With the increase of population the interests of the country lie in the possession of small farms. Reduce the size of the farms and young men will find it possible to purchase them. At present prices it is practically impossible for a young man to buy a farm of average size. The old processes of thin farming still remain on the big farms and are likely to remain as the price of land goes up, oh account of the price of e blue-blac- k g labor. In the eastern part of the country the intensive farming idea is in the As a result the farms ascendency. are largely owned without mortgages. The intensive idea is making itself felt to some extent in the Weht, but it is yet slight, except near the great cities, where farming takes on the character more of gardening. Could we but induce the men that own more land than they can cultivate to sell what they have little use for the benefit would be threefold: The man that sold tne land would be benefitted; the landless man that purchased it would be benefitted; and the general public would be benefitted. We are coming to the time when our farmers will realize the fact that it is possible to farm downwards as well as laterally. They will find that It Is not necessary to pay taxes on a thousand acres of land farmed three inches deep when they can get the same results from five hundred acres fanned six inches deep. They will also find that smaller farms mean a better social condition of the people. ' Protection Against Weeds. Iowa had a unique case was carried to the Supreme Court and which involved the interests of farmers. It grew out of an injunction sought by one farmer to restrain a neighboring farmer from allowing his farm to run to cockle burrs, which would seed themselves on the adjoining land, as he had been doing for four years previous. The Supreme Court held that a suit for damages offered the only remedy open to the plaintiff. The suit would appear to. make plain the urgent need of a noxious weed law in Iowa, by which good farmers could punish the sins of slovenly farmers from which they suffered. The common good has furnished reason enough for strong restraining legislation in many of the states. For instance, in California, orchardists are required by law to spray with insecticides or use other methods of keeping down fruit enemies, because otherwise there is no protection, the spraying of the few being ineffective. Iowa farmers need to wake up to their interests and have a weed law passed that will safeguard the fields of careful husbandmen. short and stout ' J Preparing the Orchard for Winter. When you have cleaned up the apples from all of your trees, then commence to prepare your orchard for winter quarters, says T. H. Todd. Take a hoe, and scrape all the dead grass away from the trunk of the tree, for two or three feet around. Whenever we have dead or broken limbs we saw them off; this is all the pruning we do, after we have headed and started our young trees. You will find by doing this you will have no water sprouts. As we go over our orchard, when we come to a dead tree or one that is dying, we tag it so tbe man that follows may know what to take out Every tree then that is dead or dying is tagged when we go over the first time. We then follow with dynamite, by boring a hole under the roots with an augur, slip in a Btick or half stick as you may determine by the looks of the tree, and blow them out By doing this the tree is blown out, all the dead roots and ground are thoroughly blown up where the tree stands; this cleanses the place and kills the insects by .the next spring. You will find the ground where the tree has been blown out in fine shape to reset another tree. Last but not least in the way of preparing our orchard for winter quarters, we go over the orchard with a preparation of lime, sulphur and carbolic acid. Commencing in the forks of the tree, we take a knife and clean out the forks of the trees thoroughly. You will find a great many leaves have lodged there and a great many Insects have gone there for their winter quarters. W then have all the grass taken from the trees, the forks cleaned out nicely and the broken and dead limbs sawed off. The tree is now ready to apply the wash. Take a brush and apply It well, putting all you can down in the forks of the tree with your brush, and then on down to the ground. All the settlings in our bucket that we carry our wash in we empty out around the roots of the trees. Hardy Plants. In all parts of the country an effort Is being made to produce hardy plants. In some cases this hardiness consists In being able to withstand cold. In other parts of the country It means the ability to withstand drouth, and in yet other places the ability to grow In spite of the fierce rays of the summer sun. So the men that have undertaken the task of developing hardy plants have some extremely hard problems to solve. Tbe. work Is being prosecuted along several lines. One is to select plants from hardy plants and to continue to select those that show Increased hardiness. Some progress is being made in this line, but not so much as the experimenters desire. Another method is to cross a very good variety with an inferior one that has hardiness in an extraordinary degree, Thus the wild crab apple, which grows even north of the Canadian line in Manitoba, is being crossed with the finer varieties of apples a thousand miles to the south. From this cross seeds are planted and then selection begins of the trees that bear the best In fruit and yet show hardiness. either case it will be observed that a hardy variety must be selected as a starting point Already much has been accomplished and bardy varieties of plants are being grown much further north than it was thought to be possible twenty years ago. It is difficult, however, to say just what constitutes hardiness in plants, and it frequently happens that a plant that seemed to be hardy at first proves not to be hardy when given a longer trial. In a good many cases the apparent-- I ly Increased hardiness is due to late- ness of blooming In the spring, the blossoms opening after the frosts have passed. variety that is late in blooming can be grown much furone that opens early. ther north than Observations along this line give great success. promise of long-blade- Hairy Vetch. One of the best cover crops known is hairy vetch. It has, however, been little used on account of the high price of the seed, much of which had to be Imported from abroad. There seems no satisfactory reason, however, why this seed should not be raised on this side of the water in sufficient quantities to supply all demands. The Ontario station Imported seed from Germany, and, sown in the fall, it produced the next year 8.6 bushels of seed. Seed produced from this crop was sown side by side with new seed from Germany and gave a yield of 3.4 bushels above that of the German seed. As the price of seed is five dollars per bushel, this was a fairly good return for the acre planted to vetch. Of course the price can be reduced by a number of farmers growing the seed, but even then the returns will be better than from some of the cereals. For sweet potatoes the ground should be plowed shallow. There should be a bard bottom under the ridges in which the sweet potato tubers grow, that the tubers may grow ed IS 4 53 19 25 61 84 8 76 .v-- s. Cheap Seed. From now on till planting time In the spring farmers will be purchasing seeds for their various crops next year. It is a lamentable fact that the ordinary farmer does not purchase the best seed he can obtain, but chooses a low grade seed at a low price. It would be false economy to use poor seed even if it were a gift Worse still is it to take chances on old seed, that which was left over from last year. Some of this loses Its germinating power very quickly. It is claimed that the amount of Imperfectly cleaned seed on the market Is very great, and this proportion la vey much greater than usual after bad years. Not only is tbe question of geminabillty at stake, but, what Is worse, the presence of weed seeds mat, once sown, will cost the farmer dearly in tbe efforts he must put forth to get rid of them. It will pay the farmer to scrutinize his seed very closely. 1610 18 29 214 28 13 18 to - 2.69 2.14 1.08 2 18.16 .. 8 Two Ideas of Farming. In the United States there are One is to opposite ideas of farming farm on the extensive scale. The other is to farm on the intensive scale. The western idea of farming is to own great tracts of land, and this idea becomes more extensive as one goes Canada a west. Even in Western farmer thinks himselt poor unless he owns several sections of laud. The Idea is one that had its birth in the It jas days when land was cheap. lived on in spite changed conditions. In the day of cheap laud the great farm was a necessity, as intensive operations were not possible. Labor was scarce and live stock abundant, and the auimals could be made to do most of the gathering of the crops, eating them as they of-h- 12.16 9 12 37.38 40 89 14 4 7 - ehn-Wls- 4.76 41 80 12.16 6 17 24.61 Hyrum TTsms, i acres, nw E.

Peopi, that bave been south know how difficult it is to get cream at even the best hotels. This shows a lack both in tbe general public and in the producers. The one does not strongly demand the products of the cow and the other does not try to produce th article and place It where the public can be educated In its use. Reading dairy statistics of the south Is not very Interesting, as they are too meager. A small herd here and there, often of indifferent breeding, comprises the list of producing f&ctora. Most of the Southern states have no dairymens associations. This showa the apathy exlbting among the people on the subject of dairying. In the South a great many cows are kept in cities, and from these come most of the supply of milk. In the north this is not generally practiced. Tbe cows in the north are kept in the country Instead of in the city, and the milk is shipped in over roads that make a point to encourage the milk trade. In the south tbe milk trade Is so little of a factor that the milk train is unknown. The south is, however, moving in the matter of a better milk supply, and here and there a city is appointing a milk inspector to see that it gets only pure milk. Where this is done the milk trade is benefited, as one of the obstacles in the way of a better business in milk production is the suspicion of the public that much of the milk sold Is dirty, adulterated or watered. There is no doubt that the time is coming when milk producing will be a great business in the South. The mild winters and the abundance of forage make It an ideal part of the country In which I Prepare for Turkey Raising.

Dairy Idols. Cows become favorites with their owners not altogether by reason ot the milk they produce. We have known cows that their owners thought a great deal of because of the kindly disposition of the animals. One cow that the writer remembers gave but a few quarts of milk a day, but she was a pet of the family. She would prefer tbe company of members of tbe family .rather than of other cows. If the cows were being taken to pasture she would insist on walking by the side of the one in charge of the herd. It Is hard to order a cow of this and yellow beak, legs and toes, places kind sent to the butcher, and many the picture before us In Us entirety. people will not do it.

Peering under the cow he asked: Where are the faucets you turn to let the milk run out? It is doubtful if potatoes run out, in the true meaning of the word. In certain localities they may deteriorate in quality and productiveness owing to the carelessness in the selecting of seed and even in the cultivation ot the ground. It frequently occurs that the humus In the soil becomes exhausted and the variety for that reason does not do as well as formerly.
