The increased value of the land is in addi tion to the farmer's wealth. Sh limn HU a? nu Insect Destroyer. It may not be generally known that skiinroilk or buttermilk readily mix with kerosene, forming an emulsion which destroys Insects without the danger of injury to animals or plants on which they might be that migbt result from the use of the pure oil t;r of oil and water. We first learned of this from using this mixture for the scale insect or mite which causes scaly legs on fowl. We found that one or two dippings or washings with it would cure the worst case of Bea ly leg,, and leave the skin as smooth as when first hatched. We never had occasion to try lt for lousy animals, for we never had one, but we do not hesitate to recommend it, and we have lately seen its use advised for ticks ou sheep, using a gill of kero sene to one gallon of mtlk. We do not make our mixture ns strong of kerosene as that, but perhaps the i larger tick may need a stronger appli cation than an Insect so small as to be scarcely visible to the naked eye. -Thc Cultivator. Bee Hints. It is an old, old fashion to usc smoke with bees; but Mr. Robert Davis gives his explanation of it: "Bees when frightened by smoke w.ll Immediately gorge tkemselvts with houey and . loose all inclination to sting." Here follow some practical hints to beekeepers which are given by Mr. Davis In the New York Journal: The most vicious colony of ?yblrtfs may bb controlled by using a liltlii tobacco in the smoker. The prosperity of a colony depends .upon tlie fertility of the queen. If weak, colonies have not become popu lous lu some season, kill the quceu and give them another. Toads, skunks and mice are great eneuiic^ta bees; see *hat-'they do not r'hnve"*access to the apiary. ? ' Increasing or dividing should be done ns early as possible, but not un "UY stores" are coming* abundantly. Drones are Just as essential as any other bees; but too many are a nuis ance. This may be controlled by cut ting out drone-comb and substituting worker-comb or foundation. Drones may be prohibited in ob jectionable colonies by dividing early In the spring. Keep all colonies strong. Value of Sorghmn. . Sorghum as a. forage crop has given great satisfaction in most places where it hus been tried.. and. . where It has failed to give satisfaction tbs cause has usually been found to bc* that lt was harvested too late. At the Nebraska experiment station lt has been grown for forage for milch cows, and in the matter of yield and as a milk producer it has proved superior to any of the non-leguminous forage plants, when fed green. Our ex perience with sorghum has bien on thin soils and lt grows well upon such soils. It is a much greater resister to drouth than corn is, and makes tine green forage when the grasses are dried up. Experiment and chemical analysis have/shown that when the plant is from two to three feet high it contains GO per cent, more nitro genous elements and a very much lar ger quantity of fats than it does when it has produced its seeds. We observe that Professor Thatcher, of the Nebraska station maintains that young sorghum ls an almost perfect stock food. This is not in accord with our experience. If pastured when about two feet high, it will give good results, but much better results will be obtained If dry feed is used with it Like all green forage plants, the water- in feed is of no more value to the animal than water In the trough ls. Of course If trie pasturing is done when the~pTant ls young, there will be a loss In yie'.dr and some have claimed that the differ ence in yield more than balances the superior composition of the young plant over the old. With Some crops the excessive yield makes them more valuable than another like crop of su perior feeding value. The mangel more than holds its own in compari son with the sugar beet, because of its large yield. Bat so far as we have been able to determine, the best value can "be got out of it when it is young. But while lt makes a good fodder, it does not make a superior one. Stock te.very fond of it, a result no doubt of its saccharine qualities.-The Agri cultural Epltomist Fattening Stock Economically. Not every farmer can fatten an ani mal economically. The ability to do this must be acquired by study and practice. There are many branche" to this subject and their numerous conditions must be thoroughly under stood If the farmer would realize th?, most from his feeds. He must con sider the quality of food, warmth and quietness of stables and many other important Items. As in many other departments of farm labor, there is a great Jacking -here In sympathetic work. Some are Ignorant as to the best methods;"While others are care less of their re,al Interests and have BO - regularity ur-their work. Every farmer .seems fo have his own way, and lt ls too ofter! chosen with regard to the convenience of the feeding rather than the economy. ?.? *ii?&? w." . .? .<\ ~/ 3t .-? ,??.**. ?J t?er 's...

The area of the redwood belt has been carefully mapped, and is, ns nearly as can be estimated, 2,000 square miles, or 1,280,000 acres. The stand of timber on this area is not so easy to ascertain, but may be com puted at something over seventy-five billion feet. The annual cut by the mills is 250,000,000 feet. At the pres ent rate of cutting, therefore the sup ply will last 300 years. In Mendocino County, California, there ls nearly nine times as much timber on an acre as in the Southern pineries; in Hum boldt County upon 00,443 acres the average stand Is 84,000 feet per acre, nearly seventeen times as great as in the Southern States. There is one cause of destruction from which this tree ls entirely' exempt-that is, fire. Containing no pitch, but, on the other hand, a large amount of water, lt will not burn when green. No fire can run In a redwood forest. It ls the only one of our coniferous lumber trees which is thus exempt. Redwood Is in almost universal usc on thc California coast. He Felt Relieved.
