Experiment to Determine Their Use fulness to the Prairie Farmer. The sudden ruin that hot winds Hotlines bring to growing crops in hirts 'of the west is well known. Wowing strongly across the unob structed plains, these winds may in a few days blast all hope of even a par tial harvest. This is particularly so in the lower portion of the central plains region and in years of unusually low rainfall. Here the winds most to be feared blow from the southwest or south. In the northern prairie region the farmer la exposed to the hot chtnook wind, which sweeps down from the Canadian mountains. This either dries out growing crops or If It prevails before the danger of killing frosts is past causes loss through urg ing vegetation forward prematurely, Cold winter winds also do great in- " Jury to crops, make the climate mow severe for stock and men and Interfere with an even covering of snow upon the ground. This Is true from Cana- da almost to the gulf. Tn BAniiiti-n rniifnrnin rirv wimifi from the north and northeast sweep 4wn from the Mohave desert with 8tractlve results. Coming In June, these winds may reduce tne wncat yield of unprotected fields to almost nothing. Windbreaks of eucalyptus and Monterey cypress, now In such com mon use to protect orange groves and orchards, long ago convinced possess ors of highly valuable Irrigated land of the valufi of tree planting for pro tection purposes. But there are two sides to the wind break Question. Some prairie farmers declare positively that belts of osage orange, for Instance, are a "nuisance." Others cite figures to show positive benefit : A farmer who lives near Downs,-Kan., gives his yield of corn from field protected on the soutn ny a row of tall cotton woods as six bush els per acre more than In places where there to no protection. About fifteen acre are benefited In this way. It is hlehlv necessary that the wlndhreait should occupy only sufficient land to offset this benefit An Illinois farmer sums up hie or servatlon. upon experience Is t thls matter thus: uy riMi-tanm ia that now. in coia ana Stormy winters, wheat protected by, timhar h-lta vleld fun crops, while fields not protected yield only one-third of S crop.

A truck gardener tells that this is the way he raised early tomatoes: He took a dry goods box 2 by 3 feet and eight inches deep. In each corner of the box he set a piece of two Inch pipe, so that he could water the plants from the bottom, pouring In the water and letting it permeate through the soil, which was composed of a sandy loam put Into the box after the bottom bad been covered to the depth of three inches with well rotted and sifted sta ble manure. The seeds were planted and lightly covered and the noil kept moist, but not wet In one week after planting the green tops appeared, and in three weeks they were trans planted Into a similar box. being set an Inch deeper thnn they grew In the first box. They grew in the box in sheltered places for three weeks, when lliey were ready for the garden. Savoy Cabbage. Envoy leaved cabbages are largely used in Europe. They are marked by a peculiar fine crumbling of all the leaves, particularly those of the head. They are generally of better tible quality than common cabbage, more mdcr, finer In texture and of more delicate flavor. Tho plants are better able to resist cold, but do not give so large a yield of heads, and the beadu are less solid and cannot be bandied so well as the more common sorts. LIVE STOCK MARKETS. Low Prioed Products Resulting From Saorifioes te 8av. Corn. Live stock markets continue disap pointing to the producer who has to market high priced feed In the form of relatively low priced products. Tart of this Is due to liberal supplies of hogs and part to restricted consump tion. Cattle supplies are not suffi ciently In excess of previous years to account for the present price range on fat stock, while sheep receipts last month were the llghest since 1807, hut hogs hsve been marketed qnlte freely, and this without doubt has had Its effect on prices all around. That con sumers are counting the cost of meats more carefully than they did last year H evident from the amount or dots consumed and from other meat market conditions. Many consumers are us ing more perk snd leas beef snd mut ton because It at cheeper. Msny are buying the cheeper cuts of beef who weald hsve none but the best last year. This Is shown very clearly by the fact that these ets nave advanced, while the best are selling for lees tbsa they did a year ago. as to the future of the markets, the same uncertainty prevails as st the opening of the year. Then we were told that fat cattle would be scarce by Feb. but the famine has not been Banlfest Then greet confidence was expressed tn the late winter nog mar ket, but plenty of hogs are still com ing forward. Sheep and lambs have merle docM-til Improvement and etrp piles for the rest of the wtotar are aot expected to be liberal. But tt aeema certain that a pert of the pres ent sufficiency of meats Is doe to the eecrnVes being made to save high priced com. If oo, there ahortage some time.

Swine producing sections of North America are keenly interested In re suits of the hog cholera conference held at Ames, la. It was called by Secretary Wilson, Dr. Melvln and Dr. Dorset of the United States depart ment of agriculture and was attended by the veterinarian officials of the bu rcau of animal Industry of the central western states. These men were called together by Secretary Wilson to re ceive instructions In the government's new and successful treatment of hog cholera. The method of combating the dis ease is simply Immunization. For number of years the department at tempted to produce a successful vac cine by artificial cultures, but on ac count of the ultra microscopic naturo of the organism causing the trouble this was found to be not feasible. Slnco then the workers, knowing that hogs which have recovered from the disease are immune, have been im munizing the animals by means of the infected blood. It was soon found, however, that the blood serum from these recovered swine did not contain the Immunizing bodies in sufficient numbers to confer immunity to other animals , when In jected into their system. To render these antitoxin bodies of practical val ue they can be increased by feeding the heart, liver, lungs and Intestines of cholera victims to these immune ani mals. These animals are mude still INOCULATIHO A VIO AOAINST BOO OHOLEBA. further Immune by Injections of Infect ed blood. This hyper-immune blood from these animals Is found to be pro tective against the disease. Dr. Mc Neil at the Iowa experiment station has demonstrated by a number of trials the practicability of the treatment After somo experiments at the Mis souri experiment station J. W. Cou naway, D. V. 8., said: "Out of fifty six head that appeared healthy at the time of Inoculation only three died. Ail were probably as greatly exposed as would ordinarily occur on the aver age stock farm, and somo of these In oculated animals were very severely exposed and still proved resistant The results of these tests are so sat isfactory as to leave in every mind no doubt as to the great practical val ue of this method of preventing bog cholera." THE DAIRYMAN. Dairy farmers should retain the calves from the beat milking cows. It Is almost Impossible to buy dairy cows as good as the calves from the best cows will make If the former are prop erly rei.red and handled. Feed tho heifer calf on muscle and bone making feed to obtain a large frame. Feed plenty of roughage to develop a large stomach capacity. Do not reed ratten ing foods and allow the heifer to be come fat When fresh, feed well, sta ble well and make the first milking period as long ss possible. Experiments With Rye Meal. The reunsyrvania experiment station has discovered that rye meal as a pert of a properly balanced ration for milk cows 1 ss efficient In milk and butter production as an equal weight of corn meal. No - Injurious effect upon tlx1 quality of the butter was noticed. Treatment Fee Soeurs. Some time sso tho Houtb Carolina experiment ttntloo ri-ommenk-d the use of fornialdrbyde as a treatment for scours In youug calves. It should be fed as follows: Add one-half ounce of commercial formalin to 15J1 ounces of distilled or rain water and rive one aeaanoor.fal of this eolation with each pound or pint of sklniuiUk fd.

POINTS FOR THE SHEPHERD. Joseph E. Wing, In giving a plan for a feed rack for sheep In the Breed er's Gazette, Chicago, says: We build a sort of very simple feed rack In which we feed either silage, grain or hay In fact usually all three together at one time. The main thing, we find. In a feed rack la to have It so made that tho sheep or lamb can readily thrust Its head clear in and hold It there while It eats. The spaces should not be so open that small sheep or large lambs can get In with their feet. The type of rack here Illustrated Is adapted to the use of mature sheep and lambs past five months old. It Is substantially a flat bottomed feed trough twenty-four ran back ron SBBsr. Inches wide, with a tight bottom. hayrack above and attached to It It la easily and cheaply built, and we find It effective. If the ewes have little lambs at their sides a different rack la advisable.. One with slats closer to gether is best Management of Sheep. It Is Important that sheep shall be so managed that the moat may be made out of the fleece. The Influences that affect the fleece mainly are those of climate, of food and care, of breeding and of age. The first and last Influ ence wool lees than the second and third. Food affects the character of wool by breeding it and thereby In creasing Its growth In length and also In strength Breeding, however, accompanied by selection, is the great factor in deter mining what the degree of fineness or of coarseness will be. Change In this re spect Is brought about much more rap idly by breeding than In any otber way. Trotectlng the wool from con tamination by foreign substances, such as straw and chaff, is greatly Impor tant. Where the flock ia large the dif ference of a portion of a cent a pound may make a large difference In the ag gregate return received for It A little care In protecting wool may result in a rich return In proportion to the care expended. The Care of Lambs. Henry L. Wardell. a prosperwM sheep man, says of the care of lambs: The lambs wbon weaned should be put on fresh ground that la, pastures or aftermath which boa not been uscu much for sheep that year. In fact, a great secret of success with sheep Is frequent change of pasture, ana i should rather change to a poorer pas ture for awhile than mako no change. The lambs then are let run in the day time on the best pasture we have and at night are hurdled on as much (no more) of rape aa they will clean up close to the ground. I need not say this ground on wblcb lambs have been hurdled will raise magnificent crops without additional fertilizer. During July and August I use some good worm powders to mix with the salt given the flock, and If any or my Iambs show indications of worm In the bead or giddiness I doss them with tonic. The same may be done If on too rank feed they are Inclined to scour. I have found also that for worms In the bead to shut them In s tight box sull or other tight Inclosure snd spray them generously with ere I oil 1 the beet remedy I here thus far used.

Rapid Gaina at Low Coat From Both Forage and Grain. When bogs are kept It is a good plan to produce as much of tho feed for them right there on the farm as possi ble. All want to mako pork as cheap ly as they can, and the feed raised on the farm is, aa a rule, cheaper than commercial feeds. But there are ex ceptions to the rule, and the man who holds himself to a rule regardless of conditions should change his methods. Experiments hare proved, what we nave found by experience to be true, that the table wasto and sklmmllk and cornmeal constitute a feed for bogs running to pasture that make tho most rapid gains for the cost of feed of any thing yet found, writes N. A. Clupp in Orange Judd Fanner. It Is not neces sary to atop to theorize In regard to the matter. It Is sufficient to know that aucb things are a fact. But the question comes up as to the kind of pasture that furnishes the best feed. It has .been proved again and again that alfalfa mokes the best foed. with June clover a close second. In the absence of clovor. blue grass Is tho next best pasture. When none of the clovers or grasses are nvalluble It Is far better to sow rape thun to com pel pigs to go without any green for age. The man who gets lopsided and keeps his hogs cither on green forage alone or on grain alone makes a mistake. Experience has shown ua that bogs can live on forage and make somo gain, but do not make the galna rapid enough to show the venture a satisfactory one. Hogs may make rapid galna on a grain diet alone, but It Is too expensive. The man who uses both forage and grain makes a rapid gain at a low cost pro vided the feeds are well balanced. Hogs fed on both forage and grain bow a better quality of meat than If either is fed alone. The forage helps to make bone and muscle, and the grain helps to add the fat The sklmmllk, buttermilk, dishwater and. whey pro mote growth, and all help to produce cheap pork If fed In connection wim the other feeds. They also help to lm prove the quality of meat. INJURE THE MILK. Use ef Rusty er Poorly Tinned Cans Produce Oft Flavors. "Busty Caus and Tbolr Effect Upon link Vnr fhr-unetiiakliiir" Is the title of a recent bulletin of the Wisconsin experiment station prepared by George A. Olson, assistant chemist. fc.xpcri ments made by Mr. Olson show that milk hauled lu poorly tinned or rusty cans Is materially Injured for cheewe maklng. "Tho theero factory operator should not besllate to refuse milk which la hauled In poorly tinned or ni.tv conn." writes Mr. Olson, "for. In addition to tho retarding Influence of the Iron o:i tho rennet action and tl neutralization of the add by th-s Iroj. there are also produced taints or o.T flavors." The milk cana u'.cd to haul milk 1-j the cheese factory are often of a cheap grade and are dented the first or ic ond tlmo that they are nscd, with a result that tho tin cracks and the Ir -n is sxposed and rusts.

It was evldeut that the ati.l lu the milk acted uon the Iron and dis solved some of It The maximum quan tity of Irou dissolved In the milk ranged from one to one snd a half pounds for every thousand itounds of milk. This Iron In solution st least partly causes the retarding Influence of the rennet art loo. since It Increases the solids In the milk. Oats For Calves. The great business of the growing calf Is to make muscle. This muscle la what gives plumpness to a thrifty calf. For this purpose a food Is needed which Is especially rich In muscle forming msterisL Grass Is not For this nothing csn be found that Is bet ter than oats. Not only are they rk-b tn the material detsred. but that rich ness Is not so concentrated aa to make them a danseroue food. They are neither besting nor fattening In their natare. but tend Instead to build up muscle sod give the animal strengtb and vtoor. Ia the spring, before the pasture, are reedy to torn on to. Is the time that the reives will seed this addition to their feed. If at any time they are allowed to grow thin la flesh tt will take a teug time of good feeding and careful stteo.

W t eon river was launched with the name lleudrlck Hudson, somebody remonstrated, holding that the name of the vessel should be Henry Hudson, because that waa Hud. son's real name. Nevertheless It seems fitting that the boat be named Hen orlck Distend of Ileury, for It waa while lu the service of the Dutch East India company that the English navi gator discovered the great river which bears bis name. Moreover, bis own country was so Jealous of bis prowess as a discoverer for another nation thai oa his return to the old world Hudson was practically Impressed into the British service and was not permitted to enjoy bis full reward for the suc cesses achieved by htm when he voy aged under the Dutch namo of Hen drick. Hudson perished miserably In the service of British Interests. This waa when tic made bis disastrous voyage In search of that long bidden northwest passage which lured so many mariners to defeat or doom and which waa final ly discovered by Captain Hon Id Amund sen nearly three centuries after Had son's death. Hudson sailed Into the vast northern bay which, along with the gloriously picturesque river, keeps bis name on tho map of the world. There was mutiny aboard, and the mariners set the great navigator adrift In a email boat' In the Icy waters with bis son and a few other adherents. The fate of Hudson and bis party la still a mystery of the frozen north. For the people of the United States Hudson's chief achievement was the discovery of the wonderful river at the mouth of which has grown up the second city of the world In population and the first In commercial Impor tance. Hendrick Hudson sailed northward around Sandy Hook and entered the river In September, 1609, In the Dutch Ship Half Moon. The explorer spent a month atudylng the stream, going up as far as the site of the city of Albany, Stephen A. Douglas. By nOWXTVS LOVE. He uiat a iant in intellect.
