APPLES BOUGHT UP AND STORED.

Dispatches tell us that shipments
of apples from Southern Missouri to
Springfield have begun in earnest, &C
cording to Up-to-Date Farming. Most
of the apples are owned by Eastern
buyers and are being placed in cold
storage by the thousands of barrels.
It is expected that between now and
Christmas prices will jump from 81 to
Sc barrel.
Only a retelling of the old story.
Those who grow the apples sell them
at picking time when prices are low.
Those who buy them put them away
and hold them until the prices
Jump" The working farmers make
the produce; the early buyers at the
bumper sales get the profits.
So many examples of this kind have
been brought to the attention of
farmers that it does look like they
would prepare to hold their stun
themselves, and thus get the profits
they have justly earned. But farm
ers are slow to act outside of the
fields.

HOW TO GET EARLY LETTUCE.

Lettuce is a hardy plant, and some
varieties will stand considerable
freezing, says the Southern Farm
Journal. In the Southern States the
seed can be sown in the fall and the
plants grown in frames covered with
cloth. But north of Virginia there is
nothing to be gained by this prac-
tice. While the Big Boston, which is
as hardy as any of the varieties, may
be carried over winter, it will make
slow, tough, leathery growth and
form inferior heads.
The best plan to get lettuce in
early spring is to SOW the seed in
hotbed or greenhouse in February
or early March, and transplant to
open ground outdoors as soon as
piece of land can be put in thorough
working order. Some time may be
gained by growing the plants in hot
bed or cold frame, covered by glass
sash and protected by mats or shut
tiers when necessary. Select good
early sorts, as May King, Salamander
or Perfection. For home use there is
none to approach the diminutive Tom
Thumb.

FARMERS TEN COMMANDMENTS.

DR.. Seaman A. Knaff, who is in
charge of cooperative demonstra-
ton work, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, lays down the
following rules, which he calls the
Ten Commandments of Agriculture:
1. Prepare deep and thoroughly
pulverized seed bed, we'll drained
break in the fall to the depth of 8, 10
or IL inches, according to the soil,
with implements that will not bring
the subsoil to the surface The fore
going depths should be reached
gradually.
2. Use seed of the best variety, in
diligently selected and carefully
stored
3. In cultivating crops, give the
rows, and the plants in the rows, a
space suited to the plant, the soil
and the climate.
4. Use intensive tillage during the
growing period of the crops.
D. Secure a high content of humus
in the soil by the use of legumes,
barnyard manure, farm refuse and
commercial fertilizer.
6. Carry out a systematic crop ro-
tation, with a winter cover crop on
Southern farms.
7. Accomplish more work in day
by using more horsepower and better
implements.
8. Increase the farm stock to the
extent of utilizing all the waste prod
ucts and idle lands of the farm
9. Produce all the food required
for the men and animals on the farm.
10. Keep an account of each farm
product, in order to know from which
the gain or loss arises.

COTTONsEED PRODUCTS.

Dear Sir:-I wish you would, in
the next issue of The Jeffersonian.
publish the different kinds of prod
ucts made from cottonseed by the oil
mills, and also give me, as near as
possible, the exact value of a bushel
OF cottonseed to the oil mills. Give
us the inside track of the whole bust
ness.
Some of the oil mills in this part
OF the country are adulterating their
meal by grinding the bulls and mix
ing with the meal. I suppose about
twenty per cent. of some of it is bulls,
probably more.
Write the whole thing up in an
editorial, and oblige,
Yours with respect,
S. J. VIRGINS.

(Having referred Mr. Virgins in
quiry to an expert, the following re-
ply was made.)
Dear Sir:-Replying to your valued
favor, permit me to say the following
figures relative to the value per unit
contained in a ton of cottonseed are
about correct:

SAMPLE ORE OFF COIN.

Some parings from silver dime
and gold scraped from jewelry were
found in some mining samples assayed
by Professor c. S. Thomson. head of
the apartment of mining at Washing
ton State College. few days ago.
Professor Thomson was explaining to
the class in assaying methods for the
preliminary examination of samples to
be tested.
Using sample of black sand re-
ceived from Stevens county a few days
ago he found minute particles of gold
and silver In the residue after remov-
ing the iron with magnet. An ex-
animation of the non-magnetic resi-
due with magnifying glass disclosed
the fact that the PARTICLES of gold
and silver were of extraneous orogin.
The particles of silver were curled
as though cut from the edge Of a coin
with sharp knife. Further scrutiny
revealed traces of the milling of cor
rugation characteristic of ten cent
piece. The gold appeared to have been
taken from different sort of object.
1t showed no milling and according to
Prof. Thomson, was probably scraped
from a spectacle frames or from the
head of cane.
No statement would be made by
Prof. Thomson as to the source of the
samples beyond the fact that they
were sent for assaying from Stevens
county. A letter was written to the
sender of the sample suge costing that
some one had been trying to fool him
and offering to assist in prosecution of
the offenders. No reply has yet been
received by the college authorities.
