ply the land, the fertilizer and half
the seed and let second party come
in and do all the work, each taking
half at the harvest. One good point
urged for this practice Is that it is
mutually profitable to all interested.
Polanders frequently lease land in this
way and with the help of their fami-
lies and immediate friends handle
large amount Of work during the sea-
son. In fact, it is said they will han
die more than twice as much as they
would working as day laborers.
In the cut, from New England Home
stead, are shown specimens of the on
ions that contributed toward such sat
results.

Ranches In the West.

The great 10000 and $4,000 acre
ranches all over the west are disap-
pearing under the invasion of the
farmers who are satisfied with 100 or
200 acres Of land and who are making
these little patches remarkably pro-

ranches will be unknown and when the
country now monopolized by them will

FOR ASPARAGUS.
Suitable Fertilizer, With Formula For
Home Mixinu

F1OHue
There are a great many acres of as
paragus raised where a complete fer.
dlizer is used and many OF them are
commercial brands bought fro's deal
ers for that express purpose fer
tflizer that will III I'VE per cent nj,
togen, phosphoric acid and 10 pot
ash Is as good an all around article as
can be recommended for general use,
writes grower in Rural New Yorker
A formula for this mixture for aspara-
gus only would be nitrate of soda, 300
pounds; sulphate of ammonia, 100
pounds; tankage. 200 pounds; acid
phosphate, 1000 pounds, and muriate
of potash, 400 pounds. Bone may be
substituted for tankage if more de-
sirable. The main object of either
tankage or bone Is to get a mixture
dry enough to drill. In discussing fer
tilizers for this. crop l do not wish to
be understood as advocating a COM
plete fertilizer.
When Applied.
In my own practice I use acid phos-
phate and potash, three parts of the
former to one of the latter Mix thor
oughly and apply broadcast very early
In the spring or late winter and work
In the soil with future civilizations.
The farther down near the roots this
is left when feeding time begins the
better. The heterogeneous part of my
fert1lizer-usually nitrate of soda-I
apply broadcast when cutting season
is over. l fully indorse the mixing of
fertilizers at home for this or many
other crops in preference to paying a
greater price for an unknown article,
and further than that the grower who
knows his soil and its requirements
can feed more intelligently by apply
Ing that which is deficient in larger
and Withholding that which
Is not needed.

An instance of where Connecticut

Of Arthur Hobart Of Franklin county,
Mass, last fall. From two ana q half
acres Of his land there was harvested
1850 bushels of Yellow Globe Danvers
onions. These sold at 80 cents a BUSH
el or more at the time Of harvest, and
In the entire lot there was not more
than ten bushels Of small onions. Fer
tilizer was applied at the rate of one

AZ the original earth nebula con-
densed the lighter materials were dis
trtbuted quite uniformly over the en-
tire surface, but these are now miss
Ing from one hemisphere, the reason
seeming to be, as Professor G. 81, OAR
win demonstrated in 1879, that por-
don OF the earth's crust has been
thrown of by tidal action, forming the
moon. The surface density of the
present continents is about 81, the
mean density of the moon appearing
to be 8.4, or not far from that of the
missing continents to the depth reach
ed. The moon, it Is computed, EQUALS
a mass having the surface area of the
terrestrial oceans and depth of thir-
ty-six miles, and it is concluded that
the crust when thirty-six miles thick
must have been torn away over three
fourths of the earth, the remainder
breaking apart to form the eastern and
western continents, with Australia and
other Islands. These continental and
island fragments fioated like great ice
foes on liquid materials Of a density
OF 81 or more. This great rupture
gave the earths surface its chief irreg-
ularities, with mean difference Of
three miles between the levels Of the
continental plateaus and the ocean
beds, and as the water condensed in
the cooling depressions, with the Pa
ciic where most Of the moon had
been, the dry land was formed that
has made human life possible. We
may consider that without this change
the earth would be now in the condi-
ton Of Venus, with water over its
whole surface.
