A majority of the shoulder troubles arise from using cellars too large. These move and shift with every motion of the horse. Even collars that fit reasonably well at first sometimes stretch and enlarge with use, while the necks, as they harden, grow smaller, even ﬁ the horses Keep in good condition, bence chafing soon wears the neck, or creates shoulder boils, and the suffering that foliows Increases the stress and wear upon the animal's vitality, often to such an ‘extent that great loss of flesh follows. Freéguently, even if there is no break in the skin, It is practically impossible for an animal to do its best in a collar that bears chiefly on the outside front of the shoulders, or against the points of the lower shoulder, rather than close up all around the neck.

The rolling of winter wheat in the spring has never failed to increase the yield in experiments by the Nebraska experiment station during four years, it showing an average of 5.1 bushels per acre increase. The rolling was given early in the spring, soon after frost was out and about the fime growth started. Harrowing after rolling was not ag good as rolling alone, probably due to loosening up the plants again after the roller had pressed -them firmly into the soil. Early spring rolling of winter grain, pressing the earth as it doet firmly about the plant roots, produces good results. When frost comes out in the spring it is very apt to leave the soil filled with small cracks or checks, especially around the plants. If these checks are examined closely it_will be seen that a large number of roots are thus exposed, and if the weather continues dry they are killed or at least injured. We have taken up plants in the spring where half of the roots were injured in this manner. If the .soil is not wet at the time of rolling—and it should never be rolled when wet—rolling aids in no small degree to form a surface mulch. It does this rather than compact the sur face. : §

Other troubles at f{arrowing are also frequent Where sows have heen fed too much fattening food and have had little exercise. The presnant sow is a pig factory and the feed she demands fs- that which will make bone, muscle and gristte, for that is what the pig consists of. Feed her whole cats, barley, shorta a little oil meal, ete, and only 't"_mmg};cm’n to keep her in good condition. See that ghe takes ample exercise, Feed her some distance from her pen and scatter whole grain thinly on the ground making it necessary far her to spend considerable time in gathering enough to satisfy her. Sows fed in this way will geldom have any trouble at far rowing or evince any desire to eat their yvoung. : There are. several cardinal reasons why the separator is needed on every farm where cows are kept: I.—lt saves lots of time over the old method of raising the cream. 2.—lt saves work, as there are no jars or pans to fuss with and wash. 3.~—1t Is easter to carry the cream to the creamery two or three times a week than it {s to send a wagon load of milk cans each day. 4—lt saves money in the |{amount of extra cream which is ohtained. s~—The warm skim milk is better for the stock, whether it is calves or pigs. Statistics show that the feeding value of separator skimming is from 20 cents to 40 cents per hundred-weight. ‘- Therefore, by feeding it to the young stock with a lttle oil ‘cake, they will get fatter than they did by the old method, and with separator skim milk they escape the sickness that comes from the gravity milk. 6.—The cream from the separator makes better butter than that which is raised by the old pan methods. It is a well-known fact that butter fat with impurities in it will not made as good butter as butter fat with the Impurities taken out. = The separator removes all these natural impurities. 7.—There is more money {in it all around where the farmer uses a separator, for he gets more crean, better cream, hence makes highes | Brade butter, and gets better returns ;ﬁm n his stock because of the fresh

Exterminating the Prairie Dog.— The prairie dog has become such a pest in the national forests of Arizona and New Mexico, that the United States forest service has decided to carry out an active campaign for its extermination, says Scientific American. Poisons are used, such as strychnine, cyanide of potassium, anise oil, and molasses, .the poison Dbeing smeared over wheat. The riders carry the wheat in a tin pail supported by a gunny sack slung across the shoulder. One hand is free for the reins. With the other:the rider uses a teaspoon to measure out the poison. ‘ :

. The comparatively recent sage of the highest mountains 1s most eonclusively shown by the simple fact that they have resisted the vigorous denuding agencles which are- everywhere st work to tear them down; that is, the fact that they exist at all shows that they are young For the momegnt a wrinkle of land rises out of the water the winds and rains and frost begin to act upon it, tearing it to pieces and carrying it back isto the sea. The higher it rises the tmore active become all these agencies. The flanks of the slowly rising mass aré soon plowed into gorges and ravines by the torrents of water which flow rapidly ‘'down them, while the rocks above are cracked by the altéernate action of the heat of the sun's ravs and the cold of the rarefied stmbsphere at great helghta, so that a vast tajus of rocky debdris collects about all the precipices, while glaclers in elow but majestic movements pick up the debris and carry it down to lower Yevels at the same time griod. ok a consjderable portion of it into powder, so that it can be esally car ried off by the Noods resulting from the melting of the fce. Calculations as to the rapidity with which these denuding agencies are at work in sll high mountaius would show some startling results. At the rate at which these agencies are at work In the Alps they will lose from 10,000 to 12,000 feet of their height in the course of 1,004,060 years, and therefore be reduced to somewhat such - proportions as we have in the Allegheny mountains or in the mountains in New England. PBut the great: ¢r masses of mountains of central Asia and In western . America wouid resist these agencles for a much longer period, and will re main in lofty leights long after such narrow ranges as the Alps and the Caucasus have dwindled infto insignificance. The principal evidence upon which Prof. Russell relies to prove the very recent elevation of Mount Baint Elias i{s that its flanks show s 0 Httle sign of erosion.
