USEFUL FARM CEMENT WALKS
Becoming Quite Common in Many
Agricultural Communities-EasiIy
Made and Everlasting.

In many farming communities ce-
ment walks are becoming quite COM
mon. They are easily made and are
everlasting if made right. A good
many farmers are doing without them
because of the expense, but if the
sand is hauled at odd times and the
walk put down in sections as the time
can be spared, the expense will not be
felt, because the cost of materials in
the country is not very great, and
then it is a great satisfaction to have
good walks.
If the subsoil Is porous and allows
the water to fall away rapidly so as to
prevent freezing it is not necessary to
excavate for foundation, as the walk
will not settle. But where the subsoiI
is stiff clay 1t is better to excavate
from Ia to 16 inches and fill it within
Az inches with cinders or gravel to
make firm foundation. Two-by-fourS
are used for the sides of the form, Ia
king great care to level them.
The surface coating is composed of
one part cement and 2h parts of sand
mixed to the consistency of mortar
and spread over the concrete forms
and smoothed with a trowel. Cover
the walk to protect it from the sun
and it will be ready for use in three
days, but will not get its ultimate
strength before 80 days.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

MY little son, when about a year
and a half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then l
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and half of suffering he grew
so bad that l had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk

ment and followed directions. At the
end of two months the sores were all

of any kind since. l can sincerely say

Increase of Corn Yield.

Corn has been grown at the Virginia
experiment station continuously on
the plot since 1894 with an average
yielA since 1900 of 24.4 bushels per
acre. In a three-year rotation OF
wheat, clover and corn, the corn has
averaged 452 bushels per acre since
1900, showing a difference of over 81
bushels increase due solely to rota-
ton.
Where the land was MANFRED at the
rate Of about eight tons per acre In a
five-year rotation Of wheat, timothy
and clover hay, pasture, oats and corn,
the corn yield has averaged COS bush

CARE OF FARM WORK HORSES
Animals Should Be Pampered and
Fed Generously to Sustain Vigor
and Good Spirits.

Horses employed for farm work
should be pampered and should be fed
generously so as to sustain vigor and
good spirits. A team ill-fed and con-
sequently in poor condition and feeble
will not accomplish much real hard
work and it is waste of time to hire
pan expensive hand to drive such a
team.
The harness, and particularly the
collar, should be accurately adjusted
to the horse. If the collar is either
too tight or too loose it gals him and
seriously affects his breathing.
The work horses should be fed
early in the morning and they should
have a liberal feeding. The comfort
and rest of the team will be vastly
promoted If the harness is entirely re.
moved at noon while they are feeding.
Allow them plenty of time for a good
meal and partial digestion before they
are put to work for the afternoon. 1t
is poor policy to put them to work
right after eating hearty meal or
upon a full stomach.
If we would allow the teams more
rest at noon we would accomplish
more work than when they are only
allowed time to swallow their food. At
evening let them be well groomed
and their legs and bellies relieved OF
mud and filth.
The practise of many farmers OF
driving a team through cold water to
wash the filth off their feet and legs
is dangerous, as it causes many dis,
eases that they are subject to.
A warm or overheated team should
not be put in cold. airy place, but
first exercised and then blanketed and
put in a warm stable and after the
blankets are removed they should be
wiped dry with straw or cloths.
When a team has been exposed to
rains they should not be left to be-
come dry, but should be rubbed dry
as chills, fevers and other ailments
often result from allowing them to dry
by the evaporation of the moisture
from their bodies.

LOSS IN HANDl ZIG MANURE
mucn OF Good Qualities Lost by Elk.
posure to Elements for Period
of Four Months.
tBy ANTON G. WAGNER,

tBy ANTON C, WAGNER)
one OF our experimental stations
mas shown by careful investigation
that when the stable manure is piled
up and left exposed to the rains the
loss from teaching of the fertile ele-
ments Is very large. The New Jersey
station finds that manure exposed for
loO days lost over one-half of the nj
uogen, one-half of the phosphoric acid.
the same proportion Of the potassium
mad been lost More than one-half of
the constituents had been lost by an
exposure of less than four months.
Work from other experiment stations
confirms this.
A great deal of valuable manure Is
also lost in badly arranged stables,
where there are poor facilities for re-
covering the manure. The valuable
liquid manure is lost by drainage.
The best way to save all the fertile
elements in manure is to haul it on the
fields and meadows and spread it even
ly over the land. Washed into the soil
1t is preserved for the next crop.
