PUT OUT THE LIGHT.

It is hard to believe that dairy barn could be battened so tight and have windows and doors so close fitting as to virtually put out lantern because of a lack of oxygen, but such an oc- currence was related the other day by a farmer to one of the speakers on the Iowa dairy special, which has been making tour of the state. This chap thought at first that his wick was short or the oil low, but on going out side of the barn, where the air was pure, the light revived. This fact was noticed on two other occasions, so that there was no question as to the cause of the poor light. Yet in the face of this terrific condition of affairs cows were kept housed within this stable and were expected to give a profitable milk return when they had virtually no oxygen with which to pu- rify their blood and make milk pro duction possible. After hearing the lecture we understand this fellow went home and put in window between every other set of studding and insert ed glass and cheesecloth alternately over every other opening. This let in the sunshine, which is the best germ killer, and admitted fresh air without making draft. A whole lot of barns need ventilating in the above manner when the air isn't so absolutely foul that it will extinguish a lantern.

ABOARD A DAIRY SPECIAL.

It was the writer's good fortune the other day to make trip of hundred miles aboard a dairy demonstration special. The itinerary of the special had been arranged beforehand, and at each place where stops, were made crowds of interested people, mostly farmers, were present to receive the benefit of the hours instruction given by the several members of the party. There were four coaches, in each of which a half hours lecture was given by as many speakers, who took up the matter of testing the cows with kle Babcock test, balanced rations, farn ventilation, silos, etc., while the last half hour was devoted to giving a COW demonstration from the door of a baggage car which was equipped as stock car and at the time referred to contained a Holstein COW with a milk record of 18,O00 pounds, a Jersey bull worth $1,O00 and a Jersey COW with a butter record of 500 pounds per year. At the proper stage in the demonstrators talk these animals were led to the door of the car and their 6LAOAS POAhIo d5 AOAAJ pointed out and contrasted with traits and characteristics of beef animals
 Among the traits emphasized for the good dairy cow were vigor and consti- tuition, depth of body at the heart line, a big paunch or barrel, we'll devel- oped udder extending well forward and back, large and winding milk veins, soft pliable skin, bright and prominent eye and a condition of flesh along the back indicating that. the feed given was put into the. udder in the shape of milk and not on the back in the shape of fat and flesh. At all stops made a rare degree of inter est was manifested, and there is little question that scores of those who at tended the lectures went home with determination to put more brains into and to get more revenue out of their dairy operations.

TOP GRAPHING TENDER APPLES.

As a result of observing the thrift ness and hardness of top grafted ap- pie trees the writer has much faith in the possibility of producing semi-tender apples of the Jonathan and Crimson Golden type on hardy stocks like the Hibernal and Virginia crab in north ern attitudes, where the former varie- ties could not be sufficiently hardy to withstand the severe winter weather. It is true that for its season there is no apple which will fetch more on the early winter markets than a juicy, we'll colored Wealthy, but if the two varieties mentioned could by top graft ing be added to the rather limited list of known hardy apples northern hor- ticulturists would be materially bene- fited. The writer would like to hear from any reader who has given the above plan such a trial as would demonstrate its practicability. It would seem to give much promise.

GIVE THEM A LIFT.

In attitudes where snows are deep and winter temperatures low a kindly service may be rendered some of the birds which remain and bear the rig ors of the cold weather by putting out food in shrubs or trees so that they may have access to it. Nothing an swers the purpose better than pieces of beef suet. If this should not be handy scraps from the table will do. If a little platform is fixed and sus- pended from a limb screenings or other gSIin may be scattered there, and the little feathered friends will be very gra1eful for it. Such slight help as this may be the means of carrying many insect destroying birds through the season of short fare and cold nights.

Some figures which have been com piled the past season on the subject of pasturage for hogs are interesting and may be put to good use next spring in providing such pasture. They show that an acre of mixed oats, rape and clover produced S31 pounds of pork at a cost of $3.34 per hundred: clover alone, 748 pounds at $3.51 per hun dredl; rape, 713 pounds at $344 per hundred; oats, rape and Canada field peas. 694 pounds at $363 per hundred, while an acre of blue grass and tim othy produced 367 pounds of pork at a cost of $3.S1. It is interesting to note the economical production of pork with the first two pastures, in which clover appears. Had alfalfa pasture been available in the experiment it would probably have made an even better showing than did the clover.

In a general way that type of farm ing has most to commend it from the standpoint of the welfare of the soil and the owner of it in which the amount paid to railroads for transpor- tation of products is reduced to mini mum. It is because of this fact that raising hogs, sheep and cattle Is bet ter type of farming than grain selling md why butter production is better than either. With grain the value of inc shipment is from a cent to a cent md half a pound, with stock to 10 ,ents and with butter 25 to 35 cents. Not only this, but the amount of fer ility removed from the farm is in a quite accurate indirect ratio to the ralue per pound of the product ship ped. There is something in the above ,acts that the general farmer might we'll take note of.

If the field on which the stalks are standing is well supplied with humus -decaying vegetable matter-there is no particular reason for cutting them to pieces and blowing them under, as the mineral fertilizing elements-phos- phOrous and potash-will be left in the soil in the shape of ashes in case the stalks were burned. But the fact re- mains that the vast majority of soils are deficient in humus; hence it is bet ter to cut the stalks to pieces and blow them under. When silos are in stalled on every farm, as they ought to be- this question of what to do with the stalks will take care of itself, as the bulk of them will be converted into ensflage, with nothing but six to eight inches of stubs left afield.

To one who has made the rail. trip across the Utah deserts 1t seems i'm possible that men from the more hu- mid eastern states would have the hardihood to locate there and under take dry farming, and yet this is ex- actly what is being done. As a result the big sheepmen who have herded their ffocks on the mountains in the summer months and in the winter on the deserts, where they subsist on sagebrush and cactus, contend that this movement of settlers to the desert means the ultimate extinction of the grazing business as it has been known In years past.
