The abundant rains Of the present
season have, caused shallow roofing
of all crops grown on land that Is
not thoroughly drained. This applies
especially to corn, which naturally
roots deeply.
Corn should be cultivated as shall
cow and Otter. as POSSIBLE, The shlaa1 l
low cultivation will save the roots
that run near to the surface OF the
ground, and the frequent cultivation
will conserve the moisture.
Deep cultivation cuts the feeding
roots of the plant, and reduces the
yield. E&=
Let the sun have as little as pos
sible to do with the curing of hay.
Hay that is sun cured and bleached
has lost much of the aroma that
makes it palatable to stock.

The world is full of men who do
commonplace things in common

sure way to side-step a trivial occu-
patton.
Education is the one lever by which
we can lift ourselves. Education in
noble and refined thought that re-
suits only in helpless, emasculated
elegance, is more harmful than bene-
fetal. An adaptable, useable educa-
ton is the imperative demand of the
hour. The aching void is in the ar

my Is too often regarded as an end
instead of a means, whereas the

What do you know about goseber-
ries measuring an inch and a half
long, and three quarters Of an inch

the largest we have ever seen, with
out an exception, were raised on the

the gooseberries to this office, where
they are on display. He has three
bushes of this variety, and the vines

heavy fruit. They are, known as
the English gooseberry. Mr.. Milan
has dozens of bushes of another

Farmers in the vicinity of Bowes-
mont are beginning to realize the ex-
tent of the disaster of two weeks ago.
1t is estimated now that so per cent
of the crop in quite a large area Is
completely ruined. AS an indication
of the immense amount of water that
fell it is stated by William Johnson,
a we'll known farmer living there,
that an empty barrel which had been
left standing in his yard had 10 inches
of water in it after the storm.

have sprouted early in the spring, on
fall blowing. ILL.,
l may say in general that the
french weed, and all other weeds,
fare badly in a crop >otation that in
cludes corn, where there is constant
stirring of the ground until late in
the season, and some grass, crop, as
timothy, bromo, or alfalfa. A five or
seven year rotation, adhered to, care
in cleaning the grain, the destruction
of weeds along the road and field
sides, will make weeds comparative
ly harmless, altho they never will be
at a point where we can afford to
stop fighting them.
With reference 10 this particular
weed, go after it with all the power
you have If it is tolerated it will
become to you what it is to us in the
Red River Valley, one of the most
serious of the drawbacks to grain
farming. Be especially careful not
to sow it in with your seed.
Sincerely yours,
Hugh J. Hughes.

puts them into business. A young
man who is a good penman, can
keep a set of books by double entry,
is familiar with business methods and

forms OF business papers; if he can
formulate, spell and punctuate a

| Hugh ]. Hughes, at the head of the
journalistic department of the Agri-
cultural college, is trying to solve the
hobo problem. We have never had
much experience with these gentle
men of leisure, but generally manage
to get along with them pretty we'll,
iby giving them hand outs whenever
they come around to the back door,
which however has not besn very Of
ten this season. We have found. that
the hobo will work the hardest when
there is a drink in sight. Farmers
might solve the problem by keeping a
we'll filled jug of old rye around for
the Weary Willies. We hired hobo
once to do some work in the garden.
He worked faithfully for three days,
drew his wages, and disappeared. A
few weeks later, we CHANGED to go to
the county Jail, and there was Mr..
Hobo. He told us he had gotten
gloriously drunk the same night we
paid him, and got into fight with
brother of his class, and stabbed him
several times. The love of strong
drink is their undoing, as we'll as
their incentive for hard work.
Mr.. Hughes explains that the hobo
is the greatest obstacle to diversi-
fed farming in the west. We know
there are many of our farmer readers |
who have had experience in dealing
with the hobo gentry. We will be
pleased to receive communications |
from our farmer readers who have |
had such experience, and no doubt |
hey may be able to throw some light |
On the handling of this class of peo-

his farm east of the city. The weed
is rubbery sort of thing, with
circular leaves, abe ut half an inch

tain dozens of tiny seeds, and Mr..
