HANDLING OF A PEA CROP.
Valuable Suggestions From Nh. Calt.
we'll, Of Wayne County.

u6hs vi Huy NJ UuuMtJs
A tremendous crop of pea
vines will be harvested this sea-
son. Farmers are considering
how they can best save the pea
hay and doubtless will be bene-
fitted by reading the plan of Mr.,
Wade H. Caldwell, of Wayne
county.
Mr.. Caldwell writes to The
Progressive Farmer as follows:
There has been a number of
excellent methods of saving pea
vine hay given by your CORES
pondents, but in most cases they,
to use a congressional term, have
had riders" that rendered them
impractical for immediate use
by the average farmer.
Nov, using a tedder and
storing in barns is fine, / ina
CINE, but | never saw a tedder
save in the Fair grounds, and
but few farmers in my section
have barn-room enough to store
more than half a ton of hay at
the time. Now what the aver
age farmer wants at the present
hour is the best method by which
the most hay in excellent condi-
ton can be saved out of doors in
shortest time, at least expense
and labor. So l will give the
manner in which | have saved
from Is to 20 acres of peavine
hay yearly for ten years, and
without the loss of a single stack
when properly put up.
"Cut in the morning and rake
and stack in the evening of the
next day (if it rains wait till il
dries-peavines are as good hay
after a weeks rain on them as
much of the in-shipped article
If the crop is heavy, rake direct
ly to the stack; if light, wind-row
and then rake to stack; never
use a cart or wagon for this,
Cts too much labor.) Pile hay
around pole two feet deep-after
being gently packed down with
fork never get on stack at any
time), then nail on two cross
arms, then pile on to six or seven
feet and put on two more cross
arms. Then build up till you
can just stand on rake wheel and
top off nicely with fork. Have a
forkful of grass to top off with.
Make stack to contain six or
seven hundreds pounds of cured
hay. This size stack is more
economical in keeping and hand
ling than either the larger OF
smaller style as suggested by
some, for they cure out better
than the larger, and the weather.
waste is less than the smaller
ones. Then they contain just q
nice wagon load, and, as a gen.
eral thing in the busy season, a
farmer has just only time al
once to fetch in that much"

Comparative Pathology.

1t has only been within the past two
decades that much has been learned
about comparative pathology. 1t has
long been known that the astrological
or cellular structure of animal tissues
in all species of animals is the same.
The idea long prevailed that cancers
and tumors Of various kinds found in
the human family were peculiar to the
genus homo. With the study and re-
search of the diseased conditions of
animals it has been clearly demon
strated that a cancerous growth may
be found in man, horse, OK, sheep, hog,
dog and even the chicken, and so far as
the study of delicate sections stained
and studied under the microscope are
concerned, they are found to be identi-
cally the same. The same can be said
of the other new growths. Some new
growths are harmless, other kinds are
dangerous to the life of the animal.
The pathological museum Of the
Veterinary Department Of the Colora-
do State Agricultural College has been
greatly enlarged. A special room has
been provided and additional cases
purchased. In this museum can be

Apple Notes.

Colorado fruit is slowly coming to its
own. "Cold Storage" a trade paper,
published in London, England, in the
issue of August Goth, says that "The
great centers of the apple industry in
America are in New York state, Mis-
souri,, Illinois, Colorado and the Pacific
coast" So far as the production of
apples of size, color, quality and fancy
trade is concerned. Colorado should
certainly be included in such state
ments. The area of good fruit lands in
our state will perhaps never permit US
to rank first in acreage, but we may
well be satisfied with the money re-
turns and the profits to the growers.
In the same article it is stated that
the prospective apple crop in America,
according to estimates made by the
Agricultural Department, the average
throughout the entire country will be
about SO per cent. of full crop, as
compared with "A per cent. of full
crop in 1907"
Private advices state that the crop
in the Middle West has been nearly
ruined by apple scab. This is fun
gous disease which attacks both fruit
and leaves. When badly infected the
apples are made unsightly by the scab
spots and the leaves turn yellow and
drop prematurely. Spraying with Bor-
deaux mixture has been used for a
number of years to hold such diseases
in control. but this year the spray has
done nearly as much damage as the
scab. owing to the continued rainy
weather. Under such condition some
of the copper in the spray mixture
seems to be made soluble. When this
occurs the copper attacks the fruit and
causes it to become rusty and often
much misshapen.
We have yet to find any traces of
apple scab or any Of the other common
fungous diseases of the eastern orchard
on the apples in this state. We believe
that we are warranted in predicting
that these troubles never will gain
foothold in this climate and altitude.
While trosts may injure our crops oc-
cssionally we may congratulate our
selves that we are by no means heir to
all the orchard ills, as few Of the dis
couraged ones have seemed to think.
So long as Bordeaux mixture continues
to be practically unknown to our or
chard men we may know that we have
a distinct advantage over many other
sections.
While seasons like the present are
somewhat discouraging. they should
make US optimistic for the future, for
it all goes to show that serious over
production of fine apples, a condition
which SO many have long predicted, is
scarcely possible.
