OF Interest to Farmers

pies of seed wheat over a wide area In
the Sacramento and San Joaquin val
leys of California to determine the
general character of the seed used by
the farmers of. the state. In general
the samples showed that the quality
of seed used by most farmers is lack
ing In purity, perfection of develop
ment, weight per bushel. freedom from
weeds and freedom from bunt. It is
stated that practically all investiga-
tors have found the use of large,
plump seed and of a high weight per
bushel the most profitable. No perma-
nent benefit is believed to be secured
from the frequent exchange Of seed
more vigorous strain of the same type
Is obtained by the exchange. The use
of seed from heavy yielding plants, a
plump and heavy grain, a clean wheat
and a pure variety are considered by
him the most important points in seed
selection.
In this connection the results secur-
ed by E. G. Montgomery Of the Ne
braska station in an experiment with
seed wheat and seed oats selected by
the use of the tanning mill are Of in
terest. In these experiments heavy
seed wheat as separated by the fan
ming mill did not show an improve
ment In either yield or quality of grain
as compared with light or unseparated
seed, and it is believed that no perma-
nent improvement in quality or yield
is to be expected from the use Of the
tanning mill in seed selection.
At first thought it would seem that
II '1ike produces like" the large or
heavy seeds should produce the best
crop. However. we must recognize the
individual plant as a unit for selection
rather than the individual seed. If q
single plant of wheat be taken and the
kernels thrashed out it will be found
that all sizes of kernels are produced
by the plant, some large and some
small
AS every wheat plant contains both
heavy and light seed. the tanning mill
gives almost the same kind Of wheat
so far as inheritance is concerned, In
the light wheat as in the heavy. II
must be remembered that reference is
made here to the permanent results
which may be expected from the use
of the tanning mill and that its use or
the use of screens for removing OBJ
noxious weed seed is in no way discour.

New Castle. Ind, Dec. 2.-Indica-
tons now are that the rescue fire de-
partment in this city may be caused
to disband. The town is in a peculiar
state and it is claimed the fire protec-

by some citizens but others declare
such would be too expensive. 1t is
claimed the rescue company is divid-
ed into two factions and as the conse-
quence poor work has been done. The
company now employed is governed
by state laws.

Delicate Women

From a thin, nervous wreck,
miserable and wretched, am now
enjoying splendid health, and it is
all traceable to DR.. Miles Nervine."
MRS. MAUD B. OPLINGER,
Philadelphia, Penna.
AS rule women understand the
nature of their delicate organism,
but overlook the wonderful influence
their nervous system has upon their
general health. They do not realize
that nearly all their ills are directly
traceable to the nervous system.
Thousands of women have regained
their health and vigor by the use of
DR.. Miles Nervine.
It restores strength to the entire
nervous system.

BARREL FOR AcETIFIcATIoN OF HONEY
WINE.

BARREL FOR AcETIFIoATIoN OF HONEY
to be made into vinegar from time to
time. A good wine or alcohol barrel is
carefully painted on the outside to pre-
vent corrosion of the hoops. A vent
hole is now bored in each end Of the
cask near the chime on the side next
the bung and covered with a fine
screen to keep out insects. At the bot
tom of one end a spigot is inserted and
perpendicular row of gimlet holes
bored and fitted with wooden plugs to
act as gauge. Fresh wine. which
must frst be fully fermented. can be
added from time to time through a
tube passing in at the bunghole and
ending near the bottom Of the cask.
In this way the active film will not be
disturbed by drawing of little vine
gar. or adding a little fresh wine The
tube must not be of metal, but can be
of glass where available. In this re-
gion a large stalk Of native cane. the
joints Of which have been perforated
with hot iron, makes a very service
able tube. A tin funnel may be used
in pouring the wine into the tube. A
similar apparatus has been found very
serviceable In France for converting
table wine waste into vinegar. Such
wastes under suitable temperature
conditions yield good vinegar tn nine
ty days. The generator is started with
mixture of about three-fourths wine
and one-fourth good vinegar. When
once started no new vinegar need be
added. 49,

Waste Of SiIaae.

"RSte OF SfIa9e.
The following is a Canadian farm
er's method Of preventing waste Of
silage:
Each year as frequently as silos
are filed there is considerable waste
owing to the surface layer coming in
contact with the air. The loss varies
with the condition Of the corn and
with the attention it has received after
1t Is placed In the silo. In seasons of
plenty it is a common practice to SIM
ply fill the silo and take chances on
what would spoil. This is a very
wasteful practice. 1t is possible to
bring this waste down to q minimum
by little attention after the silo has
been filed and thoroughly tramped.
Last year, owing to the scarcity Of
corn, We made an extra effort to pre-
serve all that we had. As a result Of
these efforts there were scarcely two
inches of spoiled silage. After the
silo was filed and thoroughly tramp
ed We put a two inch layer Of clover
chair on It. We then dampened this
chaff with q barrel Of water in which
had been dissolved a ten quart pail of
salt. This brine proved to be the
most effectuai preserver we had ever
tried. On the surface, when we came
to feed the silage. the two inch layer
on top peeled or slick and clean and
left good sifage Immediately under
meath. Try this scheme on your silo
this fall, and you will save much fod-
der that would otherwise be spoiled.
1t Is much better than char and grow
ing grain such as Is commonly used"

Cobs For kindfino.


First. provide a large substantial dry
goods box. Place in a wood shed and
fill it with old cobs. Second, take any
old pail holding about two and a half
or three quarts Fill that about quar-
ter full with kerosene oil and hang on
a stout nail conveniently near the large
box. Then fill the pail with cobs, stand
ing each on end SO that the ends will
be submerged in the Oil. In the morn
ing take six cobs from the pail, place
in your stove, lay your large wood on
the cobs and touch cobs off with a
match. You will soon have a roaring
hot fire. Nor need you entertain any
fears about it not going. for the cobs
have absorbed some Of the Oil and will
burn for half hour or more with in
tense heat. Even green wood may be
used if baked in oven for an hour or so
before the fire is allowed to go out the
night before. But everybody knows
that green wood is not as easy to kim
die as seasoned wood. The good wife
always appreciates a supply Of dry
fuel.
OF course when you take any cobs
out of the pail others must be put in to
take their places. In this way a very
valuable supply Of excellent kindling
is always on hand, and you always
know exactly where to find it. If you
have no cobs. any miller is usually
glad to let you have them for carrying
them away. or at the most a miller will
charge you only rs cents for two
horse double wagon box load, and
since it is only necessary to use six
cobs to start one fire they Will last
long time. Besides, they are very
handy-no muss or dirt already split
and ready for USE
