more profitable results. ~
My experience in the past has made
me believe that summer following is
the best way to raise grain. Plow
the land deep in May or June; do it
before the weed seeds get ripe. thor,
oughly cover up all weeds; the green
weeds make manure. l have no trou-
BILE keeping the weeds down by pl0w-
ing just before the seeds are ripe.
Plow once in three years, and use the
disc harrow at other times, this gives
two crops of grain off the land in
three years. Last year after plowing
my land the first part of June, I seed
ed it with oats. All this cost me vas
the seed, the seeding and narrowing
of the land. This crop grew we'll,
and there was no rain after it was
four inches high, still it grew through
the dry weather. l did not cut it until
after a frost, but the frost did not
hurt it. 1t was about half ripe when
cut. 1 cut with a binder, tied and
shocked it, left 1t in the field for two
weeks. then stacked it. Igot fifteen
good loads off fifteen acres. ] fed it
to my horses and cattle and from the
way they ate it, straw and all, it was
quite evident that they liked it, and
they did we'll on it. My mich cows
were fed two bundles each night and
morning and they averaged five lbs.
of butter per week. They are only
common cows, including some heif--.
ers, and some cows that did not give
much milk.
Now it will be seen that l summer
fallowed the land and grew a crop on
it the same year. The crop cost but
very little and was not injured by
early frost, and by being tied in bum
dies was handy to feed at all times.

done better. BENZ. WEBB

someness is better than mere beauty of
features. A face full of the glow of good

If there is a drain on the system and

Abused nerves draw lines of care and

writes its warning on the face long before
