Whore starIings Bring Ruin.
In Quiet Days In Spain," the au-
thor, @. B. Huffman, describes the raw

voted to raising muscatel raisins near
Malaga:
Dogs and goats are very fond Of
grapes and are only kept OF them by
rural guards, but the greatest enemy
Of all Is the startling. This bird flies
over from Africa In such millions as
literally to darken the earth. When-
ver they camp for the night they
leave a desert. Every particle Of fruit,
leaf, tender shoot and piece Of soft
bark vanishes. As the saying Is.
Many crops spell various fortunes; one
crop Of starlings spells ruin The
blowing Of a southern wind and the
sound Of wings In the air produces
panic, mems faces blanch with terror.
In despair. bells are rung, guns fred.

WHY The SILO?
BY Professor W. c. Palmer,
; North Dat<usa Agricultural
College.


Why should agfarmer have a silo?
II is the cheapestbnilding that can be
put up on the farm, when the amount
of food that can be stored in it ia
considered. The ssnsilage is in a most
convenient form to- feed and is always
ready, winter or $summer. In fact II
Is the same as pasture for the dairy
cows, so the sffo virtually makes II
possible to have pasture the year
round.
Corn produces more per ncre thar
any other crop. sit Is, however, diff
cult to handle. IF ii, is put up into @
large stack 1t contains so much mois'
ture that. 1t will mold and again the
stock viii waste considerable Of it, d
fed as fodder. after it has gone
through the silo lrthere is practically
no waste. The fermentation softenf
up the stalks somewhat and being clfi
up into short pieces and being sue
cuient they seem ito be about as palat
able as tho leaves. So that about the
only way that the .tfull food value cd
the corn plant nsSe utilized is to pat
1t into the silo. Leaving the corr In
the shocks I'm the field until it is need
ed is a very disagreeab.e way Of hand
ling it SO that this IDS practically out
of the question.

TREATING SEED.
Grain Should Be Moistened In solu-
tlon of FormaIdehyde.

ttop VI SftHhoiNSiyoS"
Before grain is sown 1t should be
treated in order to ward off certain
diseases. Wheat is treated for stink
ing smut, barley and oats for loose
smut and fax for the disease known
A. fax wilt. For the purpose of treat
ment a solution OF formaldehyde Is
generally made up consisting OF one
pound OF 40 per cent formaldehyde to
forty-fve gallons of water. Any de-
vice for treating may be used provided
with the solution. Some prefer dip
ping and others prefer sprinkling and
~shoveiing. Efficient machines are on
the market for the treatment OF grain.
In treating fax some care needs to be
exercised to prevent 1t from caking as
It n apt to do when too wet. Besides
largely preventing the disease above
mentioned, treatment of grain hastens
termination which is Of much value
In dry climates. In ordinary season,
treated grain outyields the untreated
grain.
The proper depth for sowing wheat
IL probably about two inches. At
Fargo a depth of two inches gave the
best yield. At Indian Head, Assini-
boia, with a rainfall much like that of
Western North Dakota, wheat seeded
two inches deep, in a series of eight
years, yielded two bushels more than
that seeded three inches deep. Oats
and barley may be seeded somewhat
deeper than wheat, although in many
instances in dry climates, these grains
sown two inches deep yielded as much
rs when more deeply sown. Grain
should be seeded more deeply on light
81 than on heavier soil. When the
season is dry. grain may be sown as
deeply as four ihches II such sowing
Is necessary to get the grain into
moist earth.-Superintendent L. r.
Waldron.
