The early garden is usually the best
and most satisfactory.
A silo does not greatly change the

Small grains will do well when

Oats and corn. especially. do well
after beets.

their cost in one season.
When you are thinking of buying q
farm remember the water Is an impor-
tant item for your live stock.
When you are manuring don't be
stingy-a good manure spreader Is put

When the corn crop is cut and put
into the silo the field is cleared and
made ready for fall wheat or rye.
When you have decided on your
seeds, order them at once.
Castor oil is splendid lubricant for
vehicles and other farm machinery.
BY the use Of the silo practically the
entire food value Of the corn crop Is
saved, made succulent and very nutri.
