Cleaning Tn Poultry Yards.

Spading or blowing a poultry yard is
not cleaning it up according TO our
view Of the case. 1t is simply conserv.
ing the filth and preventing the purify
ing sunshine from doing its sanitary
work The way to clean up poultry
yard is to clean it up and burn the
trash or remove it and use it TO fer.
tllize cultivated crops. Flowing is all
right If the fowls are to be removed
and crop Of some sort grown, for i'm
that case the crops remove most of the
deleterious matter. But in this case
the yard ceases to be poultry yard
for Il season. The way TO clean poul-
try yard is TO use Il rake. a broad
broom. fire and n wheelbarrow and
then give the sun free access to the
surface. Spade up a place for the
fowls TO scratch and wallow in. and
the thing is done about right.-Farm

HINTS FOR FARMERS


pIowinE Under Green Crops
In the report OF the farmers ins:i
tute of Ontario Duncan Anderson
writes OF Green Crops as Fertilizers"
He says h. has two farms. one of
them being mile or more from where
he lives. II is too FAR to haul manure.
50 he has found il necessary to sow
green crops to be plowed in for cult
walton.
Glover has proved most satisfactory.
although IL Il catch of it is not secured
peas will be valuable.
The value of clover as a green ma
nure is shown by the fact that a fair
crop gathers in its stalks, leaves and
roots, per acre. 13S pounds of nitrogen.
ll5 OF potash aud 46 OF phosphoric
acid. With nitrogen worth 10 cents
pound. the money value is great.
1t may not be practical to lose a crop
in order to gain the fertilization. but in
some instances it has proved well to
do so. the succeeding wheat crop bring
ing in far more than the clover crop
and smaller wheat crop could have
done. An average crop of clover. how
ever, which has been made into hay.
will leave between ten and eleven tons
OF root growth per acre. which will
benefit the soil almost imInea sura bly,.
The fertiliziDg effect of the broad
leaves shading the surface OF the soil
adds to the usefulness of the clover.
No rotation can be complete unless
clover is prominent in it. IL cleans the
soil as well rs enriches il. IL is best
to SOW the clover seed In front OF the
drill instead of behind il. If sown be-
hind the drill, the seed will, for the most
part, fall in the same tracks rs the oats
or barley. which, being stronger, will
sap up the fertility. Air and sunlight
and a deep root are needed for a good
catch, with strength to resist the fall
drought.

Care of Farm Implements.

Are your binder and mower still out
where you stopped work last? Are the
plows still coated with the soil OF last
springs plowing2 These things cost
money, and the rust. like a canker will
eat up your profits. The last thing to
do when the harvest is over is TO clean
the reaper and mower and put them
away. Clean away all the old caked
grease and dirt and use kerosene TO
loosen up the accumulation. Then in
the fall after all the farm implements
are in put coat of paint on all sur
faces of wood or iron that are painted
and give the polished mold boards a
coat OF boiled oil. Then when work
opens again you viii have tools and
implements in order to begin and will
save time and increase the life OF the
tools very materially.

WAR IN LOUISVILLE
TROUBLE ARISES FROM THE SHIP
MENTs OUT OR INTO THE CITY
FROM COMPETITIVE POINTS.

Louisville. KY, July 2.-The Times to-
day says:
Wa is on between the Southern Rail-
read and the Louisville and Nashville in
Louisville over all shipments out of or
into this city from competitive points.
The Southerner today issued circular
offering to Louisville shippers payment
of drayage on a number of articles which
are sent out of Louisville in large quanti-
ties and In which competition with the
Louisville and Nashville is liveliest Ac-
cording to the Times statement the ac-
tion of the Southern was taken on ac-
count of the fact that the Louisville and
Nashville had recently spent large sum
In terminal and switching facilities In
Louisville. putting the competitive roads
at disadvantage. While the Louisville
and Nashville will allow non-competing
roads to use the switches on payment OF
switching charges, 1t will not allow busi-
ness to or from a competitive point to
pass over its local tracks
The Southern by the payment of dray-
age to it's shippers, seeks to overcome
this disadvantage.
At the Southern office 1t was admitted
that the circular had been issued, but
the claim was made that 1t was simply in
compliance with the Interstate commerce
law.

transports bow and the collier towed her
to Hampton Roads, where she now lies
awaiting repairs at the Newport News

such a nature as to give the pumps all
they can do to keep the vessel afioat.
The troops and passengers have been
landed. The trip was made with the tow
in four days and twenty-one hours.
