AGIUOULTUREm,
i k anital in GROwiNU Contt.-Au
experiment in corn-planting, by the I
Iowa Uollege, last year, in three sepa- t
rate plantings, all put in on the same ti
day-May 6-each plant being 160 ti
square yards, resulted as follows: The ti
plat in which the hills wore 3 feet 10 p
incbes by 12 inches apart, with one st
stalk in a bill, produced at the rate of a:
69.00 bushels per acre; the plat planted a
3.10 by 20 inches-apart in the hillA, and o1
two stalks to a hill, produced at the q
rate 'of 67 bushels to the acre; att the of
third plat, planted 3.10 each way, with o
four stalks to a hill, produced only at w
the rate of 50 bushels to the acre. This d
is an important fact to know. The ex. 3c
poriment was conducted with the utmost sa
care for the express purpose of deciding oc
a question which has always given rise pi
to a great deal of discussion, ahko as to ri
the proper distances betwo < the hills w
and the rows, as well as the number of at
stalks in a hill. Twelve inches distance of
between the hills would bealmoat equal pi
to four grains in a hill at 3 feet 10 inch- sc
es apart and practically smounts, to pi
drilling, which of course demand addi- al
tional labor in removing the weeds, and of
cultivating the soil botween the hills w
with the hand-hoe, as the crop could be it
harrowed only one way. Vfhethor the Ic
extra bushels would pay the additional it
cost of labor, we do not prQtend to an
swer, though the established belief is
that it will not, and that is the reason sc
why so few farmers adopt the drilling pi
system. w_
MEADOWS AND PAsTUREs.--The frosts tl
of winter heave the soil, and it is well yj
to pass a roller over the meadows and hi
pastures, to firm the surface and make Ju
It smooth for the mowing machine. All P
stones loosened by the frosts should be O1
removed; large ones, if not needed for I
building purposes, may be sunk out of tl
reach of the plow. Meadows may be a'
much injured by live stock running it
over them in early spring, when the i
ground is wet, Any grazing done at to
this time is at the expense of the hay i
crop. It is far bettor to keep the ani- at
mals in the stables and yards until the l
pasture is able to furnish a full ration, d
or nearly so. g
Li
TiE soil should not be worked :hon W
too wet. Many a good field has been ti
nearly spoiled for yours by such treat
ment. The soil when workable will
crumble in the hand,instead of remain- ci
ing in a solid impression showing the as
lines of the hand. Next to manure for a
crops, success depends up"n thorough to
preparation of the soil for the sned. If cl
possible it should be so fine when rea- at
dy for sowing that a double handful can ti
readily be scooped up without digging gi
for it. tr
A GOOD sign of the times is that so
many young men in starting to farm a
adopt improved stock, and they become u
enthusiastic, earnest and ambitious,
which alone will bring success, and all
the more certain on the high tide of im- at
proved stock breeding. Stock of some a
kind is essential to successful farming,
and improved stock brings the best pro
fit, quickest returns and gives a charm
of prosperity and dignity to the farm.,

butter can only be secured through the o]
use of a percentage of now mich cows
in the dairy at all seasone. D)arlmugton wi
the famous Philadelphia butter-maker, gi
milks hisa cows for the butter only three IY
or four months after calving, then di- ol
verts their milk to cheese or to the sui,p- lit
ply of the city milk trade. Butter a'
made from the milk of farrow cows is ci
inclined to crumble and taste cheesy.
THE fol,owing rule for estimating the ci
amount of hay in a stack will be found LIl
approximately correct: Ini stack, Limo- pJ
thy, after ten days or two weelks' set- ll
Cling, 600 cubic loot to the ton; clover, b~
700, and p)rairie hay 550 feet. After tIl
thorough settling about 500 cubic feet bli
of timothy, 550 of clover, and 450 of
prairie hay. To get the cubic dimen
sions of a si ck, multiply the average ed
length, breadth and height together. aj
TI'inau is a grade of wheat in Oregon wa
known as Goose wheat, so called be- m
cause it originated from a fow grains ria
found in the crop of a uwild goose. The to
wheat hias a hardt outer husk. and the L1I
bran is very coarse; it makes a pecuhiar (di
gradoe of flour. Its exact dupicato is
found in a small pr'ovince of Spain,
and the inference is that the wild goose tI
must make p)rctty rapiid time. ft
