It is easy to grow; it does not x'gquire replanting oftener than once in nine or ._ ten year's; it can be cropped in the au- - tumn or in the spring. and it yie.ds large crops of shoots, which are often two feet Jong and an inch or nimre in { | . diameter at the base. white shoots are edible to their very bases without the least objectionable fiber and not in this respect like aspar- eat.\ . \¥ou cannot introduce a new vereta- authority to Mr. Fairchild. Mr. Fair child admits that the introduction of a. new vegetable is a long undertaking, } extending perhaps over the period of a out of account, as the means at our dis- posi today are immeasurably more powerful than they were even two dec- ades ago. The advent of the great ho- tels and the sympathetic inferest of the great magazines are two elements - which today make possible what yes | terday would have been. impossible. i A GOAL FOR THE FARMER. %: Every farmer «nould work out and adopt a permanent system of agriculture under which he can increase and maintain the fertEity of his land; enjoy a good living, rise in social value and wield a good influence in his community. Poultry Piskings. Darkening the rests is one way to Earthen water fourtains in the pou!l- try yard are better than tin ones. The former will keep the water cooler in These brilliant | summer and warmer in winter. It'is an old saying \that too much care will kill a cat.\ and it is also true ' of chickens. | While there is certain ' daily wark to be done,. it is not neces- sary to enddle the chicks and try to be with them all the time. A ben in the best laying condition , has some surp'us fat on her may.“ This means that her bodily wants have been supplic G. and there is some! to spare. A very fat ben seldom lays“ well. A poor hen cannot lay well. An average of 150 eggs per ben: dur- ing the first year of laying is fairly good laying. Pulltets in good health apd vigor should average this number of eggs. During the second year they will lay about 25 per cent fewer eggs and each succeeding year correspond- | ingly fewer. \ A poultry keeper gives a reripe for | a dry mash which contains a large; amount of nitrdcenous food and says it is especially good for férding pul- lets.

The Towa Homestead, from which these pictures and this description hive been taken, says: Following is a description of a good, cheap barbed wire spool that a sub- scriber of Lyon county, Ia.. forwards: Take a pigce of 2 by 6 siz feet long and rip it in two and nail the two pieces together in the center to make . ETOOL FOR BARBFD WIRE,\ them like the letter X. Then take four pisces about tweive inches long and nail on the ends of these first two pieces, nailing them on crossways, and . drive. nails in both euds to hold the | . wire on. Now lay your barbed wire out a short distznce from the fence-a few feet is plenty-and fasten one end of the wire - on the end of one of these twelve inch pieces and rol the spool along over . the wire. and you can take it up as - fast as you can wallgx. as the spool will be as high as a man's head. and he can stand up straight to take up the wire, and it can be unrolled just as easily. To unroll wire from the spools on which it comes take two pieces of 2 by 4 four feet long and bore a ho'e in ° one end about the size of the holes in a barbed wire spool; then take and nail a wids board or a few narrow boards about eighteen or twenty inches long ; of these 2 by 4's, and have them just a | CROSS SECTION OF BARBED WIRE SPOOL, little wider than the spool, and nail a | narrow board on the opposite end of | 1 the 2 by 4's from the holes. | Then take a stick that will go through | the holes, put the spool! of wire in be- tween and run the stick through the , 2 by 4's and barbed wire spool and tike hold of the natrow board on the other end and pull along on the ground ' where the fence is wanted. You can unroll barbed wire with ease and never get cut by the wire. o $ when you make repairs. $ & In making repairs upon the 3 z; premises iit is an ccono:mic loss (\ & to do shoddy and temporary 4 & work.

Various districts in Germany ara pe- titioning the forest department to res. sue the walnut trees of the country from the gradual extinction which threatens them. In times when the land was less thickly populate It was customary for farmers-and large lap owners to plant walnut tiges on tfielr properties and along the roads, 'but madern science has taught that not only is the shade thrown by the spreading tree tops unfavorable to profitable cultivation, but that a cer- tain amount of tanric acid is- com tained in the nuts and injuriously af fects the soil on which they fali. The natural result of the decrease iw the number of walnut trees is a rise in price of the timber, and whereas in. the '608, a cuble theter of . the wood cost from $\ to $12 it now costs from $50 to $90. * 20+ 9 First La Grippe, Then Bronchitis.
