the mother country that preferential tariffs can
not be expected on only one side. The probable
ity is. then that there will be no further extern
sion Of Canada's generous practice toward Great
Britain, though there may be something Of the
kind among the various colonies. 1t would be a
curious spectacle to see a universal system OF

Distance alone considered. tho flight of a ball
loon from Berlin to the heart of England Is not
at all remarkable. DR.. Wagner and his conf
panion travelled only So miles. whereas several
voyages are on record in which from 200 to
1900 miles were covered. The longest aerial
journeys hitherto, however. have been invariably
to the eastward OF the point Of departure. and
were promoted by taking advantage of a we'll
known current of air which sets in that di-
rection. On the other hand. the men who have
just crossed the German Ocean sailed directly
10 the westward. and in this respect their
achievement is unprecedented.

THE KITCHEN MILK ROOM.

Mrs. A. H., of Beatrice, Neb., writes:
"I always have trouble with my butter
during the winter, and In spite of all I
can do, I cannot make as good butter
during cold weather as during summer.
/ have to keep my milk and cream In
the kitchen, and / think that most OF
my trouble is due to this. I have a
good trade built up, and would like to
have some advice about the ARE of
cream and making butter"
Mrs. A. H., like many others, no
doubt has a summer dairy but
probably with no means of heating 1t,
so must take her milk and cream into
the kitchen during cold weather. / do
not see much chance to improve the
flavor Of butter. under these kitchen
conditions; for in spite of all you can
do the odors from cooking foods will
get into the cream, and once there 1t Is
in to stay. The farmer who keeps cows
and makes any p~retense at dairying
should supply his wife with a well
equipped milk room.

U N POSTS.

We believe every farmer should
study. this question and that general
ly there should be trees planted for
this purpose. Whether these paintings
should be catalpa or willow, may be
an open question Some will look with
amazement on the suggestion OF plant
ing willows for posts, but we have in
mind the experiments that the govern
ment and the railroads are making
with preventative. 1t is thought that
the soft woods when treated with
proper materials will last as long as
the timbers that have been considered
proper for posts, ties, etc., and that
the treatment will not be so expensive
but that sue posts may be furnished
at present cost of the better woods
rown. II this Is true, then the west
ern farmer with q grove or hedge Of
willows will be prepared so far as the
subject OF posts is concerned.
The soft woods are found to take
the preventative better ven than
the lard woods and as these grow
rapidly in our prairie soil we may be
In better shape to fence our farms in
the future than had been expected.

partment T., of agriculture, Washing

RAPE I'M TT CORN.

, We have frequently called attention
20 the sowing OF Dwarf Essex rape in
the corn fields for p~asturing with sheep
or hogs. Recently we We're through a
fifty-acre field in which about 500
ewes and lambs had been running since
the corn was in roasting ears stage
and were pleased with the results.
There was scarcely a e Of grass or
weeds OF any sort to be seen in the
field n the rape was eaten to the
ground. The blades were cleaned from
the stalks up as high as the sheep
could reach and the sheep had not In
Jured the corn. Since 1t became hard
and the other feed vas all consumed,
they have been eating corn, but not
wasting any. Ears that were started
at were cleaned Of corn entirely. Only
one cob was found with some of the
corr remaining on ii. This Is because,
We presume, that 1t Is easier to eat
from a cob that has been started than
to start at a fresh one. These sheep
were q mixed lot, some being native
grade Shropshires and others west
ems that a been twice wintered in
the corn belt. r..
IL more sheep were kept on our farms
and they were used to clean the fields
of weeds 1t would be getting some
thing for nothing" and less. These
sheep had not injured the corn until
all other feed was gone and h they
were not wasting any. With ape in
the corn field there will be less growth
of foxtail spring up after the last eul-
tivatton. and this alone will pay for
the cost Of the rape seed. Hogs will
find a great amount OF feed in rape
and the growing price and unreliable
ity of labor will warrant some loss OF
grain and then most likely be q gain
over paying what is demanded by men
who cannot be depended upon over
night.

To President Roosevelt and DR.. Long
this nature story is respectfully re-
ferred. The animal In question be-
longs to a gilded youth who has more
money than he knows what to do with,
and consequently spends it somewhat
boyishly. His retriever enjoys a scent
path every morning, and is exceeding
ly particular as to where he dimes. He
is now growing fat and lazy, and. al
though fond Of sneaking out for a
morning stroll in Central park. OBJ
jects to walking home again. His plan
is to watch for a hanson, IL going In
his direction at a walk, and slip into
II. When any attempt is made to dis
lodge him he simply displays two rows
of magnificent teeth and wrinkles his
upper lip In q curiously suggestive
smile. Most of the park keepers know
him, and give the cabmen his address.
Cabmen in the vicinity OF the park
keep a lookout for him and leave their
doors invitingly open When the dog
reaches home he remains in the cab
until the valet comes out to pay his
fare. Then he descends in a Ieisurely
manner and eats his luncheon with
appetite.

When corn was sold at 10 or Is cents
per bushel and a quarter OF a dol
lar was a high price, the farmer could
afford to put a blanket OF fat around
his cattle or horses and allow them
considerable exposure to the weather.
Though 1t was probably never eco
nomical and certainly not humanitar.
ian, to winter stock with only barb
wire shelter 1t certainly Is not in
these days. Feed Is high so Is lum.
Der, but the latter properly put into
buildings can be used many winters
while the former once assimiiated by
the animal will never be available
again for the same purpose. There
fore provide shelter for your stock. It
need not be expensive but enough to
keep off the storms and allow at least
"a quiet, reasonably warm and dry
place at nights. Men are put all day
in this wind and cold, but they want
a var place at night, so, too, It seems,
1t would be profitable to prepare for
the stock. Horses not at work will
winter with little shelter, and II feed
is plentiful, viii come out in the spring
In shape for a seasons work and be
better than II kept in a close barn
and fed heavily with grain.

HH&S
Never before have so many breeding
ewes gone through the markets and
back to the farms as this year. Main-
ly these have been range ewes, and
thus Will be free from the liability
of disease which follows some natives.
From Chicago these ewes have rome
into Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, In
diana and Virginia. Some have rome
to New York. Michigan has taken
feeders. but not so many ewes. As
Kentucky and Tennessee have taken
about m -third more than the usual
number Of ewes, there is to be ex-
pected an increase in lambs from
natl as well as to Chicago. Iowa and
Missouri have also bought from Oma-
ha and Kansas City, and the dealers
In this city have sent many from Da-
kota to Iowa farms.
Many OF these are aged ewes and
will be sent on to market with their
lambs next summer or fall. The sue
cess of this plan depends on the care
given and the success in raising lambs.
Many times the lamb sent to market
from the farm just before the begin
ming of the run from h ranges, will
bring as much money as IL kept till
the next spring. This requires good
feed from the time the lamb is dropped
Until 1t goes to market, but nothing
will take the place Of good pastures
for the ewes.
Experienced men have paid as high
as 81 per hundred for ewes In Chicago
to take out to raise lambs. The sea-
son is about over for this year, as
II Is time the mating was being done
Il the intention Is to sell spring lambs.
Some are deferred from this line OF
sheep farming because OF the distance
from market but others ship as far
with good satisfaction. We have been
well pleased with sending lambs TO
Chicago in past years.

The Importance Of considering the
'plant on which the seed selected for
growing the next crop Is not as a gem
eral thing considered as II should be.
Two rows OF corn, planted by an ex-
pertinent station in trial plots had
nearly half OF the stalks down on the
ground, W other rows had only three
or -four per cent so down. Yet IL seed
We're picked from the wagon at husk-
ing time there would be many ears Sc
lected from the former sort of stalks as
undesirable as they are. Potatoes from
a plant that has produced a number of
large, smooth tubers will be much more
desirable for planting than even better
specimens from plants that produced
only n good potato and a number of
small or rough ones. To tell anything
about these things the seed must be Sc
lected fISm the field. We would much
rather plant h small potatoes from a
productive plant han the large ones
from plants that did not produce but
the one large smooth tuber.
AS a man is Of little consequence in
h world without at least a reasonably
good physical being SO the plant Is Of
little consequence that Is not strong
and hardy. The man may by great at
tention to avoid unfayorable conditions
accomplish something OF good, but the
plant cannot be protected from the va
rtations OF the weather to the same ex-
tent h a many may are for himself.
Pick out suitable ears, grown on the
proper sort OF stalks, dry out well and
keep dry or put where they will not
freeze severely, or better both dry and
keep from very great cold and the time
spent will do much to prevent the poor
stand that is now being husked. The
loss In the corn crop OF 1907 from
planting ordinarily good seed would
pay many times the cost OF having had
strictly good seed corn. We do not for
get that the seed planted last spring
had unusual griefs to stand, but strict
ly good seed would have STOOD them
much better than what was generally
planted.

COR SHELTER.

Did you ever hear a man regret that
he planted a grove or a shelter belt
twenty or more years ago? Have you
heard others say: IF 1 had planted
particular place, "whsn I first came
here what a great advantage 1t would
be to the farm now" or words of that
purnort? Time is short looking back
wards and IL you are thinking OF plant
Ing some trees do not allow the idea
OF time TO prevent. The shelter OF q
grove in our colder climates is great.
Northern Iowa or similar ATTITUDES will
be more comfortable on a cold winter
day behind a well grown windbreak
han q hundred miles south without
shelter. We will never forget one event.
full cold stormy day In southern Mime
sofa, many years ago. when facing a
set of well put up farm buildings. Half
a mile or more away we could see the
cattle standing in apparent comfort
and we wondered, but suddenly there
was a change. u horses had cantered
into the protection Of a timber claim
grove and II seemed that the mercury
had risen 40 degrees in q minute.
Cattle and horses were nIbbIing at
the straw stack. their owner was work
Ing Eround with apparent comfort and
even i got warm In the pleasant sur
~roundings. That state Is ahead of Iowa
in the way OF shelter belts and on that
account the rigors of winter are less
felt than further south. The timber
countries are pleasanter In winter than
h prairies n corn was grown much
more satisfactorily in the big woods
country h in more &c -shern ATTITUDES
where timber was unknown.
With these thoughts In mind let us
have more shelter belts planted. Trees
are a great help "a the dry winds
country as they will modify the effect
OF those crop destroying freaks Of ma
ture. In n of our dry years the only
helds or corn that produced any appre-
ciable crop were those on the north side
OF h hills or north OF a shelter belt
OF trees. We see these things when
the winds, either hot or cold, blow. but
as trees cannot be planted then all is
forgotten about them when planting
time comes. Trees sap the soil, moth
ing an be raised near them" True,
but a field with a shelter belt will prob
ably in a series OF years produce more
than one without.
Shelter for he buildings is even more
important. A few rows OF evergreens
will add many dollars to the farm ten
or twenty years hence IL planted next
spring and properly cared for. A few
years only Is required before they will
need no attention further than keeping
the stock away from them. and their
usefulness has begun. Does any one
doubt the advantage OF a grove for
shelter? IL &c let him get out in a wind
where ii has a fair sweep and stand
still a while then get behind a grove
and compare III differences. Broken,
hiHy countries do not need the trees
as do more level sections of country,
but In the latter that are ia thing OF
beauty I'M joy forever" Stock gets
out OF the winds behind hills and barns
are put in protected places where the
face of the country will SO admit.
AYE, plant a tree, Jock, IL will be
growing while ye're sleepin'."
