Nltragln might be called, then, the farmer' yeast cake. The bacteria found In the nodule on the roots of different plants of the clo ver family are supposed to be for the most part of distinct specie for each. and .thus there are many different kinds of nltragln, such as clover nltra gln, soy bean nltragln, vetch nltragln, cowpea nltragln, etc. Nltragln i pro duced, solar a I am aware, only In Germany. . Several years ago the Bowker Fer tilizer company procured a stock and sold or gave away a number of pack age of It With what success It was used I do not know. In our experi ment we bave found it of use only in the case of plant new to the locality. It appear' to be true that the appro priate bacteria are almost everywhere abundant In different localities for all plant which have long been grown In said localities. William P. Brook In American Agriculturist . Worklaar Cows. In some parts of Europe they make a practice of working cows in the yoke as we do or used to do oxen, excepting that possibly, as they want milk, they are careful to feed well and not overwork. This led to a series of experiments at Stockholm, Sweden, In testing the milk of cows so treated, and they found that the milk was reduced in quantity by the exercise, but its quality was so much richer in butter fat that the working cows actually produced more butter than cows equally good that had no other exercise than they found in gathering their food in the pasture. This open up a new possibility. II horses and mules are to be so scarce and high priced that farmers are un able to purchase them to replace the stock they now have when It Is worn out, will those who keep cows for put ter making or who sell their milk upon the test of butter fat begin to work their cows in the yoke to save expense of keeping oxen? While one test may not be conclusive, the question may be worthy of Investigation here. Ameri can Cultivator. Rap aa a Second Crop. We have frequently tried sowing rape after removing fall wheat early oats and barley and have met with considerable success. The stubble ground should be plowed Just as soon as the crop Is removed to a depth of four or five Inches and afterward well worked down with harrow or cultiva tor. It frequently occurs that there is not sufficient moisture present in the soil to germinate the seed, but by hav ing everything In readiness advantage may be taken of small showers. Rape seed may be sown broadcast nt the rate of four or five pounds per acre or in rows twenty-four Inches apart using two or three pounds per acre. Ordina rily a rape crop sown In this manner will furnish a large amount of pasture, which may be used six or seven weeks after seeding, but it must be remem bered that we have seasons when there is not sufficient moisture to germinate the seed. James Atkinson in Breeder's Gazette. . Farmer! and State Colleges. The farmers of Pennsylvania de mand that Its state college be more of an agricultural institution. Commit tees representing sixteen agricultural societies and associations met at Har rlsburg and took vigorous action to secure an appropriation from the leg islature that at least a dairy school, up to date in every particular, be es tablished. , The buildings and equip ment for agricultural development at Pennsylvania's state college are decid ediy Inadequate. The way to make them of superior advantage Is for farmers to demand that this be done. A start has been made, so all should pitch in and help, Getting; Rid of Stomps. There are a great many popular be liefs that stumps treated with chem icals can be made to rot rapidly. As a matter of fact, ... however, what we know of such theories leads us to be lieve that there is nothing In them. Chemicals powerful enough to cause any considerable destruction of the wood are entirely too expensive for or dinary use. The most expeditious method we know of for getting rid of Stumps is either by digging them up Or pulling them out with some form of stump pulling machine or ' blowing them out with powder. The latter is a method quite generally employed. Farm and Home. : . Klaf Cotton. .

C GAMBLING BY CONGRESSMEN Very Little How Ooaiss Wtd) Oldea Til As a matter of fact, there la UttW or no gambling now in the capAnt com pared with the condttton of yean ago. There used to be a time when certain committee rooms were the rendezvous for poker players, and the game were generally without limit Many senator and representative do not object to a little game now, but they play In the evening and not at tt capital. There were poker storie ga lore around the capltol tn . the olden days. One incident became a classic, There was a rjartv in the room of a southern congressman, and the gam! ran high. A western member opened j a jack pot, and the southerner, who! was upon bis lert, came in, togetner with two other congressmen, Tbe west erner stood pat, whereupon the south erner discarded two cards. Tbe bet ting began and soon became so swift that only the southerner and the west erner remained. Finally the latter called bis colleague, and the hand were shown. The westerner had opened the pot Dn four kings. As soon as he stood pat the southerner broke a pair of Sixes and held the four, five and six of spades in bis hand, hoping against hope to make a spade flush. Be was dealt tbe seven and eight of Bpades, making a straight flush. The western member OKUrt say a word when be learned what had hap pened, but It wo noticeable that didn't touch a cord again during that session. Washington Post A Kitten's Intelllceaee, A hungry kitten was put into a cage, tho door of which would fall open when a loop of wire that bung In front of the cage was pulled down an luck. The kitten tried to squeeze betweev the bars, clawed and bit at them. thrust its paws out between the bars and clawed at various loose object In the cage. It clawed the loop several times, but not with enough force to pull It down. After 160 seconds of such activity, it happened to claw the loop hard enough, and so escaped. After it had eaten the food outside, it was put Into the box again. There was a repetition of the-same activities, but the successful movement came this time after thirty second. Oa the next trial, general activity for ninety sec onds was required before the kitten es caped. With repeated trial the asso ciation between the Interior of the box and the act of clawing at the loop be came fixed, so that finally the kitten would do It In a few. econda that la, as soon as put into the box. This progress is shown In the time taken in tho different trial. They were 160, 30, 00, 60, 15, 23. 20. 80, 22, 11, 10. 20, 12, 10, 14, 10, 8, 8, 0, 10, 8, 6, 6 and fj seconds. Professor K. Ik Thorndlke la International Monthly. A Scotch Antisralf taw. Scotland, as everybody knows, Is the land where golf originated and the land where it most flourishes. Bat if the law were strictly enforced north of the Tweed it would go hard with the play ers of the royal game In "Bonnie Bcot- land." Golf playera there may not know it, but they are liable to a sen tence of death for their Indulgence In their favorite sport Technically, this , Is literally a fact In ancient times,! when Scotland always had svork for her soldiers to do, all young men svere required to perfect themselves to arch ery. They preferred to play golx, and lT!? 1L . .i made a capital offense. That curious law never has been repealed and may still be found on the statute book. There seems to be no record, however, of the law ever having been enforced. Brownlaa-'a Car Fair H Smith.
