Place for the Separator.

Just where to place a rea separa-
tor for convenient use is sometimes a
question. Convenience requires that
the place be in or near the barn,
though it is sometimes placed in the
kitchen or some portion of the home
building. A room with cement floor
and piastered walls can be construct
ed in some part of the barn where it
will be convenient and more sanitary
than if placed in the kitchen or in
any open portion of the barn where
It is likely to be affected by dust and
odors. This room should have a water
system and proper drainage SO hat 1t
may be kept clean and swept all the
time. The work necessary in prepar.
ing this room is not expensive hot
does it require expert help, but such a
room in some locality is absolutely
necessary for the production of clean
milk products and in lessening the
work of the dairy. Care in handling
the milk and plenty of hot water in
cleaning the vessels will remove very
n any of the criticisms that are made
against the farm dairyman,

Depth to Gull
tivate Corn.

Editor.

The depth to cultivate corn can best
be determined by an examination of
the roots of a corn plant. The most
convincing way is to dig up some cor
roots. The first time it is done one
will be surprised to find the roots so
neal the surface, Figure 1 shows the
roots of a corn plant and the corn cul-
tivator shovel indicates what will hap
pen when it is run two or three inches
deep-a good many roots cut and
these roots near the surface are the
ones that do most to feed the plant
as the most available plant food is
near the surface.
Effect of Cutting Roots. Cutting
the roots gives the plant a setback
that it can never recover from. 1t
Immediately sends out new roots, but
if the others had not been cut it
would have gone into making new

roots. 1t also sets the plant back, so
that it will not ripen as Don as it
otherwise would, and that is a very
important point in this state, where
the corn season is short enough at
best.
How to Cultivate Shallow. There
are now many makes of cultivator
shovels that can be run SO as to cut
an inch or two below the surface,
loosening up the top soil and cutting
all weeds. For the first cultivation it
will be all right to use the diamond
shovel, but after that use the shovel
that cuts ear the surface.
So Called Burning of Corn. This is
caused by deep cultivation. When
corn is cultivated deep and is allowed
to go for three to four weeks without
cultivation and is then cultivated deep
sc many roots are cut off that thu
plant can not take up moisture fast
enough to supply its needs for growth
and Transportation. With shallow cul-
tivetion the corn can be gone over
late without the burning resulting as
the roots are not cut.
Where the Plant Feeds. The corn
plant feeds principally in the soil
turned with the plow; therefore the
| plant roots should be allowed to come
as near the surface as they will. If
the cultivating is done nearly as deep
as the blowing but little soil is left
the plant to draw its food from. In
the illustration the roots in front that
hang down were, when growing,
quite near the surface in the soil that
was washed away. So that nearly all
the roots we see were quite near the
surface.

CANADA THISTLE.
BY w. c. Palmer, Agricultural
Editor.

< X :. X :. X !. !. :. !. :. j. !. :. J. !. :.
The Canadian thistle is one of the
weeds that has great adaptation for
growing under adverse conditions. 1t
can thrive in a field of grain, of corn.
and even in a meadow. 1t is a sort of
trust or monopoly weed in that it be-
lieves: First, in combination; second,
carries on a good deal of it's work out
of sight; third, in taking advantage of
every means for existence.
Its Manner of Combination. Look at
the cut Gig. q and see how the
plants grow on a so called under
ground stem, which is constantly
sending up new plants so if those
plants above ground are killed new
ones are just ready to come up. When
the plants become any size they be-
gin sending down food to be stored
in the underground stem.
A Good Deal of Its Work Out Of
Sight. This out of sight work is the
underground stem in which it stores
up food and from which it sends up
new plants, making a store house that
all the plants can draw Oh as they
need it and that they all contribute
to; and that make it possible for the
plant to send up new shoots.
Uses Every Means. 1t is not on.
tent with the underground stem but
also produces seed which enables it
to make big jumps, and to start new
centers.
Distribution. By referring to the
map Gig. y it will be seen that the
Canadian thistle is most prevalent in
the northeastern counties of the state.
1t will not long be content to stay
there. 1t is constantly charging its
territory, so even if you are outside
the infested area better be on the
lookout for it.
Eradication. The eradication of this
ingenious and Industrious weed can
be brought about only by taking it at
its weakest point. When it is getting
ready to produce seed it draws tn
most heavily on the food stored up i
it's roots. This, then, is the weak
point. Now it when in bloom, then
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1911-08-03

pillow thoroughly so as to cut all roots
then plow at intervals often enough
so as to keep any of it from getting
up as if it is allowed to come up and
get green it will get a fresh hold. In
fact it would be like drowning a cat
by letting it get up to get air one in
a while. If the blowing is begun be.
fore it is in blossom it will be harder
to kill.
Small Patches. Watch for the
small patches. They can be smoth-
cred by covering with tar paper, but
remember that the plant by Its under
ground stem can send up new plants
SO put the paper several feet outside
where the plants are coming up.

II IS for that reason that we are anxious

statistics also compare very favorably
with those of June 80 year ago. An
addition of $780, 100000 TO loans and

Mining Dividends.
In the first six months of the current
year 123 American mining companies
paid out S4l 2S0.3lS in dividends, which
compares with 1l2 companies which
paid $34,2lS.l02 during the same pc
riod in 1910 and sc companies and SIS,
i43,139 in 1909. These figures are
compiled by the Mining and Engineer
ing World, and while they do not fully
represent the returns made by all com
panies, yet the companies reporting are
sufficient in number to give fairly
good representation Of the profits real,
lied as sane and safe method Of op'
Grating mines and works.
In view of the fact that there are
hundreds of mines being worked at a
profit sufficient to pay dividends hut
from which no reports are obtalnable,
the half year Just completed will stand
out as probably the most profitable IN
point of dividends paid in the history
of the industry.
Adding the $7,722 ,52l disbursed by
eight securities holding corporations, an
amount derived from the holding of
shares of other corporations makes a
total Of $40 9,002,S42, which has gone
into the hands of holders OF stocks of
American mines and works during the
half year Just ended.
Almost $l,25O 900 900 new securities
have been issued since January !, as
against less than $1,050, 100000 during
tho first half of 1910. The railroads
have been wholly responsible for the
difference. their offerings this year hav,
ing exceeded 55,000,000, against less
worth noticing that the principal ex
preston has been in the hotation OF
short term obligations; these have been
used to the aggregate of well over
$25o,000,0 900 as contrasted with less
than $l60000,000 in 1910. Bonds have
been put out to total of about $525,
600, 900, or Sl9,000,000 more than in the
first six months of last year. Indus
trial applications for new capital have
not quite reached S3S0,000,000. Small
increases in bonds and notes have beer
more than offset by a falling off IL

ing to few million dollars. During
