Not Exacting In Its Requirements of High Quality. The following process for forcing rhubarb given hy a Kansas farmer In American Agriculturist Is well adapted for securing an early spring crop: Rhubarb can be forced in a cellar, In a box, even In the kitchen or in well or poorly constructed forcing houses. It is perhaps most commonly forced in low double spanned, roughly and cheaply constructed houses. An excavation two to three feet deep may be innue uiid arcnoa over with a roof of boards or logs, covered with hay, straw or fodder and the dirt of the excavation thrown over the entire roof. No particular facilities are necessary for ' \ v* j^m' * ^ Wju FOUCED ltllUDAKll. ventilation. Unless In a severely coiil winter, the house can be heated by use of ordinary heating stoves. In more expensive houses and in case of extreme cold a system of hot water or steam heating would undoubtedly be advisable. Good, strong two, three or four year old plants are used in forcing. The plants to be used are dug in the fnll and, with their adhering soli, left lu the Held and covered with enough soli to prevent drying out. It Is best to leave them there until they have been frozen through. About January, earlier or later, as the case may be, the roots still retaining their soil are brought Into the forcing house. They are set or packed close together on the moist dirt floor. Moist soil, preferably a rich one, Is tilled In about each plant, covering the crown slightly. After they are once thus packed in they may not need watering, but the roots and soil ' should not be allowed to become dry. Only strong, vigorous plants will produce the large, thick stalks eighteen to twenty inches high. When properly grown, the forcing house product Is attractive. of delicate color, tender and of excellent llavor. After the plants have produced this winter crop of leaves they will have become exhausted and are of little or no value. Sowinci Sends. In regard to sowing seeds for an early start in the spring Country Oentlenian has the following, among other things, in the way of useful hints: Sow some enbhnge, eaulitlower, beet, onion, celery and lettuce seeds and string beans in your hotbed, or, if you have neglected to make one, sow your seeds in shallow hexes witli some cinders in the bottom and then filled with light, loamy soil. Sow thinly, cover lightly and put the boxes in a sunny window. In case you have hotbeds don't forget to give them plenty of fresh air on tine days, and water the seedlings freely. Continued Use of Silage. The argument is occasionally made "II" 4* %uuk UI? WIUUIUUU UW "I MIUIK*' ?HM U deleterious effect upon the constitutlou of the animal. The ground taken is that the acids affect the digestive functions and in time impair the tsxiily vigor and productive capacity.

( \ EXPERT Plan For Tasting the Quality of Sood Corn. Professor Holden, the western corn ( expert, has been making the rounds of , the New Engluud farui and New York atntc meetings, us reported in Ainerl- , can Cultlvutor. Besides describing his method of selecting seed corn, the pro- < fessor advances other ldeus with re- ' gurd to New England farm methods. 1 He udvocutes growing the cattle feeds ou the fui 1X1 and insists that eastern farmers will grow more dent corn and that alfalfa will soon be considerably grown here if farmers will thoroughly drain the soil to a sulllelent deptli to make the soil sweet, thoroughly pulverize It and make a firm, solid seed bed, sowing the seed early in August. Foes to the Corn FiolcJ. Professor Uolden told of his own work among the farmers of the west by taking them rlghjt Into their llelds and by personal Inspection showing them how they were farming at a sacrifice, in that their fields were producing but a fractional part of what they might be producing if every hill were filled and every stalk were productive. He showed the difference In the acreage with one, two and three good ears to a hill and thereby led up to the conclusion that the great source of loss In corn production is the poor seed which so many farmers use, either through carelessness or false economy. Testing the Corn. Coming down to the point in hniul, he presented n plan for testing the quality of seed corn by determining Its germinating power, showing those present the manner In which he was enabled to select the good ears and reject the had hy use of a germinating box, In which, In separate compartments, sample kernels from different ears were placed and their germinating power soon determined, the bottom of the box being filled with moist sawdust, a layer of thin muslin placed thereon and all packed down, the kernels then placed In the different compartments, covered with another thin piece of muslin, with more sawduHt on top, and again packed down. In due time examination shows the real germinating value of the samples from the different ears, and It Is easy to decide which ears to use for seed and which to reject. A SOILING CROP. Heavy Yields of Green Feed Under Favorable Conditions. Thousand lieudcd kale (Brassica oleracea) lias been grown In the Willamette valley for twenty-seven years. It attracted little attention among Oregon dairymen until recent years, but Is now rapidly becoming a very popular fall und winter soiling crop. It stands the mild winters west of the Cascade mountains admirably and Is hauled from the field and fed as needed. It does not head lip like cabbage, and the name "thousand headed" Is given It on account of the numerous branches the plants have when given plenty of room. It Is very much like rape, but the plants are much taller, and the leaves are longer and broader. It Is claimed that kale will yield thirty to forty tons of green feed per acre when grown under favorable conditions. Kale Is used for table greens, but Its chief use on the Pacific coast Is for feeding green to dairy cows from October to April, for which It is highly IN A HIUIiI> OK KALE. prized. If the growth la forced In the eurly spring, It can be fed much earlier than Oct. 1. Kale would probably be an excellent winter feed also for hogs and poultry. It does best on well manured, deep, rich lonms and sandy solls. The only objection to the use of kale Is the difficulty of getting It out of the Acid when the ground Is wet and muddy. For this reason well drained luiul should lie selected upon which to plant this crop. Where the weather is quite cold kale Is not sufficiently hardy to stand out during the winter, nml Its use as u soiling crop would be limited to the fall. Proper Time to Plow Land. The nmnnr tlm<?

If continued rain follows wet plowing, little harm follows, hut hot, dry winds would soon leave only a mass of unmanageable clods. In spring and midsummer plowing particularly It Is of the utmost lm portance to run the harrow immediately after the plow. This prevents the formation of clods.?W. J. Splllman.

It Is explained, however, that this low cost would be possible only when large numbers of posts ire ma4e. * - ,, .i i m i . / PEACH CULTURE. Approved Methods Practiced at Texas Experiment Station. After the tree Una been set there are two methods of cultivation clean cul tare and what I have termed cropping, ?writes Professor 10. (J. U recti to or nn^e .ludd Farmer. The li.'st consists In keeping the soil between the trees clean and free from weeds and crops This method gives by far the most vlg orons and cleanest growth to the tree and requires less time in cultivating it, but on aecoftut of there being no return for a period of approximately three years few growers can afford to follow out litis met hod. Cropping the Orchard. < Tnimimr I lie orchard ?> ?? for rod to tin* Cornier inotliud wlion one exercises the proper care and judgment. 1 have trees growing on the station grounds that have made a remarkahlo growth in the last seventeen months, while at the same time three crops have Ween gathered from the land, and the fourth one is now growing. The effect of the crop upon the tree depends largely upon its nature and the season at which It is grown. Do Not Grow Corn or Hay. 1 would never advise growing corn or hay between trees, as these crops rob the soil of a great deal of its moisture and will nearly always stunt the trees. Cow peas when planted in very early spring and allowed to remain on the land all through the summer will be almost sure to rob the tree of much of Its growth. I have found the following to be a splendid rotation of crops for the orchard: Potatoes planted In February and dug during the latter part of May, followed in about ten days with cowpeas which can be turned under during the tlrst part of September. A fall crop of cabbage, cauliflower or any of the fall vegetables can then be planted. Throe Crops In Ono Year. The potatoes and fall crops are fertilized and taken from the soil, while the peas receive no fertilizer, but are turned under. This gives three crops In one year without the slightest injury to the trees, provided space is left to keep ground on each side of the trees cultivated. It is never safe to plant over four rows the tlrst year, three the second and two the third. A fatal mistake is made if the rows are run close enough to the trees so as to cut off cultivation us soon as the plants get their growth. The following crops can be safely recommended if planted between peach trees, provided the precautions mentioned above are taken: Potatoes, early vegetables, cotinn nn\ri wo?o " *1 vvrut vu ii | 11 lli-l, |/VllllUiri, 11 11' 1* M I IS 1111(1 1 sweet potatoes. The Time For Planting. I would never advise the cropping of the trees In early spring after they have eoine into hearing. The plants will deprive the tree of food and moisture Just when the greatest amount Is needed for the ripening of the frnit. The time for planting crops in a bearing orchard is Just about the time fruit Is gathered. GATE WITHOUT HINGES. Utilizing Elevator Roller From an Old Dinder.

To support the gate at the top use a short plank live inches wide and one and one-half Inches thick. This makes a very good gate and requires no hinges and little time. ?Practical Former. Increased Value of Manure. The greatest value obtained from ft manure spreader, of course, Is In the increased value of the manure. It has often been said that a load of manure spread with a spreader is equal to three spread hy hand. It is more than probable that tlds statement is true.

There are hundreds of water courses which are dry nearly all I he year, but which carry large quantities of water In spring and after heavy rains. If this water should he diverted and allowed to soak into the subsoil It would serve the same purpose as summer fallowing, with the added advantage of the production of a crop every yenr. This kind of Irrigation Is commonly designated as winter Irrigation because the most land can be watered then? Elwood Mead. STATE OP BOUT 11 CAROLINA, County of Horay. Court of Common Pleas.
