ment station.
In Il comparison of methods of plant
ing, as an average for four seasons,
surface planted corn has yielded 6.65
bushels more corn and 400 pounds
more slower per acre than the listed
corn. The surface planting has given
the best results in the wetter seasons.
while the drier seasons favor the list

In preparing the seed bed for corn,
as an average for four years, the
method of listing early in the spring
and splitting the ridges at planting
time has given an increased yield OF
5.O2 bushels per acre when compared
with the land which received no early

better results than early disking. and
the listing has also conserved more

SUGAR BETS.
Details Of Necessary Work During

Details Of Necessary Work During
the Growing Period.
As soon as sugar beets are large
enough to mark the rows cultivation
with the horse or hand hoe may be
commenced. Cultivation must not be
postponed except for unfit condition of
the soil IL the grass and weeds appear
above the ground at the same time
with the beets.
When large fields are cultivated the
horse hoe may be used. This plow
frees the spaces between the rows of
beets from weeds. and the guard pre-
vents the growing beets from being
covered by the loose SOIL
The Process Of Thinning.
When the beets show four leaves the
process Of thinning should take place.
II the rows be eighteen inches apart
a vigorous plant should be left every
eight or ten inches. Careful selection
should be made and all the puny
plants destroyed. 1t is better to save
the vigorous plants even If regular in
tervals are not preserved. but no space
should be left greater than from twelve
to fifteen inches In extent Much Of
the thinning work can be done with a
narrow hoe, but when the plants are
very close together at the place where
the preserved plant is to grow the work
must be done by hand 1t Is well to
give a thorough hand hoeing at the
time Of thinning. and the subsequent
cultivation In most seasons may be
carried on with horsepower
When More Advanced.

Tree Labels.
In the fruit plantations labelling is
very necessary. but even here there
are plenty of small labels that can be
attached to the branches and do not
look unsightly. Those made Of very
thin sheet copper on which the name
is indented with hard pointed stick
or awl are excellent. as they are practi-
cally everlasting, indelible and not un-

Potash For Fruits.
Potash for fruits" has been the cry
for so long that many fruit growers
are misled as to its use. 1t Is true that
the "out 60" Of potash from the soil is
relatively great, as shown by analyses.
and ii the soil lacks this ingredient the
trees are not fruitful. But 1t is becom
ing more and more apparent that in
many orchard soils potash is more
abundant or more available or is less
needed by the trees than was formerly
thought

disadvantage and often makes a slow,
backward growth during the early part
of the season, but it has the advantage
of surface planted corn in the latter
part of the season, especially If dry,
hot weather prevails, since the roots OF
listed corn lie deeper in the soil and
are protected with thicker soil mulch
than the roots of surface planted corn,
which are often exposed above the
surface of the ground and can only be
covered by killing the corn. which re-
moves the soil from between the rows,
leaving the deeper roots exposed and
the ground furrowed and open, favor
ing evaporation Of soil moisture List
ed corn is more easily cultivated and
kept free from weeds than surface
planted corn and also has the advan-
tages which result from level culture.
since the plan is to gradually fill the
burrows during the season, leaving the
ground level at the last cultivation.
By the use of the furrow opener at
tachment to the surface planter some
of the advantages of listing corn may
be secured with less of the disadval-
tages. One of these attachments, disk
furrow opener, has been tested during
the past two years in comparison with
surface planting corn. AS an average
for the three trials the corn planted
with this attachment yielded 4.91 BUSH
els more grain per acre than the listed
corn and 1.3 bushels more grain than
the surface planted corn.
In the lister versus planter trials the
largest average yields of corn from
both the surface. planted and listed
plots were secured by planting May II.
AS to the selection of seed. choose
ears which are cylindrical in shape,
nine to eleven inches in length and
seven to nine inches in circumference.
according to the variety. Do not use
the long, slim ears. because this type OF
ear invariably has relatively large
cob and shallow kernels: select ears
having straight rows of deep, medium
rough. slightly wedge shaped kernels
which are well filled at the butts
and tips. The corn should be firm on
the cob. Avoid ears with smooth ker-
nels. which tend to become round or
peg shaped near the tips of the ears. A
smooth ear usually has a shallow ker-
mel. while deep kernel goes with a
rough or medium rough indentation.

have proved superior in productiveness

Handling Rhubarb.

Some growers begin pulling rhubarb
as soon as the stalks are six or eight
inches long and ship in third bushel
baskets. They claim to get more out
of it in this way. 1t is a question
whether in the long run this is better
than to let the stalks get full length
before beginning to pull. Fsi'!
Whatever plan is adopted, it Is well
to bear in mind that it does not pay to
fill the packages with small, stringy
stalks and top them out with nice
large ones. Better make two grades
and pack honestly.-Farm Journal.

Will Vote for a Local
Option Bill.

Senator Everett Colby referred to the
he spoke at a meeting in Barradale's
Hall, East Orange. He made the point
that persons who talk casually of the
repeal of the Bishops law do not
speak precisely, and that what they
mean Is a repeal of the Werts act, the
real excise law, to which the Bishops
law is only an amendment.
THE Werts act" he said, prohibits
the sale of liquor OH Sunday. as II had
been forbidden for n hundred years
before. That is the law the people
want to have changed.
If 1 could. l would close up every
saloon on Sunday because I believe that
il is for the best interests of a majority
of the people. The only way to solve
this liquor problem, however. is to let
the voters of each municipality decide
at the polls whether they want, first,
absolute prohibition; second. beer sold
six days a week only; third. beer six
days and Sunday as we'll: or fourth,
beer sold six days and during certain
hours on Sunday.
There are some persons here in this
audience who believe in local option. l

the settlement of this question, and a
local option bill Is introduced, | will
