FATAL DISEASE OF

for the owner upon visiting the field
in the morning to find one or more fat
cattle dead which on the previous
evening were apparently in excellent
health.
Another popularity of the disease
Is that losses may occur on one farm
or in one field while cattle on an ad.
Joining farm or in an adjacent field
may be free from the affection.
Various investigators in the past
have attempted to discover some germ
or organism or some toxic substance
which might be determined as the
cause Of this condition, but thus far
the cause Of the disease has not been
established.
As death Of stock from this affec-
tion is generally sudden and there is
little opportunity for treatment, ami
mails should not be turned into field
with standing stalks.
As a matter of fact the disease may
be actually prevented by cutting the
stalks early and only feeding them
after they have been carefully cured
and removed from the field. Losses

ture Of the business.
Ever since two story houses were
first built stairs have occupied promi-
nent positions, usually in front In full
view Of the street door where floor
space Is more valuable than In any
other part Of the house. The front
stair not only takes up valuable space
on both floors but it often spoils the
living room or parlor down stairs and
curtails two Of the best bedrooms up
stairs.
Now, the stairway In this plan
solves the problem in new way. 1t
not only fills new felt want. but It
fills the neighbors with envy and the
contractor with malice. because the
workmanship must be 80 exact to
please the owner that he can never
get out OF 1t with a profit
However this stairway seems to
overcome many difficulties. 1t occu-
pies the least valuable corner in the
house, which is right because nobody
stays in the stairway any longer than
he can help. You sit in dining room
long enough to enjoy good meal, you
lounge in the living room until neces-
sity drives you to work or sleepiness
drives you to bed, and you stay in a

time before planting. Broom corn Is
a good sod crop.
Broomcorn plants are very tender
and make the most rapid growth in
warm weather. They will not stand
the cold of early spring like corn. The
seed will rot before terminating. or II
the plant terminates the growth will
be retarded by continued cold
When large areas are planted the
most convenient way is to divide the
field into sections Of about ten acres
each and plant at intervals of about a
week. The crop demands prompt at
tention. and II this system of planting
is followed there is not SO much dan
ger of damage to the brush from rain.
or becoming too ripe.
In case farm hands are scarce the
scarcity is not SO keenly felt. for there
is not a very large crop that demands
attention within a period of a few
days. A few hands can take care Of
comparatively large fields and 1t is
much more convenient than to plant
the whole field on a single date.
The method of planting is about the
same as for Kaffir corn. Plant in rows
about three feet apart. and four to five
inches apart in the row. The Stand
ard, due to its large growth, is planted
In rows about three and a half feet
apart.

The principal crops OF broomcorn
are raised in Kansas, Oklahoma and
southern Illinois, although this crop
will grow in other sections Of the
country where soil and climatic condi
tions are favorable.
1t is profitable crop as the price
per ton for the brush usually ranges
5000 for the lower grades that are
damaged by weather. and up to $3.50
and over for the very best.
In the southwest it Is becoming
more important as a foliage crop and
It is used to considerable extent after
the brush has been removed. The
seed has small feeding value.
The two best types Of broomcorn
grown In the southwest particularly is
the Dwarf and the Standard. The
Dwarf is much liked because 1t grows
only from four to six inches high with
brush of from ~ to 20 inches long,
however. this type is better suited to
the semi-arid regions and to the up
lands Of the broomcorn section in the
southwest. The Dwarf is used great
deal In southern Illinois and other
middle states where 1t is grown in
small quantities.
The soil should be plowed in the fall
or early In the winter SO that 1t will
retain as much moisture as possible.
About two weeks before planting the
land should be disked and narrowed.

PREPARE MANURE
FOR VEGETABLES
Fertilizer Should Be Hauled Out
and Built Up in Compact
Heaps in Field.

Manure for spring grains and early
vegetables must be hauled and built
up In heaps. consisting Of alternate
layers OF horse manure, cattle manure
and manure from the hog pens; cover
each layer Of manure with rich earth;
make the heap about eight or ten feet
in width, sixfeet in height and as long
as wanted. The drainage from the
pile should be pumped over it from
time to time. The urine will start
fermentation and by spring the entire
mass will become well rotted and in
fine condition for spreading in the
drills for early vegetables or for broad.
casting for small grain.
This is the method followed by mar
ket gardeners and truckers: A
large part of the manure for the truck
farms comes from the city. This ma
nure is hauled during the winter and
composted with leaf mold, dried
muck, earth from the head lands and
other vegetable matter. Land plaster
is spread over each layer of manure
to hold the ammonia. The richness
of the manure may be increased by
spreading rs pounds of finely ground
animal bone meal over each load Of
manure as it Is piled. The bone meal
acts quicker when rotted.
A number of truckers use fine
ground Florida rock to mix with the
manure: the two together is said to
give a compost at low cost and Of
special value to spread In the rows
for peas. beans and early corn.
Manure from granted horses should
be composted between layers OF cat
tie or hog manure, heavily plastered,
and top and sides Of heap covered
with six inches of earth to prevent
loss of ammonia. II thrown In a
large heap without being composted
with cattle manuare 1t will flre-fang
