A POTATO TO INTEREST.
A Vlaeless Bosh Sweet Potato—Hiunl
aome and Eaay to Care For.
The Vineland Bush resembles the
Jersey Yellow very closely In form and
folor. The picture was taken 24 hours
after they were dug and the vine had
become badly wilted, but it shows well
the general character. The bush form
is a great advantage in cultivation,
especially In the garden.
The plants are as easy to care for as
n bush bean, as there are no vines in
the way of cultivating, the short, stub
by stems never getting more than a
foot or so long. The leaves are of the
same general shnpe afi the Jersey, but
much larger and darker green.
The bright golden yellow color of the
tubers makes them very attractive.
Their eating quality is practically the
TTNEIiANT) BUSH BWKKT POTATO.
same as the Jersey Yellow when grown
on the same soil. In fact, it Is quite
Impossible to distinguish between
them either before or after cooking.
Their yield was at the rate of 50
barrels to the acre with us the past
season. While some varieties yielded
more, the Vineland Bush gave a good
average crop. Their keeping quality
is not of the best, being somewhat in
clined to shrivel in winter storage.'
A New Jersey grower gives in ltural
New Yorker the foregoing report of
this famous product of his state and
adds the experience of a Delaware
man who discarded another vineless
variety "for the simple reason that it
Is superseded by Vineland Bush, which
Is a perfect bush, with no inclination
for spinning. The tubers grow direct
ly under the stalk. They are most
abundant bearers, good flavor, haud-
Borne, rich yellow in color. It is simply
perfection and a great improvement
over all vineless potatoes heretofore
sold." _____
CHEMICAL WEED KILLING.
Arsenate of Soda and Carbolic Acid
tbe Leading Destroyers.
A subject of growing Interest is that
of the possibility of successfully fight
ing weeds with chemicals. lt» is told
that as long ago as 1895 it was found
at the Vermont station that the orange
hawkweed, a serious pest in pastures
and meadows, could be destroyed with
out injury to the grass by sowing salt
over the land at the rate of 3,000
pounds per acre. At the same station
other chemicals afterward tested for
the eradication of weeds in walks,
drives and courts have been salt, cop
per sulphate, kerosene, liver of sul
phur, carbolic acid, arsenic and sal
soda, arsenate of soda and two com
mercial wood killers, the active prin
ciple of which apparently was arsenic.
The weeds which it was sought to de
stroy were plantain, dandelion, chic
ory, ragweed, knotweed and various
grasses.
All the chemicals were applied in so
lution except the salt. As in the case
of the hawkweed experiments, salt
was founil efficient in destroying all
the weeds when applied dry and in
large quantities.
When salt is used for this purpose,
adjacent lawns should be protected
against washing, or they may be in
jured.
Crude carbolic acid, one pint in four
pints of water, applied at the rate of
eight gallons per square rod was very
efficient. The various arsenical prep
arations proved valuable as weed de
stroyers, and choice between them was
largely a matter of expense.
All things considered, the arsenate
of soda and the carbolic acid solutions
proved the most valuable chemicals
for weed destruction under the condi
tions of these experiments.
Sapplylns Qarrm In Spring?.
Very often, especially after a severe
winter, some colonies will be queen
less in the spring. If no brood is found
in the hive when other colonies have
an abundance, it Is not much use to
hunt for a queen in that hive. Give
them a frame of eggs or young brood
from some other hive, and queen cells
will be found in a few days. It is best,
then, to unite them with some other
colony having a good queen, or if the
colony is a very strong one and of
enough value a queen may be purchas
ed from the south and Introduced.
Queens can be safely sent by msil In
April or May from the south before
our northern breeders have commenc
ed queen rearing. They do not cost
any more than northern queens, and
the way a colony with such a lively
young queen will build up will surprise
any one who has not tried it. I have
found that they winter just as well as
native queens, here in Nebraska at
least, and I think we have as about as
"tough" a winter with our sudden
changes as is found anywhere, writes
a correspondent to American Agricul
turist

THE FIELD PUMPKIN. )
rbr Old "YaJler Pumpltln" of Yo»kj
State—<«ood For Man and Brait.
S'hat moistens the lip anJ gladdens the eye,
What brings back the past as our own pumpkin
pie?
Perhaps there is no vegetable so easi
ly grown and so much neglected as the
field pumpkin, a valuable food for cat
tle, swine and the human family. As
a catch crop! planted with corn, as it is
usually grown, the yield is often won
derful. but when planted alone and
cared for the same as squashes it be
somes Immense. And in speaking of
pumpkins I mean, says a writer in
Gardening, the old lleld orange pump
kin, early, prolific, large enough to
handle, good for stock and second to
none for culinary purposes.
We have many new kinds, some of
mammoth size, others small, some rec
ommended for stock, others for table
use. Some of them are pumpkins, and
01 hers are neither pumpkins nor
squashes, and I doubt If any of them
are equal to my old favorite. A num
ber of years since business called me to
southern Illinois, aad as I was about
returning the old landlord with whom
I boarded requested me to send him
some "York state yaller pumpkin
seed," explaining that "the seed grown
there was good for nothing, as it ran
out after the first year, so that the
pumpkins were worthless."
Poor old man! lie got the seed, but
in taking them out to his farm he took
cold and did not live to enjoy the
crop, while I got the credit of causing
his death, as his daughter said, "If It
had not been for that York state Yan
kee, father would have been alive yet."
I do not tell this to deter others from
planting "yaller" pumpkin seed, but
rather to show the value of our eastern
pumpkins to the people of the Missis
sippi valley.
If gathered before hard frosts and
stored in a moderately warm place,
they can be kept until Christmas, but
they must not be bruised In handling
and should be thoroughly ripened be
fore gathering. In feeding to cattle the
seeds should be removed, which can
easily be done by cutting the pumpkin
open and scooping out the seeds with
a paddle or narrow shingle. In cook
ing for swine, which is the best way to
feed thein, remove the seeds the same
as for cattle. After being thoroughly
boiled ground feed can be mixed with
the pumpkins. This makes one of the
best and cheapest foods for the early
fattening period that can be used.
As for the culinary properties of
the pumpkin, ask any housewife who
has a drop of New England blood in
her veins, and she will tell you that
Thanksgiving dinner is never complete
without pumpkin pie.
MIXING FERTILIZERS.
Shall the Farmer Do ItJ-Cettin*
Down to First Principle*.
A man has a pain in his knee and
finds that by rubbing a certain lini
ment on it the pain is relieved. The
next week he has a headache, and, re
membering his knee, he rubs the same
liniment on his head. The pain gets
worse instead of better, and the man
denounces the liniment as a fraud, lie
does not realize that the trouble in his
head may come from his stomach. The
liniment helped his knee, but failed to
help his head, therefore it is a fraud.
You see, this man fails to recogfiize
that there were two kinds of aches,
each requiring a different treatment.
He is like the man who uses a "phos
phate" or someone sided fertilizer and
obtains good results on a certain crop.
He tries it on another crop or soli and
fails, therefore ail fertilizers are
frauds.
Upon the conditions described a Ru
ral New Yorker correspondent com
ments thus: A friend once used 200
pounds per acre of nitrate of soda on
wheat in the spriug and increased his
yield quite a little. Next year he decid
ed to use only nitrate on his potatoes,
which were planted on a soil quite de
ficient in potash. He got a large growth
of vines but few potatoes. lie said that
nitrate of soda and incidentally all fer
tilizers were "no good."
A fair amount of potash used with
the nitrate would have doubled his
yield, but he would not go down to
the true causes of his failure. Such
men make a mistake in attempting to
mix their own fertilizers or to use spe
cial substances. They will do much
better to buy the mixed goods and al
ways select complete mixtures.
Generally speaking, it will pay a
farmer to hire experts to mix or plan
for him unless he is willing to think
and study down to the basic princi
ples that underlie his work. The soil
may have four aches, requiring nitro
gen, i>otash, phosphoric acid or lime
to cure them. Unless you know which
particular ache your farm has you
would better use all four.
Affrioaltaral
The application of nitrogen in any of
its forms to sweet corn In all cases in
n-eased the yield at the New Jersey
Itation.
Moderate liming appears to Improve
both the physical and chemical proper
erties of sandy soils.
Tobacco decoction is very effective
against strawberry root lice.
Spinach should be sown every two
weeks for a succession.
It is claimed that when a young crop
Df fall wheat is only lightly infested
with Hessian fly it is possible some
times to stimulate the growth in spring
by a light application of some quick
acting fertilizer, such as nitrate of
toda.
An lowa farmer is said to have dem
onstrated that velvet weed, which
grows on almost every farm, will make
twine and rope as strong as that from
a good quality of hemp.
