It is generally recognized throughout
Europe that the construction of suit
able lire lanes throughout the forest
conduces more to the prevention of
great conflagrations than any other in
stitution. These serve as vantage points
in tlie fighting of lire and often iu
themselves arc sufficient to.prevent its
spread. By means of fire lanes the

1 to have all his fri-hds call
stock and Dairy.
The Stcek Former-the Coining
Good Profit la Dairying.
I believe that the farmer should raise
as near pure bred stock as possible.
The razorback hog and the longhorn
caw have no place under fence. When
I was a boy, it was considered a waste
f, feed an ear of corn to anything but
a horse in winter time. A cow would
not cat anything but grass, and the
hog made bis own living in the woods.
The stock farmer is the coming man
in my opinion. The man who raises
corn and stock and feeds his corn to
the stock will be successful. A man
who raises corn and sells it for 2b cents
or 90 cents per bushel cannot make any
money, but by feeding it to his cattle
lie is sure to make money. By feeding
a calf until he is 2V> years old lie
can lie sold for $50. My principal in
terest is in farming and stock raising.
Some 12 years ago I employed a
dairyman and bought a herd of Jersey
cattle. I have been* developing my
dairy herd until now I am milking over
12b cows. This year I will sell $10,000
worth of milk, cream and butter from
my dairy. However, that is not all
profit. My cows pay me a very good per
cent on the amount invested. I have
110 trouble in selling my products.
I have 1,000 acres in cultivation, and
tlio most profitable part of my farm is
the dairy. I believe that every farmer
should raise some beef c-attle.—Gov
ernor Jester, Texas.
Coin Cubing Takes the Cheese,
Experiments in cheese curing which
have been conducted for two years at
the Geneva (X. Y.) experiment station
have results of the highest importance
irom the commercial standpoint,
cheeses have been cured at tempera
tures varying from bb degrees F. to SO
degrees F., the higher temperatures
representing the common factory con
ditions.
Of the cheeses made iu 1899 those
cured at 00 degrees F. and below
scored on the average almost five
points higher on flavor and 2.b points
higher on texture than those cured at
Gb degrees F. and above. In 1900 the
average difference in flavor of tlie
lower temperature was 5.1 points on
flavor and 2.7 points on texture.
This is a matter well worth the at
tention of all cheese factory managers,
because these differences in commercial
Quality are sufficient to cause im
portant differences in the selling price.
THE PICKLE WORM.
Summer Squash a Gocil Trap Crop.
Clean Cnltnre a Preventive.
The pickle worm is destructive main
ly to the fruit of the cantaloupe, squash
and encumber by eating cavities or
channels in the rind or by boring quite
to the interior. The first crop of cu
curbits, as a rule, escapes its ravages,
but late cucurbits are usually badly in
fested.
In the north the pickle worm may be
injurious only during occasional years,
but in the south, particularly the Caro-
Fall Gardening In tlie Sontli.
It is not too late to plant speckle
peas. Late roasting ears can still be
planted. Use some quick maturing va
riety of corn.
Now is the time to prepare land for
turnips and fall potatoes and io sow
late cabbage seed for winter crop. Any
time up to Aug. 20 will do for turnips
and potatoes.
Make the soil very fine. After the
seed are sown run roller over them. In
this way you will he more sure to get
a good stand.
Slips cut from tomato vines and set
now will make excellent crop of fall
tomatoes.
It is a good time to begin preparing
patch for setting strawberries.—South

One View of the Lister.
Iam sorry to see the lister used very
freely in some parts of Illinois on the
prairie soil. This tool is a sort of rotat
ing instrument and, while it forces a
crop from the soil, hastens tlie de
struction of it with unerring certainty.
The conservation of the prairie soils
depends upon shallow cultivation and
the balancing of the rich supply of
potash and nitrogen in them. The lister
users ignore the actual condition of the
soil and proceed to destroy some more
soil to liberate tlie plant food for a few
crops. There will surely be a reckon
ing day, for we must reap as we sow,
says Nat Zeba in National Stockman.

CANTALOUPE AND PICKLE WORMS.
linas, Georgia and Florida, cucurbit
fields are rarely free from it during
late summer and fall.
The pickle worm feeds on most vari
eties of cucurbits, but it has a decided
preference for the squash; therefore
trap plants of summer squash are used
as a protection, and as the trap crop
must be kept, growing as long as pro
tection is necessary seed is planted ev
ery two weeks or so.
The Georgia station in their advising
in regard to this worm says:
As with most other insects, clean cul
ture will here be of value. Collect and
burn the old cucurbit vines. Trash in
fence corners should be carefully raked
out and burned during the winter.
This year’s display of fireworks and

A Bright Jury.
In a larceny case in Maine it was
agreed to go on with only 11 men on
the jury. The trial lasted several
hours, and then the jury retired to
deliberate upon the evidence and find
a verdict. After being out four hours
the jury reported that it could not
agree, and accordingly It was dis
charged from further duty in the ease,
and the prisoner was remanded to the
jail, A little later the attorneys for tlie
respondent “got at” one of the jury
men and asked him how the vote stood
in the jury room.
“Well,” said he, “we balloted about
20 times, and each time there were 11
votes for conviction, but at no time
could we get 12 votes for conviction, sc
we had to report a disagreement.”
FIRE LANE IN A FOP.EST.
danger of great conflagrations very
materially reduced. These fire lanes,
in order to be efficient, must be wide,
clean and well cared for; otherwise
they are of little use.
Fire lanes may be constructed at
slight expense in southern New Jersey.
After the wood is cut it is necessary to
plow three or four furrows along the
edges and then to burn over the lane
at times when there is no danger of
setting lire to the neighboring woods.
A lane 50 feet in width would be quite
efficient.
The scheme which I have to suggest
is that these lire lanes be constructed
and kept in order in a way similar to
the construction of state roads, which
have been so popular of late. In this
way no terrible burden of expense rests
upon anybody. The individual bene
fited thereby pays part, the county an
other part, and the state pays the other
part.
New Jersey was the first state to
take any radical step toward the im
provement of her public highways.
The state aid law provides that, on pe
tition of the owners of two-tliirds of
the lands bordering any public road,
not less than a mile in length, asking
that the road be improved and agree
ing to pay 10 per cent of the cost, tbe
county officials shall improve the road,
one-tliird of the expenses to be borne
by the state, if the road is brought to
tlie standard fixed by tbe state com
missioner of public roads, and tlie bal-
lance— GG 2-3 per cent—by the county.
The state’s expenditures for such im
provements in any one year are limited
to $150,000, while the county is limited
to one-fourth of 1 per cent of its as
sessed valuation. Since 1895 the appli
cations for new roads have been far iu
excess of the limit prescribed by law.
It seems to me that it would be a
simple process to extend this system to
the construction cf fire lanes. It is
foolish to talk of forest culture until
fires are reduced in number. For this
purpose tire lanes are essential, and
this is the only scheme I know of
which seems practical and possible.
Once institute a perfect system of fire
lanes under combined state and local
control, and tlie number and severity
of the fires will be reduced to such an
extent that the evil will, I am certain,
gradually fade away, and modern sys
tems of silviculture will gradually
c-reep in as the value of wood and land
increases.—Dr. John Gifford Before the
New Jersey Horticultural Society.
A Wire Fence Tightener.
A wire fence tightener suggested by
an Ohio Farmer correspondent is sim

dle iu each hand and place on the wire,
either smooth or barbed, and go along
and kink the wire every four or six
inches, and it will not be long until the

wire will “sing” and be tight. It is a.
good way to make the wires all tight
alike, and I think it is a good plan to
kink the wires in a new fence, espe
cially smooth wires, for they will not
be so apt to break from contracting by
cold. If any person who reads this ar
ticle has loose wire fence, just get your
pliers and try it. The cut illustrates
the method of kinking.

Good For Storing Sweet Potatoes.
Storing sweet potatoes in cottonseed
hulls, cotton seed and sand in the
usual way has given best results at the
South Carolina station. Storing in
straw has given the poorest results. It
appears that cottonseed hulls are ad
mirably adapted for use in storing
sweet potatoes. The same is true for
cotton seed, only to a less extent.
Decorations at Atlanta Fair.
An elaborate scheme of decoration has
been carried ont at .the Southern Inter-
State Fair grounds in Atlanta this year.
The Fair will open on October 9ch and
already the work of decoration is near
ing completion. This will be inside and
outside the buildings and will - make the
Fair grounds more striking in appear
ance than ever before. Every day will
be a gala day at the Fair and with this
idea the management is doing every
thing possible to make the place at
tractive.

Death Gaieii.
A ravine in the northeast cornet o! I
Yellowstone National park, in Wyo- j
ruing, is known by those living near i v j
as Death gulch. Grewsome as is tui 1
name, it is exceedingly appropriate, ii
is a V shaped trench cut in the moun
tainside anil begins about 250 feet j
above Cache creek. Apparently it j
forms a natural shelter for the beasts!
of the forest, ns food, water and shelter i
are there, but entrance to the gulch j
means death to any animal, for the
poisonous vapors that rise, cut of the
ravine are more deadly than tlie bullets
of the huntsmen.
For ages titis death trap in tlie Rocky
mountains has probably been luring the
inhabitants of tlie forest to their doom.
With the rains of spring the bones ol
the dead of tbe preceding year are car
ried down to the creek and the gulch
cleared for the death harvest of the
summer and winter.
The geologists say that the lavas
which Dll the ancient basin of tlie park
at this place rest upon the flanks of
mountains formed of fragmentary vol
canic ejects. Gaseous emanations are
given out in great volume. These eoine,
tlie scientists say. from deposits of al
tered and crystalline travertine mixed
with pools in the creek. Above these
deposits the creek cuts into a bank of
sulphur. In tlie bottom of the gully is
a small stream sour with sulphuric
acid.
No wonder the poor animals seeking
shelter iu the gulch meet death there.

Great Atlanta Fair
Opens October 9th.
Atlanta’s great Fair will open on Oc
tober 9th. With its near approach the
Fair grounds in Atlanta are in better
shape than at any other time so close to
the opening in the history of Fairs in
Atlanta. Special efforts are being made
by Secretary Martin to have all exhibits
ready for the opening, and ic looks as if
he will succeed, as he has received as
surances from nearly all exhibitors that
they will be ready when the main gate
opens at 10 o’clock on Wednesday, Oc
tober 9ch.
The work ©f the Fair Association in
Improving the grounds and buildings
has been nractically finished and now it
only remains to put on the finishing
touches. This wili rake only a short
while. Meanwhile the various build
ings in which exhibits will be shown
have been opened to exhibitors and al
ready work nas been begun by some of
those who will have the most elaborate
displays.
The or i fare round trip to Atlanta
during the Fair will, ic is expected,
draw many thousands to Atlanta from
Georgia and states immediately adja
cent, while exhibits wiii come from as
far north as Boston and as far west as
Chicago and Sc. Louis.
A Carious Trap.
A curious labyrinth in which ele
phants are captured alive is to be seen
near Ayutbia, formerly the capital ot
Siam. The labyrinth is formed of a
double row of immense tree trunks set
firmly in tbe ground, the space between
them gradually narrowing.
Where it begins, at tbe edge of the
forest, the opening of the labyrinth is
more than a mile wide, but as it ap
proaches Ayutbia it becomes so nar
row tiiat the elephants cannot turn
around.
Suspecting no danger tlie wild ele
phant enters the broad opening at the
forest end. lured on by a tame elephant
The gradual narrowing of the bound
aries is not observed until the ele
phant finds himself in close quarters
Having reached the end of tlie laby
rinth. the tame elephant is allowed tc
pass through a gate, while men lying
in wait slip shackles over the feet of
the captives. The sport is a dangerous
one, for tlie enraged elephants some
times crush the hunters under theii
feet.
RENEWING PASTURE.
Don't S.-'fd on Inverted Sod — Two
Ket-icds of Ofl!;!!" n Good Stand.
In some farming operations things
cannot be hurried beyond a certain
point. One of these is in obtaining a
good pasture. You cannot seed on an
inverted sod—in other words, it is out
tf the question to expect to obtain a
good pasture by turning over a sod and
immediately reseeaifig it. Tlie sod
i must be retted and thoroughly worked
up. In a ease of this kind there are
j two courses one might pursue: (1) Flow
at once and fallow until the middle of
August, when the sod ought to be pret
ty well decayed: then seed. If this is
done and the season is fairly propi
tious, a good cover should be got by
next spring, but cattle should be kept
out until the sod lias tightened and the
soil lias settled. In the meantime it
may be necessary to cut the grass. (2i
Plow the whole of it at once and sow
part of it with a soiling crop. Keep
the remainder fallowed until seeding
time—the middle of August or first of
September. A good soiling crop would
be oats and peas. On this the cattle
could be fed while tlie remainder of tiic
ground was growing in the pasturing
condition.—J. Craig iu American Gar
dening.
THE CENTRALIZED SCHOOL.
Alphabetical Abase.
The prosecuting attorney in a law
suit had waxed especially indignant at
the defendant, whom lie characterized
as an “abandoned, baneful, cynical,
diabolic, execrable, felonious, greedy,
hateful, irresponsible, jaundiced, knav
ish. lazy, meddlesome, noxious, outra
geous and profligate rowdy.”
“The learned counsel on the other
side,” said tlie attorney for the defend
ant when he rose to reply, “should
have put his adjectives in a hat and
shaken them up a little before using.
Yon must have noticed, gentlemen of
tbe jury, that they were in regular al
phabetical order. This shows that b€
selected them from a dictionary, be
ginning with ‘a.’ He stopped at ‘p,’
but in his manner of reproducing them
he has given us the ‘cue’ as to how he
got them.” .
This turned the laugh against the
other lawyer, and he- lost the case.
How It Works In an Ohio Township,
A Five Years’ Trial.
“It was an early spring morning.
Cold, misty rain was falling, inter
spersed with snow squalls. The wind
was strong from the northwest. Under

spat for supremacy, yet in tlie midst
of it came tlie school wagonette drawn
by a span of stout horses, while inside,
protected from storm, wind and mud,
were 19 children hound school ward and
all singing ‘Comin Through the Rye.’
Two youngsters were added to Hie

OX THE WAY TO A CENTRALIZED SCHOOL.
of the town are of one community, and
merit wins. One scholar is as good as
another, aud talent and deportment
are the only avenues to merit.
“It is not here contended that the
entralized school is yet perfect. It
is in a state of evolution, but each step
seems tlie better move toward solving
the question of a better education for
the rural boy and girl. In average at
tendance tli? new plan far exceeds the
old. In some towns the attendance is
25 per cent better on the average. It
is fully that iu our township. Then it
promises to add at least two years
more schooling to tlie school life of the
pupil. To be taught along ever unfold
ing aud new lines in study inspires,
where the ever going hack to re
traverse old study byways causes list
less and lifeless ways, even to deser
tion of school life.
“The cost is less in most instances.
The transportation of a school district
to a central point is less than the cost
of its separate maintenance. In some
towns the centralized plan saves hun
dreds of dollars. In some tbe cost is
about tlie same. In a few, where
causes have been beyond the board’s
control, tlie cost is more, but in all
cases tlie instruction vastly compen
sates for slightly increased cost.”

doughy enough to handle well for scat
tering broadcast. Great care should be
taken to mix the bran and arsenic well
before adding the molasses. Then the
poison, bran and molasses should be
well kneaded into dough and lastly
moistened with water.
Arsenate of lead may be used instead
of arsenic, but in double the quantity.
The arsenate of lead should first be
thoroughly rubbed up and dissolved
in water so as to make a whitewash.
Then to this add the molasses and mix
thoroughly.
Harble Statue Gomes to Life.
At the Intei-State Fair in Atlanta
this year, opening on October 9th, one
of the most remarkable illusions of the
century will be shown. This is the
turning to life of a marble statue of a
beautiful woman.
First the statue is shown to the
audience, then in full view of the on
lookers it fades away into a huge mound
of flowers, then instantly the statue
reappears and while the gaze of every
one is concentrated on it there is grad
ually seen the coming of life. First
comes the faint flush of the fresh tint
in face, arms and : noulders, then grad
ually the statue begins to breathe and
at last turns and smiles at the audience.
This feature has puzzled thousands
everywhere it has been shown and is
expected to draw vast crowds at the
Atlanta Fair.
