PLANTING CORN.
Some of the Advantages « lalmed For
Drilling; In a Furrow.
' > my own practice I drill in n fur
made either with a plow or a
bpreader attaclied to a runner. This
Is not the most popular way of drilling.
At a recent corn school a majority pre
ferred no furrow. One advantage of
a furrow is that it holds the roofs
down. Corn is a grass. and nil grasses
form a root crown near the surface
and develop tho whole system from it.
So it makes no difference how deep It
is planted. If it conies up at all. the
root system will be no deep -r than if
it had been planted one inch deep. By
If | |
F,c ;' I jS %
Fl<r.2 Jl | I
PLOWUfO CORN.
[Fig. 1, surface planted corn; Fig. I.
furrow planted corn.]
depressing the surface this crown is
formed just below the l>ottoni of the
furrow, and the roots run out every
way deep under the side banks. On
this account the bull tongues will not
touch the roots in running sonje three
inches deep.
In drilling corn one ought always to
use a furrow if the field is foul. I can
keep foul land clean more easily when
drilled than planted in a hill. I can
lap dirt around one stalk by letting
fenders drag better than around two
or three stalks some distance apart. I
like to drill fourteen to sixteen Inches
apart In land tiiat will make lifty
bushels. For my silo 1 drill thicker.
The grain should l>e covered just deep
enough to secure moisture. It depends
on the starch in the seed to reach light,
and If too deep It will grow spindling
to economize the starch.
Nature plants broadcast and altout
twice the depth of the size of the
seed. Hut she always mulches a little
to hold dampness. If the corn has not
been exposed to frost in winter and Is
sorted and drilled light, you should
have no sleepless nights, because it is
quite sure to come a good stand, which
remains !>r> per cent of a perfect stand,
cays-a writer in American Agricultur
ist.
Contrivance For I.M mba.
The cut shows an effective and prac
tical lamb creep. The idea !s valuable
on account of the economy of shed
space secured. A plan!; on which
cleats are nailed leads from the ground
up on a platform about three and a
lialf feet high. On one side of this plat
form are arranged the troughs for the
lambs to feed from, and it is remarka
|>le how soon the lambs leurn to make
use of tho whole contrivance.

top of a board when- one end rests on
the top of a fence and the other on the
ground. This inclination to cllinb
prompts them to run up the plank, and
the platform seems to lie an attractive
place for them to play. Finding a little
bran and oats or cracked corn In tho
troughs, they soon learn what It Is for,
an«l It Is amusing to see tliem chase
each other up tho plank and crowd up
on the platform ns soon as let in at
feeding time, says a correspondent of
Ohio Farmer. The cut shows a few
ewes with the lanilts feeding on (lie
platform.
Conservative View of Inoculation.
Inoculation c#n be done successfully
antl profitably where cure is taken In
observing the proper methods.
A conservative course Is recommend
ed, The recent wild enthusiasm, using
inch terms as "vest pocket fertilizer."
"act like magic," etc., is misleading,
while any statement that Inoculation
by artificial cultures is a fraud Is equal
ly wrong.
So amount of Inoculation or any
thing else will make up for an Imper
fectly prepared seed bed, poor soil,.bad
seasou and poor cultivation.—Virginia
Experiment Stntlon.
Rollfd or A<»lf llolltMl.
The various lime and sulphur mix
tures (some with and some without
salt, and caustic sodn) are all recom
mended by the New Jersey experi
ment station as giving more uniform
results when boiled by fire or steam
than when self boiled. It Is advised
to boll them with fire or steam when It
enn he dono without too much labor.
The self boiled mixtures are sometimes
convenient because more easily made,
though slightly less reliable unless
carefully prepared and thoroughly ap
Oiled.
MODEL FARM GARDEN.
F.onic Rows, Systematic riant IIIK an«l
llorse TllluKe.
Tills garden was made upon the hor
ticultural grounds of the t'nlverslty of
Illinois. I,al>or saving met hods were
practiced as far as possible. The gur
den (half an acre) was laid out In the
form of a long rectangle t'JKo.S foot l>y
77.05 feet), with the rows extending
lengthwise of the area and for the
most part placed siitllclently far upart
to admit of horse cultivation. Care
was taken to work the ground In
spring when It had reached exactly the
right degree of dryness so that a seed
bed could Is* prepared without the use
of any hand tools whatsoever. The ar
rangement of the vegetables 111 the
garden was, wltli few exceptions, In
the order of their planting, so that It
was possible to harrow the implanted
portion at sufficiently frequent Inter
vtils to keep It free from weeds ntid
well applied with moisture.
Furthermore, the early crops which
occupied the ground only a part t;f tho
sciiMon were planted together so that
after their removal the laud might tie
planted to later crops, the cultivation
of which would prevent the growth (if
weeds that might otherwise be allowed
to ;'o to n'cit and Increase the labor of
hand weeding the next year. The veg
etaliles I»ciug arranged strictly In the
order of planting could therefore be
planted In freshly worked soli without
the Inconvenience of preparing a nar
row strip of implanted land between
rows already planted.
The garden was kept la a high state
of cultivation throughout the season
with the one horse cultivator until the
crops had grown so large as to prevent
the passage of the ItnpleinnMt between
the rows nnd with the wheel hoe for
the early planted vegetables during
April aud May. Later considerable
hand hoeing was done.
In training tomato plants a stake
fire feet long was driven beside each
TOMATO PBr*-TD TO RDTCIiE STEM,
plant, and the plant was kept tied to
this stake by tying ai intervals of
about two weeks from the time the
plants were well established until they
had extended above the tops of the
stakes.
Instead, however, of being pruned
absolutely to the single stem form
shown in the out the plants were prun
ed early In the season to one stem and
then allowed to branch freely higher
up. This gave nn abundance of frnlt
lng branches, and the crop was eaor
mous, averaging slightly over one-half
bushel of ripe fruit per plant. The
fruit was also very large and smooth.
Tlie "»w Celery Culture."
The "new method" of growing cel
ery. as briefly described by Rural New
Yorker, consists in preparing the soil
thoroughly, manuring or fertilizing
heavily and setting the plants close to
gether. In some cases one foot apart,
all over the field, without mounding or
banking up. It is necessary to irrigate
from time to time, and while young the
plants ere kept clean by hand and
wheel h:x». The dense mass of celery
bleaches the stalks without the need of
earth or boards. It appears, however,
that the method has not become popu
lar and that some trouble has resulted
from mice attacking the celery.
GARDEN CRAFT

RED OR GREEN.
Color Trouble* of the Color Blind
Poet* Whit I lor.
It is well known that the poet Whlt
tler was color blind and uualile to dis
tinguish red from green. He once
lxmght for himself a necktie which he
supposed to be of a modest and suit
able olive tint and wore It once. He
never wore It again, for his friends
soon made him aware that It offended
against the traditional (juictncss of
costume enjoined alike by the habits
of the Frlendfi and by his own taste.
The tie was of flaming scarlet.
Oil another occasion, when he found
a little girl In distress on account of
a new gown, made over from her elder
sister's, which was not ls-couilng to
her coloring and complexion, ho tried
to console her.
"I wouldn't mind what a rude boy
says about It, Mary," he said kindly.
"Thee looks very well Indeed Iq It,
llko an oread, Mary, dressed all In
green."
Unfortunately, Mary was not dressed
In green. She was red haired, and her
dress was ml. That was the trouble.
Once, on a day in mid-March, when
out walking" with a Friend and deeply
engaged 111 conversation, Mr. Wlltttler
approached too near for safety to a
place whore blasting was going on.
The danger signal was shown, but
neither Friend noticed it until a work
man, violently waving Ills arms and
shouting, leaped before them and
warned them back.
"I didn't see the flag at all," said
Mr. Whlttler's companion.
"I saw It." rejoined the poet, with
a twinkle In his eye, "but 1 thought It
was In honor of St. Patrick. Tliee
knows my defect. I can'l tell Erin
from explosions except by the harp!"
