Preparing For the Seeding
OF Wheat.

mer for fall seeding of wheat. This
practice gives good results In case
the manure Is applied in a thin coat
and is fine and well rotted. The pillow.
ing under of a thick coat of coarse
manure is Objectionable as it tends
to hold up the furrow slice and allow
the soil to dry out. On this account
it is usually better to use the manure
as top dressing after the wheat is
seeded.
In sections where the Hessian fly
has done little or no damage to previ.
Gus crops it is best to seed fairly
early so that the young wheat plants
will make vigorous growth and be-
come quite hardy before the winter
sets in. A good time to seed is from
the 10th to the 18th of September. II
the fly is bad somewhat later seed
ing (the first two weeks IN October)
is preferable, as the adult insects will
lay most of their eggs in the early
seeded wheat.
Wheat growers should by all means
get the best seed wheat obtainable.
There is much difference in varieties.
Usually the red or harder wheats will
weigh more per bushel, make a bet
ter -four and bring a little more on
the market than the white or softer
wheats The white wheats, however,
frequently yield better, especially on
low lands and during moist seasons.
The SHEPHERDS Perfection, Buda Pest,
Century and Niger are good wheats
Of the first class, while the Early
Windsor. American Banner and Ply
mouth Rock are some of the better
white wheats.
A careful application of the above
suggestions; the preparation of fine,
fairly firm and moist seed bed, which
will insure a quick, even termination
of the seed; the fairly early seeding,
which will favor vigorous growth in
the fall and ar abundant stouling in
the spring, and the seeding of wheat
of some of the better adapted vari.
cites will do much to increase the
yield and profit of the Michigan wheat
crop. V. M. SHOESMITH.

~ HE usual practice In growing
wheat in Michigan Is for the
wheat to follow oats, barley or
other crops which are removed from
the field in midsummer. The previous
crop takes most of the moisture; then
after harvest the field, with little veg
citation to act as a cover, is exposed
to the hot summer sun and winds
AS a result the evaporation Is excess
sive and the field soon becomes too
dry to plow in good condition, If, in
frequently late in August or early In
September before a good rain is Sc
cured, and much of this runs Off be-
cause Of the hard condition Of the
soil 1t is practically impossible to
prepare a good seed bed for wheat by
this method of blowing late when
the soil is In poor condition, and the
effect is invariably seen in the crop.
If the oat field had been examined
Just previous to harvest a sufficient
amount of moisture would have been
found to enable the field to have been
plowed in fairly good condition. The
discing or blowing of the soil would
have made a soil mulch which would
have preserved most of the moisture
and left the soil In ideal condition
to receive the rain fall. The impor-
tant thing in connection with the pre-
paration Of a seed bed when the mois-
ture is limited or when the time is
short, as in the case of wheat follow
ing spring grain, Is to get on the
field early; only day or two delay
may mean the loss of so much mois-
ture that all operations must stop
until the next rain.
If field can be plowed at once
after the removal of the previous
crop this may answer very well, but
it is better, especially II the blowing
cannot be entirely finished within a
very few days, to use the disc har-
row to form mulch to hold the mois-
ture until the ground can be plowed
and narrowed.

Sir John Fastolf was the original of Shakespeare's Falstaff and in his day was continual butt for the tests os tho town and borough of Southwark. Though he had fought at Agincourk when Jack Cade invaded the borough, he showed great cowardice. When Cade was yet some way off Fastolf had armed and fortified his house and Sarrisoned it with veterans of the French wars. On the arrival of Cade however, he withdrew his garrison ard ded to the Tower leaving his neigh bors to the mercy of the rebels. Fas- tolfs matrimonial adventures seem also to have been another source of unpop ularity, for. having married a widow named Scrope. he seized her property and kept his stepson out of his inheri tance during his own hfedma.-Lon don News

Wouldn't Be Fooled Aos,n

A shepherd once, to prove the quick ness of his dog. which was lying be fore the fire in the house where ws were talking, said to me In the middle of sentence concerning something else, "l'm thinking, sir, the COW IS in the potatoes"
 Though he purposely laid no stress On these words and said them In a quiet, unconcerned tone of voice, the dog, which appeared to be asleep, imme aiately jumped up and, leaping through the open window, scrambled up to the turf roof of the house, from which be could see the potato field. He then not seeing the COW there, ran and look. d into the barn where she was and daGing that all was right. came bach 10 the house.
 After a short time the shepherd saiC the same words again, and the dog re- peated his lookout, but on the false alarm being the third time given the dog got up and. wagging his tail, look ed his master in the face with so com. teal an expression of interrogation tha, | he could not help laughing aloud al ] him, on whief. with slight growl, he laid himself down in his warm corner with an offended air, as if determined not to be made fool of again.--Lon don Standard.

One For the Minister,

An old minister in the south side of Glasgow who was noted for his habit of dishing up old sermons again and again was one day advertised to preach in a suburban church at the anniversary service there. An old wo- man who in days gone by had sat un der his ministry, but who had now re moved from his neighborhood, deter mined to go in and hear him preach on this particular occasion. After the close of the service she waited on the clergyman, who greeted her cordially and asked what she thought of his dis. course. "Eh. man." she replied can. didly, tits lang time sin I first heard ye preach that yin. sir, and I've heard ye at it guid wheen O times Gin' syne"

 The medication of the fore limbs begins at once after hatching. when the claws of the digits fall off and the whole clawli':e hand begins to t1atten and become wing shaped. Feathers soon appear. and before full growth is reached not a vestige remains of the original character
 The adult birds not only have no claws upon their wings. but their thumbs even are so poorly developed that one would hardly suspect that in the nestlings we have the nearest ap- proach to a quadruped found among existing birds.-London Tit-Bits.

Curious Bibles.


 Among the curious Bibles is the Prosecuting Printers Bible, contain. ing the phrase. Printers have perse- cuted me without cause" Psalm cxix, l6D. The substitution of the word printers" for "princes" is responsible for the giving of this name to this Bible. All we know of this edition is stated by Stevens in his catalogue of the CaxtOn exhibition of Bibles. This authority tells us that these words were put into Bible printed before 17O2.
 There is also the Ears to Ear" Bible. in which occurs the expression "Whoso hath ears to ear, let him hear (Mat. thew xii, 43). This adaptation to cock. ney usage is found in an octavio Bible published by the Oxford Press in 1810.
