the familiar nursery rhymes and sto-

very crude woodcuts. often daubed

Fresh Manure.

Authorities say that fresh manure
loses in the process OF decay from 90
to 70 per cent of its original weight.
Some tests conducted by the Cornell
Experiment Station showed that two
tons OF horse manure exposed in a
pile for five months lost 81 per cent OF
it's gross weight, 60 per cent OF its
nitrogen, Al per cent of its potash.
Five tons of COW manure exposed for
the same length of time in a compact
pile lost, through teaching and dissl-
patton of gases, 40 per cent in gross
weight, Al per cent of its nitrogen
10 per cent of its phosphoric acid and
8 per cent of It's potash.
A ton OF average fresh horse ma
nure from animals fed on ordinary
balanced ration, contains about 10
pounds potash.

The Useful siIo.

The silo Is a text which is always
inspiring to the man who knows its
value and it cannot be preached from
too often, writes S. c. Miller Wher-
ever 1t is seen it denotes farming,
1t solves the problem of turning into
the highest efficiency that portion of
the corn crop which fails to reach the
desired maturity as feed. The silo
can be filled at less expense than the
same amount of dry feed can be cared
for and 1t makes better feed. This
is after all, the main point to con-
slider. Dairymen have learned that
when cows are kept in the stable for
five to seven months they cannot re-
turn as satisfactory profits If they are
confined to a ration of dry feed alone.
Ensilage gives succulence and is very
much easier to masticate and digest
than dry corn fodder. There is also
a great saving of labor in feeding en-
silage, over feeding dry corn fodder.
The initial expense keeps many silo
from decorating the landscape, but
1t is good practice to economic in
other directions to provide for 1t. Once
built and rightly built 1t will not have
to be renewed for many years, so the
cost is spread out so thinly that 1t
cuts no great figure in the business
Of feeding.

bridge Grating.

Where trees are found girdled in
the spring, the only method of saving
them is by the practice of what is
known as bridge-grafting.
If young trees be girdled in late
spring just as growth is beginning,
they may be successfully treated by
binding about the wounded parts
heavy covering of smooth, tenacious.
soft clay. 1t is safer, however, to in
sert few long scions, as shown in
the accompanying picture. The sap
circulation of the tree, cut off by the
wound made by the rodents, is re-
sumed through the scions, which be-
come part of the tree-enlarging
and growing together until, in after
years, only slight enlargement or
bulge" on the trunk of the tree thus
treated will be noticeable.
In bridge-grafting the wounds
should be made clean and smooth with

PouIIry Pickingn.

Watch closely and mark the hem
that is laying an egg each day. She
ls the kind you want to perpetuatS
in the flock.
Weed out the hens that lay the
small-sized eggs. They are the un-
profitable ones and never will Inn
prove the quality of the flock.
There are some poultrymen who adj
vocate pullets for breeders instead of
yearling hens. 1t is generally found
that well-developed fowls make the
most prolific breeders.
II you have both pullets and old
hens in your flock keep close watch
and see which one is laying the most
eggs. A little knowledge along this
line may assist next season In select
ing flock Of winter layers.

Cost of Feed.

During an experiment in Corne1
University a few years ago the aver
age feed cost for eggs throughout the
year was about 9 cents per dozen.
Other experimenters give the cost OF
eggs in winter at Is cents per dozen
and in summer S15 cents. Under the
present prices of feed eggs would cost
about IL cents per dozen, but 1t must
be remembered that on the farm the
hen picks up the most part of her hV-
ing from the waste material that 10
scattered over the farm, so that the
cost of a dozen eggs is a very small
item Of cash outlay.

FRUIT GROWERS TO ADVISE.
Spokane Apple Show Management
Wants Their Opinion.

WauIS AhVAA Op1u1Ou'
Growers in the United States and
Canada, who exhibited their orchard
products in competitions at the second
National Apple show last fall, will be
requested by the board of trustees to
give their views upon questions gov
erning variety ratings, entering and
judging of exhibits at the third exhibit
ton in Spokane, November IA to 49,,
when $4,000 will be distributed in
prizes and trophies in the various con-
tests, which are free and open to the
world.
The chief question is regarding scor-
ing values. Rem H. Rice, secretary of
the National Apple Show, Inc, says in
letter to prospective exhibitors and
growers that the rules OF the American
neurological society were adopted last
year at the request of many entrymen;
but, " he adds, cit was apparent that
the ratings were not fair to many apples
that have been brought to a higher
standard since the society made up its
hSt IL years ago."
The present ratings are: Arkansas,
~; Arkansas Black, Sc; Baldwin, SO;
Ben Davis, As; Cox Orange Pippin, g.
!; Delicious, 90; Gravenstein, 80;
GHmes' Golden, 90; Jonathan, 80;
Mcintosh Red, Sc; Northern Spy, SO;
Rhode Island Greening, rs; Rome
Beauty, 60; Spitzenburg, 10; Stayman
Wmesap, SO; King of Tompkins
county, SO; Wagner, rs; Wealthy, g.
White Permain, SO; Winter Banana,
TS; Winesap, rs; Wolf River, Sc;
fellow Bellfower, SO; Yellow New,
town, $40; York Imperial, 81.
The only changes proposed are: Ar
kansas, Arkansas Black and Baldwin
~ each; Mcintosh Red and Wealthy
10 each; Delicious and Winesap, S-G
each.
The other questions are: The publica
uoa OF score cards after judging, spe
clai judges for the limited displays
anu requiring pledges of honor from
exhibitors that the apples entered il
any commercial exhibit, district anc
limited displays not included are prod
uets Of one orchard.

The Asparagus peetle.

This is troublesome pest and hard
to fight. Clean cutting, especially In
ridge culture, keeps them well under
control in spring, but considerable
harm is done later on by slugs or
larvae. Poultry are very fond of these
beetles, and a few fowls will soon
capture the matured insects If allowed
in a garden bed. An extensive grower
of asparagus in Massachusetts finds
that most of the beetle eggs have been
sucked dry and destroyed by a species
of small fly, which has made its ap.
pearance for the first time in large
numbers this year.

PREMIUMLISTREADY|
SPOKANE INTERSTATE FAIR
MAKES GREAT OFFERS,
Spokane Interstate Fair to Give AWAY
$4,000 in Prizes and Purses-Dry
Farming Congress to Be Held on Fair
Grounds at Same Time-Exhibitors
Can Show at Both.

The 1910 Premium List of the Sno.
Kane Interstate fair has just been is
sued and will be mailed free to any
address on request to R. II. Cosgrove.
233 Hutton Block, Spokane. This book
is much larger than usual and contains
an unusually liberal lot of prizes to
De given away at the 18th fair, October
. to 9, 1910. One of the greatest i'm
provements on the 1910 Spokane Inter
state Fair Premium List, which has
just been issued, is the fact that sepa-
rate prizes are given for irrigated and
non-irrigated fruit. The fact that the
Fair is to be held from October 8 to 9
will also help all exhibitors, as the
date last year was too early for the
fruit to be shown to advantage.
Double Prizes.
All exhibitors can also compete for
long and liberal list of prizes to be
given by the International Dry Farm
ing congress for their annual exposi,
ton which is to be held on the fair
grounds during fair week, October 3
to 9. To compete in both shows it is
only necessary to bring double samples.
Complete information and prize lists
may be had free of any charge by ad-
dressing Mr.. Cosgrove.
School Children's Chance.
The Spokane Interstate fair wants
to get lot of information about the
famous Indian Chief Joseph, who led
the Nez Perces for SO many years, and
are offering $40 in gold and number
OF season tickets for the best essay
written by a school child and describ-
ing Chief Joseph IS life and exploits.
This contest is open to all school chill
dren anywhere in the big Inland EN-
pire, and details and information about
this contest can be secured by writing
to Secretary Cosgrove.
$4,000 in Prizes and Purses.
The cash prizes to be given at the
18th Spokane Interstate fair, October
3 to 9, are the largest that this associ-
alton has ever given and amount to
more than $4,000. Another $4,000 is
to be given for race purses and the
same amount spent on attractions and
night show. In every respect the fair
is being planned on the largest and
most expensive scale, but the fair man
agement has decided that to entertain
the thousands of visitors who will be
in the city, it will be necessary to make
an extraordinary effort. The fact that
the fair and the Dry Farming congress
are to be held the same week will I'M
doubtedly draw a larger and better
crowd than has'ever attended any pre-
vious Interstate fair.
The Relay Race.
The relay race, which has been a
tried and proved attraction at the
Spokane Interstate fair, will be given
again this year for a purse of $1,000.
$4,000 Derby.
The Derby purse at the fair has been
doubled this year and will amount to
$4,000 in cash. This is one of the
largest running purses ever given in
the Inland Empire. Twenty thousand
dollars in cash purses will be offered
to the race horses which attend the
Spokane Interstate fair this fall,
October to 8. Entry blanks and com
plete program may be had by writing

The only way to raise chickens in
large numbers in a short space of time
and have them at the right time to
get the biggest prices for them is to
use incubators and breeders. By the
use of the hen for Matching and brood
ing, enough chickens can not be raised
In a season to make 1t pay. Many OF
my customers tell me that they would
rather take care of 100 chicks in a
brooder than to care for one old hen
ana her brood. You can set as many
eggs in a medium-sized incubator as
you can put under ten sitting hens.
With the machines you have absolute
control at all times. No lice to fight
No danger of eggs being broken or
chilled during incubation. Eggs and
chicks perfectly safe at all times. No
work at all compared with the work
that ten fussy old hens would cause
