not decay for tack of air. Bog oak is
dug from tate swamps in Ireland, where
it has lain for centuries, and then made
into furniture.
Various methods are suggested for
prolonging the life of fenceposts. Pit-
ing stones, ashes or gravel. about tbe
base will help, and so will setting the
post in cement or concrete. It also
pays to char the ends of the posts over
an open fire, but the charred part
should extend at least six inches above
the ground. Creosote is a good mate-
rial for preventing decay. A tank like
the one shown in the picture given
above can be used for this purpose.
The arm of metal pipe is put over a
fire, 'which causes the circulation and
raises the temperature of the creosote.
When treating, creosote is put into the
tank, the fire is built under the arm
and the temperature raised just above
the boiling point. There ought to be
enough of the creosote to cover the
lower forty inches of the post. The
posts are well seasoned with the bark
peeled off. Then they are put down
into the tank and kept there about two
hours, after which they are ready to
set.
This treatment will greatly lengthen
the life of a post, and with creosote at
15 to 20 cents a gallon the cost will be
0 to 8 cents for a post and will practi-
cally double its life.

ALFALFA "MUSTS."

Things to Observe if Grower Wants to
Raise the E3est Possible Crop.
These "musts" for the alfalfa grower
were prepared by Professor W. I1. Olin
at the head of the extension depart-
ment of the University of Idaho:
First. --Use only clean. vital, well ac-
climated seed.
Second.—Use, for alfalfa, land which
iris previously been well cultivated and
which has good tinder drainage. Thor.
ongh drainage is chief among the re-
quirements for this plant.
Third. -Preparation of seed bed must

plowed in tile fall for spring seeding
and ou spring plowed ground for fall
seeding. No field crop pays richer
revenues for thorough preparation
than alfalfa.
Fourth. --Bove your seed bed first
well pulverized, then firm, next moist
surface soil, devoid of hard lumps and
well planked or leveled.
Fifth.—Sow on irrigated land with a
drill evenly and at that rate of seed•
ing which will give you a good stand.
provided seed and bed are what they
should be. follow drill with a smooth-
ing harrow as soon as possible, cross
harrowing the field.
Sixth.—Prevent crusting of surface
soil at period of germination and early
stage of growth.
Seventh. --Use common sense and
good Judgment at all tinges.
Eighth. --An alfalfa renovator is an
indispensable tool for cultivating al-
falfa in the field.

Birds and Bermes.
There are various ways of prote(yttng
berries from birds. On sterno palettes
fish net or any coarse netting is a
good protection. Mosquito netting Is
not so desirable, as file fruit often does
not mature so well tinder its close
mesh. A favorite method in England
Is to stretch black thread back and
forth above the berries. it is said that
the birds are afraid of this. --I arta.

rect. Cheap thermometers are often
quite inaccurate.
Temperature Must Bo Studied.
No dt!fiuite temperature for churning
can be given. That is ascertained only
by studying varying couditions and
noting the temperature and time of
previous churnings.
Aim to make conditions under your
control favorable to a low churning
temperature. It insures better butter
and a more exhaustive churubsg.

Salt a Matter of Taste.
Salt in butter is a personal taste, and
the amount to use should be deter-
mined by the consumer rather than
by the producer. Use nothing but the
best dairy salt. Buy it iu quantities
and keep it in a clean, dry place. It

salted on the worker three-quarters of
an ounce per pound of butter is usually
su°icient. If you salt it in the churn
use an ounce. as not so much is incor-
porated into the butter. For the high
class trade this would be too heavy
salting. This trade calls for three
things—light color, delicate flavor, little
salt. I strongly recommend salting to
the churn. I [ave the butter evenly
spread over the bottom of the churn.
Sift on part of the salt. Tilt the churn
forwr.►'d to cause the butter to lap
over, sift on more salt, then tilt tbe
churn backward and put ,on the re-
mainder of the salt. For a large
cburn a strong, large wooden fort; Is
convenient to mix the salt in and also
to take the butter from the churn.
After salting put on the lid and very
slowly revolve the churn until the but-
ter forms in several lumps. 1f too firm
it will be slow at gathering and the
lumps will be small. If too soft It will
quickly gather into one large lump.
The butter may now be taken out and
immediately worked, but it is melt
better for it to stand for an hour of
two in the covered churn to allow the
salt time to dissolve, then give it one
good working. Do not allow it to be
conte too hard or too soft.
1r salting on the worker terve the
butter from the churn, weigh It and
allow three-quarters of an ounce of
salt per pound of butter. Spread the
butter evenly over tbe wide end of tbe
