Steel wagon roads, as advocated by Mar
tin Dodge, state road commissioner of
Ohio, are likely to have a thorough trial in
several states this year. These roads con
sist of two rails made of steel the thickness
of boiler plate, each formed in the shape
of a gutter live inches wide, with a square
perpendicular shoulder half an inch hich
then an angle of one inch outward slightly
raised. The gutter forms a conduit for the
w ate! , and makes it easy for the w heels lo
enter or leave track. Such a double track
steel railroad. 10 feet wide, filled in le
twee n with broken stone, macadam size
would cost about $i,(Nio as aga'nst ..0mi
per mile for macadam roadbed of the same
w idth, but the. cost of a rural one.-track
steel road woo'd be only about $"J,:iM
mile. It is is said that such a road would
last much longer than stone and that one.
hore will draw on a steel track twenty
times as much as on a dirt road, and live
times as much as on macadam.

On Thursday afternoon of last week a
fire, supjiosed tohave been caused by a de
fective flue, broke out in the residence of
Stephen Dimond, of Summerhill, and so
rapid was the progress of the flames that
the building and all the household goods
were consumed. A house adjoining, ow n
ed by Mr. James Plummer and occupied
bv Lewis White was also destroyed. Owing
to the prompt work of the neighbors, most
of the household good's of Mr. White were
saved, but some in a damaged condition.
There w as fHJ( Insurance on the property
destroyed, w hich ill not begin to cover

The Firmrrn' Innlllnte.
At the farmers' institute held here on
Thursday of last week, the following is the
most important part of the proceedings.
The question how to abolish Canada
thistles was answered by Col. Woodward,
who said the proper way is to cut them off
continually deprive them of their lungs.
Mr. Joseph Farabaugh advocated pull
ing the plants out w ith a pair of pincers.
Hon. A. A. lJarker gave his experience,
detailing how he had er.deavc.red to dig
them out. burn them off, and put salt on
them and liually gave up.
Mr. Thomas L.Jones, who bought the
farm from Mr. Harker, pulls them.
Mr. MeCormick said he had known them
to be killed by covering with straw and
and letting it remain for several years.
Dr. Ilothrock has known them to be
killed near the sea level by going over the
path frequently with a lawn mower; but
in high altitudes he believes it is harder
to keep ihem under.
Secretary Edge cautioned people to burn
straw in which fruit trees had been re
ceived from New York.
Mr. Wert, had killed them by salting
the sheep on the patch frequently.
"What is the cause of blasted oats?''
Dr. Ilothrock explained that this is pro
pagated by spores body that has no
embryo. All smuts come from infected
seed follow i rig up the stem from the root,
and breaking down the kernel. Soak oats
for twenty four hours in liver of sulphur
potassium sulphide,) one to one and one
half pounds in twenty-five1 gallons of
water in a wooden vessel, stir frequently;
three bushels of oats can be placed in this.
This can be used three times for nine
bushels of oats. For stinking smut, pass
through water of 110 degrees, and subse
quently of l:.VJ degrees. This is beneficial
for the oats, and increases the production.
A query with regard to blueweed was
answered by Dr. Iiothrock, who cautioned
people to beware of it and pull it out.
The yellow daisy was described; it is a
little sunflower. Mr. W. Ii. Gregg, of
'alien Timber, says he killed the plant by
overing it with coal tar.
Does continued cutting of potatoes
cause them to run out?" Secretary Edge
oes not believe that potatoes are running
out. Pololoes are not roots; they are
tubers.
A. question relative to the slacking of
lime Is slacking by air the same as bv
water? was answered by Prof. Hamilton
that the effect is the same. If left exposed
loo long, it becomes carbonate of lime.
He prefers to plow lime under, but it will
work down.
Mr. Auselm Weakland had plowed lime
down in the fall, and planted corn ou the
ground in the spring, and got no corn.
On clayey soils slacked lime will have a
tendency lo keep the particles apart; but
in sandy soil it may cause it to adhere.
The effect on vegetable mold is to render
it insoluble, which may have been the case
with Mr. Weakland's crop; but the lime
will eventually act. Lime without some
thing to act on is useless. The best rule is
to lest a small portion of his farm, and if
lime is found beneficial, he can tLen apply
it. Get pure lime. All lime is not pure
oine contains carbonate of magnesia.
which is injurious. This is produced from
limestone containing cement.
At the afternoon session Colonel Wood
ward explained the Chautauqua Course of
Heading.
Secretary Edge repeated his talk of
Wedne-day on the analysis of fertilizers.
Profes-or Hamilton ta'ked on clover
oinmoii and crimson. Clover is one of the
heapest of fertilizers. A gentleman dried
at a temperature of 1-detfrees the product
of an acre of ground, and had l.!10 pounds;
the roots, dried, weighed 1.418 itounds.
This would represent an amount equal
doub'e the weight of air-dried product.
Clover takes carbon from the air-dried
jr.,"lu2t. Clover takes carbon from the
air. atid places about as much in the sou
as it leaves above the ground.
Clover also absorbs fret nitrogen from
the air a power w hich no other ulant
possesses. Nitrogen is worth from fifteen
cents to cighteeen cents per pound. After
taking off two crops of hay the roots on an
acre w ill contain one hundred pouuds of
nitrogen, and as the last crop would con
tain one hundred pounds, if you turn down
the clover the second year, you place in
the soil for plant lood t'.fi worth of nitro
gen. Crimson clover is a plant you can
,-ovv iu June and July, and it will rinen in
May. It is an annual, and has to be sown
for each crop. Crimson clover sown iu
cornfields at last working will cover it in
tin; w inter. Some people sow in stubble
fields. Seed must be only one year old or
it will not grow.
Prof. Hamilton, in reply to a query as
lo Canada peas, said he believed it a
splendid plant. Sown with oats it makes
a splendid food for cattle.
Peine asked about uasturing crimson
clover iu the fall, he said he would not do
so. although it could lie done. He does
not believe in pasturing. He keeps his
cows in the stable.
Mr. Thomas gave a flattering account of
his experience with crimson clover sown iu
corn last summer.
Prof. Hamilton explained hovv clover
may be made to "catch"' by top dressing
the ground with barnyard manure or other
fertilizer.
Colonel Woodward spoke on "Parnyard
Manure." M anure carelessly kept in the
barnyard will fire-fang. If put on the
lield it will not lose from that cause.
Mr. E. E. Urich, of Monroe county,
poke on "Fertilizers."
Mr. Ulrich, being asked how he liked
Jersey cows, replied that he liked them
well; but he had known Guernseys better.
Test the milk of youi cows with a milk
tesier.
'Has any one had experience with win
ter oats ? Mr. L Inch said that he had
once and only once, lie Old not liutiK it
could be raised in this high latitude.
He was asked about hollow horu and
said that he did not believe there is such a
thing as hollow hoiu.
M r. MeCormick contended that there Is
such a thing as hollow horu. and that he
had seen it cured by boring a hole in the
horn and interjecting a mixture of salt
and black pepper, in equal parts, therein
The application of turpentine to the base
of the horn is said to produce the same
result
The subject of dehorning cattle was next
discussed ;ro and rim.
"What kind of winter a p pies are the liest
to graft iu this latitude?" was discussed
at length. The Northern Spy, Paid win
King of Tompkins county. Long Island
Greening, and others were suggested as
good keepers.
Mr. Ulrich, being asked what kind of
cows paid liirn best in his experience of
darying, would not advise fancy prices for
thoroughbred cattle, as often others were
as good, seven-eights blood being pre
ferred.
Mr. Ulrich believes in applying lime by
manuring the ground, spreading, plowing
dow ii. and applying lime on the top of the
ground.
Mr. Thomas announced that if a proper
place can be secured for holding it, another
institute will be held in the south of the
county.
Mr. MeCormick said that Johnstown
people would welcome an institute, and
he thought a suitable hall could be pro
cured.
Mr. D. S. Yoder thought likewise, and
agreed to look the matter up.
The lei-tureof Dr. J. T. Iiothrock. in

ject.
The Democrats of Hastings did nobly
on election day haying swung that town
into the Democratic column by safe ma
jorities. It once was the other way but
the Democrats now claim that it is Demo
cratic to stay.
A great many people who graft stone
fruits, such as cherries and plums, wonder
why they have such poor success. The
cherry and plum trees start their sap very
early and the grafting Is then less success
ful. We have the authority of an old and
experienced nurseryman for the statement
that if cherries and plums are grafted
earlv In the Spring, while the frost is yet
In the ground and before the sap starts.
they will grow as easily and readily as
pears and apules. Try It If you Intend
grafting any of the stone fruits.
