Both peat and unproductive black or peaty sand soils are more often deficient in potash than any other element, and pot ash can nearly always be ap plied to such soils at a decided profit. Some black soils are found to be more or less acid. Where there is strong acidity some form of basic lime, such as pulverized limestone, should be applied. On acid soils phosphoric acid is almost always needed in ad dition to limestone. Totash is usually a secondary need on such soils. Nitrogen is not necessary as a fertilizer on unproductive black soils, except in a few cases. Potash and phosphoric acid will remain in the soil until used (loose sands and gravels except ed), so there need be no fear of loss in making large applications of mineral fertilizers. A field plat test is the only sure method of determining the ferti lizer treatment needed, although the character of the vegetation is an indication. Chemical tests are sometimes t t . z f i t y $ an indication, but they are too 4 unreliable to be entirely depend- X ed upon to determine "fertilizer requirements. From Bulletin of Illinois Experiment Station. l.,..T..T,iti,T.J,t NEW DATA. ABOUT CORN. Shape of Ears Bears a Relation to the Yield. The superintendent of the Texas sub station at Temple, after a careful study of the relation of shape of ear to yield of corn, concludes that slight ly tapering parent ears give the high est yield. This is in accord with the results of experiments at the Ohio ex periment station, in which extremely tapering ears gave slightly higher re sults than cylindrical ears. High yields were associated with comparatively smooth kernels of slightly more than average depth and of medium horni ness. The yield increased with an in crease in the total weight of the ear as determined by slight increase in length, amount of grain and rather marked in crease in weight of cob. In experiments at the Ohio and Ne braska experiment stations it was found that the highest yields were ob tained with medium to medium long ears. Poorly filled butts and tips were more frequently associated with well filled butts than with well filled tips. The old score card placed much em phasis on good filling of butts and tips, but for several years past investiga tors have been getting away from this idea. It has been found that these characters when highly develop ed are usually so developed at the ex pense of more valuable characters, such as yield, constitution, etc. There appeared to be no relation between yield and shelling percentage and cir cumference and width or thickness of kernel. - Clover Seed Recleaned. Barron county, Wis., produces a large quantity of clover seed which in the past has been dumped upon the market as it comes from the huller. As a result a very low price has been realized. A county agent has organ ized a co-operative company to reclean the seed and put it on the market in car lots. This county has also organ ized a live stock exchange, .with the county agent's office as a clearing house. An explosive that is said to be twice as powerful as dynamite has been dis covered by an officer of the New York national guard. Nothing will explode it except fulminate of mercury. Some of it was packed in a twelve inch shell and fired at armor plate 1,000 yards distant, but it remained unexploded in spite of the terrific Impact The new explosive resembles wet brown sugar, is made up in sticks and can be kept under water for years without deteri oration. C. Monney, a farmer living near Oneida, N. Y., is reported to have de veloped a variety of potatoes that are practically without tops. They had few eyes to start with and for the past two years he has planted only those tubers which had practically no eyes. Only a few sprouts appear, but not withstanding this the variety is said to yield as well as others having large tops. The advantage of this variety, if there Is any truth in the report at all, would seem to lie in freedom from danger of frost and damage by bugs. The Pennsylvania department of ag riculture has been investigating a new method of combating the San Jose scale by means of a parasite which is said to destroy it. The parasite was discovered by Dr. J. S. Grim, in structor in the Keystone State normal college, who notified Professor Surface, state geologist The latter propagat ed the parasite and found that it de stroyed the scale insects. If the new method can be applied on a commercial scale it would mean the saving of millions of dollars to the fruit growers i of the country. AMD MOTE! Run Every Other Week MMDOWBR00K FARM Feed alfalfa to the hogs. Keep the .laying hens active. Give the colt needed exercise. It does not pay to send half-fat sheep to market. Change of feed occasionally serves as an appetizer. Fowls in confinement, to do well, need a variety of food. Concrete .floors in the barn help a great deal in saving manure. Sweet food for hogs is bettey than any that has fermented or soured. Only sound fruit and vegetables should be stored in the cellar for win ter use. Red clover in bloom Is not good for hogs, but when young it makes a fine pasture. An egg may be fertile and hatch and still the chick will not live because of lack of vitality. Strong brine, thickened with soft soap, makes a good mixture to rid cows and calves of lice. Do not haul waste products back to the farm from the creamery in the same cans used for delivering milk. A calf from a poor cow is a doubt ful proposition, but a calf from a good cow poorly raised is almost a crime, Animal feeding saves the cost of .hauling farm products to market; it creates a demand for the crops on the farm. Dont hurry the cows from the stable to the pasture or vice versa. Dogs have no place on a dairy farm to help in driving cows. One advantage in keeping sheep on the farm i3 that whenever they are kept the farm presents a heater and cleaner appearance. Never grease the hen that is set ting, as grease getting on the shells of ithe eggs will close the pores and smother the chickens. Horse breeding requires more capi tal, is more profitable if succesful and involves larger losses if not, than any other kind of stock breeding. Coarse, masculine-looking pullets never make the best layers. Select those whose heads have a distinctly feminine appearance and expression. Hearty eaters are most to be de sired for cows, and they may usually be selected while they are calves. You will find a dainty calf to be a dainty cow. The food properties of wheat bran and high grade . alfalfa meal are very much the same, though it is best to use both when available for variety's sake. Every farm ought to be equipped with a crowbar and a ten-foot iroo- tipped wooden spike for moving beery objects. They save time and take the piaoe of muscle. Build sttoe, grow less acres of corn, but utilize the whole crop In Its best form, and grow alfalfa on " the com acreage saved for a cheap, palatable home-grown balancer for corn. Just because an ear of corn is large does not necessarily make it the best for seed. See that the rows are straight from tip to butt and that the kernels are all well formed and plump. Let us not wait until spring -to make up our minds about what wo are going to do in the way of poultry raising. But in our planning, let us not neglect the present work in the poultry yard. The perfect bird in any variety or breed is very hard to find. Occasion ally we find some very fine specimens, but when we go over the birds from head to toe we are sure to find that something . is not Just as it should be.v Of course you have saved your best grain for seed. Next is to see that it is clean. Right here is where the fan ning mill pays big dividend. It in creases the crop, prevents foul woeda. and best of all makes better seed for next year.

And -all about him roll'd his lus trous eyes; When, turning round a cassia, full in view. Death, walking all alone beneath a yew And talking to himself, first met his sight. 'You must-be gone." said Death; "these walks are mine." Love wept and spread his sheeny vans for flight. Yet ere he parted said: "This hour is thine; Thou art the shadow of life, and as the tree Stands in the sun and shadows all beneath. So in the light of great eternity Life eminent creates the shade of death. v The shadow passeth when the tree shall fall. But I shall reign forever over all." Tennyson.
