TO INCREASE
FARM CROPS
All Progressive A8ricuIturists
Interested In Question of
How to Make Lands
Yield More.

All progressive agriculturists are
deeply interested in the question of
how to increase the yield per acre in
the cultivated sections of the United
States.
1t is we'll known that the European
grows larger crops per acre than are
grown in this country, and, as the
price of farm land is increasing and
there is a demand for larger crops
each year, 1t is necessary to study
and learn how the output Of the soil
can be made to meet the increased
demand for all farm products.
The average yield of wheat per acre
for 1909 was: England, 344; France,
%; Belgium, 1872; Germany, 304;
United States, 1877.

Experiment Station, Gottingen, Ger.
many, says:
81 believe that the principal in
crease of the harvest is to be attribu-
ted In part to the application of ar
tificial fertilizers themselves and in
part to their combination with green
manures. Through the application of
the two the yield upon the average
has been doubled on our common light
soils. In some cases the yield has
even been increased two and one-half
to threefold.
THE greatly increased yields which
we are now producing in Germany,
especially of wheat, are dependent
upon improved seed, larger and more
intelligent use of fertilizers, especially
of artificial fertilizers, better crop ro-
tation and more thorough tillage. or
these factors, however, the use of fer

An old Irish peasant was one Sun

Match after match he lighted, pull

at last the ground all round his feet
was strewed with struck matches.

BLOUSES THAT ARE POPULAR
Very Attractive and Becoming De-
signs Are Being Introduced
This Season.

Overblouse effects are extremely
popular this summer, and some very
attractive and becoming designs of
this order are being introduced. The
waist may, of course, be worn with any
preferred skirt of harmonizing design.

or adjusted separately
A French lining forms the basis of
many of the waists, serving as a foun-
dation for the underbody, which will
prove the most effective If made of
allover lace, net or tucking, the stand
ing color being of the same material.
The waist proper is tucked from both
shoulder seams in front and back. the
front tucks terminating either at bust
depth or at the waistlne as preferred.
At the neck edge it is cut in circular
fashion, with deeply pointed opening
at the center front.
The sleeve caps may be made with
or without an opening to correspond.
Two sleeve models are given for the
underbody. The one-seam fitted sleeves
may be made in full or shorter length
while the puff sleeves are in elbow
length only.
The present season is very prolific
in pretty fabrics that would be entire.

cashmere. albatross. messaline, shan

Work horses should be grain fed;
a horse cannot work and keep in con-
dition on grass alone. An average
sized horse at hard work will require
about 16 pounds of good mixed hay, 10
pounds of cracked corn and oats and
pounds of wheat bran per day. A
bushel of fine-cut hay weighs about
pounds, and corn chops about 45
pounds to the bushel. One-half peck
of corn chops and one quart of wheat
bran, mixed with one bushel of cut
hay, adding just enough water to
make the meal stick to the hay, hakes
a good meal for the horse. Give this
ration three times a day, with a little
long hay at night. If you have q pas
ture close to the stables, turn the ami
nal out at night, after the mixed feed
is eaten.
Work early in the morning and late
In the evening and give long rest
during the hottest part of the day.
This is best for man and horse. Rest
and water the teams between meals.
Water that has been exposed to the
sun for an hour or two is better for
the horse than cold well water. Mix
one quart of wheat bran in each buck

The veil for summer is the airiest
of creations, falling about the brim of
hats and over faces and floating free
to the summer winds. Dots, set on,
have been shown less favor than lace
patterns on a net ground or large
meshed nets with figures woven in.
Those wells which are not of the
floating kind are of the latter variety
and are worn with wide-brimmed hats
and drawn to the back and under the
collar. 1t requires some care to pin
and adjust them correctly, and getting
under them is a matter that consumes
time. They are very neat in appear
ance, however, and very becoming
Hence their wearers are willing to put
in the necessary time to adjust and re-
adjust them.

birds or even tiny chanticlers woven
in. The heavy figures proved too un-
