Small Potatoes for Seed.

A Clay county correspondent
writes. 'I'he potatoes which | raised
last year were not very large on ac.
count of the bugs, which destroyed
the grass before the potatoes were
we'll matured Will these potatoes
be all right for seed? If so, will they
produce as good crop as potatoes not
affected by bugs?'
In a general way, the common DO.
tato is not a seed. but the thickened
part OF an underground stem, hence
cuttings are planted instead of seed.
The cuttings will be much lowered In
vitality by the attacks of the bugs
SO that the young plants will not get
as good a start as otherwise. They
may recover with good care, and if
the plants are sprayed. They will
recover their vitality, but l would not
recommend using such seed year after
year, as it will soon run out your DO.

Dodder is Attaclsins Alfalfa Fields in
Many Portions OF the State
How to Get Rid of 1t.
BY DR.. E. w. OLIVE.
South Dakota State College.

Quite number OF inquiries have
recently come to the botanist at the
State College concerning disease at
tacking alfalfa. There will first be no.
ticed In the field certain spots of al
falfa which seem to be covered with
a tangled growth which resembles
corn silk. Look closely, and it viii
readily be noticed that the yellowish,
corn-silk-hke growth twines about the
alfalfa with death grip the twining
yellowish stems sending little root
suckers down into the host plant,
sucking up the juices and soon killing
the alfalfa. Little lunches of whtish
flowers occur on the stems. The
whole infected spot, sometimes six
feet or more in diameter dies and Of
ten turns red, as if burnt by fire.
Now this dodder got into the field
in the first place by the farmer plant

ing 1T when he sowed his alfalfa.
Nearly all alfalfa seed from Montana
and from the Black Hills SO | am told,
contains dodder seed. The seedsmen
who sell us the foul alfalfa seed are
perhaps not so much TO blame, for it
is g pretty hard proposition to clean
doGder seed out of alfalfa The one
we should blame more is the grower,
who allowed the dodder to grow in the
field.
Dodder is an annual: hence the
proper procedure ia order to kill it
out of a field s simply to prevent it
from seeding This is, however,
easier to say than to accomplish.
When the parasite first appears in al
falfa or clover, cut the spot over care
fully ana closely with sickle or
knife, dry and burn all the growth.
Some put straw on the spot, sprinkle
with kerosene and burn. Another way
is to dig up thoroughly all the plants
in the affected spot, to slightly be.
yond its limits, then let the spot rest
some weeks before reseeding the al
falfa. If let go over a single season,
one original spot may spread the para.
site over a large field, and the field Of
alfalfa NAV have to be entirely aban.

THINGS ABOUT WOMEN NO MAN UNDERSTANDS

sical show, or farce. 1t Is to please

chance to turn on the hydrant in the
first act, and sob happily on to the fall
of the curtain. After which she is ready
to wiring out her handkerchiefs. put a
dab Of powder on her nose and go out
and consume Welsh rabbits.
Another thing that man learns Is
that women count II unto themselves
for Righteousness to shed tears, and
that they Invariably speak well of any
woman who is a real good. free weep
er. II a woman's eyes fill up with
tears when she hears a story Of hard
ship and suffering, she has a sense Of
having done something noble and gen.
erous, although she may have done
nothing but cry to relieve the afflicted
peoples sufferings.
II have known of many women who
enjoyed a reputation for being kind and
generous, who never contributed anything
but few tears to the poor. Conversely,
woman who never cries Is always con-
sidered hard-hearted by other women
no matter how much cash and personal
labor she bestows in charity.
Let Her Weep.
Still another thing that II takes
man years and years of experience in
matrimony to find out. is that when
woman begins to weep 1t is worse than
folly. II is madness, to try to stop her.
for instead of tears being an affiiction
TO a woman, they are a benediction.
Just what happens TO a woman, men
tally and physically, during a good
cry, nobody knows. She doesn't her
self, but some miracle takes place that
washes all of the anger and bitterness
and resentment out of her system, and
leaves her feelings like an angel. Also
during the process her entire point OF
view is changed.

"Of course" said the second man, 1.-THE
great riddle Of the universe that no man
ever guesses is woman. but the very in.
ner part of the mystery is the feminine
tear duct.
What is the psychology of woman's
tears? Why does she weepP What does
sho weep about7 Are her tears q mani
festation of Joy or sorrow? And how can
you stop her from crying?
NO man can answer these questions,
and trying to answer them has driven
many a poor fellow to drink.
II admit that there are a few points
about a woman's tears that even the
laundering masculine intellect gets wise
to in time. For instance. that woman
cries in order to get her own way. or
when she is beaten in an argument. That
is because experience has taguht her that
there is some chemical in a womah's \

and makes him melt down into a kind Of
mushy poultice that she can do with as
she will.

PROPER CARE OF
MATING BIRDS
April and May Are Mating
Month for Canaries.

Canaries may be mated during tn,
, , months of January. February. March
April, and May. The breeding cage should
be from 10 to "a inches long Place the
male alongside the female, in a separate
cage. give them a few days play, say
from four to eight days They will in that
time gain more affection for each other
than If put together at once, which fire.
quently causes them to quarrel and fight
and perhaps necessitates their separation
There should always be placed in the
mating cage a piece of cuttle-bone for the
formation of shell or the hen may lay
soft-shelled eggs. There is also required
some bird-nesting material for the con-
struction of the nest. To the seed diet OF
the mated birds there should be added
hard-boiled egg and cracker, rolled fine
All Going Well.
When the male begins TO feed the female
you may rest assured that all is going
well, and this is the time to put in the
nesting material Do not put in much at
time, however, as the birds will scatter
1t over the bottom of the cage and render
it unfit for use.
If, for some unknown reason the birds
take dislike to each other, and will not
mate, it will be necessary to try and dis
cover which one is at fault, and at once
substitute another bird.
After having been mated about a week.
the hen will begin to lay one egg each
DAY until from four TO six eggs are
laid. Upon these she will sit from four
teen to sixteen days, when the eggs
should hatch in the order in which they
have been laid. Never disturb the-egg
or they may not hatch. During the
period of incubation the male rests the
female by sitting on the nest a few
hours each day. Should either become
addicted to the vice OF breaking the
eggs, they should be bountifully fed with
egg and bird dainties." Should they
still persist, the eggs can be removed as
fast as laid and their places supplied
with eggs whitfield from chalk.
Feed the Bird Eggs.
When the hen ceases to lay, then re-
turn the eggs, and all will go we'll Three
days before the Matching Of the first
egg. feed the bird, in addition to the
seed, half a hard-boiled egg, grated and
mixed with cracker dust Continue this
DIET until the nestlipgs are old enough
to take care of therhseIves.s
The young birds, whens weaned from
the old birds. should be placed in a cage
entirely away; otherwise fretfulness is
encouraged, which is well to avoid A
wire partition will do for a day or so,
when they are first separated, so that
the old birds can feed them through the
wires. ..-."s
When caging-off young birds. give them
at first grated egg and cracker. When
they are about a month old, introduce
seed into the cage in a separate dish, and
also little soaked rapeseed, with the
view of giving the birds an opportunity
of finding out for what the seed is in
tended.
Generally, when about six weeks old,
the young canaries begin to shell the
seed, and at that time the proportion Of
soft food may be gradually diminished
until the seed at length takes the place
Of the egg and cracker. An Increase of
seed shells upon the cage bottom will be
a guide in reducing the quantity of soft
food.
