Much time is lost by drawing small kind* Many times have I seen farm ers going to town with a load of wheat of only SO or -4<» bushels. I can remem ber when a boy we had to draw our wheat and oats to market a distance of 10 miles. Even on good roads we con sidered 30 bushels of wheat and CM bushels of oats a good load. Xow we draw 80 bushels of wheat and don't consider it any too much. Where there is a large quantity of stuff to market a third horse pays well. You can then put on 100 bushels of wheat and 200 bushels of oats. One man can do tho work, an extra trip is saved, and the third horse iioi>s nothing but draw grain. It will take one horse to draw the wagon and the other two horses to draw grain. A great many loads of logs and bolta are drawn past our house every day in the winter time. It Is interesting to notice the difference in the size of loads. Some, with a good team and a long distance to haul, will have ou a couple of small logs, while a neighbor with no l»etter team will pile ou 10 or 12 logs as large. What a lot of time is wasted here! Frequently large load ing is overdone, but more frequently small loading Is overdone. One of the handiest things we have on our farm is a large flat rack. 7'j feet wide ami I<> feet long, with a tight, smooth floor laid over it. We use this on our low wheel, wide tire wagon. It stays ou all the time, and we use it for nearly everything. It has a 2 by 3 strip nailed around the outer edge to keep loads from slipping off. It is the best thing for drawing in hay or grain that I ever saw. We can put on some monstrous loads of hay, and it is no trouble to put on 60 (lozin of wheat, or all that a large team can handle. It looks like a flat car while empty, and the old fashioned rack looks like a toy beside it. Large loads of hay pay well. They save sev eral extra drives to and from the field. Besides, it does not take any longer to clean up the bottom of the load from a large one than It does from a small one. So t i fte is saved in two ways here. Saving time means lots of mon ey sometimes in drawing hay. It may mean the saving of large quantities from being spoiled by getting wet. I have often wished for an extra day to finish up the hay. Ilad 1 used large loads I might have saved a good deal from getting wet. These things mean business to every farmer. The time is here when tiie farmer must use more business in liis business, writes I. N. Cowdrey in The Country Gentleman. FnrclnK Rliulmrb In the Cellar. Horticulturist Fred W. Card of the Rhode Island station, in summing up his experience in forcing rhubarb, ex presses a desire to impress upon ev ery one who has a garden with rhu barb In it the fact that he and his fam ily may be enjoying in February and March of next year a more beautiful product than ever grows lu the open ground. To do it lie will need to trans fer a few roots to a dark corner of the A OOItVER IN UnUHAKB. cellar after they have frozen In the fall, packing a little tine mellow earth about them, and then simply see that the plants are kept moist. Whoever owns a garden with no rhubarb in It should see that some is planted there fori hwltli. A warm cellar will hasten the crop, but a moderately cool one will give a finer product and probably a I letter yield. The length of time between planting and harvesting varies from less than three weeks to more than two months, depending chiefly upon the temper:*ture. Allowing the roots to freeze In the field will greatly fa cilitate forcing. Large roots should yield five to ten pounds per plant, and every ten ounces of that yield will make a delicious pie. The color of the cooked product will be much brighter if it is placed upon the stove in cold water, and it will be sweeter if thu sugar is added Just before It is eaten. AKTrlotiHnral Brevities. The resultw from the continued ex periments of the Rhode Island station appear to indicate that many farmers might find the use of lime ou their lan a paying financial operation, eveu though the first cost of the Investment seems to them forbiddingly great. J. 11. Hale of fruit growing fame says there is less danger from Injury to the trees by freezing in winter when the soil is given frequent cultivation during the growing season and then a cover crop grown to cover the soil In the winter and to plow under to add humus to the soil the next year Thorough fall cultivation seems tc be the only practical means yet known of destroying wireworms in the soil. Sweet corn, if allowed to remain ou the stalk and cut and put In a shock before being injured by frost, will keep fresh for a considerable time, sayi John Ilobson in American (iardenlng.

Recommended For England Pnslurvi—llent y S««dlu». Seeing an iuquiry in a western paper In regard to the desirability of sowing Kentucky blue grass upon pasture laiul reminds The American Cultivator that not only those making the Inquiry, but many farmers in New England, would find an advantage in doing so if they did not feed the tield too hard in the spring. The Cultivator says: This grass, known to many here by the name of June grass, or botanieally as I'oa pratensis, is one of the best pas ture grasses, not only making a thick and heavy sod and standing drought better than most others, but also one of the earliest grasses to start and fur nish good pasture in the spring. In this lies the danger if it is sown on old pastures. It looks so green that the first year the farmer is apt to turn his cattle upon It before it is well rooted, and it is pulled up rather than bitten or gnawed so closely that the roots die before other grass comes to protect it. Scratch the old pasture over with a sharp toothed harrow or score it with the disk harrow and sow from one to three bushels of seed to the acre or one bushel of that and one of redtop and keep the stock off until they have made a fair 'arrowtli ami the wild grasses have begun to grow, and the next year they can be fed much earlier, having looted well, and there will be a good permanent pasture. Of course a top dressing of the pasture so treated with fine manure or a good fertilizer like bone and i>otash or wood ashes would be an improvement if one had the means, but even without that the pas ture would nearly double in feeding capacity. June grass makes a good, tine hay If cut early, but its yield when alone is not enough to make it a profitable grass, and, though often sown with clover and orchard grass. It is at its best for hay even before they are, yet if we were sowing them we would add a bushel of June grass or Kentucky blue grass to the seed. If to the bushel each of redtop and blue grass were added one peck each of perennial rye grass and tall oat grass and five pounds sweet vernal gra»s, it would make al most an Ideal pasture, good enough for a lawn. In fact, this would make a good lawn grass, to which we would add nothing more but live pounds or more of white clover. Some may consider the above too heavy seeding for pasture or lawn. Imt we believe in heavy seeding for both, and those who think it too much or too expensive can reduce the amounts. ClarlfyluK Rorirlinni Sirup. The quality of sorghum sirup is de termined by the more or less perfect separation from the juice of the im purities which are solid and of those which are in solution. The method of clarification found preferable by A. A. Denton in his investigations, conducted for the agricultural department, into the making of sorghum sirup Is to set tle cold, iiiued and clayed juice, draw off and heat the settled juice, clay and TAXKS FOB COLD AND lIOT SETTLING, settle it, and again draw it off, then evaporate it. These processes are clearly shown in the cut, the raw Juice being limed, clayed and settled cold in settling tank A, the settled juice being drawn off by the swing pipe E into the Juice heater B, where it is heated to near the boiling point and skimmed, then drawn off by the swing pipe F into the hot settling tank C, where it is again clayed and settled and the clear juice drawn off by a swing pipe G into the evaporator or receiving tank D. The clarified Juice Is then evaporated to sirup. By this method most of the solid impurities which were In suspen sion in the juice are removed. In the cut the tanks A, B, C and I) Il lustrate simply the principle of trans ferring the juice by gravity. In prac tice the tanks 14, C and D are separated from A and are supplied with a source of heat, either steam or open lire. Cnltlvndnsir I.ntc Cabbnjre. Through the fall until Halloween late cabbage makes its best growth, and it should be given good attention to promote this growth, according to an exchange, which affirms that it is impossible to cultivate cabbage too much and almost impossible to feed it too much. It is a rank feeder, and If fine manure Is put around the stalks and worked Into the soil it will help tiie cabbage heads to grow big and tender. Keep tiie ground well worked, and even if there 1* not a weed to be seen it should 1 »«• hotd as often ns pos sible. Hoe the soil to the stalk just a little each time, so as to keep the roots cool and 11101 st and as the cool nights come the heads will begin to fill out and by tiie tVme they are ready to pull will lie hard, sweet, white ami tender, and with these four good qual ities the cabbage will lie perfect. lInrvPH«l»K Conjieti. Teas are cut for hay with an ordi nary mower when tiie first pods turn brown. The curing '.s difficult. The vines should be put into cock the sec ond day to prevent loss of the leaves, and the curing is effected by the sweat ing and subsequent exposure to the air by loosening the cocks with a fork. This process must be repealed (hiring several days Some growers make tiie hay without much curing, just as is recommended in case of red clover, but tiie one adopting this plan will likely fall. Green stufT, free from outshle moisture, but full of sap, will cure nicely in a barn for the highly scientific, but It is very apt to char, burn, aiold, rot aud do £ lot of other things for the rest of us.—Ohio Farmer.
