Ration for Cows.

Experiments conducted last year ot
the West Virginia Agricultural Station
go to show that, while a ration of grain
given to COWS that are on pasture NAV
keep them In somewhat better physical
condition and keep up their flow of
milk the Increase in butter fat is not
SUFFICIENT to pay for the cost of the
grain ration: This would seem 70 no
on the assumption of a flush pasture
and that the cows would eat additional
grass to take the place of the higher
priced grain ration.

To Prevent Tomato Rot.

The disease often attacks plants that
are not sprayed. 1t is first noticeable
as small black or brown spots on the
leaves and stems of the plants, occur
ring first on the lower and older leaves.
out with favorable weather it spreads
rapidly till the plant is defoliated and
the spots on the stems have coalesced
into irregular blackish patches. If a
piece of bark with these spots be ex-
amlned under high power microscope
hnumerable small, crescent-shaped
bodies may be seen. These are the
frultlng spores of the fungus. Spray
with Bordeaux mixture.

Humane Slaughter of Animals.

The American Society for the Pre-
vcntion of Cruelty to Animals will
shortly begin experiments with a new
method for killing animals. Henry
Bergh, the treasurer and former pres
dent Of the society, has invented an
air gun Of large size, working like a
pneumatic hammer. The society some
time ago offered a reward of $500 for
an improved and humane method for
Strengthening purposes. Mr.. Bergh
thinks his invention fulfills the require
ments of the society for an improved
device for Strengthening animals.

An experienced date grower Of Call.
fornia who visited the lower Rio
Grande region of Texas two years aQo
discovered large numbers Of date palm
trees, some of them very old but all
of which were barren. He proposed to
pollenize the trees artifcially and
share in the proceeds, a proposition
which was eagerly accepted by the
owners. Hundreds of these trees are
now bearing delicious fruit. The poor,

Let Women Run Incubator.

Please do not get the idea that the
incubator is so eyerlastingly automatic
that you do not need to give it any at
tention. The result with the use Of an
Incubator is a great deal like the re-
suits with the use Of other things. They
will be in proportion to the effort you
make to great extent. or course
I'm not personally acquainted with you,
but as long-distance proposition [
would a heap sight rather you would
turn your machine over to your wife.
The women folks have more natural
good sense in raising poultry, and you
can bet your boots they look after the
pennies and dimes in whatever they
undertake. While a man that is accus-
toned to dealing in big money often
overlooks seemingly immaterial things
that go to make the use of incubators
and brooders a success.-M. NJ. John

Without waiting to hear Mr.. Drum

He had no disposition to discuss the sub
ject in the presence of the boys who were
standing on the piazza.
Mr.. Drummond followed him into the
store, and Joshua accompanied him. He
was terribly angry with Walter, and de-
termined to get revenged upon him
through his father.
"Are you going to let that beggar pitch
into me like that?" he demanded. HE

The I Price ogttered BY tn, Amer'-
Can TOBACCO C9mp.aalgTysas
REFUSED BY SOCIETY OF EQUITY


''It's all off, was the Mconic
message from the room in which
the representatives of the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company and the Ex-
ecutive Committee Of the Burley
Tobacco Society were in confer
ence at Winchester that announced
to the waiting crowd of growers
that negotiations for the. sale of
the pooled tobacco of the 1906
crop were ended, leaving the
buyer and the seller farther apart
than ever. After spending Thurs
day afternoon and Friday morning
at the warehouse and carefully in
specting the samples, Messrs. r.
X. Smith and II. A. Walker, rep
resenting the American Tobacco
Company, made a proposition in
writing to take 10000 hogshesds
of the pooled tobacco, all grades
to be included and to pay an aver
age of twelve cents pound. This
bid was promptly rejected by the
Sales Committee, which declined
even to submit it to the District
Board, the members of which were
waiting below to be called together
to approve any action that might
be taken.
The conference ended at 4:3O
O'Clock. The growers remained to
consider the situation and decide
upon their future course.
The Executive Committee gave
outa statement. drawn up by j.
Campbell Cantrill, in which their
position is set forth. AS a coun-
ter proposition they offered to sell
10000 hogsheads at the price
named in their pooling agreement,
fifteen cents a pound. All mem
bers of the Society are called on to
stand firm and not raise a crop
next season.
THANK WILSON AND O'REAR.
In addition the organization an
nounces its intention of appealing
to the courts and the Legislature
if necessary to drive the American
Tobacco Company from the State
of Kentucky. Gov. Wilson is
thanked for his efforts to bring
about a settlement of the tobacco
troubles and Judge f. g. O'Rear
is warmly commended for his
speech he made at Frankfort.
The chief reason why no sale |
was made was because Mr.. Smith |
wanted to buy only ten thousand |
hogsheads.
