Etncation in Farmin*. Horace Greeley said that he left the farm because there were no books or pai>ers treating on the laws on which the science of agriculture was based, or something to about that effect. We have no doubt that he often thought he would have stayed on the farm If he could have had some of the knowl edge about farming that used to have a place In the Tribune In after years, but we are not so sure about It. Even In those days there was more theoretical teaching of farming than of any prac tical knowledge that would reduce ag riculture to an exact science, and we think If lie had been on the farm and tried some of the methods advocated In the Tribune his language might have been as emphatic as any that he used In political campaigns. But since that dnte agricultural colleges and ex periment stations have done much to educate the farmers and the farmers’ sons, theories have been practically tested, methods have been so well studied that, under certain conditions, the results are almost as certain as mathematical demonstrations, ma chines have been Invented to do much of the hard labor, and plants or the farm animals can be fed as scientifical ly as the machinery, and Is sure to pro duce certain effect from certain expen diture of power.—Exchange. Putter Makins:. If the war between milk producers and contractors drives some of those who used to make butter a quarter of m ago back to trylug It again, many of them will find that they can not make butter of the kame quality as they have been buying since they began to sell their milk, or of such flavor as they think they used to make. Their taste has been educated up to a standard that but few could reach then, and most of those only iu Juue and September. But we think this trouble Is likely to be the cause of the starting of more co-operative creameries, cheese factories, auil perhaps condensing fac tories the coming season. Aud we fear there are not enough graduates from our dairy schools to take charge of them all. When they can be found they should be given good wages.— American Cultivator. Biiaar Beet Pulp for Cows. At the Watsonville (Cal.) factory su gar beet pulp sells all the way from 23 to 50 cents per ton. As it can be held a long time iu the silo and Is fed to best advantage when old. It Is available tho entire year. According to notes col lected by R. A. Pearson, of the dairy division at Washington, published In a recent bulletin, the fresh pulp Is piled or placed In a silo. This silo Is very crude. It also costs very little. The pulp Is very soft when first put In and general ly settles considerably. Of course the top layers decay, and after a time the entire rnnss lx covered with a protecting layer three to (lx Inches thick. In a few months the Individual pieces of beets, originally two or three Inches long and quite slender, are broken down, and the material reminds one of cold mush, grayish brown In color. Three tons of the fresh pulp make about one ton when cured. Smut In Grain. The treatment of seed grain by dip ping for about ten minutes iu n solu tion of one plut of formalin In twenty- five gallons of water, to prevent smut, lias proved so effectual and so cheap that no farmer has an excuse for fall ing to try It. The above amount should be enough to treat alsiiit fifteen bushels of seed, or more If after a bushel has been soaked it Is allowed to drip Into anol tier barrel or tub while the next lot Is being soaked. The formalin Is not dangerous or disagreeable to handle, though not safe for animals to drink. The same treatment Is advised by potatoes to prevent the scab. Corn in Po-lc. One of the great problems In profita bly carrying on the hog industry Is to secure the large gains from a bushel of corn that nt oue time It was thought Impossible, but lx now being proved al most dally. While ordinary good feed ing lx eight to ten pounds gain, superi or feeding brings fifteen pounds. We find the report recently made by C. G. Neff, of Ohloi that by careful feeding he made an average on a bunch of 500 hogs of fifteen pounds eight ounces gain for a bushel of corn, and after the second period a gain of fifteen and three-quarter pounds per bushel was made.—American 8wlneberd.
