The Missouri Experiment Station at
Columbia has issued very elaborate
and handsomely Illustrated bulletin on
the most successful methods of fatten-
ing cattle by Dean II. J. Waters.
This bulletin summarizes the expo
rience and conclusions of about 1000
of the most experienced and successful
cattle feeders of Missouri. Illinois and
Iowa and contains also a summary Of
the results of a large number Of tests
with different kinds of feed, different
ages Of cattle, etc, conducted by the
Experiment Station of Columbia.

of the fat steer herd exhibited by the
college this season at the Interstate
Fair, Kansas City, the Missouri State

buried Seed.

The Department OF Agriculture has
undertaken Il series OF experiments in
tended to answer, IL possible, the old
question, How long can seeds remain
buried in the sol. and still retain their
power of gcruiuation:'
Many extraordinary stories have
been told Of the proIongation of the vi
tally of seeds during many years, and
even centuries, but very few actual cX-
perlments have hitherto been made.
DR.. Beal has reported that he has
found seeds that responded to gcrmina-
ton tests after having been buried
twenty years The seeds buried by the
experts of tie Agricultural Department
at the Arlington farm last year were
packed with dry clay in porous clay
pots, covered with Sauccrs and placed
mt various depths from e inches TO
3I feet. There are 30 complete sets,
in 1854 pots, representing 100 spc-
cies, 81 genera and "a families. Tests
are to be made at the end Of one, two,

Flax in the northwest.

The secorl factor making for the
new prosperity may be termed 'the dis
covery OF flax" For years there had
been 4 few scattering flax fields, but
it was only in the middle COS that the
Northwestern pioneer awOke to the dis
coyery that linseed oil was of more
truly golden hue, not only than the
wheat field, but than any gold-bear-
Ing quartz California ever saw. And
so the endless golden yellow of the
fields in August and the tInkling bells
in September or the flax field.
Those who have never heard the
ringing of the fax bells have missed n
truly wonderful sensation. The round
seed pods, smaller than peas, which
contain the seed, give Il faint metallic
sound which as one drives or walks
through a field, setting thousands In
motion, seems like myriads of intintcSl-
NAL bells tinkling so family as to be
all but inaudible Nor is the mere
sight of a fax field in the mellow Au-
gust soon to be forgotten. Imagine Il

blue more delicate than yiolets. Aud

closed in severe weather.
Many farms where sheep are kept
are equipped with Il barn cellar III
which the flock has been kept with
varying success The barn cellar is
an excellent place for sheep If rightly
arranged. There should be plenty of
openings to the south, allowing sun to
reach all parts of the stable so as to
keep it thoroughly dry Thorough
drainage Is essential.
There must be ventilation at the
rear of the stable. A bad practice is to
keep the sheep in stables on stable
manure says Farm and Home. The
fcrmentlng manure destroys the color
and texture of wool. A hint which has
been worth many dollars to me is TO
use only long straw, hay or weeds for
bedding sheep. If short straw or saw
dust is used it gets into the fleece and
is an everlasting nuisance.

Good Sheep Barn a Poor One.

A good sheep barn is a poor one.
This may seem to be absurd, but the
facts support such a statement. There
is no question but that many flocks are
rendered unhealthy and therefore less
productive by reason Of too close
housing. In few sections do sheep need
more than a wlndbreak and rain shed.
Some of our best shepherds have kept
their focks for decades with only such
sheds as would prevent the flock being
exposed to direct winds, rain and SNOW
storms

Cows Exposed to Cold Rnip,

The Arizona station has recorded the
results Of a cold rain on the flow Of
milk Of the station herd. The cows
were exposed for three days to a cold
rain During this time the herd de
creased 81 per cent in milk yield and
continued until It reached 30 per cent,
and It was a month until the cows gave
as much milk as before the storm.
This IS what might be called cash

cows from cold winds.
