There must be proper balance OF
air and water to have the soil work
20 on. Exclude either and there Is
failure. Soil work Is stopped when
the soil becomes SO dry that the water
films around the soil particles are de-
stroyed. Then Is when the plant food
ceases to be elaborated. and what
plant food there Is in the soil Is no
longer carried to the roots of the
plants.
Great losses in crops are annually
recorded because these simple funda-
mental facts are not fully understood.
There must be a balance. Drainage
will often do much to bring about a
good condition of aeration Of soil; but
in some soils something else Is needed.
Thus a sandy soil that is so light that
the moisture film soon disappears to
a depth of a foot or more will pro-
duce nothing. In such a case other
things must be incorporated with the
sand Of the soil, such as muck, lime,
humus, fertilizer, to give 1t the power
to retain the moisture film.

DairyinK In Winter.

There are many advantages inl nav
Ing cows come fresh in winter, when
all dairy products sell at a high price.
In many places the price OF butter
Is from 25 to 80 per cent higher IN
winter than in summer.
When the cows calve In the spring
they generally milk well until the pas
lures dry up, when the flow OF milk
quickly falls of, SO that by the time
stable feeds begin the cows are almost
dried up. Now, II the cows come fresh
in the fall. they produce good flow
Of milk during the winter months,
and in the spring, when they are
turned on the grass, this acts as a
second freshening and thus lengthens
the period OF milk production.
Another distinct advantage in win
ter dairying Is that during this sea-
son the farmer Is not so busy with
other work, consequently he can give
more time to the care of the cows
the milk and the cream than Is possi-
BILE during the busy season OF the
year. When winter dairying becomes
more generally practiced, the subject
Of winter feeds will be given more at
tention. OF these silage IS one Of the
most important, since one acre Of good
silage material will yield as much feed
as three acres Of pasture.

WastefuI EcOnOmX,

The number of people Is small, we
believe, who, knowing that through
their fault some mistake Of an inJurl'
Gus nature has been made, would want
only to attach the blame to innocent
parties. This is generally done
thoughtlessly and ignorantly, albeit IN
good faith. The idea Is to examine
ourselves and methods before condemn
ing another.
A patron Of Wisconsin creamery
recently sent in some vigorous pro-
tests against Its products. 1t tran
spired that the creamery was not In
the wrong. except SO far as the man

irons Of the creamery. Several or
them had thoughtlessly turned their
herds into cabbage, rape and turn1p
patches Immediately after the first
heavy frosts, and the milk thus tainted
was sent In, with the result Of causing
inferiority in the creamery's output
Aside from the fact that we should

be the means of producing gr~Q1Rr de-

New Corn Feeding.

Not all farmers appreciate the value
of feeding new corn. When handled
properly more good results can be OBJ
tanned from 1t than from any other
crop grown. When fed In the green

In the mill. till they become hard and

corn. There Is no feed much better
for fattening horses and colts, as well
as cattle, than new corn.
We always plant some very early,
medium and the patches of corn to be
cut and fed whole in late summer and
fall. In this way we have the best
of feed for the stock in August, Sep

Skim MIX.

At the West Virginia experiment
station it has been found that skim
milk for feeding laying hens is worth
from IL to cents quart. Other
experiments have fully proved that 1t
has equally as great value for feed
ing pigs.
Figuring at this rate, the milkman
who sells whole milk Is selling from
so to 80 cents worth of skim milk to
each can, and the general market
prices Of a can Of milk Is close around
$1.25. Now, this can Of milk contains
enough cream to make four pounds
OF butter, which is worth about ST.
leaving only about 25 cents for the
skim milk sold, or loss OF from 35
to 55 cents on each can over making
the cream into butter and feeding the
skim milk Also, when the milk is
fed on the farm more fertilizer is
made. which makes the difference
still greater in favor of keeping and
feeding the skim milk.
Where Inc can secure select trade
for whole milk at extra price 1t will
pay to sell the whole milk and buy
extra feeds and fertilizers, but sell.
ing whole milk at less than 81 for a
40-quart can Is not profitable when
one considers the future Of the land
on which he Is dairying.

Keeping Sweet Potatoes.

There are several different methods
for storing and keeping sweet potatoes
which have proved successful. Po-
tatoes, when first dug, have a large
amount OF moisture in them, which
must evaporate. When the weather Is
good they should be left out in the
field until this evaporation is COM
plete: otherwise the moisture and the
intense heat generated by their drying
In a hill will cause rot. When this Is
not possible they should be piled. loose
~ In a dry house for a week or two.
They may then be stored in the loft
OF a building or in a room, where the
temperature will be such that they do
not freeze.
