American Agriculture.

| Although agriculture In America Is
young compared with some OF the Euro
pean and Asiatic countries, 1t has been
developed TO such an extent that the
older countries look TO us for ideas and
methods to help them solve the farm
problems they have to meet. Our sci
entlsts and investigators are among the
cultural nation we need stand aside for
none. To be sure, agriculture owes
many Of Its greatest scientific discoy-
cries to English, German and French
experimenters, but In aggressiveness
and practical development Of Ideas
America Is one of the leaders.
Other nations are sending their sci
entlsts to America to study how we do
things here. Our country presents most
Of the agricultural problems to be met
with In the countries Of the old world
and we are finding out how to solve
them, and the old world wants to know
how we do II. japanese expert is
now In the United States to investigate
our methods of improving worn-out
soils He says 1--WE have In Formosa
over 100000 acres under cultivation
and we want to find out how the United
States goes about 1t to improve the con-
dltlon Of It's land, SO we can improve
our country" This is but one Instance
OF where we are sending our Ideas
abroad.
We have every reason to be proud OF
our agricultural advancement, much OF
which is due to our State experiment

Burn Dead Animals.

In the attempt to stamp out hog
cholera and other contagious diseases
among live stock the matter of burn
ing all dead animals is one of consid-
cradle Importance. Outbreaks OF dis
ease have frequently been traced to the
careless disposal OF the carcass OF an
infected animal. Burning is much more
effective than burylng, as the germs Of
some diseases, as anthrax, for example,
retain their vlrihty for a considerable
length OF time. Then IN burying car
cases, unless they are placed very deep
in the ground, there is always more or
less danger Of their being rooted or dug
ont, Dogs will dig open such graves
and hogs will root them out
Those who have attempted to bury
hog or horse viii readily appreciate the
statement that 1t Is easier to burn than
bury them. A little kerosene and
brush heap will soon dispose Of a car
caS, with the certainty that all germs
are destroyed. Some recommend the
construction OF specially arranged
furnace for this work, but on the ordl-
nary farm this would doubtless be an
added expense. 1t will not be a diff
cult matter on any farm to gather
enough trash, such as brush, old rails,
etc, to burn dead animal and the ex-
pense Is inconsiderable. Anyway. 1t is
the only safe way to insure against In
lection.

Breeding Dairy Cows.

In breeding dairy cows man should
have definite object in view. Too
many shift from beef to dairy when
dairy products are low, and then shift
back again from dairy to beef when
beef rises In value. By this method a
man is constantly shifting from one
breed to another, and as result he Is
getting herd that is good for neither
milk nor beef. A man must have an
ideal toward which he is breeding and
then bend all his energies to that end.
This shifting from one breed to another
is a suicidal policy that will ruin any
man and any herd.-Kansas Expert
ment Station.

yellow Rust Parasite on wheat.

GLOW rust Parasite on wheat.
An instructive account is published
in the Experiment Record OF the De
partment Of Agriculture of the manner
in which the yellow rust parasite acts
upon susceptible and resistant varieties
of wheat In an experiment with Mich
lgan Bronze wheat, and "rust-proof'
Elngorn, young seedlings of each were
infected by placing spores on the leaves.
In the Michigan wheat the germ tubes
passed into the inner tissues aud devel-
oped rapidly, producing pustules IL
about ten days. In the case of the re-
sistant Elngorn wheat the germ tubes
made good their entry, but almost In
the beginning showed, through the mi
croscope, weakness and starvation, and
were unable to make further progress.
The wheat plant continued to flourish,
except for the small dead area where
the fungus entered the leaves. The rea-
son for this resistance is unknown, but
Is supposed to be due to some toxic
principles in the host plant.
