It is a mysterious thing that I spontaneous' combustion. and the won- der is that it does not intrigue the l fancy of some scientist anxious to , solve serious farm problems. it is proved to us that one kind ot grain will yield heavier or is stiffer in the straw than another variety. It has been lemonstrated over and over again that legumes are more valuab- le teed than timothy or conch grass. LGmWers are deluged with experimen- tal proof that good seed will produce larger yields than poor seed: and " ter the farmer has done all these things and stored the bountiful har- vest made possible by science, the, barn and its contents go up in one ‘catastrophic burst of smoke anda “lame because no one has taken thei 'trouhle to discover the actual cause lot spontaneous combustion and what ‘wlll prevent it. We have been informed on good authority that salt sprinkled through the mow will prevent the formation and ignition of dangerous gases. An 'equally good authority claims that {salt makes the hay more palatable,) lhut will not prevent combustion and, gthere you are!
