busy on the stack all tbe time, and
they will not have to reach over the
edge of the stack to help get the bay

side of tbe stack, as many pitchers de
nor does It make the stack heavier on
one aide than the other. A round
stack can be built twemty feet high
and easily made to hold from twelve
to fifteen tons. It saves time, mony,
help, muscle, patience "and other
things too numerous to mention."
Coet'y Crop Pests.
The proceeds from the wheat crop,
the average annual farm value of
whloh may be roughly put at four
hundred million dollars, have In more
than one year been cut down as much
as fifty per cent as a result of the
ravages of the chinch bug and the
Hessian fly. King Cotton alone was
damaged to the extent of nearly fifty
million dollars by the so-called Mexi
can boU weevil, in the slnle State of
Texas, in 1006, according to a care
fully icomplled report tsaued by tbe
Census Bureau. The apple crop ha
been reduced es much as twenty-lve
per cent In many seasons through tie
operations of the codling moth and
other Insects. So one might ge through
the entire list The burden Is dis
tressingly heavy, but ft Is safe to as
sert that farmers themselves who,
obviously, ought to know as much of
this phase of the matter as anybody
will agree that their losses. In practi
cally every Instance, would be far
greater were the scientific knowledge
of tho Department of Agriculture's
staff not put to account A careful
survey of the facts leads to the conclu
sion that the total damage each year
would be from two to four times as
large were It not for the Department
of Agriculture's unremitting warfare
against the pests, and that a maxi
mum annual destruction of two billion
dollars, or nearly one-half the whole
yearly value of the country's crops, at
present, would be possible. C. Arthur
Williams In "Success Magazine."
Water for Horses.
The amount of water required by
horses varies mora than for any other
animal. It is greatly affected by
work and feed, being about twice as
great when the horse Is at hard work
and much greater when fed on dry
roughage than when fed on a eon
centrated ration. In one exparlment
a horse while walking required 27.3
pounds of water dally, while trotting
and performing ho required CO pounds.
Farm and Live Stock Journal.
Value of Heavy Bod.
While not for a moment advocating
extravagance It Is safe to say that
most farmers ought to add one-half
more, at least, to the quantity of grays
seed they use both In the first seed
ing and the reseedlng of meadows.
Not only should this be done In order
to get better crops of hay and to have
a growth of grass Instead of weeds
which find a place where the seeding
is light, but in order that when the
sod Is to be turned undex it is of the
greatest possiDia varus to the crops
which are to follow.
A Good Btock Tonic.
Each of the many stock foods, or
condlniental spices now on the market,
has Its own particular composition.-!
and it is better, both from the poiuis
of view of economy and cleaullness, to
make use of these, but If this is quite !

fed without the meal. When mixed j
with maize meal the quantity to be
fed to a horse, cow, or ox at each
feed Is one pint, and to each calf.
foal, sheep, or hog, half a pint When
fed without the meal It should be giv
en in the proportion of a tablespoonful
to a horse, cow or ox, and half thnt

animals.
Indigestion In Cows.
It is a common expression to speak
of a cow as losing her cud when flhe
stops ruminating The trouble is diw
to indigestion wholly, and may be
easily remedied, in most eases, by a
proper diet Usually this trouble oc
curs most frequently in the winter,
when the cows nre heavily grain fed,
but sometimes occurs with cows in the
summer who are on the rnng", but aro
receiving some grain. . In such cases
a good plan Is to cut out the grain ra
tion entirely for a few days, or until
the cow again chews her cud. For a
time after she resumes rnminntin?.
feed her largely on the grass with
some good hay, and gradually get her
on to the grain. A day or two after
the grain ration has been cut oft the-

pound of Epsom salts ami two ounces
of ground ginger root mixed in two
quarts of warm water. In the winter

beginning of tbe treatment, and make
up the ration with roots or ensilage.
At all times cows should have free ac

To Put Potatoes in Cellar.
Here. Is an excellent device for use
ln unloading apples or potatoes from a
cart to the cellar. Take a niece of No.
12 wire (telephone wire) and run It
from a stake ln front of the rollway
down through the rollway, or potato
bin. String two Iron hooks on the
wire and hook the loaded basket upon
these, when the load will slide smooth
ly down and across the cellar, where
the helper can empty the basket A
light cord attached to the basket al
lows the man outside to pull the bas
ket back for another load. This
saves a Urge amount of heavy lifting
and saves time also, since two baskets
can be kept going,

Pastnring and Soiling;.
A comparison was made .at the Ne
braska Experiment Station of tbe
amount of feed produced and the ef
fect upon the yield of milk and butter
fat when certain crops were pastured
and when they were cut aud fed.
The crops so tested were alfalfa, aor
ghum and Indian corn. In the case of
each of these from two to three times
us much feed was procured from a
given area of land when the erop was
cut and fed as when It was pastured.
Top Dressing Forage Crops.
At the New Jersey Experiment Sta
tion tests have been made of nitrate of
soda as a top dressing on forage crop
in connection with the manures and
fertilizers generally used. In all cases
a very marked Increase due to the ap
plication of nitrate occurred, ranging
from 84.1 per cent for corn to OC.O per
cent for barley profitable return
from the use of the nitrate on all
crops except the barley, which, owing
to unfavorable weather conditions,
did not make a lurge yield.
' The Brood Sows. v
Give brood sows the freedom of the
pasture fields when wltb young pigs
and at soon as the pigs are old enough
to eat feed a' little shelled corn and
dry middlings with a mash of wheat
middlings aud milk. Sows with pigs
should always have access to a good
blue grass pasture and should not be
fed too much corn. The largest part
of the ration should be made up of
oats and bran with a little oil meal,
nave plenty of charcoal and ashes con
stantly available. An occasional feed
f tart will be found profitable.

Deepest Haul Ever Made.
The deepest haul of a net ever
made In the world was achieved by
Americans off the Tonga Islands in
the South Pacific. The trawl struck
bottom 23,000 feet below the surface;
that is considerably more than four
miles down, but even at that depth
animal life was found. Those strange
beings, lived in water whose tempera
ture was constantly just above the
freezing point and under a pressure
of 9,000 pounds to the square inch.
To sink that net and bring It back
