Thla matter muot not bo reprinted with
out opecta! permission.
Keeping dairy cowa means produc
ing more food on fewer acres and con
sequently getting greater profits.
The farmer should make use of hla
porches and easy chairs on rainy days.
There Is no reason why he should not
enjoy some of these pleasures.
The problem of the middleman will
continue to be a live one Just so long
as the man who grows the things folks
eat gets but 35 cents out of every dol
lar which the consumer pays for these
same necessaries.
Soil in the average grain growing
sections contains far too small an
amount of humus to make advisable
the burning of straw. It should be
scattered If It cannot be converted Into
manure and later plowed under.
August Is an excellent time for the
killing of pasture and roadside weeds,
for at this time plants put forth their
greatest effort in the production of
seed with the result that the root sys
tem Is left In a condition of low vi
tality. Many an otherwise valuable horse Is
practically ruined by careless hired
help or proprietors striking them on
the head. Hit In this way, a horse will
throw Its head up for months after
ward whenever a quick motion Is made
close to It.
Two or three figs well chewed and
eaten at breakfast are recommended
by leading physicians as an excellent
yet gentle tonic for a sluggish sys
tem. Moreover, from the standpoint
of food value figs are worth nearly as
much as meat
A speaker before the International
Shippers' association stated that If
girls knew the real value of apples as
complexion beautlfiers they would be
eating them morning, noon and night
In fact, would have apples In their
pockets all the time.
In June time the writer Is Inclined
to the view that there Is no dish quite
equal to strawberries and thick cream,
but in August be Is inclined to have a
good deal the same opinion of a dish
of ripe, luscious sliced tomatoes and
some of the same kind of cream.
Reports have been coming In from
many sections of the corn belt the past
two or three weeks telling of extensive
damage being done to fields of corn by
the big white grubs, the lurvae of the
June or thunder bug. The grubs work
In the hills and cut and eat the roots
of the corn plants. In one Instance as
high as fifteen acres was reported
ruined by the grubs.
An old rooster (human) living near
Medora, Kan., provides his horses with
overalls, which they wear In summer
to keep off the files, and In winter for
warmth There Is a possibility, how
ever, that the winter use of these gar
ments is so the owner may not have
to use currycomb and brush. And it
would be Interesting to know whether
this old codger or his good wife laun
der these bifurcated horse furnishings.
The beads of early and medium cab
bage may be prevented from bursting
If one takes a knife and cuts the stem
a half or more through Just below the
head. This restricts the flow of nour
ishment from the root, and, while the
head will keep crisp and fresh. It will
not burst It Is especially advisable
to try this In case heavy rains follow
dry spells, when a second period of
growth sets In, tending to burst the
head already formed.
The spring steel "terror rat and
mice traps do not give satisfactory
service unless the halt used Is fastened
quite securely to the tongue of the trap.
The writer has found It a good plan to
tie the cheese or meat with which the
traps are baited with a piece of string
or, better still, fine wire, ns the rodents
will often cut the string in gnawing at
the bait. It Is a good Idea to keep
baited mouse and rat traps set all the
time, and when the rodents put In an
appearance they will forthwith get it
In the neck.
So seriously are the great fields of
sweet corn In some districts where big
canning factories are located Infested
with the corn ear worm that the sea-
ton's operations will be greatly reduc
ed. If In some Instances not entirely
prevented. The worm Is at work ear
lier than usual and In lnrge numbers,
with the result that the ears are so
badly eaten that they will have to be
pared severely by hand or thrown out
entirely. Spraying the fields with ar
senate of lend has been found an effec
tive means of killing the worms before
they enter the ear. but this Is too late
to do any good this season.
BY .W&Vri
PICK SEED EARS EARLY.
The attest time to ugltate the seed
corn question U uot in March and
April, Just before the supply la needed
to put into the planter boxes, nor in
the fall after there have been several
bard freezes, but now while the corn
is denting and maturing. It is prob
ably a fair statement of the case that if
very farmer who lives In the north
ern portion of the com belt, where the
aeed corn question usually gives most
concern, would select his seed eurs be
fore Sept. 20, hang tbetn up In the sun
shine where there Is good movement of
air, finish drying the seed out if necessary-
by the sitting room stove and
tore it where it would keep dry, he
would not have any seed corn prob
lem on his hands next spring. Perhaps
in a majority of seasons In which the
corn ripens early and dries out thor
oughly seed ears may be selected as
late as busking time, but several sea
sons In the last dozen years have not
been of this kind, with the result that
a good deal of seed saved at husking
time was not worth a copper, ricking
seed corn early as suggested not only
Insures good seed, but early maturing
types of corn can be selected. In pick
ing the supply get 'four or five times
as much as you need yourself. This
will uot only give you a better selec
tion for the ears you usu for your own
planting, but your neighbor may want
It at J3 to (3 a bushel, as some farm
ers did last spring.
EVERYBODY 6HOULD ENLI8T.
With rats doing a damage annually
which is put by the department of
agriculture at $100.0oO.CKJU, It is not
strange that a vigorous campaign Is
being waged In many quarters for
their extermination. While a good
deal of thla damage is borne by farm
en In damage done to corn, small
grain and vegetables, a very heavy toll
is also exacted from manufacturers
and wholesale and retail dealers In
cloth, leather and other goods. But
this financial loss is but a part of the
core against the rat The fondness
of rats for phosphorus Is said to be
responsible for many disastrous fires,
matches being carried by the rodents
into their runs beneath storehouses
and other buildings. A further reason
for the rat campaign is that they are
the chief carriers of bubonic plague
and other malignant dlseanes. The rat
Is a curse on the face of the earth,
and both old folks and children should
wage an unsparing fight against them
with poison, traps and other means.
THE SILENT TIME.
There Is a time about now when the
birds of field and wood lot are strange
ly silent Whether It Is because court
ing and homemaklng days for the
season are over with most of them.
whether they make transient migra
tions to other haunts or whether they
sense the approach of fall and the
gradual failure of what has been an
abundant food supply we do not
know. Terhnps all three elements en
ter. Hut, whatever the cause, there Is
a sense of loss and lotiesonieness with
the rare June time music gone With
the song of robin and thrush and
meadow lark have passed the cheery
notes of the meadow frog, mid Instead
of these have come the monotone of the
crickets ami the pluiutive challenge of
the tree toad
