Dairymen are being blamed for try- ing to have laws passed that will drive the “poor man’s butter’’ out of existence. This is not true. If oleo merchants had not tried to sell oleo as genuine butter there would never have been a law passed on the sub- ject. The grain drill is coming into gen- eral use in the corn belt, but it isa mistake to try to have them do the |work intgg§ed for the disk or the low seed bed must be pre- pared before using the drill in order to bring results. Those who have planted their corn are on the anxious seat now and they have a reason to be. Itis true that early corn is generally ahead all through the season, but sometimes the early bird does not get the worm. Gophers are more numerous this spring than for several years past. They are very fond of corn, but do not seem to care two pins whether we have a good stafd or not. A good | way to get rid of them is to kill them. A gopher in time saves nine. It is becoming more difficult to get pure grass seed every year. About the only safe way is to get the seed early and send a sample to the experi- ment station for examination. On nearly every farm itis necessary to sow some grass seed every year, but it is best to avoid quack-grass seed if possible. Many of the fields that were seeded early are green and were looking fine before the cold weather came. Others were seeded later. and were barely sprouted and some_were just | finished. A few fields are still to be worked. A close observer will have a chance to see the effect of freezing ‘ | arain cloud.

Weare always glad to show it to you. And remember you pay no freight after you buy . the material, and if it is not perfectly satisfactory , ‘ you may return it and we will refund you the There is more silo talk among the farmers this spring than ever before. Much of this is perhaps caused by the statements made by the sales- men employed by the different silo manufacturers, but more is due to | the fact that the past winter was an } unusually bad one for those who fed corn fodder from the shock or from the stack. Cattle that are fed on ensilage do not stand exposure to cold weather as well as those that are fed on dry grain and dry fodder, but this should not keep anyone who is feeding stock for profit from using a silo. One of the best things for the young people on the farm isto equip the farm home as fast as circumstances will permit, with the up-to-date con- veniences found in any home, and by the way, this is one of the best ways to keep the old people on the farm also. Look straight ahead when you are walking. We all go back to Mother Earth quickly enough without pulling our shoulders to the grotnd by con- stant looking at the soil. Look straight ahead and frequently look up. Find a successful dairyman and ten chances to one you will find a silo on his farm and he will tell you that he feeds his cows silage just as, many months in the year as he possibly can. T rather like to feed big, growthy steers. The little fine-boned fellows seem to thrive and they really take on a finish quickly, but when ‘you put them onto the scales they’re not there with the goods. Give me a big steer every time even if he isn’t as used in Europe. What pleased the distinguished surgeons present was the American’s ability to overcome difficulties. When Dr. Massey ar- rived at the hospital he found the electrical current was 240 volts, while he could use only 110. He instantly overcame the difficulty himself by cutting down the lamps and arrang- ing them ina series so as to reduce the voltage. x The hospital electricians stood about admiringly while Dr. Massey deftly and rapidly did this work.—London, England, Sun.

Tomato plants that have been | grown under the protection of a hot- bed and cold frame are likely to suf- fer severely when transplanted to the | field, unless they have been gradual- ly inured to outside conditions. To prepare the plants for with- standing the transfer to the field with- out suffering a sudden check in jgrowth they must be gradually ac- |customed to winds and night tem- peratures while they areYstill in the cold frame. Beginning about two | weeks before the time for setting the plants in the fisld the frame is left | uncovered later each evening and is jadjusted so as-to let in a little air even at night. Finally on pleasant nights the cover is left off entirely. The plants should be thus exposed | for several nights before they are set jin the field. This treatment causes | | them to make a slow, woody growth, | | 80 that they do not wilt badly when | jtransplanted. It also prepares them |to stand the ordinary night tempera- ture in the field at the normal season | | for transplanting. —Market Growers’ | Journal. The Ladylike Revolver.

From the St. Paul Dispatch. Scores of lives can be saved by re- lentless war upon the house fly. F. L. Washburn, state entomologist, points the way. To be effective that campaign must be started now. Be- fore returning summer has revived the flies from their winter nap they can be excluded to a great extent by the careful screening of windows and doors. Now is the time to do it. The multiplication of the pests.can be pre- vented by a thorough cleaning up. Every pile of stable refuse that is re- moved from the city before the weath- er grows hot means thousands fewer of flies to contend with. Every pile of garbage removed from a street or an alley means the destruction of an incubator which as sure as the sum- mer comes would hatch if left in place hundreds of thousands of.the pests. Sanitary science attributes 30 per cent of typhoid cases to the house fly. Itis responsible for the spread in a greater or lesser degree of every infectious or contagious disease.
