BEAN STACK.

an arrangement similar to the one
shown in the cut, says correspondent
of Farm, Field and Fireside. This is
very easily constructed at little or no
expense. Any sort of available poles
or sticks may be used, dashed together
with pieces of Irvine or small wire.
The platform, built ten inches or
more from the ground, permits a free
circulation of air underneath and SO up
through the pile and prevents the bot
tom layer from molding. BY arrang-
ing cross sticks as shown a cover may
be placed over the top that will pre-
vent rain entering the stacks from
above. Beans cured in this way are
very uniform and free from mold. The
poles may be kept from year to year,
and the platforms stored in piles or in
buildings.

TIE GRANGE STORE.
Has 1t Any Claim That VIII Justify
Its Establishment:

lfs AUfASA 4AEues
Sometimes those who are not mem
bers OF the gsange ask the question if
it lis rigat for the grange to start a
store and thus enter into competition
with stores already established. and, it
may be, in smaller towns to crowd out
the county store. The question is very
we'll answered in the New York Farm
er, which proceeds to discuss it some
what at length:
s.If the farmers can, by purchasing
for themselves what they have pur-
chased for years through the store and
by selling for themselves what the
store has for years sold for them, get
their purchased supplies at lower prices
and sell their own products for better
prices there is no reason why they
should not go into cooperative buying
and selling. In cases where oranges
have bought and sold, the results have
been satisfactory, and nobody has been
deprived of any essential moral or le
gal right
1.-THE grange store is great thing
for the farming community, and farm
ers should make free use of it. 1t can
be used to cut down costs in buying
supplies and to increase profits in sell
ing farm products. Besides this, the
management of the store By farmers
will in a measure give the farmers just
the business ideas anu experience need
ed to enable them to play the part in
larger cooperative operations so nee
essary to give them d more equitable
part of the money paid BY consumers
for the produce Of the farms. Middle
manism is what stands today between
the farmers and prosperity. The con-
sumers pay perhaps $12,000000,OO0
year for produce that gives the farmers
less than S4,000,000,000 year. The
great difference between these great
sums measures the great middleman
draft and graft on the agricultural in
terest of the United States. Wherever
and whenever the farmers can do SO
they should reduce the draft and graft.
They can do 1t by starting grange
stores, cooperative cheese, butter and
casein factories, cooperative milk con-
denseries, collecting and distributing
agencies for eggs, fruit, butter, cheese,
wool, meats and other produce, coop
erative elevators and -four mills and
other establishments now controlled
exclusively by middlemen who pay to
producers and take from consumers
just what they WILL.

The Country school.

If there is one mission more than
another that the grange should accom-
plish, it is the improvement of country
schools. It is hopeful sign that the
grange as an organization is giving SO
much thought and study to the prob
lem of education, and the closer the
grange and the school can be brought
together the better for both. There are
some things to teach in the schools be-
sides multiplication tables and declen-
sions. The American school should
stand, and I believe does stand, for
character as we'll as scholarship. The
ordinary people make the state, and
the schoolteacher should help to mold
the character of the ordinary people.
Above all else let US take more inter
est in the schools where our children
are trained. Let us cultivate the ac-
quaintance of the teachers Let US see
to it that only teachers of ability and
strong character are employed, for it
must be the right character in the
teacher that inspires the right charac-
ter in the pupil. A. Fuller.

study, work and Hustle.

Farming is now one of the best ca
reers open to American young men,
and the fact is becoming quite general
" known. Yet some prejudices sur
vive from less prosperous times. Now
and then a young man, forced to drop
out of a college or professional school
because of impaired eyesight, voice or
similar handicap, takes up farming
with an air of hopelessness, as If all
ambition were passed for him. Such
an attitude would mean failure In any
thing. Who tries for little receives
less Let him take up farming with
vim and gladness. For the right kind
of man there is no nearer road to all
that is most worth having. If you will
study and work and hustle, young
man, your brains and energy will put
you where you belong, but otherwise,
concludes American Cultivator, If you
let yourself sag into the ranks, satisfied
with the ways and doings Of the aver
age man. Brace up and resolve to be-
come the best farmer in the state and
pave the way for wide influence and
leadership.

OLD BRiNDLE.
All She Wants is a Better Breed of
Dairymen.

All She Wants is Better Breed of
Dairymen.
All Old Brindie wants is chance.
Give it to her She won't disappoint
you. Last year the value of the milk,
cream, butter and cheese produced BY
Old Brindle and her sisters in the
United States was worth $685., 000,O 900.
That shows what she can do when she
has half chance.
Brindle had about the best chance in
1905 she ever had. The season was
long and the pastures good. She had
green grass, and plenty of it, from
early spring till late fall. In conse-
quence she fairly outdid herself. June
pastures make Brindle happy and con-
tented, and when she's that she does
her best for you.
The average New York price for ex-
ira creamery butter in June, 1905, was
2015 cents. In January, 1906, it was
2615 cents. This is difference of 6
cents between June and January,
caused by the difference in supply.
Brindle didn't do as well in January

chance
Brindle's wants are few. A comfort
able shelter, pure air, little kindness
and sufficient food of the right kind are
all she requires. When she has these
she has chance, and she makes good.
Brindle has chance in June. With
pastures knee deep, with pleasant
weather and with no flies to bother her
her milk yield goes up by leaps and
bounds. That's the result of giving
Brindle a chance
Now, if you could surround Brindle
with the same pleasant conditions in
January as nature gives her in June
she would respond at the milk pail in
the same way Brindle is grateful
creature and repays her owner we'll
when she has chance But she is also
just. She pays strictly what she owes
and not cent more.
The dairymen have been crying for
many years for better breed Of
cows, but what old Brindle wants is
better breed of dairymen. If you want
her to do as well for you in January
as she does in June you must do as
well by her in January as nature does
in June-put up a silo and fill it for
her winter feed.-Kimball's Dairyman.

Live Dairy Practice

Do you know why your milk doesn't
test per cent? There is poor COW
or two in the bunch. Each COW has
her capacity for milk and butter fat
Find out what 1t is. Then you'll know
whether you need her in your business
more than the butcher does.
The Individual Cow.
Individual cows producing the most
milk or butter fat on a certain amount
of feed should preferably be used for
breeding. Only by breeding in pro-
portion to live weight and amount of
milk produced is it possible to ascer-
tain which individuals in the herd have
the best assimilative and productive
capacity.
knowledge Is Power.
Successful dairying involves consid-
cradle testing, both of individual cows
and of milk and cream sent to the
creamery or skimming station. No
dairyman can afford to continue to
milk cows unless he knows what they
are doing, and he is unable to know
this without weighing the milk and
testing it from time to time for its but
ter fat content. For this reason 1t be-
hooves every dairyman to have hand
tester at least. It will soon pay for
itself from a monetary standpoint, be-
sides adding much interest and salts
faction to the owner who is milking
the cows. It will enable him to know
which cows are his money makers and
what cows are his debt contractors.
Making Persistent Mixers.
Heifers, after their first calf, should
always be MIXED for as long period
as possible say ten months even if
only stripping and never allowed to go
dry about six months after calving, as
they often will if precautions are not
taken. This encourages a most valu-
able habit, that Of persistent milking.
The Registry Certificate.
When person buys an animal that
is claimed to be registered the purchas-
er should demand the certificate Of
registry and have the transfer of own
ership made with pen and ink on the
back of the certificate. This transfer
should give the name of the purchaser
and date of the transaction and should
be signed by the seller American Gull
tivator.
On the Dairy Route.
The intelligent, conscientious dairy
farmer, who is ever seeking to con-
dense time and labor, may find the en-
tire secret of success quickly summed
up in three great rules that stand at
every turn along the entire route of
dairying, simple. plain and straight
forward guide board pointing out with
immovable hand the royal road to sue
cess. The directions are spelled in big
capital letters and read, Cleanliness,
kindness and unf1agging energy.
Mrs. A. f. HOWE.
Quality First, Price Aftersvard.
Everywhere that dairying is carried
on there is a demand for better dairy
animals. Men nowadays go halfway
around the globe in search of pure
bred high quality dairy bull or an ideal
dairy COW. It is quality first and price
afterward. Dean w A. Henry, Wis

The Grange In Maine.

The grange in Maine has caused
laws to be enacted increasing taxes
on steam and electric railroads, trust
companies, Pullman corporations and
express, telegraph and telephone COM
panies. 1t has worked for the aboli-
ton of the telephone monopoly law,
which has caused the organization Of
seventy of the local telephone compa-
MES in the state.
At present the state grange is en-
deavoring to have the taxes increased
on the 9,O54,O00 acres of unincorporat-
ed wild lands, which are of immense
value and now paying only 21a mills
on a dollar on the valuation of So per
acre. Thus it will be seen what the
grange IN Maine is worth to the farm
ers' interests.

The ripe bean crop may be pulled by

Benefit of clover on the Land.

The chief value of blowing under a
crop Of clover lies, then, in the addition
of humus and it's associated mineral
plant food and in the addition of nitro
gen. BY the subsequent decay in the
soil of the turned under clover these
constituents are converted into avail
able food for future use for farm crops
and fruits While the growth and har-
vesting of other crops leave the soil
poorer in nitrogen, the growth of clio
yer, even when the crop has been bar
vested and the roots only left, leaves
the soil Invariably richer in this con-
