CARING FOR THE WHEAT CROP.
Now that harvesting is about over ,
the harvester must mature plans for
getting the grain out o the , fields ,
Stacking the wheat before threshing
and letting the stacks stand from four
to tix weeks is the old way of get
ting the field clear for pasture. The
cradle and harvesting machine left
considerable grain loose in the field ,
and the swine herd was made the
gleaners. The earlier the stubbie
could be pastured , trie more gram
would be saved. There is no better
way to grow young stock hogs than
to give them the range of a stubble
field rich with grain and tender young
clover. Stacking early not only gives
an opportunity to turn on early but
the trouble of keeping the shocks uj.
is saved , and when there is consider
able wind and rain , setting the whea
up is no small item of expense. Again
where stacking tthe grain is practiced
there is much labor saved at thresh
inz time. Stack threshing throws the
work at a very busy time. At a time
when the farmer can not afford to
stay away from his corn , his clover
or his threshing for any reasonable
hire.
Stacks will leak unless the work is
well done ; the middle must be kep
full. Should the bundles incline to
ward the center they are sure to car
ry a part of the water into the cen
ter of the stack.
If the middle ofthe stack is not
as full as it should be , oftentimes rak
ing the slopes down well , freeing
them of all loose straws and bending
the butts so as to make the surface
elope downward , will throw the rain
out. Beating the surface with a board
breaking the butts downward wil'
often save a very faulty stack ot
wheat. In parts of Ohio and in man }
other sections of the country large
barns are built for sheltering the
wheat before it is threshed. The ad
vantages of stacking are obtained b >
this method and the danger of loss
through continous rains is entirely eli
minated. Then the straw is placed
near the barn every year , where it
can be used for tho bQdding of live
stock in winter. Stacking the grain
out of doors or threshing from the
shock oftentimes places the strau
> pile far out into the field , occupying
I A great deal of space , and is of no
! value for bedding , because it is too
1 far away.
The company plan of threshing
wneat is quite satisfactory. The
wheat is taken from the stack , the
thresherman furnishing all teams , all
hands , does the cooking , the far'mei
merely takes care of the threshed
grain. This plan could be profitably
followed in other extensive wheat-
growing sections. W. B. Anderson ,
in Indianapolis News.
V7HEN HOGS CAN'T WALK.
Men that were raised on New Eng
land farms have memories of great
fat hogs that for months before
slaughter were unable to stand on
their hind legs. The writer has seen
hogs that weighed .almost GOO pounds
that before slaughter had to move
around on their haunclies as on _ a
pivot. They ate and slept in the
same place , turning one way to eat
and the other to sleep. Their owners
thought it nothing unusual , they only
said : "The hog has become so fat
that he can't stand up. " Yet with
more light on the situation we know
that it was not a case of fatness only ,
but a case of constant feeding of
uiich the ani
corn and slop , out of
mal could not manufacture any bone
or muscle that would suustain his
weight. In those days the food of
such ho 3 was corn as largely as it
is now. Had those animals received
a ration composed of ground oats
skim milk and such nitrogen-supply
ing foods tlicy would have 'had ' bone
and muscle that would Tiave carried
about any weight. The same results
come from the same causes now , but
is not so apparent , as the hogs are
marketed at half the weight they
were in the days mentioned. No man
should feed a corn diet exclusively
to his hogs.
BUILDING STABLE FLOORS.
Horses , when confined , need good
floors on which to stand and in order
to secure a pitch in them sufficient for
all liquids to drain rearward , a good
way is to have the planks six inches
wide , five inches thick at one end
and two inches thick at the other
end. These should be laid two layers
thick. With the thick end under the
manger , the first or lower layer 'should '
be put down as closely as the planks
can be driven ' = o as to make them
water-tight if possible. Assuming
the foundation is level , this will give
a fall of about five inches to carry
water away. Tio top layer should
then be put on with the thick end
of the planks at the outer end of the
stall , thus bringing the floor up to
a perfect level , the only natural posi
tion for a horse to stand. The top
planks for three feet in the center
of the stall should be three-quarters
of an inch apart. Owing to the slant
of the layer underneath , the urine
then has a chance to run away and
as a consequence the stall is always
dry. Especially is thisi so if , in clean
ing out the stable a small square
hook is used to run down the grooves
in the upper layer , insuring a clear
passage for the liquids at all times ,
The Epitomist.
CUTTING ALFALFA EARLY.
Those who are "having their first
experience 'with alfalfa are likely to
make the mistake of waiting until
the crop is too far advanced before
cutting it ; a serious mistake , because
it gets woody if allowed to ripen.
The usual plan is to cut itwhen
it is from one-fifth to one-tenth in
bloom , doing the work in the morning
and letting it dry just enough so
that the leaves do not fall. It is then
raked into small windrows and al
lowed to dry some before hauling it
to the barn. How much it should
dry will depend somewhat on the
weather , but with a whole day of
bright sunshine this is sufficient , the
idea being not to let it dry enough
eo that the leaves fall in hanuKng.
The windrows should be turned at
least once so that the alfalfa can dry
some on the underside. Should it
rain while the crop is drying let it
remain out of doors another day , nev
er put it in the barn wet. Each
crop may be cured in the manner
specified , and when housed will keep
in good condition , provided it is not
wet when put in the barn. Indiana ?

HOW TO WATER A HORSE.
Articles written by the English
veterinarian , Pately Bridge , are al
ways practical and instructive. In
the London Farm and Home he dis
cusses the watering of a horse , about
which there is so much conflict ol
opinion , as follows :
Writing recently concerning a re
current case of colic in a gelding.
"Potter" said. "I think the driver
gives him water after hisfeed. . " This
suggest the common theory that
when water is given to a horse after
feeding , especially after the consump
tion of grain , the food becomes wash
ed out of the stomach before it has
been properly digested.
Watering horses la a subject of con
siderable importance in connection
with the every day management ol
the animal , and lias a distinct bearing
on the digestion of its food and the
occurance of diseases associated with
failure to do so. There are horse
owners and responsible servants wnc
have got their own ideas as to the
best and proper time to water , and
while a majority believe that horses
should be watered before feeding , and
practice it , there are "some who are
equally certain that feeding should
precede watering. Others there are
who think it does not matter .so that
the watering is regular.
New Source of Starch.
In a bulletin of the Jamaica Depart
ment of Agriculture H. H. Cousins ,
the government chemist , states that
the high percentage of starch in the
cassava makes the latter more valu
able than the potato as a source of
this substance. The cassava is also
not subject to the fungoid diseases
prevalent in the German potato fields ,
from which a large proportion of the
starch now sold in Great Britain is
derived. The cassava season is unre
stricted , and this gives a further im
portant advantage over the one-crop-
a-year potato.Ir. . Cousins apparent
ly believes that the manufacture of
starch from the cassava can be done
so cheaply that the German potato
starch will be driven from the Eng
lish market.
French or Greek ?
[ f French is taught as carefully as
Greek it seems to serve the disciplin
ary purposes which Greek formerly
served. The only difficulty is that
there are as yet relatively few teach
ers who make French a means of
mental discipline , and that those who
think they teach it best are often the
ones wlio really teach it worst , be
cause they let apparent proficiency
in speech conceal the lack of real
training in thought. Wherever the
Did fashioned arguments against
3 reek are regarded as true it will
probably be desirable to study Greek ,
because very few people will teach
anything else properly. But when
Dnce the error of those arguments is
recognized the special need for the
? tudy of Greelc will have gone , and
jther things are likely to be substi-
: uted. President Hadley of Yale in
London Outlook.
Slaughter of the Innocent.
This tale comes from New Gale-
Ionia , where a ship was loading up
with natives to work in Australia :
'There was a man and a girl a
, -oung couple , they seemed. She had
i youngster , who began yelling at
sight of the boat. 'Can't take that
youngster ! ' the boss shouted. The
.vonian said she wanted to come , too.
No , we can't ship that squalling lit-
le beast. Leave him with his aun-
ie. ' There was no auntie in sight.
3o the Kanaka man , after taking a
ook around caught the kiddie by the
icels , swung her round like a rabbit ,
ind dashed her head agin a tree.
She was only a girl anyway , " he
laid , and slung her body into the
icrub. Then they both hopped Into
he oat and were shipped aboard. "
Bad Memories.
Many people complain of having a
bad memory , as if it were something
they could not help , like a headache ,
or some similar ailment ; yet even that
can be helped nowadays by the appli
cation of a little common sense. After
all , there is no reason why anybody
should have a bad memory. It is mere
ly a matter of training and is , more
over , a matter in which it is never too
late to attend to its training. For
grown-ups many methods are advo
cated , all of them , no doubt , based on
the principle of mental concentration.
In a young child the faculty can bo
cultivated by making the child do-
scribe everything it has seen in its
morning walk , taking care that no fact
is exaggerated , but that strict atten
tion is paid to truth in every detail.
In the mutter of memorizing it is an
excellent plan to let the child learn
one line of poetry a day , which it
should repeat the following morning ,
and at the end of a week it will be
able to say the seven linos. The young
brain should not be overloaded with
knowledge , but allowed to assimilate
a fragment each day.

The artist and a friend went for a
walk along the Embankment one won
derfully starry night. Whistler had
been in a very discontented mood al'
day and inclined to liiul fault witL
everything. Nothing pleased him ttc
houses were ugly , the river was no ;
what it might have been , the light ;
hard and glaring. His friend pointed
outseveral things that appealed to hiir
as beautiful , but the master would no'
give in.
"No , " he said , "Nature is only some
times beautiful only sometimes-
very , very seldom indeed and to-nigh ;
she is , as so often , positively ugly ! ' '
"But the stars ! Surely they are lim
to-night ? " urged the other.
Whistler looked up at the sky.
"Yes , " he draAvIod , "they're not bad
perhaps , but , my dear fellow , there's
too many of them ! "
