The Sofa Benn.

The sofa bean is grown for the same
purpose that COW peas areas a feed
and for improvement of the lands.
They contain some more feed per acre
than the COW pea. They will stand wet
or dry whether better than the COW
pea. When growing beans for seed,
the crop should not be moved until
the grains are almost ripe. Corn is cut
when the grains are too hard for eat
ing. The same rule will apply to sofa
beans. They can be cut with hand
scythe or with mower They can be
tbreshed with a threshing machine.
Put the bean plants in small cocks un-
til the seed become thoroughly dry be
fore attempting to thresh. The aver
age yield is from 25 to 80 bushels OF
beans per acre; the seed sell for s1.50
to 81 per bushel. The heads or stalks
can be fed to stock in the winter. AS
hundreds of farmers have sown sofa
beans on the recommendations of the
agriculturist, it will be some satisfac-
ton to us to know how they are
pleased with the yield and plant
Maj. Key, in Southern Agriculturist-
The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1905-10-28

The statement has been made that
there is no inexhaustible soil. This is
true only in part There is great
deal of plant food tied up in the soil,
but before it can be used by the plants
it has to become available-that is, in
such form that the plant can utilize it
1t is very easy to exhaust the soil OF
all the available plant food by con-
tinuously growing one crop year after
year. Each particular crop uses diff
ferent form of plant food, and some
add plant food to the SOIL In order to
make a soil inexhaustible it is neces-
sary to rotate the crops grown on it
Rotation will make soil more pro-
ductive. There are many instances OF
farms considered worn out which have
been taken and, by the proper rotation
of crops, made to produce better than
they ever did. Prof. Bailey, of Cornell
university. says that the most marked
benefit from rotation comes from the
incorporation of nitrogen compounds
through the use of leguminous plants.
Since nitrogen is the most expensive
and usually the most EARLY lost OF the
plant-food elements that the farmer has
to buy, this role of the leguminous
plant is the most important. 1t is sig
nificant that the most of the early rota-
tons which were developed before .
rational explanation could be given con-
sumed some legume-"
The farmer must combine good cul-
tivation with rotation to make his soil
inexhaustible and this is the only way
that it will go on producing crops
without deterioration. Everything
wears out by use and must be renewed,
and the soil is no exception.-Drovers'

PLANTING STRAWBERRIES.
Fall Planting Recommended Fer
Those who Raise Strawberries
For Market.

A noted small fruit grower says that
he supposed the time had passed for
anyone to advocate the fall setting of
strawberries for com mercial purposes.
| not only recommend it, but practice
ii quite extensively, for the reason that
the largest and best berries are grown
Oh fali-set plants, and, besides, | find
il very profitable. So far as setting
plants is concerned, it is less labor
to do the work in the spring. but that
is a small item compared with the
tillage and keeping the vines clear Of
weeds.
Those who saw my fall-set plants
in bearing last spring were willing to
admit that they were the equal of any,
thing they ever saw No doubt those
who are obliged to get their plants
from a distance will fail of obtaining
satisfactory results, and had better con-
fire themselves to spring planting. But
if they can ger plants near by, or grow
them, which is the better way, they
make a great mistake if they thus con-
fine themselves. 1t is quite difficult
to get rev plants, well grown, in time
for fall planting from spring-set plants,
and dcrbt If l should make success
were obliged to use them, unless they
were grown in pots. But the plants
from fall setting will be so well es-
tablished by the middle of August that
lots of dirt will adhere when trans
planting. have never been able to
obtain satisfactory second crop from
spring-set plants, while l never failed
of securing big second crop from fall
paintings.
Why not take time by the forelock,
and set at least part of your plants
in the fall, when you have plenty OF
tire, even if you do not wish to fruit
them until year later? l am sure it
| would be better to place the plants
where you want them to grow in the
fall, where they will spring into growth
as soon as the frost is out of the
| ground, instead of digging and setting
| the plants in the spring just at a time
when they wish to grow. Try it and
be convinced.-William Beebe, in Ohio

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge Of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children It ruins = child's DISPOSE
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often Is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she IL entirely nnfat to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; it Is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills Of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency. "the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irrftabiiity OF
women arise from some arrangement
Of the female organism.
Do You experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like crying?
Do you feel something like bali ris
ing in your throat and threatening e
choke you; all the senses perverted
morbidly sensitive TO light and sound
pain in the ovaries, and especially
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia, and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof Is monumental that nothing II
the world Is better for nervous prostra
ton than Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women testify to this fact.
