No inteliig it farmer cf today thinks

twenty years. Anything will do for

shown little or no improvement.
There are several reasons for this.
The chief one is that the farmer can
save his own seed and hence is satis
fied with what he raises himself. If
he had to buy his seed every year, he
would be more particular to buy im
proved kinds, just as he does with his
vegetables.
Another reason is that he often does
not know that he can grade up seed
just as a stockman can grade up his
horses and cattle.
Another reason with many farmers
is, that they are lazy. Many of them
i do not take an agricultural paper,
; many do not read what they take, and
hence will not try to find out how to
; improve their farms and farming, and
i even if they knew how, they are not
i willing to spend the little time and care
| required for the work.
| The principle of plant breeding is
| well recognized by all scientists, and
> lias been proved in thousands of cases.
| We can certainly improve our corn,
! cotton, wheat, etc. It is being done
! here and there by specialists, and they
I are reaping rich rewards. It is better
I for each man and each community to
j improve its own seed, as it will be
i better adapted to that locality than if
| raised in Georgia, Indiana or some
• other state. And it pays, too, directly
! to the man who improves his seed.
! If a man improves his wheat so it
! will produce thirty bushels per acre
j while the common produces only fif-
| teen, he can sell every bushel to his
neighbors at double the market price.
This is often done.
If a man improves his cotton so it
will produce two bales to the acre,
while the common produces only one,
he can sell his seed at $1 per bushel
If !ie early chickens are to lay before
cokl weather sets in. they should be
well cared for at this season. Give
them plenty of food, plenty of room
and good air Sell off the old hens be
fore they begin to molt.

Growing a variety of crops lengthens
out the irrigating season and enables
the farmer to make better use of his

j Hoyt to Use It to Best Advantage
Cntting and Shocking.
I An unusually large amount of corn
will be cut this fall. The shortage of
pasture made it necessary for many
farmers to begin feeding in July. This
long season will require an immense
amount of forage, and as corn will be
exceedingly scarce farmers will depend
more than usual upon the fodder crop
to carry their animals through. As a
general rule, green fodder, particularly
this year, is more valuable fed directly
after cutting than at any other time
if it is sufficiently mature to make good
forage. In view of all this The Amer
ican Agriculturist advises as follows:
The wise farmer therefore will utilize
his corn crop to the best advantage. If
he has stock that can be fattened on
the whole corn plant before frost or at
any rate partly fattened before that
time, be will cut his corn now and feed
it at once. If he can get his cattle or
sheep to market before frost comes,
they will be more profitable than if he
simply keeps them in good flesh, cuts
and cures his corn and attempts to fat
ten -them this winter when they are a
little older.
Where corn is intended for fodder it
should be allowed to mature fairly well
before cutting is started. However, if
a great deal is to be taken care of be
gin cutting wbc-n it is still on the
green otter. Cut about one-half a
shock, allow to cure a day or two, then
cut the remainder. This will result in
a fodder highly digestible, although not
quite so heavy as it would have been
had it remained uncut a week or so
longer. If possible, the cutting should
be delayed until the lower blades have
died and the kernels are well dented.
In other words, it should be well ad
vanced in the dough stage.
The size of the shock will of course
depend upon the character of the corn
and somewhat upon the practice in the
locality. In the central west shocks
sixteen hills square seem to be favor
ites, but farther east smaller shocks,
ranging all the way from eight to
twelve hills square, are most common.
This year the corn is short and can
be handled very easily with a corn
binder.
Root Storage.
Where there is no barn cellar for the
storing of roots a place such as is
shown in the cut from The Farm Jour
nal can be extemporized by double
boarding a boxlike space at the side of
the barn floor in the hay bay. This
Brief Mention.
Have you a bulletin board with
whatever you have for sale posted up?
That’s a good way to find buyers.
A big cotton crop means a scarcity
of feed crops, poor cattle and horses, a
heavy outlay for bacon and other
things that ought to be made at home,
short rations of butter and milk and
many additional things and, worst of
all, a low price for cotton, says Farm
and Ranch.
Georgia is said to have planted 2,000,-
000 fruit trees the past spring.
There can be no mistake in planting
plenty of fall potatoes.
Turnips, beets, beans, butter beans,
Irish potatoes and cabbage are some of
the best paying crops for the fall gar
den.-
The weeds, briers and bushes cut
from fence corners and out of the way
places had better be burned.
It is not an uncommon sight in the
country round St. Louis to see melon

that are usually wasted by the average
