IMPROVED GARDEN IMPLEMENTS

Among the many Improvements
none along the line of gardening equal
the wheel tools for the saving of labor
ard the efficiency Of work. We
thought we had solved the problem
by planting in long rows and using
the one-horse cultivator for the main
part Of the work.
This is a long :;eride ahead Of the
handhoe but the most steady horse
will sometimes blunder upon q row
Of plants.
Beside there Is often a bit of spare
time in tho morning or evening when
the soil is just right. yet to harness
the horse would take so long that it
would not pay for the short pc iod.
so the work is postponed until rain
or drought places the soil In less
favorable condition.
The wheel hoe puts the groua. In
better condition for plantin.: than any
other method. It marks the rows
uniformly and the drill puts the
seeds in regularly instead of in bunch
es. thus saving in the quantity re-
quired, yet with the seads properly
spaced. firming the earth over them
after planting.
The regularity in planting enables
one to work close to the plans with
the wheel tools without injuring one.
They are more easily thinned out
as necessary, after they come up. and

While destroying all weeds In Its
path 1t cuts thin layer Of soil which
readily disintergrates leaving a fine-
ly pulverized surface which serves az
a dust mulch in dry weather.
The implement can be run almost
as fast as one would naturally walk.
and as 1t makes complete path the
work IS much moro rapid than that
of the hoe, as we'll as easier.
If shallow trench is wanted for
planting, the shovel attachment does
tie work. When ready to set out
celery plants this tool does half the
ivcrk OF the trench digging and after
the plants are established It does all
the necessary work until banking up
is required :.
Wedding onion beds becomes an
easy job. the present system doing tho
work much more effectually when the
onions are planted in rows.
Since this tool admits of close plant
ing the saving in space Is very much
greater than when the horse-cultiva-
to: was employee.
Cultivation means more than de-
stroying weeds: more than loosening
the soil There is chemical trans
formation going on whenever the
ground is light enough to admit the
entrance Of air. and the soil which
fails to get this falls short OF the
highest possibilities.

Like practically all agricultural pro-
ducts corn and other grains are SUBJ
ject to tho attack Of numerous des-
tructive insects, some Of them COM
mencing their depredations in the
ripening grain In the fields. while
others s.bide solely In the barns, store
rooms or cribs where the grain IS
stored.
The actual loss occasioned by in
sects In whole grain and the various
stock foods cannot be accurately
ertimated; the grain Is not only re-
duced in weight and consequent SELL
ing value but Is often rendered
wholly unfit for human food and less
valuable as food for live stock
A, species Of insects of which the
parents are moths Is found to be very
destructive. this is the angoumois grain
moth. the larvae of>>which develops
entirely in the kernels of corn or
other grain
The Southern farmer generally
applies the term "fy weevil" to this
species to distinguish 1t from the rice
or black weevil. but the term is hard
~ appropriate. because the adult fly

During the year i've or six gener-
atoms Of moths may be produced.
Farmers commonly remark that grain
becomes infested in spring when large
NUMBERS of moths are seen flying In
the granaries-thus gaining for them
the name fly weevil'; but in reality
the, grain is generally first infested in
the field.
These moths commence to emerge
in April. and earlier in the warmer
sections. and succeeding generations
may mature about every six weeks.
Grain in the field is evidently not
infested until nearly grown. or In such
condition that the first moths mature
about when the grain is ripening. 1t
is certainly a bad practice to leave
corn cut and stacked in the field, for
in such condition more ears are ex-
posed to egg deposition than would
be II the corn were stored In the grain
cribs. The moths will not be present
in the granaries during the fall months
II proper precautions have been taken
to get rid Of all infested Grain Of the
previous years growth.

LOOK WELL TO THE HORSES
s. COLLAR

See that; each horses collar Is clean
each morning before putting it on.
Prevention Is worth the proverbial
amount Of cure and consists in care
fully fitted collars.
The use OF pads is largely matter
Of choice. We have made it rule
to use pads only with the smaller and
lighter collars when used in heavy
work. Called shoulders frequently
result from the use Of sweat soaked
pad or one wet in heavy rain.
Careful washing Of the shoulders
with some astringent solution dur
ing the first few days of early spring
work toughtens the skin. lessons the
action Of the sweat glands in that re-
gion and gives many faithful horse
relief from the daily torture Of sore

SUNSHINE NECESSARY FOX

The value Of sunlight for little pigs

and in many cases death results. If

prolonged. The only preventative for
this trouble Is sunshine. When the
weather permits, the pigs should be
out in the sun as much as possible.

arise. Plenty of sunshine in the clear
air is almost an absolute necessity
during the first f,w weeks Of the pigs

THE BALANCED RATION.

An Impression obtains that in
making up the ration of cow corn
Is absolutely Indispensable.
No balanced ration is made up
without corn for a basis. AS matter
Of fact corn Is Of minor Importance
when 1t comes to making up dairy
ration. wo can get along without
corn and get results but there ara
other things we cannot get along with
out and get results and these are
succulence and protein.
succulent foods are those which
contain water. Protein is the most
important element In milk. When
It is remembered that 81 per cent Of
the milk is water. the importance Of
succulent foods ia appreciated. Fat
is also q content Of milk but while
nearly all the protein foods contain
fat making elements the fat pro-
ducing foods usually contain but very
little protein and protein 10 what we
need most 4 we want milk.
In order to get a ration in which the
foods most needed. are well-balanced
we use corn, silage or root and al
falfa in some form or ono OF tho by
products. like bran or oil meal In
pasture we find all the principles that
the COW needs but while we can get
along without succulence and corn.
we cannot get along without protein.
In states. like California. whore corn
is expensive 1t rarely forms part OF
the ration. The fat is usually derived
from one Of the carbonaceus hays or
straws. This is balanced most often
with bran. shorts. middlings and all
falfa In some form. Often alfalfa Is
used for roughage with oats that have
been cut to hay. Again the alfalfa
is used in the shape of meal, with the
wheat by-pr. ducts to balance oats and

THE VALUE OF DAIRYING.

Dairying Is always sure to prove

have been reversed.
The constant growth of the great
Industrial centers has slowly but sure

dairy market. Little by little the SUI

article Of food. Even among physic-
ians. too. this same change Of opinion
has come about. Formerly the doctor
regarded milk as doubtful article Of
diet for his patient. Now he prefers
It to anything else.
The steady increase In the price Of
all dairy products Is the best tribute
to their worth that could possibly be
paid. The world at large is extending
tfem recognition such as It never
did before; voluntarily places a high
er estimate on their value than
formerly.
The dairy farmer ,an ask no more
evidence Of appreciation
than he Is today receiving from the
community at large. In the shape of
advanced prices for the products Of
his care and labor. And It Is we'll

Any man who is willing to conduct

and the future bids fair to see still
