The indirect benefits of dairying.
through the return to the soil of
the straw and manure produced
on the farm, are much larger
than we ordinarily think.
The average load of barnyard
manure is worth not far from $3.50
a ton, reckoned in the market
prices one would have to pay for
the nitrogen, phosphorus and pot
ash contained.
Rotted manure will give much
quicker results, but in rotting
much of the value has been lost.
This is especially true of the
nitrogen.
The best way to handle manure
is to haul it direct from the barn
to the field, and spread over five
acres will give larger results than
ten loads spread over one acre.
One Of the main objects of man.
uring is to get back into the soil
a large amount of vegetable mat.
ter. and for that reason we cannot
afford to burn the straw that we
produce. An acre Of wheat land
will yield not far from a ton of
straw, and a ton on the basis of
fertilizer values, is worth about
1928 to $3.50.
In other words the man who
burns his straw piles from q
quarter section field sends up in
smoke the cost Of five first class
dairy cows. Or the straw piles Of
the quarter would educate his boy
at a farm school. It would buy
him a fair team Of horses. With
it he could pay the grocery bills Of
a large farm for the year.
We want the straw back into
the soil in part to enrich it. and
in part to make it hold water bet.
ter. Soil that has lost its vege'
table matter easily dries out, and
becomes what we farmers know
as dead soil. The working back
into the soil of this straw manure
is one Of the most important
things before the farmer, and ir
no way can he so easily do it as by
keeping stock in sufficient number:
to pick it over, tramp it down, anc
reduce it to manure.
There are several things to be

Freight is again moving on the

notified Tuesday to accept any
and all kinds of merchandise for
transportation. This would indi-
cate that the backbone of the
switchmen's strike has been brok.

and both are confident of winning.
For just about a week hardly a
freight car entered or departed
from the city, and ours was no
exception to the general rule.
The road has imported strike
breakers from the east, and so far,
there has been very little violence.

the accident Mr.. Simms was
standing in the middle of the
street with his back to the on COM
ing automobile, and being very
much interested in horse which
he had raised and which was
being driven in jumper ahead OF
him, did not notice the autom obile
until it was nearly on him, when
he became excited and started in
one direction to get out of the
way, and then turned back when
the automobile struck him, DR..
Smith at the same time was doing
all he could to avoid colliding with
Mr.. Simms. DR.. Smith immedi-
ately after the accident stopped
his machine and examined Mr..
Simms and found that his leg was
broken and took him to his SAM

SEATTLE, Aug. 3.-Minnesota
celebrated her day at the Alaska

a bronze bust of her most
distinguished citizen, James J. Hill,
the railroad builder.
John A. Johnson, Governor of the
state, came to Seattle to deliver the
Minnesota day address and unloose

Britain and the United States.
Besides the governor. and his staff

made a long journey to the fair to
participate in Minnesota day glory.
The bust of Mr.. Hill rests upon a

and therefore would be reduced to
twenty per cent ad valorem. In the
Brown letter the president is said
to have added a rather sharp
criticism of the legislators constantly
finding jokers. !"
Appeals were made to both senat-
tors to support the conference report.
The western senators declare the pres
ident is in error, both as to the hides
from which the farmers shoes are
made and concerning harness.
After the westerners had departed
the conferees discussed means of
meeting the situation. Representative
Mccall opposed applying lower rates
on boots and shoes to products other
than those which would be affected
by the abolition of the duty on hides.
Others argued that the westerners
had been embarrassed by the mis-
understanding to such an extent that
they could not be expected to give
their support on terms other than
those generally understood at the
time it was agreed to make hides
free.
Out of the discussion there was
developed a compromise which 1t is
said will beesEcfeptableassand pass
muster on Thursday.
