LAND DRAINAGE,
Results Of Investigations by Wiseon.
sin Experiment Station.

OF all the conditions which influence
the growth, of crops none is more i'm
portant than the amount of moisture
in the soil. While water is absolutely
essential to plants, an excess is as bad
as deficiency
There are two kinds of conditions
which require drainage: first, land
which is wet or marshy, because it is
too fiat to allow surface drainage;
second, land which has sufficient slope
to give good surface drainage but which
on account of the large amount of
vegetable matter or humus it contains
and OF its impervious clay subsoil,
does not have good undertakings.
The lack of drainage in the first
case is readily seen and understood,
but the Importance of drainage in the
second case is not generally recog
n1zed, although it's benefits are as
great as in the cases of marshes.
Replies from 129 assessors, selected
at random throughout the state, show
that there are 1S2,191 acres of land in
their townships which are practically
worthless for agricultural purposes be-
cause of lack of drainage. This is over
100 acres per township, at which rate
there are bat 100000 acres in the
entire state of this class of land. Then
there are at least 100000 acres Of
marshy land which are only partially
productive on account of too much
surface water to allow proper cult
walton. In addition to this, there
are at least 100000 acres of up
land clay soil which require under
drainage to allow it to produce max
imum crops.
We believe that the thorough
drainage of this four and half mil
one hundred million dollars.
In the case of tile drainage of clay
land already under cultivation, the
increase in yield varies from Is to
SO per cent. This is a net profit on the
cost Of drainage, since there is no in
crease in expense of cultivation of the
land. In fact, it. is easier to work
drained land than undrained land. Ex-
perience shows that drainage usually
pays for itself in from two to four
years. Considered in detail, the ben
fits from drainage are as follows:
(a) Allows cultivation of land other
wise not available for farming.
(b) Allows earlier working in spring
(c) Allows the soil to warm up
more rapidly in the spring, thus
increasing the length Of the sea-
son and lessening the danger of
frost.
(d) Produces good ventilation and
filth in the SOIL
(e} Increases the amount of water
available to crops.
(f) Aids nitrifcation, retards deni-
triication.
(g) Lessons surface washing.
(h) Allows fields to be made uni
form in outline and hence worked
to better advantage.

ly. well, what lis the trouble? Is
/ it possible we are down to a point
where the stock exchange rushes

They saw his bluff. You cannot de-
ceive stock exchange men, at least
not the kind that Bob BROMLEY en-
ployed on panic days, but his COOL
ness treasured them, and when they
saw me it was odds-on that they
guessed to a man why Bob had ig.
nored his wires-guessed that I had
been pleading for the life of "the
street."
We'll, where do you stand?"
Frank Swan answered for the
crowd: '<The panic is in full swing.

UTILIZE EVERY ACRE.
Unused Spaces on the Farm Should
Be Put to Some Profitable Use.

On many Of our farms are to be
found considerable tracts of land that
have never been utilized, though com.
posed of good soil. Frequently the
land is so low that the water has kept
It out of use. In other cases the land
is of such rolling nature that it has
been allowed to remain in stumps and
underbrush, while in still other cases
trees Of no particular value have been
allowed to grow on it. Such land
could have been brought into a condi-
ton of produce paying crops, but the
farmer has had all the land he cared
to use and could buy more land at a
small price.
But the rapid rise in price of land
during the past few years has made it
advisable for the farmer to look about
him and see what he may do to make
every acre on his farm productive.
The easiest land to bring into the
service of the farmer is the land that
is simply wet. Draining is a simple
operation where the land is enough
o4OpAA6 W 6AS0 q 6OOU WdC0T ldll, anu
this is the case with most of this wet
land, although there are many excep-
lions.
It will cost money to put in tile, but
II the tile is properly laid and on a
good foundation it will be an invest
ment that will be paying a large in.
terest years hence as well as at the
present time. Well laid tile is one Of
the most satisfactory ways of in
vesting money, says Farmers Re-
view, for the tile, being under
ground, will remain in it's position and
is out Of the way of injury, if it be
below the frost. Money invested in
buildings may disappear in smoke. If
It is invested even in the bank it may
disappear in a collapse of the bank,
but mother earth protects the money
that is invested in tile. The draining
land very frequently doubles in pro-
ductive capacity.

BETTER FEED, BETTER MEAT.
A Very Close Relationship Exists Be
tween Feed and Flavor in Pork.

But few farmers think of the in.
f1uence Of feeding on the quality Of
the bacon or pork. It is WE'LL
known fact that mast" makes soft,
oily bacon, as do peanuts and other
light feeds. Corn is not always best
for an exclusive diet, but if pig has
been kept growing and has had plenty
of good pasture till it is six months
old and weighs say $50 to 200 pounds,
it will be we'll to feed it on corn alto
gether till another 100 pounds is
gained. After pig is fat it is best
to finish off by feeding a mixed ration
of skim milk and oats or barley for
few weeks before butchering Skim
milk has tendency to make the pork
more firm, as has likewise both oats
and barley. Pigs that have not had
proper pasturage while growing will
not make as good bacon as those that
have been properly cared for, declares
Farmers Voice. Before the subject
Of curing bacon is touched it is we'll
to look SO far ahead as the growing
of 1.-THE pig.

Time to begin to corn the pigs.
During 1906 $685. 900 pounds of
flower bulbs were exported from the
Netherlands.
Corn is best suited to animals at
plain, steady work. It's supply should
be limited with colts and growing
horses, because of It's lack of ash and
potash.
Orchard grass is an excellent pas
ture plant when properly managed, but
is not SO nutritious or palatable as
blue grass, although it furnishes more
grazing during the season and also
ranks high for nutritive qualities.
Have you ever wrestled with 4
stubborn lid of a fruit jar? There
is no need to do it when once you
know how to remove it. With q

the glass; after that a child can un-

Nodules on clover are all right;
they help tho plants to grow and be
profitable. But lice and mites on
hens and chicks don't work that way;
just the opposite. Plenty of sifted
