that the character of roughness supplied m connection with corn is very imt portant factor In the ecnomieal pro- duction of beef. Six lots of steers with ten in each lot were fed eXpe- rimentaliy for a period of six months.
 Without entering into the details or the test with two-year-olds as report, ed. the conclusions are tersely stated In the bulletin as follows: 1 l. When the ration consisted of corn and prairie hay, the amount ot grain required for eacn pound ot gain was lessened five per cent by ad- ding oil meal to the grain ration
 The cost of producing pound of gain was not lessened by the adition | of oil meal. but a better finish was | secured, which caused the cattle to sell for IS cents more per hundred, making a profit of sl,09 per head where a loss of $l1S per head resulted form feeding corn and prairie hay only
 The cattle returned a value of $S1 per ton for the oil meal fed, with corn worth 39 cents per bushel.
 2. Alfalfa is much superior to prairie hay when the grain consists or corn alone. It also proved to be | a cnedpeT source OI pEoNelH tHah SI' meal. The returns on the cattle fec alfalfa hay, were the alfalfa figured at $11.14 per ton, would have been ai great as the returns on prairie hay at $6 per ton, with corn as the grair ration at the price named. In com lparison with prairie nay at $6 wheI oil meal worth s2s per ton was a par of the grain ration, the alfalfa re turned value of ss 2s per ton.
 8. Bright well cured corn stove fed with an equal weight of alfalfa the grain consisting of corn alone gave slightly larger gains than corr and alfalfa, and proved the most eco nomical ration In the experiment. Tn improved to some extent the corn an' alfalfa ration by furnishing greater variety and by its tendency to checl SCOUTS sometimes caused by alfalfa The stover fed with alfalfa returned a value of $4.57 per ton in compari son with alfalfa at $0 per ton as th' sole roughness.
 4. Sorghum returned a value o S4.63 per ton in comparison with prat' rie hay at s6, each being fed with corn go per cent and oil meal 10 per lcent
 5. The ration given Lot l. corn and prairie hay. with nutritive ratio ol 1:IO.2. wss too low in protein for large gains However, the fact that corn. alfalfa and stover, with a nu- trative ration of l:Sa. gave a little larger gain for food consumed than corn aud alfalfa G:7.D, Is additional proof of the correctness of the Amer ican idea" that the old and accepted German standards call for more pro tein than Is needed for the best gains

Teaching n Colt to Back.

The American Cultivator.
 To teach and train a colt properly is a science. which too few understand. Learn to understand your animal, his pecullaritIes and train him accordingly. Many experience difficulty jn training a colt to back. There should be no serious difficulty in this If proper meth- ods are followed. The following from Horse Sense, one of the many champions oN the horse will help
 After the colt fully understands the legitimate use of the halter in leading Is a goodtime to teach 1t to back--an important and necessary duty In It's at- ta~ life of usefulness-which Is easily accomplished by complying with tho natural law again--by pressing the eX- tended fingers of open hand between the point of the shoulder and the breast bone and using the other hand at the halter strap to simply keep the colt straight in line, to back in any desired direction. Don't try to force the colt backwards by yanking at the halter or bit. but simply press in this sensitive chest cavity with the fingers, and the colt will naturally go backwards. pro- vided there is nothing of any obstruc- ton behind it. When this pressure has been made at the front and the colt has moved backward Off 1t Is only one step' it should be rewarded for this action; then try 1t again. About the third time this pressure has been made 1t IS good time to associate the word back with the pressure, and the reader Will be surprised to see how soon the colt will comprehend what is wanted, and how willingly the young thing complies with our every wish as soon as It un- derstands what is wanted
