BUCKWHEAT AS

We sometimes lose our seeding In

seed we pillow the ground as soon
after the harvest as possible and sow

haustive crop, but occasionally use
it to further my grass seeding plans.
have never failed in getting a good
catch Of grass or clover, though
sometimes buckwheat fails In making
good crop. When weeds grow in the
wheat stubble after harvest you may
be sure that the clover seed is gone.
1t takes only about so days for buck.
wheat to grow and ripen. 1t will usu-
ally yield 10 to 20 bushels per acre.
so it pays well for the labor involved
and at the same time makes a fine
shade and protection for young grass
and clover sown at the same time
with buckwheat. sow about three
pecks per acre. with $50 pounds of
phosphate. Much nitrogen is leached
through the soil If there is not some
growing crop TO preserve it. Buck
wheat consumes but a small amount
of nitrogen. while the clover gathers
an abundance of this necessary ele
ment. n

An attachment on tank that fur.

much importance and is easily ar.
ranged. Just above the tank, as indi.
Gated In the sketch. two pulleys
should be suspended, over which the
cord runs which carries the float F.
and the weight w. The float in the
tank may be hollow copper ball or
a block of wood. The ball is perhaps
preferable, since the wood tends to
become waterlogged and thus will
change In specific gravity. At the
other end of the cord. hanging down
outside the tank. is a weight. The
float must be heavier than the weight
so as to be able to fall In the tank
as the water falls. The fioat will be
pushed upward. and, therefore. the
weight downward by the buoyancy of
the water as IL rises in the tank. By
means of the pulleys. therefore. and
the float the rising and falling of the
weight outside Is assured.
For the electrical contact. outside
the tank wall two wooden brackets.
&C and BID. should be fastened at
such heights that when the tank is
full the weight w rests upon the low
er bracket, and when the tank is
empty the same weight will rise and
touch the under side of the upper
bracket. AS the brackets require to
project past the cord suspending the
weight hole or a slot should be cut
in the upper bracket to allow for the
movement of the cord. On the under
side of the upper bracket two brass
or copper plates. A and c, are at
tached and similar ones, B and d. on
the upper side of the lower bracket.
These plates are connected in pairs
by wires, S and T, S connecting A
tached and similar ones, B and D. on
plates on each bracket should be, of
course. separate from one another. but
so placed that the weight at its high
est. or lowest point may touch both
plates and thus bridge the gap be-
tween them and complete the circuit.
The weight should be of metal and
should be furnished, both above and |
below, with points so placed that |
+hese points win touch the plates. The /,
points win give better assurance of
contact than broad surfaces would do,
since little dust adhering either to
he plates or to the weight would pre-
rent contact. The wiring is done as
shown in the diagram. viz. BY run

It was not until 1908. after serv-

that English was substituted. The |
feeling of some of the old Dutch fam
lilies against the supplanting OF their
tongue in the pulpit has not yet
ceased. There are catechisms Sc
printed in Dutch, and the old mem

this language In their prayers.

Mr.. A. R. Norwood OF the Leicester
fEngland) museum remarks that the
colors Of birds eggs can in large
number of cases be traced to the ne
cessity of protective resemblance. !"
White eggs are usually laid by birds
nesting in holes in trees. or in dark
situations, like owls. woodpeckers and
some pigeons. Most birds nesting on
or near the ground lay eggs of an
or brown color. The eggs
OF grouse, ptarmigan and so forth re-
semble the heather amongst which
they are laid. Those Of the ringed
plover. little tern and oyster-catcher
resemble the sand and shingle Of the
beach. The lapwing's eggs closely
simulate bare soil or dried bents. The
young chicks show similar "protec-
tive" colors.
