I'rofessor Fletcher further aay: Let us suppose we intend to plant Urge block of an uncertain variety Much aa Klc Her. There are two point to be considered when Helectlue a pol leuizer for KlefTer or nny other Belf sterile variety. These are simultaneous blooming and mutual ntllnlty. Com mon orchard practice has shown that the European pears, lis I'.arttett and tbe sand pear hybrids, as KlefTer, will fertilize each other regularly when they bloom together. Borne varieties will not fertilize each Other, though Llossomlng nt the same time. Kerr lias found that Wbltaker plum will not fertilize Wild (ioose, nor Will Early lied help Caddo Chief. Again, tbe iwillen of some varieties will give belter fruit than that of others when used on the pistil of self sterile or even elf fertile varieties. The first cut ahows the comparative size of Beckel when pollinated with KlefTer and with Lawrence pollen. Clapp pol linated with KlefTer was nlso larger than Clapp pollinated with Lawrence or Louise 1 tonne-, Katthlts crossed With Angoul.'ine were larger than Bart letta crossed with Sheldon. In aoine Cases no difference could be noticed, yet most of our standard commercial varieties will be likely to yield enough better fruit when planted with some varieties than with other to make a Study of this point worth the while.

We plant deep enough to permit the ground to be harrowed with a good drag. Any common harrow will do. though the teeth should not be ton ' long. Prg several times from plant ing time until the potatoes rome up.1 and there will be no need to make s liec" to dig out the weed by hand In June I saw niei.iv Instance Inst summer where more human lalnr was being' expendiM on a patch of half an acre of potatoes than l necessary to cultivkte crop of tci acre here In the "belt."

An old and run out or neglected as paragus bed can be best improved aft er the season for cutting I over by putting on a liberal dressing of manure In June or July and plowing It In, not taking much care to prevent breaking the root or to save seeding plant. The plants are apt to become root bound, and they will grow nil the bet ter for a little breaking up of tbe mat ted root. Keep the weeds out all the summer, and iu eurly spring or even In February, If the ground Is open, put on from (Mni pounds to half tou of good fertiliser to the acre. This will push It along to make a good growth, and It will be better If It Is not cut very freely that spring or not at all after the Urst of June.

Tomatoes need a beuchlike support, so tbat the vines can spread out to t tie sun and air and yet be held up from the rouud.

Aside from it value ns a fo age raie I an cxiH-cllcnt crop to grow on Held that are foul with weeds. The late (late at which the seed may be sown allow the weeds to get well started before the llnal preparation of the noil begins, they are further kept In check by the cultivation rc.iiircd for the crop during Its early growth, and later the rape plants shade the ground so com pletely ns to' keep the weeds down. Au excellent treatment for a foul Held I to plow thoroughly In late summer or rally nuliimn nn.l seed to rye or some other forage crop to be pastured off during the fall, winter or early bpriliK.

There I probably no place in tin United State where gypsum could Ik used to greater advantage with a lib eral hand than on the soil of Oregon provided the material could be obtain ed at anything like a reasonable fig ure. Its principal effect seems to be Hi power to set potash free from Its In soluble compound, making them avail able. Sforer, an authority, says, "It Is often of great use In regions when wheat I grown in alternation with clover, since by encouraging the growth of clover it acts as a manure for wheat." On tbe soils of western Oregon II could lie used to much advantage on account of the tendency of this soil to be weak In available potash. It would also serve to Improve their physical condlton by the particles thus making the soil more porous. In eastern Ore gon It would le of high utility a a cor recti ve for the hated black alkali. In western Oregon It should be sown In the Very early spring st the rate of 100 to l.3 pounds to the acre, prefera bly to encourage the growth of clover, the yield of which it not lufregueutly Increases Mi sr cent. As a corrective for the black alkali In eastern Oregon It would have to be used in much lar ger quantities, probably not less than one ton per acre, this dc(cnding some what iiMn the amount of alkali -prvt-ent Chemist U. W. Shaw. It Is now denied by high authorities that the lowest organisms feel any thing that can proierly be called pain, says the Chicago Kecord. In tbe ex periments of the late Professor W. W. Norman on the flounder and lower le cie reactions of these creatures against Injury do not indicate pain sensations st all. Certain motions which have hitherto In thi class of auimnl been regarded a denoting pain Professor Norman maintains are simply tbe Im mediate consequences of physical stim ulation. If a common earthworm be divided at Its middle transversely, only the posterior half shows those squirm ing nnd Jerking movements which seem to Indicate pain; the anterior half (con taining the brain) crawl ordinarily away. If each of these halves be halved, again the posterior segment of each squirms, while the anterior halves crawl away. This same process may be continued with precisely like re sults until the pieces are no longer large enough to crnwl Independently. Professor Norman's explanation af this striking phenomenon Is that the worm has two sets of muscular fibers, one longitudinal, causing tbe squirm ing and Jerking movements, and the other circular, which produces thej crawung. o gooi reason. However, i has yet been found to explain why In the posterior segments the former set should lie Initially stimulated and in the anterior the la Iter set. If a swim ming leech Ik? cut In two, both parts after a pause swim off as If nothing had happened. Other species of worms seem to belli ste the same results of mutilation, tbe anterior or brain part lieing regularly that undisturbed by the extraordinary stimulus. The ab domen of a hermit crab may be cnt In two without more than "a very slight response" from any remaining mov able organ. Mlllepc.l divided while walking do nt hasten or Jerk or stop, I but continue exactly In the line which they were taking. Irgon flies lose parts of their abdomen apparently with the greatest Indifference, and bees ; continue to ent when their abdomens j are cut awny.

At the Dairy Institute at Rpring-field, Hans., ProfcHNor Cooley aald: The feed does not affect she rlcbia' of tbe milk. You can not tell by tbs looks of milk how rich It Its. We cannot afford to run cows on half time. To get htKh grade uillk brush the cows before milking, and It Is advised by many that the udders be clipped. Manage to have the cows come fresh. so as to maintain a uniform suiihIt throughout the yiair. It Is claimed that summer silage will stop summer RhrltikaKe. Overall should lie clean. Don't bavs them stiffened with dairy starch. Don't make a atrnlncr do too much work. Have a freh one for every tet or dozen cow. Cool tbe milk and keep It at given temperatgre. Care, ch-anllne aud cold are tbe three "c's" of milk production. Tbe German dairymen have a stall which seem nearly perfect. The plat fora Is jiiHt the rlht length for the cow. and behind It Is a deep ditch of Six or eight Inches, with a ledge part way down, so that the cow In slipping off does not slip clear to tbe bottom. Tbe cows soon learn to stand out of tbe ditch and keep perfectly clean. Quick Work Columbia Mi ! Orogou Jbaa in digging time to see. peopla
