V ikomcif ss Green Manure Is Aid to Bacteria Cover Crop Plowed Under Improves Soil and Increases Water Capacity. by the United State of Agriculture.) (Prepared - - one-ha- lf composing material Bacterial Decomposition. Bacterial decomposition of green manure gives rise to carbon dioxide and ammonia. The carbon dioxide es--' capes from the soil into the air ; the ammonia is absorbed by the soil and, through the action of bacteria, is first changed to nitrite and then to nitrate. The greater the percentage of nitrogen in the green manure, other conditions being equal, the more nitrate will be formed from its decomposition. When crops low in nitrogen, such as mature rye, are turned under very little benefit will result for the following crop, since the amount of nitrogen bound up by the bacteria in decomposition may be greater than that obtained from the rye. Eventually this nitrogen is changed to nitrate, perhaps too late for the crop. Succeeding Crops Benefited, It has been known for many years that growing a cover crop and plowing it under as a green manure irn- proves the physical character of the soil, increases its capacity to hold water, and helps to prevent erosion. The mere growing of legumes, says Mr. Smith, has a stimulating effect upon the bacteria of the soil, and succeeding crops may be benefited even though the tops of the legumes are removed.

Look Sot the Bayer cross : Hatch Geese Eggs When Grass Is Well Started The eggs of geese may be hatched under hens, setting them in the spring when grass is well started. The goose and gander are best mated during the previous fall, as mating' may not occur between the gander and more than one female. This accounts for some infertile eggs. Eggs hatch in about thirty days. Remove the first hatched goslings from the nest if necessary to give unhatched eggs more time. Keep them in a warm basket until all are hatched that can be expected from the setting. Feed the goslings after 24 or 30 hours 'from hatching, giving stale bread squeezed from milk, or equal parts of rolled oats and bread crumbs moistened with water and some sand for grit Feed moderately several times daily, during the first week.

This statement applies as well to all other fruits, for the day of keen competition has arrived, and only those who grow a superior product will remain at the top. It is not a question of more vnri- -fhn h"t ioHaq tb?t TT,,l highest purpose. No one can question that the production of pears, equal to the bartlett- in size and Quality and extending from the earliest to the latest season, would be of great benefit to the'fruit indus-trOnly the production of varieties of red raspberries can put that industry on its feet, according to Professor Wellington. Time will tell if the newburgh variety will meet these requirements in part During the past forty years the Geneva experiment station has collected fruits from various parts of the world that might have any possible value. No fruit has been obtained that fulfills ail the requirements of a good variety. Many possess valuable characters such as good size, high flavor and color, quality, freedom from insect pests and disease, proper time of maturity, and hardiness of plant and floral organs. Many new combinations have been obtained which promise to be of commercial value. As an example. Professor Wellington cited the golden muscat grape which was obtained from a cross between the diamond and the muscat hamburg. This variety inherited the high productiveness, large clusters, and the delicate muscat aroma of its European parent, and the hardiness of its American parent If this grape were black Instead of a golden yellow ; if it ripened a little earlier; and if it had a tougher skin for shipping, it would be invaluable. Professor Wellington said. Several grapes like the golden muscat show promise and there are still many promising seedlings that are too new and whose merit Is yet unknown. y blight-resista- nt - y. mosiac-resista- nt long-keepi- e Sour milk costs producers thousands of dollars a year, and. usually Is caused by using unclean utensils or failing to cool the milk properly, says Prof. L. H. Burgwald of the department of dairy technology of the Ohio State university. A little care qn the part of the farmer would avoid this loss," says Professor Burgwald. Milk is an ideal medium for the growth of bacteria. AH that the bacteria require when introduced into the milk, is the proper temperature, and they wiU multiply very rapidly. In growing they break down the milk sugar In the milk and convert it Into lactic acid which in turn sours the milk. But the bacteria will grow very slowly, if at all, at a temperature below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Milk coming from the normally healthy cow is practically free from bacteria, so when large numbers of bacteria are found it means either that they have been introduced after milking, through the use of unclean utensils, or that the milk has not been promptly and properly cooled, and the bacteria have multiplied very rapidly. The public Judges the quality of the milk by the length of time which it will keep sweet The milk plant has to use some test which will determine in advance how long the milk will keep sweet This test takes the form of a bacteria count under a compound microscope, an alcohol test, or a methylene blue test The blue color of the milk caused by the addition of methylene blue dye, disappears more or less quickly, according to the numc ber of bacteria present The test, however, an actual count of the bacteria present is the one most commonly used.

To mix the spray for - cherry leaf spot, use one galn of commercial liquid to 40 gallons of water. By adding two pounds of arsenate of lead, the curculio which causes wormy cherries will also be controlled. Dissolve the arsenate of lime-sulph- - lime-sulph- lead in a small amount of water before jidding it to the spray. 1. The first spray is applied right ' after the petals fall. 2. Apply the second spray two weeks later. 3. The last spray should be applied right after the fruit is picked. Cherry leaf spot has worked westward in the last three years. Cherries are the principal fruit crop In western Kansas. It will pay the owner of even a few trees to buy a lard sprayer and apply the three sprays.

PILES Feeding Galves Three Times a Day Is Favored Pile sufferers from Protruding, Bleeding, Itching or Blind Piles, can now get relief from very first treatment by using Best results can be obtained by feeding calves three times a day,' with the periods between feedings as nearly equal as possible. When calves are fed but twice a day the feedings should be 12 hours, apart A calf weighing 50 pounds at birth should be given eight pounds of whole milk a day, while a calf should The have about twelve pounds. amount, of milk should be gradually Increased until at the end of the second week the calf should get from 14 to 16 pounds per day. At the beginning of the third week either skim or separated milk may be given for whole milk, at the rate of one pound per day, and the daily ration increased from two to four pounds, depending on the vigor of the calf. If the calf does not drink eagerly when milk is offered, the quantity should be cut down. At the end of the third week the ration should approximate skim milk. At the end of the fourth week only separated milk Is fed, unless the calf Is very delicate. The quantity fed can be increased gradually to 18 or 20 pounds per day. Six months is a good average age at which to wean calves from the milk. When good pasturage is available, the calf can be weaned earlier. If skim or separated milk is available, however, calves, especially if they are available, may be fed on it with profit until they are eight or ten months old. Q.R.PiIoOintment Q. R.

In fact, according to experiments and studies made at the state experiment station of New York, at Geneva, all coarse particles of sulphur are practically worthless, for such coarse partiefes do not remain on the foliage, while fine dust will adhere to the leaves. It is only the portion of the dust that adheres that does any good. The rest of it Is just thrown away; it Is worse than useless, for it has cost money to buy, and it costs more money to apply It to the plants. j According to a recent report of the experiment station, sulphur should be in such a state of fineness that approximately 100 per cent will pass through a sieve having 825 meshes to the . , square inch.

Smith, bacteriologist of the United States Department of Agriculture. Under favorable conditions plowing under a large amount of green material may Increase the number of bacteria as much as ten times within two days, says Mr. ' Smith.. In four days there may be 15 to 25 times the original number of bacteria In the decomposing material and adhering soil.
