we could call a good crop out
here. They are sometimes average.
And as for the roads we can't brag
of them and may never be able to.
Itlooks to us like brag in order
to help out the division question.
If we had fair roads the editor Of
the Pioneer and Mr.. Dalquist would
not have got lost in the swamp, and
our storekeepers would be able to
get their goods hauled from Middle
River. Truly, we think this part
of the county has bright prospects,
but not as glowing as some of the
division agitators would have one
believe. -. .-: +.

ON LOADING HAY.
Some Suggestions Which Will Help
to Keep New Hay from Heat
ing and Spelling.

The most essential point in loading
new hay, says dealer, in Country
Gentleman, is to see that it is not
loaded fat-that is, with the fiat sides
OF the bale up. When loadedsthis way.
with the smooth sides of the bales to-
gether, no space is left for air, and
as consequence it invariably heats
A properly loaded car has the edges or
rough sides of the bales together. This
allows air space between the bales.
and always prevents danger of heat
ing. Do not try to load cars with the
purpose of beating the railroad out Of
a few cents in weight. It's much bet
ter to pay In excess of the actual
weight, If necessary, for the selling
price Of your hay will more than
make up to you the excess freight ex-
pense. In putting up hay, it derey,ds
largely upon whom you ship to as to
the size of the bales. Ii you ship 10
small jobbers who deal almost exclu-
sively with the retail trade of the
city, it is advisable to make the bales
small, but generally the trade on the
market will create as good a demand
for 75-pound bales as for 60-postn,1
bales.

Humus Lacking.

B AS travel about through this coun-
try, notice that there has been q
great decrease in the fertility of many
farms. In times past, according to
the reports Of the farmers and my own
observations, the crops were much
larger than at present. The cause
for this decreased fertility is the con-
tinued growing of corn year after year,
and no proper regard to rotation, says
a writer IN Farmers Review. So Tar
as I can understand, the chief lack
IN the soil OF the worst rundown farm
IS humus. The farmers are doing
almost nothing to bring these farms
back to their first fertility. Accord
ing to my experience believe that
livestock farming, which will give a
large amount Of available fertility, will
bring back these farms to their orig
inal condition Of productiveness, pro-
yided that clover is used in the nta-
ton.

be quickly and easily done. Another
way, suggests the Farmers Review, is
to have the block or stump near an out
building, where piece of timber can be
nailed on the corner in proper position
to hold the post while being sharpened.
This takes little less work in prepara-
ton than the first plan, but the work
must always be done in the same place,
while by the other plan the tripod can
be taken anywhere it is wanted. In this
connection the chopping block used in
splitting wood might be mentioned.
Much labor may be saved by providing
a sound solid block, as less blows are
required on perfectly solid foundation
than when yielding one is used. Either
select stump of tree as described for
the first post sharpener, or take knot
ty length cut from a log, making it
about foot long and setting it on end
in the ground SO that it is only about
four inches above the surface. II few
fiat stones are placed directly undertt.
1t will make a still firmer foundation.
This forms block that is practically
unyielding and the work is much easier
by its use.

DISCOURAGED INVENTOR.
He Had a Unique Device, But There
Was a Serious Draw
back to It.

''1t is combination lawn mower and
, snow shovel; :. By simply twisting this
ism is turned into set of paddles that
literally sweep the snow to both sides Of
implements in one, together with per-
fect ease Of operation. the great saving
'I'm sorry" interrupted the manufac-
turer, ''but it will never do. Don't you
see, by the end of the summer the aver
age man is so tired of and angry with
his lawn mower that he halls the snow
shovel with joy. and by the end lof the
winter he feels just as bitter toward
the snow shovel, and is once more de-
lighted to push the lawn mower. But
if you combine the two, then he will
simply have the memory of one ever be-
fore him while he is operating the
other"
Realizing the truth of the statement,
the inventor took up his mooel and
went out, saying that perhaps he could
twist the thing around and convert it
into mop holder and dress filter for
women, as they would buy anything.

A young man sat opposite. He was
pompous in pose, correct in dress, most
dignifed in manner, and very deliberate
and exact in his conversation with the
waitress.
The mans forehead was immense. Free
quently, to give the impression Of deep
thought, he would direct attention to him
self by sweeping hmpid hand slowly
across his massive brow. He was fast
becoming offensive to the other diners.
Suddenly the billboard man paused in

SHELTER FOR FARM ANIMAL
Is the Barbwire Fence All the Protec-
ton the Stock Has in Cold
Spring Daysp

Nothing looks more ABSURD IHdu U
see herd of cattle on stormy day
seeking shelter behind barbwire
fence. The folly OF this method becomes
more apparent when we remember that
such treatment demands large guam
tity of feed. Animals that receive no
shelter require more feed than those
protected from the severe freezing
weather of winter.
A good shed or shelter for cattle will
save at least one-half the feed bill and
the cattle will do better. Some stock
feeders are of the opinion that building
sheds for their cattle is a useless ex-
pense. do not think SO, and believe
every fair-minded man will agree with
me when say that a shed will more
than pay for itself in one or two win
ters in the amount of feed it will save
for the average stockman.
In order to keep stock In thriving
condition we must maintain the AMI
NAL heat, declares the Orange Judd
Farmer. This is done by feed and as
a matter Of fact more feed is necessary
in winter than in summer to maintain
the necessary animal heat. Now the
question arises can this heat be main
tanned by feed, and II this be true,
great saving can be effected BY giving
stock the required shelter in climates
that grow more or less severe at diff
ferent times in the year. II it Is pos
sible to make this saving by providing
shelter for the cattle it is apparent
that money thus spent will prove
good investment. It has been mat
ter of much surprise to me that stock
men have not given more attention to
this subject. It is matter of busi-
ness and subject of paramount i'm
pOrtance.
