Wooden Mows Used in America 1:10 Years Ago. The people of all countries went through the early experience of find- ing a ways and means of tilling Lite soil, some slowly, some rapidly; ,and. ouriously enough the first plow of all nations were much the same in spite of the fact that some nations started thirty or forty centuries ahead of. the others, The wooden plow is o1,ly a century and a half remote in Ameri- can agr;eoltiere. It ra curious to trace the pa:glees of plowmaking in ' Britatu, where Omsar introduced the plow about 56 S.D. Those of the early cultiva- tors' were of ueeessity rude awl Im perfect, for iu those days the plow- manman was obliged by late to Mahe a , W plow before he was t, rul,.t 1 us,. one.

Introduction of the Subsoil flow. The drat attempt at the Qua:exec- tibia of a subsoil plow was made In .1677. It loosened the land up to a ; depth of fourteei inches: It 10 not necessary to do more loan point 10 the various and numerous relevances whiell are found In early history of ' this valuable implement. Fur ages the plow was little more than a clumsy instrument which served uuly to tear up the surface of the land suffietently deep to'`the seeds to be burled, it was nut bruegltt to auy- ' thing liko a perilet tillage tool until • the close of the sevenieta,th century.. The Dutch were amen:eat. the first who brought the mew a ale into shape, and soon its heat teat , e0 were copied and included la t1,s: Ltitisdter s idea of a plow.

British Plows the Climax 10 Develop- ment. The itotheruam plow, Small's chain plow, and Small's Scott;. plow represented the climax in ploy, de- velopment previous to 180U, and the men whose ingenuity, spirit, and per- serverance brought about the devel- opment in plow malting were Fel- jambe, Small, Wilkie, Finlayson and Ransome, The work cud develop- ment of the plow during the past 125. years is too well known to all to.. warrant. its mention here. The old plowmen simply scratched the soil with their crude implements, going over the field time and time again, croasing'aud re -crossing until they had worked up a fewtuches into a seed bed. The Roman farms were rarely over aye acres in extent, and when our forefathers in this' country lined the old wooden plow, the clear- inga, among the stumps were small. The two century gap between the old rooter that scratched the soil surface and the new multiple bottom tractor plow of to -day is a long stretch foe the numerous plow milestones that stand by the way to mark the pro- gress of Agr•feulture.—L. Stevenson, 0. A. C., Guelph. Fall plowing is best from the standpoint of saving time, as It leaves more time for spring work and us- ually means earlier seeding. Spring blowing is more effective in the Con- trol of weeds, as, being turned under just before seeding, they have letli# ohance to crowd the grain, The best time to inspect a machine I.`or its weak parts 1e when you are putting, it away for the season.

Dr. Schroeder closed his paper with: this significant statement, "Tubercle bacilli have been proved at the station to remain alive and -viru- lent in a manure pile, some distance below its surface, for a period up- wards of six months,' but they will not stay alive, in stables or else- where, unless they are protected by opaque masses of some 'kind against the notion of the light." )il i0 the treatment of 10)2103' ailments 00021ld not be without it hi the house.
