THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE, LXNCOLN, NEB., THURSDAY , JULY 30, 1891. THE FABM ASD FIELD. INTERESTING SUBJECTS FOR RURAL READING. Prrvtlon of Manur Plant that Flavor Buttar Hilling Po tato Depth of Good SoU. Preservation of Manur. The Juno bulletin (So. 32) of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station contain a great deal of sug gestive information with regard to va rious kinds of fertilizers. In the pages devoted to the barnyard manures there are two or three sections relat ing to the fermentation of such ma nures, and the proper methods of caring for them to prevent the loss of fertalizing constituents. That there is a vast amount of indifference not to say ignorance among farmers with regard to the losses they suffer in con sequence of the heating or leaching of their stores of manure is too painfully evident to those who have looked in to the matter. But the conditions under which farming is nowconducted inthiscoun try in all the older States, and even in many of the nower sections, are auch that wiser methods are becom ing imperative. Farmers cannot longer afford to cart "the ghosts of their manure piles," as an English writer expressed it, into their fields, for the stored up fertility which gave th m fair crops in spite of the mock er of fertilizing material they labor iously applied to them is largely ex hausted. Tiny must learn to hus band all their fertilizing resources and utilize them to the best advan tage in order to maintain unimpaired the fruitfulness of liioir farms. The suggestions of tho agricultural station bulletin are, therefore, of jjreat value, even if they m trite to those who have learned, years ago, that waste in the barnyard means poverty in tho bam. . There fire two principal wys, it ays, in which stable manures com monly loses some of its fertilizing con stituents llrst, by improper methods of fermentation, and, second, by leaching. In regard to the first point, more or less nitrogen is lost by al lowing manure to ferment without sufficient moisture; especially is this apt to be true in the case of horse manure, which decomposes very rap idly. A strong odor coming from a manure heap indicates that wasteful fermentation is takingploce. This source of loss can be avoided by keepina the manure heap moisten ed with water or by sprinkling land plaster about the stables to be mixed constantly with the accumulations or by using dry earth as an absorbent. Only nitrogen compounds can be lost by vaporization. My leaching there will be a loss of not only nitrogen compounds, but of potash and phos phoric acid also. The common method of storing farm-yard manure for several months under the eaves of the barn often, if not generally, results in ft loss of one half or more of the fertilizing consti tuents bv leaching; and, moreover, the materials thus leached out by rain are the more easily soluble portions of the manure, and hence the more valuable portions. Another point of great importance in connection with the preservation of stable manure is the saving of the urine. The common practice is to let this go to waste, But, as shown in one of the stables of the Bulletin, the liquid is, in most instances, much more valuable than the solid portions. Thus the solid fresh excrement of cattle contains only half as much nitrogen and about one-fifth as tiuich potash as the fresh urine. The difference between the solid manure and the urine of tho horse is greater still, while the fertilizing con stituents of the urine areentirely solu ble, and therefore more readily avaif able for plant food than those of solid excre.nent. To let the former go to waste, therefore, while utilizing the latter is much as if an orchard ist should carefully pick out for sale the poorest of his fruit and leave the rent to rot on tho trees. The main object in caring for barn yard manure is to prevent the loss of compounds containing nitrogen, pot ash and phosphoric acid. When the manure is kept for tome time before being carted afield, the three princi pal points to be observed are these: 1. Sftve.the liquid manure by means of litter, using in addition land plaster or some form of dry earth, such as peat or muck. 2. Keep the manure heap in a suffi ciently moist condition. 3. Protect carefully from leaching by min. With regard to the first point it is Htiggested that the use of too much litter diminishes the relative value of manure and add to the cost of handl ing; but enough litter should be used not only to ahsord and retain the urine, but also to nhsord any am monia that may he formed in the pro cess of cWoinpoaitioil. Hilling Potatoes, E eriments made by us, 20 years Ago and more, showed that ( he com mon and almost universal practice of drawing the earth up in small hills round potato plants was attended with conxiderablii loss. The practice was fuuaded on the erroneous suppo sition that all the roots hd tuber wr ton lined within A narrow space ot comparatively few Iiu-Imw around each plant, and that a dwpbnl of arth In a narrow hillock was hut What was anted.

Count the bushels of each when due. and it will be found that those from the flat rows have from ten to twenty per cent more po tatoes. 'Hi ere may sometimes be very pe culiar conditions of tlx soil shallow soil or rocky, or otherwise which may modify the result; but for common ground, plowed at a good depth and planted deep enough, there is but one result. We observe that the Michigan station has modified this test by placing manure between the rows, where the long horizontal roots could feed from it with better returns than by manuring in, under or over the hill. Albany Cultivator. Plants Tnat Flavor Buttr. A grass which should be the dairy man's favorite, owing to the sweet scented fragrance it communicates to the milk, is the Venial grass(anthox anthum odoratum). It springs up early in the spring, flowers and scents the air with its fragrance. As a grass for exclusive feeding it will not rank high, but when mixed properly with the other more nutritious grasses it gives a fragrance to the whole mass which is very delightful. No grass probably flavors milk, ream and Latter so directly and noticeably as this sweet scented Ver nal grass, and where it is found in abundance in the fields growing along with the other varieties, the butter made from that section has a distin guishing and exquisite taste. When this crass is mowed and stowed away in the silo with other grasses it gives A splendid milk food lor winter feeding. On large dairy farms it is well worth the trouble to scatter some of the wed of the Vernal grass in tho pastuies. The result in the flavor of the milk and butter will soon be notio able. Where fancy butter is made a specialty this grass is an essential to the pastures. The fragrance of the grass is due to the presence of gum benzoin or benzo ic acid, which can be dissolved in cold water. Butter washed in- water in which the grasses have been soaking will lose its rancidity to a large ex tent. Ensilogo butter is often desti tute of true llavor, and it con only be flavored by artii'.cia! methods or by adding some such fragrant grass to the silo which will impart it sweet ness to the milk before it leaves tho cows. E. 1'. Buiith in Amoricun Culti vator. Depth of Good Boll. The opinions of farmers differ, though not more widely than the facts on which they are based, ns to the depth that soil may be profit ably cultivated. Ia the best soils plant food is found deeper than the plow can ever go. This, however, is mainly mineral. Vegetable matters collect near tho surface. If they are deep, as they sometimes are, the low er portions are generally filled with stagnant water. Borne settlers on block muck soil in the west thought they had secured land of inexhausti ble fertility, mainly because it was black to a great depth.. They found after a while that however deep their muck beds, only the part that could be thoroughly dried during the growing season was of any use to them. What such land needs most is thorough drainage. As soon as it gets this, however, the muck bed be comes thinner, as its carbon burns by exposure to sun and air. Then comes the severest test. If tho original soil in deficit in mineral plant food the lar king elements must soon be sup plied. But whether poor or rich in mineral plant food, supplies of potash and phosphate will be needed. How ever poor the vegetable matter may be, its decomposition will liberate ammonia enough togoa long way to ward supplying grain crops, provided phosphate is furnished. But where ever the subsoil is sandy, potash is also probably ncoded. Wood ashes are nearly always beneficial to muck lands, as the caustic potash they con tain hastens decomposition of vege table food, besides making phosphate nlso more available. Correspondent New York Tribune. Truck Farming This industry, according to a bulle tin recently issued by.the census office at Washington, has assumed surpris ing proportions. Truck farming is considered by the statistician as dis tinct from market gardening. ' Tho former is carried on in favored locali ties at a distance froin market, water and rail transportation being neces sary, while tho latter is conducted near local markets, the grower of vege tables using his own team for tran sporting his products direct to either t lie retailer or consumer. I'pward of $100,01)0,0(10 are investad in this in dustry in the United States, the an nual products reaching a value of $7(1,517,153 on the farms after pay ing freiuhts and commissions, realized upon fiU i, HO aires of land.

Mich., spoke at th Washington high school to the girls of the school during hid visit recently. He opened bis remarks by announo ing that he wa going to say some very unpleasant things about young ladies. Notwithstanding their tood-looklng faces, he said, most o" them are crippled and dvformed. ' Tho doctor has devoted fifteen years to the study of the human figure. He has made measurements of th Mexican, the Italian, German and French peasants and compared the size of their waists with those of American girls, and he has come to the conclusion that th average American woman is deformed, that her waist is too small for her body. Ho had compared the waist measure ment with the height, and, at a result of 1,200 measurements, found that the average waist measurement Is only 99 per cent of the height The average waist of the American woman Is 24.6 Inches. The waist of the Venus de Mllo is 47 per cent of the height With such a waist as that a woman could draw a groat big' breath. The waist of a woman, he said, ought to be larger than a man's, be cause her liver is larger. Ho said "a smaller heart but a larger liver." but not pleasing the young ladles by this remark he added: "Only in quantity; in quality It is otherwise." The doctor said that those organs which should be above the waist line are so pressed down by tight clothing as to make woman deformed. He called particular attention to the fact that although a woman doubled in weight the measurement of her waist didn't Increase At alL Whiloln Washington the last few days Dr. Kellogg has measured tho waists of twelve little girls in a pri vate school and found the smallest waist was 23 Inches. Tho average was 2i inches; one was 25) Inches, and one 26 Inches, and those waists, he said, will become smaller at the glrli grow older. These restrictions of the waist cause many other deformities, such as hol low chosls, drooping and round shoulders. Dr. Kollogg did not see any reason why women should not be as strong as men. The doctor spoke of the Swiss women who carry heavy burdens on their shoulders up and down hills, and said they aro among tho healthiest women In tho world. Ho showed by diagrams that tho same evils occasioned In women by tight clothes wore to bo found In men who wore bolts. New York Commer cial advertiser.

Fishes bava boon found, It Is said, ih r oo miles below the surface of the ocoan says the fL Louis Ropubllo, and when a specialty has been mado of doop-soa sounding, as in the voyago of H. M. 6. Challenger and others, the very greatest ocean dopths have boon found to be very populous. Plants, on the contrary, do not live In tho very deepest waters, and it is supposed, therefore, that the dcep-soa animals either proy upon each other or got their food from doad organisms and plants which sink to the bottom. The phosphorescent flahos, those which light up the waves about them so brilliantly, are found as far as a mllo bolow the surface. The most of the flxho found In what arc called the "abyssal zones" have only rudimentary eyes. Some have only long feelers, but these enable them to grope their way about at the bottom of the sea. On the other hand, there are several "abyssal" species of fishes which have eyes so largo that they are wholly out of proportion to tho rest of their bodies. Tbeso are supposed to follow their phosphorescent brethren, which act as beacon lights in the mazy dopths of old Neptune's trackloss wastes. The light of some of these ocean lamp posts, which have been brought to the surface by doop-sea dredgers, are so bright that during the brlof space the animal survives it is easy to read by tho light, even though the night be one of "Egyptian darkness." The reason that fishes and mollusks living oven three miles undor water are able to bear tho pressure of the waves above thorn, which is one ton to the square Inch at tho depth of only a mile, is because they have exceedingly loose tissues, which allow tho wator to flow through evory Interstice ltke It would through tho pores of a sponge, thus equalizing tho weight. Indeed, It Is asserted, tho main cause of their dying almost immediately upon being brought to tho surface, Is because tho accustomed pressure has been re moved. According to the naturalists of the Challenger exedltlon, all species of shark brought up from a depth of over two mllos aro doad be fore they roach the surfaco.

Kaw Tark City O a Baataaraat Thai la What' OrlutaL On Washington street, that great street full of foreign market, there It A Turkish restaurant, says the New York Recorder. The entrance is not inviting and the arrangement insid at a trifle the worse for wear. Tb divans or red velvet are out very oloan, but the carpets art genuine Turkish and the waiters are not Amer ican colored men, but genuine Egyp tian blacks. They speak Arabia and Turkish and very little English, though they trifle with French, You ask for dinner. A quaint oriental bottle, with designs in gold, sed. And blue, together with A tiny liquor glass similarly ornamented, was brought upon a bronze tray and placed upon an octagon ball tat beside tbt low divan upon which you havt curled yourself. The maglo word Taki" is all that Is uttered and you help your self to a glass of the Mohammedan's favorite aniseed smelling bitters to give you an appotlte and to help you digest what Is coming. A pure whits) cloth is laid on the carpet in front of you, and a bowl of tepid water, soent ed with roses, and A towel, form the next dinner appliances. Then comes plate after plat of sweetmeats arranged in front of you, together with all sorts of dried fruit Everything is candled. The names of some art interesting, though some what bewildering. Hah at lakhoum, hadjl beklr lokoom, lot helva tnbln helvA, keafte (grapes), abdll-leili (a very nutritious African fruit), tout (mulberries), " klshnlsh, fousdonk, green plstache, almonds, figs, walnuts in a sort of paste, apricots in pas tille, and Sultana raUtns. But you don't begin yet. There is tbt pleot do resistance, tha pilau, a sort of stow made of mutton, onions and rlco. Koushkouscn, or caush-oousch, as it il pronounced by different dialects, is brought over to this country ready prepared to make this really delicious dish. None but an oriental can make it properly. The rich gravy in which are found tho tender morsels of meat flavored with invisible onions sends up a most savory smell, and the white, mealy rice which surrounds tho whole counteracts toe extreme richness. Then there art beans and peas and lantls (a species of lentl). Now comes the glut of sweetmeats, and after or with thorn the black tea or coffee in tiny cups and very strong, and tho few delicious whiffs from a narghile or hubble-bubblo pipe, or from the long chibouk, taken while you lie back sleepily on tho soft pil low of the divan. Now, too, you may indulge In a bottle of Cyprus or Ha lonlcan wine, for wine must be taken after .and not during meals. The atmosphere of the restaurant is not refreshing, but you got accustomed to it, and before you art half way through the rich and almost voluptuous meal you quite understand why Turks aro to fat and so easy going, why they love to tit snd dream and tmokt And say nothing; why opinion Is not noces sary to them; why thoy are lymphatlo and lazy, and why they can never bt roused to push and struggle and com pote with occidentals. Their very mode of living and feeding it condu cive to a happy-go-lucky laziness which only wakes up to drive A bar gain or to fight for that heaven which their religion teachoa them is sure to be the final lot of tvory man who falls in battle with his face to the foe. ABOUT "THE GOLDEN ROD," NtqgaUr Prafarasos ot ths Children Is Voting- for Stata Flower. As the golden rod it llkoly to be the New York State flowor, nominated and elected by the school children, sayt tha New York Herald, perhaps they would like to know more about It It is a large gonus or family, con taining upward of eighty speolos or members, confined almost entirely to North America, One species is found in England and on the continent, also In temperate Asia, two in South Amorlca and ono in the Azoros. What peculiar fitness this plant has to entltlo it to tho distinction of bolng tho state flower tho children alone know. It Is nothing more than a per nicious weed. It impoverishes the soil where It grows, and it Is a signifi cant fact wmt It found the vast major ity of its supportori among tho city school children, whose knowledge of it was doubtless confined to the em broidered cnrlcaturos of it done by tholr mammas and grown sisters. Thoir llttlo ears no doubt were pleased with Its euphonious title of golden rod," and thus their hoarts wore won and their votes cast for this farmers' pest. Tha country children know It boltor and looked upon It with disdain, preferring to vote (or the roso and other mora arUtoorutio candidate. A field of golden rod has charms of its own, and visitors from abroad, whore It Is almost unknown; become enraptured with It and carry away pleasant memories of our field clothed in richest golden yellow, but dally as sociation with It wou'd quickly deatrof this foellug. It harsh, coarse stem and leaves, the dry, artificial-looking, scentless spikes of gaudy flower are without charm for anyone with the least pre tence to knowledge of tho buautlful in nature.
