Great ()are should be taken to avoid infecting new land. The use of scabby seed is folly rather than economy.

About June 10, it is plowed over a couple of times. and worked by means of a har- row. or other implement, till a fine Beed bed is created. This is done for three reasons: that the soil may lay close to the seed, that the plant food in the soil may be made more valuable, and that no seed will bo caught np in lumps or dote, and thus not germinate, or be pushed oat by the hoes. We sow our turnips about June 15, believing this to be the proper time to avoid the louse, which has seriously af- fected some crops in this section and practically destroyed others. There is another point, vrhioh, in my opinicu, aids the germination period of the young plants, that is, to sow after a rain. A rain storm coming:on after the Seed has been sown tends to form a crust on the finely pulverized soil, thus retarding the germination of the Need and admitting of a loss of water through evaporation.

In forty-four municipalities of On- tario the local option by-law carried in January came into effect the let of May. A list of these places is given below. In seven of them, Ailsa Craig, Asphodel, Midland, Mono, Nepean, St. Joseph and Teeswater, the by-law has been quashed on appeal to the courts. Premier Whit• ney has issued a statement, however, to the effect that the License Com- missioners in those places where the by- law has been voided on a technicality have been notified that the Ontario Government does not desire licenses to be issued, In Midland the situation was some- what peculiar. The technieedity in this case was that the local Council gave the by-law its third reading within she minimum time prescribed by the sta- tute. Oa the gnashing of the by-law they gave it a second "third" reading, and this took place after the six weeks mentioned in the Aot had expired. This is held in some quarters to be sufficient to void the whole thing, but the action of the Government of course applies to Midland. A meeting of the Commis- sioners was held April 30, and proanm- ably no licenses were granted. *Ailsa Craig, Arran, Asphodel, Brine, Chingnacouey, Cramahe, Dumfries N., Dymond, Fullerton, Gosfiold S., Goul- bourn, Gwillimbury W., Harley, •Hen- sall, Huntley, Huron, Innisfil, Jocelyn, Manvers, Marlboro, March, Mersea, "Midland, Mono, Nepean, Niesonri W., Norwich S., Onandago' *Orillia, *Port Carling, Proton, Portland, Richmond, Saugeen, Sherbrooke S., St. Joseph, Stan- ley, Tecumseh, •reeswater, Usborne, Walsingham N., 'Waterford, • Weston, *Winchester. The names asarked with an asterisk are those of incorporated Juges. We have already lightened the work of cultivation by having tee soil well pulverized before the seed is sown. As soon as the plants are large enough to hoe, we scuffle two or three times as close as possible to the row, caring little whether or not the plants are knocked over, so long as they arenot pulled, thus injuring the thread•like roots. We have found that when the seed is sown thickly, the work of thinning is not half eo tedious es when planted. Ia harvest- ing onr turnips, we top them with good sharp hoes, so as to make a clean out, removing the neck, whioh if left on, onuses trouble by decomposing in, the storeroom. Wo drag the roots out with a harrow, leaving them Tying on the ground for a day, and again harrowing them over the following day previous to hauling in. In this way the soil becom- es dry and falls off through the grate, over whioh the roots are rolled into the cellar. The floor of the cellar has an air space underneath for ventilation.

Potato Sets The best time for planting potatoes will vary is different, parts of Oenada, much depending upon .he class 01 soil and the prevalence of spring frosts. Generally speaking, the earlier potatoes are planted, the larger the orop is nice- ly to be. The sets should not, however, he long in the ground before sprouting, for here is danger of rotting, hence they should never be planted while the soil ie gold and wet; else, it they are put in too soon the young vines are li- able to be killed by spring !fosse. Ai early potatoes command good prices, it is sometimes worth while taking the reek of frost if the eon is in good con- dition, though by sproettinal the seed nu - der sunlight before planting equally good remits will be attained, If the vines should be above ground and there is danger from frost, proteotloa will be afforded by turning q shallow !arrow and alightly ooveriug them with soil GUTTING STS From time immemorial the gaestion has been asked: What are the best kind of sets to plant? Is it whole po- tatoes, one eyo,two oyes, or what? The answer must alwaya be: It depends entirely upon what is wanted. Experi- ments have proven that, all things being equal, the larger the, set planted the larger the crop will bo, bat as it is the largest orop of marketable potatoes as a minimum coat that is desired, it has not been found'profiteble to plant large whole potatoes. The more sprouts there are from a set the larger the proportion of email potatoes is likely to be It has been found that when the results from planting largo, medium and small whole potatoes were oompared, the Drop de- creased iu proportion to the size of the potato planted. Tais varied, however, with different varieties. The oonoln- sion reached after much experimenta- tion is that the most eoonomioal set to use is one with about three eyes and a good amount of flesh. Wtien eyes are wide apart a good size piece can be ob- tained with one or two of them, but sometimes eyes do not sprout and many misses occur' by using eets with only one or with too little flesh. There is one thing strongly in favor of sets with few eyes, which is that the fewer eyes there are in a set the smaller proportion of unmarketable potatoes there will be. Potato rete ahoald be planted and covered as soon, after they are out as possible, the difference in yield between fresh out sets and those kept exposed for only five or six days being considerable. If for any reason the seta cannot be pianteal when fresh, they ahoald be ooat- ed with land plaster, whioh will retard evaporation and usenet in sustaining Vi- tality -Farming World. Every individnal who lives to grow np has in all probability asked, at some time in his life, what becomes of all the Pins that are manufactured and 'oat. An old gentleman in London has pre- pared himself to answer the question. By a series of experiments conducted in his back garden, he has discovered that they go the way of all flesh, and are re- solved into dust. ,11 Hairpins, which he watched for one h`andred and fifty-four days, disappeared at the end of•that time, having been resolved into a ferrous oxide, a brownish rust, which wan blown away by the wind as it formed; bright pine took nearly eighteen months to dis- appear; polished steel needles, nearly two years and a half; braes pine had but little endurance; steel pens at the end of fifteen months had nearly gone, while their wooden holders were intact. Pencils, with whioh he also experiment- ed, suffered little by exposure; the lead was unharmed, and the cedar almost as good as new; but then no body has ever asked the question about pencile, and he might have spared himself hie pains. Every time the closet of your neigh- bor is opened a little do you strain your neck to peek, and then afterwards strain yonr tongne in talking about it? Do you stop to think that some day a trate• dy may take up its abode in yonr home?

Two newspaper clippings from a clip- ping bureau, by a peculiar coincidence, cite cases whore merchants have made statements as to the coat of their adver- tising. One says his advertising ex- penses for a year past have been 62 cents for each $100. To those accustomed to the idea that from 2 to 3 per cent. is a fair allowance, the figures gnoted seen incredible. Less than two-thirds of one per cent. expended in advertieing, and bringing satisfactory results, is certainly remarkable, and one wonders how muoh more business these merchants would have done had their allowance for ad. vertising been nearer the ordinary pro. portions. Nos all merchants keep an accurate account of the sum total of their bnai• nese from year to year, but any man who is fit to be called a business man certainly has et lomat an approximate idea of the gross amount of trade pass- ing through his doors. Eery mer- ohant should deoide about how much money he can appropriate for advertis- ing purposes, allowing from one to three per cent. on hie total budinoss.

QJ KEPT IN AN UNCLEAN DAIRY. cows had been upon pasture for some weeks. They would naturally be clean- er than when the tests, were made in March. because that date represented the end of the winter season. The spring rains and living upon the clean pasture produced a more sanitary con- dition than sleeping on filthy bedding In dark barns. The clean cow tested. on Aug. 15, 000 bacteria per cubic centimeter, and the other one tested ' 1,000,000 on July 29. One way to ac- count for this great variation is the difference in stables and surroundings at milking time, says Kimball's Dairy Partner. Most of the bacteria get Into the milk after it leaves the cow's ud- der. Ventilation of Stables. Every good cow stable should have about S00 cubic feet of air space per sow. That sounds like a blg space - 800 cubic feet per cow. It is not, how- ever, too much space. You should not have your cows all dumped up in a. beep. And I would not advise you to - have the ale space all above the cattle. Have it all around them -that is, have good wide passages and give the COWAN, lots of room in their stalls. Do not crowd them down to two and one-half feet, but give them three, or, better still, three and one-half feet. I speak from experience when I say that that kind is a profitable stable. I have seen both kinds tried. Where the ven- tilation was practically equal and where a much larger space was given the cows they were In very much bet- ter health. I have in mind two farms. In one I should judge the .air space is about 700 feet, not quite up to the standard, and in the other I should judge there is about S00 feet of air space, a long way below. In one tike cows are continually getting sick, and the milk is not up to the standard of quality or quantity. In the other stable there is never any complaint about the health of the animals or the quantity or quality of the milk. Thle Is a result of having sufficient air space. -J, EL Grisdalo in Eimbalra Dairy Farmer. Going It Blind. Why are dairymen so willing to go it blind? I heard a man say the, other day he did not Intend to take time top test any cow itt his herd until he had a hundred ,registered cows in milking Ile said he had no time to run the Bab- cock, though be had a fine steam one connected with the boiler. I thought how much money he could save by weeding as he gtowa the herd. The undesirable sire eould he spotted at °nee when his heifers came in and dis- carded, while the valuable one, the one that nicked kindly with his strain of cattle, Could be used more freely. Numbers in a herd amount to little. 71 had at one time twelve cows at the - heed of the herd that made in a year 6,132 pounds of butter, while at the foot of the herd it took over nineteen to equal then* in prodtrctiotl. Thee( Met nineteen made an average of '.103 pounds ot butter in ft year, Or they were not so awfully poor, after nil,--- Ittrs. 1t, It. Sherman in California Cul- tivator.
