HANDLING MANURE.
Most Important Slnsrlt; Kent ure on
the Detrlcli Model Form.
By W. J. SPILLMAN"
The method of handling manure on
the famous Detrieh rnodei dairy farm
can be used only on farms on which
ttock is kept in stalls, and It is there
fore not applicable to all styles of
stock farming, but it is unique, per
fectly systematized and bears an Inti
mate relation to the success attained.
Behind each row of cows is a gutter
eighteen Inches wide and seven Inches
deep. These gutters have an outlet.
They are thoroughly cleaned daily.
The whole barn is disinfected twice a
week by the free use of creolin, and
the interior is frequently whitewashed.
When cleaned, the gutters are sprin
kled with dry ashes or dry dirt to ab
sorb what moisture may be present.
During the day a quantity of absorb
ent, consisting of leaf mold, rotten sod,
etc., is placed In them. Each gutter
ends near a door. The manure Is
:
FIELD OF KTE IS APRIL.
lifted from the gutter into a cart back
ed up to the door. The end of the gut
ter next the door is slightly lower than
tbe other end. One man lifts the ma
nure with a fork and places it in the
lower eud of the trench. A second man
then lifts it into the cart. In this man
ner the liquid manure is all got Into
the carl. Finally the fragments that
remain lu the trench are swept to the
lower eud and removed. The cart goes
immediately to the field, and the ma
nure is spread at once. In summer it
is spread on the laud from which the
soiling crops are removed. In winter
it is spread on the rye and grass fields
—on the latter particularly when the
ground Is too soft to place It upon the
rye fields. No manure is used on new
ly seeded grass lands, but the second
and third years grass fields are top
dressed in whiter. "We always have a
place ta put manure," said the owner
of this farm, and this Is the secret of
his large crops.
The cut shows a field of rye on this
farm.
FEED HER UP.
Feed Is High, So Are Milk and
Batter.
Keep the cow up in flesh, up In spirit,
up in production. Feed is high, but so
are milk and butter. Hay Is not high
in price now, neither is the corn stover,
and the silage Is in the silo at prime
cost. Good silage, good clover or mix
ed hay, comfortable quarters, clean wa
ter and generous, particular care are
starting factors In the balanced ration.
These are generally capable of being
profitably re-enforced by good commer
cial feeds in reasonable quantities, but
the former are the elements that de
termine profit.
It is uot wise feeding, of course, to
make a cow fat, nor if she be a good
dairy cow with enough protein in her
feed is it easy to do. It is certainly
tho greatest unwisdom in feeding to
allow the cow to grow poor, so that her
vitality Is lowered and her production
restricted.
Good condition of flesh, the best In
dication of ability to do profitable
work, can usually, with proper atten
tion being given It, be secured by the
Intelligent feeding of the rough prod
ucts of the farm. These should of
course be carefully harvested and hous
ed and fed In the most appetizing con
dition. How much vitality one cow
more than another puts Into her milk
I don't know, but I do know that out
of her vitality comes her milk. Keep
up her supply.—W. F. McSparran in
Homo and Farm.
Cotvs In SprlnK.
In the spring there Is almost always
More or less trouble with the udders
of cows. The best way to avoid this is
to feed uo heavy rations for a few
weeks before they begin to give milk.
Then "wheat bran should be about the
only grain ration. If the bag becomes
caked, rub It often with quite warm
water. If very bad, drop a little cam
phor into the water. Vaseline is also
very good. But keep the rubbing up
till all the bunches are gone.—Dr. Mlch
ener In Farm Journal.
Brash Cleaner*.
There is no worse animal to put into
an orchard than the goat, because he
is a browser of the truest type, but
for preparing brush or timbered land
that Is to be put Into orchard or any
kind of fruit he has no equal. The
Angora may be the most profitable to
keep, but any kind of scrub goat will
eat brush and weeds, and this Is the
desirable point for the man that wants
his land cleaned of all woody growth.
EGGPLANT SEEDLINGS.
How to Grow Them In the House.
Potted Plants Preferred.
The eggplant, one of the most whole
some, nutritious and finely flavored of
vegetables, being a tropical plant, re
quires a high temperature, but the
young plants can be raised, with a lit
tle care, in the house as well as In a
hotbed. Tills Is how it can be done, as
told in an exchange:
Get a ten cent package of Improved
New York large purple seed, which
sow evenly In a small box of tine, well
enriched loam— leaf mold if you can
get it—covering the seed lightly and
firming the soil about the seed by press
ing it gently with a small piece of
board. The soil should be Just moist
and no more, as during germination
eggplant seeds cannot stand much
dampness or being chilled. This is the
critical time. Place the box before a
window, facing the south if possible,
In the kitchen or a room where the
temperature never falls below 08 to
70 degrees.
Rejoin Any Time After March.
It often happens that after April 1—
before which date it is best not to sow
your seed the temperature outside
gets low, penetrating tho window
panes; in which case remove your box
of embryo plants to warmer quarters
for the time being.
As soon as plants get their second
leaves they should be transferred to
larger boxes; better still, to pots—three
j Inch and live inch sizes are handy. In
transplanting the first time to the three
Inch pots handle plants carefully, leav
ing as much soil as possible attaching
to roots. In transferring from three to
five inch pots—the latter being one
third filled wlih soil beforehand—do it
as follows: Invert the pot, placing the
stem of _the plant between tijf se£ogjJ
<*r»A thiru "f your left hand, so
tu. t the top of the pot rests on the
pulm of your u&uJi give ths pot two or
three taps with your right, when it
can bo HfteU off; then put the whole
mass into the fire Inch pot, filling in
with more soil; adopt the same plan
when transferring from five inch pot
to garden.
WHITE PINE.
Ktliral Replacement on Old Fields
In New England.
By S N SPRING.
The increasing use and value of sec
ond growth white pine have caused
considerable interest to be taken In Its
rate of growth and reproduction.
Many persons 111 New England who
are familiar with past conditions can
recall the time when land which today j
has valuable pine upon It was under j
cultivation or in use as pasture. When
such lots are cut, however, trees of
little value frequently replace the pine
growth, so that white pine in New
England is threatened with extermina
tion. To insure its perpetuation prac
tical methods for Its renewal must be
employed at once.
Pine Extending Itself.
Many fields and pastures covered nt
present by seedling and sapling stands
give evidence that the white pine is
still extending Itself. This extension
depends principally upon the presence
of seed trees. The merchantable stands
are being rapidly removed on account
of the large consumption of pine by
certain industries. The common meth
od of lumbering these pine lots leaves
no seed trees to provide for future
stands.
The replacement of white pine can
be assured by leaving seed trees on
each lot when It is cut. If the prac
tice becomes general, the number of
stands of merchantable pine in New
England will be greater fifty years
hence than it is today, and the quality
of their timber will be better.
Wanted, a Key.
Continental Europe would afford a
vast outlet for the very class of meats
most difficult to find a market for in
Britain or America, if a key to unlock
the doors could in any way be found.
The common people there are prac
tically without beef at all times. Horse
meat is in frequent evidence. They
would feast upon grades and cuts of
beef which we are too fastidious to
buy. And as for hams, bacon, sau
sage, lard, etc., the product of literally
millions of corn fed hogs could be mar
keted in France, Germany and contig
uous countries if a way could be found
through the custom house. Ohio
Farmer.
GARDEN TALK
There is many a farmer who plants
his scores or hundreds of acres to
wheat, corn and cotton who actually
begrudges the use of a half acre for
a kitchen garden, yet that half acre,
or even quarter acre, gives better re
turns than any equal area on the farm.
Too often the garden is the most
neglected spot on the place. Good re
sults cannot be expected from meager
feeding and slovenly cultivation.
With much garden work It is "now
or never." The gardener who enters
the tag end of the procession is likely
to remain there.
The kitchen gardeii will take all that
we have to give. It has a place for
all the ashes, the yard sweepings,
leaves, wood pile trash, solid and liquid
refreshments and commercial fertili
zers. Its maw is truly Insatiable.
Hire a little extra labor (if you can
find It) and get ahead of the game for
once, at least.
Those who "make garden"* generally
grow only the commoner and most
easily raised vegetables because of the
popular notion that choice kinds can
only be raised by market gardeners
with hotbeds and greenhouses. This
Is not always a right conclusion. Try
a few of the finer things.
Humanity nnd Machinery.
Machinery is the cornerstone of mod
ern society, the very foundation on
which law, science, ethics, the arts,
even the state itself, rests. It Is so
new that we do not yet know its
poetry. We do not yet understand.
Only two generations have liveil be
side the highway of steam; only one
has seen the Bessemer converter trans
form the blacksmith into the master
builder of ships and towers. The sew
ing machine, the far speaker, the type
writer, are common things of today, ac
cepted as a matter of daily conven
ience, and yet are they teachers of the
people. Machines that come close to
our lives and homes insensibly teach
truth, precision, the adjustment of uni
versal laws to human needs, respect
for that wise American idea that
labor saved is labor released for high
er and nobler toil. The machine is the
head master of the high school of the
race.—Reader Magazine.
At a French Wedding.
A wedding feast is an important
ceremony in France among all classes
of society. Even among the very poor
est of the Parisians a wedding banquet
is the occasion for a reckless expendi
ture of money In the purchase of wiue
and viands. In Brittany a wedding Is
even a more gorgeous affair than in
Paris. At a recent wedding ceremony
In Brittany the guests numbered 1,200,
and three bullocks were slaughtered
to provide them with meat. Wine was
consumed In large quantities, and In
addition forty barrels of cider was con
sumed.
The Carrnnt.
The currant of commerce Is said to
be one of the most nutritious forms of
food, a pound of the little berries from
Greece containing more than three
times as much actual nourishment as
the same weight of lean beef. "Cur
rants," says one authority, "should
really be eaten every day. They con
tain all the beneficial properties of the
apple, but in greater proportion." The
most important fact connected with
them is that they supply the body with
muscle building and nerve sustaining
material in n form ready for speedy
digestion and assimilation.
Lion of Bal»yIon.
One of the oldest and at the same
time most Interesting bits of pictorial
work which have been preserved from
antiquity is thut of the lion of Baby
lon, and so careful was the workman
ship that even after the lapse of sev
eral thousand years not only the out
liue, but the color, is very distinct.
The figure was used very generally for
decorative purposes in ancient Baby
lon.
Childhood.
Man begins life helpless. The babe
is in paroxysms of fear the moment its
nurse leaves it alone, and it comes so
slowly to any power of self protection
that mothers say the salvation of life
and health of a young child is a per
petual miracle.—Emerson.
How It Was.
The Magnate—Do you mean to say,
sir, that you will charge me SI,OOO for
this operation if I live and $2,000 if I
tile? llow is that? Great Surgeon—lf
you die it will be so much easier to

For people who are run-down and nerv
ous, who suffer from indigestion or dys
pepsia, headache, biliousness, or torpid
liver, coated tongue with bitter taste in
the morning ana poor appetite, it be- j
comes necessary to turn to some U>nic or
strengthener which will assist Nature i
and help them to get on their feet and I
put the Dody into its proper condition. It
is becoming more and more apparent that
Nature's most valuable health - giving
agents aro to bo found in forest plants
and roots. _
Nearly forty years ago. Dr. R.V. Pierce,
now consulting physician to the Invalids
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at BufTiUo,
N. Y., discovered that by scientifically
extracting and combining certain medlci- j
nal principles from native roots, taken
from our American forests, he could pro- ,
duce a medicine which was marvelously i
efficient in curing cases of blood disorder I
and liver and stomach trouble as well as
many other chronic, or lingering ail
ments. This concentrated extract of
Nature's vitality he named "Golden Med
ical Discovery." It purifies the blood by
putting the " stomach and liver into
healthy condition, thereby helping the
digestion and assimilation of food which
feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak
stomach. Indigestion, torpid liver, or bil
iousness, and kindred derangements.
If you have coated tongue, with bitter
or bad taste In the morning, frequent
headaches, feel weak, ea?ily tired, stitches
or pain in side, back gives out easily and
aches, belching of gas. constipation, or
Irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al
ternating with chilly sensations or kin
dred symptoms, they point to derange
ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys,
which the "Golden Medical Discovery"
will correct more speedily and perma
nently than any other known agent. Con
tains no alcohol or habit-forming drugs.
All its ingredients printed in plain Eng
lish on wrapper.
The sole motive for sub»'itution Is to
permit the dealer to make a little more
profit. He gains; you lose. Accept no sub
stitute for "Golden Medical Discovery."
Constipation causes and aggravates
many serious diseases. It is thoroughly
cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
One a laxative; two or three are cathartic.
