The Use Of the Manure Spreader.

Most farmers believe that the greatest
value to be derived from a manure
srreader is in the saving of labor. AS a
matter of fact, this is only one of the adj
vantages offered by the use of such an
implement. Another advantage which
even more important in many ways is
the fact that manure scattered evenly
and rather thin over a wide area will
give very much more return per ton than
where scattered irregularly and on the
thinner places as is usually done wlie,
distributed from a wagon. This ill.,
creased return is due to the fact that
there is less loss in fermentation when
put IN thinly, and also to the fact, that
a considerable share of the value of MA
uure comes from the addition of bene.
fetal bacteria to the soil, SC that when
,iis takes place over a wide area it is
much more beneficial Than when limited
10 a small area.
Another reason why the manure
spreader is advantageous is because a
mai who has his money invested in an
implement Of this sort will take better
care Of the manure on the farm. He
" II not allow it to lie around and leach,
b t will get it back OIL to tho fields where
i, should he placed.
The very best way of handling manure
is to haul it out day by day, or week by
seek, as it is made if this can be done.
Many farmers think that manure applied
i, this way will lose its value before the
II xt crop is grown on the land, but ex.
riments show that there is very little
H. this case unless the land is very roll
g.
The next method of handling manure,
i to feed under an open shed where the
manure is kept tranlped down compactly
through the feeding season and then
h.uled during the summer at a leisure
time. Manure kept compacted in this
way under cover, loses very little. OF
course, the practice Of feeding the ami
mails directly on the fields is II good one,
bu, the difficulty is in getting the ma
nure scattered over the whole field. The
scattering is too often confined to a small
sheltered feeding ground.
Farmers should understand more
thoroughly the advantages to be derived
from the use of a manure spreader and
every farm of one hundred acres or over,
where cattle are fed around the build
ings, should not be without ,hns maple
ment.

w. c. Markham, editor Of the
Baldwin Ledger, lectured to ,he class
in Journalism 81 the University Of
Kansas this week on the subject,
"Running q Newspaper in sCoun-
try town" cit is harder" he said,
to run a good country newspaper
than to hold down a good job on a
big city daily. II is better to be your
W boss than to be a small cog in a
large wheel and always remain that
cog" He told of the usual work
that is necessary to keep a country
newspaper going. The country edi-
tor is supposed to be cosmopolitan,
to know a little OF everything and a
whole lot of most things. Mr.. Mark
ham said that the old political preju-
dices of the country newspaper are
giving way to more liberality, and
that the editor now makes the politi-
clans pay for their advertisements.
.'You can't run a country newspaper
on an S-nour schedule" continued
the Baldwin editor. "Don't be
afraid to work a little overtime.
The country editors chief labor is &c
elevate the home, to work for the
betterment of the community and o
the Nation. He must take a firm
stand behind public improvement
and other commendable activities"

When is q man best Intellectually

what Is required of him. A prize fight
