A Valuable Acre. Wherever a cow or horse 1s kept there should be at least one acre of lucern If at all possible to have It. If It Is a rich acre—and It can easily be made that—it Is possible to make It furnish a good living lor a cow and horse From such an acre it Is practicable to sell during the year a ton or two of flrst-class hay and Ihe pro ceeds of thl* can be Invested In bran or cottonseed meal to feed to the milk cow From such an acre as we have In mind, abundantly supplied with plant food. It will he no difficult matter to cut during the second or third year after sowing the seed six tons of first-class hay. Of course at thl* rate It must necessarily be an "exhaustive plant" and such a yield can only he kept up by a steady application of manure The easiest plan Is to apply something every year—along In the win ter applying as much nitrogen potash and phosphorus a* three ton* of lucern hay would demand Feeding a crop thus. Just a* we would our work stock that are ex pected to work the next day.

Never before In the "memory of Ihe old est inhabitant" lias such a season of long continued drought,-ccompunt-d with In tense heat len experlenied In all Ihe Sou h Atlantic States, and never before has the value of deep preparation and shel.ow and continuous culture be. n so abundantly demonstratttk says the Prac tical Farmer Cotton, prep—ted with the one mule plow, and worked with plow and ridg'd up ha* suffered beyond ex ample. while right alongside there *are hold* on dry hills, where the land was deeply plowed and has been worked shal lowly and rapidly without hilling, the cotton I* green and flourishing. Another lesson the drought has taught, If II will be heeded Thl* Is that putting fertilisers <m poor land, barren of humus 1* mere farmers of the South would to-day te better off In most places If not an oun.-e of fertiliser had tieen applied to the crop. In most cas, ** It has done more harm than good, since Ihe dry. hot soli could not dllsoivg.lt. while on fields that have been In rotation with peas, und the soil ha* accumulated the moisture retain ing humus, ihe fertl liers have had a good effect. We hope our farmers will lay these lessons away for future thought.

Herman Pfaender, In tAgrbulturlst. Bar or Globe Artichokes. Circular 22. of Ihe Division of Botany of the I'nlled State* Department of Ag riculture says: The bur. or globe, arti choke (Oynara acolymus) Is cultivated ex tensively In the countries about the Medi terranean, where It Is native and where It thrive* In the open air. It Is grown to a less extent In gardens In Central Eu rope and England, but being sensitive to severe cold requires winter protection In all these Northern regions. It Is a veg<- table having a very delicate flavor and Is sure to become popular In thl* country on the table* of those who appreciate good things to cal. The hur artichoke Is not to be confused with the Jerusalem arti choke <He!l.inthu tuberoxosl occasionally grown In thl# country for Its tuber*,which are used as a forage for fattening hogs and other domestic animals. The bur artichoke Is a perennial, with stems three to four feel high, and large plnnutitld leaves from two to three feet long The pave* are whitish green above and cottony on the tower surface, their bases extending In wings down the stems The flower head, which is the por tion eaten. Is very large, something like that of the sunflower, but with blue flo rets In the cultivated plant the base of the flower head and ihe bases of the en veloping scales are quite fleshy. Cultivation In Europe.—The bur arti choke Is commonly propagated from sin k ers. which are produced around the crown These are pinched off or cut oft except iwo or three, which are left to produce the flower heads. The operation of detaching Ihe suckere requires care, for It Is neces sary that a portion of the mother plant should be removed with the sucker, with out cutting the old stem too deeply. The suckers, after they have been pruned, are ready for planting Artichokes may be grown from seed, but most, varieties do not reproduce hy thla method with any de gree of certainty.

I have found In my experience lint hogs go naturally with dairying, and that It pays to keep them on the dairy farm, even If for no other pttrpoee than to dla pose of Ihe aklm milk profitably.

We cannot do better In the present condition* of dairying than to find some market for t,ll the by-products of the farm, and If we succeed In doing this I am sure there will he a living, und something more found In dairying Hogs go with the dairy for several reasons There Is flrst the need of plenty of milk to raise hog* successfully, and If we had to buy thl* we would hardly figure out much profit. The swill barrel need not be the old-fash ion sour mixture that was enough to make any hogs sick, but It can he com posed of sweet skim milk that when fed with n little grain make* the very best fattening ration for hog*.
