IFarm and Garden t IMPROVING STOCK. Tha Inevitable Process For Cattlemci! and Horsemen, i ' By J. S. COTTON. Improvement of the class of stock using the grazing lands is becoming constantly more important The man Who is running his stock in inclosed areas or contemplates so doing in the future will find it necessary if be is to be successful to carry that class of etoek that will net him the greatest re turns. This statement- holds equally true for the outside range. In fact, there are only two methods whereby the man who expects to continue run ning his stock on the public domain can meet the existing condition suc cessfully. One is the raising of suf ficient feed to carry bis stock through STALLION ON THIS BANGS. (Used in improving a herd in North Da kota. the winter safely; the other, to run a grade of stock that shall make the largest possible returns in the shortest time. Not only must these cattle mature early, but they must be of a quality that will dress a good percentage of beef. This means that the cattleman Will need to raise high grade cows and supply the jery best bulls he can se cure. If pure bred so much the better. In many instances the cattleman will need to grow cattle for the eastern feed yards. In producing such cattle many, of these men will find it neces sary to improve their herds greatly, for quality and not quantity is wbat the eastern feeder wants. What has been said of cattle holds equally true of horses. Today there is almost no place for the small horse or "cayuse," while good animals are in demand. .. That one can afford to raise good horses on the range has been demonstrated by a stockman living in western North Dakota. During a pe riod of low prices for range horses this t a. 1. 1 i- : j With this animal and nine range mares of average size and quality as a nu cleus he built up a fine herd. When the stallion died he was replaced with two registered Percherons, which con tinued to build up the herd until it was one of the finest herds of range horses in the United States. One of these stallions is shown in the figure. W-heu this man got his first horse bis neighbors believed that he had made a serious mistake in buying so ex pensive an animal. For several years While he was building up his herd, at which time horses were of almost no value, he was considerably in debt. As his stock began to improve and the price of horses increased he began to realize well from this herd, and dur ing the last two years he has sold geld ings in carload lots at $125 a head un brokeu. In the summer of 130C he Bold his entire herd, 227 head, at S3 a head straight for all branded stock, an unusually high price for range horses. There were two mares of his own raising in the herd for which the buyers refused $550 unbroken. This man estimates that his first stallion made for him many times what he paid for it For Winter Sport. very country boy can get a whole lot of fun out of a "go devil" coaster. The illustration shows how It Is made. A barrel stave, a piece of 2 by 4 and COASTER AND BOBSLEDS. a piece of scrap lumber are all the ma terial required. And here is also a method of connecting bobsleds which will cause the hind one to follow the track of the front bob on all turns. National Stockman. What We Want to Know. "A heavy application of manure alone gave slightly larger yields of mixed bay at the first and second cuttings than a combination of a smaller amount of manure and potash. During the six teen years this experiment has been In progress the average yields of ten crops of corn and six of bay have been greater on the larger amount of ma nure alone, but not sufficiently greater to cover the extra outlay at a cost of $5 per cord for the manure." This nugget of experience from the Massa chusetts station represents the kind of .work that means much to farmers. TTY TOBACCO CROPS. 8eed Selection and Improved Handllna of Plant. - " : By W. H. BCHERFFTUS. tobacco expert. Kentucky experiment station. The importance of good seed in every crop has been demonstrated so often that every farmer should know that It pays him well to plant only the best Tobacco Is no exception to thif rule. JJght, chaffy seeds that are low In vi tality give us plants that are weaklings with slow growth. Various schemes for separating the light from the heavy tobacco seed have been suggested, but the most thoroughly practical method Is by means of a piece of apparatus In troduced by the bureau of plant In dustry and a current of air which Is generated with, the foot bellows, as shown In the cut The air passes through the rubber tube, then through the valve, which can be regulated to admit of the passage of the desired amount of air to accomplish the best separation. The air passes up through a piece of half Inch iron tube, thence through a larger glass tube and out at the top, carrying with It the light chaffy seed. At the base of the glass tube, which Is about an inch In diam eter and five or six feet long, Is a me tallic joint which has a piece of fine wire gauze In it to prevent the seed from falling into the valve below. Using about an ounce of seed for each charge, only a few minutes are re quired to separate a considerable quantity. - This piece of apparatus can be made by most any mechanic, or it can be purchased from any chemical 'supply house. Every community should own one of these machines for the benefit of Its farmers. Improved methods of handling the crop is a topic of such magnitude that we deem it expedient at this writing not to go into detailed discussion of this phase of the subject Although the white burley and dark tobaccos are different types, the same TOBACCO SEED SEP ABATOR. general methods employed In the state for handling the crops are similar. It is desirable and usually the custom to select a piece of virgin soil for-a seed bed. During the winter or early spring it is heated to a depth of two or three Inches by burning brushwood or sim ilar material on it to kill any weed seeds that would germinate and hinder the growth of the young tobacco plants. After the plot of ground is cool It Is then dug up, slightly raised Into beds, raked and put In good condition for the seed. Although the cultural methods and mechanical manipulations of seeding. canvassing the beds, transplanting, cultivation and housing are adjusted to suit each locality, they are all car ried out on the same general plan. There Is often from two or two and one-half times 3 much burley 'tobacco set on the ground as is put on the same area in the dark tobacco district Bitter Rot of Apples. It is well known that the bitter rot of apples is due to a specific fungus. This fungus grows on developing ap ples, beginning at any time during the summer or autumn when the condi tions are favorable after the fruits are formed and until and after they are ripe, and it lives as a parasite In the bark of apple tree limbs, usually in localized areas called cankers. It does not occur upon the leaves. The fungus lives over winter In woundlike spots called cankers on the limbs of the apple trees,' and from these Infection may start the succeed ing season. Not infrequently the loca tion of a canker can be made out by the spots beneath it on the growing fruit caused by spores washing with rainwater from the former on to the surfaces of the apples. The area of such Infection in a well fruited tree frequently takes the form of a cone with its apex upward at or beneath the limb canker. The water carrying the spores does not descend perpen dicularly because of the interference of the foliage; hence the wider area of Infection below. Illinois Experiment Station. - Corn and Emmer. . In some experiments with two-year-old grade steers it was found that a pound of corn was equal to one and a quarter pounds of emmer. Where the corn and emmer were mixed half and half by weight the relation was about the same, with a small Increase in gain In favor of the mixture. With hogs It required seven to eight pounds of emmer as against about five pounds of corn to produce a pound of gain. A Satisfactory Herd. Choice cows can seldom be bought at reasonable figures, unless It be at a dispersion sale. The owners know their worth and will not part with them. This being the case, the only way we can get a satisfactory herd Is to raise it This is not only more sat isfactory, bat It Is much more econom ical. .. " ' Jersey Ball For Sale.

PLAN TO FIGHT DISEASE. Druggists Will Battle Stomach ' Troubles in Corvallis. The increase of stomach troubles in Corvallis has led Graham & Wells to take effective measures to combat the disease. They have the local agency for Mi-o-na stent ach tablets, - and in order to induce people suffering with weak stomach or indigestion to use the remedy, offer to supply it with the distinct understanding that money will be refunded in every ease where it dose not cure. , ' , Mi-o-na is not a mere digestive, but an absolute etreagthener and build er-up of the whole digestive tract. ;If you suffer with headaches, giddiness, palpitation, bad taste in the mouth, nervousness, cob ted tongue, distress after eating, use Mi-o-na and sehow quii kly these symp toms of a weak stomach will disappear. The remedy strengthens the muscular walls of the stomach and increases the flow of gastric juices so that nourishment is extracted from the food and the refuse is expelled without the aid of . purgatiye or laxative medicines.
