The Science Of Botany.

Botany is generally understood to
have originated with Aristotle,
about 341 B. G. But it was not
until the fifteenth century that the
science began to assume anything
like its modern aspect. But the
real founder of modern botany was
the justly celebrated l-innaeus, who
in 1875 made known his SYSTEM
which has ever since been recognize
ed as the foundation of the science.
Aristotle merely started the in
quiries which received their full an.

HAY GROWN FOR THE MARKET
There Is Always Demand for Clean
Timothy and It VIII Bring Price
Beyond Feeding Value.
(By w. NJ. Kelley

Wy W. AVA.
Timothy hay should be grown for
market every time. The market wants
clean timothy and will pay a price
far beyond its feeding value; for that
reason 1t pays to grow what the mar
ket calls for.
II we grow the best timothy we
must plow our ground early and give
1t a thorough tillage for number of
weeks before the field is needed The
mineral fertilizers should be thor
oughly mixed with the soil and put
down where they will be within reach
of the great bulk of feeding roots and
not on the surface where they will
attract growth Of feeding roots and
consequently shut off their supply of
food II drouth occurs. This is Of
unusual Importance in applying fer
tilizers to small grains and grass
crops because the crops cannot be
cultivated to conserve moisture.
We seed timothy about the second
week in August without a nurse crop.
We apply one-half bushel of seed to
tne acre WIN common WneelDarrOW
seeder and cover 1t with weeder or
smoothing harrow and finish with a
land roller to even the surface and
bring up moisture so that the seeds
will terminate quickly to make an
even stand.
Can this system Of growing hay be
continued without injury to the land
| Why not? The use OF chemicals
grows humus. Manures are composed
largely Of humus. What difference
does 1t make whether we grow humus
right on the field or haul 1t there?
Theorists say must haul 1t, but
believe II we keep our soils filled
with grass roots that are fed by chem
ical plant foods 1t is possible to main
tain the fertility of grass land.

COLONY HOUSE IS PORTABLE
VIII Accommodate Anywhere From
25 to 100 Fowis-PulIed by
Team of Horses.

The colony house is portable house
that will accommodate anywhere from
rs to hundred fowls, and small
enough to be pulled readily by team
OF horses. 1t is not desirable to keep
more than 100 fowls in colony
house. A house 7x12 feet, If properly
ventilated. will be large enough for
30 fowls. 1t is very essential that the
house should provide a copious supply
OF fresh air at all times, but there
should be no draughts of cold air on
the fowls at night. A low temperature
Is not necessarily injurious; it is the
extremes of heat and cold that should
be avoided. The danger of keeping
large focks in small. close houses lies
largely In the difference in tempera-.
night and the outside air. The house
becames warm from the body heat of
the fowls at night, and the sudden
change Of temperature to which they
are exposed when let out in the morn
Ing Is the cause of many Of the colds
and much Of so-called 'roup" in the
average flock On the other hand. a
roomy house with relatively small
number Of fowls in 1t, having glass
windows in the south, will have high
temperature during the day from the
sun shining on the glass. while at
night there will be u sharp fall in temp
perature, chilling the fowls and pro-
ducing colds. There should be no
great variation of temperature in the
house between night and day.
The most practicable way of over
coming this difficulty is to leave one
end Of the house largely open. In a
colony house with 80 fowls the space
usually occupied by the door would be
left open night and day. For protec-
ton from wild animals door made
of poultry netting can be used, closing
1t at night and opening 1t in the morn
Ing. In sections where the snow
drifts badly the door may be covered
with burlap or some light fabric that
will admit the air and at the same
time keep the snow out. The frame
OF the mouse may be two by four stun
covered with siding. In place Of sid
ing common boards with battens over
the cracks may be used. The roof may
be OF shingles or of a good quality of
roofing paper. Experiments at the
Utah agricultural experiment station
showed good results with the colony
open front house during cold weather.
The body warmth of the fowls is re-
lied upon to keep the temperature OF
the house above that of outdoors, and
at the same time The cloth window
or curtain front admits a coupious sup
ply Of fresh air. The open front
may be adapted to the stationary
house, as well as to the colony house
The colony houses should be KEEP,
far enough apart and moved Otter
enough to give the fowls clean, frest
ground to range over.
