CLOVER SUBSTITUTE.
yarioua Experiment Stations Have
Recently Issued Gratifying Re.
ports ON the Soy Bean.

The soy or Sofa bean il an upright,
stiff-stemmed, branching bean, intro
duced a few years ago from Japan,
which is rapidly coming to the front as
a most valuable forage plant. 1t has
been grown for several years by the
Ohio experiment station with very sat-
isfactory results. Planted on some OF
our poorest soils, it has produced two
to three tons of excellent dry forage or
hay per acre, which is eaten with rel
ish by all kinds of stock. AS crop to
turn under for green manuring we do
not know its equal. As the soy bean is
a warm weather plant it should not be
planted before the last of May in north
ern Ohio, nor before the middle in the
southern part of the state. When
planted for forage it is sown at the
rate of bushel and half to the acre,
on well-prepared land, sowing with the
wheat drill with all the runs open.
Thus sown it soon covers the ground
and there is no trouble from weeds or
foxtail. It should be harvested before
frost, and cured as hay. The soy bean,
like clover, adds nitrogen to the soil,
and it is therefore renovating, instead
of an exhausting crop. It is especially
suited to take the place Of clover in
a systematic rotation where the clover
has been killed out by severe winters,
as is the case at present over large
part of Ohio, or where the spring seed
ing of clover has failed to catch. The
Ohio experiment station has used it
in such cases with such good results
that it feels justified in urging the
farmers of the state to give it a care
full trial. There are several varieties
of soy beans some of which will ma
ture seed in Ohio, while others will not.
AS rule, the latter class are more
valuable for forage. as they make
larger growth. The beans, however,
which are produced at the rate of ten
to twenty bushels per acre, are val
liable feeding stuff, as they are quite
high in protein, and to some extent
take the place of such materials as
linseed meal in the ration. The Kan
sas experiment station has fed them
to fattening hogs with the result of
effecting a large saving in the quanti-
ty of food required to make pound
of pork, and others report similar re-
suits in feeding them to sheep. The
experiment station has no seed of these
beans for distribution, but it may be
procured of most of the principal
seedsmen.

The Colors of Chicks,

Do not be discouraged if chicks do
not appear true to color when Matched.
No chicks are Matched entirely black,
as there will be some white on them
when they come out of the shells. This
is the case with the Langshans, Black
Java, Black Spanish, Black Hamburg
and Black Cochin breeds, but after the
feathers begin to take the place of
the down on their bodies the white
passes away and the chicks soon be-
come entirely black. If the chicks
from white breeds appear to have off
color" they will become of the correct
color later on. In fact, sometimes
when the chicks are pure white it may
denote that they were not strictly
pure, but few years more of breed
ing will fix the color, as the darker
birds of the white breeds are all be-
ing culled out.-Farm and Fireside.

Throw it over and fasten in precisely

If the chains are too loose. the smaller

THE FARMERS BANK.
II IL His Land and Unless He Lays Up
Surplus of Fertility Bank
ruptcy Il Unavoidable.

The land of the United States is her
national bank from which her TO-,
100000 people constantly draw wealth
in it's many forms. In the beginning
the Creator deposited in the bosom of
the earth untold riches, filled the soil
with richness and thus provided man
with fountain of wealth. 1ntelli-
gence has served man as his check book,
and its application to the land has rep
resented filled-out draft presented
to bank. Year after year checks have
been presented and honored until now
In many sections of the country it is
apparent that Overdrafts have been
made. Unproductive fields and desert
ed farms prove it. This has been
brought about by mans ignorance of
the great laws of nature. He has
been drawing on his farm bank with
out making any deposits.
In this sense every farmer is bank
er. His holdings represent bank.
Before soil depletion was produced his
credit was good and his deposits were
rich. But having drawn all boarded
wealth and exhausted the banks funds
the imprudent farmer finds everything
going wrong. He sows, but does not
reap a good crop, as in days of yore.
He works, but it brings meager re-
turns. Where rs cents is drawn to-day
from the farm-bank he could few
years ago just as easily have drawn
one dollar. This is the punishment i'm
posed by nature for the disobedience of
her laws, for extravagant demands on
the land and the failure of man to hus-
band the fertility of the soil.
Green and barnyard manureS yearly
should be deposited in the bank-farm.
If fertility worth $500, for instance, be
drawn therefrom, then, in order to
maintain good reserve, deposit that
amount in some form of fertility.
Clover will perform wonders in this
connection. 1t will keep money in the
bank, so to speak, and keep nature
in pleasant mood, ever ready to honor
the farmers drafts and do his bidding.

COOP FOR CHICKENS.
Not Very New Design. But One
Whose Usefulness Has Never
Been Questioned.

The coop illustrated below was de-
signed by j. w. Vale. He says, in de-
scribing it:
For young chicks, coops are gen.
orally a necessity. Besides shelter
ing from storms, and protecting the
chicks from vermin and larger depre-
dators, they give person good con-
troll of the brood. Every coop should
be provided with a good lath run.
The brood coop shown in the accom-
panying cut is kind I have used
for years with good results. 1t can
be made larger or smaller as required.
With me the standard size is 26 inches
long, 20 inches wide, with a height of
e2 inches in front and II inches in
