In confirmation of his statements,

had the night before been to dance,
and who did not get home until it was
almost time for Buxton himself to
arise and address himself to the wan
ng fires in the furnace, The dance
had been at town sixty miles away,
and the distance had been negotiated,
as they say in the newspapers, in the
family, car which, when stepped on
properly, will do that distance in some
hing less than an hour if the road is
clear. Buxton has himself frequently
demonstrated this fact in his own
irving.

size and stature. A German paper re-
ports that in some peasant districts
his name is pronounced with the ven
Grafton of saint and remarks that
such legends as are being interviewer
with the name of Lenin could only
originate on Russian soil. We find
that under the glare of Prussian en-
lightment of this century strange
legends sprung up in Germany. As
for instance this case: In 1895 the
Anthropological society of western
Prussia instituted series of inves-
legations, in the course of which the
complexion and the color of the hair
and eyes of the children at the pub
lie schools were to be noted, in order
to determine the prevalence of certain
racial traits. The most extravagaut
rumors circulated in the districts of
Dantzic, Thorn, Kuhn, all the way to
Posen. Parents, seized by unreason-
ing terror. sent their children In great
numbers to Russia. One rumor said
that the king of Prussia had lost 1000

Remodel Henhouse Into
Correct Type Is Urged

Many of the old unsatisfactory
poultry houses now to be found on
farms could be remodeled at little ex-
pense and trouble in such way as
to provide a comfortable home for the
flock, according to poultrymen at the
college of agriculture, University of
Illinois. The common type of house
often is too narrow. allowing little
chance for ventilation without drafts
blowing directly on the birds. The
narrow house, 10 to ii feet in width
and of shed type, can often be con-
verted into a half-monitor type by
building an s to 10-foot shed on the
front, sloping 1t toward the south.
Houses of the gable-type of roof,
especially those which are too high,
usually will be made more comfort
able for the hens if boards are laid
across the plates and layer of straw
placed on top Of these.
1t will pay to study plans of type
of poultry house adapted to climatic
conditions where the farm is located
before one decides to build. Many ex-
pensively built poultry houses prove

Nursery Stock Requires
Very Best of Attention

Immediately upon arrival OF the
nursery stock care should be taken in
heeling 1t in until planting time or
until the soil has been prepared. BY
allowing the stock to he around for
several days before unpacking and
heeling-in, one very materially weak
ems the plants If not killing them COM
pletely through loss of moisture. When
unpacking the stock soak the roots In
a tub of water for several hours be-
fore heeling-in. Large bundles should
be united, the packing removed and
the bundle somewhat loosened so that
when heeled-in the moist soil will
come in contact with all roots. Plants
are heeled-in by digging a shallow,
sloping trench in a cool situation and
placing the loosened bundle of stock
in it so that the. plants lie nearly
horizontal, yet with portion OF the
tops sticking out of the trench, then
covering the roots with soil.

Result of Experiments Con-
Quoted at Beltsville.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Experiments conducted at the fed
eral dairy farm at Beltsville, Nd, on
the drinking habits of dairy cows indi-
cate that greater quantity of water
will be utilized when available at all
times than when offered but once
day. Cows watered but once day
not only drank less but also produced
less milk than when watered at will
from watering cups. Cows watered
twice a day drank as much as when
watered at will, but did not produce
so much milk.
The cows used in the tests were av-
erage producers, and the maximum
difference found in production be-
tween watering once day and
at will, was only about 8 per cent.
The higher the production, however,
the greater the benefit to be derived
from frequent watering.
Some low-producing cows fed silage,
hay, and grain refused to drink
more than once day in cold weather.
With cows of similar production and
receiving the same kind of feed, water
consumption was so per cent greater
in hot summer than in cold winter

Manure Contains Needed
Food for Various Crops

Manure contains valuable plant food,
In the ratio of about one pound of
phosphoric for each two pounds of
either nitrogen or potash. Manure can
be utilized most economically by those
crops which are heavy feeders on
nitrogen and potash, such as corn, po-
tatoes and beets, rather than on the
small grains, which require more phos-
phorus. On most soils phosphorus Is
the first limiting factor. If enough
manure were used on crop to supply
all the phosphorus removed, the
chances are that much of the nitrogen
and potash would be wasted, because
of the greater ability of the soil to
supply these two elements. Therefore
one of the best ways to make manure
go farther Is to reinforce 1t with acid
phosphate.

Winter Stores for Bees
Quite Important Matter

When honey in the hive Is not Of the
best quality, it is unsafe for winter
stores in any place where the bees do
not have frequent flights during the
winter, viz, almost every week. In
the North. about ten or twelve pounds
of strip made from two parts granu-
lated sugar to one part water should
be fed as soon as the bees have ceased
brood rearing, as an insurance against
the danger of poor honey. 1t Is wiser,
however, to have an upper story or
flood chamber" already filled with the
finest honey of the season, ready to
place just above the brood chamber
when the section supers or other sur
plus arrangements are removed. This
will do away with the need of fall or
spring feeding.

Grass Paddock Helps.
In connection with the stable, large
paddock or Enclosure, especially a
sodded one, helps considerably to
keep horses that are worked irregu-
larly In fit condition. The exercise
and grass thus made available are
both beneficial. This exercise In the
open will help to guard against filled
hooks, azeturia (so-called Monday
morning sickness) and other troubles.
A further aid to the health consists in
thorough grooming.
AS spring approaches the horse must
be put into condition for the heavy
work ahead. This fitting period varies
with the condition of the animal, or
dinarily lasting from two to four
weeks. A young horse, especially one
just broken, requires longer than the
mature animal. AT this time the win
ter ration, consisting largely of coarse
roughages, should gradually give way
to a smaller feed of finer-quality hay
and small quantity of grain three
times daily. This ration should be
slowly increased until, with the be-
ginning of light work, 1,400-pound
horse will receive daily about fourteen
or fifteen pounds of Inequality hay.
This gradual change from coarse
roughage to good quality feed will
have nreparad the digestive tract for
handling eighteen to nineteen pounds
of grain and sixteen to eighteen pounds
of hay, which the horse will need when
doing heavy work. Along with the
more nourishing ration the work OF
the horse must be increased by de-
! grees until he can, without overexer-
| ton, do a full days work.

Waste of Plant Food by
MANAGEMENT of Manure

On many farms much of the plant
food in manure Is wasted by careless
methods of handling. Not every farm
can afford a covered manure shed, but
it takes little additional labor to place
manure from the barns in compact
piles where the losses from teaching
are minimized than it does to allow
it to spread in a shallow open pile all
over the barnyard. The most efficient
way to handle manure is to haul 1t
out to the field in spreader as fast
as produced, but this practice is not
always feasible.

Idle Animals Do Well on
Roughages Supplemented
With Grain.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture)
The ideal method of wintering idle
or light working farm horses to
one that will bring them through to
spring with normal weight, renewed
vitality, and increased energy. Obvi-
ously the winter ration should be diff
ferent from that for the other seasons.
The liberal use of roughage, supple
mented with the right amounts and
kinds of other nutritious feeds, will
maintain a horse properly during the
winter. Idle farm horses, except
brood mares and growing stock, ordi-
narily do well on a ration composed
largely of the coarser hays, straws and
corn fodder. Cornstalk fields, grain
stubble fields, or pastures which have
not been closely grazed during the
summer are very desirable sources of
a large part of the winter maintenance
feed for such stock. 1t is often adj
yisable to supplement the coarser
roughage with a moderate supply OF
legume such as alfalfa, clover, vetch,
sorghum, soy-bean, or cowpea hay.
These hays are not only rich in pro-
tein and mineral matter, but, being
somewhat laxative in-effect, they also
help to keep the digestive tract in
good condition. They are especially
valuable when fed with straw and sim
liar feeds, for when so used supple
mental ration of grain is unnecessary.
The drinking of an abundance of pure
water by the horse will tend to in
crease the utilization of dry roughage.
If impracticable to feed legume hay,
small quantity of grain, preferably
oats, or, If more economical, corn or
barley, will serve to maintain the
horse in thrifty condition. One or two
bran mashes week or little linseed
meal each day will help to keep the
system in good condition and prevent
| impaction resulting from consumption
of large amounts of coarse roughage
improperly supplemented.
Salt for Horses.
An average of about three-fourth
ounce of salt daily is sufficient for
most horses, except those doing heavy
work or when on dry feed. The con-
| dition of the horse that has been prop
erly cared for in the open through the
winter is usually better than that of
| the stable horse. In some sections of
the country, however, weather condi-
| tons do not permit wintering horses
outdoors. Where the animals must be
| kept In stables, these should be made
as sanitary and comfortable as pos
sible An abundance of light and
proper ventilation of the stable
! throughout the entire year are essen
| tial for complete sanitation and the
health of the horse. A system of ven
| tilation with fioor-outlet ventilators
will tend to carry off foul air and reg
/ ulate the temperature, especially In
| colder climates. 1t is important that
the horse be protected from direct
drafts. Where windows are relied
upon for both light and ventilation
| they should be high up from the floor,
and open inwardly from the top. Stalls
must be bedded, and cleaned daily, In
order to keep them dry and sanitary.
| Clay floors are doubtless the best If
correctly built and properly attended
to. They must be kept smooth, with
slightly more slope for drainage than
