best known of Arizona ) pioneer
settlers, and one who was cor
daily welcomed in the homes Of
many of our best families. is no
more. At the stroke of twelve
bells on Thursday night of last
week he passed from our midst.
A wall of anguish went up from
thousands of his friends over the
state when the news Of his
demise was circulated. AS the
Old Year faded into the irrevo-
cable past his remains were gent
ly lowered into oblivion. 1t was
a sad and solemn occasion.
John (pardon the familiarity
had a long line of ancestors and
his living relatives are too num-
erous to mention Virginia Dare
a young and beautiful cousin Of
the deceased, was among those
presentat the time Of the death.
Old Taylor of Green River and
DR.. Jordon of Sunny Brook, two
of the best known specialists il
the country, were in constant. ar
tendance at the bedside.
John first showed signs Of II

ago, and from that time unciI / is
death but little hope was enter
tained of his recovery. For sgv-
eral years he had suffered from
slight attacks of Localoptionitis.
Early last summer his case was
complicated by a severe attack
Of lnitiativedox, which, assisted
oy touch Of Ballotitis on Nov

death.
John Adams, a life lohg frier d
of the deceased and one who
orofited greatly through close
business association with the
late lamented, will erect a monu-
ment to his memory.

Thursday night on the stroke of

CROSS-BREEDING SWINE

Constructing consists of mating
pure-bred animals of different breeds.
In some cases this has proved a sue
cess the offspring being rapid and
teconomc pork producers. There are
several objections to this practice.
Cross breeding cannot be successfully
carried on beond the first generation
and the breeder has no chance for Sc
lection to improve his herd. He cannot
raise any of his own breeding animals
and has to buy an entirely new herd
every few years Again, because of
the prices demanded for first-class
stock, such a breeder will not get as
high grade animals as he might have
could he select tops from his own
breeding. As a rule, breeding is
not as successful or as satisfactory as

PRODUCTION OF HONEY

Every farmer should raise bees This
is the conclusion of George A. Dean
Professor Entomology in the Kansas
State Agricultural College
Bees, according to Professor Dean,
are easier to care for than chickens
and yield much better returns on the
investment. Children in their teens
can care for bees and will enjoy doing
it. From eight to fifteen colonies are
the right number for the average
farmer, ten being usually preferable to
a large number and still fewer being
desirable to start with For the ordi-
nary farmer bees should be regarded
as a necessary side line, just as are
chickens or fruit.
The equipment cost for five colonies
of bees about $50. There are now,
at a conservative estimate, 100000
colonies of bees on 10000 Kansas
farms. The sale value of these bees
would be approximately Sl0O0,0OO,
while the annual yield of honey has a
valueof the same amount.
The highest record among the
States of the Union in honey produc
ton is made in California.
The largest apiaries in Kansas are
in the alfalfa region, as alfalfa offers
one of the best honey making mater
ais. Alsike is also valuable, as is
sweet clover, which may be grown to
advantage western Kansas. To fruit
growing bees are practically essential
because of the aid they give in ppol-
lination. This is the case particularly
with the apple.

A TRANSFORMING HINT

Market gardeners who have occa-
sion to transplant many seedlings OF
lettuce or beets to the open field, es-
pecially when irrigation is not avail
able, sometimes experience consider
able loss from drying of the young
plants, says American Agrculturist.
One cause of this may be assigned to
weak plants with soft leaves and few
roots. Anoter frequent cause accord
ing to observers from the New Jer
sey station, is the failure to reduce
the leaf surface before setting in the
field.
Almost always when plants are pull
ed from the seed bed many roots are
lost and to balance up the water sup
ply and demand in the plant parts of
the top should also be removed, In
many cases these tips or even the
whole leaves would dry up anyway,
and the grower may as well keep the
water they would have drawn from
the for the use of stem and new
leaves

RHODE ISLAND
WHITE is A
PROMISIMC RREED


The laying qualities of the Rhode
Island White are bound to make it
one OF the most popular breeds, says
Mrs. Will Taylor of 400l York avenue,
Sacramento. This laying quality and
the active nature of the fowl are prob
ably due to the Leghorn blood in the
breed They are therefore an especi-
ally good fowl for the farmer as well
as fanciers
The Whites have proven equally as
good as the Reds, says Mrs. Taylor,
and in some respects are superior.
Their white plumage makes them a
more acceptable fowl for the beginner,
eliminating the perplexing problems
of color breeding which so many are
unable to master The percentage of
off-color and Gull chicks is conse-
quently much smaller
Rhode Island White chicks seem to
possess more vitality than the Reds.
They are larger when Matched and
do not require as much watchful care
during the early brooding period.
During the month of April from
one pen of six hens and a cockerel
the eggs laid whe sold for Matching
purposes brought about $3.50. The
demand for them steady and great
er than any California breeder can
supply at the present time.-Sacra

PREPARE
THE GROUND FOR
AN ASPARAGUS BED

Long ago | satisfied myself that the
common practice of transplanting as
paragus roots is not only more expen-
sive, but it takes longer to get crop
than where the seeds are sown i'll per
manent position, writes w +. Massen
in the Rural New Yorker. Eve years
ago | made an experiment to show the
difference between transplantcd roots
and those left undisturbed. | sowed
row in the manner | shall describe and
grew the plants one year. They were
then thinned out and the Trimmings
transplanted to other rows. The undis-
turbed roots gave me fine asparagus
the second year, while the transplant
ed roots did not give any till the third
season, and today the shoots on the
undisturbed roots are stronger than
those on the transplanted. ones.
In preparing bed | dig trenches
foot wide and fifteen inches deep as
early in spring as the ground can be
worked. These are filled half full OF
fine rotted manure packed down. "A
light cover of soil is added and the
seed sown thinly in the row, the
trenches being four feet apart. AS
soon as the seedlings are few inches
high they are thinned two feet apart
and the soil is worked to them as they
grow till leyel.
During the spring and summer two
applications of nitrate of soda are APP
pied alongside the rows, care being
taken that it does not touch the plants.
This is done at the rate of $50 pounds
an acre, and the cultivation is clean till
fall The whole bed then is given a
heavy application OF KANT and covered
with stable manure for the winter.
The next summer the process is re-
peated, and the following spring cut
ting can begin But the annual feed
ing should be kept up, for heavy feed
ing is the way to make fat shoots.

HOW TO LOAD A WAGON

In loading wagon place the load
evenly over the front and hind wheels,
If any difference is made it should be
on the hind wheels. They are larger
and hence do not sink in as deep as
the smaller front wheels, The fact
that the load is farther from the team
does not increase the draft on the
wagon. When the team is hitched to
something dragging on the ground
then the nearer the team is to the
load the lighter the pull. This is due
to the fact that the nearer the team is
the mole the pull will be upward, thus
helping to reduce the friction between
the load and the ground.

PATIENCE NEEDED
IN CARING FOR THE
DISOWNED LAMB

The shepherd has his patience most
sorely tried with the eve that stub
bornly refuses to assume the proper
maternal relations toward her OH
spring, and the man not well equipped
with Jobs crownng virtue is not like
" to become successful shepherd,
writes f. p Snyder in the National
Stockman. Usually if the eve that re-
fuses to own her lamb is kept in
small pen with her lamb and made to
stand and let it suck she will after 4
few DAYS own it all right.
| have sometimes induced the eve
to stand by the use of sharp switch
on her nose After a few days shaking
the switch at her was sufficient and
finally my appearance would make her
tolerate the lamb, and all the time the
lamb was growing bigger and strong
er till he could help himself in spite
of her 1t is we'll to keep them con-
fined together till one is sure the eve
has given up, and after they are turn
ed out with the flock it is well to watch
her. for she may have lapse OF ma
ternal affection.
In aggravated cases | have some
times had to keep eve confined for
two weeks before she would give up.
| once had one tied out on the grass
for three weeks before she gave up. If
the eve has plenty of milk one can
almost invariably succeed, and it it
wonderful what display of motherly
affection they can give when they
once make up their minds to. The
most hopeless case is where eve
refuses to own one of pair of twins.

MILK STIMULATES
THE GROWTH
OF YOUNG CHICKS

1t has been conclusively shown in
experiments of the Storrs Station that
milk feeding stimulated growth and
caused a great reduction in deaths
from general causes. Chicks which
received milk were not only larger
than those that did not, but they APP
peared in every way to be stronger
and more vigorous.
Experiments in which the milk was
soured artiicially and naturally gave
practically the same results A slight
difference favored the naturally sour
ed milk.
Results showed that the feeding of
either sweet or sour milk was fol-
lowed in every instance by marked
increase in the weights of the chicks
as compared with those which re-
ceived no milk. This was true of both
the infected and unaffected groups
This Offence in weight between the
chicks fed on milk and those receiv-
ing none amounted in some cases to
over eighty per cent. The milk served
the important function of bringing
about a more complete utilization Of
the food
The conclusion was reached that in
the case of early Matched chicks which
are brooded wholly or for the most
part indoors it is necessary to exercise
caution in feeding milk or else the
chicks may be grown off their feet
When milk is supplied freely to chicks
it becomes all the more important
that they have abundant exercise.
In all the milk-feeding experiments
at this station covering a period OF
several years no evidence has been
obtained that milk was in the least in
furious, no matter how young the
chicks or how sour the milk. Every
precaution was taken to prevent feed
ing milk that was musty or moldy.
No milk should be fed that is filthy
or that has been held too long. The
receptacles should be cleaned and
scalded frequently in order that the
resunlts may be obtained.

INVESTIGATION OF CROPS

Diversihcation of crops has been

importance in northern States has
been overlooked Farm surveys show,
however, that the farms in the north
Welding the highest net proht are
those that have variety of of sources
OF cash income In profitable sec
ton of central New York we find that
most farmers produce hay, potatoes,
cabbage, beans, fruit and some live
stock for sale This winter potatoes,
fruit and cabbage have all been low in
price, but because of their variety OF
products these farmers have been in
sured against total failure. The COM
ing year or two is certain TO be a
period of fluctuating prices. Every
thing points at present to high prices
for such staples as wheat, pork and
beef, but there is no assurance that
there will an substantial Improvement
in the prices of potatoes, vegetables or
fruit. Therefore, it will be only an
expression of foresightedness for the
farmer to throw out a little anchor
to windward in the form of few
acres of staple that has good local
demand
Epecalties are good thing i'll the

FERTILIZING FRUIT TREES

In some foreign experiments the
use of stable manure is advocated
when the tree is first planted and the
subsequent application of commercial
fertilizers from year to year in series
of holes distributed around the tree
about on a line with the circumfer-
ence of the crown The depth of the
holes is to be increased as the tree be-
comes older and the fertilizer is to be
we'll mixed with soil or other material
to prevent burning of the roots 1t
is desirable to determine the depth OF
the feeding roots for various trees in
different soils in order to fix the Opt
mum depth of the hoies.-American

CALIFORNIA HOG SERUM

The lives of fifty thousand swine
were saved in California during the
past year directly by the work of the
University of California in preparing
and distributing serum and virus to
prevent hog cholera. Moreover, the
lives of scores of other California hogs
were saved because the spread of in
lection was choked and because OF the
campaign for disinfection and quaran-
tine and better methods of fighting
the spread of the disease which fol-
lowed the Inauguration of this import
ant work.
Nine times out of ten, declares the
Agricultural Experiment Station,
when a hog dies in California from
disease it dies from hog cholera. I'm
fortunately many swine raisers are
loath to believe that it is cholera
which affects their hogs, and by the
time they are convinced most of the
hogs have become infected. The Uni
versity urges hog-raisers to remem-
Der this fact, that nire-tenths of the
deaths of swine from disease are due
to hog cholrea, and that no well de-
veloped case of cholera can be cured
by incubation but that it is necessary
to noculate before the disease is well
developed Consequently, when chol-
era breaks out in herd immediate
action is necessary if the we'll hogs
are to be saved
