CANADIAN FIELD PEAS.
Popular Crop IH Canada—Hon laed.
Harvest Inn-
By THOMAS SHAW
The term Canadian field peas, or, as
It Is more commonly expressed, "t an
ada field peas," Is used with uißeh
latitude In this country. Auk a pea
grower In the United States as to the
variety of seed which he sowed and
the almost Invariable answer given Is,
"1 sowed Canada peas." That may
mean that he grew any one of nearly
a hundred varieties. A common type
of the Canadian field pea is shown
la {ho first cut.
The pea crop Is one of the most Im
portant In Canada. In striking eon-
CANADIAN FIELD PEA.
trust with the magnitude of the pea Is
its Insignificance iu our own country.
Great advances, however, have been
made during recent years In growing
peas In Michigan, Wisconsin and Mon
tana uiul other mountain states.
Canadian feeders use pens largely
for cattle, also as food for dairy cows,
for swine and as a ration for ewes and
lainbs. The straw when well cured is
relished by horses, cattle and sheep,
though they may not take kindly to
It at first.
Pea straw harvested rather under
ripe than overripe and properly cured
will be eaten readily, but when al
lowed to get dead ripe live stock will
eat little of it.
Until recent years the pea crop was
harvested with the scythe or with the
old fashioned revolving hayru'ke. The
first method Is slow; the second shells
out many of the peas and so covers
the vines with soli as to render the
straw practically unfit for use. By the
aid of a pea harvester the crop may
be harvested speedily and In excellent
condition on level soils. It Is simply
an attachment to an ordinary field
mower, as shown In Fig. 1 of the sec
ond cut.
The guards in front lift up the peas
so that the knife can cut thcru cleanly.
The cut peas fall behind the mower
In a stringlike row or swath and two
men with forks bunch them and lay
them aside, out of the way of the
horses. Three men and a span of
horses may thus harvest ten acres iu

a day. Tlila attachment for harvest
ing peas Is made In Canada and thos#
now In use In the west have ali been
Imported. On rear cut mowers a plat
form Is sometimes used, ns shown In
Fig. 2.
With this attachment one man walks
behind and with a fork throws the
peas off iu bunches. But the platform
Is of doubtful advantage unless the
crop U evenly ripened, not too heavy
and free from standing weeds of
strong growth. Where the land has
been plowed In ridges, with furrows
more or less deep between tlieni, the
working-of the machine will be seri
ously Interfered with.
Huiitff Rfilorntloiii
In the true arid range, whore sage
brush (Artemisia tridentata) Is the pre
vailing vegetation, fencing and pro
tecting the land from overgrazing
during that season of the year when
the native forage plants are going to
seed will In all probability be the only
satisfactory methods of restoration.
This will not be at all difficult, for, ow
ing to the scarcity of water and to the
to;> great heat, the cattle and sheep are
taken to the higher altitudes during
the summer months. In this way the
native vegetation will have- a chance
to make a good growth and go to seed
each season without Interference from
the stock. Through this method the
•yistnre will not only yield a crop of
*ecd on which future Improvements
will be based, but the plnnts whl<Ji
have been grazed to a point very near
that of extermination will be given a
chance to regain their former vigor.—

WHAT LIME DOES.
Kilirrlrni't In Applying It to till- Soli.
Mode of I"*e.
I have used lime for agricultural
purposes for twenty-live years, always
with K»od results. < >ften the Increase
in the first crop more than pays for
the lime. Any farm that iias been un
der cultivation for many years will bo
greatly benefited by the judicious use
of lime. An example or two will illus
trate. Meeting an old acquaintance
In August, some years ago, I asked,
"Are you through haying?" "I guess
so," was his reply. "Some of It was
so poor I cut It for the looks, but will
not draw It In." 1 then asked, "How
many acres did you mow and how
much hay did you get?" He repHed,
"Sixty acres and got twenty-eight
tons." I i lid: "You foolish man! llow
many acres do you Intend to seed with
oats next spring?" He said ten acres.
After advising him to get a car of lime
to use with as much stable manure as
he could spare from his other crops Ave
parted. I met him again some years
later, in August, and asked, "Are
you through haying?" Finished last
week," lie replied. "How many acres
did you mow and how much hay did
you get?" "Mowed thirty acres, and
my barns wouldn't hold It."
Kfleotn (lnlmrd For I.lme.
X claim four tilings for lime: It neu
trallzoa the acidity of tlio soil und
sweetens it. It attacks all vegetable
matter with which It comes lu contact,
decomposes It and Ills It for plant food.
Lime enters Into the coinposlUon of all
vegetable growth, especially grain and
hay. Lime is warming to the HO.I. The
best time to use lime Is when seeding,
either with oats, rye, barley . , grass
seed alone; either spring or fall seed
ing. At lirst I used lump lime, putting

Difference In Alfalfa SoiU.
Alfalfa grows best in" a jvell drained
loamy soil with a subsoil sufficiently
open to allow the roots to penetrate to
a considerable depth; yet an examina
tion of the soli in the villous alfalfa
districts shows that there is a much
wider variation In the soil conditions
than has generally been supposed. In
the irrigated regions the soil Is.adapt
ed to the growth of alfalfa and little
difficulty is experienced In t obtalning
successful stands. However, like other
plants alfalfa suffers If from Improper
method* of irrigation the soil becomes
too strongly Impregnated with alkajl.
Old alkali tk'ld-s may apparently with
stand' considerable quantities of alkali,
because the deep seated' roots may be
drawing tlidlr supply of water from
lower strata, where there Is less allcall.

OLD TIME DENTISTRY.
facer luiitrwn*nt< tu Harvard Ren
tal Srkotl'i foHe«tl*>.
Like many other of the "new" pro
fessions, dentistry is a very old one.
It is known that 400 years before the
beginning of the Christian era Egyp
tian dentists tilled teeth with gold, but
no trace of their methods of doing their
work has ever been found. Aescula
pius, the patron of physicians, was the
first famous dentist in Roman history,
and the old Romans used a toothpick
very much li-ke Hie little wooden one
that is made today. The Arabians
ages ago produced' a dentifrice, Uut it
soon seemed to be very generally used.
The story of dentistry is told iu the
instruments it has empleyed. As they
are known today they had their be
ginning iu the sixteenth centuuy, but
their evolution has been slow. In the
Harvard Dental school in Boston there
is a collection of instruments used by
dentists in the first half of the last cen
tury. One of the formidable tools it
includes is what was called a key,
doubtless from its peculiar shape,
which was used for extracting teeth,
the process being to slowly and pain
fully twist and pry the offending molar
out of it* place. In order that no mis
take should lie made the dentist began
operations by hammering and prod
ding ene tooth after another with a
sort of bludgeon until he had satisfied
himself—not to mentiou the tortured
patient—that he had found the most
sensitive one and therefore the most
likely candidate for extraction.
The grandfathers oi* the delicate steel
tools that lie in rows on the modern
dentist's table were small in number,
but large in awfulness. There are In
the Harvard collection chisels, and mul
lets, rude forceps for removing the
teeth, miniature crowbars used to re
pair cavities for filing, filas for sharp
ening the cutting and grinding sur
faces of teeth and one particularly
horrid instrument, known as the pel
ican, with which teeth were "lifted."
llow rapidly and recently dentistry
has become one of the important
sciences appears In the fact that In
the middle of the last century black
smiths were doing their best—or worst
—to relieve the victims of the tooth
ache, while today institutions like tho
Harvard Dental school attract stu
dents from all over the world. Be
sides, while It was sure torture to go
to the dentist In the so called "good
old days," such a visit now is com
paratively comfortable, so far has the
profession gone in the direction of per
forming its operations without caus
ing lulu.
An Intc rent line Experiment.
A vessel containing a certain white
powder Is placed upon the table, when
the operator advances, waving his
wand and uttering some magic words
coined by himself, when, 10. of a sud
den the room i$ lighted up with a bril
liant light, so eff-ujgent that it dims the j
eyes of the spectators. The secret is 1
this: The powder Is composed of equal
weights of loaf sugar and chlorate ef
potash, separately reduced'jto fine pow
der and then weH mixed together. Tills
is placed in a cup, and when the pow
der is touched "with the least drop of
sulphuric acid it will instantly burst
into a Jlame. The end of the glass rod
should be dipped in the acid Immediate
ly before use.

Dr. A. W.[Chase's Nerve Pills.
Overwork the stomach, or subject it
to the depressing influence of worry
care, or constant excitement, and it
gives out. Ask it to digest anything,
everything, at any time, and in half the
time required, and, and like any over
driven horse, it balks. The reason for
this in the close nerve relationship be
tween the brain and stomach, and the
fact the irritation of either organ means
the distress of the other Nature intend
ed the stomach shonld haveregularhours
a time to work, a time to rest and when
you break up this habit yon upset the
whole arrangement. The stomach nerves
become exhausted, the glands refuse
to act, the food does not digest—lies
heavy, ferments, and repeats. There is
i'■ 11 ij. forms, bloating occurs, the
hf-trt becomes irregular and a nervous,
irritable feeling sets in. This is nervous
dyspepsia and Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve
Pills its cure.
Mrs. James H Titus, of No. 107 Clin
ton St . Warren. Pa., says:
'Dr. A. W Chase's Nerve Pills are
just splendid. My stomach bothered
IUO for twelve years—food digested
slowly—heavy after eating. I was fear
fully dizzy bv spells and very nervous. 1
tried everything—other medicines, doc
tors, anything 1 was told to, but th«
Nerve Pills I got settled all this. The)
■ured me. I feel well in every way to

splendid. I have and will con
tinne to recommend them strongly, as 1
believe the medicine to be unequaled in
its ability to cure such troubles, as il
certainly acted like magic with me. i
