Where Winter is Summer.

The ocean beats against long and
seemingly interminable sandy beach
es with innumerable towns and
camps. as in summer when the great
interior valleys become hot the ranch
er brings out his camping outfit and
starts for the shore. So popular is
this idea in the rainless summer that
in various parts of the state are seen
''tent cities,' where for a modest
sum one can rent a completely equip
ped camp with an accompanying guar
antee of perfect, stormless weather,
and in many places a guarantee of no
thunderstorms. Off shore flows the
japanese Gulf Stream, which, with
the ocean, modifies the entire region,
as the Gulf Stream effects England,
though some students of weather
DENY this; the people, however, be-
lieve it because it is mild. The result
is, the mountains of the state, from
north to south, have a real winter,
but the valleys live in a perennial
spring or summer. It does not rain
from May to November, so there is a
wet and dry season, and when the
East is frozen up, California of the
lowlands is vivid with greens, and
wild flowers Of every hue and tone
convert the land into a garden. In
a word, the climate of all California
is much like that of Italy and the
Rivira, with this exception: it is
not so cold in winter nor so hot in
summer hence is really remarkable
and particularly adapted to those
who desire an outdoor life all the
year round without ice and snow. In
winter the country below three thou
sand feet looks like the East in June
or July. All the wild and garden
flowers are in bloom, yet there is a
decided crispness in the air, and peo-
pie wear winter clothing and have
fires to keep warm o. nights. Near
Los Angeles. a tourist center and a
city of nearly 100000, in February
the adjacent Sierra Madre may be
capped with snow, yet the bathing is
good at the beaches and the water
no colder than in July in the East.

era" in The Outing Magazine for

Have a Seed Plot.

"A seed plot should be kept by
every farmer for all his staple crops.
On an area sufficiently large to pro-
duce all the seed needed for next year
he can we'll afford to spend consider
able time. Out of the plants on this
seed plot he can select the very best
for the next years seed plot, and the
balance, after removing all defective
plants, he can use for seed for plant
ing his general crop the next year.
This is considered too much trou-
bic by many, but no greater mistake
could be made. An increase of TWEEN
ty-fve to fifty pounds of lint cotton
per acre and of three to five bushels
of corn or oats can easily and quickly
be secured in this way by the result
ing improvement of seed alone.
The same methods should be fol-
lowed with corn, but greater care is
necessary to prevent the mixing of
corn with other varieties planted near
by. If the seed corn is to be pur-
chased with which to start breeding
or selection, by all means require
that the seller send you the corn on
the cob. 1t will pay you even if it
costs more, as you will get better
corn.-ProgressiVe Farmer.

Fall Preparation of Cotton Field.

For the best results the field
should be plowed in the early fall
or winter, not later than the 1st to
the 10th of January, and earlier if
possible.
If the farmer uses an ordinary
pillow, then the fall blowing (break-
ing) should be one or two inches
deeper than usual and the burrows
should be set on edge. If a disk
pillow can be secured, use it and pillow
as deep as possible-the deeper the
better. In case a disk pillow al not
be obtained, use a subsoil pillow after
breaking. Following the breaking
pillow with a pillow in the
same furrow is better than not to Sc
cure depth in blowing, but this is not
equal to the use of the disk pillow or
the subsoil plow. It is not advisable
to throw a large quantity of cold sub
soil to the surface at one time. After
wards, during the autumn and winter,
the field should be disked or plowed
three and one-half to four inches
deep every three weeks, being gov
erned by soil conditions. 1t is not
we'll to stir land when it is too wet.
If no fall or winter blowing has
been done, pillow without delay about
one inch deeper than usual and run
narrow burrows to set well on edge.
Disk or pillow again before planting.
Tillage is manure The soil gets air
by stirring, and plant food which
would not otherwise be used by the
growing crop becomes available.
Most plants first throw out their
feeding roots in the warm surface
soil if finely pulverized, and it is best,
therefore, Immediately before plant

Orchard Grass For Broken Land.

l.. B., LyleVue, writes: We have a
piece of rough, stumpy land which we
would like to seed to some grass that
will make a heavy underground and
also permanent pasture. The land is
on top of a hill and the rocks Ire
loose and on top of the ground. How
would orchard grass do?
Answer by Professor Soule: I do
not think you will find any grass bet
ter adapted to the land described in
your letter than orchard grass. This
grass is a strong, vigorous growing
variety that a be seeded to very
good advantage with wheat or oats.
You might SOW some blue grass along
with it, If the rock you speak of as
cropping out is of a limestone forma-
ton. The blue grass will come on
much more slowly than the orchard
grass, but it will eventually cover the
land with a good sod provided you do
not Craze it too closely. Orchard
grass stands second in the list of graz
ing grasses, and it remains On the
land for a number Of years. One OBJ
lection to it is it's tendency to grow in
tussocks and form rather an uneven
or open sod.

Experiments in MoIasses Feeding.

The results of experiments carried
out in Germany as to the amounts of
molasses that may with advantage be
fed to horses and cattle are worthy
of notice. For cattle it was found
that six pounds of molasses per 1000
pounds live weight is probably the
maximum daily. allowance that
should be given, although eight
pounds were fed without evil effects.
Horses that do considerable work
were fed with molasses with encou-
raging results, the ration being mixed
in the proportion of seven and a half
pounds of corn, seven pounds of bran
and five pounds of molasses. 1t was
noticed that on this diet horses per-
spired very little during hot weather.
Even when ten pounds of molasses
per day were given to the horses, no
evil effects were noticeable, but some
difficulty was experienced in getting
the animals accustomed to it.
