Odo ndvantngo tlint tho buttor dniry

Iho fnrm wlicn ouly butter ls sold. At

is low. If ono cau buygrnin ub low iic
corditifly, bo is fnr butter olT Uiuti lio
would bo with Kfnin nt tho old prico;
but, liowever lowgrain 1s, fnrmorr nccd
to uso thclr brnlns lu buylng feed.
Thoao who nro uot well iuforraed oro
llnblo to serlous mistnkce. When ono
is buylng feed, ho should not ouly buy
foed but fcrtilizcr. It h prctty well
known tlint u ton of coltor.-ccd mcnl
contnins nbout $2o to 23 woclh of
plant food, as niuch ns a ton of inany
kinds of fcrtilizers. You can tako tlint
ton of cottou-Eccd incal and fccd it to
your cows. When hay is worth 10 to
812 per ton, your ton of cotton-sucd
menl is worth about 10 tor cow feed.
Thon your tnanurc pilo will, if all tho
liquid and solld porlions aro carofully
Bavcd, bo worth about $18 to $20 ruoro
for tlio colton-secd mcal. Souuds liko
a big stoiy, docsn't it? But it is just
what tho cxpcriment stations tell us.
Afraid to feed tho stufl? Well, try
lineccd mcol. Thoy don't tell quite so
big storlc8 about that, and it is per
fcctly 8afo. It cotts more than colton
secd racal, but comes noxt to it in ma
nurial and fceding valucs. A ton of it
ha8 a valuo of 21 as fortilizer, 30 to
34 as feed, and tho rnanurinl valuo
would bo about 15.
J. W. Snnborn said years ago that tbis
way of feeding fortilizer to tho cows
was eating your cako and having it,
too; ni.d it does conio about as near that
bb anything Iho farmcr gctB hcld of.
Tho only thing that beats it in tho
farming lino is growing clover and get
ting fortilizer out of tho air to feed
to your stock. It's away ahead of freo
eilver for helping tho fartncrs, and, if
Bryan would only go to talking it to
his farmur audiences, ho would do
thcm lots ruoro good than by anything
ho bas said.
You see a farmer uowadnys can't
afford to bo ignorant of such thinge.
Thero aro not mauy of them rich cnough
to afford such a luxury as ignorance.
Thero is no excuse at all aDy more for
being without tho knowledgo of sorao
of these simple principles of up-to-dato
farming. Prtrmors must learn. Kuowl
edge is power.
Useful JHcrohes.
Most farmers know aomethiug of tho
harmful microbes or bacteria, becauso
tho discoveries of scieutillc mon havo
Bhown that many of tho most fatal dis
eases aro tho result of tho action of
thoao organisms in tho buman body.
PeyerSj tuberculous consumption, dipli
therla, cholera, RD'l many ter dis
eases, aro fanyllurexatuples of this clnsB
of dieeases. So, too, all putrcfactlon
and fermentation are tho work of mi
croscopic organisms. Thoy scem to
oxist evorywhero in naturo, and have a
great deal to do with tho well-being or
destruction of all earlhly beings. White
many of them uro harmless, many
moro aro not only harmlcss but most
useful in various waye. Somo weeks
ago wo uoted tho fact that Prof. Conn
had proved that good and bad flavors
in buttor wero caused by bactria, and
that ho had devisud means to propagato
and dlsseminato a baoterium which
produccd a flno llavor. Now tho pa
pcrs aro dtscussing anothcr uso of bac
teria in agriculturo.
It is wu'l known that certain plants
havo power to tako nitrogen from tho
air and storo it up in their roots and
othor parts, eo that it becomos nvail
ablo to farmers for fertilizer. ThiB
power of theao planU is now known to
bo wholly duo to tbe action of bactoria.
Theso bactoria or microbes do not
work on tho roots of oats, wheat, buck
wheot,barley and graBS. But thoy do
oxUt, raultiply, and do tholr boneflcent
work upon tho roots of clover, pcas,
beans, votchcs, and all leguniinous
plants. This being tho caBe, it follows
that oven clovor and other lcgumcs
cannot acquire nitrogen from tho air
unless tho bactoria which do tho work
aro present. It is now known that ono
cause of tho failure of UieBO plants is
duo to tho absonco of gcrms of tho
epecial form of bacteria which does
this nitrogcn-gathering work. But it
has alsoboen found that if aBoil is des
tituto of tho propcr bactoria, thoy can
bo artiDclally introduced, and, as they
propagato veiy rapidly, their disaemi
nation ia not a vory difllcult raatter.
All that ia needed is somo convenient
mothodof acaitoring tho gerra8, apores
or secda of tho bacteria upon tho soll
whoro they aro needed. A crudo and
coBtly wny was to scatter boII from
flelds known to bo proporly inoculated
with tho noceesary bacteria, Whilo
this was effcctive, thero woro many
roaaona wby it was not profitablo or
practlcablo. It reraoved eood boII from
ono field, and thus injurcd it to beneflt
another, and was Impractlcablo to any
but wealthy farmers on accouut of tho
labor and exponso involved.
Now, howovor, Trofojsor Nobbo of
Saxony has introduced on entiroly now
method of inoculntlng ilolds with nl-
trogen-prodticlng, or, rather, accumu
latlng, bacteria. A 1 kinds of bactoria
aro plants or vogctablo organiams, and
will multiply exccedlngly fast if aupplicd
with tho propor couditions. Thoy aro
cultivatcd in laboratorlcs iu a jolly
liko Bubatance modo from a specios of
Boawecd. ProfcBsor Nobbo has timply
cultlvated or propngoted tho bactoria
of tho various dovors and othor lo
eutues, usingtho ordinaryagar-gdatlno
solutlon, and thon plneing onough to ln
oculato half ati acro in acarelully soaled
bottlo to sell to farmers. Ho hos namcd
this product " Nitragiu," and suggcsts
two woys of applying it. Ono is to di
luto tho Bolutiou with a stmill quantity
of watcr and with it to moisten tho
eeed to bo sown. Tho other is to uso
a lorgo quantity of wator and moistcu
about fifty pounds of oarth. This is to
dried and thon mixed with moro carth
and tho wholo scaltored over tho llcld.
This work may mean that formers,
oven Vermont farmors, may savo thou
sands of dollars by using lcguminous
crops for feod und green imuuring,
their euccessful growlh bclng iusurcd
by tho uso of commercial " Nitrogin."
Wo believo that ono reaeou why tho
horsc-bcan failed in this stato was ow
iug to the laek of tho propor bacteria
in tho 8o:l, and wo hopo thot this, and
not somothing moro difllcult to over
como, is tho cause of bo rauch fnilurc
in growing erimson clover. It may bo,
too, that failures in red clover ariso
from tho samo cause.
Good nnd Ponr IMouiiif,'.
During tho next sixty days moro or
lc68 plowing will bo dono upon hun
dreds of thoiisands of farms. Tho do
greo of skill with which this work is
dono will go vory far toward determin
ing tho yield of tho crops which
tho land will produco In tho com
ing year. Yet, plowing seems to
bo a very simplo oneration. Almost
unybody can do tho work, after a fnsh-
lon, and quite a largo proportion of tho
farmers scem to think that thcv, or
their bovs, or their hired men. cau do
ii well enough. Somo of theso peoplo
aro cxpeits in this lino of work, but
muny ot tncm laii very tar oeiow tno
aiandard which every plowman ought
to reacti. io uo tno plowing as it
should bo douo rcquires very closo at
tcntion and no small degrco of skill.
It is not eveiy ono who can do perfcct
work with tho plow, aud thero aro mul
titudcs of men who do notdo as well as
they know how. This is bad, but what
must be conBidered a worso feature of
the case is secn in tho fact that tho
great majorily of farmers do not ap
preciato the lmportance ofhivingtho
land plowed well. If they realized how
much depends upon haviug their work
dono as perfectly as possiblc, they
would learn more about tho mothods of
doing it and would miiko hasto to put
their knowledgo into practico. It is
thought, by mary, that poor plowing
can bo fully atoued for by extra work
with the harrow or pulvcrizer, but this
is an expensivo error. Tho ovils of such
plowiug cannot be wholly rectiOed, and
the man who will tlight this work will
not bo oxtreraely particular about tho
manncr in which tho succecding opora
tions of tillago are performed, Practi

Not ouly wcak and ailing men, but

Grcouo of 34 Ttmplo Piace, Boslon,

Tho weak and niling, becauso ho has
polnted out to them tho means of ro
covcring their health, Btrcngth and
vi .-or; thoso iu houlth, becauso ho has
showu tho rocks and quicksunds whero
muny a gullnnt ltfo burk has bccu
wrcckrd.
Dr. Grecno was listoncd to with al
most brcathloas ullontion by tho largo
audieuco of men, who filt that thty
wero hcaring tho words of truth anu
wisdom full from tho lips of ono as
cmiuent for his medical skill as ho is
distinguishcd for his discoveries in tho
domain of renndiea, and famcd for his
marvelous curcs. In fact, thero is no
physician in activo practico to-day so
well fltted, ao cmiuently qualifled to
discusa tho coudiliona brougbt about by
overwork, imprudeuco and exctases aa
Dr. Greeno. Ho hus mado tho cauaos
of tho loas of vitplity aud vigor in mcu
and tho conditions of dcbllity and pre
maturo decay tho study of his life, as
thoso who liBtcnid to him could casily
diecern.
Dr. Grecno graphically dcscribcd tho
grndual processes by which thoso in
poasestion of health and vigor reach n
condition of debility and nervous proB
tratioo, tho succesaivo stepannd stoges
of decay. Nothing can be moro iu
sidiotH than tho approach of tbis foe of,
human happiness, tho prematuro decay
of tho physical powors. It is tho more
insidious from tho fact that it does not
always manifest itself in pbyfiical
forma, but often in montol deterioration,
bcginning with melancholia and by
phochoudria8is. Thero is a loss of
spirils, tho eubjcct is ovorshadowed by
gloom, and there is au over present ap
nrehonaion of impending disaster. Tho
lutimato connection of tho body and
miud is thus shown, tho decay of tho
physical powers ilnding its Urst mani
fcstation iu mental disturbances.
Ab tho malady makes progress the
physicol disorders Bhow themselves.
Tho body becomoj weak. Thoro is a
consciousness of loss of vigor und vital
ity that cauaes tho utmoat ularm; the
heart bccomes affectcd functionally,
palpitation ensucs on tho least exertiou.
Dyspepsia is a feature which frequently
introduces itself a this slago and with it
come attacks of dizzineBs accompanicd
by drowBiucss and au indisposition to
txertion. In timo stomach, ltver, kid
neys and bowels becomo functionally
disordered. Tho subject sighs often,
there ia a difllculty of breathiug at
timee, pain in tho rightorleft shoulder
or botb, and somctimes in tho chcst aud
abdomcn.
Tho ncrvousness increaaes with
every atago of progrcss, and tho most
teartui imasinings arc tnc rosuit. rnoy
nroduce wakefulneBS at night, or when
sleop comes dreams and visions onsue.
Comnlete devitalization follows, ond
tuougti tne victim may ncar un braveiy, '
aud uee overy efforl to conctal from ,
his rncnus tne tact tnat no is navinc l
tho pcnally for his errors and indis- I
crotions, it is all too apparent to tncm
that thero is something wrong with
him. Tho complcxion has lost its
healthful tint, tbe color has gone from
tho cheebs, tno skin has becomo of a
dull Uadcn huo or tikon on u sickly
yellowiah tinge that is unpleasant to
look upon; tho oye naB necome dull
and lifeless, its brigbtnces and sparklo
gone, tlio Btop na8 lost its springy elas
ticity and becomo feeblo and lagging,
tbe taco hus lost its vivncity and much
of its exprossion, and tho orcct pose of
the lortu can no moro no maintoincd
savo by strong physical effort and dc
termiuation of tho will, neither of
which can be long suatained.
Naturo is compelliug tho victim to
honor iho drafts ho has mado on hcr in
tho days of his health and vigor. In
tho prido of his physicol powor ho mado
an overestimato of the strength of his
vital resources, and now ho would uivo
all ho is worth for tho privilego of be
ginning all over agaio. Repentanco
has come, and on overwhclming regrot
that he had not tho ccmmon eonso and
the prudenco to livo rationally, and in
harmony with thelaws of his being and
those of" soclety.
But how much IncreuBed is tho ca
lamily if at this timo tho victim of ira
prudenco and indiacrellon is engaged
to raarry. With shattered nerves, a
conatitution dovitalized, a prey to mel
ancholia and tho blues, without hopo,
can ho contcmplote tho obligalion to
which ho has commilted himstilf with
out droad? Impossiblo. With the
conBciouBue88 of his condition tho obli
galion adds to his misery, and increases
his misfortuno a thousandfold.
But all is not lost. Thero is still
hopo, atill a road to recovory for oven
tho mott desperato case. Dr. Greono
now turncd to tho bright side of tho
piclure and painted that in euch glow
inu colora that thero was no furthor
roaeon for any ono to despair. Dr.
Grecno has made this condition of
weaknee8, of montal and physical de
bility tne atuay oi tiis lilo. PosseBsod
of a brillinnt and pcuotrativo mind, an
indetatlgauiuty in rcsenrcu and Invee
tigatlon, ho has eucceeded in diocovor
inc the truo remedlcs for tho rcstora-
