Would Not Look Pleasant.

1t took two attorneys and a doctor
at Erie ali the afternoon one day re-
Gently to take/a photograph of a mule
They wanted Mr.. Mules picture to use
in lawsuit against the Katey rail-
road 1t seems the mule tried to kick
an engine off the track and failed, or
something like that. The owner of the
mule sued for damages and the attor-
neys and doctor thought the best way
to secure judgment was to take
photograph of the mule and its iniu-
ries to exhibit to the Jury So they
went out to the farm with a camera
and the mule was so restless that 1t
took them all the afternoon to get the
picture.

ADVICE iii AN ExPtnl
Valuable Suggestions Given farmers
by Organ Of the State Agr!-
cultural School

The last sheaf of the harvest is
hardly in shock before number of
farmers are anxious to thresh: and
seldom season passes that some
farmer in the community doesn't find
himself in a quandry TO know when
is lie best time to Jhresh.
There are many things that may
be said, both for and against shock
thresliBg and stack-tlreshing: and in
deciding what to do, the farmer must
he guided largely by his particular
case and the conditions to be met.
Shock threshing appeals TO many
farmers from the fact that when it is
over there is nothing to hinder TAX
ing up the general fail work and has
tenins its completion without delay.
Others are favorable to stack-thresh-
ing: but, having had variable success
in getting their grain well stacked in
previous seasons, they are inclined to
favor shock-threshing.
If stock-threshing is really prac-
tical it will be found SO upon either
the large farm, where there is ample
help to carry on the work, or where
three or four farmers can cooperate
and supply the necessary help. No
attempt should be made to start a run
of more than six or eight days of
steady threshing: as this will usually
occupy about two weeks or possibly
longer. A longer run would mean
that the grain of tie last farmer to be
threshed for would be exposed to
more or less rain, and, no matter how
we'll shocked, some damage is bound
to result. With shock-threshing, the
grain must sweat in the bin; and,
where threshing is resumed too soon
after rain, serious damage to its
quality is bound to occur. The most
satisfactory way to apportion the pos
sible damages in shock-threshing
among a group of four or five farms is
to start in and thresh full day OH
each farm, and then complete the
threshing on these farms, taking them
in reverse order. .s H..
Stack-threshing may appeal astFifle
more expensive than shock threshing;
but it has in return several things
which commend it to the small farm
er, or to the farmer who is following
diversified farming Stack-threshed
grain will usually bring premiums of
one to two cents per bushel over the
average of shock-threshed grain, be-
cause of its better color and weight.
The threshing usually takes place af-
ter many of the fall rains are over;
and, as a consequence, the straw is
saved in much better shape, and is
far more useful for feeding.
Experience has shown that the
chances of waste and damage are
more numerous with shock-threShing
than with stack-threshing, and as all
cannot be first in shock-threshing it
is we'll not to forget how to build a
good grain stack.-O. M. Olson, EX-
tension Division, Mimi. College of
