From Farmers' Review: Again' this
same old subject has come up lor a
rehearing. If we are to judge by the
divergence of opinions held by writers
in our various farm papers, it must
appear to novices a complicated ques
tion. I, for one, wish I had no more
difficult matters to deal with in horti
culture. People know that their chil
dren have to nave clothes according
to their sise. Different varieties of
fruit trees differ very much as to the
sirs of their growth. Location and cli
irate also play Important parts. A
Tallinn Sweet in some of our middle
and eastern states would need at least
forty feet each way. The same variety
grown in the northwest would not mei
thirty feet each way. If one were set
ting out Tetofskys twenty feet each
way would be an abundance of room.
One rule vannot be made to apply to
all varieties and all locations. The
most approved plan for setting apple
trees in the northwest, and one quite
generally adopted here by our best in
formed Horticulturists, as about this:
With the large growing varieties place
the rows thirty feet apart and set the
trees twenty eet apart In the rows. I
refer to such varieties as Talman
Sweet. Plum's Cider, and Northwest
Greening. Varieties like Tetofsky and
Whitney can be set ia rows twenty
feet apart, the trees being fifteen feet
apart in the rows. The rows should
run north and south, or, what is better
still. In the line of the sun in Febru
ary. This plan has beea thoroughly
tested here and this arrangement ot
the trees has proved to be a very Im
portant factor In protecting the trees
from sua killing, which has proved so
detrimental to orchards In the north
west Here we have too much hot
sun and dry air. In the eastern part
of the country they have too much
cloudy, damp weather aad not enough
sun. In setting apple trees one needs
to know hit varieties aad what each
one requires. He must also understand
his location and climate. By follow
ing this plan one can have the rows the
same distance apart east and west, but
can set the trees of smaller growth
closer together in the rows north and
south. This gives each variety Its
proper space and aids very much ia
making an orchard self-protecting.

From the Farmers' Review: A good
many plum trees have been planted in
this vicinity during the last few years,
and more are being planted each year.
While the native sorts do well and are
profitable, there is some doubt whether
the Japan plums will do well here. The
Abundance, a Japan variety, more
largely planted than any other variety,
bore a big crop in 1898. but failed to
bear crops the two following years.
The trees bloom full, but the fruit dees
not set I think the very cold winter
of 1898-9 injured the trees; but there
may be other causes for their failure
to bear. The Burbank (another Jap
anese variety), has produced well since
that cold winter, but the plums most
ly rot before ripening, as do all Euro
pean plums here unless very carefully
sprayed. Our European plums, Lom
bard. Niagara, Reine Claude and Jef
ferson, have set full of fruit nearly
every year, but have generally rotted.
We have found that spraying the Ni
agara and Jefferson gave us good crops
of plums on those trees. We began to
spray as soon as the petals had fallen,
using a weak Bordeau mixture and
parts green. We sprayed four or five
times at Intervals of tea to fourteen
days. The Niagara plums were very
good when cooked. We have tried six
or eight varieties of plums for canning,
but I think the quality of the Niagara
the best of all. We have sprayed for
the curcullas and believe that to be
cheaper than jarring, while it Is just
a aare. FRANK AIKIN,

From Farmers' Review: In reply to
D. A. Taylor's inquiries on Angora
goats, I beg to say there is nothing
that will equal the Angora goat for
clearing up brush land. We are bow
clearing up our second farm In five
years. The present farm consists of
500 acres. When we went on this farm
two years ago It was so thickly cov
ered with underbrush that a man on
foot could scarcely get through it
This piece of land was located in a
section near here where cleared land
was selling for from S40 to $75 per
acre. Today this land Is as clear of
underbrush as It Is possible to make
it, and the blue grass is now coming
on. We paid $7 per acre for the land.
Any one can figure the profit for them
selves, in a year from now h.n in
place of the brush there Is a good stand
of blue grass, instead of this land cost
ing IS to $10 per acre to dear. The
Angora did it and clothed and board
ed himself while doing it to say noth
ing of what he has done for us In oth
er ways breeding and so forth. The
average cost of carload lots of graded
does is from $4.50 to $6 per hundred
weight The cost of registered
does is from $10 to most any
pnee. some does recently sold at
auction in Kansas City for $275;
these, of course, were prise win
ners. They are prolific breeders, some
having twins and some only one kid
at a birth. There Is a regular demand
for them as mutton, either In Chicago
or Kansas City; some lots have
brought higher prices than mutton
sheep. As to the market for their
wool (mohair), we got SO cents per
pound for most of our spring clip. Ia
the same shipment we sent our sheep
cup sad received 15 and IS cents for It
"quite a difference, don't you think?"
They will stand any amount of cola;

has a better luster In the north than

From Farmers' Review: The marsh
lands referred to by F. K. in a recent
number of the Review must contain a
large proportion of vegetable matter.
We may, therefore, assume with a rea
sonable degree of fairness that the la
bor of draining might be largely ac
complished during the early fall and
winter while other farm work is slack.
My experience with such land Is quite
limited, but from what I know it is a
work not to be accomplished in a day.
Patience and endurance, with perse
verance will bring about astonishing
results. My plan would be to drain
as above Indicated, but if not practical
on account of freezing I would do the
work during, the summer season and
plow the land during the fall, if dry
enough. Otherwise it should remain
undisturbed until the water is suffici
ently drained out of the soil to permit
plowing without discomfort to either
team or plowman. If the proper con
dition for plowing is not obtainable the
first spring or fall after draining let It
stand until it Is. After plowing do
not hasten to get a crop upon it at
once, but let it have a winter's freez
ing and thawing, or exposure to a sum
mer's sun and rain. Both will he ben
eficial especially if it is stirred enough
during the summer season to keep
down the weeds, allowing none to go
to seed.
One of the first crops and one most
likely to succeed is rape, which may
be sown broadcast, and If not sown un
til the middle of June on clean ground
free from weeds will be able to take
care of itself until time to feed off
either with hogs or sheep; preferably
the latter. Pasture off two or three
rape crops in successive seasons, after
which It may be sown to millet, fol
lowed by barley, then to timothy.
These marsh Unas are likely too rich
in vegetable matter to seed to blue
grass and expect good returns. The
more profitable methods of farming for
the first few years will be cropping
either cereal or forage crops.
Just such lands, if not too heavy,
make the finest kind of land for the
growing of onions and celery. Some
of these same soils where properly
managed in growing the above crops
are to-day giving larger profits per
acre than any other lands of which I
have a personal knowledge. A few
years of cultivation will do much to
ward bringing these lands into con
dition to grow such garden crops as
onions and celery, and if the land is
not too light may after a few years
grow blue grass with no small degree
of success. J. Fremont Hickman, Ohio

To the merits' of American clover
seed the Secretary of Agriculture ia
his annual report testifies as follows:
"Owing to a controversy in Europe re
garding the relative value of American
and European clover seed, the depart
ment has undertaken some compara
tive experiments, the Initial series of
which was conducted at Washington.
Many samples ot clover seed of known
origa from the different countries ot
Europe and from different parts of the
United States and Canada were grown
ender like conditions. Cuttings of
hay were made at suitable Intervals,
the product of each plat being care
fully weighed. ' These experiments,
which have now been under way for
two years, show conclusively that un
der the conditions existing here the
European red clover is decidedly infe
rior in productiveness to the Ameri
can. Apparently the American strain
is better adapted to the conditions of
bright sunshine, periodic heat aad
dryness that exist here. For the pur
poses of our farmers, therefore, a de
cision of the question whether to use'
American or Imported seed Is easily
reached. During the past year a series
of supplementary experiments has
been started at typical selected areas
in different parts of the United States,
to see whether these results hold in
the principal clover-growing states."
We believe that it will pay many
of our readers to investigate what are
called the "trap nests." These nests,
as most of our readers know, are made
so that a hen about to lay goes in and
the entrance is automatically closed.
After laying she goes out of another
door into another yard. The layers are
thus kept separate from those that do
no laying. The idea is variously mod
ified. The man that wants to improve
the laying qualities of bis fowls will
find some form of this nest of assist
ance. There are some expensive pat
ented trap nests and there are others
used that are not patented and of small
cost Others can be made at home.

Although muck Is a subject that has
Seen written about much, it Is as yet
one that is only half uaderstood by
many fanners that have, often un
known to themselves, a bed of mack
available. One man says: "Haul out
your muck and mix It with the manure
at once." Another says, "By no means.
Dig up your muck in the fall and let
It lie in ridges, so that the frost can
work on it and through it" Both are
right, for each man Is speaking of a
particular kind of muck.
In a muck bed will often be found
two kinds of muck. That on top seems
to be moist black soil. It is so friable
that it falls easily into a disintegrated
mass. . Such muck. If tested with lit
mus paper, will often show almost no
acid. Such is ready for composting
at once or to be applied to land de
ficient in humus. Its readiness for ase
Is perhaps due aa much as anything to
the effect ot the frosts of maay win
ters. Below the first layer of muck will
often be found a cheesy mass. It is
sticky and is la that state of no value
for composting. It not infrequently
contains as high as 80 per cent ot wa
ter. If dug in the summer it dries out
hard and lumpy and is in that condi
tion fit only for fuel, tor which It Is
used in some European countries. To
reduce it to an available fertiliser It
should be heaped in long ridges in the
fall and left to the action of the frost
till it has taken on the character of
that to which reference was made
above. It may then.be composted or
used in its character as a humus
maker.

It is currently supposed that in ev
ery state the latitudes of fruit growing
lie directly east and west and that a
single point can be fixed as the north
ern or southern limit of the produc
tion of certain varieties. Such is not
the case. The heat lines govern them
selves largely by elevation. In the
state of Iowa, for instance, the fruiting
periods of the same varieties of fruit
move not directly north but Is toward
the Northwest It Is said that the

Probably there is no better preserva
tive of whole eggs than water glass.
The Farmers' Review some time ago
called the attention of its readers to
some experiments with it that had
been made in Europe. Since that time
preserving eggs in liquid glass has
been quite extensively tried both in
this country and In Europe. Some of
the most Interesting of these tests are
the ones carried on for nearly a year
by the Rhode Island Experiment sta
tion. Twenty-five separate tests were
made, the eggs being kept for from 7
to 11 months. In 19 of these tests all
the eggs were found to be good at the
ends of the periods. One test gave 9f
per cent good, 10 per cent bad; one test
80 per cent good and 20 per cent bad;
one test 85 per cent good and 15 per
cent bad;' one test 95 per cent good,s5
per cent bad; one test none good, all
bad; one test '10 per cent good, 99 per
cent bad. This makes aa average of
about 90 per cent good to 10 per cent
bad. Certainly this is a remarkable
showing.
A man well versed in horticultural
lore tells the Farmers' Review that
most of the fruits and vegetables grown
in hot houses out of their season are
of exceedingly poor flavor, though they
bring fancy prices on the markets. He
says: Cucumbers thus grown have the
color ot cucumbers and the shape o
cucumbers, but that Is all. The same
Is true of tomatoes, which have the
ruddy cheeks-of those grown in the
open fields but lacking almost eatirely
their flavor. Nevertheless, the. real
test is, from the fruit-grower's stand
point what they will bring In the
market, and judged by that test, the
growing of fruit out of season is to
be encouraged.
