the skillful preparation and cultivation

Of grain was the largest where 5000
stalks were left per acre. or 39.46 bush

difference in the amount of grain Oh

experiment favors the planting of 5000

appears that the per cent of stalks fail

with the thickness of planting. it should
be remembered that the ears were so

STRAWBERRY BEDS.
Some Methods Employed For Protec-
ton of the Plants.

ton OF the FiantS.
Under this topic we must take for
granted that the plants are already
raised and that the methods employed
from now on are for winter protee-
ton rather than culture. Middle and
northern ATTITUDES require treatment
for strawberries differing from that of
the south The rigors of winter and
the heaving frosts of fall and spring
force the grower of these plants to
seek out protection.
A Breeder of Weeds.
Coarse stable manure is very often
recommended as mulch for straw
berries, but one who is posted is al
most sure to brand the author of said
recommendation as being more of 8
writer than a practitioner, remarks q
Michigan man in Orange Judd Farmer.
Manure is prolific breeder of weeds,
and the carefuls grower Of straWber-
ries soon learns the penalty that awaits
him who uses stable manure as a
mulch for berries.
Straw Mulch.
There Is better way of mulching
Strawberries than the above If one can
secure the material, and that is with
straw But in the Michigan fruit belt
straw is more expensive than is hay,
thus this system becomes at once pro-
hibitive Mulching with either straw
or manure should not be attempted un-
til after freezing weather sets in when
in the case Of straw it can be applied
to a depth Of about four inches over
the entire patch. With the manure it
must be more sparingly used.
The straw mulch is to be recon-
mended where the material is obtaina-
BILE, as it has value beyond the mere
protection it gives during the winter.
When spring comes the straw can be
left on the vines until quite late, thus
retarding the blossoming period, which
in turn heads off late spring frosts.
also making the crop several days lat
er than would be the case without the
mulch.

WITH THE SHEEP.
What to Do In the Days Of Wet and
Windy Weather,

Windy Weather.
One of the first essentials for start
ing into the winter with the flock is
shelter. There are rainy days in the
fall that make the sheep very uncom.
Portable if compelled to stay out of
doors, but If given shelter during the
night or while the storm lasts they
come out acting lively and apparently
relish the feed better than before the
storm began, says a writer in National
Stockman and Farmer.
During the winter months after the
flock has been taken in from the field
a good. roomy yard that is high and
dry and sheltered from the west and
north winds is good place in which
to allow the sheep to pass the most of
the days during pleasant weather.
Feed troughs for grain and racks for
coarse fodder are indispensable in the
yard. Sheep seem to relish feed bet
ter out of doors than when fed inside
the shed. After having passed the
day in the yard they are ready to go
into the shed for the evening feeding
of hay and enjoy quiet night Com
fort and enjoyment are essentials that
should always be considered.
1t seems as though we are appreciat-
ing the worth of pure air for live
stock on the farm more and more each
year. Instead Of shutting sheep in the
barn and compelling them to breathe
over and over again the impure air as
We did in former days we seek to keep
the sheep great deal of the time in
the open yards and in sheds well ven
tilated. A light, roomy shed with ven
tilation without draft and destitute of
rank odors is the modern ideal Of a
place in which to keep sheep. We
know now that the oxygen in pure air
is necessary for the making of good
blood. muscles, bones. nerve force
etc., and imparting life. health and Wig
or to the animals.

How to Pick Apples,

The methods employed at picking
time have much to do with the keep
ing qualities of the apple. To get the
best results we must handle the ap-
pies as though they were eggs and use
every precaution not to bruise and,
more especially, not to cut the skin of
the apple. so as to expose it to the
germs of the decays that will surely
enter through any abrasion in the skin
The apple should be picked by a twist
OF the wrist. giving either slight up-
ward or downward motion at the time
II picked this way few or no stems
VIII be pulled out. This twisting mo-
ton prevents to large degree break
Ing off Of fruit spurs.-C. j. Lewis.
