Men and women at sixty years, like
horses of twenty, should run out to
grass.
The primary election system in a
kind of King road drag for our political
highways.
City advantages are, as a rule,
bought at an expense of frenh air, (rep-
dom and contentment.
The rattle of hard <■:-! do>vu tlie
cbute Into th« cellar Is the Hy In the
ointment of our summer's sweet eon-
lent.
The degree of culture a:id retiueiuent
attained by a nation or individuals is
fairly well expressed in the care and
regard which they bestow upon their
aged and dependent.
Many is the man who can number
his acres by the hundreds and thou-
sands who is a bankrupt when it comes
to the question of character and having
the respect and love of the members of
his own family.
The cost of laying a line of tile
across an acre of land, which appro',
inately is IL'.O rods square, is Just
about equal to what one good crop of
corn ought to fetch from the same
amount of land.
A good many men manifest slight in-
terest In the danger of physical or
nervous breakdown until they them-
selves have suffered a stroke. It is a
ease in which we are loath to profit
from the experience of our fellows.
Some men are known by the com-
pany they keep and some by the con-
dition of their back yards.
Some idea of the extent to which the
breeding of thoroughbred poultry Is
carried Is obtained from the sale of a
White Plymouth Rock cock the other
day for an even $1,000.
A simple yet effective method of
testing the purity of olive oil is said
to be the subjecting of it to a freezing
temperature. If it congeals or freezes
it is evidence that it has been adulter-
ated with lard.
The farmer does not need to be old
In experience to appreciate the fact
that the price of many things he buys
goes up by telegraph and conies down
by wheelbarrow communication or
something slower.
There is many a fellow who would
not knowingly tell a lie or steal a cent
from his neighbor who would not hesi-
tate a moment at loading his bogs up
with buttermilk or soft coal just before
taking them to market.
In a general way hired help appreci
ate the same kind of treatment at the
hands of their employer that the latter
would like were he In their place. This
may require the exercise of a little Im
agination, but it is well worth while.
The mourning dove's nest Is a very
simple and hastily constructed affair.
In building it the two co-operate, the
male bringing most of the material and
his mate putting it In place, the job
often being finished in the course of a
few hours.
Both city and country women would
be benefited could they exchange places
a few weeks out of every year. The
former would get needed outdoor air
and exercise, while the latter would
be benefited by a change from work
that Is' at times long continued and
somewhat monotonous.
Intelligent management consists just ■
as much in stopping damage and pre
venting waste and deterioration of j
property as in those activities which I
have for their aim the accumulation or j
Increase of property or wealth. It is
for this reason that the painting of the
farm residence, outbuildings and ma-
chinery is both Justifiable and in the j
long run profitable.
\^ieti the weeds are small and the ,
soil mellow there Is uo tool which is so
effective in destroying them as an or |
dlnary stiiT toothed garden rake, while
the amount of ground that can be cov- j
ered is nearly double that by the ordi- I
nary hoe. Under similar conditions
there Is no tool which for field culture
surpasses the riding weeder, the points
of advantage In both tools being iden j
tleal.
Que who has given the method 11 j
thorough test states that fresh eggs j
may be very effectually sealed so as to
keep from late summer to spring by j
simply placing them In a wire basket j
and submerging In a kettle of boiling
water for ten or fifteen seconds and
then quickly removing. This seems to
cook a very thin layer of albumen,
which hermetically seals the egg and
Insures its keeping properties.
Illinois corn raisers who have had
considerable experience with the tool
state that the surface or knife culti-
vator enables them to produce a 10 per
cent larger yield of corn than they get
by using the old four or six shovel
plow
One year with another an apple crop
will pull on an orchard as heavily as
does a crop of wheat or oats. For that
reason the orchard sli >uld lie mulched
and given all the fertilizer possible in
the shape of barnyard manure or the
raising of clover.
While the life of the habitual mover
is subject to many trials and troubles,
he is at least freed from the anxiety
and nuisance connected with the gar-
ret accumulation of half worn duds
and shaky furniture. Like the run-
ning horse jockey, he alms to reduce
his luggage to the lowest possible
point.
The government will receive the
.cordial approval of agricultural and
truck garden interests in its efforts to
smash the fertilizer trust. While the
owners of the rich black soils of the
west may be indifferent to the opera-
tions of this organization, the question
involved is one that comes very close
home to the farmers of most of the
eastern states.
Nature is an expert mathematician,
showing wonderful ability in problems
of chance. Ages ago she figured out
j that to bring a very few baby fry cod
| tc maturity the mother cod would have
i to product' millions of eggs every sea-
! son. In like manner she knew that to
( fetch a very few seeds of the maple
| or elm to full growth hundreds of
| thousands of the little flyers would
| have to be produced by the parent tree.
The foresight we see displayed on all
sides Is marvelous, revealing an ever
present, ever active and supreme intel-
ligence.
LOCAL MILK AND MEAT l!WF*tTIOX.
With Increased knowledge of bac-
teriology and a corresponding appre-
ciation of tin) Important part which
germ life occupies in the existence anil j
spread of different diseases, special j
emphas;s is coming to lie placed upo:i j
the Importance and necessity of hav |
Ing food supplies, and particularly mllU I
and meat products, free from contain- j
inatlon by disease germs. A thriving |
western city with which we are oc j
quainted which has gradually evolved
from a quiet rural hamlet to a bu *"n™ j
manufacturing center has lately <: < 1 I
ed or. an inspection of nil milk and |
meat which are to be sold in the corpora- I
tlon. The cay council was led to take
this action a result of the discovery
of a considerable number of tubercu-
losis eases and the discovery that some
diseased animals wen- being killed for
the local market, eight hogs which the
home butcher was too busy to handle
being killed and dressed in a local
packing plant which was under gov-
ernment inspection, it ticing found that
one of the eight hogs was badly dis-
eased. The incident cited simply goes
to show that the day is not far distant
when a sentiment touching the danger
to public health from contaminated
sources of food supply will be aroused
to the point where- it will Insist on the
careful inspection of these two Impor-
tant food products—milk and meat.
And there is no place this gospel needs
preaching more than lu the smaller
cities all over theeonntry whose dairies
and slaughter houses have not as yet
been placed under official Inspection.
While some states provide for the kill-
ing of all dairy animals found affected
with tuberculosis, the matter is usual-
ly left as a matter of option to indi-
vidual communities, white in none of
them, so far as we know. Is there pro-
vision for de general inspection of
beef and pork and a scientific examina-
tion of dairy herds. The- day Is near
at hand when there will be a county or
district official whose duty It will be to
look after the meat and milk inspec-
tion of ever) town in his territory.

The latest thing we have come across
in the lino of au offensive anil defen-
sive agricultural organization is :i
poultry vigilance association, and,
strange enough, the need for this did
not arise in Texas, Missouri or Ken-
tucky, where chicken stealiug is by
some classes considered an art, but in
a prosperous north Iowa community.
As its name indicates, the purpose of
the organization is to detect and pun-
ish chicken thieves, there being a
standing reward of $50 for lnformatiou
leading to the arrest and conviction of
any guilty party.
Experiments are now being made in
which a cement tile is being used in
place of the ordinary dralntile. While
It Is toj early to speak authoritatively
as to the durability of the cement prod-
uct, the durability of cement when put
to other uses would seem to indicate
that it would prove entirely satisfac-
tory in this particular. Where a suit-
ply of sand is available the cement tile
can be produced at about one-fourth
the cost of the ordinary tile. We would
be pleased to report the experience
which any of our readers may have
had with this new kind of tiling.
Th
tions gives promise of being especially
valuable along the- line of testing the-
value of different kinds of corn, grain
and grasses that are at present grown,
and Inter the introduction of new ra
rietics, the conducting of feeding ex
peritnents and the putting to practical
test of the many suggestions that grow
out of the state work. The lino of ex-
periment proposed is to be carried on
under the direction of the state author-
ities, who will receive the co-operation
of the county board of supervisors. In
the writer's home county work of this
kind is to be undertaken, the board
having set aside a certain sum for the
prosecution of the work. This year the
seed corn that has been planted in the
county is to be given a thorough test
and an oracular demonstration given of
the advantage and disadvantage of

A piece of legislation that bids fair
to be productive of Immense good to
the agricultural and horticultural inter-
ests of the country was passed last
winter as an amendment to the Hatch
bill of 1887. This amendment was pro-
duced by Congressman Adams of Wis-
consin and provides for assistance to
the state experiment stations to the
amount of $5,000 for the first year and
$2,000 in addition to this amount until
the limit of $15,000 Is reached. The
funds thus made available for the state
experiment work come at a very op-
portune time, when there Is scarcely a
station but has numerous practical ex-
periments and tests which only require
additional funds for their necessary
execution.

Increased interest in practical forestry
is to lie found in the planting of large
wnste are,is in the eastern states, par
tlcularly Pennsylvania, to forest trees
—chestnut, red oak, hickory, basswood,
white, rod and Scotch pine and Euro-
pean lurch. These lands, from which
the virgin forests have been cut, be-
long largely to coal and railroad com
panies and are, as a rule, too hilly for
the prosecution of extensive ngrlcul
turnl operations, but the scarcity of
material for this has suggested the pos
slblllty of putting these heretofore
waste anil valueless lands to a prue
tleal and definite use. One company,
desiring to take advantage of the as
slstnnce offered by the forestry bu-
romi of the department of agriculture,
has applied for au examination of a

the cmr.r d\m.f.ii to orchards.
Several years' experience in caring
for a large orchard loads us to believe
that there .is no enemy ot' the apple
tree that at all compares with the little
white borer which works lu the trunk
at and just below the surface of the
ground and whose presence is usually
indicated by the sawdust-like excreta.
The trees should lie carefully examined
at intervals during the summer and the
borers dug out with a sharp knife.
Where the borer Is in its second year
and cutting it out would necessitate
too large a wound for the tree, a wire
or piianl twig may be Inserted and the 1
pest killed in the tree. It is well in
making the search to scrape the trunk
carefully to au Inch and a half below
the surface of the ground, as the hole
out of1 which the brown dust is dis-
charged sometimes gets covered up,
thereby concealing the presence of the
borer. Keep the borer out of your or-
chard, and you will bo practically as-
sured that It will be thrifty and vigor-
ous, with very few trees missing as
the years go by.
ACHES Ol' St NFI.OWBBS IN ILLINOIS.
There are a number of farmers In
southern Illinois who have raised a
few acres of sunflowers for two or
three years past. Iowa will see a
farm of thl character for the first
time this year. The land devoted to
the culture of the sunflowers consists
of five acres, the seed having been
planted with a corn planter, the crop to
be cultivated and tended the same as
If It were corn. The proprietors have
contracted their entire crop to a seed
house for front $1.75 to $2 per hundred-
weight. The seed is used as stock food
and Is fed to parrots A good oil Is
made from the seed, while the stalks
may bo used for kindling.
