raised to prepare the soil. If the cul-
tivated crop cannot be grown it will
pay to summer fallow under the Cam
pbell system, the object being to ger
inmate and kill all weed seeds in the
surface soil, retain the moisture and
put the land into good physical condi-
ton In h early spring after sum
mer following or growing the Guilt
waited crop the land should be tho
roughly cultivated and put into the
best possible filth.
Too much preparation of the seed
bed cannot De given. AS SCOT as lam
ger of killing frost is over the soil
should be cultivated again to kill the
weeds, and the seed sown immediate
ly. Repeated trials throughout the
country nave demonstrated that it is
a waste of time and seed to sow al
falfa with a nurse crop. The grain
shades the alfalfa too much and robs
it of the moisture necessary to carry
it through the first summer. Then to
fifteen pounds OF good seed to the
acre is generally sufficient. 1t is us
ually sown broadcast and covered
with a common toothed harrow.
Perhaps the most satisfactory and
economical way to SOW it is with a
common grain drill with a grass seed
er attachment. For this purpose seed
ers should be used that have tubes
that carry the see into the hoes or
besides the discs of the drill. In dry
localities where there is little or no
danger of crusts forming on the sur
face the drill should be set to cover
the seed from one and one-Aalf to
two inches deep. In moist localities
the seed should not be covered so
deep When all of the seed is cover
ed the proper depth in this way much
less is required han when sown broad
cast.
When the alfalfa is one year old it
should be disced in the early spring
as soon as the ground is in good work
ing condition. The harrow should be
set straight enough to prevent cut
ting off tne roots of the alfalfa. Ii
should be weighted to make it crt the
depth. The worker must use
his own judgment as to weighing the
harrow, and angle at which to set the
disc and the amount of narrowing TO
he done. A tooth harrow should fol-
low the disc to smooth n pulverize
the soil.
1t may be given the same treatment
after removing a hay crop or at
any time when it has made out little
As the stand becomes older
and the roots larger the disc harrow
may be set to run deeper. AS it is
we'll established the more cultivation
better. This method of growing
alfalfa requires more time and ex-
'ense. but paying returns will be OBJ
aimed so much quicker and the alfal-
a will last so much longer il sown
cared for ia mis- way that the.
extra work is justified.

THE TIMBER SUPPLY.
Three Times as Much Timber Used
Each Year as Forests Grow.

Three Times as Much Timber Used
Each Year as Forests Grow.
Every person in the United States
is using over six times as much wood
as he would use if he were il Europe.
The country as a whole ev-
cry year between three and four times
more wood than all the forests of the
United States grow in the meantime.
The average acre of forest lays up a
store of only 10 cubic feet annually,
least 80 cubic feet in order to furnish
the products taken out of it. Since
1880 more than zoe, 200, 900 900 feet of
timber have been cut for lumber alone
including 5000, 900 900 feet of conf
ferrous timber in excess of the total
coniferous stumpage estimate of the
Census in 1880.
These are some of h remarkable
statements made in Circular 81 of the
Forest Service, which deals with the
and reviews the stunpage estimates
made by all the important authorities
A study of the circular must lead di-
rectly to the conclusion that the rate
at which forest products in the United
States ave been and are being con-
sumed is far too lavish, Il that on
ly one result can follow unless steps
are promptly taken to prevent waste
in use and to increase the growth rate

URGES CHICAGO As WEST
ERN WOOL MARKET
Publication Says the West
ern Buyers Must Be Relied Upon
to Break Alleged Buyers
Combination.

4
The Chicago Drovers' Journal in a
recent issue r~eiterates the story that
buyers for eastern wool traders and
consumers are in a combination to
hold down prices in the West. The
Journal urges the western wool buy
ers as the only relief from the co.n-
binatio1. Commenting on the alleged
combine the Journal y
During the lest two years sheep
ranchers and large fockmasters claim
of a combination among the buyers
for the big eastern dealers AID manu-
facturers to mold prices down, or
hold off in their buying until prices
settled down to suit them.
Agents of the eastern manufactur-
in season with an evident understand
ing regarding prices, n are ge1er-
ally successful in holding values
Town until the representative OF a
western house comes into the field.
If the WOO producers will take the
trouble to investigate who the men
are who have set the pace, made the
records and sustained prices the last
three ear for big clips of territory
woods they will find that Chicago
aouses are t. be credited with a
great share of it.
One of the leading wool commission
houses in America is located in Chi
cago, and the representatives of this
house are constantly buying choice
clips of wool at high prices and there
by helping to sustain prices for the
consignors of wool to their store
houses.
Aside from this Chicago is becom-
ing a market of first Importance for
wool, owing to the establishment of
wool-scouring mills, three of which
are now doing business in that line
and producing results to consignors
of wool that are most gratifying to
men VINO have felt confident that buy
ers in the country were manipulating
prices against them.
These ~woolscouring plants receive
WOOl Oh COlSIS HIHSAI lloHI
and advance a large percentage of
the cash market value, and assure
them, after securing, the best market
price that can be obtained when the
secured wool is sold direct to manu-
facturers.
This business, owing to the steady
increase of wool manufacturing and
knitting works in the West, is MAX
ing a very rapid growth. The sale of
wool by consignment in western ter
ritory is helping to build up the III
dustries of the West. These new
mills il Chicago and the factories
which they supply in various western
towns are helping to build up these
towns in western territory. They are
increasing the price of residence
property in the towns. They are eX-
banding the home markets for the
products of the farms. They are help
ing to keep more of the western mon
ey in western territory.
Every stockman knows the advan-
tage of keeping western money in
home banks. Patronage of substantial
commission houses and wool scour-
ing works in Chicago by the produc-
ers of the West is for the interest of
western farmers and western produc-
this business done for the benefit of
the wool trade and agricultural inter
ests in general.
