FARMERS. INSTITUTE IN JUNE

We are planning to hold summer In
stitutes in northern Wisconsin in June,
at points in the state that are too far
north to make winter meetings advis-
able.
If your town has hall that can be
furnished free in which to hold a one
day meeting and your farmers and
business men wish an Institute some
time during June, write to this Office
for blank petition.
Only limited number of these meet
ings can be held, so if you wish a
meeting for your town write at once,
as the earliest applications will receive
the most favorable consideration.

A good neighbor is always the most
desirable of possessions, although in
some cases their social value is under
estimated. What constitutes a good
neighbor is also frequently miscon-
strued, although the sensible accepta-
ton of the term is, the neighbor who
is friendly without being superfluously
so and finally, one who respects the
privacy of others household affairs by
a certain degree of formality of man.
ner.
The social neighbor is not always
the useful neighbor, yet each in her
place has special influences to exert
of equally beneficial consequences.
The sympathetic is also popular one,
but she has to exercise continuous
tact, lest her solacing influence may
occasionally be overdone or utilized at
untimely periods. The inquisitive
neighbor is always a dread to every
body within the reach of her inquisitive
curiosity, as she does not seem to have
any intuitive respect for Others feel
ings as regards their dlvulgence of
personal affairs to an outsider.
The truest and most respected of
all neighbors, however, is the one who
always speaks well of everybody, who
devotes the largest share of her SYM
pathies to her own affairs, is chary of
administering unsolicited advice, and
who always waits until her social and
useful capacities are requested, and
never renders herself officious even in
her most sanguine efforts at proving to
be good neighbor. Stolen.

ward In south Georgia, of course, later
seeding can be Dracticed than in north
Georgia, and oats may be sown in Novem-
Der and sometimes in December with good
results, but our experience and observa-
ton, covering a good many years now,
leads us to believe that fairly early seed
ing. except where there is danger of the
Hessian fly attacking the crop, is most
satisfactory. The earlier you can seed
them, however, the more grazing and feed
you will obtain during the fall and early
winter for your live stock. We would
fertilizer the oats at the rate of so pounds
of cotton seed meal. 100 bounds Of acid
phosphate and so pounds of kainit, and
if the season is unfavorable, it would
probably be we'll to top dress them with
nitrate of soda early in the spring. If
your land is sandy heavier application
OF fertilizer would be advisable. In that
case use the ingredients suggested 50 as
to make mixture of 300 pounds per acre.
We have had little difficulty in sowing
onions, sage and peppers from seed. These
crops, as a rule, are best seeded in the
spring in the open ground. Where you
desire to secure a very early crop of PEP
Ders. it is best TO seed them in a cold
lIame Some people plant them in straw
celTy boxes and other receptacles of va
rious kinds so as to have the plants well
developed when the weather is warm
enough to set them out. Peppers
are comparatively easy to grow If the
land is we'll enriched with well-rotted ma
luTe and some phosphates and potash ap-
piled. Sage is comparatively easy OF
growth, and the same fertilizer may be
used.
Land intended for onions should be
made very rich. Large quantities of we'll
rotted farmyard manure should be used,
and phosphates and potash should also
be applied. We have been very success
full in growing onions in the home garden
| from seed, and think If the land is well
! enriched and the ground made friable
/ before planting little difficulty will be ex-
rerienced in growing this crop. We have
also had good results from sowing onions
early in the spring and taking the small
ones for transplanting in the early fall for
the next springs crop.
Turnip salad can be easily grown in al
most any section of the south. The fur

ably be induced to grow moe raIidly

| There is no reason why turnip salad
should not be shipped in barrels a u'g-

What Limits Crop Production

other ways nitrogen may be restored to
the soil. There is no possible way, how
ever. OF supplying phosphoric aCII and
poJasis save through the application TO
the land os minerals mined from the
earth. Nevertheless, the destruction or
nitrogen and vegetable matter is a Sc
riOus problem and a matter greatly TO be
deplored. While lime is a costly material
TO apply TO the soil In many senses OF
the word, there is not the cause for alarm
over its depletion that there is over some
of the mineral elements, since lime is
much more abundant than either uotlsh
or phosphates.
The work Of the chemist has. there
fore, shown that the four elements men-
toned are needed in crop growing. or
course, many other substances are used
by plants. but the soil in 80 cases out of
100 contains an abundance Of them. Moro
over, the Investigations of the chemist
have shown that the absence Of any ole
of the materials mentioned or its ID es-
ence in quantities insufficient to meet
the needs Of the plant and leave a con-
siderable surplus in the soil will result
In the material reduction of the crop.
This is most important fact: yet one
seldom realized and appreciated at it's
face value by the farmer, and 1t is duo
10 the meagre supplies Of potash phos-
phoric acid, nitrogen and lime that we
are now growing, where all the other con-
ditions are clearly favorable, small crops.
There is no subject worthy of so much
care and consideration and Investigation
on the part Of the farmer than that OF
the intelligent and skillfm use of COM
mercial plant food.

TROOPS ON TRAIL
OF NIGHT RIDERS

LEXINGTON, Ky, Oct 1s.-No word
has been received of the movement of tie
soldiers ordered out from Cynthiana, last
Saturday night, but it is believed they
are on the way to Bath county, where it
is reported several farmers have been
warned by night riders to pool their to-
bacco or suffer the consequences.
Governor Wilson was here today, but
refused to reveal the soldiers destination.
A special from Mason county says the
following note was found pinned to the
door of the residence of Fred Adams to-
day:
Fred Adams and Wife: We give you
just five days to sign your tobacco to the
Mason county board of control or one of
it's solicitors, and if at the end of that
time we find you have not signed, you will
have to suffer the consequences.

Adams says he will not sign his to-
bacco and is prepared for the coming of
the riders.

established a new worlds record for
long distance and speed in aeronautics

o'clock, having made an average speed
of "A miles an hour, is challenged by par
ties here who have records showing that
higher speed than this was attained in
a balloon average made IS years ago.
The aeronautic feat referred to was
that of Prof. T. S. c. Lowe, now head at
Lowe observatory, near Pasadena, CAL,
who on April 20, 1861, assembled in a bal
loon at Cincinnati, Ohio. at $3.50 o'clock in
the morning and at 1890 o'clock the same
afternoon landed at Pea Ridge, in this
county, having been in the air only nine
hours, yet having covered an air line dis
lance of over 500 miles. This did not in
clude several hundred miles more when
he was caught in an air current and car
ried into Virginia, thence to South Caro-
lima sea coast before reaching his landing
place near here.

not only an eventful one because 1t set

How are hailstones formed?
What accounts for their difference in
size?
Where did those icy goose eggs, hard as
bricks, symmetrical as baseballs, smooth
as glass, fall from?
Everybody has a general idea, but the
weather observer explains the phenome-
ma in definite terms, and his explanation
will be particularly interesting at this
moment. Clouds are formed, to begin
with, says he, by moisture carried upward
from the earth; sometimes this moisture
is carried only to an altitude where the
temperature is warm, and if it falls back
to earth without rising higher, it takes
the form of raindrops. If the moisture is
carried higher where the temperature is
colder, the moisture freezes into the form
of snow. But if it goes still higher where
it is intensely cold ice in the form of
hailstones is the result.
All these hailstones when first formed

are presumably small. but when storm
is brewing the atmosphere in that icy
altitude is violently agitated, whirling
wind currents shooting upward and down
ward, with such velocity and force that
a whole slxyfull of hailstones may fall for
a long distance and then be caught up
again and driven back a second, and a
third and a fourth time, into the higher
icy region. before they are freed from the
whirlwind's grip and fall to earth.
Now each time the hailstone is carried
back into the region of icy cold. 1t gets
another coat of ice and thus its size in-
creases. This theory accounts for the
concentric formation of the hail. This
makes the smooth, lumpy ones result
from several smaller stones freezing to-
gether.
The hail which fell in Atlanta Thursday
must have whirled up and down time az
ter time in the manner above described,
and finally fell from an altitude of two or
three miles.

We would rather suppose that the
trouble from which your hogs are suf-
fering Is due to something else than
eating the stalk, leaves and root of
pokeweed According to the best in
formation available, the berries and roots
of pokeweed are alternative in their
action, or tending to change morbid
condition or general arrangement Of the
system into one of health. When the
berries or roots are used they act upon
the bowels and cause vomiting, and the
preparations made from them are used
in treating various diseases of the skin
and blood. They are also sometimes US
ed for relieving pain and delaying in
fammation. OF course. If consumed in
excessive quantities injurious results
might follow since the roots and berries
are poisonous. We would hardly think,
however, that hogs would ordinarily eat
so much pokeweed as to injure them,
though an animal not we'll or having
a depraved taste might do So We have
seen hogs grazed repeatedly in fields
where pokeweed was more or less
abundant, and think they are not likely
to eat It unless their supplies of food
run low. One might feed a hog an
abundance of corn and if enough green
feed is not provided cause the animal
to eat the pokeweed.
We believe the trouble which you de-
scribe is probably due to some other
cause, as. for example some nervous dis
order of the system as the symptoms
given indicate the paralysis of some Of
the muscles. When this trouble occurs
there is as a rule no pain, and there
is tendency for the animal to become
normal when the injury disappears. Rub
bling the affected parts with some slim
ulating liniment is helpful Tincture
of nux vomica may be given in doses
of one to two drops three times daily.
When the twitching of the muscles oc-
ours, the dose should be discontinued.
