It is better to err on the safe size
and keep the forms up for coupie

curing with all too great frequency
and hurry to occupy those buildings

work, dry measures of concrete shouiu
be one of cement, three of coarse, clean
sand and six measures of clean gravel,

into dust. Where greater strength Is
required increase the cement proper

HARVESTING BEANS.
MICHIGAN Grower Tells How no

Reans grown commercially in this

TENDER. ! always believe in securing
nv beans before the leaves drop. just
as soon as the beans are fairly ripe l
begin TO cut them without waiting I'M
til they get hard. | use an ordinary
bean cutter. taking two rows at a time.
7 have men follow and place two rows
Of cut beans or four original rows in
one. Two men and team follow and
Mace these on wagon preparatory TO
hauling to the barn. Two men and
one team can clean five acres a day.
At first made platforms of rails in

was unnecessary and gave it up. Now
nut down a layer of straw, then put
on three feet of beans. l then spread
over another layer of straw, and then
follow with beans, and so on. nave
never had beans spoil in this manner,
and | often fill my bay full to the top.
Do not try to thresh your beans be-
fore three to six weeks after they are
nut into the barn. Here is where a
great many make mistake. Beans,
like most grains, are much inner II
they are permitted to Thoroughly
sweat in the barn. When the thresh'
ing machine comes be sure that the
concaves are low enough to prevent
the cracking Of the beans. Then have
YOUR machine nfan stay right by the
machine. 1t is then easily possible &c
have the beans threshed properly
without splitting, and there is no neec
of having any trash as the beans come
from the machine.

WEEDS IN THE PASTURE.
Now Them Before They Have Chance
to Go to Seed.

From this time on weeds will be IN
evidence in the permanent pastures
as well as in the meadows Inc
weeds of the permanent pasture are
mainly ragweed, dog fennel iron
weed and the different varieties OF
docks. As we have pointed out for
some years, the main reason for their
existence, especially in the permanent
nasture. lies not in the fact that the
weed seeds are abundant in all soil,
hut that the stand of grass is not thick
enough to keep them down.
OF course it is folly to allow these
seeds to increase by neglect to NOW
them, and, therefore, one OF the nrst
after.harvest jobs is to take mower
and 20 over every pasture, whether
permanent or in rotation, and then &c
over every stubble field that has been
| seeded to clover and while clipping
hack the clover and thus thickening Il
nm prevent the development OF weet
seed
The great point we wish to impress
upon our readers, however, is that I'M
reason why these weeds appear is be
cause the stand Of grass is deficient
We have seen permanent pasture
this wear in which there is no sign o
weeds. These pastures are SUPERB
Every available spot is filled VIII
grass roots, and there is feed enoug
for two animals and only one to ca
It. This means long, late fall pal
ture and fat stock.
How prevent this weed growth
You can not do much now, says wa
lace's Farmer. All you can DO
to keep these weeds moved down
prevent further seeding. Then ne!
spring provide yourself with a goo
disk drill and drill in clover and til
otby Just when the frost is going o.
of the ground. This will thicken
your stand of grass; thicken it up
such an extent, il the land Is ri'
enough, as to double the pasture al
do away with the unsightly wee
without the trouble Of keeping the

POINTS TO REMEMBER.

Every farmers family should have
all the good fruit it can use the year

The condition of the highway In
