Mr. Mason advtsej that the trenches not be too long The stalks are packed In tbe trench fairly tight In mild weather Mr. Mason covers the celery with boards nailed V abape. Later on it may receive more covering. It is given sir according to the weather. Mr. Mason does not make a practice of keeping it very late in the season in the trench, however, be said be had kept it this wav at

late as April.

Mr. Mason Is thoroughly convinced that too close cultivation of celery, thereby cutUng roots, duces celery blight or causes sembllng a spotting of the leaves

Mr. Swain does not know the name of this potato but says it is as fine as be has ever eaten. It is very much like a Green Mountain.

There are three common forms of agricultural lime on th< market: raw ground limestone, burnt lime and hydrated lime. Burnt !ime is obtained by burning the raw limestone. Hydrated lime is obtained by adding water to the burnt lime. If one ton of raw limestone is burned, something over 1000 pounds of burnt lime would be obtained, depending on tbe parity of the raw material. By adding the proper amount of water to slake this 1000 pounds of bnrnt lime. It would give about 1333 pounds of hydrated lime. In other words, tbe following amounts of the various forms of lime are of about equal value rfor agricultural purposes: 2000 pounds of finely ground limestone. 1000 pounds of burnt lime. ISIS pounds of hydrated lime. Pounds of calcium oxide (burnt lime) removed from the soil by various crops, per acre: alfalfa 212; cabbage 95; corn 12; clover 90; potatoes 31: wheat 8. Lime not only neutralizes soil activity, thus providing favorable conditions for friendly microorganisms. but it also Improves the physical character of soils, promotes decomposition, makes plant food available and enters Into tbe composition of plants. It is also the best known preventative for club root of cabbage and allied

Farm and Home Calendar

Rye may yet be sown as s cover crop, even though it will probably not make much growth before winter sets in. In addition to the advantage of a cover crop, weeds and grass plowed under now will be of more use to next year's crops than If they are allowed to remain over winter on top of the ground. In other words, they will decompose to a greater extent if plowed under than if they are ' lowed to stand until spring. Fix up the farm workshop. Put a stove in It and prepare to use It as headquarters this winter for general repa'r work. Considerable expense can be avoided by making little repairs to farm tools and machinery in time. Now is a good time to get rid of those “pesky" rats. Board floors close to the ground make excellent harbors for them. Where possible either raise the building high enough for dogs and cats to get under or remove the floor entirely. Haul all rubbish away from the barns and pile lumber on blocks at lust one foot high. Build new building rat proof, as well as corn cribs, feed houses and feed boxes. Nothing encourages rats as much as free access to corn cribs and

feed boxes. Calcium cyanide dust wilt quickly kill rats where their runways B ne accessible for using the dust. If the chickens have pox. feed two per cent, sulfur In the ms<h. One good poultryman says that he doesn't believe It helps any. however. It may at least ease your peace of mind, and ft certainly will not do tbe chickens any harm. Examine the chickens for lice, and the under side of the roosting poles for red mites For the first, smear a little blue ointment under the vent of the bird. For mites, palm the under side of the roosts with old or used crankcase oil.

hens are in the process of moulting and pullets have not yet commenced to lay. Thousands of farmers lose large sums of money simply because they do not hatch their pullets early enough so they will begin laying in time for j tbe high prices during the fail' and winter months. They fail to realize that pullets are almost the < only source of egga at that time] of year, because hens are sure to I moult, and they may take from 30 to 90 days to go through the complete moult.

Your Seed Corn i mouth ago the corn crop seemed to be headed for trouble. Today the prospects ore much brighter. The coolest August In

fifty years, a normal September, and the hottest October on record Is the peculiar history of the past three months. There Is still a fairly high degree of moisture In some of our corn, and we may expect a cold snap almost any day. The wise man. will set aside the best ears as soon as busking starts. He will put them away in a safe place whore they will dry out quickly and at the same time will not be subjected to freezing weather.

Frozen silage must be tbswed before using, after which It should be fed immediately, before decomposition sets In. No harm will result from feeding such silage, nor Is the nutritive value known to be changed In any way.
