Thinking the hens did not use their dust bath as much as they ought and believing the reason for this to be because the dust material was so cold, I changed conditions in this way: A dry goods bo:; three feet long, twenty inches wide by eighteen inches deep, was obtained. The bottom boards were removed and a new bot tom nailed on, which was one-fourth inch thick. Another box, Just enough larger to allow the first to slip inside easily, was next found. This was placed in the sunniest spot in the henhouse and filled to within four inches of the top with fresh horse manure. On top of this, says the Farm and Home, the smaller boi was set and filled to with in six inches of the top with sifted hard coal ashes and some powdered tobacco stems. In a short time the ashes felt warm and the hens soon found this out. They have kept re markably free from lice, due, I be lieve, to the tobacco. Fresh horse manure is put in two or three times during the winter. . Best Time to Sow Alfalfa. M. D. R. A., Lucketts, writes: I desire to sow sit acres In alfalfa. 1 plowed the land in May and am going to lime it at the rate of thirty bushels per acre to sow in August. When is the best time to sow in the fall? What is the best way to cultivate and fertilize alfalfa? Answer: Lime tho land Intended for alfalfa by all means. From twen ty to thirty bushels is a liberal amount to use. Use twenty pounds of good, clean seed and test its germ inating power before using. The seed should be passed through a sieve of twenty meshes to the inches in order to remove dodder which is a mest pernicious pest, and as there is much of it in alfalfa seed it will pay you to sieve it carefully by hand be fore sowing. If the season is favor able, you may sow alfalfa from the 15th of August to the 15th of Sep tember. Early sowing is advisable so the alfalfa can make a strong de velopment before cold weather, but it should not be allowed to go into the winter with too much as it may be injured by severe freezing or smothered by heavy snow falling on the land remaining for some time. A complete fertilizer composed of nitrate of soda, acid phosphate and muriate of potash will be useful on land intended for alfalfa. Mix 300 pounds of high grade acid phosphate and 100 pounds of muriate of potash together and apply broadcast or with a drill at the time of seeding the al falfa. We prefer to seed alfalfa broadcast or distribute with one of the seeders now on the market and cover with a weeder. It should not be covered deeply. As soon as the alfalfa comes up apply the nitrate of soda at the rate of 100 pounds per acre. Put the nitrate on when the leaves are dry so as not to Injure them. The lime should be applied two or three weeks before the seed is sown. Liberal fertilization for al falfa is absolutely necessary even on the richest of our . land. Vegetable matter is an essential for this plant. Weeds are one of the worst pests with which it has to contend, especial ly when young, as it takes some time for alfalfa to establish itself. You are acting wisely in summer fallow ing your land so as to free it of weeds. When the alfalfa is well up a good top dressing of well rotted farmyard manure at the rate of ten to twenty loads per acre will be very helrful. What the Growth of Winter Cereals One 3Ian Sa-.v. If you want to do some sawing with a cross cut saw and no one to help you, take a green hickory pole, or any wood that will bend without breaking, about the size of a bean pole, take off one of the saw handles, split one end of pole three or four inches, bore a small hole In it.j and put on end of saw and put a .nail through pole and hole in saw that you took handle off. Now bring pole over to other han dle in a circle and fasten to top of saw close to handle; this holds saw BtiaT so one man can saw just about as well as two. This rig is ficefor sawing up stove wood.

A dispatch from Nashville, Tenn., says the demand for the Christmas Red Cross Stamps is becoming great er every day. Merchants are tele phoning constantly to headquarters for more stamps, and the first supply at the office is almost completely ex hausted. More, however, are being rushed from the War Department at Washington and will be here in a day or so, before the supply is exhausted Destroying Ox-cyo Daisy, Etc. A. J. S., Allanstand, N. C, writes: I have some very steep mountain land of a dark loamy soil overlying a red sandy subsoil. Would like to know the best grass for such land for pas ture? How would alfalfa do on this land? I would like a plan for de stroying the ox-eye daisy. Answer: It is rather hard to say just how well certain varieties of grass or alfalfa might succeed under tho conditions outlined In your let ter. A grass that will form a sod would be best, of course, for very steep land, and blue grass would be excellent for the purpose, provided the climatic conditions will enable you to grow this grass successfully. You do not mention the elevation, hence I am, not prepared fo say how well blue grass will be on your land. From 2000 feet up blue grass as a rule will do fairly well. Next to it as a sodding gras3 would be red top, though orchard grass will answer the purpose very nicely, and will ba more likely to succeed under a variety of conditions than any of the other va rieties mentioned. It also makes ex cellent grazing, and you will find it a hardy and satisfactory grass in every way, the virtues of which as a rule are not fully appreciated. The land described might grow al falfa very well if it is rich. Alfalfa loves a dark loamy soil, and one of the reasons why we have a good deal of difficulty in starting it in the South is because of the tenacious character of, our subsoils. Judging from your letter this would not be a difficulty in your case, and so I think it would pay you to try alfalfa on a small area. Sow an acre in the fall from the 1st to 15th of September, fertilize the land well with phosphates and potash and top-dress the young alfal fa with nitrate of soda after it is up. The nitrate of soda should be put on when the leaves are dry so as not to burn them. There is only one plan of destroy ing the o::-eye daisy with which I am familiar, that is the persistent culti vation of the land and cutting the plants so as to prevent their seeding. They seed very freely, as you doubt less know if you have had experience with this pest. Summer fallowing the land or putting in cowpeas to act as a smother crop will help you to control the pest. Fight it for all you are worth, for it 13 a fearful nuisance and will spread all over your farm unless you hold it in check. Restraining a Horse. An old horseman gave me his way of restraining a fractious horse which answers the purpose in good shape. It is a strap from the foreleg a little above the knee to the halter and fast ened, with buckles at each end. The strap is two feet long or about right to hold the head nearly level. The contrivance makes unruly action very difficult and unpleasant for the horse, and he finally learns to behavei with out its aid. I. A. L., Middlesex 'Coun ty, Connecticut. Fertility Removed by the Cotton Crop R. S. S., Memphis, Tenn., writes: Pleaso give rae the amount and value of the elements of fertility consumed by the cotton crop from an acre of soil. Answer: When cotton yields about 17G.67 pounds of lint per acre, which is not far from the average yield, the sale of the lint removes from each acre of land forty-nine pounds of ni trogen, twelve pounds of phosphoric acid, and 1.13 pounds of potash. As there are about two pounds of seed produced for each pound of lint per acre, we would have a yield of 65 3.34 pounds of seed cotton. This seed cot ton if sold from the farm would re move 10.85 pounds of nitrogen, 3.6 pounds of phosphoric acid and 4.1 pounds of potash ; the total amount of "'ant food removed per acre would then De jl 'x.I ' "Tinds of nitrogen, 3.72 pounds of phospnoric acid and 5.23 pounds of potash. A yield of one bale per acre, or about two and a half times the average yield, would remove 28.33 pounds of nitrogen. 9.30 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 13.07 pounds of potash from each acre of land. If our farmers would be taught to feed the cotton seed meal at home and feed it, we would not experience so much difficulty in maintaining the fertility of our lands. from the stores. One thousand, one hundred and eighty stamps were sold at' Phillips & Butorff 's on Monday, the first day the stamps were put on sale, and on Tuesday 1.283 were sold from the same store. This firm is so interested in the sale of the Christ mas stamps that they have placed the attractive stamp table near the door in a conspicuous place, even going so far as to close one side of the door. "Home Grown Cow Feed." It is neoessary for a milk cow to have the right sort of feed, in order to get the most milk for the least cost. The right kind of feed means feed containing the right kind of nutri tious elements in the right propor tions. Protein and Carbohydrates are the principal feeding elements. Protein is the most important for milk, and it is also the most expensive. Peas and peavine hay in abundance is most excellent feed for milk production. But sometimes the farmer has to buy feed for his cows, and he should know what is the most profitable to buy. He must never forget that Pro tein is the great measure of value, lie must insist on a guaranteed analy sis of Protein. Wheat bran contains 15 per cent Protein, and is a splendid feed. But, the cost is too high for this part of the country, because it must be freighted from the west. It costs about $32 per ton laid clown. " If any one in the cotton growing States wants to buy cattle feed, there is nothing to compare with "Bove ta." which is the trade mark adopted by the Southern Cotton Oil Company, of Charlotte, N. C, for their machine mixed riseal and hull feed. It is guar anteed 17 per cent Protein and may be bought for $19 per ton f. o. b. Charlotte. It is almost twice as cheap as wheat bran, when feeding quality is considered. The feed is proportion ed out by machinery and mixed by machinery, so that it runs marvelously uniform. A most important thing for a cotton grower to consider is the fact that "Bovcta" is strictly a home-grown feed, and in buying this feed, he is patronizing himself. It is made en tirely from cotton seed. Itch cured in 30 minutes bv Woolford'f Sanitary Lotion. Never tail. At druggists. ' Covers Dixie Like the Dew.
