IRISH RAISE DISTURBANCE
IN AUSTRALIA
[uNITEp PRESS LEASED wIRE.l

Melbourne, May 26.-Empire day
was celebrated with great enthusiasm
in Australia Wednesday, In New
South Wales, however, a regrettable
feature cropped up when the Irish
Catholics, at the instance of Arch
bishop Moran, refused to participate
in the general celebrations and in
stead, inaugurated special demon
stration which they held in honor of
what they called Australia day. They
hoisted the Irish flag and the Aus
tralian ensign, but not the Union
Jack The action was greatly depre-
ciated by the rest of the people.

Storing and Caring
for Farm Machinery.
BY c. P. Bull, Minnesota Uni
versity Farm.
!. !. = :. :. :. !. !. :. :. \ + :.

On two or three extended trips
through the state, within the last few
weeks, the writer was very much I'M
pressed with the lack of proper care
and attention to the machinery used
upon farms along the line of travel.
It seems that ore of the greatest as
sets that the machine merchant has
lies in the fact that the farmer does
net properly house and care for his
machinery, from the time the harvest
ing season closes until seeding time
begins. Harrows, plows, binders,
mowers, rakes and all kinds of farm
machinery, were seen out in the field,
under tree. beside the fence or
against the barn, without any cover
ing whatever. Anyone knows that ex-
pcsUre to the weather is detrimental
to the durability of machine, as we'll
as to the quality of the work that it
soon form in the boxes and bearings,
and at other delicate points, thus
rapidly uniting them for use.
A cheap shed, even if nothing more
than a roof and one boarded side, will
pay for itself, as stOrehouse for ma
chinery, in one seasons time. Aside
from this the pillow should be covered
with grease; the cultivator shovels
we'll creased; and, wherever possible,
all parts OF machine should be kept
off the ground, or away from any
chance of gathering moisture, thus in
viting rust
The lack of proper storage and care
for farm machinery is one of the
financial leaks" of a farm, which
greatly increases the cost of produc-
ton, the cash outlay Of a farm bust
ness and decreases the net returns
A machine shed, properly construct
ed, will last lifetime; thus distribut-
ing the original cost over many years
and in the aggregate making the an
nual expense SO small as to be not
worth considering.

CLEARING UP THE BARNYARDS
Manure Should Be Put on the Fields
This Fall.

At this season of the year the barn
yards and adjoining lots are sure to
be covered with more or less manure
and litter. A dirty condition next
spring may be obviated by cleaning
up the yards this fall thus providing
for proper drainage, and for convent
ence in caring for the accumulation
of manure and debris during the win
ter time.
The fields need the manure to fur
nish humus and plant food, for the
best working of the soil and growth
of the plants. If left in the barnyard,
more than so per cent of the value of
the manure will be lost before it can
be hauled to the field next spring.
A tidy barnyard is evidence of an
up-to-date, progressive and intelligent
farmer-C. p Bull, Minnesota Uni

most generally planted. Bederwood,

Among other native fruits, the High

often be grown to advantage.

Throw Out Sod in Road Building.

No dirt road can be long main
tanned in good condition so long as
sod is retained in its construction.
The habit of blowing up sod and
throwing it into the middle OF the
grade has been largely responsible
for the fact that the work done on a
road in one season has SO often had
to be done over again in the next.
Throw out the sod entirely; allow no
standing water near che grade;
smooth the surface occasionally with
a King drag, and most of the problems
Of road maintenance will have been
solved.

A New Method OF
Killing Qaack Grass.
BY 9. r. Barns, Extension Iii
vision, Minnesota Agricui-
tural College.

:. = :. = < :. :. i. = :. = :. :. i. !. =
Senator Thomas E. eastman, in the
Farmers Institute Annual for 1911, de-
scribes a new method Of killing quack
grass, by which. it IS claimed, durire
the past twelve years, ne has externi-
mated il on 500 acres Of land; raising
u crop each year while The killing
was going en-, and GouLlias the value
CT the land by the process.
The process is based on the very
reasonable theory that if the land Is
stirred often enough, and to a sufi-
Gent depth to keep it from growing,
the quack grass will be starved to
death. The ordinary pillow, disc and
harrow being insufficient for this, and
some much advertised machines fail
ing to bear out the promise of the adj
yertisers, Mr.. eastman devised a
Quack digger of his own This ma
chine is about five feet wide; so heavy
that it sinks into the ground from five
TO eight inches, and requires four
horses to pull it. 1t tears up the
ground thoroughly.
Before resorting to the quack dig
ger, the land is subjected to repeated
plowings and diskings; following each
operation with drag, at intervals of
not more than three days apart. Then
it is gone over with the digger; then
it is again dragged; and then the
G1I r.
followed yet again by the drag. The
aim thereafter is to go over the land
at least once week with the quack
digger, for period of six weeks. If
there is much rain, the quack digger
is run over the field Oftener, followed
each time by the drag. After said
six weeks have passed, the land is
again plowed; this time little deep
or; and, if it is the spring of the year,
it is Immediately prepared for corn.
It is necessary to pillow the second
time in order to get at the roots that
have not been reached by the quack
digger after the first blowing. Mr..
eastman says: 'If the corn is proper
lined will kill the quack."
1t is at once apparent that all this
blowing, disking, dragging, and tear
ing up of the ground with the quack
digger, must involve a heavy outlay
for labor On the other hand, Mr..
eastman claims, as the result of such
hyper-cultivation, the production of
sixty bushels of corn to the acre, and
the doubling in value of the land
thought of previous owners at low fig
ures because of its being overrun with
quack) in a single year. Mr.. eastman
further claims that not only is the soil
greatly improved by the fertilization
which the dead quack roots afford, but
the intense working of the land so eX-
poses it to the air as to greatly enrich
the SOIL SO that it will produce SPLEEN
did crops for number of years, even
though it was badly run out in the
beginning.
To the live. energetic farmer, will
ing to pay, in effort, the price of sue
cess, Mr.. Cashmans method would
seem to offer a very effective way of
redeeming land from quack With
the other kind of man, who prefers to
take things easily" it's suggestions
Of intense activity may be provocative

Most Cherished Possessions Of the
ssmoans, and the Older They
Are, the Better.

Among the curious customs of the
Samoans is that OF making heirlooms
Of mats. BY some simple process OF
reasoning the mat has come to be
identified with the family. as the
heartstone is additionally sacred
among the Saxon race.
The Samoan mats are really fine
specimens OF art The people esteem
them much more highly than any ar,
ticle of European manufacture and
the older they are the more they are
regarded
Some OF them have names known
all over the Samoan group The old
est lis called Moe-e Fulfill, or THE
man that slept among the creepers. .
It got this title by reason OF the fact
that 1t had been hidden away for
years among the creeping convolvulus
that grows wild along the seashore.
1t is known to be 200 years old, az
the names OF Its owners during, that
period can be traced.
The possession OF one OF these old
mats gives the owner great power;
in fact, II is a title deed to rank and
property, from the Samoan stand.
point II Is no matter II the mats
are tattered and worn out; their an.
tiquity Is their value and for some OF
the most cherished Of them large
sums Of money would be refused.
