not be beaten as the pitchers would

AS to draft, well, they do draw a lit

stones than narrow tire, and low

Once more we take up our parable
'nd Insist on farmers making prep
lrations to make the best possible
roads they can out of the material at
hand, which is just plain dirt, and
the more clay in 1t the better.
Farmers are fooling away the great
bulk of their road taxes every year
by not using drag. The road drag
may be made out of any light wood
pine, cedar, cottonwood, soft maple,
box elder. If post or log is used 1t
should be seven feet long, about six or
eight inches thick, sawed in two
lengthwise, the two pieces put split
side foremost about three and a half
feet apart, held together by pieces of
hard wood or steel rods. A log chain
should be attached to the front and
the team hitched to it in such way
that the drag is drawn at an angle of
IS degrees. The drag should be drawn
up one side of the road and down the
other when the roads are soft. The

TIE Necessity of Putting In That
Which the Crops Take Out.

IA many OF the older agricultural
rastoas. the main question to the
farmer Is that of supplying plant fooc
for the soil. Year after year field
has been called upon to produce the
same kind Of grain, consequently the
soil has lost its productive capacity.
This land must now have food or Its
value will be naught This food must
be stored up In the soil. The farmer
thinks he cannot spare the land for
clover, but must put 1t in wheat or
corn year after year in order to get
good living from it. So crop rotation
does not appeal to him. Other meas.
ures must be adopted. Fertilizer OF
some nature must be used, and he
resorts to 1t to build up his land.
A good commercial fertilizer Is
beneficial to the soil, but nothing is
better than farm manure. The fer
tility of the well-manured land does
not pass away with the first crop,
but abides for several years. The
lasting effects of farm manure on soil
was proven at an experiment station
in England. Manure was applied to a
piece of land once each year for 20
years, then it was discontinued. Over
20 years after the last application,
larger crops of barley were secured
from this land than from land that
had never been MANFRED.
The reason many farmers do not
get the full benefit of manure is that
they allow it to remain in piles about
the barn until 1t deteriorates, or they
fail to apply 1t evenly 70 the soil
Manure should always be put on the
soil before 1t decomposes, for as 1t
decays it acts upon the mineral
particles Of the soil and changes
them into valuable plant food. An
alysis of soil by experts shows that
it often contains large quantities of
phosphorus, potassium and other ele-
ments In inactive forms. When fresh
manure is thoroughly mixed with this
soil 1t produces such change in the
mineral elements that they at once be-
come available for plant life.
1t is said that farm manure does
not contain a large amount of total
plant food, only about 80 pounds of nj
trogen, phosphorus and potassium to
the ton. It's value then is not so
much in what it contains as in its
power to operate on the mineral ele-
ments in the soil, changing them into
available plant material. Experiments
have proven that when manure is APP
piled to soil it produces 20 or 30 per
cent. of available plant food. The
products thus formed are called hui
mates.
When we come to calculate the
actual value of manure in dollars and
cents, says Farmers Voice, the re-
Of impoverished land that could pro-
duce no more than 20 bushels of corn
In favorable season is treated to five
tons of rich manure. If the season Is
suspicious this acre will now produce
40 bushels of good corn the first year.
80 cents, would bring ten dollars per
ton. Besides the land has a perma-
nent benefit, and will manifest 1t
from year to year.
The manure should always be dis.
tributed evenly. Too much in one
spot and not enough in another re-
suits disastrously. A manure spread
er is almost indispensable to the up
to-date farmer. Some farmers get along
without them. but 1t takes lot of
time and patience to properly spread
the manure.

combination with velvet, and there
are some of the most beautiful pos
sible plumes and feathers seen this

appear to be Of phenomenal length,
but close examination shows the
feathers are not grown upon ostriches
of marvellous size, but the flues or
tendrils of one are knotted to those
of another, giving exceptional breadth
to the feather. One or more Of these

Sectional View of Barn.

tration, the plan Is such that the in.
terror Of bent is left as free from
timber works as possible.
Strength of frame is given by
braces placed at either side of the
bent. Each bent should be placed in
moderate sized barn about six feet
apart. When set up they should be
carefully spiked to post and then
sided with whatever material is to be
used. In a barn of this kind, says
Prairie Farmer, it Is presumed that
the contents rest direct upon ground.
If floor is used, it is necessary to
make the frame much stronger.

team used should be the heaviest,
slowest-monng team on the farm.
The use of this will in the first place
smooth the roads down, filling up the
holes, taking off the bumps, and drag
ging little dirt to the middle of the
road. In the second place 1t will allow
the winds to blow over it and the sun
to shine on it.; and the dragged road
will be dry a day or two, and, If 1t has
many ruts in 1t, sometimes a week, be-
fore the undragged will be dry.
Do not, however, expect the drag to
do any good in sand or in muck, or
where there are stones in the road or
stumps or much grass, or where the
water stands in the bitches on either
side. The road drag, declares Wal
