Champion Hen.

The $50 egg hen-the worlds
champions reported from the
Maine agricultural station. She
laid $50 eggs in one year, counting
from Thanksg living day to Thanks
giving day. Six years ago the
Maine station took up the matter of
increasing winter egg production
and all hens that laid over 200 eggs
especially laying during the win
ter months-wcrc selected as foun-
dation breeds. BY continuing this
selection number of hens have
been produced that have laid over
$40 eggs in year, and the end is
not yet. The average hen lays on
ly six or seven dozen eggs a year
and she lays them in the spring
and summer months when eggs are
cheap. Later in the summer she
mouths and lays no more until next
season, as rule.

Wealthy Farmers
In Wyoming.
They Reside so Miles From Rail.
road But Build up a
Big Industry.

Idaho farmers, especially those
residing in Long Valley and other
fertile sections distant from railroad
communication, could learn a val
liable lesson by visiting Alton, Wyo.
Alton is in what is called Star
valley, about so miles from Mont
pelier. The valley was settled by
a thrifty hard working class of
farmers several years ago. They
soon learned that their products
could be condensed, on account of
the long haul to market. They be-
gan dairying and today their cream
cry is doing a business of over
500, 900 per year. The farmers
are prosperous and their land sells
for more money per acre than pre-
walls in many places on rsilroad.
Speaking of the success of the
Alton people, the Cheyenne Tri-
bune says:
DAIRY cattle were found to be
as cheaply kept as beef stuff, the
diseases that attack such stock in
the east are unknown in the high
Wyoming valley and with a con-
tinual demand for good butter and
cheese, the creamery men found
they could offer fair prices for the
milk the year around.
1.-The result is that the Star val
ley, which supports population
of about 5000 people, has the big
gest creamery in the state, which
IN addition to supplying the home
demand, ships out butter and
cheese to wesern Wyoming, Utah
and even Washington and Ore
gon.
by condensing the products of
their farms into rich creamery pro-
ducts the expensive wagon haul to
the railroad is less prohibitivc
and with people all over the coun-
try demanding pure high grade
goods at any price there is never
any difficulty in disposing of the
pi oduct, in fact since the creamery
has been well established the main
difficulty is to meet the demand
meeting in successful competition
the products of creamcries and
diaries which have advantage of
location.

Potatoes For the
Dairy Cow.

w. j. Kennedy of the Iowa cx-
perimental station, in the Breed
9rs Gazette, writes interestingly
of potatoes as food FOR dairy an
imals:
but few experiments have been
conductci in the country for the
purpose of determining the feeding
value of potatoes for milk produc-
ton In several of the European
countries potatoes are used more
or less as feed for dairy COWS.
Some investigators have fed dairy
cows solely on a ration of potatoes,
the cows eating about per cent of
their live weight daily. When fed
potatoes exclusively the cows lost
in body weight but gave large re-
turns from the standpoint of milk
production. Raw potatoes give
the better results from the stand
point of milk production, while
cooked potatoes are the more valu-
able for fattening purposes.
potatoes contain u great deal
j. OF carbcnaceous matter, thus should
be fed in conjunction with feeding
stuffs rich in protein. Your sub

So far, the sulfate of iron solu-
ton is found to act definitely en-
musard, yellow dock, cocklebur,
smart weed, rag weed and Spanish
needles, while there is every rea-
son to believe that it will destroy
Canada thistle.
1t is at once appararent that
every section of the country will
share in the benefit of the dis
covery. The various weeds that
iron sulfate will destroy are found
to prevail in different localities.
The white daisy is familiar to
Eastern farmers, the rosin weed
to,Western, wild mustard is wide
ly scattered and Canada thistle grows
in most of the northern states.
The sprsyer used for the tests, we
are told, looks Ikea chemical fire
engine, bur has large copper tank
OF scvcnty-fivc gallons capacity
mounted on two wheel cart and
drawn BY one horse. Pipes filled
with holes extending ten feet from
each side of the machinery spread
fog-like spray over the field. A
pump, set in motion by the draw
ing of the machine, keeps a pres
sure of one hundred pounds on the
liquid. The arms are adjustable
SO that the spray is brought close to
the crop or in rrow places they
can be raised perpendicularily
The solution before using is
strained through fine wire sieve
to keep foreign material from the
reservoir. To quote further:
'Agriculturists everywhere con-
front the experimenter with the
question as to why the weed is
killed and the cereal left uninjurcd.
Various theories have been of
fered. 1t is a botanical question
of much interest. 1t is found that
sulfate of iron sprayed on turnips
will produce serious effects. Tur-
nips belong to the same order as
mustard. One theory of the dit
ference in effect is that it is due to
the varying quantities of oil in
plants. This has now been dis
proved by Professor Slender, of
Brcslau. A second theory held that
the difference in effect arose from
the position of the leaves, whether
more or less vertical, but this has
no apparent foundation. Still an
other argument advanced is that
the Ioughness of the leaves pro-
duces the difference in the re-
suits. The rough mustard leaves
were thought to retain the spray
better and therefor feel the full
effects of the solution. This
theory also is untenable. for there
are many other plants that retain
the spray equally we'll and yet es-
cape injury. 1t is probable that
the plants injured contain sub.
stances peculiar to the order, sub.
stances which react chemically
with the iron salts. This SUBJ
ject is being investigated by Mr.

AERONAUT
IS BURNED
Powder to be Used in Spect-
acular Descent Explodes
Pematurely.

Belleville, n. j., July 1G.-Eugene
Raymond, an aeronaut, who made an
ascension here yesterday was badly
burned about the legs, by a prema-
ture explosion Of powder that was to
be used in a spectacular parachute de-
scent
Raymond had a large metal tube,
resembling a cannon, attached TO his
ballon in place of car, and into this
he crawled before the ascent was be-
gun. He had the bags of a parachute
in his hands, and when he was a
mile above the earth, he was TO touch
ia spring that would shoot him feet
'firts out of the cannon
In some manner the powder was ex-
ploded before he touched the spring
and he was shot into the air, his toes
ablaze and the costume he wore grad
ually igniting AS his body shot
down toward the earth a mile below,
the wind famed the flames, which
cr'ept up to his hair and singed 1t
nearly off his head.
Raymond landed mile from the
spot where he made the ascent.
