THE W OF ADVERTISING
Constant Pounding Bound to
Bring Results.

What a mighty power is advertising!
The best advertised four-ply "all lin
en-" collars of the United States are
largely cotton and will not wear one
tenth as long Is the pure linen collars
of England and Germany, that cost no
more. But who knows about the su
perior foreign collars in this coun-
try?
The best copper and zinc plate for
photo engravers in the world is made
In Germany, but not advertised. AS
a result American zinc and copper ia
taking the English market through
sheer force Of advertising. You may
think and say what you will about the
mightiness of truth and its ultimate
prevalence but we must admit the
force and effect of advertising, which
amounts to this: If a statement is con.
stantly dinged into our ears we are
silly enough to incline to believe 1t to
the point of biting on the bait.
Advertising is stronger than the
merit Of the article. In this age a
man might make the best article of
the sort ever made and live in pow
erty unless he advertise it, while his
neighbor, making a distinctly inferior
article rapidly becomes a "malefactor
of great wealth" through %audacious,
not to say mendacious, advertising.

IMPORTANCE OF RETAINING MOISTURE
where NEEDED IN MANY SECTIONS
First Step Is Deep Flowing, Making Deeper Layer Of Loosened Up
Soil Which Allows Heavy Rainfall to Soak in Quickly and With
Least Possible ~Run-0f-Bridges Plant Over Hot Spell. That
Would Be Disastrous on Shallow Flowing.

(By w. G. PALMER, Agricultural Editor,
North Dakota Agricultural College.)
One Of the problems where the rain
10 less than twenty inches,' in fact it
10 true Of most sections, Is how to
keep enough moisture in the soil and
where the plant needs 1t, and special
ly to be prepared for a year when
the rainfall may be less than normal.
The first step is deep blowing. This
makes a deeper layer Of loosened up
soil which allows a heavy rainfall to
soak in quickly and with the least
possible run-off. This also gives a
larger feeding space for the roots.
The deep blowing, in holding more
moisture, a bridge the plant over a
hot spell that would prove disastrous
on a shallow blowing and especially
does this become important as the
soil gets older and the organic mat
ter used up which helps the newly
broken up land to hold moisture.
It has also been found that the best
quality of grain Is produced when the
crop is grown with the least rain or
water during the growing season, the
water being stored in the soil. To
have enough for the crop, deep tillage
is needed. Even where irrigation is
practiced it is found that better re-
suits are secured by watering less and
keeping moisture in the soil by tillage.
To control the evaporation of mois-
ture it Is necessary to understand how
the moisture o through the soil.
A good deal is heard of capillarity

perhaps not get enough moisture to
terminate. The deeper the land is
plowed the less often will it be neces-
sary to stir the surface soil.
Considerable moisture can also be
saved in the spring time by harrow
ing the grain after it is up. The
grain is most tender when about one
inch high. When two to four inches,
it will stand the narrowing nicely and
especially if the day is bright and
sunshiney.

The top soil grains are loosened and
left apart SO that the water film can
not reach across, also e Fig. 3.
Column G represents the soil grains
after the soil moisture has dried of
from the top grains-no more mois-
ture can come up to the top grains
and so evaporation is stopped. Also
see Fig. 8. When narrowing in the
spring it will be noticed that the soil
dries more quickly after being har-
rowed. This is due to the fact that
moisture evaporating from the top
soil grains and then it cannot draw
from below as is the case before 1t is
narrowed. This is the explanation Of
the value of early narrowing in the
spring. In stirring the top soil the
moisture below cannot, get to the sur

and capillary water. Referring to the
illustrations, this can be made plain
or. In Fig. 1 the globes represent
soil grains greatly magniied. The
outside line represents the water
film, also greatly magnifed. The ten
dency of water is to form a water film
of equal thickness over the soil grains
SO that If water evaporates from the
top soil grain in column A water
from below will pass up and take its
place. When it cannot draw water
from below the water film simply be-
comes thinner over all the soil
grains. This will go on until no more
water a evaporate. This is the
condition Of a fed when the soil is
compacted, as shown in Fig. 2. It

the soil is narrowed or cultivated.

pared with the hard spring wheat the
food department of the North Dako-
ia Agricultural college carried on
some milling and baking tests. The
results are given below.
In the milling tests there were %
hard spring wheat and eight samples
Of velvet chaff and the average for
the milling tests together with the
maximum and minimum yields of flour
for the several samples are given in
the following table:

1t will thus be observed that there
is but very little difference in favor
of the hard spring wheats and had
there been milled as many samples of
velvet chaff wheat as of hard spring
wheats it is quite likely that the diff
ference would have been even less.

It will thus be observed that in loaf
volume the velvet chaff wheat aver
aged better than the hard spring
wheats, and in color it was slightly
superior to the average of the hard
spring wheats. Judging from the crop
Of 1909 velvet chaff wheat proved
superior to the hard spring wheat of
the state in bread producing qualities.
The difference in price between No.
1 Northern Hard Spring wheats and
the best velvet chaff wheats has been
from six to ten cents per bushel, but
the milling and baking tests for 1909
do not warrant any such distinctions.
While the farmer has received from
six to ten cents less for his velvet
chaff it is a question whether many
elevator men have sold the same for
any less than the price received for
No. 1 Northern. In fact, there are in
dications that velvet chaf wheat,
weighing from SO to Ga pounds per
bushel, plump and sound, may be
mixed with hard spring wheat, which,
owing to the fact that they were
slightly below weight, we're classed
as No. 2 Northern, and by mixing the
two the grade of the No. 2 Northern
was thereby raised to No. 1, the ad-
vantage being an increase of n
grade in hard spring wheats obtained
through the addition of a wheat, vel
vet chat, bought for a less price. That
such might be the case would seem to
be indicated by a statement made by
one who is in position to know when
he says:
There was considerable velvet
chaff wheat brought to Superior and
Duluth last year, but there was none
