In sharp contrast to the old manner of harvesting cane is the new Thomson machine. Screws straighten the cane so that rotating knives can lop off the tops. It then cuts the cane with a three-inch spaced blade saw at its bottom. The tops of the cane are sent through the chute. The harvester cuts about 20 tons per hour.

What can be done to Cure an outbreak of colds in my young chicks? I A. Colds are s caused by over crowding, overheating, chilling, bad ventilation, an unbalanced diet or any factor that will devitalize the birds and this cause should be found and corrected before any treatment is given. All advanced cases should be destroyed. Rigid sanitation 'should' be practiced and, as colds are contagious, a germicide should be placed in the drinking water. Do not look for immediate correction, as colds respond very slowly to treatment. A system of prevention is better than any pos sible treatment, Q. When .should lespedeza be seeded for a hay crop ? A. This legume should be sown on small grain in February or March. The Korean variety germi nates in about two weeks and care should be taken not to seed too early. The other varieties germi nate in from four to five -weeks and may be seeded earlier than the Korean. If old seed are used, these should be tested for germination before seeding. All seed should be sown early enough to insure the young plants becoming well . estab lished before hot, dry weather, but late enough to avoid heavy freezes. Q. How soon may vegetable plants be set in open fields? A. This depesds, first, on the temperature requirements of the different crops. Hardy crops, such as cabbage, collards, kale, lettuce, mustard, onions, spinach, parsley, and the smooth-seeded garden peas may be planted in the open from six to eight weeks before the last killing frost. The tender crops, such as beans, cucumbers okra, peppers, pumpkin, tomatoes, and sweet corn should not be piantea until danger of frost U over. all CLOVER ON PASTURE A new idea in pasture improve ment has been developed in Madi son county where the farmers seed ed crimson clover on their pasture sods last fall.
