Caution About Corr

Several Ohio correspondents report
that the corn which they expected to
sell for seed has shown such low per-
centages of termination that they
cannot offer it for that purpose. 1t
looks all right, but it does not grow.
Western exchanges report that GER
mination tests made thus far indicate
that a very large proportion of the
corn saved for seed will not ger
inmate, though it is apparently very
good and In fine condition. A few
years ago much of the corn didn't
look as IL it would terminate and
people became very careful about
their seed corn. This years condition
is more dangerous, because the corn
is apparently sound, and farmers will
therefore believe 1t to be all right
without testing it. Testing seed corn
is so easily done, and its importance
so great that 1t should become uni
versal practice. especially when there
is so much doubt about vitality as
there is this year.-National Stock

Getting the Garden Ready.

When one wishes to start garden
in spring it is nearly always worth
while to begin operations the pre-
vious autumn. Very often the ground
to be used is covered with sod, in
which case 1t is always necessary to
pillow or spade it the fall before in
order that the frost may act upon 1t
and enable the gardener to get the
soil into good workable condition
when he wishes to plant the spring
crops. The ground very often is full
of roots of witch-grass or Quack-grass
and it is very necessary that these
roots should be eradicated before the
crops are planted. The best time to
do this is in the autumn, when the
gardener has comparative leisure.
And the best way to do it is to dig
out the root stocks with fork, which
will not break them off as does a
hoe or spade. The ground also is
likely to be more or less filled with
stones and rocks, and it is very de-
sirable that these should be removed
before the crops are planted.
Consequently, il you desire to have
a successful garden next season, de-
eide on its location this fall, get the
ground as well prepared as possible,
and leave it in such condition that
the freezing and thawing in the win
ter will help in giving the soil finely
pulverized condition. in which the

The Jersey Cow.

A correspondent askS'us how it is
that Jersey cattle are so preserved in
uniform appearance and conforma-
ton. If our correspondent will con-
slider and reflect little upon the law
of the Jersey Island, that for great
number of years back in the Gen.
turtles, no other cattle could be
brought there. Under this law the
purity as we'll as uniformity Of the
breed has been preserved down to the
present, and this has made the Jersey
COW so generally regarded as the DOM
irant butter breed of the world. In
his reference to some of the early im-
portations to this country, the well
known writer on Jersey cattle, Val
ancey E. Fuller, says:
Like every breed, the Jersey breed
has strains or families that stand out
prominently. One of the first to at
tain any considerable notoriety in
the olden days was that of Albert A,
who was the sire of six daughters in
the fourteen-pound list. the most
famous of whom was COUGHS Lily,
who made sixteen pounds five and
ore-half ounces in seven days, and
seventy-one pounds in thirty days.
knew Couch s Lily, and while she was
considered a great cow and great
breeder in those days, she was not
noted for beauty. Lady Mel I'd was
another daughter of Albert A, who
deservedly had a national reputation
as she had a record of 1873 pounds
in sixty-one days. ! question If she
was as well known as COUGHS Lily
and yet she should have enjoyed even
| better reputation.
And so in preserving this great
| dairy breed constant importations are
being made from the Jersey Island
and fresh blood infused in the breed
| ing of Jerseys.

Fertilizers.

in experiments made at the aSri-
cultural station of Lausanne, STitzer-
land, for the purpose of determining
the effect of potash fertilizers upon
natural meadows, two neighboring
fields, having almost identical soils
of glacial mari, showed marked diff
ference in effect and, very curiously,
the soil of the field that had yielded
the larger crop was found. after har-
vest, to contain more potash than that
of the other field. This remarkable
result has been traced to the influence
of drainage. The better drainage Of
the field which yielded the larger
crop promoted the circulation of air
and water in the soil, favored the as
similatiop of soluble nutriment, and
caused the roots to extend to great
er depth and utilize large volume of
earth. This example shows that the
fertility of soil cannot always be
determined by chemical analysis
alone.

Minister and Farmer.

From an interesting address be-
fore the Twentieth Century Club, Bos-
ton, by VIM. II. Bowker, on the
Farmer Minister Needed" we clip
the following:
in my Judgment, the country
minister has not lost his hold; he
has simply lost his bearings. When
the sky clears and he can take obser-
vations on the sun and stars, he will
steer himself and his craft, of which
he is captain, into the new channels
of industrial as we'll as spiritual
progress; only we must give him the
opportunity, the helping hand. the
encouraging word. And why should
he not be leader in this old, but to
him, new field? In the frs. place, he
is generally a student, trained to in
vestigate, to use books, to think on
his feet, to express himself, and US
ually he does it remarkably well.
With his training and alert mind he
can become of great assistance in pro-
mitigating the new agriculture; he
can help to popularize the sciences
which underlie it, chemistry, botany,
entomology and especially bacteriol-
ogy, which deals with the hidden,
forceful life in the soil.
For example: If he has only a
garden, why should he not expert
ment with garden crops, and if he
loves flowers, with the growing of
sweet peas? He can show how the
incubation of the sweet per seed with
bacteria cultures will increase the
| nodules on the roots If the plant,
thus enabling it to gather nitrogen
| and produce abundant flowers. On
Sunday he can take a vase of these
flowers to his pulpit and in a prelude
If you please, or after the service, he
can explain how he succeeded in
growing such beautiful blossoms
He might display some of the roots
| of the plant with the nodules on
them, and show how infinite and won.
| derful are Gods ways.
"As the sweet pea belongs to the
| great leguminous family, which EN-.
braces peas, beans and clover, he car
show the farmers of his parish who
happen to be present land they would
be present if they knew he had q
message of this sort to DELIVERY, how
the incubation of the clover seet
would insure its growth and thereby
increase the fertility of the farm by
drawing from the great reservoir o.
the air stores of nitrogen which are
needed for the upbuilding Of croI
life. Here is one of a hundred mes
sages or little preludes or sermons
which the rural minister may carry
to his farmer neighbors and parish
ioners."

The Abnormal Appetite of Cattle.


DR.. David Roberts, Wisconsin State
Veterinarian, says many cattle with
an abnormal appetite have strong
desire to lick the walls, dirt and filth
that healthy animal would have no
desire for. This would indicate a de-
rangement of the digestive organs.
If animals thus afflicted are neg
lected they will soon run down in
flesh, drop off in their milk and be-
come a bill of expense rather than a
profitable animal.
To overcome this trouble the ami
NAL should be given good, clean, nu-
tritious, digestible feed and with
same a tonic to regulate the digestive
organs.
Oftentimes an animal thus afflicted
Is disposed of at an unreasonably
small amount, and if by chance this
animal is purchased by one well
versed In the care and treatment OF
such animals, is converted into a
profitable animal at very little ex.
pense.
