ROTATION OF CROPS.
Advantagea Gained by an Intelligent
Employment of This Practice.
The two chief and general reasons
why rotation of crops is necessary, ac
cording to L. H. Bonham, secretary of
the Ohio State Board of Agriculture,
are: 1. For the conservation of the
soil. 2. For the sake of economy. Re
moval of crops takes from the farm
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash.
Reckless farming in time depletes the
soil below the point of profitable produc
tion, but the sou is practically inex
haustible, since an acre of soil to the
depth of one foot contains nitrogen.
8,000 pounds; phosphoric acid, 15,000
pounds; potash, 12,000 pounds.
Commercial fertilizers are a poor de
pendence for keeping up fertility. They
can only feed the crop in part, and are
too costly to be nsed in storing np fer
tility for future crops. Fertility is con
stantly being unlocked by chemical ac
tion, by frost and moisture.
Nitrification is the most important
chemical operation in nature, without
which we cannot conceive of continued
fertility. The conditions favoring ni
trification are: 1. A porous soil. 2.
Warmth, as nitrification is dormant at
42 degs. and most active when warm
enough to decay meat and vegetables.
3. Moisture in regular and moderate sup
ply. Clover and grasses Bhade the Boil, re
tain moisture, render it porous and favor
nitrification while filling in vegetable
matter.
Nature rotates crops. When the for
ests of oak and hickory have been re
moved a thick growth of evergreens ap
pears. In New England, where white
pine forests have been removed, the
maple, chestnut and oak have sprung np.
A similar rotation is found in timothy
meadows, followed by blue grass.
Besides a general there is a special de
pletion by each variety of crops. As
each crop seems to have special wants
we increase crops by a change, but
chemistry has not been able to tell us
why.
Plants vary in power to appropriate
food. Clover, we say, has a high power
to gather nitrogen, while wheat has a
low power; hence clover precedes wheat
well. Wheat grows mostly in cool
weather, when nitrification is Blow or
dormant; hence the soil for wheat must
be rich in nitrogen. On the other hand,
corn grows wholly in warm weather;
hence it needs less nitrogen to make a
crop.
Plants have favorites in plant food.
Wheat, for example, takes 114 pounds
of potash to every pounds of phos
phoric acid. Potatoes take 314 pounds
of potash to one pound of phosphoric
acwl. Plants take food only in soluble
or gaseous form. It is a wise arrange
ment that soil does not dissolve aa free
ly as sugar or salt, or one soaking rain
would ruin us. Btirring the soil favors
disintegration; hence plowed or hoed
crops should follow grasBes.
Grasses are conserves of soil and pre
vent washing and leaching. Rotation
checks some kinds of insect ravages and
fungi. The corn root worm does not
feed on clover roots. The clover root
borer does not bore corn roots or roots
of wheat, oats, etc. The smut of wheat
does not attack corn, etc.
Growing a variety of crops in intelli
gent or scientific rotation is good econo
my. It divides the labor of the year,
gives regular employment the year
round and has many advantages of great
significance.
Old or New Meadotra.
Some old meadows are better than
some new meadows close by, while
others are not so good. Old meadows
on well drained land that has been regu
larly top dressed, .mowed at the right
time and otherwise properly cared for.
will yield hay of a more uniform char
acter and quality than most new mead
ows. But old meadows, or lands that
have not been drained or top dressed, on
which the grass has been allowed to
ripen seed before being mown, or has
been heavily pastured, will not yield as
large crops, nor will the hay be as good
as might have been grown from new
seeding. Furthermore, all old meadows
are liable to become foul with weeds
own by the winds or scattered with the
manure. Against reseeding is to be
counted the cost of breaking np, of the
seed, and of the danger of failure to se
cure a stand. Old meadows generally
consist of one or two grasses, while new
meadows should contain at least half a
dozen. The tpuestion, therefore, as to
whether it is best to plow up an old
meadow or not must be determined by
its condition and the needs of the farm.

and another an iron rod for brace. The
beam is about 5' feet long, with a
wooden roller in front to gauge the
depth.
Oue strong horse will draw this tool

and stir up the soil three or four inches
below the line of the surface plowing. I

after picking, with two horses, going as
deep as they can draw it, and afterward
1 cultivate with a light cultivator. I
also use it with excellent success where
rowa of potatoes, celery, raspberries or
young trees are to be planted, going
back and forth a few times in the same
furrow.
A PORTASLE FENCE.
Bow to Make It, Bow to Tut It Cp anil
now to Take It Down.
A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer
furnished the following sketch and de
scription of a portable fence he has
used with satisfaction for twelve years.
He says:
Have your boards 14 feet long, 5
inches wide and 1 inch thick. Take two
narrow boards 3 feet long; cut notches
ONK PANEL OP A PORTABLE FENCE.
in them 1 inch deep as far apart as you
want the boards, and fasten them to the
barn floor, to put the ends of the boards
in, one at each end. These boards are 7
inches apart. Then cut three strips,
saine length of these, nail one in the cen
ter and the other two 15 inches from
each end. Use wire nails and clinch
well. This makes one panel, as shown
in Fig. 1.
How to put it up: Set posts 13 feet
apart. Raise the panel 6 inches from
the ground and bore a Jg-inch hole
through the post under the top board,
into which drive the hook shown at Fig.
2. This hook is made of J-inch square
iron. Put another hook under the third
board from top, as shown. This gives
you a lap of 6 inches of panel. Drive
hooks up snug, and you will have a
good, strong fence, that nothing will
disturb. When you want to move the
fence start the hookB back with a blow
or two of the hammer.
Cost of fence: It takes about 25 feet of
Inmber to each panel. Therefore 1,000
feet will make 40 panels, or 80 rods of
fence.
One thousand feet of hemlock $9 00
Forty chestnut posts, at seven cents each t 80
Eighty hooks, about 2 75
Nails 45
Total J15 00
Or 50 cents per rod. This does not in
clude making of panels or sharpening of
posts. This is about the price of ma
terial here. Of course the cost varies in
different localities. Again, the panels
can be made to suit any one by having
wider boards or spaces, but the object is
to have them alike, so they will hang on
the hooks on any post.
Advantages of this fence: It can be
made on stormy days in a workshop or
on the barn floor. It does not take any
more nails, You save a middle post, and
that will pay for two hooks, and they
will last forever. By starting the hooks
back a little it is very readily taken
down to bo moved or laid down all win
ter, avoiding all snowdrifts. Drive your
posts in the spring if necessary, and
hang up again, and when you wish to
move them you can draw 15 or 20 panels
at one load. Instead of bars or gates I
make them 12 feet long, only one post
near each end, and one hook in each
post under tho second board from top,
to fasten it. Bore a hole in the width
of board above the hook and put a pin
in. It can be taken out and put back
again about as quick as opening and
shutting a gate, and answers every pur
pose of an expensive gate.
A Successful Hog Pen.
The pen depicted in the cut is made in
the corner of the hog lot and is described
by Prairie Farmer as follows:
A convenient size is 0 by 12 feet,
Extra posts are planted in the ground
six feet from the line fence, then three
2 by 8 joists bolted or spiked to the
A HANDY PEN FOR SWINE.
posts. On these joists the floor is laid
on 2 by 12 pieces. The fence is to be
built with boards on the inside of the
posts for the greatest strength. At each
end is left a doorway. The doors slide
up and down between cleats nailed to
the posts. This pen is built above the
ground at the height of the wagon box
for convenience in loading and unload
ing hogs. The entrance to the pen is by
a chute from the ground, allowing the
hogs to ruu up and down at will to feed
on a dry floor and to capture them when
wanted. This pen will be found a good
investment, as it will save much labor
with the animals, and then the floor
makes a good shelter from storms.
Commercial Fertilizers for Wbeat.
A bulletin from the Kentucky exper
iment station confirms previous reports
upon tests with commercial fertilizers
for wheat, namely, that they have no
effect upon the yield of wheat. Potash,
however, used upon the same soil and
field with com and potatoes, gave favor
able results. Of the many varieties of
wheat used it was found that the best
yields were made from Egyptian, fol
lowed closely by Hunter's, White and
German Emperor.
Here and Tbere.
Plowing by electricity will soon be in
common use, at least so says Senator
Kellor, of Sauk Center, Minn.
Good wethers will give you every year
for four years wool enough to half pay
for themselves, and at five years old
they are just old enough to make the best
of mutton.
A correspondent writing to The Rural
New Yoricer ssys: "A neighboring far
mer informed me a day or two ago that
in putting away his oats last Bummer he
had salted it in layers, and when he
used the oats not a sign of mice work
was to be seen, and bis horses ate the
oats, straw and all, much more greedily
than ever before. This bit of informa
tion may be of use to many farmers,
who well know how destructive mice
and rats are to oats, either in stack or
mow."
Streak of lean and a streak of fat.
Have yon the right breed for it?
Lambs for Market.
At the annnal meeting of the New
Jersey state board of agriculture, J. 8.
Woodward, of Lockport, N. Y., advised
buying early in tbe summer young, large
sheep from the stock yards and cross
ing them with a strong thoroughbred
nun of the mutton breed. Then give
good pasture through the Bummer and
fall. When cold weather comes shear
them and put in a frost proof barn, feed
ing liberally, but judiciously, of hay
and ensilage, ground oats, corn and peas
mixed. Lambs sold in the New York
market in December, January, Feb
ruary and March averaged hiia from
seven to twelve dollars.

QUALITY IN DRAFT . HORSES.
It la Possible to Get Dotb Quality and
Quantity.
Our correspondent wrote as one who
knew whereof he spoke when he de
scribed the disastrous results from using
draft sires more distinguished for bulk
than quality. One cross of stump legged
sires "squared up the form and gave
size. The second cross increased bulk,
but at the expense of wearing qualities
in some instances. But the third cross
brought with it all the ills of "boggy"
hocks, round spongy bone, upright an
kles and shelly feet. Night no more
Burely follows day than this result at
tends the use of rough legged, obese,
"beefy" draft sires. The Gazette has
not ceased to cry alond against these
hulks of horseflesh set on post legs. To
that persistent thundering of " Weightl
weight!" it has answered, "Quality 1
quality?"
Granting the possible value of the
first cross of bulk only on our small
boned, spindle shanked, light waisted
mares, it has warned against the intensi
fication of this coarse legged, short pat
terned blood by a second cross, and has
times almost without number declared
that quality should be the prime requi
site. If associated with sufficient sub
stance, well and good, but with all their
getting it has uniformly advised Ameri
can draft horse breeders to get under
standing. Stall feeding of stallions
tends to soften tissues and cause degen
eracy, but especially does it make its
evil effects manifest in the condition of
the legs. The farmer who has secured
bulk in two or three crosses, at the ex
pense of the tough hoofs and flinty and
clean though light bone of his founda
tion mares, may well claim indulgence
while he meditates upon an ontcross to
the light but sound legged sire.
Quality and size are not incompatible;
this much has been so thoroughly proved
that further discussion is idle. The draft
horse must have bulk, strength, weight
in the collar, but with it he needs
leverage, elasticity and wearing joints.
Porous bone, meaty legs, "boggy" hocks
handicap horse and master. It is the
breeder's province to substitute flinty,
flat bone, clean limbs and bony hocks.
A hereditary tendency toward flabby
muscles, meaty legs, thick hocks and
stiff joints is not value received for the
service fee. Careful selection of Bonrd
sires with gun metal legs and clean,
limber joints, and judicious work to
harden the muscles, toughen the sine-s
and oil the joints is what every owner
of brood mares has a right to demand of
every stallioner. Quality first, bulk
afterward. Breeder's Gazette.
Russian Sheep Dog.
The vast steppes of Russia are in many
respects similar to the great plains of
our own northwest. The Scotch collie
in the northwest has suffered occasion
ally from the cold in our extreme
winters. To some extent the owtcher,
RUSSIAN SHKEP DOG.
or Russian sheep dog. has been substi
tuted for the faithful collie. Wherever
he has been thus tried, the owtcher had
proved to be the sheep owner's most
faithful friend and servant. We hope
he will be further experimented with, as
he promises to be a most valuable de
pendence for stock raisers.
The American Cultivator gives this
information about the owtcher:
Te old province of Ukraine, which is
now incorporated in the Russian gov
ernment district of Kiev, is an extreme
ly fertile country, but only sparsely pop
ulated. The greater portion of this ter
ritory consists of vast, slightly undulated
steppes which are watered by the Dnei-
per and its numerous tributaries. The
wealth of the inhabitants consists of
live stock, and particularly sheep, of
which enormous nocks are kept. One
of the largest landowners is Mr. Falz
Fein, and the number of sheep on his
runs is so large that he can only form
an estimate by the number of dogs
whicare required to guard them, and
there are generally 5,000 kept for that
purpose. On an average forty sheep are
apportioned to each dog; the total must,
therefore, reach the prodigious figure of
2,000.000.
These sheep dogs have a long coat,
which very often gets matted. The
color generally is a kind of gray, formed
by a mixture of black and dingy white
hair. The medium height is twenty
eight inches, and their tail is always
short, frequently carried very gayly,
and only sparsely coated. Sometimes
there exists only quite a rudimentary
trace of a tail. The breed is highly es
teemed in Russia, where it is known by
the name of the Owtcher.
Spring and Winter Wheats.
The winter and spring wheats are now
interchangeable, the former being easily
converted into the latter and the latter
into the former. Another classification
may be made with reference to the char
acteristics to assist in their arrangement
as follows: White, red and velvet chaff;
smooth and bearded ears; white, red and
amber grain; hard and soft grain. This
classification is by no means permanent
or satisfactory except in relation to the
smooth and bearded ears they are al
ways the same everywhere and in all
seasons, but the other characteristics are
subject to the influences of soil, climate
and methods of cultivation in so marked
a degree that they are not alike in any
two sections or states or even seasons in
the same region. In arid regions the
chaff, straw and grain are much lighter
in color, the grain much more flinty, the
chaff more fragile, especially on the
bearded varieties. Farmers' Review.
What Othen Sy.
The American Cultivator says: "We
do not see how any gardener on sandy
soil can dispense with some use of
clover.
The American Horseman says that the
big covered track at the Jewett farm,
where five-eighths of a mile of the track
is now under cover, has proven daring
the past winter a success.
