Kr r.unately in most places where lark of precipitation prevented harvesting a rood crop this year, thla is the first of a number of years that it has happened, and the farmers are In a jK.-ition to withstand a partial failure Throughout all of Manitoba, t'entral Saskatchewan and the largest portion of Alberta conditions are good. The raisinc of cattle, sheep and hogs is now playing an important part in the success of the Western Canada Farmer FYom these, and the product of the dairy and the creaminr. he is placing, himself in an excellent financial position. It Is expected that duriue the u reage sown to grains of all kinds will be largely in excess of all previous years. In the districts that had not the crop that others had, there is no disheartedr.i bbs, but embracing the opportunity to get their land ready In good time, and pursuing more definite methods

If the Cabbages Are Slow About Heading or the Heads Lack Firmness. Sprinkle With Salt and Water.

If the Karden lla ! n thoroughly cultivat-d eariy in the season, there is little weeding to be done Yet, a few autumn weeds will strive for supremacy unless conquered One of the most persistent now as earlier, is the chickweed. which grows in such dense masses as to choke out everything else. k p It cleaned out If thrown Into a pile it will be decomposed In a lea weeks into a light noil, rich in humus If an early frost catches the beans b' fore they are r e ripe, shell, scald, and dry. and tbyy will keep during the winter. An old blanket, papers or straw aad In protecting the tomatoes from the first frost may prolong them through weeks of good weather et to folios. If the cabbages are slow about head ing. or the heads lack firmness sprinkle with salt and water This will also tend to keep the worms down If a few enr-umbers get too large for onlinary use before you discover them pare, slice in cross sections an Inch thick, soak in salt water s few hours, and make Into sweet pickles. They are delicious. A few rows of strawberries along the edge of the garden will not require much extra labor, and they will add greatly to the luxuries of farm life One man who tried the experiment of seven rows last year, reporta seven bushels of berries this season. Hecause you have plenty of land do not think it is of no value Have yon ued your garden to the utmost capacity Intensiv gardening has alreadv come where there is most profit In the occupation If you have not applied this principle. Bee how you can get more cut of the ground next year Dandelions are coming into reneral nse in America for salad greens. The flavor is greatly Improved by blanch DEPTH OF THE TILE DRAINS Type of Soil and Fall of Land Must Be Tawen Into Cons. deration Before Starting WorV. By It G WKATHKR8TOM. Tn putting In a system of tile drainage e must consider the tpe of the soil to be drained as well as the fall of the land before we decide upon the site of the tile and the depth it is to be pla ed On a coarse soil, where the object of the drainage system is to remove the soil water from around the roots of the plants the tile should be laid three or four feet deep, but on a clay soll. I believe that the Ml should be laid as shallow as Is consistent with the climatic condit-ons and the fall of the land On clay soils the chief object of tfle drainage to remove the surface water a rapidly as possible after heavy rains before it ruins the growing crops To do this it must have an easy access to the tile and for this reason thev should not b put down more than two or two and a half feet deep On a clay soil It require Innrer for the tile drainage !ystem to become efficient after It is Instal'ed. because It takes lonrer for the watercourses to form through the cracks, decayed root pafsaa-es and animal burrows, hence we will secure better Imme dlat rosiilts from a shallow system of drainage than when the tile are placed deep It has required a number of years for some of the systems of drainage to become efficient In clay soils and few farmers can afford to wait a number of years for results. On one of our farms the tile drains were inst.ill-d 20 years ago and are doinr far better work today than they did th' trSl ten years they were put in. These drains were put In from three to four feet deep and for the first few years they did very poor ssrvice Understand the Silo. Before any man builds a silo or Sses one that om one else has built he should secure the numerous bulletins available and read up Silos are simple enough, but they must be Understood Have Vssellss Handy. Keep a can of vaseline handy about the milking plsce. Dip the fingers in this and thus soften the teats sad orevent cracking.

ing the leaves To do this, place an

11. v. rted flower pot over each plant for awhile before UM 1 ave are gathered Tbis alad is greatly enjoyed in Europe Before applying liquid manure to plants the soil should be moistened by , watering with clear water, unless the soil is already moist. Apply the liquid manure to the soil without sprinkling it over the plants Where manure is available, a spadeful or more tied up in coarse sacking. ' suspended in a tub of water affords a good way to make the liquid. After strawberry plants have borne the second season s crop remov e them and plant some other crop on this , land Set out a new bed of strawber- j ries from the runners from the old vinea on another new piece of ground. Holland bulbs now are exported all over the world and if the demand con- . tinues to increase either prices will likely advance or new territorj will have to be found to propagate them Viola cornuta purpurea somewhat resembles the single blue violet, producing flowers freely on long, slender stems, making them desirable for cutting The culture is the same as that given panAutumn bulb planting will soon be here: make au early selection of tho ones you want, thus securing the beat specimens Planting is not to be dona until the late frosts, when the beds now in use will be unoccupied and read) for the bulbs Beds planted tbis autumn will begin flowering almost before the snow disappears In the spring This is a good time to thoroughly clean the greenhouse, to put in new glass where needed, reputty and paint the roof, and look out for leaks Plant sweet peas In the open ground next November and thus secure an early crop of flowers next year ACCIDENTS MAY BE AVOIDED Tnree Simple Rules to Observe in UsIng Silo Filling Machinery for the First Time. By observing three simple rules, the farmer who is using silo filling; machinery for the first time may avoid some of the accidents which occasionally damage new machines beyond repair. Here are the things that, according to W E Markey, Wisconsin university agricultural experiment station, the inexperienced man should do: 1. Re sure that the machine is baler run at the proper speed. 2. Take care that corn is never put Into the machine until the motion la np to full speed. 3. In stopping be careful not to shut off the power until the elevator la empty. If the elevator Is not empty the rut material will fall back and lodge In the fans. Then when the machine Is started again, the cut corn Jams the fans and as a result they are bent or broken INOCULATE ALFALFA FIELDS Soil May Be Taken From Field to Depth of Four to Six InchesAvoid Exposing to Light. Alfalfa fields may be inoculated with soil taken to a depth of from four to six Inches from an alfalfa or sweet clover field where the plants are known to be inoculated, at tha rate of about two hundred pounds per acre It Is well to avoid expos ins the soil to the sunlight for any considerable length of time Part of this soli may be sifted and from ten to twenty pounds mixed thoroughly with the seed for each sere. The se. d should be slightly moistened before mixing and the mixture shoveled over frequently until dry enough to sow The fine soil particle and the bacteria cling to the seeds and are ready to begin work as soon as the plants start growth. The remaining soil may be scattered broadcast at seeding time and harrowed In Immediately. Corn Crop In the 8tlo. The feed cutter should be in use cm every farm, the corn shredder is an escellent thing, but why not put all of the corn crop In a silo as the beat probable position to gat every pound of value out of It.

The trouble first began as a rash which itched so at night someone always held bis hands, even while sleeping, as at the least scratching it would run together and form scabs. His night-clothes had to have mittens on them or the stabs would be raw and bleeding by morning. His clothing or the least friction Irritated the trouble. His face and scalp were covered. Tbey called it eczema. "We tried different treatments but none cured him. At three years old we commenced the use of Cutlcura Soap and Ointment.
