Reaanlaar aa A. Parana. Ded.
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.

Is continually increasing, and yet the

Gruaam far Orrgoa Soil.
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

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. Other Instances are.

Dairy Polata.
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.
