NEW SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
Former Governor Hughes OF New
York as He Looks In His
official Robes.

Former Governor Hughes OF New
York, in spite OF his distinguishing
cut of beard, looks the part of a SUI
preme judge, and the general opinion
in official Washington is that the
robes OF his new position are most
becoming to him.
II was quite a gala day in the SUI
preme court when he took the oath
OF Office and sat upon the bench in
the old courtroom, which is a good
deal of bandbox for size, and the
wives Of all the justices and their
daughters and friends were in the
seats reserved for them.
When the gavel of the court crfer
fell the procession of justices, headed
by Marshal Wright of the district en-.
tered the chamber from the robing
room. Governor Hughes, wearing the
robe of rich black silk, took a seat
Just below the bench next to the
clerk. Mr. Justice Harlan, who Is
the senior associate Justice, will pre-
side over the Supreme court until the
successor of Chief Justice Fuller is
appointed by the president and con
firmed by the senate. Justice Harlan
directed the clerk to read the com

DISK PREVIOUS TO FLOWING
Surface Mulch OF Soil Retains Moist
ure and Offers Surface to
Absorb Rains.

In order to secure the ideal con-
ditions for termination a seed bed
for wheat or other small gram or
grasses should not be too deep and
mellow and yet finely pulverized or.y
about as deep as the seed is planted.
Below the depth at which the seed
Is planted the soil should be firm, but
not hard. making good connection
with the subsoil so that the soil wa
ter may be drawn up into the surface
soil. The firm soil beneath the seed,
being well connected with the sub
soil, supplies the moisture to the seed.
The mellow SOIL above the seed allows
sufficient circulation of air to supply
oxygen and favors the warming OF
the soil, gathering the heat of the
sunshine during the day, acting as
blanket to conserve the soil heat
and maintaining more uniform
temperature in the soil during the
night
1t is often a good plan to disk
the ground previous to blowing. says
Field and Farm If plowed at once
ton to more readily connect and re-
unite with the subsoil when the fur
row slice is inverted and If the plow-
ing Is delayed the ground will re-
main In good condition for blowing
for a much longer period during the
dry weather than land which has re-
ceived no cultivation. 1t is often

come too dry to pillow, by establishing
soil mulch with the disc harrow and
retaining the water in the soil, to so
improve the moisture condition of the
surface as to bring it again into good
blowing condition.
II may even be advisable to prac.
tise early disking rather than early
plowing when both cannot be accom-.
plished The surface mulch of soil
produced by disking not only retains
the water in the soil but offers a
favorable surface to absorb the rains.
A new method for preparing the seed
bed is now coming into general prac'
tise here on the plains. The plan is
to list the ground with an ordinary
corn lister as soon after harvest as
possible. The lister burrows are run
from three to three and one-half feet
apart very much the same as when
the lister is used for planting corn.
Later, when the weeds have sprouted
the soil is worked back into the lister
burrows by means Of disk harrow or
disk sled
The disk sled has just recently be-
gun to be used for this purpose and
is considered preferable to the har-
row. 1t has extra large disks, especi-
ally for this purpose, but may be used
also for cultivating corn. The sleds
are made either for one or two rows.
Several civilizations are usually re.
quired by the disk harrow in order to
bring the field in good seed bed con
dition. Once over with the disk sled
is usually considered sufficient the
further work necessary to prepare the
seed bed Is given with the common
harrow or other cultivating imple-
ment. In our dry climate this method
has several advantages.

DAIRY NOTES.
Keep a COW, she's a winner.

Keep a COW, she's winner
High ceilings and plenty of light are
the price of good health In the dairy.
Never offer a pound of poor butter
for sale. Better take 1t right out and
bury it in the back lot.
Save some of the oats to grind for
the mich cows. You never will find
better grain to make milk.
Glover bloat can usually be prevent.
ed by keeping the calf off the clover
when 1t is wet from dew or rain.
Make good job of washing the
separator. One time of neglect may
cost you the price OF a churning.
The grain for calves should be fed
first while the calf is quite small with
a little bran to aid In learning to eat.
Sell every COW that you suspect of
soldering on you, and do it now, be-
fore you have fed out lot of high
priced feed
The farmer who keeps a COW for
the profit she may bring should know
what the cost Is to keep her, as well
as the income.

is the slip-shod way that causes so
much poor butter to be sent to mar
ket
The old COW knows better how to
color butter than you do. Let her take
that part of the work. Throw the
bottle of bogus color as far as you
can send It,
Farmers and feeders would do well
to pay more attention to the root
crops In their attempt at getting the
ideal feeding ration. both for beef and
dairy cattle.
Utensils used for milk should be
rinsed with cold water and then with
boiling water, thoroughly drained and
allowed to become cold before being
filled with milk
When COW once falls off in milk
production It is more difficult to bring
her back to her full flow than to 50
feed her as to keep her as near her
capacity as possible.
Don't put on the dirtiest old clothes
you can find to milk 1t. Have nice
clean suit and keep 1t so. To help
about that, brush the cows off every
time before you sit down to milk

The expenditures during the past

Governor Young reports that the
general sanitary condition of the home

has been no prevalent or epidemic
