ORCHARD, FARM AND GARDEN

Hollow with grubbing hoe to dig
out the balks.
A writer in the Rhode Island
American" in 1920, thus describes
the plow generally in asa in the
eastern states at that r:ue, known
as the Old Colony plow:
1T had 1O-foot beam and a A.
loot land side. Six of these rlows
cost me, on an average, IS to keen
the shares and coulters fit for work,
and the wear of the otne. parts
could not be less than 81 To Sc per
year for wear per plow."
The Oliver chilled plow was the
first pillow, as we know plows today.
1t made its appearance in 1870
a light, durable pillow, with c mold
board of proper shape to economic
darft and turn furrow.

Seeding to Grasses and Clover.
(By H. T. French, Director Idaho
Experiment StatiOn.)

Much interest Is being manifested
IN the possibility of growing grasses
and cloyers in the section about
Moscow and other portions of north.
ern Idaho. This matter is of special
interest at this time, xor many set.
Tiers are coming into this state from
the older states, where these crops
constitute a very important part oi
farm production.
Our experience extends over sew
ora, seasons, and we thought ii
might be of ;cterest and profit to
some to know what is being done in
this direction on the Experiment
Station farm.
We have undertaken to establish a
seeding of clovers and grasses on a
norton of the farm, and herewith
give a brief account of the results
of our work during the past season
Last April we plowed up 10 acres
of land on which wheat was grown
the year before and fitted it for the
seed by narrowing twice with 4
Gne-toothed smoothing harrow We
then sowed broadcast the following
mixture, covering six acres, leaving
the balance until later on account of
the ground being in lower portion
of the field and too wet to work:
Forty pounds common red clover.
Six pounds alsike clover.
Twenty-Five pounds orchard grass.
Six pounds meadow fescue.
Five pounds English rye grass.
Ten pounds timothy.
Four pounds tall meadow GA.
grass.
This makes 16 pounds of the mix
ture per acre. The balance of the
field was sown to the same combina-
ton, at the same rate per acre, ex-
cept eight pounds of alfalfa seed was
added to the mixture in place of the
alsike clover and timothy seed.
No nurse crop was sown with the
grass mixture. And here is where
many farmers make mistake by
sowing wheat, oats or barley with
the grass or clover. 1t is the expert
ence Of the best farmers now that it
IS not wise to sow crop of grain
with the grass seeding. The more
rapidly growing grain crop takes the
moisture away from the tender
grass and clover plants, and when
the grain is cut the hot sun burns
these plants up. The wild oat which
is so abundant in the soil in this To-
cality is quite enough of a nurse
crop and s, ion should be
given to cutting - cut of the way
when it reaches the proper stage. We
cut two crops of wild oats from our
field The first crop made fair
yield of hay. In cutting the will
oats the moving machine should be
set high enough so that it will not
cut the clover or young grass.
The last of November, when the
yield was last examined, there was a
fine stand of clover, and of all the
grasses sown, so far as we were able
to detect them. Much of the clover
headed out last season, making a
growth one foot high or more.
Unless last season was an excep-
uonally favorable one, there is NO
reason why clovers and grasses
should not be grown in the hill
lands adjoining this section.
The yield Of wheat will not be less
when the farmers learn to grow
these crops, which restore fertility
and the possibilities of diversified
farming, with stock as an importan,
FACTOR will be greatly strengthened

A TRANsF Err OF RESPONSIBILITY

The vict lry of Democracy in this
state and county will bring about
changes in the personnel of the vari-
Gus DEPART tents. In many under the
Republican regime. negroes have
found emp oyment. These employees
will probat y find no mercy because
they happe TO be black. The best
we can hoI is that their places will
be taken others of the race, who
may have und favor with the incom-
ing officials II is up to the leauers
of colored ,mocracy to make good on
behalf of th } race in the matter of Sc
curing plao IS. Colored Republicans
who did th iir best to secure such
places as v e have have had to sit
quiet under Democratic criticism that
the Republi an party was not doing
enough for US, and so now that the
responsibility for our showing IN pub
lie life is ansferred to our friends,
the enemy, We have hope that tney
Will hold al we now have and win
more. We appreciate that there is
not the sam, support given democracy
by the race as is given the Republi-
can party, ut since results, not rea-
sons, are VI at the world want, we
can only biz our colored Democratic
friends to ia ;e up the cross where we
lay II down nd fight for the advance
ment of the race with fervency and

WOMEN IN DANGER,
PART OF THE SHOW
Barnum & Bailey Understand
Human Nature. Circus Big
geSt Hit This Year

Women are by no means a small
part OF circus performance The
success Of an entertainment Of this ma
ture depends largely on the cieyerness
OF its women. A difficult equestrian
act, dangerous performance high on
a trapeze or the human intelligence
pitted against the brute instinct OF a
trained tiger are far more appealing
when the performer is a woman.
There is an unusually attractive and
skillful company of women this year
with the Barnum and Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth. First in Importance
are the La Raque sisters, doubtless
the two most daring people before the
public anywhere in the world Their
double automobile somersault act rs
pronounced as the utter extreme OF
daring and danger
The Yllerom sisters, Nettie Carroll,
the Urma sisters, Alberta, Miss Stick
ney, the Meers sisters, Julia Ship,
Miss Heuttermann, Victoria Daven-
port, Mrs. Lowando and the hundred
or so other young women concerned
in the acts of the Imperial Viennese,
the Florenz family, the Flying Fishers,
the Dollar troupe, the Navarros, the
Pachecos and Les Jardys are women
of most pronounced abilities and
beauty
Altogether it is a wonderful circus
that the Barnum and Bailey manage
ment will soon bring TO Bisbee. It
is European in personality, artistic in
every detail infinite in its variety,
and possessing the charm or great nov
city. II surpasses any previous sea-
son in size and strength. The parade
Is again part of the days exhibitions
and there is new ana ornate specta-
Gle to open the long program.
