THE EARLY WEED.
IF He Is Attended To the Later Task
of Cultivation Will Be
Made Easy.

We hear a great deal about the
early bird catching the early worm.
but not enough about the early farm
er catching the early weed. I have
found that the best time to stop the
growing of weeds is just before they
appear above the ground, or if they
have already appeared, while they are
still minute in size and before their
roots have struck into the soil.
At that time a single sweep of the
hoe will loosen up che soil under
thousands of these little weeds and
in an hour or so they are dead. At
that time they are not drawing nour-
ishment from the ground, but from the
seed itself. Without nourishment they
must wither, and this is what they do
when taken in time.
l have fought weeds for 40 years,
says writer in the Farmers Review,
and find this is the best way of getting
ahead of them. The early weed must
be guarded against, and if properly
handled will be disposed of with little
labor. The great amount OF labor
spent in digging up weeds in the gar
den is largely wasted. I have seen
some of my neighbors digging weeds
out of the bean patch when the weeds
were a foot high, ard had sent their
roots into the ground for about the
same distance.

Of Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis.,, June 26.-Special. -Chas.
I. Peterson, Justice of the Peace for
Oconto Co., has delivered a Judgment that
is of interest to the whole United States.
Put briefly, that judgment is, "Dodd's
Kidney Pills are the best Kidney medi-
cine on the market today"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason for
this Judgment. He says: Last winter I
had an aching pain in my back which
troubled me very much. In the morning
| could hardly straighten my back. | did
not know what it was but an advertise
ment led me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
After taking one box l can only say they
have done more for me than expected as
| feel as well now as ever / did before"
Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms of Kidney disease. If not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may de-
velop into Bright's Disease, Diabetes,
Rheumatism or some of the other deadly
forms of Kidney Disease.

quite as satisfactory as perches-the

ing that the hens might turn them into

We built square, tight floor over
this roost about foot larger than the
diameter of the wheel, and about two
feet above it, and then put a burlap
curtain on two sides that reaches from
this platform to within foot of the

of this Enclosure, we have "hop-up-

This winter we have fed whole oats
plentifully along with some corn, and
small grains, and plenty of apples, and
the eggs they have laid is surprising.
The eggs in daily number for weeks
averaged two-thirds the number of

much hen knowledge, but feel pretty
sure if the hen-house is made free
from air currents, and is dry and the
hens can be fixed SO that they will

food have fine bone and plenty of
gravel (not frozen solid) and pure wa

for the farmer to have eggs in the
winter-if he has young hens.

LATENT FERTILITY.
Results of Experiment on Forty Nine
Different Soils of United States
Are Telling

An average of the results of 40 analy-
ses of the typical soils of the United
States showed per acre for the first eight
inches of surface 1900 pounds of nitro
gen, 1880 pounds of phosphoric acid
and 13,400 pounds of potash. The ay-
erage yield of wheat in the United States
is Il bushels per acre. Such q crop will
remove 29.7 pounds of nitrogen, 9.5
pounds of phosphoric acid and 1871
pounds of potash.
Now if all the potential nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash could be
rendered available there is present in
such an average soil, in the first eight
inches, enough nitrogen to last 80,
enough phosphoric acid for 500 and
enough potash for 1000 years
This is what is meant by potential
soil fertility, and yet such a soil, pos
sessing the same high potential fertil-
ity, may, under certain conditions, be
so actually barren of results to the
farmer as to lead him to believe it abb
solutely devoid of plant food.
A soil at Rothamstead, England,
which has been successfully cropped
to grain for so yearswithout the addition
of manure, and which consequently had
become exhausted, especially in avail
able phosphoric acid, still contained a
total of 1880 pounds of the latter per
acre in the first foot of depth -Delaware

FEED ALFALFA FOR GRAIN.
Two Years. Experiments Bring Out
Fact That Material Is Good
for the Cows.

For two years experiments have been
carried on in Tennessee to test the value
of alfalfa, wheat bran, cowpeas and
cottonseed oil as best for milk cows.
These experiments are carefully con-
Quoted and the results are most valuable
as showing that the cost of milk can be
greatly reduced by replacing a part of
the concentrates in the daily ration OF
the COW with some roughness rich in
protein, such as alfalfa or cowpea hay.
says the Prairie Farmer.
1t is an advantage to feed dry rough
ness which is INTENDED to replace par.
of the concentrates in a ration with
silage, because of its succulent and pal
atable nature
A ton of alfalfa or pea hay can be pro-
duced at cost of from So to SIS, whereas
wheat bran costs from $40 to $25. From
two to three tons of pea hay and from
three to five tons of alfalfa can be OBJ
tanned from an acre of land; hence there
is a great advantage in the utilization of
these roughnesses in the place of wheat
bran.
The substitution of roughness rich
in protein for an expensive concentrate
will enable the dairyman to make milk
and butter at less cost and will thus
solve one of his most serious problems.
In substituting alfalfa hay for wheat
bran it will be best to allow / Y pounds
of alfalfa to each pound of wheat bran.
and the results are likely to prove more
satisfactory if the alfalfa is fed in a
finely chopped condition.
These tests indicate that with alfalfa
hay at $40 ton and wheat bran at $40
the saving effected by substituting al
falfa for wheat bran would be $3.50 for
every 100 pounds of butter and 1873
cents for every 100 pounds of milk.
The farmer could thus afford to sell his
milk for 1913 cents a hundred less than
he now receives and his butter for about
% cents as compared with 25 cents
pound.
When alfalfa was fed under the most
favorable conditions gallon of milk
was obtained for 81 cents and pound
of butter for 1914 cents. When pea hay
was fed the lowest cost of gallon OF
milk was So cents and of pound of
butter 9.4 cents. In localities where pea
hay grows we'll it can be utilized to re-
place wheat bran and in sections where
alfalfa can be grown this crop can be
substituted for pea hay with satisfac-
ton.
