Growing Pumpkins.

Growing lot Of pumpkins in the
field of corn Is an old practice, but II
is doubtful If pumpkins SO grown are
as profitable as when grown as a sep
arate crop from corn. The pumpkins
will prevent the proper cultivation of
corn, as working the corn destroys the
pumpkin vines, the result being that
late weeds get chance to grow and
mature. 1t is urged In defense of
growing pumpkins in the corn field
that they do not interfere with cult
vation until the corn is "laid by" but
much depends upon the land, rainfall
and thoroughness of cultivation. Corn
should never be "lald by" as long as
weeds and grass can have an opportu-
nifty to grow, cultivation being given it
If 1t is possible for a horse to pass

Experiment with Lambs.

Some breeds of sheep attain heavy
weights If pushed from the start, but
they must have rich pastures and be
given plenty of grailL A full allowance
of hay will be sufficient, with but little
grain, but some of the mutton breeds
can consume over two pounds of grain
each per day. An experiment with
lambs at the Iowa station showed that
100 lambs of various breeds consumed
34,501 pounds Of food In ninety days
and gained 4,67S pounds, while seven
selected individuals of the breeds con-
sumed 23,792 pounds of fool and
gained 1921 pounds. The gain was at
the rate of one pound increase in live
weight for each 7.37 pounds Of food
(dry matter) Of all breeds tested, and
one pound for each 7.25 pounds of food
by the seven special breeds, the food
consisting of corn, oats, bran, oil meal,
turnips, mangels, pea hay, clover hay
and timothy, the average gain being a
little over half pound day. The
cost of the gain in live weight was 2.Ss
cents per pound for the selected breeds
and 2.93 cents for the Others This
does not include the fleece, labor or
manure. The lambs sold at Si.75 per
hundred pounds, live weight, and the
yearlings at $425. Shropshire year
lings dressed over 62 per cent Where
early lambs are gotten into market the
prices received are sometimes very
high, and the growth of the lambs is
promoted by liberal feeding and care
The object In calling attention to the
mutton breeds Is to show the impor-
tance of feeding lambs and sheep, In
stead Of depending on cheap lands and
scanty pastures. In the summer give
the sheep good pastures and grain In
winter, feed variety Of food, using
plenty Of hay and grain, and give them
comfortable quarters at night.

Hens in Summer.

The cheapest way to keep flock of
hens In summer Is to turn them on a
range, and let them pick up all the
food required, as they will I'll their
crops several times day with bugs,
grass seeds, worms, etc. When fed
grain during warm weather the fowls
are liable to become too fat, In which
condition the hens do not lay and are
then also more liable to disease. Eggs
may not be high in summer, but they
can be produced at very small cost
at that season II the hens are made to
seek their food

some New York Climber..

When all has been said there is no
city on earth where merit is so quickly
recognized and rewarded as in New
York. A boy enters the service OF a
railroad corporation and at the age OF
% he is general manager of a great
traction system. True, he has dis
tinguished lawyer and statesman for
an uncle, but he starts at the bottom,
and his promotion is due to his own
exertion. Such is the career of Oren
Root.
II. II. Vreeland, a brakeman with
out pull, raises himself In a, short pc
rlod to the presidency of the Metropol
itan Railway Company. Within two
generations all the spectacular for
tunes of New York have been made
from nothing.
Reward of merit comes quickly in
other fields. Charles Z. Hughes, 9
comparatively obscure lawyer, is Sc
lected to conduct an important inves
tigation in which the whole country /:
interested. Without having previously
held Office, very novice, he is made q
governor.-Broadway Magazine.

Crop Rotation and RoOt-Aphis.
From the fact that in the midst of
the corn belt, and where the root-aphis
is known to prove destructive under
certain conditions, almost complete i'm
munity is secured where a system Of
crop rotation has been carried out for
many years, involving but one corn
crop in the cycle of rotation, 1t Is self
evident that this measure offers the
greatest protection from the ravages Of
this pest, says a government report.
Indeed, 1t is only where such a sys-
tenn of crop rotation is not practicable
that the root-aphis need be considered
in farm practice. To the eastward,
where there is more general rotation
of crops, this pest does but little in
Jury
Unfortunately, local conditions, often
extending over large sections of coun-
try, will not permit of crop rotation
being generally adopted, and some 9TH
er plan more feasible must be put into
practice. Two other methods may be
followed. One of these is practicable
throughout the corn-growing section Of
the country in seasons Of not more
than normal precipitation during the
time intervening between the first
blowing of the ground and the first
cultivation Of the young corn. The 9th
er is perhaps best adapted to the south
ern portion Of the country on account
of the milder winters.
