August. In the bright sunshine which
followed the plants wilted and died.
The crop was failure except a por-
tion of the lower corner, which was
on a poor clay knob, and there a few
good heads matured.
Due consideration was given to the
fact of poor drainage and also to ex-
cessive amounts OF water about the
roots, to which might be attributed
much of the failure. Still it seemed a
plausible conjecture that there might
be extraordinary amounts of soluble
salts In the soil and that they would
have a poisonous effect on the roots.
A piece of rather stiff clay land, one
eighth of an acre in size, that had
been manured and planted to truck
crops for many years and upon which
cabbage had rotted badly the preced-
ing year was again treated with ten
tons per acre Of rotted manure. This
was plowed down and the land was
prepared for the crop.
Plots were marked off and treated
as follows:
Plot 1-complete fertilizer 1000 pounds
per acre.
Plot 2--Check no fertilizer
Plot Slime, sixty bushels per acre.
Plot 4-Sulphate of potash 300 pounds
per acre.
Plot 5--Muriate of potash. 300 pounds
per acre.
1t had been noticed in some other
work under similar conditions that
muriate of potash seemed to have the
effect of promoting the vigor of the
plants. Fifteen varieties of cabbage
were planted across the plots, nine
varieties of French and six OF Amer
lean origin. The plants We're set June
%. They started Off nicely and grew
well until the first week of August, at
which time there were incessant rains.
followed by bright sunshine.
All the plants on all the plots wilted
down and only few recovered. Most
of those wilted died In short time
with black rot A few fingered on.
but did not make satisfactory heads.

Thing. E...nsIsI In III. Dairy.

There are three things that are abso

a milk scale. Babcock tester and a
centrifugal separator, Where dairying
Is made a business these things are
very generally used. but In the small

often wanting. Statistics show that
the average amount Of butter produced
per COW IN the United States does not
exceed $50 pounds per annum. Where
pains are taken 10 know the capacity
Of every COW In the herd as In a well
equipped dairy plant. such a COW soon
meets the knife. and Il follows that
were the COWS OF the small herds con

would be lamenfably low, 50 this ques-
