THE ESSENTIAL TO
FARM FERTILITY
By H. r.. Smith, Of Nebraska
Experiment Station.

The maintenance of a high degree
Of soil fertility is fundamental prin-
ciple in successful farming. Had this
been recognized years ago and meth
DDS practiced that build rather than
deplete, much of the native fertility of
our eastern soils would have been
conserved. Live stock in the state of
Ohio began to decline in number 80
years ago and with that decline there
occurred almost Immediately decline

decd.

feeding of these crops with at least a
part of the grain grown, is our
surest preventive of soil Improvement.
1t goes without saying that this can
only be accomplished by keeping the
stock on the farm. If by feeding farm
animals no more than elevator prices
are received for the crops grown there
is still abundant reason for the prac-
tice of such system of farming. Many
do not feed stock because they are
fearful that grain thus disposed of
will sell at sacrifice. No doubt this
is true, If carelessness is displayed in
the feeding and management. With
the exercise of skill the opposite is
just as true.

coming from all stations of the middle
west, where feeding questions have
been given most consideration. Should
farmer lose by disease one animal
out of every five he would feel much
unconcerned. The equivalent of this
is happening on many farms to-day
through injudicious feeding.
If stock feeding is to be conducted
with profit there must be put into the

were alike the problem would be a
simple one. If all foods consisted OF
the natural heritage, which at one
time grew uncultivated, animals would
get for themselves more nearly what
the system requires. But the arti
fetal propagation of numerous forms
of food (some kinds produce in greater
abundance than others) has made the
economical utilization of such foods a
complex science. Nor can profitable
stock feeding be looked upon as a
science merely. 1t is a business, too,
in the sense that one who is engaged
in the work is each year confronted
with change in prices on foods,
which compels him to keep post

to to be able to select those

AFRAID OF PARALYSIS
A NERVOUS SUFFERER CURED
BY Or. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS..
The Medicine That Makes Rich, RED
Blood and Performs Wonders 40 q
Tonic for the Nerves,


Why are nervous people invariably
pale people?
The answer to that question explains
why a remedy that acts on the blood
can cure nervous troubles.
1t explains why DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are also for nervous
people.
1t is because of the intimate relation
between the red corpuscles in the blood
and the health of the nerves. The
nervous system receives it's nourishment
through the blood. Let the blood be.
come thin, weak and colorless and the
nerves are starved-the victim is started
on the road that leads to nervous wreck.
Nervous people are pale people-but the
pallor comes first. Enrich the blood
and the nerves are stimulated and toned
up to do their part of the work of the
body. DR.. Williams Pink Pills make
red blood and transform nervous, irrit-
able, ailing people into strong, energetic,
torceful men and women.

DESIRABLE FEATURES
OF A SEPARATOR
BY Psof. z. H. Van Norman.

Some Of the desirable features of a
separator are:
1. Clean skimming under a wide
range of conditions, such as warm and
cold milk, and thick or thin cream.
The skim milk from a good separator
properly run should not contain to ex-
coed one-twentieth Of one per cent. of
fat, and under ordinarily favorable
conditions should show even less than
that in the double neck test bottle.
2. Ease of washing; all parts should
be so arranged as to be easily gotten
at for Washington corners and
tubes.
3. Easy running. All machines Of
the same manufacture are not equally
easy running.
4. Durable construction.

His Honor Judge Addison, who died
this week, had once to deal with the
problem when does an egg become
stale?"
The plaintiff suggested that in sum-
mer eggs became stale "about week
after they came to market" but the
judge declared that the real test of
an eggs staleness was the moment it
became fit for use at a contested cleo
ton.
