an Advantage Over Many
Other oceupationa.
Roushness makes manure, but not =
good - fine feed.
See that winter cost does not consume
tire summer gain.
Noweed can live that 10 not permitted
to stick it head shove ground and
breathe.
Removing corn tassels for the purpose
Of increasing the yield has thus far been
of little avail.
Wide tires on the wagons are impor-
tant. In France, where they have the
best roads in the world, four 70 six-inch
tires are common.
Farmers who burn wood hal better
haul their winter supply while the roads
are yet solid and work in the wheat field
il prevented by drought.
Poultry Of the best breeds are now 10
plentiful that unless for fanciers, show
and breeding purposes . trio or two may
be had for . trifie. They will amply ne
pay their cost.
Some poultrymen in England feed
horse chestnuts to their poultry. The
nuts are firrt STEPPED in lime water, th-n
we'll washed and boiled to Q paste. So
prepared, they are very fsttening.
The fret purpose Of the farm should
be the production Of such things IS arc
available for home consumption. Don't
try to grow crops for market until YOU
have FIRST supplied this home demand.
The "dairy belt" has suffered from
one of the most protracted droughts on
record. Farmers who have not done 90
before should put down wells to an un-
limited supply Of water. 1t 10 . good
time to do it.
The covered barnyard provides prac-
teal way Of protecting the manure from
being wasted. It need not be very large
nor very expensive. Built with due
economy, it will pay large interest upon
its cost every year.
Do not neglect to make . general clean
ing up Of the farm before the cold
weather sets in. Leave no rubbish about.
1t looks unsizhtly, makes more work for
you in the spring and. worst Of all, is .
place to harbor and breed vermin.
A good garden will give more profit
than any five acres Of staple crops. Even
n economy Alone shouId be sufScient
Argument for having It. And besides
being profitable the garden 10 healthful.
| II the distxie4s Of Europe where there
q Q hay famine we're . little nearer, we
would see boom In tho cultivation OF
grasses. A. 4 i. oar larmes would find
| Il no loes b give more attention to this,
and possibly . little Len b wheat and
corn for 3 time.
