GERMS ON THE FARM.
soms Are Detriment, Some a Bene-
ft-Use Latter to Fight
the Form.

In the popJ.-r acceptance OF the
81 -, a germ Is any very minute liv-
ia ,eing; whether animal or vege.
table, is immaterial. They are all in.
visible to the naked eye, and some Of
them are so small as to be seen with
great difficulty even with the most
powerful microscopes made. They are,
generally, the smallest living things
in the world. The vegetable germs are
called bacteria and fungi the animal
germs, protozoans. While so exceed
ingly small, the life histories of many
germs are as well known as the lives
of higher forms of life, and yet, the
earnest study OF these minute beings
does not extend back much more than
25 years.
In a general way, the great purpose
of germs in the world may BE- said
to hasten decay. Indeed, some scien-
lists say there is no decay where
germs are not. These invisible forms
quickly convert dead animals and veg
etable structures into earth, water and
air, or in other words, into the SIM
pie compounds of earth and water.
Warmth and moisture promote germ
growth and hence, decay.
The first purpose OF germ life is
beneficial. A second action is also
utilized by mankind In the nalnu-
triton and ripening of certain prod
ucts, germs are the active agen.s. Thus,
cream and cheese are ripened, before
use, through bacterial action. The
ripening of wine and beer due t. SIM
liar action. Beef is made tender, and
the flavor of game is developed in the
same manner, by germ growth in the
tissues. The fermentation of cabba %
into sauerkraut is another illustration
along the same line, and bread is
raised" through germ activity in
yeast.
Again. bacteria (or germs) are use-
ful in gathering and preparing plant
food in the soil. On plants OF the clover
and bean family, bacteria gather in
colonies on the roots, and the reaction
which is produced between the air and
soil by these germs is the development
Of nitrogenous plant food. This is ono
of the greatest achievements OF these
little beings for the benefit of man.
This work is of incalculable value TO
the farmer, and TO all mankind.
But the work of germs is not wholly
beneficial, declares DR.. George q. Groff,
In the Farm Journal. They nave their
evil ways as well as their good ones.
Some germs have fallen upon the bad
habit of killing plants and animals
before these would naturally die Thus
the potato rot, the black rot il the
grape, the rot of the plum and cherry,
the black knot on the plum and cherry
trees, rust on grain, and other plant
diseases, are caused by germs. In the
case Of animals, glanders, nydfopho-
bia, tuberculosis, pleuro-pneumcnia
lockjaw, lumplaw, anthrax and many
others, are germ diseases. Among
mankind, consumption, pneumonia.
tetanus, diphtheria. scarlet end ty-
phoid fevers. cholera, dysentory. small
pox, mumps, measles, the oriental
plague, and other diseases, are caused
by germs.

COW PEAS.
Being Adapted to Northern Growth
and Proving a Good Crop for
-v" Making Hay.

We would advise most of our read
ers to make a study of COW peas, for
on many Of our farms they will be
found available. Cow peas are among
the most interesting farm plants that
we have. This was until quite re.
Gently considered a plant adapted TO
the United States south of the Ohio
river, but within a few years COW
peas have been raised as far north
as Michigan and Wisconsin. They
have rlpened seed as far north as
Madison. They make a good crop for
plowing under when the soil Is def.
cient in humus and needs some green
manure. They have a large leafy top.
A man must choose. however. the
variety suited for his purpose. II he
intends to plow them under he must
use a non.running variety, as the
long vines Of the running varieties
cannot be easily plowed under, for
obvious reasons.
The COW pea makes a good hay. but
must be cut early or the leaves viii
fall off. AS a hay crop II is being
displaced by the soy bean South Of
central Illinois COW peas may te
grown much more successfully than
north Of that point, where the frosts
come early. To those wishing to go
into the details Of COW pea growing,
the Farmers Review suggests the
sending to your state experiment sta
tion for their literature on the grow.
ing Of COW peas in your state. Every
state has its peculiar conditions and
the use that can be made. of the COW
pea in one state Is not the same as the
use that can be made of it in another
state. -ssF.E frE1',.,,-..

sides and sometimes in meadows where
there is not a dense growth of grass.
The cultivated clovers are preferred
to this one because they are larger and
capable of furnishing a greater amount
Of fodder on given area. The yellow
clover, however, is of some value In
helping to maintain supply of good
pasturage on our uncultivated lands.

The school election yesterday resulted in
a complete victory for the democratic
ticket Emmett FINLEY and George A.
schoedsHck being elected members OF the
Board Of Education and George s. Davis
being elected school treasurer. All three
were elected by good sized maiorities.
While there was no excitement around
the polling booths. there was evidently
much interest displayed in the election and
the result was a good sized vote. The
democrats apparently had everything their
own way from the opening Of the polls.
and even in the wards known to be strongly
republican the figures snow that many re-
publicans must have voted for the demo-
cratic nominees In the Sixth ward. which
Is supposed to be strongly republican. the
democratic nominees polled vote OF 2 TO /
against the republican candidates.
The contest for school treasurer would
have been an exceedingly close one but

cratic nominee in the First ward Here
Davis received lO1 majority over MCGEE.
