lower layers of the soil, where the can
not bo utiiiwwl by the plant, or are en
tirely removed in the drainage.
Fdmond (lain, a French authority,
baa shown tlmt tlm water requirement
of plants differ widely at different
stage of growth, His observations
show tlmt it would bo very injur!
ou to the plum, even u it were pos
sible, to maintain a uniform state of
moisture in the soil, He observed, for
instance, that for tho ordinary fann
crop tho optimum, or most favorable
amounts, of moisture In the soil at dif.
rerent stages or growtn were aoout a
follows: At the time of planting the
soil should have about 20 per cent of
the total amount of water which it i
capable of holding; then it should fall
to 15 ist cent and remain at this point
until the first leaves aro formed, when
it should be raised quickly to nearly 40
per cent, it should bo allowed! to fall
rapidly to about Ml per cent and remain
at this point until shortly before flow
erlng, when it may Iw raised graduully
to 40 is cent and then allowed to fall
rapidly to 12 nr 16 per cent, where it
remains during fruiting and maturity,
jirieffy, then, the soil should bo only
modiratc)y moist at time of planting
an1 comparatively dry thereafter until
the first leaves aro formed, when it
should be thoroughly irrigated. It
should then Is allowed to become com
paratively dry and remain so until the
flowering singe, when it should huvu its
most liberal irrigation, After this It
shiaild Isi allowed to become dry during
fruiting aud maturity. (Jf course this
represents ideal conditions which can
not bo completely secured in practice,
but it suggests bow irrigation wator
may bo greatly ocouomimxl at the samo
time that the most favorable conditions
of growth are so ured for tho crop.
'J Ills alternation of dry aud wet
periods has another imiiortunt point in
Its favi on ordinary soils. Ifilgard has
shown that it furnlshe the ideal condi

ent of tho soil rise to the surface.

BARNYARD MANURE.

As every fanner knows, if the manure
heap is too loosely built tho docomposi
tion is too rapid. The materials usu:
for the formation of humus in tho soil
are destroyed, and the nitrogen, estw
cially that of the urine, escape into the
air, largely in the form of ammonia. On
the other bund, if tho manure is too
firmly pocked the decomposition may
be too slow and the manure will not be.

in a bulletin issued by the department
of a method employed in tho prepara
tion of this well rotted manure in
France: The manure is placed on slight

ment, so arranged that tho leochings
drain out into a pit from which they aro
pumped up and distributed over tho
manure heap. It is usual to provide two
manure plats so arranged that when one
is fall (when the manure is eight to ton
foot high) it may bo allowed to ferment
undisturbed while tho other is used.
The manure is carried from the stables
to the top of the uiannro heap in wheel
barrows over on inclined plane of boards.
Cure is also taken to smooth down the
ides of the heap to prevent the too free
access of air and tho loss of teachings.

SOWING FALL WHEAT.
Method to II Aoltld The Pre Drill
Command IUelf.
It is seldom that full wheat ground is
well prepared. There is no danger o:
working wheat land too much, provided
the ground is.m(slerutely dry. If mois
ture is abundant, cure must lie used, as
In prepuring ground for (Tops in spring
many uegltx:t curiful lining and com
pooling of wheat ground. They claim
thut it is better to have tho surface
rough, so that the snow will bo hel
and tho tender plants protected. While
there may bo some advantage in this, it
is not to bo considered, says ThoOrango
Judd Fanner, which offers tho reason
why as follows:
If tho soil is loose and the opening
between tho particles large, tho ground
will dry out so readily Unit tho youi
wheat plants perish or aro badly stunt
ed during tho fall, even if there is sulli
dent moisture to germiuato tho grain
Growth will bo so foohlo that tho plant
will fall nn easy prey to insect lswl
and tho heaving effect of frost. It has
been clearly demonstrated that a vigor
ous plant will resist the attack of pust
quite effectually, In fact, the best way
to fight chinch bugs is to secure by fer
timing Heavily a strong, rapid growth,
Tho increase hi the yield of grain more
than pays for tho fertilizer aud tho ox
pense of applying it.
In some of the central western state
wheat is still sown broadcast upon tho
ground soon after it is plowed aud then
covered with a harrow. The Dractlcx
bos nothing to commoud it except the
small amount of labor rociuirod to out
in tho crop. Failures or partial failures
aro the rule. The method ought to Is,
abandoned, as it is not only unproflt
atdo, but on evidence of slovenly farm
uig.
Of all tho drills now in use tho press
drill commends itself. Tho grain is put
in tho ground to a good depth aud the
soil above tho sued is compacted so that
the moisture will bo retained until the
berry germinates aud gets sufficient
rootage to maintain tho plant. The com
ruon eight hoe drill is still very popular
ana noes gxxi work. Home manufiu:
turcrs at tuch a short chain to each hoe
so that It drags directly behind and in
a mcusuro compacts the soil above the
sood. Drills whore tho grain is covered
by disks, or two blades coming together
several inches buck of tho hoe, have
boon used extensively and with sutisuo-
tlou. Any implement tlmt will put tho
grain into the ground to a depth of two
or tnroo inches and cover it well will
usually bo satisfactory.
II there is a probability of attacks
nrom Hessian ny, it may pay to delay
mo seeding until tho eggs have been
laid in volunteer grain or strips sowed
early for this ptyposo, then turned un
dor to complete the destruction. As a
rule, however, early sewing is advisable
and one year with another tho largest
crops are raised from it.
Bowing small grains in standing com
till lias a few advocates. This is an
other method that is the cuuse of fre
quent failure aud almost invariably a
small yield. Tho only excuse for sowing

sired to get a cornfield into grass

It never pays to grow half or a third
of a crop under any circumstance, und

Winter Wheat.
In u recent diseusHiou in tho Iowa
liomesteiul it is mado to appear that
there is lens rihk in growing winter
wheat than the Npring variety. There
is a firm belief with some of tho writers
that wheat put in in seasou, in gout
ground ut tho right time of the year,
with thu right kind of preparation, will
stand a very jioor chance of failure.
There is a general opinion a well that
tho drill should lie used for putting the
wheat in the ground
Mtslerutely deep plowing is advocated
and thorough preparation also recom
mended. It is bent to roll or float land
well, and again in the wlutor or early
spring If tho ground gets dry and plant
are heaved up by the frost. Kurly plow
lug is Ut fur wheat, and the favorite
rotation is to follow oat with wheat.
Ground that ha Ixi n corned until it
