AnoIsvvorms and Rain.

Just why the angleworm comes out
Of the ground after a soaking rain
when its natural tendency Is to seek
the deep, moist part Of the earth In
times OF drought was long a puzzle to
the naturalists. The enthusiastic fsh-
erman will tell you that the only way
to find any fishing worms when the
soil Is very dry is by digging down to
where It is damp or by sprinkling the
ground thoroughly the night before
YOU intend to dig. 1t Is evident that
the Lumbrcidae like water. The 9TH
er recently discovered fact about them
Is that they also like air and cannot
live without II When 1t has rained
until the earth is thoroughly saturated

strsnoth Of Past Mistakes.

Because our ancestors lived In hud-
died cities We go on building upon mar
row and tortuous streets, sinking our
capital in mistakes which age makes 1t
more and more difficult to retrieve.
The original cowpaths Of Boston have
become picturesque slums which sup
port innocent ladies and stihe the
health and the happiness Of other peo-
pies children. Attack these siums'
and you attack helplessness itself. Try
to widen and ventilate, and you Will
find that you have struck at the secu-
rity Of the innocent. This Is the real
strength Of the past and the over
whelming grip 1t has upon our lives.
1t lives on, not because intelligence can
defend II, but because 1t has become %
intimate n part Of us that to cut II out
seems little too cruel.-New Republic.

Sees Profit In Dollar Apples.

s. Il. Beale, who is one of the largest
apple growers in central Maine and one
of the six largest in Maine, makes the
assertion that apples selling at 81 bar
rel are profitable for any farmer to raise.
He has about 1000 trees and last year
when apples were selling at a very low
rate he found a market, realizing 50 per
barrel. Mr.. Beale has been big or
chardist for 80 years and says 1t pays the
best of anything farmer can have. In
the poorest year it brings q profit. Al
ter tree is 10 years old it Is equal every
year to 500 at interest. His trees are
divided among Baldwins, Ben Davis and
Spys, but his latest variety is the Stark,
which he considers the best for this eli.
mate.
Cultivation is the most essential thing
about orcharding. 1t should be done
every year, and after it begins bearing a
cover crop should be planted each year
He considers an orchard good for so to
Is years after 1t begins bearing. Some
of Mr.. Beale's trees are Is years old and
last year yielded three barrels to the
tree and are thrifty. Some Of his treel
Weld seven barrels each. At the age oil
10 to Is years the yield should be from
three to FIVE barrels. Mr.. Beale ships
his apples to LiverpoOl.--John E. Taylor

The Farmers Lot.

In conversation recently with we'll
to-do farmer he complained to US mildly
regarding his lot. "NIy wife and l." he
said, shave been thinking Of selling our
farm and going to some section where
land is cheaper and buy farm or quit
farming as we find that we must work
hard early and late to make interest on
our investment and reasonable profit or
labor income"
We said to him, "you came to your
present farm with very little capital,
didn't you?"
Yes" he replied, 1--WE had but little
when We began farming and We now own
our place and good herd of cattle. We
live well and can afford about all the
things we desire. But our work is con-
fining. We must be on hand every day
in the year and good help is often hard
to get"
"Did you ever stop to consider" we
queried, "that any man who is success
full and accumulates something for a
rainy day or old age must apply himself
closely to his work? The man in the
office, store, or shop may not be confined
to his job as many hours day as the
farmer, but when you consider the
things he must do around his home and
in various other ways, the successful
man in the city works as many hours per
day as the successful farmer. II you
will look about you and note the income
of those you know in the city, how many
of them have done as we'll as you have?
How many of them own their homes and
have them paid for? How many could
retire at your age? How many Of them
hold jobs or do work that you would
prefer to yours?"
"Well," he said 81 hadn't thought of
IL in that light or angle before"
He could think of few who, perhaps,
were doing better, but the many were
not as fortunate as this farmer. We
have often thought if every farmer could
fully understand the struggle of the city
folk and know their life as they know il,
their work as they fiud it, that the farmer
would be more contented and satisfied
with his lot. The grass looks greener
aud more inviting on the other side of
the fence and the other fellows lot is
likely to appear easier and more satisfy
ing than ours. The trouble is, we do
not know the other fellows job, his
struggles, and disapp0intments.
We should remember that happiness
cannot be created by money or position,
nor can it be found by looking for it. If
you think it can, look about and see if
people of wealth and good positions are
all happy and IL those who have sought
happiness through life of ease have
found 1t. True happiness comes only
through doing useful work, rendering a
useful service, and by the possession of
useful knowledge. The farmer who does
not understand and appreciate the won
ders of nature or take any interest in his
farm work, except the dollars which he
can gather, will find little happiness.
His lot is drudgery. But the farmer OF
knowledge and understanding gets en-
joyment out Of making plants grow; out
of seeing animals develop; out of the
birds of the field; out of the rising sun
to it's restful glow of evening; and out OF
the stars as they come forth in their
nightly sparkle. The lot of such q
farmer is happiness. Dairyman

| seed.
1t is necessary to test new varieties at
least two years because of variation be-
tween seasons and because they may
have been kept under different storage
conditions. The seed selection can be
begun with all the first year and all but
the best variety discarded. Any score
card of points may be used in the selec
ton of type, variety or strain according
to the wishes of the grower. With most
of us net profit 10 the thing to be most
considered. This may be produced in
different ways. For early markets e1-
treme earliness pays better than high
yield on account of high prices. Quality
and white color are also less important
than with the late main crop varieties.
Freedom from disease must always be
considered unless, like scab, it can be
prevented by disinfectiou. High yield,
good appearance and table quality are
almost always the largest factors in Sc
curing the greatest net proft.
COMPARING POTATO SEED.
never saved any poor bills to test till
1912. That year the low yielders' row
averaged only 10 bushels an acre against
$50 for the adjoining rows treated exact
ly the same. In 1918, the low yielders
averaged $50 against 200 for the normal.
This was not a fair test, as the low
yielders were mature when a frost on
September IA killed the others while in
full growth. In 1915, the yields were "A
and 334 bushels an acre. dig about one
acre out of II each fall with hooks,
either before the rest are ripe enough to
dig with digger or on days too wet to
use a machine. Each bill is kept sepa-
rate. Next go over the row myself and
select 5 to 90 per cent of the best hills.
This is the hardest part and requires the
best judgment. These selected hills are
planted the next year in q seed plot on
the best part of the field. Early in the
fall and before the tops on the healthy
vines die hook should be used to re-
move all weak, early dying or diseased
hills. This year found only four
bushels of such on five acres yielding
1910 bushels. Small tubers from such a
plot are as good as large, but there are
not very many.
Seed selection cannot prevent loss of
vigor, but it can quickly eliminate the
damaged strains unless the injury is so
severe that all are affected. Authorities
are not agreed as to whether the yield of
a particular strain can be increased by
selecting the best hills. As a
farmer | am we'll satisf ed that this can
be done with profit. The cost is so
small that every hour spent is well pail.
