tules and the old diseased stalks that
are left over in the field or elsewhere

easily blown about by the wind and
alights on the growing corn plants

reproduces the disease.
With this life history in mind the
only remedy that Is known suggests

summer before they ripen and burst;
and be entirely destroyed in some way.

peas, soy beans, sand vetch, serradel-
la. and yellow lupine. One of the es-
sentials to the growth of any legume
Is that 1t should be inoculated with
organisms which form root nodules
and permit the collection of nitrogen
from the soil air. Artificial inocula-
tlon was not resorted to on this part
of the field and it was two or three
years before all of the plots became
inoculated with proper organisms.
Moreover, the growth Of some le-
gumes requires that the soil shall not
be acid. A study Is therefore being
made to determine the effect of acidity
on the different legumes. 1t now ap-
pears that at least yellow lupine and
serradella can be grown without neu-
Trailing the acidity. The yields Of
these two crops have increased from
year to year and are excellent this sea-
son. One would scarcely have thought
1t possible four years ago that the
yield could be increased to such a
marked degree. These crops will now
be turned under for green manuring;
corn and potatoes will be grown next
season.
While We have much yet to learn re-
garding the details Of the methods OF
getting the best growth Of these crops,
1t is already evident that. during sea-
sons of sufficient rainfall. heavy crops
Of serradella and yellow lupine can
be grown on extremely poor, sandy
soils without the use Of lime, and with
very moderate application Of a min
eral fertilizer. incubation with soil
from field where these crops have
grown increases the yield at once And
1t is practically certain that very good
crops of corn and potatoes will result
the year following such treatment.

BY PROF. A. r. WHlTSON,
Wisconsin College Of Agriculture.


One of the problems which Wiscon-
sin agriculture still has to solve Is that
OF the use of the large area Of its very
sandy soils. 1t is estimated that
lion acres Of poor sandy soils in the
state on which agriculture Is not now
profitable. These soils are extremely
low in water-holding power and would
require a shower of about quarter
to half inch every three or four days
to keep the crops supplied with the
best moisture conditions. Moreover,
they are very low in their content of
the essential elements for plant
growth. Indeed, the poorest sandy
soils can scarcely be called soil at all
and the question is-whether a soil
can be developed which will make
their cultivation profitable Such lands
are still lying idle In large areas in
Holland and northern Germany near
very densely populated sections.
The soils department has carried on
experiments during the past six years
on representative field of this class
This field had been cropped for 30
years before 1t was selected for this
study, without any fertilizer whatever
and, as might be expected, the yields
We're extremely small. The yield of
timothy (the last crop grown was so
small that the entire crop from six
acres was taken off in one small load.
Experiments have included tests of
different fertilizers and especially the
growing of legumes fer collecting
nitrogen and organic matter. AS Is
well known, legumes gather their
nitrogen from the atmosphere and so
can grow on soil having none Of this
element II it is supplied with the other
necessary elements. A comparative
test is being made of number OF le-

WESTERN CANADA'S
PROSPERITY
NOT A BOOM, BUT DUE TO NAT
URAL DEVELOPMENT.

One Of the largest banks In Holland
has been doing a big business in
Western Canada, and Mr.. w. Wester-
man, the President, on a recent visit
into the Provinces of Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta, expressed
himself as being much impressed with
present conditions and prospects, and
was convinced that the great pros
perity of the Dominion was not a
boom. but merely the outcome of nat
ural developments.
Not only has money been invested
largely In Western Canada by the
Holland Banks. but by those of Ger
many. France, as well as Great Brit
ain. Not only are these countries con-
tributing money, but they are also
contributing people, hard headed. in
dustrious farmers, who are helping to
produce the two hundred million BUSH
els of wheat and the three hundred
million bushels of the other small
grains that the Provinces of the
West have harvested this season.

Madison. Close votes on governor
such as characterized the recent cleo
ton, are not new in Wisconsin.
In 1855 Coles Bashford OF Osh-
kosh was the republican candidate
and William A. Barstow the demo-
cratic candidate for reelection. IL
required months to decide who was
elected. At one time it seemed set
tied that Bashford had, but few
days later came returns from near
eau Claire which put Barstow few
hundred votes in the lead. These
returns looked suspicious to the re-
publicans and they investigated and
found that they were fraudulent
that there We're not a quarter as
many people in the district as had
been shown by the democratic re-
turns. But Barstow was seated, and
the case went to the supreme court
and he was ousted.
In 1857 Alexander w. Randall.
Waukesha, was the republican can
didate and James b. Cross, Milwau-
kee, the democratic candidate, Both
were supposed to be elected. There
was uncertainty until the official can
vass was made and Randall declared
tho winner by about 700.
In 1859 Randall was renominated
and Harrison G. Hobart was the dem
ocratic candidate. Randall won by
only few thousands.
In 1866 Gen. l.. Fairchild. repub-
lican. and Gen. II. c. Hobart made
the run. 1t took a week to settle
the election. Fairchild won by about
5000, and In ais three elections his
plurality did not exceed 10000 C..
G. Washburn. who succeeded Fair
child. had small majority.
In 1876 1t was several days be-
fore it was known who was elected
Taylor, democrat. who was up for
reelection, or Harrison Ludington, a
former mayor of Milwaukee. The
latter had less than 1000 the lead.
In 1892, when Gov. G.. W. Peck,
democrat, and Col. John G. Spooner
made the race, Spooner was suppos-
ed to be elected for a time, but Gov.
Peck pulled through with 1000. Mai.
