HOW IT WAS GROWN.

When one reads of an exceptional yield of grain or corn an interest very naturally attaches to the methods fol- lowed in producing it. For this reason those who have read the previous ref erence in these notes to the authenti- cated yield of 154 bushels of corn se- cured from a single acre by John Sund- berg will be interested in knowing how 1t was grown. The ground on which this fine yield was produced was sec ond bottom Missouri valley soil which had been in clover pasture some five years preceding It was plowed in the fall. and in the spring it was given the usual thorough preparation for corn. including disking and narrowing. An acre and half were chosen in the rich est part of the field. one acre being laid out for the actual test. The grower figured out in advance just how many plants he would have to have to pro duce 150 bushels at harvest. To this were added sufficient number of ker- nels to make up for those that for one cause or another would fail to pro- duce ears. He planted the corn early in May, using a drill and double plant ing. so that the rows were twenty-one inches apart, the kernels being drop ped eighteen inches apart in the row. The cultivating was done with sin gle horse and a five tooth cultivator. this being given at frequent intervals so as to keep the soil loose and moist. At husking time an actual count show ed II .SS0 stalks with ears averaging in weight IA ounces. The land was re measured and the corn weighed in the presence of justice of the peace. The variety planted was Reid's Yellow Dent. It is interesting 10 note in connection with this yield that it was just about six times the average yield per acre for corn the country over. It is worth remembering. too. that. in addition to using the finest pure bred seed obtain able, the corn was grown on very rich piece of bottom land and was given ideal cultivation. When corn growers will give more heed to the three factors here mentioned in the growing of their corn the yield of this great cereal will be materially in creased.

SOME OHIO SPRAYING RESULTS.

When the average orchard owner who has not been spraying his trees ts preached on the question of spray
 ing. quite naturally one of the first points he raises is, Does it pay?" With a view to giving an emphatic affirmative answer to this question a number of the state experiment sta tiens have during the past three or four years conducted most instructive cooperative spraying experiments. in which the matter seems to have been given very conclusive demonstration. Of the above type of experiments were those conducted by the Ohio sta- ton in 1907. Twelve acres of an or ehard near Amherst were selected for the experiment. the trees being twenty feet in height and having about an equal spread of top. A few trees were left unsprayed for purposes of com parison. At harvest time 2.5o0 bushels of perfect apples were gathered. a conservative estimate of the gain due 10 spraying being S1.400. or over sio0 rer acre. and this after the cost of spraying. amounting to S125. had been subtraeted. Set. as this orchard was. in the midst of many other unsprayed orchards. the demonstration was very convincing. and as a result of the showing made many orchardiSts of the state were convinced of the praeti- cal value of spraying and took the work up the following year. The av craze of picked sound fruit at harvest time on all the trees sprayed was 9G per cent. while the same average for the unsprayed trees was less than 5s per cent The main fact proved in connection with this work is that If one has an orchard which is worth anything at all he cannot afford to leave 1t unsprayed. as so doing will reduce both the quantity and quality of his fruit below the point where he can successfully compete with the growers of clean fruit. On the other hand. if the orchard is too far gone to justify the expense of spraying. it were better cut out and converted into stove wood as 1t is merely an incum- brance on the ground.

FIRST coLoRED EGGS.
How and Where This Charming Gus
 tom Originated.


 During the crusades lady living in a castle along the line of march re- ceived some chickens from a man re turning from the east. They were great curiosity and highly prized by their gentle owner.
 The men of her family were cru saders. and their absence was taken advantage of by some lawless neigh bors. who commanded her to abandon her home and seek refuge in the Black forest. There she received protection and kind treatment and lived several years among very poor peasants She had taken her chickens with Der and took great pleasure tn giving their eggs to her poor neighbors.
 She was particularly interested in the children and devoted considerable time to their instruction. She made . rule to give a present to each child at Easter. but each year she had few CT possessions.
 This necessity suggested to her the novel idea of decorating some eggs with bright coiors. and to make them sfill more interesting she concealed them among fhe dry leaves in the for est. The children were sent to hunt them and were greatly sss"nished and delivhss-s 70 find the eoi~res ergs

All too many farmers in the corn belt have yet to learn the several ad= vantages coming from adopting a type of soil tillage which makes possible the growing of l.0o0 bushels of corn on fifteen acres Instead of snrawiing 1t over forty or fifty acres. Such an agricultural reform would mean not only vastly greater economy in the use and working of land and care of the crops. but corresponding increase in satisfaction on the part of the pro prietor.

One of the largest irrigation projects in the world has been under construc- ton during the past year and a half on the Murrumbidgee river. in New South Wales. The dam. which Is To- eated at Barren Jack. will cost when completed $7.5000o0 and will store water enough to irrigate and make available for settlement 1.35s.o00 acres of land. The cost of this dam is al most twice that of the celebrated Salt river dam. near Phoenix. Ariz.. the largest enterprise of its kind in the United States.

A query that naturally comes to one who feels an interest in the soil be- heath his feet is that having to do with its origin. Subsequent to the epoch where the stuff of which the old earth was made took form and sub stance" the earth masses were of rocky formation. but as result of processes partly chemical and partly physical extending through millions of years and including the work of heat and frost. of rain and snow. of flood and glacier. they were disintegrated and reduced to fneness which ma6e DOS sible the nourishment of plant life.

The black color of the surface soils found in many sections is due to the presence of humus. the decaying and decayed vegetable matter. the accumu- lation of many years. White soils are usually of a sandy character. red soil of decomposed granite or clay. while the gray soils often noticed in western states are composed of volcanic ash. While black soils are usually fat and rich in humus. in no sense do they surpass the red or gray soils when 1t comes to other fertilizing elements. True. they often lack nitrogen, but this deficiency is made good by the appli- cation of manures and the growing of iegumes
