Agricultural notes on crops and farming practices
The article surveys global and U S corn and dairy production, Brazil as a leading producer, and a push for a world agricultural congress. It cites Daniel Hil of Pennsylvania cutting 176 shocks of corn in ten hours thirty five minutes, Texas farmers growing three crops, and President Hill of the Great Northern estimating an agricultural college cost. It warns on barbed wire and fence safety amid storms, notes a Webster Iowa field of towering corn, and ends with a Washington proclamation praising agriculture as the noblest employment.

Real Value of Fertilizer Prices and Grade Comparison
A buyer should compare fertilizer value by actual plant food content rather than price alone. By calculating phosphoric acid per ton and per pound, and similarly valuing nitrogen and potash, the cheaper per ton option may not be the best value. Use standard and high grade analyses to judge cost per pound of plant food.

Growing Violets for Winter Blooms in Cold Frames
The article explains violet cultivation from runners with April planting and August transplanting. Keep beds between 28 and 45 degrees Fahrenheit, water after planting and lightly later, prevent runners, and open sashes to avoid overheating. Bloom arrives from late October to mid March with careful temperature control and daily sash management.
Sheep Keep Farm Free From Weeds and Profit
Farmers overlook the value of a well bred sheep flock for weed control and profit. A small flock, kept with other stock, reduces labor, consumes coarse forage, and helps eradicate noxious weeds. With careful feeding and management, thirty breeding ewes on 100 acres can yield over 7 dollars per ewe, plus wool and lamb sales, making sheep one of the best paying farm investments.
