Sweet corn for forage crop can
hardly be excelled when planted for
that purpose, at several different
times, so 1t can be continued for a
considerable time in proper condi-
ton to be fed with ears on. from the
time the kernels begin to show until
1t begins to ripen. Hungarian or mil

Soil Condition.

The physical or mechanical condi-
ton of the soil is the all important
factor, as 1t has more to do with the
quantity and quality of the crop yield
than any other one thing. If the seed
and root bed is not properly prepared
all the after cultivation cannot bring
the highest yield. No matter how
much moisture you have conserved in
the soil below or how completely you
may keep the weeds out you cannot
reach the high limit of yield without
close and careful attention to the
preparation of the soil.

To Kill Sparrows.

A method of getting rid of the Eng.
lish sparrow pests is described by a
poultry breeder. whose yards were
visited by the sparrows in such num-
bers as to seriously interfere with his
profits. He fastened small box about
four inches deep. on post five feet
high, placed Just outside OF his poultry
yard This box he kept supplied with
poisoned chick feed. The sparrows
entered cordially into the new feeding
program and several hundred of them
left bodily testimonials to the palata-
bility of the food.

Forty thousand Acres Of Land, the

Trlal-Rallroad May Have TO Re-

Spokane, Wash, Oct 1.-Forty
thousand acres of Yakima Indian
land valued at 100000, and the va
lidity of a treaty made by Isaac L.
Stevens first territorial governor of
Washington. and Kamalchan, chief
of the Yakima tribe in 1855, are
involved in an action by the United
States against the Northern Pacific
Railway company. now on trial before
Judge Edward Whitson in the federal
court here. The government seeks to
prove that the boundary Of the land,
held by the railroad, is the main ridge
Of the Cascade range, as stated in the
treaty, while the defense contends
that the boundary, as interpreted
when the patents were issued is the
watershed of the Klickitat and Top
penish rivers. A survey of the tract
was made in 1890 and the boundary
established on the mountain ridge.
This was followed by a resuryey in
1900, when It was reported to con-
gress that an error had been made
in interpreting the treaty by showing
the boundary to be the watershed of
the two streams already mentioned.
If the government is sustained the
company will have to relinQuish its
claim.
