MEADOW DALE ITEMS,

Ed. Recorder:
Did you have good time at the
show? And did you "speak a lit
tie piece" OH Children's Day?
Misses Mary Cash and Cornella
Warwick, accompanied by Clinton
and Kenneth Bird--'Dutch" and
"Abe" bravely bringing up the
rear-passed by Saturday after
noon on their way to Lee Gum S,
at Vanderpool.
Quite a number of our people at
tended court this week.
Miss Mary Kate Campbell, OF
Warm Springs, is visiting friends
in Highland.
Mrs. Marietta Gum isnow absent
on avisit to friends in West Virgin
ia. Her sister, Mrs. j. w. Wallace,
is housekeeper during her absence.
Miss Rhoda Shultz has returned
home after prolonged absence in
Parkersburg.
DR.. NJ. B. Campbell was hastily
summoned to see Ezra Carroll on
last Friday morning He had been
bitten by what was supposed to be
copper head snake. The bite did
not prove to be of a serious nature.
The house and about all of the
household effects of Martin Smith,
near Little Egypt were burned
short time ago. The fire was dis
covered some time during the night
and the family had but little more
than time to escape with their
lives Mr.. Smith is a quiet and
Woodworking citizen on the shady
side of life, now. Who will be the
first to lend him help in this time
of need?
Mr.. and Mrs. w. P. Campbell
gave a very interesting party on
last Friday evening to the young
folks of Valley Center and vicinity.
We don't know whether c. G. Ar
bogast counts himself one of the
"young folks" or not. Anyway,
he saws "the young girls all like to
be with me-" Henry Herold and
sister, Miss Margie, of West Virgin
i ia, were among the guests.
Joe Chestnut and his mother met
with an accident that might have
been serious while on the road a
few DAYS ago. 1t was due to the
much-dreaded automobile. 1t seems
that their horse became frightened
and the top was torn from their
buggy. 1t would be great relief
to the public if there were stated
days or hours for running the mur.
dering machine better still, II
the parties would show consldera,
ton enough for the public to send
an announcement ahead by wire
when they will be on the roads
with an automobile. This little
measure would cost no trouble and
be the means of preventing many
accidents, and, possibly, fatal ones
Several ladies of our neighbor'
hood enjoyed a pleasant social day
and a nice dinner at the home Of
Mrs. w. N. Bird, on Saturday, the
Occasion being an old-fashioneo
"wool picking.' We regret that the
old-time customs are fading ant
fear that much of the olden-tlmt
hearty feeling and good will are 60
ling with them. AcHANGE.

the seed is put where 1t can grow to
the best advantage. Glover has bet
ter chance in drilled grain. The drill
should be run north and south. SO that
the sun can shine in between the rows
on the little clover plants.
Harvesting the Crop.
Preparation for harvest should ba
made by having the binder in perfect
running order beforehand. If oats are
not cut as soon as ripe they will al
most surely go down and be lost.
Great care should be taken in shocking
to see that the bundles stand up 6rm-
ly. If the straw is not too green the
shocks should be capped, as a capped
shock will shed rain better. A shock
that stands up straight and Is well
capped will shed great deal of rain
without wetting In much. 1t is much
better to stack than to thrash out Of
the shock. The oats will sweat some
where, and they will be Of better quail
ity If they do 1t in the stack instead
of in the bin. 1t has been proved many
times over that there Is nothing to be
gained by thrashing oats from the
shock. Oats that have been permitted
to 60 through tile sweating process In
we'll protected stack are always Of
better quality than those which have
been hurried into the thrasher.

the hull when the oat is In bloom ana
the kernel open. When the hull closes
the spore Is held inside until the next
season. when 1t sprouts and sends
thread up through the stem to the
head There the smut grows. produc-
ing black mass where the head
should be. Often MS many as Is per
cent of the heads will be affected In
this way. These black heads are not
easily noticed. so that the damage is
usually underestimate.
The simplest method of treatment Is
to spread the oats out on tight floor
and sprinkle them with solution of
one pound of formalin to forty gallons
Of water. This amount is sufficient
for forty bushels of oats Shovel the
oats over two or three times until they
are thoroughly wet, and then pile them
up and cover them with blankets or
sacks. The fumes from the formalin
will penetrate beneath the hull and
kill the smut spores. In the morning
the oats should be spread out again
and shoveled over occasionally until
that case the seeder should be set to
SOW about bushel to the acre more,
as they do not run through as readily.
This work should be done on warm
day, as freezing while the oats are wet
will injure the termination. This treat
ment costs only about cent bushel
and is very effective.
Preparing the Seed Bed.
One of the most neglected points in
oat culture is the preparation Of the
seed bed Oats do better on rather
firm seed bed II the field was In corn
sary to pillow unless the ground ia very
hard. 1t should be disked thoroughly,
however, to cut up the stalks and pull
verize the upper two or three inches.
1t will usually be profitable to let the
disk Flap half" as this does away
with ridges and leaves the land In
better shape. One narrowing after the
disking leaves the ground in splendid
shape to receive the seeds
Methods of Seeding.
There are several methods of seed
Ing, Of which the end gate seeder Is
the worst and the disk drill the best
The two main objects in seeding are
to get the seed In evenly and at ap-
proximately the same depth. The end
gate seeder fultills neither Of these re-
quirements The broadcast seeder scat
ters the seed evenly. but 1t is covered
no better than with the end gate seed
er since both depend upon the disk for
covering The disk drill Is more ex-
pensive and does not get over the
ground as rapidly, but 1t distributes
the seed evenly and puts 1t at the
same depth. The seed is dropped in
burrows made by the disks and thor
oughly covered. SO that one narrowing
is all that is necessary after drilling.
Experiments show considerable ad,
vantage in yield in favor of the disk
drill.
At the Iowa station the average OF
four years experiments showed nine
bushels to the acre in favor of drilling
over broadcasting. From half bush
ell to bushel less seed to the acre Is
required when drill is used, as all
