Sowing Corn for Fodder,

The silo has opened advantages to
dairymen in other countries where corn
does not mature. In England, where
the conditions are unfavorable for the
production Of matured crops Of corn.
the farmers sow corn for fodder, store
it In the silo, then grow crop Of tur-
nips on the land, from which they took
the fodder. The same system can be
practiced in this country, but our farm
ers are content with one crop, and thus
do not derive as much from the land as
Is possible to be obtained. The land in
England is high, and farmers pay high
rents, but they do not hesitate to use
manures and fertilizers freely, securing
large crops In return.

Feeding Animals.

In the feeding Of animals the farm
er, by his knowledge of the difference
between flesh-forming foods and those
that form fat, is enabled to so combine
the different foods as to provide for
all their wants Knowing that the "al-
buminoids' (nitrogenous foods) pro
duce muscle (lean mean) and milk, he
should, In order to allow for heat and
fat balance" the foods for the purpose
of avoiding too much of the one kind
and not enough of the other. On an
average, the proportion Of nitrogenous
foods to the carbonaceous is as one to
six (though the proportion may vary,
according to circumstances), or, rath'
er, he should add six times as much OF
the carbonanecous as he does of the nj
trogenous. The conditions, however
affect the proportions, as less carbon ID
required In summer than in winter
hence during the warm season the nj
trogen may be increased and the car
bon diminished; but, II the weather II
very cold, the proportion of carbona
ceous matter, on the contrary, shoult
be increased.

Predicting Frosts.

One Of the most important fruits Of
the establishment of the Mount Rose
weather observatory In the Sierra Ne
vada near Reno, New, at an elevation
Of 10,SO0 feet, Is the discovery of rule
by which the appearance of frost in the
Truckee and Carson valleys below may
be predicted with positive assurance
from twenty-four to thiry-six hours in
advance.
BY comparing relative meteorological
data for San Francisco and Reno at
$500 feet elevation, and Mount Rose,
10000 feet elevation, constant CORE
spondence Is observed between fall in
pressure and fall In temperature, ena-
bling frost representations. to be made
with certainty. The station was estab-
lished originally with the idea of gath
ering information which would be avail
able in predicting the weather condi-
tions for the districts farther east.

Gleanfuna.

When farmers are busy in the spring
they are liable to neglect many matters
which should command their attention.
Get the implements in readiness and
sharpen the tools. The grindstone Is
valuable adjunct to good farming, If
thorough work is desired.
1t Is no easier to keep poultry than
any other stock, as labor and proper
management must be used to meet sue
cess. Less capital may be required
with poultry, but it must be judiciously
expended, or loss can result as easily
as from any other source. Experience
is of more value than capital in poultry
raising.
The food left over on the ground fer.
ments and decomposes in very short
time on warm day, and 1t therefore
becomes one of the main sources Of
gapes In chickens and cholera in fowls.
Filth in the summer season should
never be allowed. 1t is we'll to do away
with troughs entirely, feeling only
whole grains and scattering the food as
much as possible.
1t Is, perhaps, the proper system to
water the animals at regular periods,
especially horses; but animals differ,
and may desire water at times when
they do not receive 1t. To give all ami
mails free access to water Is not con-
trary to the natural law, as they are
sometimes better judges Of eating and
drinking, so far as they are concerned,
than their owners.
Ensilage should not cost the farmer
over 81 ton, and fifty pounds day is
large ration for a COW. This is forty
rations per ton, at 21a cents a ration,
and hence will provide for one COW for
forty days There Is no food that can
be produced at lower cost. The en-
silage Is not Of itself a complete food,
as the best results are derived when
hay and grain are also allowed; but II
cheapens the cost Of the whole and pro-
vides succulent food in winter, when
change occurs from grasses to the regu-
lar dry rations Of that season.
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1907-06-14
Small Fruits.

frequently two crops may be had on
the same plot during the year, such as
early peas followed by late cabbage, or
turnips may follow onions; but the
soil should be rich and well supplied
with manure or fertilizer. One advan-
tage with a small garden Is that during
the dry season some Of the crops can
be watered by the use Of the hose or
sprinkler. Inexperienced persons should
not expect complete success the first
year, but there Is nothing too difficult
to learn, and the second year should
prove satisfactory II the season does
not become too dry. The principal
small fruits are blackberries, strawber-
rtes and raspberries, but gooseberries,
currants and grapes are also included.
The most profitable fruits are those
that receive attention during the entire
year. The strawberry will thrive and
bear well with but little cultivation on
some soils, and often receives no care
after the plants have been set out, 9TH
er than to run the cultivator down the
rows once or twice, but 1t VIII pay well
for any extra labor that may be ap-
piled, however. The largest berries are
grown from plants In single stools, but
the largest yields are obtained from the
matted row system. The first essential
Is to get the young plants in the ground
as soon as possible, so as to afford them
an opportunity to grow and make head
way before the dry season comes on
High winds and a dry soil will make
quick work Of young plants. The row:
should be just wide enough apart tc
admit Of the use of the horse hoe, and
the ground should be kept very loose
around the plants In order to guard
against drought as much as possible.

Fruit Tree Planting.

For fruit tree planting, when the
sub-soll Is clay and apt to be water
logged, not only should it be well drain
ed first, but the bottoms Of the holes
in which the trees are planted should
have placed in them some coarse rubble,
to act as drainage also. Apart from
such material helping to keep the roots
out of the clay below, 1t serves also to
keep them fairly dry and aerated, and
that is very important for the future
health Of the trees In making holes
on such ground, throw out to fully
three feet wide and twelve inches deep.
Into each hole then put four inches Of
old brick and mortar material, or
clinker, or other hard, coarse material,
well trodden and leveled. Upon that
put, If obtainable, pieces Of turf, upside
down, then three inches Of soil, and
plant the trees. In that way not only
will the roots be kept near the surface
and be healthy, but because the trees
are on slight mounds, they can be fed
each summer with mulch Of manure.
Too much trouble can not be taken in
planting trees on stiff soil, to keep the
roots near the surface.

Lime for Funpf.

There is a fungus which sometimes
attacks carrots and turnips, causing de-
cay at the roots, or misshapen
growth, or a whitening Of the leaves.
This may be prevented by liberal SOW
ing Of air-slaked lime upon the soil,
thirty or forty bushels per acre, and
narrowing it in before the seed is sown,
as the fungus lives in the SOIL But 1t
Is usually better and cheaper to put
the root crops on new land where this
fungus has never appeared.

Worship Is Independent Of walls.
True religion is the root Of all re-

The heights never are scaled by the

The overtime sermon makes the

You cannot fire the hearts of men

You lose sense as soon as you ignore

Polishing the head alone often para.

The church that lifts the fallen nev.

The ear ready for slander makes the
lips ready to slay.
The greatest shame Of all Is to fee

The pulpit often mistakes the thun

A man Is not sound In life because
he has much sound on his lips.
