MoAB's ISOLATION COMPLETE
Dwellers in Eastern Paiestine Have
Always Been Distlnct-Abyss
Is Barrier.

Most travellers who visit the Holy
Land content themselves with a visit
to that restricted part west of Jor-
dan The mountainous regions OF
Moab as seen by them from Jerusalem
are lost in the purple haze that CON
stantly hangs over them and the
great stretches beyond are covered in
mystery. This is true partly because
OF the fewer historical incidents con,
nectcd with the eastern regions, but
mainly on account Of the great abyss
of the Jordan Valley that has always
acted as a barrier Few who descend
into the valley, 1900 feet below sea
level. undertake to climb the hills be
yond. which rise to a height of 5000
feet
The most striking thing about
Moab has always been its isolation.
However much connected by race and
vicinity with their western kinsmen,
the jewellers in eastern Palestine have
always been distinct. and their lands
have never been occupied by the ma
tiont on the west except through acts
Of aggression and conquest
Even ,day this isolation is still
felt. In giving an a of their knoTl
edge Of present-day geography one Of
them remarked; There are only -four
seas IN the world, two Of which are
the Dead sea and the Sea of Galilee.'
Both OF these are In sight of their ow
hills.-Chrietian Herald

That Audrain county is a great
corn growing center as we'll as a

ginning TO be known In a dispatch
from Columbia. Saline is shown as
the leading corn growing county "a
Missouri with 6,S3S. 092 bu. Au-
drain is among the leading counties
with 4,645, 72S bu.
The year 1910 has been one of
prosperity fol. Missouri farmers and
shown BY the December crop re-
port on corn, wheat and bats.
This report. issued by I. c. VIII
son, secretary Of the Missouri State
Board Of Agriculture, shows that
the States corn yield amounts to
550,eee carloads Of 500 bushels
each, or 10000 train loads, each
train containing twenty-five load
ed cars.
These trains, II placed on a single
track so that each engine MOuln
touch the caboose in front Of It,
would extend from the Atlantic to
the Pacific oceans, and in addition
fill a side track as long as from
st. Louis to Kansas City.
1t is also a matter of pride for
Missourians to know that this years
corn yield in only one-half the
counties in the State equals the to-
tai number of States and Territor.
les in the Union.
One Missouri county alone pro
duced more corn this year than did

divided into equal parts one Of which

The division was made for the pur-
pose Of testing tile drainage and the
result Of the experiments is note-
worthy.
In 1907 eow2eas was the crop. the
tiled tract produced $500 lbs. and
the surface drained tract, 5000 lbs:
In 1908 corn was the crop and the
tiled tract produced 2s bushels more

was oats and the tiled land produced

SEED WILL
DOUBLE THE CROP
THE EXPERTS SAY

washington, Q III.
1t Is only a matter of a few
years before 1t will be possible TO
double the present average productio
Of corn to the acre in the United
States. in the belief Of C. P. Hartley,
psychologist in charge of corn in
designations OF the bureau Of plant
industry. This may be accomplished
without increasing the work or ex'
pense, says Mr.. Hartley.
Mr.. Hartley suggests three ways by
@hsch farmers would be able praeti-
cally to double the present produc'
ton Of an acre. These are improve
ment In the quality of the seed plant
ed, Improvement in the con
dftion Of the soil and
Improvement in the methods OF
cultivation.
Mr.. Hartley says that 1t should
not be understood from this statemeT
that Il Is desirable to double the
present corn crop, but that 1t Is de
sirabIe to produce the same yield on
a small nnmber of acres and witt
less labor.
The experts say that the average
crop In the states best adapted =
corn growing is only little above the
general average Of the entire eoun
try. This. he says, clearly indicates
the possibility Of greatly increasini
the yield Of an acre In the corn belt
This ds especially easy Of accomplish
ment In the Southern states, wher'
tho present production al acre 4
low. and where the growing seasol
is rst shortened by frosts.

These words may appall some per

horses, prepared by the department
Of animal husbandry Of the Kan
sas State Agricultural College. The
figures show the quantities to be fed
every day TO a l,0O0pould horse,

the variation IL prices and kinds Of
foodstuffs produced IN different parts
Of the state, no definite ration can
be given.
Here is the Best One.
The first and probably le best
ratlcn for the average farm horse
is:
Corn, 6 pounds; oats. 3 pounds;
bran, 1 pound; prairie hay. ten
and aIfalfahay. 5 pounds.
A horse can do more work In hot

Corn, 10 pounds. oil meal 1 pound,
prairie hay 10 pounds.
A good raton, suitable for locaii-
ties where bran is cheap. Isl
Corn 5 pounds, bran 8 pounds
prairie hay 10 pounds.
Another good ration is:
Corn 10 pounds. prairie hay II
: pounds; and alfalfa hay. 5 pounds.
If prairie hay is scarce this ia.
tion, although 0 very good, can
be fed:
Corn 10 pounds. Alfalfa hay i
pounds, with corn fodder, kafEr
corn and cane hay for roughage.
Go Slow on Alfalfa.
1t will be noticed that there Is
little alfalfa hay in these rathons
1t should be fed work horses as a
concentrate or grain, rather than AZ
a roughage. and should never be
in UNLIMITED quantities. Many
farmers feed all the alfalfa hay
the horses will eat. ThA
should not be done, especially wher
the horse Is worked hard I'm hoi

feed for young and growing stock.
