Winter Weeat

Winter wheat has several advan-
tages over spring wheat, and 1t should
receive careful consideration from
farmers who live In localities where
it can be successfullylgrown.
II planted at the right time, winter
wheat will make some growth in the
fall, and is ready to begin again In
the spring rs soon As conditions are
favorable. The growth In the cool,
moist spring favors the production Of
more vigorous plants with abundant
stools. Its early maturity permits 1t
to escape much of the hot, dry wealth.
er which often Injuries spring wheat,
and does away with considerable
weed trouble by getting the start Of
the weeds and being cut before many
Of them are ripe.
Winter wheat often escapes grass
hoppers entirely, when the spring-v va
rieties on the same farm will be ser
iousiy damaged, II not almost entire
ly destroyed.
Winter wheat assists In a more I'M
form distribution Of the labor on
farm. 1t is planted and harvested
before most other crobs need atten-
ton. Being out of the way in the
spring 1t permits of the earlier plant
ing of spring crops. which is decid-
ed advantage in localities with unfa-
vorable summer climatic conditions

ufacture of the best grades Of -four.
They usually give higher yield
per acre than spring wheats grown
in the same locality.
Turkey Red and Kharkov, a Turk
ish red type, are the leading Colorado
winter 'wheats. the latter giving
somewhat greater promise than the
former.
They are usually planted from the
middle to the last of September al
though under favorable conditions
they have been planted somewhat
earlier and later than this with good
results.
The seed should be drilled on a
well-prepared but flrmly-packed seed
bed, about two to three inches
deep, at the rate Of about seventy
five pounds per acre, under irriga-
tion, and about forty pounds per acre
for arid conditions.

Dissemination of Weather Forecasts and
 Special Warnings

Through the cooperation of the Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone Company with the Weather Bureau, U. $. Depart ment of Agriculture, the daily weather forecasts covering the 36 hour period ending at D. m. of the following day and the special warnings of cold waves, floods, etc, will be disseminated over the lines of that company on and after August 15, 1910. This information may be had by every patron of the company, whether a city or a rural su ubscriber, with in two hours after it's issue.
 There will be about 90 points of distribution in Arkansas from which several hundred rural tele- phone lines will extend into re- mote districts.
 City subscribers may obtain the forecasts and warnings by calling the long distance opera. tor of this exchange at any hour during the day after 10 a. m., <, central time. Rural subscribers will be called up about noon each day by a long ring from their op- orator who will then announce the forecasts to all subscribers simultaneously.
 The reports will also be dis played at all exchanges receiving them in their waiting room or other appropriate place, for the benefit of the public.
 It is difficult to estimate the value of this service to the rural population, whose everyday af- fairs depend so much upo n weather conditions, and by it the telephones will be made doubly useful to the patrons of the com pany.

Sparrows klii Turkeys.

English sparrows kill turkeys ID Rhode Island. according to Dr Philip B. Hadley. They convey the black lead" disease, whose fatal prevalence among turkeys Is threatening the ruin of turkey farming in the state Dr Hadley says that poultry. generally game birds. and some wild song birds, have the amoeba or coccidium which causes the disease. l so why he lays all the blame to .c English sparrow does not quite appc"v gnless because the little pest has e4 led so bad name on other acco ut5. The British grouse are troubles in way similar to the turkey. And the seri. ousness of the case is illustrated by Dr. Hadley in the statement that whereas 30 years ago Block island alone used to send out more than 40. 900 pounds year, the turkeys now raised there can only be counted by doyans.
