HOTBED MAKING
Where the Fancy Prices Come From

A hotbed should be placed in a we'll

Most hotbeds are heated from below
by fermenting manure in pits. Dig
the pit before ground freezes about
eighteen inches deep or thirty inches

same size as the frame which is put
over it.
While cement and brick are SUBJ
stantial, the frames Of most hotbeds
are made of lumber. Nail well paint

WHAT THE FARMERS son FOUND
When he Went Rack Home.

In the current issue of Farm and Fire
side n J Minhinnck tells how, when he
was a boy, there were in his class in high
school six sons and seven daughters Of
farmers living in the district, which com
prised ten townships. Of the six boys two
became doctors. two lawyers, one min
lister and the other died while attending
the university. OF the girls five became
teachers, one nurse and the seventh
married a merchant In other words not
one of the thirteen returned to the farm.
Two years ago he visited his old home
for the first time in twenty five years and
found that of the twelve farms 1.-TWO of
the pupils were brother and sister, not
a single one remained in The family that
held it thirty years ago. The writer goes
On as follows:
Now comes the more Interesting side
of the story On the twelve farms, which
totaled about 1900 acres, there are now
living fifty. one families, Of which forty
two had moved from The towns and cities;
but nine families had direct farmer
ancestry. Of these nine, eight had
bought their lands, and only one had ac-

compared favorably with the best city
pavements. The fences were of wire,
and all along them were planted beau
tifui maple and walnut trees. The cul-
tivation came right up to the fences, and
the roadsides were as clean as the fields.
Every inch of land was in the highest
possible state of cultivation, and there
were not ten fields of hay or grain visible
in thirty-mie drive. The houses were
simply beautiful, near,y all of stone or

that they were lived IN. The barns were
moved away far enough not to be nui-
sance; in the old days they were nice and
handy to the house and well, which latter
received the drainage from both. Every
house had telephone, electric lights,

them electric washing machines anc

Department of Agriculture, Kansas.
When a limb is cut from a tree the
parent branch or trunk tries to COW

For this reason all limbs and branches
should be cut off quite close to and
parallel with the parent branch. I'm

lnseed oil paint. If this is not done,

How to Prune.
In the first two or three years some
of the most effective pruning for sym
metry and balance may be done with
the thumb and finger removing little
shoots which start from undesirable
points. during May. June and July.
Up until the time of bearing the princi-
pal Object in pruning is the shaping of
the tree. About one-half of the first
years wood is cut back in the spring
following its growth.
Trees are better with little pruning
annually than with an occasional Sc

their trees quite freely each year,
while others who believe in unrestrict-
ed growth do not. Every one recog-

When to Prune.
Heavy pruning tends to produce
wood. Old trees are reiuvenated by
severe cutting back. Weak growing
trees should be pruned more closely
than strong growers. If trees ener-

wood the quality and quantity of fruit
must suffer. Winter pruning stimu-

THE SEPARATOR
saves the Farmer His Greatest Asset.
By c. B. LANE.

By c. B. LANE,
Successful Dairyn,an.
In early days farmers set milk on
kitchen or pantry shelves to raise
cream. After standing twelve to +wen-
ty-four hours the cream was skinned
with tin skimmers and set away in
a cool place. usually the cellar. Less
than one-half to three-fourths Of tho
cream was thus secured. When enough
mad accumulated churning was
made. Later milk was put in ..deep
setting cans kept in we'll or spring
water, and after twelve hours the
cream was skinned, or, in the more
improved cans, the skimmilk was
drawn from the bottom, leaving the
cream in the can. Here again one-third
OF the cream was left in skimmilk
to be fed to pigs. Thirty years ago
the first cream separator was made in
this country. The principal of the sep
arator Is based on specific gravity Of
liquids AS the separator bowl revolves
at about 5000 revolutions per minute
the heavier portion of milk. skim
milk, Is thrown outside by centrifugal
force and discharged, while the lighter
portion, cream, is thrown to the center
OF the bowl and discharged through
separate tubes. The advent Of separa-
tors was great boost for the dairy
business. as 1t separated practically all
cream from milk, preventing waste and
making Impossible to feed sweet skim
milk to stock
Types of separators ON the market
today are legion. 1t is estimated the
sales of separators In the United
States amounts TO 10000 per year.
These range In capacity from 200
pounds of milk per hour in the small
hand separators to 1900 pounds in
the big power machines and cost from
500 to $500. and it may be interesting
to note that the best mechanical skill,

HOPPER FEEDING POULTRY
THE SAFEST

The two principal objects of hopper

On any farm where poultry are kept in
considerable numbers time is money

several days. There are some who OBJ
ject to hoppers. fearing they attract
rats, mice, sparrows. etc, and that
fowls eat less freely of dry mash and
consequently do not lay as well. The
first of these objections is overcome by
using metal hoppers with lids. These
may be purchased from any poultry
supply house. The second oh lection is
true, but the slight loss of eggs is Off
