where they could easily collect big
cargoes Of drift weed and bring It to
( France to be burned for the fertillZ
ing ashes. Capitalists told him. how
I ever. that they did not think 1t would
pay to carry the weed so far. and the
money was not raised.
1t Is asserted by some authorities
that the great deposits Of nitrate of
soda which are sent from Chile TO all
parts of Europe and the United States
to be spread over the farm lands were
formed by the decay Of huge masses
Of sea aweed when the land was sunk
under the sea. Undecomposed parts of
seaweed. II is said. are still found
there
The attention Of the Cape Colony
government was recently called to the
fact that very large quantities Of sea
weed are constantly being washed
ashore along the northwest coast. and
at last accounts the government had
sent for samples Of the weed 70 deter
mine its value as q fertilizer.
Sir HumphrT Davy was one Of the
first to recommend sea weed as a fer
tilizer about century ago. For gen.
erations the inha bitants Of the Chan
mel islands have gained fair living
by collecting and burning the weed
and selling the ashes as manure
These ashes are also largely used in
the British isles and along the Nor
wegian and French coasts.
The publica tons Of the United
States agricultural department say
that the use Of seaweed as a fertilizer
Is increasing in this country. that for
coast the weed is utilized by the farm
ers for fifteen 10 twenty miles inland
and that It is especially favored for
he stimulation Of clover fields Rye
beach is almost always strewn with
he weed, and few lands ever show 80
Iuxuriant growth Of red clover as
those In the neighborhood Of this
peach
The seaweed thrown up on the
shores in the neighborhood of Cape
Town has long been regarded as an
expensive nuisance. The city govern
nent has for years been paying team
tiers to collect the stuff, haul 1t away
nd bury it. The amount of weed thus
disposed Of has been about 1900 tons
year.
The city authorities have now seen
new light and are spreading the
lews among the farmers that the |
reed Is very valuable fertilizer.

Cows are subject to rheumatism,
says a writer. and it affects them in
the legs between the knee and the hip.
The following treatment is recon-
mended by the writer: First Of all
provide a comfortable. warm. dry, well
ventilated stable and well lighted. but
projected from strong drafts. There
should be an abundance Of clean. dry
bedding The food should be soft
easily dlgestible. slightly laxative, and
the water clean. pure and cool. Give
half an ounce Of saltpeter three times
a day At the outset Of the treatment
give one pound Of epson salts in half a
gallon % water and occasional smaller
doses afterward 10 keep the bowels
open. II you can locate the pain rub

long interval may elapse before the
watering place is in commission.
The first requisite is, Of course, a
supply Of running water. Then a
substantial stone foundation should
be laid below the frost lIne-an iron
supply pipe as well as a waste pipe
being brought up through this foun-
dation. On this foundation can be
erected as simple or as elaborate a

rough boards can easily be set up for
any rectangular shape, the boards be-

More Money In Live Stock Than erair

More Money In Live Stock Than Grain.
The value Of farm animals is in
creasing rapidly, suggesting that
farmers Of the west are going more
and more into general farming. not
depending 50 much on raising grain
for market. The statement is made
by the American CultivatOr. The
value of farm animals is placed at
about 5000 100000 or one-ffth of
the entire value Of farm property.
The vfluc Of receipts at leading mar
ket centcrs for about 50OO0.OOO head
Of cattle. horses, hogs and mules will
total well over a billion dollars, this
sum Of the leading markets only, and
probably nearly as much more live
stock Is sold at the smaller markets,
ms # IS figured that about two-fifths
u the farm live stock goes to market
during one year. OF the annual in
come from live stock. cattle make up
about hvo-eighths. hogs one-fourth
and the balance 5heep. horses and
mules. The great iron and steel in
dustry Is surpassed IN value Of ex-
ports by the shipments of meat and
dairy products. The tendency Of all
lines u animal products IS toward in
crease. while the country IS becoming
less and less an exporter Of grain.
The farmers are wisely securing a
double profit hv turning their grain
Into tha home market and selling II
as n finished product In the form of
meat. butter and cheese. The United
States has more dairy cows 90. pa
