Truck farmers are organizing all
over the country for the purpose of ,
seeing that only good products of
proper grade and properly packed are

Care of the Young Horse.
Work with young horses imended
for next season’s work while you have
time this winter. Halter and stall
them, groom them daily and harness
them frequently so that they become
accustomed to your working with
them. It requires time for the young
horse to find out many things required
cf it in regular work. If it is first
taught the feel of the halier and har
ness there will be less of it to think
about when it is hitched up for work.
A well-broken horse is worth tmuch
more than one poorly broken. In sell
ing the horse that is the first inquiry
of the buyer.
Lime on Alfa.fa.
If you have tried to raise alfalfa
and after making a good seed-bed,
sowing good seed, and doing your
> part well have failed, then try lime.
i Alfalfa demands an alkaline soil.
, ; It flourishes best where there is nat
ural lime in the soil. Where those lit
tle stones of lime that are soft on the
outside when you plow them out are
1 found in the field you can depend
upon it that there will be lime enough
there 1o grow alfalfa.
; But where soils are deficient in nat
ural lime then it must be applied In
artificial form. It works wonders and
solves many a problem in alfaifa
! growing.

Effect of Good and Bad Roads.
In issuing a call for a state good
roads meeting that was held at Louls
; vllle on September 17 Gov. Augustus
: E. Willson of Kentucky said:
‘‘There is nothing which hurts the
! people more or cost the people more
or keep them back more than had
roads. They make It hard to leave
home, hard to get back, hard to haul,
hard to visit, hard to get to heaven
sometimes. There is nothing that a
man can think of that will do more
to help the people than good roads,
which make it easy to travel, easy to
bring goods home, easy to haul your
produce and manufactures to marke.,
easy to go to school and church and
easy to avoid many hitter thoughts
> that had roads cause."
Stealing March on the Bugs.
Millions of dollars of damage is
done every year in this country by
Insect pests. One of the worst of
these is the San Jose scale, a small
soft-bodied insect which affixes itself
to the tree and sucks the Juices, while
injecting a poison which speedily re
sults in the tree’s death. According
to H. H. Howlands, who writes in
Suburban Life, this is the time of the
year when the owners of trees should
"steal a march on the hugs," and so
save many dollars’ worth of fruit.
There are several solutions that can
be sprayed on the tree which will
kill the scale. The best are lime
sulphur wash and soluble oils, both
of which may be obtained from deal

contains no harmful ingredients and can be depend-1

Whitewash Saves Peaches.
The warm days of late February
and early March often cause the bud
on peach trees to swell; and ihey are
then killed by low temperature. It
has been demonstrated by careful ex
periment with thermometers covered
with purple and white cloths that the
former registered from 10 to 20 de
grees higher than those covered with
white. This demonstrates the reason
why the peach buds start to swell
with the first, warm days. It is the
sun heat that they absorb. To avoid
this, white wash the trees. They will
need two sprayings to cover them
thoroughly. Ordinary whitewash will
not remain on the trees any length
of time, but by using one part of skim
milk to four parts of water in the
wash, and then adding a pound of salt
to each bucketful before spraying it
can be made to stick for several
weeks.
If the creamery centralziers claim
that it costs them six cents to produce
a pound of butter and the co-operative
creameries claim that they can pro
duce a like amount for tnree cents,
why not establish more co-operative
creameries? Co-operative creameries
are paying propositions when run
right, but don’t let some promoter
come Into your community and try
to start a co-operative creamery. You
will be the loser if you do.
Do not think that because you do
not have running water on your place
that you cannot keep ducks success
fully. While good running water is
a mighty nice thing and less trouble,
in raising ducks, yet some of the
large duck breeders depend entirely
upon artificially-supplied water. It is
necessary to have good large square
box troughs set in the ground almost
to the level with a spout running into
it from the well so that a few strokes
from the pump will refill these places
with but little troub e.
Sorghum.
We doubt if enough attention is
paid in the South to the growing cl
sorghum. Those who use molasses
cannot find a more healthful article
than good sorghum molasses, and the
demand always exceeds the supply.
In any grocery or provision store one
may find manufactured syrups nicely
put up in gallon buckets ,and selling
freely at good prices. These manu
factured syrups are nothing like as
good as is pure sorghum molasses.
Hundreds of small factories might
be profitably established all over the
region mentioned, that would give
employment to thousands of people,
make an easily grown farm product
profitable and furnish a who'esome
article of food. All that is required
is enterprise enough to put the arti
cle up in attractive style—in gallon
buckets like the manufactured syrup
is put up.
And there is no better food for cat
tle and sheep than sorghum fodder,
if it is well cured. This is thought
to be a difficult thing to do, but we
are sure there is ingenuity enough
among farmers to devise a way to etc
so j olitably. The seed is anotnei
valuable side line. Sorghum seed is
now quoted in the market at $1.40
net hundred pounds. Besides theie
is scarcely any better poultry food
and it is understood to be a good
feed for hogs.
There is another bv-product well
wotfh mentioning, and tHac is the
shimmings from the boiling juice; it
is an excellent and strong fat produc
ing slop for hogs. And we believe
though we have not tried it, that it
would be valuable with which to mix
ground feed for fattening cattle.
b'orghum for syrup should not be
grown on tlm manured land, nor on
tirit bottom lands. It grows luxuri
antly in such soils, but the mo asses
made*from it is sure to be dark, and
not of such good quality as that intuit
f.oiu sorghum grown on thin, clayed
soil.
Money in Dairying.
The new year hook of the United
Stales Department of Agriculture
values the total of all farm products
for the year 1907 at nearly seven and
one-half billion dollars. Of this total,
ihe dairy products amounted to eight
hundred mi.lion dollars. This, next
to the corn crop, was the largest of
any one crop, and was equal to one
third of all the cereals produced. It
will be seen that the dairy products
of our nation are no small item in
making up the national wealth! If in
addition to this the value of the by
products in the manure secured and
the calves and hogs produced without
extra expense, there would be no
trouble in showing that the dairy cow
is easily our greatest wealth-produo
ing factor. Dairying when properly
conducted not only takes less from
the soil, but Is becoming universally
recognized as the greatest agent
known for restoring the lost fertility
to run down and worn-out farms.
