CORN MUST BE OUT AT THE PROPER STAGE
OF MATURITY.
The increase from the silking to the
full milk stage, covering a period Of
twelve days, is eight-tenths Of a ton.
From the milk to the glazing stage, a
period Of only sixteen days, the in
crease in dry matter is from % to $50
tons per acre. At the glazing stage the
dry matter per acre Is four and one
half times as great as it is at tasseling.
This shows the great advantage of let
ting the corn stand until the kernels
are glazed. After this period the In
crease in dry matter is but slight.
To have the silage keep well the CORE
must be cut at the proper stage of ma
turity. If cut before the glazing stage
too much acid develops. If too ripe,
unless water is added, it does not settle
properly and the air which is included
will u it to spoil. In case a part Of
the crop gets too ripe or has been FROST
ed it may be cut into at the bottom Of
silo. If the greener corn is cut on top
the moisture from it and it's greater
weight will tend to- ure the lower lay
ers into good silage.
The most nutritious silage is made
from corn cut at the glazing stage,
with the ears on. The ears are just as
valuable cut in with the stalks as. they
are pulled off and fed as cornmeal or
whole corn The labor Of removing
the ears and feeding them separately
is not justified by any increase in
milk flow. In fact, Director Hills Of
the Vermont station believes that the.
ears ensiloed will give better results
than where they are fed as corn and
cob meal in conjunction with sflage
made from the stalks alone.
Since ears add so much to the. valve
Of silage, their production should be
planted at the same rate as corn for
grain in order that ears may be pro-
duced and that the most nutritious
feeding material may be obtained.
Silage from corn without ears will fill
an animal up, but it will not produce
as much milk as silage with the ears
in it. Such silage also makes neces-
sary the purchase Of more concen-
trates in order to secure a balanced
ration, and n Of the most practical
purchase Of so much grain feed Is by
the production Of more nutritious
silage.

MARKET GARDENING.

Thin the parsley plants to- stand six
to eight inches apart. Use the outside
leaves as desired during the summer.
Next fall, about Nov. 1, dig a few
plants and pot them or set In commo-
dious boxes, which may be kept in a
sunny window Of the kitchen or living
room. With careful watching the plants
will thrive in the house and produce.
leaves all winter for lavoring and gar
nishing various kinds of dishes. WeN
grown plants, too, are fully as beautf-
full as many common house plants.
Muck soils are deficient in potash
and also lack sufficient phosphoric acid
to produce the best results with truck
crops. They may also need available
nitrogen. 1t is desirable to use on
these soils a complete fertilizer which
contains 2 to 4 per cent Of nitrogen, 6
per cent phosphoFic acid and Z per cent
Of potash. Larger percentages of the
mineral elements would likely be prof

Hog Cholera Diagnosis.


The Importance Of a correct diagno-

not be overestimated, says DR.. b. Pres.
ton Hoskins Of the Minnesota expert

ministered to a herd thought to be in
fected with cholera, but in reality suf'
fering from some other disease, usual
~ means time and effort wasted and,
If the treated hogs keep on dying, dis

CELERY FOR FALL AND WINTER

The Soil Should Be Made tho Richest
Spot In the Garden.
Make the soil for your celery patch
the richest spot in the garden, says the
Country Gentleman. The more rapid
and luxuriant the growth the better
will be the quality and the more Ger
tain the crop will be to come through
on time. Here Is a chance to use m
all the seasons l%eftovers in the way Of
plant foods. There are probably odds.
and ends Of fertilizers, the COMPOST
heap that has accumulated during the
spring and summer, the chicken ma
nure and some ashes. In addition to
this general hash of plant foods give
a good dressing Of high grade fertilizer
for the last course and rake it thor
oughly into the soil.
Do not be afraid of getting the soil
too rich. Any of these deposits in the
soil bank that the celery does not draw
upon for use will be available for early
spring crops Of green onions, lettuce
and cabbage.
Equally important are good, sturdy,
well developed plants that have al
ready begun to get their shape, are
easy to plant and are ready to grow
right on. Size at the base Of the stalks
rather than height should be the basis
upon which to Judge plants. A spin
ding plant will waste a good deal of
time in r%eadjusting itself to a better
form, If 1t " does so.
If you have your OWE plants growing
in a fiat or in a frame cut the tops
back severely a week Dr. so before
planting. It is well also to keep them
rather on the dry side until just q day
or two before planting. This stimu-
lates the growth Of the feeding root
hairs which take up the plant food
solutions from the soil, and as many Of
these roots are destroyed in trans
planting even with care the more there
are available the sooner the plantsw wifi
become established

DESTROY FIRE BLIGHT.

Fire blight is a thing to be
dreaded and prepared against. 1t
has been estimated to carry an
annual loss of some $25, 100000
in the whole country. Pear and
apple trees are its main victims,
1t is caused by q minute organism
that lives in cankers formed at
the base Of the fruit spars or on
the branches. sometimes also On
the trunk and larger limbs. Ev-
cry fruit grower should train his
eyes nll ob$crvational powers to
detect ii and destroy it us soon as
Noticed. The twigs and leaves

Someone whose occupation. o bust
ness. is the thinking up of pretty
things must have turned her attention
recently to artificial flowers. For these
cunning copies Of natures beauty-won-
ders are compelling attention every
where because they are used in new
and unusual ways. We are used to
seeing them in corsage bouquets and
replacing natural flowers In the limou-
sine. We are familiar with them in
girdles about the waist and in
wreaths about the hair, but these are
only mere beginnings of their useful
ness as IT has been lately developed.
Everywhere little blossoms nestle
in bows and rosettes of malines or
lace, ornamenting collars and cuffs.

are perched In bright sprays on the

piece is set in at each side by shir-
ring or plating it to the yoke. The
fashion for short skirts help make the
way easy in altering them. and Dor
ders at the bottom and bands set on
are useful for the same purpose.
Coats have been brought up to date
this season by the addition of full
skirts, set on at the waist line, and
by belts and pockets made in the new
mode. A collar and cuffs in another
fabric help out in the transformation.

the smartest of finishing touches.
