Alchemy In Vegetables. The discovery of a means of meta morphosing radishes Into potatoes has been made In the Academy of BelenCM, Paris. The Inventors method, briefly described In popular terms, is this: He takes a very young radish, "paeterizes" It in a certain way and it grows up Into a fine potato. More scientifically, the young radish Is cultivated in a glass retort, after a process Invented by Pasteur, In a concentrated solution of glucose. Starch then develops plentifully In the cells of the radish, which swells out, loses its pepper lneeK and acquires practically the consistency, flavor and especially the nutritive properties of the potato are fond of It. This bread, together with a supply of rolled oats and a mixture of ground grain, together with grass and clover seed from chaff, plenty of fine grit and clean water, is the bill of fare up to four weeks, after which they get a little whdle grain among the chaff, and later some fine cracked corn and whole oats kept where they can help themselves. The breeder Is cleaned once a week at first and later twice a week.

Age Limits of Dairy Cows A bulletin from the Wisconsin Sta ' tlon states that a cow Is at her best , during her fifth and sixth years, up i to which time the production of milk and butter fat by cows in normal condition Increases each year. The length 'of time the cow will mulntain her maximum production depends on her constitution, strength and the care with which she is fed and man aged. A good dairy cow should not show any marked falling off until after ten years of age. Many excel lent records have been made by cows older than this. The quality of the milk produced by heifers Is somewhat better than that of older cows, for a decrease has been noted of one to two-tenths of one per cent, in the av erage fat content for each year until the cows havs reached the full age This is caused by the increase in the weight of the cows with advancing age.

Fertilizer For Corn. Tt Is the opinion of many farmers that commercial fertilizer does not ray when applied to the corn crop. It is true that It does not when ap plied as many apply it. In order that commercial fertilizer may be i made to yield a profit on the corn I crop the soil should be well prepared and well supplied with vegetable humus. The commercial fertilizer should be .used to balance the plant food in the soil, and slnco stable manure is most deficient in phos phoric acid, It Is often r good plan to apply a moderate application of su perphosphate to land where the stable manure is applied, or where a sod Is turned for corn. The fer tilizer should be distributed all through the sell rather than applied to the hill In order to encourage the roots to branch out all through the sell in search of food. A few years ago I saw an old field which had laid out for years and had grown noth ing but broom sedge. It was regard ed as worn "out The broom sedge was turned and 200 pounds per acre of a good grade superphosphate drilled In with a common drill. Tho field was put to corn and grew a very good crop of corn. In this part of the country almost any old Bod field when -well prepared will bring a pretty good crop of corn with an ap plication of a phosphate only. If the fertilizer Is depended on to grow the crop from year to year it will soon cease to respond to such fer tilization, but the proper plan to pur sue is to get such lands to grass or clover as soon as possible and get something to supply vegetable matter to the soil. By using the phosphate In connec tion with the stable manure - the manure can be made to go farther and both being used together they will give better returns than when they are used separately. A.

Younganl- mals use a portion of their food for ' the formation of body tissue, and It 1 Is to bo expected, therefore, that heifers will require a larger portion 1 of nutrients for the production of milk or butter fat than do other cows. After a certain age has been reached, on the averuge seven years of age, the food required for the production I of a unit of milk or butter fat again increases, both as regards dry matter and the digestible nuponc-nts of the food. A good milch cow of excep I tional strength, kept under favorable . conditions, whose digestive system has not been impaired by overfeeding ' or crowding for high results, should continue to be a profitable producer till her twelfth year, although the care do make a difference In the amount of milk which a cow will give Is shown by the following, from the Modern Farmer: Here Is an illustration of the In fluence of proper feeding and good care, and perhaps, proper milking. The editor of the Modern Farmer bought out of a dairy herd a young Jersey that had been giving milk nearly a year, first calf. She was giv ing less than two quarts of milk at a milking when she came to us and had been sold because It did not pay to milk her. She was very thin and dirty, but very gentle and kindly dis posed. We put her on good alfalfa hay and what we thought to be the proper feed, used the currycomb freely, treated her kindly, milked her regularly and properly. She s now giving two and one-half gallons of milk per day, and from all indica tions she has not yet reached the limit. Of course, all dairy cows would not respond in this way in so short time, about one month, but many of them would, and those which would not are not profitable cows to keep. This heifer was probably cost ing the party who had her as much to keep her us It is costing the editor of the Modern Farmer, but she was not being fed on the right kind of feed, ear corn und timothy hay, to produce milk. Perhaps the treat ment and method of milking had, also, something to do with It, buc we do not know anything about this. We substituted alfalfa for the tim othy, and ground corn for ear corn, mixed with a little bran, and pushed her as fast as we thought safe, with the result mentioned above.

If there Is do rain in Russia and a drought In tie Argentine Republic while there is plenty of It In North America, the farmer of this country harvests a big crop and gets u good price, if there is drought in North America and not much ruin in Rus sia, the farmer here gets a fair price for what little he has, but If Provi dence favors him with plenty of rain all over the earth be hardly make enough to pay for the seed be plants, because the bulls and the bears of commerce eat up all of his profits. They bet millions of dollars that the price will be only fifty cents when natural causes would let It go to a dollar, because It Is worth thst to ralsa It and to ship It to the places of distribution In the United States.

"Were It net for the revolution ary changes brought about by the Invention and Introduction of ma chinery, etc., we would have stayed practically where we were at the be ginning of the nineteenth century," says Dr. Helene Stocker In writing of "The Women's Movement In Ger many" In The Independent. "New kinds of work had to be created to take tho place of those that were lost," she continues: "In this way the women's move ment became a necessity. Two ways only were open for a woman to whom the opportunity for work wns denied, providing she was not for tunate enough to have come Into the world blessed with a yearly Income. These were disgrace or death. Even those who could have no conception themselves of what mental hunger was had to realize that woman was acquainted, at all events, wlfh physi cal hunger, and, therefore, she should be allowed to provide for her physi cal needs with the work of her own hands. Even If there had been no women's movement, It would have been necessary for the leaders of tho State to have originated it unless they had had the Intention to pen sion off all women and maintain them at the public's expense." Thus, out of material needs, Frau Stocker points out, came a new Ideal for women. This ideal first found public expression in the first German women's association organ ized In 1865, two years after Lasallu had founded the first German work men's association. For the first few years, it seems, this association and other organizations of women were very modest In their claims for higher education and other oppor tunities for their sex, perhaps In the hope of gaining more sympathy thereby. But about the year 1890 they began to change their policy, the Idea having arisen among some that In women's movements, as In politics, the saying of Bismarck ap plied, "Dutiful children get noth ing!" In this way a more radical tendency was created, and to this Frau Stocker attributes the more rapid progress of the last ten years. The new Ideas have now pene trated every class of German society, Frau Stocker says, and have many sympathizers among men, as well us women. Women's organizations follow, to a great extent, the lines of political parties. Even the Clerical-Conservatives have recognized that it is now time to take up a position to drlvo the women into the camps of the Progressive parties. Accordingly, two religious organizations of wo men have come Into existence, one the Evangelical Women's League and the other the Catholic Women's League, the latter under the direc tion of the Centre party. The fact that the Centre Is now taking th" women's movement officially under its wing Frau Stocker cites as the best argument that the women's movement Is now being taken se riously and can no longer be Ignored.

Keeping Youngs Folks on Fariti. For some time past the drift of youths to the cities and towns from our rural districts baa been greatly detrimental to the welfare of those engaged In farming pursuits, hetice the question, How can we keep the young, people on the farm? In my opinion this question may be an swereu by saying: Give more atten tion to their environment. Make borne more attractive and amusing. The reason 1 believe so many leave their country homes Is in search ot pleasure. Now, why should we not provide some luxuries for our homes, and thus save our young people from the many snarej encountered in civic life' In order that we use discretion in our selection of home amusements we must first study the Individual tastes of our youth. It may be the purchase of an organ or piano may fill the bill from mother's side ot the house, while the father may fulfil his duty by the gift of some good literature, or perhapa a coll may cultivate a liking for home life. There are many things that will suggest them selves as we look this question In the face. An advanced education along agricultural lines gives ua to realize the res'nesn of our pro fession.
