formed that II proved much more
than expected, so far as getting rid
of the old stumps were concerned,
says Homestead. The cost to make
this stump burner was $1.25 and Il
was made as follows: The steel
jacket from an old abandoned food
cooker was used for the lower part,
and the square part for the top was
bought from local timer, It and the
joint of pipe costing S1.25. They are
both little heavier than ordinary
sheet iron. In operation. the device
is placed over the stump and a fire
built around same with anything that
may be handy for fuel. In some cases
chips were used; in others, old rails
and In still others, pieces were split
from the stumps themselves. Not only
did the burner consume the entire
stump In a short time. but In many
cases the roots were burned out far
down In the ground. A similar burner
might be constructed from many
things that are every year thrown IN
the scrap heap, and II the necessary
material could not be found In the
scrap heap, any timer would build
one for small sum and your stumpa
would be burning while you were do
ing something else The boys would
simply love to operate one of these
burners at least until the novelty wore
of, and possibly the promise OF
small sum of money when the last
stump was burned out would prolong
the novelty for a sufficient time to do
the business.

PASTURE AND THE MEADOW
Careful study OF Subject VIII Show
Variety OF Grasses Better Than
Only One Kind.
By 9. M. MILLER)

tBy .. M. hlLEEH)
II sometimes seems as n one-half
Of the farmers were doing everything
possible to fight nature and when we
make a study OF the various grasses
and their peculiar needs we wonder
that we have been succeeding as well
as we have in growing good crops Of
hay. A careful study of the English
system OF maintaining a permanent
meadow and pasture would essentially
aid US in the management Of our
grass lands. There We may find from
ten to twenty kinds of grass growing
on one sod and all thriving and pro-
ducing hay and forage.
We 60 on our meadows when the
proper times come, cut the grass,
cure II into hay and haul II to the
stack or barns and think no more
about the whole matter until the
next year comes and then we go out
and go through the same motions
only get smaller crop and keep
this up until the yield is so small
that we feel II 10 necessary to pillow
up the field and reseed II to clover
and timothy again. We don't go to
the trouble OF top dressing or fertil-
izing the meadow or tile drain to
prevent the water from drowning 1t
out during the wet season nor do we
plan to leave a stubble to protect
1t from the hot summer sun.
Animals will often walk from one
end OF large pasture to another
to get a nibble of some variety of
grass that is different from that in
the other end of the pasture.
Pastures that contain the greatest
number Of varieties OF grass are In
yariably the ones that will support the
most stock
II is one of the greatest evils OF
our system of farming to pillow up
good pasture for II requires a num-
Der OF years to get good turf es-
tablished.
In selecting grass seed for a perma-
nent pasture select kinds that will
bloom In succession from early sum-
mer until late In the fall so that
when one kind is not growing there
will be another to occupy the soil
bhu WGtu6 lIOIl kTOWlHk III
where the soil is not occupied.
In selecting grasses for the meadow
select varieties that flower about the
same time so that they may be cured
for hay at one cutting.
Select those that furnish the most
leaves and thus diminish the amount
of woody indigestible matter IN the
hay.
IL is folly to try 10 skim of sec
ond crop from the meadows. II the
growth Is too rank in the fall pas
ture II of with young stock but do
not pasture II close enough to In
jure its chances of living through the
winter.

noting a rapid fall growth The old
ideas OF getting something for moth. |

time and II we cut three tons of hay |
from our meadows we must feed |
them accordingly and keep the bare
spots covered with grass instead of
weeds
II we supply better forage rations
for our live stock they will come |
through the winter In better condi.
ton and will require less grain to
keep them in thrifty condition.
We, as a rule. are feeding too
much grain TO our animals and unless
we devote more attention TO providing
nutritious forage rations we must ex.
pect less hardy and vigorous animals.
