And watch her elevate her chm.

And watch her loose the brake
And go round the corners bowling,

And watch their quick retreat.
We'd take ride each evening,
All round the town we'd go;
We'd take the rich out riding,
The poor can walk you know.

As soon as I've the dough;
There'd be so much fun in riding,
While others watch US go.

TOO MANY ACRES.

A ride on the cars through almost
any section of the country forces the
conclusion that the chief trouble with
the type of farming which is being
quite generally followed is that land
owners are putting half as much labor
as they ought to Oh twice as much
land as they can work. In almost
every section is to be s@sa the pitiful
evidence that the land Is being titled
in slipshod and careless manner evil
denced by an omnfpreseat growth of
weeds and all too meager crop returns.
The tilling of too much land to handle
discourages the most profitable kind of
stock raising and dairying, increases
the problem of farm help in the house
and outside and makes a drudgery of
type of life that at its best, with
modern conveniences and machinery,
ought not to be oppressive or unenjoy-
able. 1t is patent from mere points of
view than one that the prosperity as
well as the peace of mind and happi-
ness of a large per cent Of the agri-
cultural population in the United
States would be found in larger meas
ure than is true today were there a
better and more thorough working of
fewer acres of land.

DEATH IN CoRNsTALKs.

Almost every fall reports are numer-
Gus of the death Of cattle shortly after
they have been turned into the corn
fields. While death in some of these
cases may be due to the working of
an active poison which is not as yet
fully understood, in a majority OF
cases a postmortem examination of
the affected animals would show that
death resulted from impaction of the
stomach and bowels. To guard against
this contingency the cattle should be
provided with an abundance of salt,
while they should have easy access to
all the water they can drink and even
be driven to the supply to make sure
that they get it, This will furnish the
system sufficient liquid to handle the
digested corn fodder, which is at best
dry and absorbs much moisture. Care
in this matter of providing an abun-
dance of salt and water will often pre-
vent serious loss.

Lumber In Vermont

Vermont ranks 2Sth in the lumber pro-
ducing states. In 1907 there was an
increase of 90 mills over the number
working in 1906 Last year 612 mills
cut 373, 100000 feet of lumber valued at
$6,391 ,4S2. With the exception of New
Hampshire which cut twice as much,
Vermont produced more than any other
state of its size. More soft woods were
cut in Vermont than other kinds. Spruce
056, 1854 900 feet) and hemlock (75, AL
600 feet lead in amount cut, then come
white pine (35, 167 ,O00) birch 81, 904,-
O00,) maple (27, 1S4, OOO) There is little
walnut or hickory cut. In the production
OF Whitespin Vermont ranks 18th among
all the states, but third among states Of
its own size. New Hampshire cut more
than ten times as much and Massachu-
setts about seven times as much.
Vermont ranks eighth among the states
in the cut of hemlock, sixth in the cut of
beech, fifth in birch, eighth in Eastwood,
fourteenth in ash, second in balsam fir.
Among states of it's own size it is second
to New Hampshire in the cut of white
pine, hemlock and spruce, but twice as
much birch as New Hampshire. Other
wise Vermont cuts more than the others,
save of white pine.
From earliest times Maine has been
the leading sprucelumber producing state
and in 1907 reported 3O.6'of the total
cut, New Hampshire, West Virginia,
Washington, New York and Vermont fol
lowed in the order named. These six
states reported over tour-ffths of the
total cut in 1907.
For the country as a whole the cut of
spruce was the largest ever reported
The change in value in seven years has
been more marked than the increase in
output, the reported average value per
1000 feet at the mill being $1127 in
1900 and $17.3O in 1906.

HEETs AND SOIL FERTILITY.

With a view to getting somewhat
definite information relative to the
amount of fertilizing elements removed
from the soil in the growing of a ton
of beets. the writer recently made in
quiry of the bureau of plant industry
at Washington and received the desired
information from A. d McNair, expert
in charge of the farm management in
vestigations. The query was made to
ascertain the correctness or incorrect
ness of the claim made by the pro-
moters of beet sugar factory to farm
ers who have been raising beets for
the concern that larger crop Of corn
can be raised after beets-in other
words that the growing of the sugar
beet tends to enrich the soil. Mr.. Nc
Nair states that be has found from
his own experience that corn does not
do well after this crop. though he is
not positive that other crops are in
jured thereby He adds that pro-
moters of sugar beet factories some
times hold that sugar beets take moth
ing from the soil and try to justify
their arguments by stating that sugar
is made up of carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen-in vulgar parlance. wind and
water"-and as such it does not con-
tain any fertilizing ingredient. This
statement, true as far as it goes, over
looks the important fact that the pulp
residue or fibrous parts of the beet do
contain large quantities of fertilizing
materials. From the table which fol-
lows, which gives the pounds Of fer
tiliZing elements per ton of product, 1t
will be seen that as compared with po-
tatoes, corn. silare. cabbage and tim
othy hay. beets do not pull very heavily
on the soil, yet the figures disprove the
statement that the growing of beets
enriches the soil:
