MAKING BARN SANITARY.
Good Light, Pure Air and General
Cleanliness Essential.

Dairy experts agree that the essen
tails of a good dairy barn are plenty
of light, pure air and as little filth as
possible. There are but few barns
that cannot be transformed into rea-
sonably sanitary stables at moderate
expense.
1t is not difficult to put in extra
windows, and every stable for dairy
COWS should have windows that VIII
admit direct sunlight on bright days
and at least one 3x3-foot window
should be put in for each two stalls.
The frame must fit tight, so as to Sc
cure protection during cold weather.
Arrangements should be made for
opening these for ventilation. Make
walls tight by putting in an inside
wall of thin lumber, if necessary filling
the space between with cut straw or
sawdust.
Good ventilation can be secured in
several ways If the stable is low and

FOE OF MAcApAM ROAD.
Motor Vehicle Sweeps Roadway OF
Dust Needed for Binder.

At the present time the worst foe OF
the macadam road is, perhaps, lts
most ardent advocate-the motor We
hicle. The steel wheels of the or
binary vehicle grind off sufficient
powder from the stones to serve as
binder, replacing the binding material
blown away by winds or washed Off by
rains. 1t is usually possible when the
binder becomes deficient and the
stones in the upper course begin 10
appear and the surface grows rough,
to spread a little coarse sand in the
center of the macadam road. The sand
is soon spread by traffic over the great
err portion of the width of the macad'
am. 1t relieves the roughness and
keeps the stones from travelling. This
practice has been followed in many
sections for years. But the swiftly
moving motor car of the present day
has introduced a new problem into
road maintenance. The large rubber
tires on wheels of small diameter APP
pear to exert a suction on the binder
of the road. The vacuum caused by
the vehicle moving rapidly over the
road lifts the dust into the air in
clouds and it is blown away into the
fields.
Various substances are being ex
perimented with for application tc
road surfaces to lessen or obviate this
evil. Coal tar and oils with an as
phaltic base seem to give the best re
suits. In France tar has been used fol
several years, 1t is said, most salts

such application not only will the
roads be saved from denudation by
motor vehicles, but the ordinary sur
face repair costs will be lessened as
well.
A properly built macadam road IN
the country rarely becomes muddy
except from mud tracked upon it from
side roads built of natural soil. The
country road official is spared this
annoyance and the expense of remov
ing the mud. That they are otter
dusty can not be denied. Watering Oh

often be afforded on country roads
When properly applied, water not only

No one having had experience il
such matters will contend that a ma

not occur usually. But it is true thai
a macadam road may at moderate
expense be kept smooth, hard anC

and that these requirements can no
be met by either the earth or the

ALFALFA CULTURE.
Careful, Thorough Ground Preparation
Necessary to Successful Growth.

The ground for alfalfa should be
we'll prepared before the seed is sown.
Plow as deep as the organic content
of the soil will permit up to eight or
ten inches. Then harrow. There is
no danger of narrowing too much Best
results are obtained by blowing the
ground in the fall. Then as early in
the spring as possible go onto the
ground with disk and disk once each
week or ten days till all danger of
frost is over, then sow the seed.
If the ground has not been plowed
in the fall, it should be broken up as
early in spring as it can be done in
workmanlike manner. Harrow FIRE,
quently till the weather is warm
enough for the seed to be planted. Do
not SOW with nurse crop. Best re,
suits are attended with sowing alone
and in case the weeds get the start
of the young alfalfa, clip with NOW,
er. After one or two clippings the
alfalfa will be tall and vigorous
enough to outgrow the weeds if a
nurse crop is sown, it will take toe
much moisture from the ground, 50
that the alfalfa is injured thereby
The farmer never cuts the nurse till
it is ripe, no matter how much of an
injury it does to the tender alfalfa. II
sowed without nurse, a crop of hay
may be cut the first year.

Moral Effects of Athletics.

Aside from its physical effect, the
moral effect of athletics, in the case
of the soldier at least, is of no small
value. My experience has been tnas
men are less likely to drink in the
football or baseball season, even
though they may be addicted to the
use of intoxicants. And thus no spe
cial effort may have been made along
these lines by those in charge Of tne
sports. The class of men who 81
in for athletics and excel in sucn
contests are the most desirable sOf
diers and the best all around men
Still another advantage of athleuc'
is that good athletic teams ana m'
reputation for a post of having cnam,
pion teams draw good recruits aua
soldiers to enlist there.-Army Sul

HItching Five Horses to a Gang PIow.
this to A on the evener, using light
whifle trees for the lead team.
1t is desirable to use a three-horse
evener for the wheelers; have hole
for the clevis in the center of the
evener and the center horse will pull
against the outside ones. Such an
evener may be bought at any nipple
ment house. The clevis connecting this
three-horse evener with the 20-inch
evener at G should be a solid piece
double clevis which will hold the
three-horse evener in place and not
interfere with the chain.
If horses weigh less than 1,400
pounds each it will pay to use five
horses on a gang pillow. With them |
can pillow six acres a day easily,
whereas with four it is hard work to
lay over four acres. 1t is the last
straw that breaks the camel's back
and am in favor of unloading several
straws.
Another method of using five horses
with two in the lead is as follows
Make an evener five feet long, giving
the outside wheeler four feet and one
foot for the two teams that work
against each other with chain and
pulley.

GREEN MANURING.
Only Legumes Add More to Soil Than
Elements Taken From 1t.

Green manuring is the blowing I'm.
der of any green crop for the purpose
of getting fertility and decaying vege'
table matter into the soil. If it is de,
sired to add fertility, then some crop
must be plowed under that has in ii
some fertility that it did not take out
of the soil, for it is evident that if the
plant plowed under has in it only the
fertility that was taken out of the soil,
nothing is gained, so far as fertility
is concerned. So far as we know, up
to this time, only plants that have
pods have in them at any time more
fertility than was taken out of the
soil. Even those plants do not have
more fertility than what came out of
the soil, unless little knots are found
on the roots, which knots are known
as nodules. In these nodules are lit
tie plants called bacteria, which take
free nitrogen gas from the air and
make it into form of nitrogen that
can be assimilated by the plants.
Such plants when turned under en-
IRISH the soil by increasing it's nitrogen
content This must be understood by
every person that raises a crop to
turn under. 1t is doubtful if it pays
to turn under other crops, as in that
case the only gain to the soil is the
humus, and in many cases the soils
have in them enough humus and do
not need increased humus content.

EFFECT OF MULCH.
1t Does Not Retard Blooming of Straw
berry Plants.

No This question has been settled
for 20 years. So long as the top of
plant is exposed to sunshine and air,
so long will any mulch be impotent to
retard its developing and blooming.
If plant like strawberry plant be
kept entirely covered with the mulch,
the development will be retarded, but
in that case the plant is likely to be
destroyed by the mildews that will de.
velop
It used to be believed that placing
straw around a tree or around plant
would keep it's roots cold and thus
delay blooming. This was desired to
carry the tree or plant beyond the
time of killing frosts. But it was not
difficult to prove that the state of the
roots had nothing to do with the
time of leaving out of the tree or of
its budding. In one of the demonstra.
lions to prove this a grape vine with
its roots in the frozen ground, which
was also covered with snow, was car
ried into a greenhouse and exposed to
the light, heat and sunshine. The
leaves came out as usual, though the
roots could not supply moisture. OF
course the exhaustion of the moisture
in the vine resulted in its destruction.
A tree or a plant can be kept back
from blooming only by covering it and
thus protecting 1t from the influences
that cause it to bring forth leaves and
blossoms. The first activities of a
tree or plant come from energy stored
up in the form of starch from the
food taken the previous year.

Ventilation of stahla

If your stable is ventilated only
from above, you are drawing off the
warm air, which means loss to the
COWS in comfort, and loss of. the nur.
est air. Foul air must be drawn off nm
a level with the stable floor, for bad
ar is much heavier than good air
When the cows lie down and the yenti.
lation is poor, they breathe foul air
1t has its effect on the COWS as well
as on the product.

March being the accepted month.
There is manifest tendency among
the most advanced fruitmen to do
more summer pruning and less spring
pruning. 1t is also quite plain that
those who are not real experts in or
chard matters are apt to overdo the
spring work with the pruning saw. If
pruning is carefully and conservative
ly done every March from the time
the trees are planted out, 1t may be
considered safe operation. The ex-
cessive pruning of neglected trees at
this time of year, on the other hand,
is apt to be more of a damage than a
benefit, says the Country Gentleman.
Under present circumstances, we
have to recognize the fact that March
