If the thousands of little hahies who have been
cured of agonizing, Itching, burning, bleeding,
Scaly, nnd blotchy skin and scalp diseases could

can appreciate the agony these little ones suffer,
nnd xvhen these grent remedies relieve in a single

which are worth quite as much as the
solids, and the solid manure is often
permitted to heat and hum to nu extent
that deprives it of half tho nitrogen it
contains. Horse manure, which tins tho
liquid mixed with it, will very surely
burn so as to injure it if nothing bo
mixed with it. Tho host and the most
nvaihiblo material to use for an absorbent
is fine dry muck; not wot muck, but
well dried. It should ho dug out sov-
oral years before used, and to make it
fine nnd dry, it should bo spread on dry
land, say two or threo feet thick, and
the plow and cultivator run over it
often enougti to prevent tho growth of
Wli
grass or weeds. When it gets fine and
dry it should ho put under cover, where
it will be bandy to tho cattle, ami where
it will -bo perfectly dry. With such
material at hand the farmer can save all
of tho waste materials of both tho house
nnd barn Hint have in them tho elements
of plant food. It requires hut a very
small quantity of this material to absorb
tho liquids of tlie farm or to prevent the
escape of ammonia. But when tho
fanner attempts to prevent waste by
carting to liis barnyard large quantifies
of green muck, lie makes a great mis
take, for it will not absorb the liquids,
and it. to a considerable extent, injures
the solids; first, by delaying decomposi
tion when applied to the soil, and
second by filling the soil with an acid

THE FUTURE OF AGRICULTURE IN
AMERICA.
‘‘An expert of the Powell irrigation
survey claims that the irrigable lands
of the Central Wert, now wholly l>ar-
ren, will make eight states like Indiana.”
This statement is depressing agricul
ture in the North. Indiana now mak* >
71,400.000 bushels of corn and 47.S28.000
bushels of wheat. Duplicate that eight
times over and you will understand what
n burden of overproduction of com and
wheat the farmers of the North anti
West will labor under. Already in
many parts of the West corn is burned
ns fuel because it cannot be sold at
Let tlie incoming tide of foreign farmers
occupy tho immense unsettled tract—
furnishing eight rimes the arable land
of Indiana—let them go to raising corn
and wheat, nnd it is easy to see what the
result will is*.
How different is it with the farmers
of tlie South. Here we have a monopoly
of the lso( money crop that is grown from
the soil. A territory fifty times the size
of Indiana may be "added to onr farm
area, lint it does not increase one pound
the yield of cotton. This is tlie Southern
farmers’ monopoly. The South will and
must remain the world's supply for
staple. Twenty years ago the foreign
supply of cotton was nearly equal to the
American supply. But the foreign sup
ply lias decreased 2,000,000 bales, and the
American supply lias increased 4,000,090
bales. Egp t, Brazil, India, Russia—
none of these can compote with tho
Southern States of America in supplying
tlie world with cotton. It is our monop
oly. It is what God gave us when lie
intended that these states wo all love so
well should come into their inheritance
at last, even though they come through
travail and sorrow.
This method of treatment for smut in
wheat and oatsis worth $1,000,000 to tho
farmers of Michigan, and in proportion
to tlie crop, is valuable in Georgia. It is
taken from Bulletin 87 of tho Michigan
Experiment Station:
MOTHOD OF TREATMENT FOR SMUT IN
WHEAT,
Have two kettles of water not more
than two 'eet apart. Kettle No. 1
should contain warm water (from 110
degrees to 130 degrees Fahrenheit.) Tlie
water in kettle No. 2 should be heated
to 135 degrees Fahrenheit, "The first is
for tlie purpose of warming tho seed
preparatory to dipping them" into the
TJif
second. Unless this precaution is taken
it will be difficult to keep the water in
the second vessel at the proper tempera
ture.” The seed to lie treated should bo
placed in a sack that will allow the
water to pass through reudily (a coarse
di
gunny sack is good.) According to the
size of tho kettle, tho sack may contain
from one-half to one bushel. A less
amount will make tlie process slow and
a larger amount will be unwieldy, and
some of tho kernels may escape treat
ment. Dip tlie wheat into kettle No. I,
lifting it out nnd plunging it in two or
three timos. This process will take hut
a minute or so. Now dip .it into tho
second kettle with water at 134 dogroos
or 135 degrees; keep tho vvlioat well
stirred. Perhaps there is no better way
than to lift it out and plunge it in sov
"''"i This should he continued ten
eral times,
or fifteen minutes, according to tho tern
poraturo of tho water, and then spread
out to dry. A second person should reg-
late tho temperture of the water and do
nothing else. Probably it will lie found
host to have a fire under kettlo No. 2
sufficient to raise tlie vvuter to 145 degrees
or 150 degrees Fahrenheit, and then add
cold water to reduce it to 134 degrees or
135 degrees Fuhronhoit when tlie seod is
put in.
If at tho end of ten minutes tho tem
perature of the water has not been re
al
need below 133 degrees, the seed should
lie removed and dipped into cold water.
If below 133 degrees Fahrenheit, it
should be left in fifteen minutes or even
longer if tlie temperature should fall
below 130 degrees.
FOR SMUT IN OATS.
The treatment is essentially the same
for oats except that tlie temperature of
tho water in kettlo No. 2 should be 13(i
degrees or 140 degrees Fahrenheit when
tlie outs are put in. If at the end of ten
minutes tho temperature is not below 135
degrees, the oats should be removed and
dipped into cojd water; if below 135 de
grees they should be left in fifteen min
utes, or even longer if tlie temperature
falls below 135 degreos Fahrenheit.
When taken out dip in cold water.
Tho hundreds of experiments con
ducted in Kansas, Indiana and other ex
periment stations with treated and un
treated seed sown side by sido, have
shown tho practical value of this liiothod.
Professor Swingle and Professor Ar
thur tell me that tho farmers who have
tried it in Kansas and Indiana are en
thusiastic in its favor. Had all the
farmers of Michigan treated their seed
last spring, there would have been saved
to the state more than a million of dol
lars. The farmers who raised twenty
acres of oats with straw, promising fifty
bushels per acre, received only forty-five.
In other words the farmer loses 100
bushels of oats. This is a low estimate,
for in no case whore farmers actually
counted the smutted stnlks did the per
cent fall below 8, and in many cases it
readied 20.
Tho loss on tho Collego farm this year
will not lie less than 350 bushels. The
cost of treating is very slight compared
with tlie damage done by the smut.
Three persons fa hoy and a girl to regu
late tho temperature of the water, one
man to do the dipping and another to pre-
Burial Cases
Metalio (Jasee, Caskets and Cof*
ins, of any Quality and Grade, al-
pare the grain for dipping aqd S’
it to dry) can easily treat enough seed in
a day nnd a half to sow twenty acres.
One man and a boy can heat enough for
ten acres in one day. The kettles and
tank of cold water should lie arranged
on one side of a post equally distant from
it in tho following manner:
One end of u pole should be fnstetiod to
the post. Tlie sack can bo tied to the
pole so that it will come directly over
tin* kettles as the mnn nt the end of the
pole swings it from one to the other.
This will bo found a very convenient way
for lifting and plunging the seed to se
cure thorough treatment. The farmer
who treats his seed will save several
times the cost of treatment the first
year.
KEEPING SWEET POTATOES.
The failures many farmers make in
keeping sweet potatoes through the win
ter is because they first let them get too
hot when first dng, and afterwards allow
them to lie chilled by cold—both condi
tions being fatal to the sweet potato.
First, dig the potatoes at the right
time. We believe it is jnst as erroneous
to dig an unripe potato for keeping, as it
is to pull an unripe ear of coni for plant
ing purposes. It is liest to dig just after
the first "killing'' frost, if the i>ototooa
are ri[>e. They are generally ripe about
that time. Examine them, and upon
breaking some of them the wound turn*
to a dark or blneish color, thev are not
ripe, and it will not do to dig them. But
if a milky substance runs from the
wound ami dint's over it. they are ripe
and shoirtll be dug.
Second, don't let the potatoes get wet
either by rain or dew after they have
been dug.
Third, smooth off the ground when'
vou wish to locate the hank. Put a
layer of corn-stalks on the smooth sur
face as thickly as yon can. and cross-lay
with another layer of stalks. Spread
over the stalks aUmt four inches 0M>iue
straw or any other kind of straw. Next,
nail together four planks or boanis.
f <ruiing a hollow. Bore holt's iq each
side of this tolerably thick; stand it o
end in the center of the straw aud pile
the potatoes around it. Put a layer of
straw over the (lotatoea, and a layer of
corn-stalks, sitting on end*, over if
Cover tlie stalks with dirt, spading;;
from clone around tlie bank, tutreby
forming a ditch to turn tho \v«t«r from
the jK'tatoes. Be sure to let the top' ena
of the boards extend a little abhve tho
top of the bank. Leave the top open
until a rain or cold snap cornea, then
cover with a piece of plank until tl
weather moderate i. This hollow fur
nishes a channel through which air can
readily reach tlie potatoes all around tho
conter, and should be kept open as much
us possible while tho weather is moder
ately cool, but as winter approaches it
should he kept closed. Potatoes always
go through a sweat after being banked,
nnd air distributed through them is
very essential.
FARMERS AND FAILURES.
Pin up two facts to be considered
when yon aro discouraged: Thoro are
fewer business failures among fanners
than among any other class; more men
begin without capital and become owners
of good business iu farming than in any
other vocation.
There is one part of the farm that is
not benefittod by drainages; that is tlie
manure heap.

Bodulously ns the partridges and pheas

The barn owl (Alueo flammous) is unde
niably tlie farmer's frieud and by no
means tlie sportsman’s enemy. From
observations made during the nesting
time it 1ms been calculated that it will
bring to its callow young a mouse about
once every twelve or fifteen minutes,
and as many as twenty good sized rats,
perfectly fresh, havo been counted in a
single nest. A nest containing five
owlets was placed under a hencoop,
and no less than twenty-four rats, largo
and small, brought there by tlie parent
birds, were found lying outside tlie coop
tlie following morning. — Edinburgh

DeHtroyer* of <• mush op per a.
There is a small reptile out west
known as the fence lizard, which
catches and eats a great many grass
hoppers. The species is very common
in the infested regions. Skunks are
most active enemies of tho insect and
have been known to r-sceiul trees for tho
purpose of catching them. For obvious
reasons it will hardly bo practicable to
encourage these particular mammals,
but no such objections would uppiy to
toads, which are apt to swarm wherever
the "hoppers” are, gobbling tlie latter
greedily.
Many piantors in California employ
flocks of turkeys for tlie purpose of free
ing their orchards and vineyards of
grasshoppers. Ono turkey will destroy
an almost incrediblo number in a single
day. Incidentally the birds aro fattened
at the cheapest possible rate. They aro
so fond of such food that sometimes
they devour too many and die of indi
gestion.—Washington Star.
The Daughter Speaks,
A lady, apparently of great wealth,
had been for more than an hour impos
ing upon the unceasing endeavors of a
patient saleswoman to fit with a ready
made costume the daughter of tlie “shop
per,” a child of about eight years. Tlie
hope of adding one more sale to her
day’s list buoyed tlie drooping spirits of
tlie saleswoman and made her indefati
gable in her efforts to please, but her
hope was in vain, for her customer final
ly suid, “Well, I will not decide now,
but 1 will return this afternoon,” where
upon her child quickly remarked, “Why,
mamma, we won’t have time to come
back here and tho nine other stores
where you’ve promised the sarno thing
today.”—New York Recorder.

A Valuable Gold Piece.
In 1787 a goldsmith of the name of
Brasher coined a sixteen dollar gold

it known, ull of which aro held at $3,000
each. This rare piece has the well
known motto stamped upon it in this
mixed up form, “Uniinn E Pluribuq.”

“Seeing is Believing.’
And a good lamp
must be simple; when it is not simple it is
not good. Simple, Beautiful, Good—these
j words mean much, but to see “The Rochester”
will impress the truth more forcibly. All metal,
tough and seamless, and made in three pieces only,
H\s absolutely safe and unbreakable. Like Aladdin’s
of old, it is indeed a “wonderful lamp,” for its mar
velous light is purer and brighter than gas light, -si
solter than electric light and more cheerful than either.
