TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS
Lime and LenumeS.

To grow successfully or luxuriantly
oil the legumes must grow nodules on
their roots. These nCdules contain tht
minute organisms that in some way
enable the plants to draw supply OF
nitrogen from the air, not only to give
the plants themselves luxuriant
growth, but to leave a greater or less
portion in the soil for the benefit of
future crops.
soil, and the reason that it is more OF
less difficult TO grow the legumes-
clover, alfalfa. etc.--on many farms T.
because the soil is more or less acid
Lime regulates or neutralizes the acid
ity, and ii is well to treat with lime
any land where It is proposed TO grow
leguminous crops
From 800 to 1000 or even 1.5OC
pounds of lime TO the acre may be ap.
piled. and all forms of lime are used
for that purpose. But stone lime is
evidently the best. 1t should be slaked
into fine powder, and for convenience
of application it may be thoroughly
mixed with an equal or even greater
amount of comparatively dry earth,
well pulverized. 1t may then be sown
broadcast or spread by any other
means and thoroughly narrowed in at
the time or before seeding.

The DANGER of Critioisnn.

If you simply cannot help criticising
at least be careful In selecting your
victim.
A magazine editor to whom o. Hen
ry had promised a story many times
without delivering it sat down one day
and wrote him thus:
my Dear o. Henry-If l do not re-
ceive that story from you by noon to-
day l am going to put on my No. II
shoes and come down and kick you
down your own stairs. l never fail to
keep my promises
Whereupon o. Henry replied:
81, too. would keep my promises If
l could do all my work with my feet"

THE HORSES COLLAR
MUST FIT SNUGLY
Neglect Of This Matter Sure to
Result In Sore Shoulders.

Fitting the collar to the horse is
rather difficult task. In the manufac-
ture of collars the leather is soaked
till it is as limp as a rag and then il
fitted over steel form representing
the shape of the horses neck. When
dry these collars are so firm and stiff
that usually it is impossible to buckle
the harness tight enough to bring them
to the shape of the animals neck, and
the shoulders are therefore adjusted
to the collar rather than the collar to
the shoulders, with sore shoulders as
of no two horses are alike. 1t is there
fore necessary to avoid this soreness
that a stiI collar be adjusted to the
shoulders Of the horse for which 1t is
intended.
To do this take the poorly fitting col
lar, new or old, wrap it around and
around again with thoroughly wet
cloth or place the unwrapped collar in
three inches Of water and let 1t remain
overnight In the morning put the
collar on the horse and with hame
straps draw 1t snugly to the sides of
the neck BE sure that the hame
straps are properly adjusted, then
work the horse moderately through
the day. After soaking IN this way
the collar will adjust itself to every
inequality Of the shoulder, and the
horse will seldom be troubled with

we'll cured corn fodder acre for acre,
but generally speaking. it is safe to
say that for feeding to the cows an
acre of corn cut at the proper time
we'll preserved in the silo is worth %
per cent more than the same acre
would have been were it placed in
shocks and well cured. Possibly this
may be accounted for by the losses
which occur to the corn fodder during
the fall aud winter caused by rains
which fall upon the shocks and leach
the soluble portions of the feeding nu
trieuts from the leaves and stalks and
because many of the palatable leaves
are broken Off and blown away.

The Battle Of a Week,

The battle of week was the great
conflict Mt Tours in which Charles
Martel overthrow the Saracens, A. d.
732. The members Of the Saracen
army are variously estimated at from
100000 to 100000. and the historians
say that 37o,OO0 were killed on the
field. 1t is suspected that these fig
ures are gross exaggeration. but it
is certain that few battles OF history
have been either so bloody or so de-
cisiYe.

Shnen Raising Paws.

Farms where sheep are depended
upon for the big end of the income are
quite scarce east of the Mississippi.
But farms where sheep show net prof
is that they are never given credit for
ire numerous. The man who has kept
a flock of forty or fifty ewes all his
life seldom realizes how much they
contribute to his bank account and to
the looks of his farm until he gets
"sore on the wool trust and gets out,
He's generally found getting right
back in.

When His coIors Were Shown.

George w., was a hot sport, and
while on his deathbed sent a man to
EPSON to hurry back with news of the
Derby. In 1864 the Prince Joined the
Jockey Club, but not until 1875 did he
register and sport the purple body
with gold braid. scarlet sleeves and
black silk velvet cap with gold fringe"
the well known colors of his great
uncles, George w. and the Duke of
Cumberland. In 1877 Alex first car
ried the Princes colors in public, but
was beaten at over four miles by
Avowal For some years the colors
were seldom seen except at some
steeplechases and two trials to take
the Grand National. 1t was not until
1880 that Leonidas II. in a military
steeplechase won with royal colors.
Then in 1886 Counterpart won a
maiden race.-Tip, in the New York

Salt Needed hv Cows.

Cows require from one to eight
ounces of salt day. The more con.
centrates they are fed the more salt
they require. 1t should be where they
can have access to it every day. Ac-
cording to experiments made at the
Wisconsin agricultural station, about
two ounces COW a day is the aver
lge amount required.

ARE THERE TOO MANY LAWs7

Ignorance of the law excuses no one" is an old legal maxim. Every body is supposed to know the law. but as a matter of fact nobody does The greatest lawyers are not posted as to anything like all the live laws. It is sufficient for their purpose to know where to find the law when they want it.
 These remarks are provoked by an enterprising gentleman who has un- dertaken 10 make a census of the laws of this country, and reports the result in the Pittsburg Dispatch. He reports 16.O00 live laws. legal rules and regulations which people are bound to obey or suffer more or less unpleasant consequences. There are. according to his count, more than B.. 900 Federal statutes. and. on an aver. age, more than 5000 separate State laws. ignorance of which excuses nc man.
 It has long been held that We have too much legislation in this country and the so-called census of the laws would see into bear out that belief When to the actual laws are added the constructions which the courts place -on the laws, it is not surprising that the ordinary man gives up all notion of becoming even reasonably informed as 10 what is the law. pre- ferring 10 leave that to the lawyers.

THE PROBLEMS OF

People who have the good fortune to live in southern cities where a snow storm is so rare an occurrance as to be rather welcomed as a novel, diversion, have no appreciation of what a heavy snow fall means to northern community. The big cities of the North Atlantic coast expert enced during the past week blizzard which brought in it's train heavy fall of snow. This snowfall not only blocked street transportation, but for Ia time stopped even the steam rail roads.

It took Phila- delphia three days during the past week to dig itself out of the snow and restore traffic to reasonably normal conditions. Street car travel was im- peded for several days. and the streets were so deeply covered with snow that business traffic was i'm possible. It cost a vast sum of money and gave employment to thousands of men to restore Philadelphia to somethink like normal shape.
 The papers of baltimore are throw ing bouquets at the street-cleaning commissioner of that city for his good work in carting away the snow in record time. while the New Yorl lpapers are saying equally kind thing: about the commissioner of that city It cost New York probably s4OO,OO' to cart away the snow taken iron

THE COUNTY SEAT MUST BE MOVED.

ID old tombstone. looking out over the San Pedro valley is red brick building. the Cochise county court house, built in 1882. Once it was an ornamental structure, located to suit the convenience of the then sparse population of this county, but that was twenty-eight- years ago.
 Today the Cochise county court house is antiquated. is obsolete, quite
 ut of date It is not what is need ed. for offices and office accommoda- ions are tco few and too small. The business of Cochise county has out grown the quarters which were more than ample for its accommodation twenty-eight years ago. just as the population of the county has grown away from old Tombstone and segre- gated and congregated at more popu- Ious and important centers. Tomb stone has not progressed. has not marched in time to the music of pros perity with the rest of the county The old court house and Tombstone are alike behind the times and a new court house and new county seat are necessary.
 The grand jury in its report on Sat urday night recommended enlarge ments and improvements to the court house and jail. The deficiencies Of the present buildings. their utter in- adequacy. are manifest. A new court house is needed. but not at Tomb stone. The balance of the county will not consent to further expenditures for the maintsinance of county seat at such al out of the way location which brings a useless expense of thousands of dollars each yeav to the county. in railroad fares. of many thousands more to witnesses. at>or- neys and Mtigants. and where the ac- commodations for those whom busi- ness calls to the present county seat are so inadequate.
