Onions an n Money Crop.

The business of growing onions in a
large, commercial way has within the
past few years assumed vast proper
tons, many thousands Of acres of land
being devoted to this purpose, says a
writer in American Cultivator
Remember that there are fashions"
In onions as there are In spring bon
nets, and an onion that will give the
best of satisfaction in one market may
fail entirely In another. AS rule,
the eastern markets prefer a small or
medium sized onion and one of yellow
or white color. Your larger onions will
do better in the west or south. New
York prefers a white onion as the south
does a red onion.
A good crop Of onions is 500 bushels
per acre, though it is no unusual thing
to see an occasional crop running from
1000 to 1000 bushels.

An Accommodating Grass.

Recently l advised the use of redtop
for dry high land and am reminded
that Professor Shaw claims that red.
top does not do well on a poor high and
dry hillside" That is true enough In a
way. Few grasses can do their best
under such conditions. But we have
learned that redtop will stand more
drought than timothy. 1t does so well
on heavy wet land that many assumed
this grass was fitted only for such
land, but it does comparatively well on
droughty land and should go into a
mixture for seeding land that suffers
badly from drought.-Alva Agee in

Corn For SilaRe.

Farmers are planting less Sanford
corn and more yellow or flint corn for
ensilage. The Sanford corn, being
sweeter, makes sour ensilage, which
is not satisfactory feed for cows or
butter, and the western grown seed
does not mature In short seasons, while
the flint corn makes a less sour and
richer feed, with less weight to handle.
Farm help is costing more this year
than ever before and not enough to go
around, says a Vermont farmer In

There are several ways of hanging
gable doors for the hayfork, and among
a number illustrated and described by
Country Gentleman are the following:
Where the hay is removed fro,1 the
load with sings the door must nave a
width nearly equal to that cs the load
itself, and in the diagrams the door is
represented as eleven feet wide by
eleven feet high. To make perfectly
sure that the loaded fork or sling clears
with the coarsest hay the door is safer
made 10 b 20 feet where the dimen-
sions of che barn will permit of this.
