PRIVATE EXPERIMENT FARMS
Demonstration Work Must Be Brought
Closer to the Farmer.


Farms that are owned and managed
by the state or by any other similar
organization have this difficulty to
contend with, viz, that the average
farmer that is, the man we are trying
to reach, will come and look at it and
admire what has been accomplished,
but will feel in his heart and say to
his neighbor: They couldn't do it
on my farm. My conditions are differ
ent. If they tried it there, it wouldn't
succeed. Furthermore, of course,
those fellows have state appropria-
ton ana a state expert and of course
they can do it, but we can't get those
things and consequently we can not
do it," | have heard that time and
again, and the government expended
pretty near million dollars in extern
sion work before the fact was discov-
cred that a government experiment
farm demonstrated only what the gov
eminent could do, not what the farmer
could do. So new method had to be
adopted, which is well exemplified by
the farmers cooperative demonstra-
ton work of the South. It Is one OF
the most magnificent pieces of agri-
cultural work ever undertaken any
whore and one which has been very
successful, because it recognizes the
principle that the demonstration must
be conducted on the farmers own
farm by the farmer himself under the
direction of an expert. Our expert
ence is that net only the man himself,
but his neighbors learn rapidly from
demonstrations carried out in this way.
That is what we are trying to do In
Minnesota. The State Federation of

Maple Strip and Sugar.
A Possible Byproduct From
Minnesota Farms.

Z
According to the United States cen
sus reports Minnesota produced In
1909 over eleven thousand pounds OF
maple sugar and over seventeen thou
sand gallons of sirup. Many Mime
sofa farms possess woodlots or groves
which might produce maple sugar.
Some of these groves are large
enough to produce sugar for market,
while others can only provide sugar
and strip for home consumption.
Most of the sugar groves in Mime
sofa need improvement. Old diseased
trees should be made into cordwo0d,
competing species of trees that are Of
little value should be removed, young
maple groves Trimmed, or trails cut to
aid in the collection of the sap. All
of these things can best be done in
winter or in early March.
This Is also an excellent time to
overhaul and repair all old equipment
and to order new supplies, such as
buckets and covers, sprouts, cans, evap-
orator and tanks.
In estimating the supplies OF various
sorts that will be required it should be
remembered that an average tree pro

Farm Water Heating
System.

A waterback or front in the stove
or range Is the usual means of heat
Ing the water in a farmhouse system,
or g. water coil can be substituted
and when properly installed will do
good work. The waterfront is pre-
fer. ed in a cook stove because there
it does not affect the oven A heater,
however, shows no signs of injury
after such installment, provided the
coil is properly placed and the cast
ing not broken in drilling holes nee
essarily made for the pipes which
must be connected with the range
boiler. A range boiler is q necessary
part Of such an apparatus, and the
ends of the water coils in the stove
must protrude so that they can be
connected with the range boiler, as
the water storage tank is called.
Range boilers are made of steel, are
galvanized inside and out to prevent
rust, and vary in size from twenty
gallons in capacity to 200 gallons
The size most commonly installed is
about thirty gallons, when intended
for family use. The pipe which con
veys water from the attic tank to the
range boiler, if of iron, should be gal
Vanized in the same manner as the
tank, and for the same reasons. The
cost Of installation is about all that
need be considered in case soft water
is used, because when properly cared
for such system deteriorates very
slowly. When hard water is used,
plumbers bills are usually frequent,
because hard water always forms in
crustations or scales, or both, and
these must be removed to secure
good service and prevent accidents,
for the pipes become filed and the
waterback or coil IS liable to burst if
cleaning is delayed too long. Soft
water gives no such trouble, and no
one need fear to install a system of
this kind, because of stories he has
heard regarding disasters. The city
housewife carries greater responsible
fly, because the supply comes from the
city main and the safety devices are
different and more liable to need at
tention than with an attic tank. When
an attic tank system is properly in
stalled there is practically no danger
except from incrustations and freez-
ing, and the use of soft water reduces
1t to one-freezing. When pipes are
frozen, fire should never be made
before thawing them. whether they
be the ones leading into the stove or
the tank. There is no room for de
tails, but the waterback will burst if
heat is applied when pipes are
stopped; hence, thaw before building
q fire.
Precautions necessary are to have
pipes well covered with insulating
material, and avoid having the fire go
out in cold weather. In case the
house is left for few days in winter
the water should be shut off from the
attic tank to the range boiler, and the

ton OF the President with no sug-
gestion Of party division. How
ever, since the failure OF the Lind
mission, the old time statesmen
who believe in the old time plan Of
physical force have again emerged
from cover and are expressing
themselves strongly. President
Wilson in his appearance before

than have been noticed since the
days when Colonel Roosevelt
pulled off his spectacular perform.
ances. While there is plenty of
difference in opinion as to the
value Of the peace policy, still its
most severe critics hope for its
success.
Confabs and discussions about
re.uniting the Republican party,
have been revived, only to receive
the emphatic disapproval Of Col
onel Roosevelt and his fellow Pro.
gressives, who emphatically de-
clare that they will not play. In
congress the different Republican
elements are going along very
smoothly, but the Progressives are
maintaining their own organization
and carrying out their own policies,
and if the statements of leaders in
the capital are to be taken as indi-
eating conditions then the wedding
OF the political parties is long
way off.
