BROOME GBASS A
Will Stand Drought
The common name of this grass is smooth broome grass. It is a native
ot" Europe and Asia. From the fact that it Is said to have been introduced
into this country from Austria-Hungary, It Is often called Austrian or Hun
garian broome grass. It is easily distinguished from all other common
broome grasses by its smooth usually beardless glumes or chaff. The seed
should be sown in liberal quantities on well prepared ground. The forage
made by this grass is coarse, but it is of excellent quality. The grass seems
able to endure drought and also withstands considerable degrees ot cold.
Air-dried samples analyze about ten per cent, protein, which makes it ex
ceedingly valuable for feeding.
Advantages of the Silo.
The bIIo has opened advantages to
dairymen in other countries where
corn does not mature. In England,
where the conditions are unfavorable
for production of matured crops ot
corn, the farmers sow corn for fod
der, store fn the silo and then grow
a crop of turnips on the land from
which they took the fodder. The
same system can be practiced in this
country, but our farmers are too of
ten content with one crop, and thus
do not derive as much from the land
as Is possible to be obtained. The
land in England is high and farmers
pay hieh rents, but they do not hesi
tate to apply manures and fertilizers
liberally, because in that way only
can .they get large crops in return.

Thorough Tillage For Apples.
At Orchard Farm, at Ghent, N. Y.,
lying at the foothills of the Berk
shires, and in the valley of the Hud
sop, we are cultivating about 100
acres of apple orchards, and we have
tried and tested two systems, both
of which have their advocates one
of annual cultivation, or tillage of the
soil, and the other the soJ and mulch
method. While there are occasional
farms where the conditions are favor
able for growing apples on the sod
mulch plan, they are exceptions, and
as a method it is not to be generally
recommended or followed.
After several years of trial with
three different plots of trees, under
sod and mulch. In which we failed
to get either a -satisfactory growth
of trees or anything like a good 1
yield of fruit, we have thrown ou J
the plan and follow only that of high
culture. ' '
' From the time the trees are set we
keep the sod under regular annual
tillage from the early spring to July
1st to 15th.' This keeps the soil in
the best, possible condition for the
most perfect development of both
tree and fruit. The soil that Is best
suited to the growing of ' apples -of
the highest quality is a limestone,
with a combination of clay and loam.
In a soil of this character there Is a
large quantity of ' potential plant
food, and thorough tillage will liber
ate this in the right proportion to
meet the needs of trees and give them
not only rnpid but also the best pos
sible development. George T. Powell.

Water Power on the Farm.
' Most farmers seem to regard the
farm power house as pertaining to
the steam or gasoline engine, but for
the man who has a creek or small
overflowing stream on his place, what
Is better than water power?
It has one great advantage; the
first cost is practically the only cost.
Then why not, If you are so fortunate
as to have the water, build a small
power house at the side of the creek
and use the water power? It could
be used to advantage for pumping

water for the stock, for running a
small electric dynamo to furnish light
for the house and barn, even (It you
have sufficient power) with the aid
of the electric cooking plates now to
be had at reasonable prices, for cook
ing. Then there is the sewing machine.
It requires a very small motor and
very little current to run this, so a
small dynamo will furnish power
through the day.
By the use of a little line Bhaftlng
the wheel may be used to run a feed
grinder, or a fanning mill, grindstone,
drill press, churn, sSparator, etc.
In case your well doesn't supply
plenty of water for stock, put in a
small tank pump, run the suction
pump with a strainer on the end, into
the creek below the wheel and pump
the creek water to your stock.
In case one puts in a pneumatio
pressure tank one may at a very
little more expense arrange it so as
to be self-regulating, giving a con
stant water pressure.
In regard to the wheel there are
several types., .Where there is suf
ficient fall, i.,thlnk perhaps the en
closed wheel Is best, or the water
turbine. However, the overshot
wheel will run with the least amount
of water.
The farmer who is fortunate
enough to have this cheap power will
find many uses to which it may be
put, and will find it saves time, work
and money. J. S. D., in the Indiana

150 Spent on Useless Treatments
Disease Seemed Incurable
Cured by C'utlciira for $1.50.
"When my little boy was two and a half
months old he broke out on both cheeks
with eczema. It wns the itchy, watery
kind and we had to keep his little hands
wrapped up nil the time, and if he would
happen to get them uncovered he would
claw his face till the blood streamed down
on his clothing. We called in a physician
at once, but he gave an ointment which
was so Bevcre that my babe would scream
when it was put on. We changed doctors
and medicines until we had spent fifty dol
lars or more and baby was netting worse.
I was so worn out watching and caring for
him night and day that I almost felt sure
the disease was incurable. Hut finally
reading of the, good results of the Cuticura
Remedies, I determined to try them. I can
truthfully say I was more than surprised,
for I bought only a dollnr and a half's
