Some friend* in Arkansas lent me
•peeimen copies of four paper, and the
contents werh so interesting and tho
price so reasonable, that 1 thought I
must subscribe for it, though I am not
living on a farm. 1 am the mother of
(little) children, and thoir depart
ment seems so good that I think a
titling answer to the question. ‘What
shall we do with our boys?” would be,
subscribe for Home and Farm and in
terest them, and refresh our own mem
ories by helping them hunt up an
swers to the History and Bible ques
tions. I would like’to asK the woman
who wrote the article entitled, ‘-What
Experience Teachers," is it not possi
ble that ••John” was spoiled before
he fell into your hands? And are not
other mothers spoiling •Johns” for
wives of the future by not teaching
them to be more seif-helpful? Louisa
M. Alcott, in her book, "Little Men.”
among the other things which she
thought a boy should learn, says: "A
boy should learn to get ready.for a
journey without the united efforts of
, mother and sisters; to wash dishes
and make his bed when necessary; to
sew on buttons and darn a stocking."
How many of us are teaching our boys
these thinks? I know families which
consist iargely of boys, where the
mothers perform ail these offices with
out ever once thinking it possible for
them to help her in what has always
been considered girls’ and mothers’
work. In these families every Mon
day is a veritable "blue Monday.”
The mothers have all the Sunday gar
ments to brush up and put away, tho
Sunday school lesson leaves, song
books, etc., to gather up and arrange
in their proper places. The proba
bility is that these boys will be men
some day and will share homes with
some one. and then we shall listen for
the question, "Did I spoil John?’ ”—

Taming Wild Grasses.
A subject of no small importance is
broached by Professor Charles E.
Bessey, of the Nebraska Experiment
Station, in a recent article in the
American Agriculturist. lie suggests
that it is by no means likely that we
have reached the limit of possibility
in the improvement of wild grasses—
taming them, as all the cultivated
grasses now known have been tHined,
by selection, cultivation, adoption to
soils, etc,
He reminds us that it is not very
long ago that timothy, red-top, or
chard grass and Kentucky blue graps
were in a wild state. The first named
in fact, came into vogue only about a
hundred and thirty years ago, and
the others have been scarcely more
than a century under cultivation.
The sameis true of thegraius, although
the date of their‘•taming” isof course,
much more romantic. De Candolle
thinks the native habitat of the wheat
plant has been discovered, and Indian
corn once grew wild, whether in Asia
or America is a point on which au
thorities differ.
It is therefore a very reasonable
suggestion that what has been done
maybe done again in the way of re
deeming wild grasses from their sav
age Btate and making them more sub
servient to the use of man than they
now are. Prof. Bessey has done weil
to call attention to the subject, and
to point out the method of experi
menting with wild grasses so as most
directly to reach the desired result.
The points of most importance to
be kept in mind when making these
experiments are as follows: First, be
sure that the species is adapted to
the locality in which it is intended to
be grown; second, find out by experi
ment whether it is a variety that will
be eaten with relish by even a well-fed
beast; third, it should be determined
whether it is capable of being success
fully grown under cultivation, and
finally, whether it can be easily pro
pagated.
If these points can be so far
determined as to indicate that the
plant is worthy of further trial, its
nutritive value may be ascertained
by chemical analysis, and the process
of improvement may be entered upon
with a good basis for hope that a
useful plant will be developed. The
process of improvement consists
simply in the selection of seeds from
the best specimens growing wild,
subjecting them to the most favorable
conditions of growth, selecting seeds
again from the best specimens, and so
on for a number of years, until satis
factory development of plant and
seed has been attained. The process
may be hastened by high cultivation
and by the choice of a good strong
soil the experimental plantation.
This is a fascinating as well as use
ful undertaking, for what could more
surely awaken the interest stimulate
the curiosity of a bright-minded, in
telligent farmer than to watch the
progress of these wild denizens of
meadow and plain toward a higher and
more useful life,under thetuition of his
own mind and hand. And he would
have before him also the noble stimu
lus of being recognized, should he
succeed, as a benefactor of mankind;
for if he is one who causes two blades
of grass to grow where one grew be
fore, surely the discoverer of a new
and useful variety*is entitled to equal
if not greater honor.
Without attempting to suggest par
ticular species of wild grasses for ex
periment in any locality, Prof. Bessey
mentions a few of which trial might be
make, such as switch grass—Panicum
virgatum L.—big blue stem—Audro
pogon provincialis Lam.—bushy blue
stem—Audropogon nutans L.—moun
tain timothy—Alopecurus prateusis
L., wild ribbon grass—Phalaris arun
dinacea L.,—Muhlenberg’s grass—
Muhlenberga glomerta Trin.,—large
bent grass—Agrostis grandis Trin.,—
wild June grass—Kceleria cristata
Pers.,—Buffalo bunch grass—Fescuta
scabrella Torr,—and wheat grass—
Agropyrum glaucuni R. and S.
Why should not many farmers, and
farmers’ sons and daughters, interest
themselves in this scheme of enlarging
the ij»nge of useful grasses? If they
failed in securing the main object, they
would at least get a vast deal of
pleasure out of the endeavor, and
much useful information.
One Hundred Per Cent Profit.
Our sheep business dates bock
farther than I can remember. Its or
igin on the mother’s side was three
superlative native ewes, that sheared
2% pounds of wool each. We have
never bought an ewe since, but haye
sold probably upward of 2,000 sheep,
all our own production, and our stock
in trade today numbers 475 all told.
A year ago last May we sheared 300
sheep, last May 430, so that our flock
for the year averaged about 400,
from which our books show a direct
income of $1,700, besides the surplus
numbers we have on hand over our
averaged numbered flock, and im
provement over the original stock
with an average of 21, pounds of wool
per head, to an average for the 430
last May of 10% pounds per head.
Then in conclusion. Why do we
keep sheep? Certainly not becauso
we have no experience with otherlines
of stock, as we are continuous pro
ducers of sheep, hogs; cattle find grain.
And they prove most remunerativoto
ms, all things consufered, in tho trdei
named. ' \
The dairy business, though disagree
ably confining, seems to be overdone,
especially in the production o( bitter,
solid rubbery, and indigestible cheese.
While for the near future of the beei
question wo are with everybody else,
hopeful. Still the discouragements ol
the present and the near past need no
mention. Of the grain fed to the hog,
the fewest fertilising elements ever get
back to the land iroin whence they
came, while the living of our sheep
costs us the least, they do the most;
toward keeping the farm clear of fool
weeds, tax the soil least that feeds
them and strengthens it most, are the
least conlining to attend; cause us the
least trouble, are the most quiet, con
tented and easily handled; keep the
farm in the best produeing condition,
and the dollars that come to u*
through them, come the easiest of any
that find their way into out languish
ing purse.—W. L. Ames, in Wisconsin
Institute.
Making Timothy Hay,
In my observations in the past, on
the farm, I noticed that- where the
wheat had been frozen out and the
ground had been sown to timothy, in
binding the grass into bundles it
cured out and made hay. It cured
perfectly green, in short, was per
fectly cured liny. This observation
induced us to try the binder in the
general work in making timothy 01
mixed hav.
We set the binder to cut a stubble
four inches high. The advantage gain
ed in cutting the stubble this bight, is
that the ground is not left so bare as
to bs burnt with hot summer sun and
the after-growth will st'-rt sooner and
cover the giound and protect tin
roots of grass. We use three horses
with the bundle carrier, with one man
to drive and one to shock, and can
put up a great amount of hay per
fectly secure in one day, putting nine
sheaves in a shock, or eight sheaves
and one cap.
As we go along I wish to mention my
mistakes also. Last year we were in
too much of a hurry and put in three
joads before it was cured. We hauled
it in as soon as you would hay cured
in swath. The consequence was, three
loads of spoiled hay- Thecorrect wav
is to let it remain in shock until
thoroughly cured, something like
wheat or oats, just so it does not kill
the grass where the shocks stand.
Hay put up this way the rains will
not damage and the butts of the
sheaves will be perfectly bright. The
advantages gained so far are: A small
number of hands, more rapid work;
one load of the same bulk, binder-cut,
will make twice the number of pounds
of hay cut the old way; the sam-ad
vantage is also gained in the barn
room; a barn filled with binder-cut
hay will hold twice the number of I Its.
os hay mAde in the old way, pro
vided the sheaves are laid as we would
lay sheaves of wheat in stack.
I wish to note here that the sheaves
want to be bound well toward the
butt, for in handling the hay is in
clined to crawl out of the band it
bound otherwise. The sheaves bound
ordinary size weigh seven pounds
each, making it easy to feed an equal
amount at each feed.—A. 8. Frosiuan
in Ohio Farmer.
oex or poultry at will.
Can the sex of poultry beeontrolled?
We have the assurances of one of our
advertisers that the sex of nnimals is
at the will of man, but long and care
ful study of egg markings and other
experiments have so far developed no
correct guide for producing the re
quired sex in poultry. Approximate
results, however, seem now to be ob
tained m this direction by B. F. Rob
erts of Leighton, Cal. llis rule, as
evolved by repeated tests, is that
“the most vigorous of the parents will
control the sex and mark it the op
posite of its own.” That is a male in
full maturity and vigor will produce
female offspring when crossed on fe
males of less vigor, and vice versa. Of
course invariable results should not
be expected, but when a large per cent
of the chicks are the desired sex the
end is practically achieved. Mr. Rob
erts says in the California Orchard
and Farm:
“My matings this season were made
with a view to the production of ns
many pullets as possible. My cocks
are therefore fully matured and' mated
with my most promising pullets. The
result, thus far, has heen a success,
fully 75 percent of my hatch being
pullets. If I should desire cockerels I
would mate an 8 or 9 months old
cockerel with 2 or 3 year old liens: or,
if I desired an equal distribution of
the sexes I would endeavor to have
the parents as nearly equal as possi
ble. The latter result will be acknow
ledged as the experience of those who
allow their chickens of both sexes to
run together the year round."
Farming Notes.
Ducks are somewhat hardier and
much easier to raise than chickens,
and usually pay well.
It costs less to run an incubator
than to bed the hens required to
hatch an equal number of chicks.
Few men have the knack to handle
more than a hundred fowls and care
for them properly. ,
The incubator has passed the ex
perimental stage and is now in use
by practical men all over the soun
try.
Manure from the poultry house,
composted with a double bulk ol
loam makes a better corn fertilizer
than any you can buy.
The heavy hauling trade of the city
wants draft liorsesexc usively, but on
a large farm in the west horses with
some go in them are also necessary.
The horse breeder must carefully select
his market before lie goes i.ito the
business.
