Mnrt Raise Many Crops.

Twenty years ago hundreds of North
Dakota farmers bought butter, eggs
and even potatoes and cabbages at the
village stores, but they were not real
farmers. merely wheat raisers. They
depended entirely upon one crop, and
when that failed, distress followed.
James J. Hill quickly taught them the
folly of that kind of farming, and to-day
the States diversified crops are equal
to those of any other Northern State.
The educational movement was not
that Mr.. Hill had any love for the
farmers then, nor has now, but he had
a big railway TO feed and was forced
to teach the farmer how to produce the
freight. Now the experiment stations
are carrying on the education COM
menced by Mr.. Hill and are doing 1t
better.

How to Apply Fertilizers.

Should fertilizer be applied In the
hills or broadcast? 1t may not be a
mistake to apply very little over each
hill as a starter" but it Is better to
broadcast. All fertilizer must be dis
solved before it can be utilized, and
the greater the surface over which It
is spread the more water 1t will re
ceive. The roots of nearly all plants
spread and grow near the surface, and
have as great feeding capacity of from
the plants as near them. To apply fer
tilizer In the hills is to concentrate it,
and much of 1t will be unused OF lost.
The best results are obtained when 1t

Managing the workers on a farm is
science In itself. 1t is a science that
few have studied sufficiently. Plan
ming out the work so mat it may be
done in the best manner and in the
least time Is equivalent to a saving in
dollars and cents. Not only should the
work be properly done and at the right
time, but the time between different
pieces of work should be as small as
possible. Here is a point at which
great waste occurs. 1t is like a man
forgetting something at the store and
having to drive back miles to get 1t. No
man can properly manage a set of
workers without putting some thought

Feed Cows Their own MIX.

An endless chain arrangement that
on its face appears to be the most
economical scheme ever devised has
been started by Prof. Err, of the Kan
sas State Agricultural College. Prof.
Err takes the milk secured from cows
on the college farm, converts 1t into
a powder and feeds it to the cows, max
ing what Is declared to be the cheap
est of all the COW foods.
The food invented by Prof. Err Is
made Of buttermilk. He has perfected
a system of drying buttermilk and
then converting it into a powder. This
dried buttermilk contains about 20 per
cent Of protein. twice as much as cot
ton seed meal contains. and can be
manufactured for one and a half cents
pound. Thus a food twice as rich as
cotton seed can be manufactured at
approximately the cost of the latter.
One hundred pounds OF buttermilk
will make from nine to ten pounds of
the finished product and as the esti-
mated waste Of buttermilk in the
creameries of Kansas Is 100000
pounds daily. 1t Is figured that by ths
adoption of this progress a saving OF
100000 can be made yearly In Kan
sas alone.

Experiments in Cultivation.

Deep cultivation Of some crops Is
equivalent to pruning the roots. This
is especially the case with corn, which
sends it's roots in every direction. close
to the surface Of the soil. Expert
ments in oultivsting show that when
the roots were cut inches, inches
and & inches below the surface the In
crease Of crops was greatest when the
cultivation was shallow. the greatest

The object should be to simply loosen
the top soil when cultivating corn and
to avoid cutting the roots as much as
possible.

One of the mysteries of Mexico is
presented by the Maya Indians. who
inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains in
the lower part OF Sonora. They have
fair skins, blue eyes and light hair, and
students of ethnology have always
been puzzled to account for them.
There is a tradition however, that
these Indians are the descendants of
the crew and passengers of a Swedish
vessel wrecked on the Mexican coast
centuries before Columbus discovered
the new world, but this tradition is
founded on nothing more substantial
than folklore tale current among
them that their ancestors came over
the big salt water hundreds of moons
ago.

Prof. w. L. Carlyle of the Colorado

teen are expected to foal this year.
Fourteen very high-ciass yearling colts,

At the present time seven very fine
foals have come to hand this year and
the indications are that they are supe-

those of the very highest class will be
