Falling In Love.

I do not doubt that as the world goes
on deeper sense Of moral responsible
ity In the matter of marriage viii grow
up among us. But 1t will not take the
false direction OF ignoring these our
profoundest and holiest instincts. Mar
rage for money may so, marriage Tor
rank may go, marriage for position
may go, but marriage for love, be-
lieye and trust, will last forever. Men
In the future will probably feel that a
union with their cousins or near reia-
tions is positively wicked; that union
with those too like them In person or
disposition is at least undesirable; that
n union based upon considerations OF
wealth or any other consideration save
considerations of immediate natural
impulse Is base and disgraceful. But
10 the end of time they will continue to
feel In spite of doctrinaires that the
voice of nature is better far than the
voice of the lord chancellor or the
royal society and that the instructive
desire for particular helpmate Is a
surer guide for the ultimate happiness
both OF the race and of the individual
than any amount OF deliberate consul
tatlon. II is not the foolish fancies of
youth that will have TO be got rid OF
but the foolish. wicked and mischie-

Comparison of Methods With Corn.

ment station.
In a comparison of methods of plant
ing, as an average for four seasons,
surface planted corn has yielded GEO
bushels more corn and 469 pounds
more slower per acre than the listed
corn. The surface planting has given
the best results in the wetter seasons,
while the drier seasons favor the list
ing method of planting at the Kansas
station
In preparing the seed bed for corn,
as an average for four years, the
method of listing early in the spring
and splitting the ridges at planting
time has given an increased yield of
SOP bushels per acre when compared
with the land which received no early
cultivation. The early listing has given
better results than early disking. and
the listing has also conserved more
water in the soil than the disking.
Corn planted in cold. wet soil in the
bottom of listed burrows is placed at a

disadvantage and often makes slow,
backward growth during the early part
of the season. but it has the advantage
of surface planted corn in the latter
part Of the season, especially If dry,
hot weather prevails, since the roots of
listed corn lie deeper in the soil and
are protected with a thicker soil mulch
than the roots of. surface planted corn.
which are often exposed above the
surface of the ground and can only be
covered by killing the corn, which re-
moves the soil from between the rows
leaving the deeper roots exposed and
the ground furrowed and open, favor
ing evaporation of soil moisture List
ed corn is more easily cultivated and
kept free from weeds. than surface
planted corn and also has the advan-
tages which result from level culture
since the plan is to gradually fl the
burrows during the season, leaving the
ground level at the last cultivation.
BY the use of the furrow opener at
tachment to the surface planter some
of the advantages Of listing corn may
be secured with less of the disadyan-
tages. One of these attachments, disk
furrow opener, has been tested during
the past two years in comparison with
surface planting corn. AS an average
for the three trials the corn planted
with this attachment yielded 4.91 bush
els more grain per acre than the listed
corn and 1.3 bushels more grain than
the surface planted corn.
In the lister versus planter trials the
largest average yields of corn from
both the surface planted and listed
plots We're secured by planting May IL.
AS to the selection of seed, choose
ears which are cylindrical in shape.
nine to eleven inches in length and
seven to nine inches in circumference.
according to the variety. Do not use
the long. slim ears. because this type of
ear invariably has a relatively large
cob and shallow kernels; select ears
having straight rows of deep, medium
rough. slightly wedge shaped kernels
which are well filed at the butts
and tips. The corn should be firm on
the cob. Avoid ears with smooth ker-
nels. which tend TO become round or
peg shaped near the tips of the ears. A
smooth ear usually has shallow kerr
mel, while deep kernel goes with a
rough or medium rough indentation.

writes ]. Hugh Mckinney in Farm
and Isifeside. For the first two weeks
each calf should have quart of whole
milk three times a day, care being
taken 10 feed it at blood temperature.
During the next three weeks half a
quart of skimmilk should be added to
the whole milk at each meal When
the calf is FIVE weeks old it should be
so developed that feeding twice a day
will be sufficient, also dispensing with
the whole milk and giving about three
quarts Of skimmilk twice a day.

meal is used. 1t may be prepared in
the proportion of a cupful of meal TO
one and one-half quarts of water put
into a common stove kettle and kept at
a temperature just below boiling for
three or four hours, which reduces the
meal to a kind Of jelly. This is mixed
with the slzimInilk at the rate of about
a tablespoonful to a pound of milk and
may be gradually increased up to a
cupful when the calf is three months
old BY this time the stomach viii be
strong enough to assimilate and digest
other food, and he should be taught
to eat little bran, oats, clover or any
other dainty that he can be persuaded
to consume.
The second summer is perhaps the
most critical period in the life of an
animal intended for early beef. While
experience has shown that there is
very little difference in feeding inside
or outside, so far as gain in live weight
is concerned, the latter method will
prove the less expensive. When fed
inside it is absolutely necessary that
the ration consist of a certain proper
ton of green feed. To a certain extent
ensilage win answer this purpose, but
does not seem to have the same flesh
producing effect as the green grass.
OF all the grass mixtures with which
the writer is familiar, oats and vetches
with a little clover or alfalfa hay are
the most suitable. All things eonsid-
cred, however, it is preferable to turn
them out about the first Of June, being
careful to keep them on good pasture,
experimenting it with small quantity
of meal.
In September they should be grad
ually accustomed to stable conditions
by taking them of the grass part of
the time, especially with the occur
renee of frosty nights. and given a feed
of silage and clover hay in addition to
the grass and meal. In October they
should be put on regular ration.
Steers that have been fed properly up
to eighteen or twenty months Of age
should be getting about one-half pound
of meal per hundred pounds of weight
and gradually increased, SO that when
they are sold they will be getting near
~ a pound Of meal to- q hundred pounds
live weight of the animal.

SOME GRANGE HISTORY.
Men Who Founded the Order Just
After the Civil War.

After the Civil War.
About forty-two years ago in the city
of Washington a few men put their
heads together to see if something
could be done for the farmers of the
southern states, where agriculture then
lay PROSTATE because of the civil war
believe that the coming together Of
these men and what resulted from
their coming together was momentous
in its results IN the interests of the
farmers of America and even the
world ] believe that their names will
live when the names of many now Of
fame win be forgotten. Let me name
them here. They were O H Kelley,
John Trimble, F. NJ. Mcdowell, j. r.
Thompson. A. B. Grosh, William
Saunders and w NJ ireland.
What was it that these men did that
as it seems to me, was of such conse
quence and Importance? They organ
lied and put into actual working con-
dition the Order of Patrons of Hus-
bandry, commonly known as the
grange SO far as know It was the
first organization of real farmers in
their own interest in the history of the
world. The fact last stated, if it be a
fact, is in itself of profound signifi-
canoe. Through the ages men and
women, too. have toiled upon the land
But through the ages it was not until
the last half Of the nineteenth century
that conditions were 50 that these toll
ers could get together and consider
why and how and for whom they toll
ed and wherein their toll could be a
better, a brighter, nobler thing fer
them. and not for them only. but for
ALL The time has not yet come when
this has been appreciated. but it win
come.
Once fairly started, the order spread
with astonishing rapidly until it over
ran the country. Is it surprising that
IN the flush of this unexpected success
these farmers would go too fast and
too far and that reaction would come !?
Certainly not. 1t could hardly be 9th
erwise. The reaction came, and with It
hOk a lilly dIfQ sVDiONQa.
But let it be noted that before this
decline in numbers and influence the
Order had done something to such ben
eft not only to farmers, but to the
country at large. that If it had done
nothing else its existence would have
been more than justified
But. though decline and depression
came to the grange, death came not
It's sickness was not mortal In fact
the sickness only proved the vitality
and strong constitution of the patient
This, too, is significant If the time
had not at last come when farmers
were able to work together the grange
would have gone down to rise no more
Since then the steady, healthfuI growth
of the Order and its work and achieve
ment in the interest Of the farmers is a
thrice told tale It's membership is
great and constantly Increasing. Mich.
