Daniel EahrenheIt.

In view Of the abnormal weather
which we have had this summer we
think a tribute Of respect should be
paid to the memory Of Gabriel Daniel
Fahrenheit. who was born on Septem-
Der 16, either in 1876 or 1740. 1t Is
hard to say which. Before his day sew
eral Attempts had been made to meas
ure the heat level. not the heat, by
tubes containing oil Of spirits Of wine.
but 1t lay with a bankrupt merchant
Of Dantzig to show how the feat could
be successfully accomplished.
The first Thermometers were made
with spirits Of wine; but the ingeni-
GUS Gabriel soon adopted mercury as
his medium. and SO 1t has remained
became known throughout the world.
and though more rational method Of
graduation has since been adopted. the
popular mind still clings to the Fab
renheit scale. Our own Royal society
thought highly Of this humble inven-
tor and acknowledged his genius by
making him one OF Its fellows. To the
transactions" of the society he con-
tributed several papers.-Pall Mall

CARING FOR
MOLTING HENS
Require Large Amount of Feed
Containing Nitrogen, Such
as OIL Neal and
Protein Feeds.
(By j. BAILEY BRUCE.)

(By j. BAILEY BRUCE)
Most people believe that If they
can force their hens to molt early they
but this is not true. Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments, but the facts are
net generally known.
Molting hens require a large amount
Of feed containing nitrogen such as
oil meal. meat and other feeds rich
in protein. Molting can be forced by
has been shown by experiments that
scantily fed hens begin molting ear
lier than those on full feed. but the
former do not finish moltins much
earlier
Starved hens molt more uniformly
than others and this Is particularly
noticeable In hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station 1t was
found that on basis of 100 hens the
fed flock produced eggs to the value
of $29.27 more than by the starved
flock
The total income from all the birds
was $278 for the starved flock and
$3.50 for the fed flock. difference in
favor of natural molting for the year
| Of about $95.
| A western poultryman of long ex-
perience gives his method of controll-
ing molting as follows:
AS soon as the hens are through
| laying he turns them out In alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran only, in addi-
ton. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration o. grains and meat. giving a
light feed in the morning and all they
will eat at noon and night. Under
this treatment they finish molting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. BY October 1
they are all in good laying condition
and make a profit through the fall
and winter

BACTERIA ON
ROOTS OF CORN
Supply Sufficient Nitrogen to
Serve AbundantIy Their
Purposes When Soil
Ia Exhausted.
CBy WALTER B. LEUTZ.)


How the clover acted as a fertilizer
was not known until about fifteen
years ago. Since that time our
knowledge upon the subject has very
considerably increased and every year
now something more Is learned
Leguminous and pod bearing plants
unaided have no more ability to help
themselves to the nitrogen of the air
under any circumstances than have
other green plants.
Certainly bacteria existing in the
soil penetrates the soft tissues OF
young roots of legumes and multiply
within these lively tissues SO as to
form little mass Of gelatinous sub
stance. Responding to the irritation
produced the plant builds a nodular
structure about the bacterial invaders,
consequent upon the sting of an in
sect
Numerous nodules may be formed
on the roots of one plant and they
have characteristics peculiar to the
species of plant on which they occur
these plants with nodules or tubercles
;..e capable of getting sufficient nitro,
gen from the air to serve abundantly
their purposes when the soil has no
supplies, and when other plants must
die from the want of 1t.
Either the bacteria are the direct
agents in the process or they aid the
,,lo MI 70 do WI
aid, 1t cannot do. May there leg
umes organisms or some OF them be
made to form tubercles or other
plants for instant maize? Here is q
matter of the greatest moment. I'm
doubtedly they have some times in
the past become adapted to legumi
nous vegetation There is nothing te
prevent corn from gathering tubercles
We know now that corn can be
very decidedly modified in its chem
ical composition by processes OF
breeding. Types of grain can be pro
duced in which for instance the nitro
gen percentage is greatly increased
and so long way improved as food
for man and beast.
II, in addition to this, Indian corr
can be made to furnish itself. through
accommodating bacteria, with this
higher nitrogen content directly from
the exhaustless storehouses of the air
the agricultural miracle of the age
Will have been wrought.
No one can predict whether or mo-
this will ever come to pass. but from
what is now known, the endeavor t.
bring II to come to pass seems q
lest worth while
