Un :i certain occasion Professor Brander Matthews of Columbia university, speaking jokingly of his age, Bald he trusted that he was not so old that the students could play on him the trick he once saw tried on a senior professor in his own college days. "Professor Blank," he said, "was our most venerable instructor, and he could be Just a little irritable at times. Once, noticing that a member of his class who sat right under his eye nev.cr took any notes or paid the slightest attention to his lectures, he stopped abruptly and demanded : " 'See here, young man, what do you mean by coming Into my classroom Jay after day and never taking notes?' " 'I have my father's,' was the student's complacent reply." Youth's Companion. Knew Father's Weakness. Johnny B , who has seen eight summers go by, not very long ago developed a fondness for playing "hookey" from school. After two or three oR'enses of this kind he was taken to task by his teacher. "Johnny," she said, "iho next time you iire absent I waut'ou to bring me .an excuse from your father telling me why you were not here." "I don't want to bring any excuse tfrom father," protested the boy. "Why not?" asked the teacher, her suspicion plain. "'Cause father isn't any good at making excuses.

RAT-PROOF BUILDINGS

Plan Given for Construction of Crib and Granary. Metal Strips Prevent Rodents From Climbing Higher Than Lath Leave No Openings Around Doors Large Enough for Mice. The accompanying sketch shows one method of construction for a ratproof crib and granary which Is to be separate and apart from other buildings. The wire cloth or metal lath should have no meshes wider than one-fourth to three-eighths inch. Either slats or boards may be nailed outside the lath. The metal strip prevents the rodents from climbing higher than the metal lath. Care must be taken to see that no openings are left around the doors large enough to admit mice, writes F. W. Ives in Ohio Farmer. If a one-story structure is desired, a building 18 feet square and 10 feet high to the plate will hold 500 bushCnjf Sjfj Smooth fobf $frip iSill f Ontc. If - V, Rodent-Proof Granary. els of ear corn and 500 bushels of small grain. A crib on one side of a 4-foot central alley will be 8 feet wide and 18 feet long, while on the other side of the alley the grain bin would be G feet wide and 18 feet long. The grain bin might be subdivided into smaller bins. The studs may be set in patent sockets in the concrete floor instead of spiked to a sill bolted to the foundation. The concrete floor should be five Inches in thickness. A tile drain placed around the foundation will Insure against dampness. CALF AFTER SKIM MILK AGE Animal Should Be Kept Gaining From Birth to Maturity Give Heifers Some Grain. The problem of caring for the dairy calf Is by no means solved by the end of the mild-feeding period. The animal should be kept gaining constantly from birth to maturity if good growth Is to be expected. Calves are frequently well cared for up to four or five months of age and then given little attention. If good growth Is to be secured, heifers under a year of age require grain In addition to hay or pasture. Since the condition of the heifer at pasture is not so closely observed as when in the stall, the heifer beyond the milk-feeding period is more likely to be neglected during the summer when on pasture than during the winter months. TIME FOR CUTTING ALFALFA When Plants Turn Yellow It Should Be Cut Immediately Soil May Be in Need of Lime. When for any reason alfalfa turns yellow it should be cut Immediately and removed from the field. A careful examination at such a time may indicate a lack of effective inoculation, disease, or the need of lime. Yellowing sometimes occurs, however, when all of these conditions are apparently favorable to the growth of the alfalfa. AIM FOR HIGHER STANDARDS Achievements of Today to Become More Frequent and Production Will Be Raised. Iu the future there will be higher standards of farming, whether it be a fruit farm or other branches of agriculture. The achievements that today read like the fairy tales of our childhood will become more and more frequent until the whole average of farming production will be raised. FERTILIZER FOR GARDEN USE Should Contain Three Chief Ingredients, Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and Potash. For general garden crops a fertilizer should contain the three chief ingredients in the following per cents : Nitrogen, four; phosphoric acid, eight; and potash, ten. If for bulbs the potash content should be at least doubled. CANVAS COVER FOR ALFALFA With High Price of Hay and Frequent Showers Protection Affords Big Dividend. This has been a year when the canvas covers for alfalfa have paid a dividend, with the high price of hay and the frequent showers. Stack covers will pay as well, as no one can afford to have any loss in quality of his hay.

SPREAD BEAN RUST ON VINES

Wisconsin Plant Disease Specialist of Wisconsin College Gives Some Timely Advice. "Farmers who understand conditions In the spread of bean rust or anthracnos?, as it is termed, never cultivate or walk through the field while the vines are wet with rain or dew." This is the information given by R. E. Vaughan, plant disease specialist at the College of Agriculture, University of Wisconsin. When the bean plants are dry there Is less danger of brushing off the tiny spores which spread the disease. The bean anthracnose, In common with one or two other spot diseases of garden beans, Is most successfully controlled by careful selection of healthy seed. Owing to the greatly increased acreage of beans in Wisconsin this year it Is highly important that growers become familiar with conditions which affect the crop. Spraying is of little value in controlling the disease under field conditions. KEEPING HOME GARDEN BUSY By Using Intensive Methods and Successive Planting Maxim Amount of Food Secured, As soon as one crops has been harvested in the garden the ground should be prepared and another one planted. The early crops are removed in time for late ones and by practicing successive planting a supply of fresh vegetables can be had all summer and into the late fall. Sweet corn, string beans, beets, turnips, tomatoes, squash, pumpkins, late cabbage, cucumbers, winter onions, fall lettuce, radishes, spinach, are some of the crops that can be planted after the early things are out of the way. Sometimes It Is practicable to start corn or beans between the radish and lettuce rows and by time the latter crops are used up the former will have made a good start. By following Intensive methods and successive planting the garden can be kept busy all season and be made to produce the maximum amount of food material. TO CLEAN SEPARATOR BOWLS Handy Washing Machine Will Perform Operation in Short Order Simpler Than Brush.

Farming Business. BLAME MOLES FOR INJURIES Real Miscreants Are Small Animals , That Follow in Runwayr Skins Are Valuable. Although complaints of damage done by moles are frequently heard, the real damage Is often done by small animals that follow the moles' runways and damage corn and other seeds. The mole itself lives very largely on earth worms, white grubs, beetles, spiders and other insects. They very rarely eat seeds. In recent years, this little rodent has assumed a commercial importance as a fur bearer, and there are now more than 3.000,000 mole skins sold annually at the great London fur sale. CAUSES OF MANY ACCIDENTS Horse Liable to Hip Fracture by Hitting Doorpost on Being Released From Shafts. Narrow driveways ' are responsible for such accidents as fracture of the hip. which may also be caused by a horse running against a doorpost when allowed to rush out of the shafts of a vehicle immediately he finds himself unharnessed. In the case of. twowheel rigs, after all the buckles and straps are free, it is better to push the vehicle from the horse, than let the horse walk out of the shafts. APPLICATION OF LIME HELPS Inherent Fertility of Soils Gradually Becomes Available Only as It Disintegrates. Some soils have an Inherent fertility that gradually becomes available only as it becomes disintegrated. This pulverization usually is accomplished through constant and thorough working, but in many cases an application of lime wouid hasten such action.

What Ailed Smith. A plainly dressed man, who Introduced himself as Mr. John Smith, walked into a doctor's office In a Texas town, and, having explained his symptoms, asked the doctor how Jong It would take to cure him. The doctor, who had treated the visitor with every possible courtesy, replied: "You will require careful treatment under my personal supervision for about two months before you are able to resume your labors In the bank." "Doctor, you are fooling yourself. I am not Smith the banker, but Smith, the street car driver." "Is that so? Well, my good fellow, I don't see what you came to see me for."
