Consequently she was Indignant the other niht when at Klipper her father transferred this privilege to n clergyman who was a dinner Kiiest. Isabel had already clasped her hands and was bowlns her head preparatory to starting the prayer when her father took the fatal step: "Mr. Findorkln," he said, "will yon say the blessing?" Isabel shot a baleful look at the guest, but n warning expression of her mother's face silenced the protest. Apparently submitting, Isabel bowed her bond and her lips moved, sw'.ftly as Mr. Finderkin murmured the blessing. The prayer completed. Isabel lifted her head beaming triumphantly.

T PULLER I; LATE INVENTION Machine Designed by Californian for Doing This Hard and Expensive Task. IIIJURY AVOIDED. BY VHEELS As Beet Is Pulled From Ground Knives on Each Side Cut Off Tops of Leaves Easy to Harvest Profitable Crop. Pulling sugar beets is one of the big Jobs which confront the grower of this very profitable crop. It Is a lot of work, and work that takes time and energy at least, and often costs money as well. A man In the beet Heids of California has designed a machine which he thinks Is a wonder for doing this hard and expensive task. Instead of using Inclined rods, on the principle of the gathering points of a corn filmier, for pulling the beets, this man uses padded wheels for this purpose. Cross Sectional View. The upright V-shaped portion of the accompanying Illustration Is a cross sectional view through the padded wheel pullers. The axles of these wheeled pullers extend down to the Inner hubs of the main driving wheels of the machine, and are here driven or revolved by these, main wheels. Orouters or diggers go along ahead of the pulling wheels, on each side of the row of beets, and loosen the ground around them so that they will be easier to pull when the pulling wheels of the machine engage them. From tho drawing it will be noticed that the pulling wheels are set so the lower portions are much closer together than are the upper portions. As the machine passes forward over the beets In a row, these pulling Beet Topper and Puller. wheels are rotated backward and upward, and In so rotating they lift beets out of the ground. Cuts Off Leaves. So located between the pulling wheels that they pass, just over the top of-the beet are two knives, one on each side. Thus, as the machine Is drawn forward and the beet Is lifted up, these knives cut off the top or leaves of the beet; thus it Is pulled and topped at one and the same time by the one machine, these being two separate operations in the ordinary hand method of harvesting beets. FIGURING CAPACITY OF SILO In Estimating Diameter and Height Allow Each Cow Four to Five Square Feet of Surface. If your cows are fed 40 pounds silage daily for six months they will need nearly .7,500 pounds or fi silo capacity of four tons each. In estimating diameter and height, allow eacli cow four to live square feet of feeding surface in the silo. Ten cows would require a feeding surface of "0 feet. A silo eight feet in diameter would have a cross section or feeding surface ol 50 square feet. For ten cows therefore, a silo should be eight feet In diameter. Fifteen cows should have a silo 10 feet in diameter (if 20 feet higl !t has a capacity of 2G tons and if ,,2 feet hig'n, 51 tons) ; 20 cows should have a silo 12 feet in diameter. Forty cows will need a silo 10 or IS feet In diameter and about SO feet high. TREATMENT OF ARMY WORMS Pests Can Be Kspt Out of Field by Plowing Up a Furrow in Front cf Them. After army worms once get into a field there is nothing practical which can be done to ilop them. They can he kept out of a field, however, hy plowing a deep furrow in front of them. Plow a furrow about eight inches deep anil square up one side of the furrow with a spado. Every ten or fifteen feet in the furrow dig a shallow posthole. As fast as the army worms accumulate In the furrow, and especially in the postholes, sprinkle them with kerosene. Army worms move fast r.nd it is necessary to apply this treatment promptly or they will have moved into the threatened field and there is nothing whatever which can be d.-ne. If the trench treatment is applied promptly it proves very satisfactorv. GRAIN F0JR EWES AND LAMBS Unless Animals Are Oeing .Conditioned for Market Pasture and Forage Are Sufficient. If the ewes and lambs have good pasture and forage crops it will seidotn pay to fen! any grain feed, unless the lambs are I eing conditioned for the summer raarlret. Pumpkins planted in the corn field Make an Ideal Supplement for the fall pastures.

HOME-MADE FLOAT OR CLOD CRUSHER HANDY

Device Does Satisfactory Work on Very Lumpy Soil. Illustration Gives Good Idea of Con. struction of Implement Which Can Be Put Together at Small Cost It Kifls Weeds. It sometimes happens that land get3 very lumpy or full of clods and, to get the best results, these clods should be mashed or ground up. To do this a home-made clod crusher "will be found to do the work In a most satisfactory manner. The accompanying drawing shows how such a crusher can be made at home with but slight expense. It is made by taking two two by eight Float or Clod Crusher. pieces eight feet long and spiking two by six pieces on the ends and also on top. To save a little expense a sled tongue can be used, and will answer just as well as to make one. A four by four piece Is placed between the tloats and Is held In place by lag screws in each end. This piece should have teeth Inserted into Its lower side which are made from five-sixteenths-inch round iron, and should stick out about two and oik? half Inches.- Holes should be bored Into the four by four, slightly smaller than the iron, and should slant backward. A lever can be bolted to this piece, which by moving front or back will press tho teeth more or less into the soil. There could be a seat put onto it, but it is better to stand up, as by so doing, if any rubbish gets under It, a step forward will raise the hind end and let the obstruction out, says a writer in The Farmer. This machine Is also a fine thing to go over a corn field just before the corn comes up and will kill more woods than a drag. IMPORTANCE OF MALE BIRDS Exert Much Influence in Producing Qualities of Offspring Two Classes of Hens. Doctor Pearl, formerly of the Maine experiment station, makes mention of the fact that among the high producing hen? there are two classes, one class having the ability . to transmit their high laying qualities to their daughters and the other class being poor breeders. It simply amounts to the selection hy means of the trap nest of the high layers. These in turn are mated to sons of high layers and the progeny of the mating is again tested as to egg production. It is agreed by the most careful observers that the male bird exerts a very important Influence in the producing qualities of the offspring, and that a good hen mated to a poor male would likely give very Indifferent results. DAY FOR DIGGING POTATOES Quality Is Influenced to Considerable Extent by Manner in Which They Are Dug. The table quality of potatoes is Influenced to n considerable extent by the way they are dug and stored. Potatoes should be dug If possible, on a clear day, when the soil is not wet enough to cling to them, advises the college. They should be left in the field only long enough to become dry, then stored In a place which is cool and rather moist, and as dark as possible. Under ordinary home storage conditions, becMise of the danger of decay, it is not wise to have the potatoes more than two and one-half or three feet deep, either in a pile or In a box, says an agricultural college potato man. FLOOR OF PORTABLE HOUSES It Should Be at Least One Foot From Ground, Open and Free Cement Baffles Rats. Floors of portable poultry colony houses should be at least one foot 'from the ground, and the space underneath should be open and free. Permanent brooder houses should have cement tloors. and the doors and windows should be screened with one-Incl mesh wire fencing. If such precau tions are taken, rats and weasels usuallv do little damage. SALT PREVENTS INDIGESTION Used by Experienced Shepherds in Changing Sheep From Old Pasture to New. Many experienced shepherds mix salt with air-laked lime, a little more lime than salt to prevent indigestion and bloat when the sheep are changed to new pastures. On some farms to baceo stems are dipped In a strong salt brine and no additional salt i given to the sheep. This helps to con trol parasitic infection a;id Is betieß clal to the evves and lambs,
