Contrary to expectations Hampden
is to have ball team this year. The
players have taken the matter in their

Biooest Poultry Center,

Pataluma, Cal, is the center Of
what is said to be the greatest poultry
industry in the United States. The dis
trict covered lies about fifty miles
north of San Francisco, and occupies
a level country between the noun
tains. In the territory named 10000
900 dozen eggs were produced last
year. The poultry business there is
not carried on by women and chill
dren but is, as rule, conducted by
men who devote their entire time to
it. It is not uncommon to see one
man with a flock of 5000 laying hens
on his place and several dozen incu-
bators. Great care and intelligence
are used in the handling of these i'm
mense poultry farms. The total pro-
duction of eggs and poultry in this
district last year, 1910, according to
records, amounted to 100000.

Few sections can excel the northern
half of the state for the growing of
garden produce Of all kinds. We have
had occasion to compare the garden
vegetables exhibited at the different
northern. Wisconsin fairs with the ex-
hibitS shown at the Wisconsin and
Minnesota state fairs. IN size and
quality the northern grown product, as
a rule, excels that from the southern
localities. The prices paid for such
produce is higher in the northern mar
kets than at Milwaukee, Chicago, st.
Paul or Minneapolis. AS yet the de-
mand for garden produce is much
greater than the home supply.
The bulk Of the garden produce
consumed by the rapidly growing cit
les of Superior and Duluth is shipped
in refrigerator cars. The same is true
of the towns in the iron country trib-
utary to the head of the lakes. There
are splendid opportunities for market
gardens near Superior. The soil,
while heavy, can be made to produce
good crops of garden vegetables if
well drained and given proper ma
nuring and cultivation. On a smaller
scale the same is true near other cit
les and towns in northern Wisconsin.
That good returns may be obtained
by raising vegetables is apparent
from the following reports of farmers
in different localities.

west Of Iron river on good sandy
loan soil, which was originally COW

TESTING SOILS FOR
ACID AND The CURE
BY PROF. A. r. WHITSON,
Wisconsin College of Agriculture:

Acidity in soils, while not directly
injurious itself to most crops, is not
a condition of fertility, and usually in
dicates a need of phosphates. Els
pecially is it detrimental to the growth
of clovers, in that it does not favor
the development of the bacteria form
ing nodules in their roots, which fix
the nitrogen from the air. Clay loan
soils, the organic matter of which has
been almost exhausted, should be kept
in as favorable a condition for the
growth of clover as possible, and the
neutralizing Of any acidity is one OF
the most important factors.
A simple test to determine whether
or not a soil is acid is as follows. Get
five cents worth of blue litmus paper
from your local druggist and go into
field soon after rain, while the sur
face soil is still quite moist. With a
clean jack knife cut slit into the
earth and in this slit insert a sheet of
this blue litmus paper, pressing the
soil firmly around it. After five min
utes have elapsed, examine the paper
carefully and if the blue color is
changed to pink or red. it is indica"
tive of an acid condition. Care should
be taken in handling the litmas paper
that the portion used for the test does
not come in contact with the perspir-
ing hand. because perspiration is also
acid and consequently will have the
same effect on the color of the paper
as an acid soil has.
1t has been customary in agricul-
tural practice in older countries to use
freshly Stacked, burned lime for this
purpose. While this neutralizes the
acidity, it also tends to burn out the
organic matter too rapidly. On the
other hand, where lime carbonate such
as finely ground unburned limestone.
mari, or refuse lime from the sugar
beet factories, is used, there is no
danger of applying too much or of
causing the burning out of the organic
matter of the SOIL On such lands
which show reddening of sensitive
blue litmus paper when slipped into a
slit made with a knife and the paper
left In contact with the moist soil for
five minutes, the use Of half tone of
ground limestone or mari or a ton of
refuse lime from the sugar beet fac
tories as a beginning treatment, and
the REPETITION of that amount every six
or eight years will probably keep soils
In ordinary farm rotation practically
free from acidity.

GRIMES AND CASUALTIES

At Hunt City, ILL.,, Monday, Mrs John
BodelI, wife of a restaurant keeper,
shot and killed her husband a few
minutes after his return from ST. Ma
RE, where he had passed the day.
When BodelI drove up to the door
Of the restaurant in a buggy ne called
to his wife and they walked along the
street together. They were talking
eXcitedly and stopped short distance
from the restaurant and argued.
Mrs. Bodell suddenly drew a revol-
yer, and, stepping backward, pointed
it at her husband. He pushed the wea-
pom aside and appeared to think the
demonstration was a joke. Stepping
backward second time Mrs Bodell
fired, the bullet entering his breast,
and he died in short time.
Near Otsego, Mich, William AL
len, sixteen years old, was shot and
probably fatally wounded by his
brother Charles, aged twenty-six.
Whether the shooting was intentional
officers have not been able to deter
mine, but the elder boy has been taken
in charge by Marshal Wilson and will
be held pending an investigation.
The little boy was shot in the back
and while the physicians were prob
ing for the bullet, he coughed it up.
The bullet hit him under the right
shoulder blade and entered the right
lung. For time he was unconscious,
but revived later.
At indianapolis, Ind, John j. Gle

covered sufficiently to be moved to
his home from the city hospital. 1t

from 800 to 1,400 bushels per acre,
on mixed sand and clay loan soil.
4 From Washburn county comes the
following report giving the returns
per acre: Rutabagas yield about 600
bushels per acre, average price 30
cents per bushel, cost of producing
about $40 per acre. Squash will net
about $40 peracre. Onions yield from
200 to 400 bushels per acre and sell
for from 60 cents to 81 per 100 pounds
They cost $40 per acre to raise Cab
bage usually net about 500 per acre
These results were obtained by an ex
perienced grower On sandy loan soil.
S. D. Seavey of Bayfield, county, re-
ports returns as follows: "RutabagaS
will produce as high as 500 bushels
per acre with little manure applied
to the land. l have sowed rutabagas
on May 20 and marketed them July %
at 81 per bushel. Carrots do

These results were obtained on sandy

On clay land on the Superior Sub
Station farm, yields of 400 bushels of
rutabagas have been obtained. There

is an excellent source of lime carbon
ate for use on our acid soils Where
the mari is moist, more must be ap-
piled than when in dry form. Re-
fuse lime from the sugar beet fac
tories usually contain 40 to SO per
cent. of moisture as handled, but can
ordinarily be had for the cost of haul
ing from the sugar beet factories.
The peat soils of the central and
northern part of the state are ordin-
arily so intensely acid that it is out
of the question to neutralize them
with lime. Moreover, their abundant
supply of nitrogen containing organic
matter makes it unnecessary to take
any particular pains to supply this
element. Although alsike clover is
one of the best crops for this land, it
is not used to gather nitrogen. Lime
carbonate, such as ground limestone,
can be used in connection with ma
nure for an absorbent if desired, but
burned lime, either fresh or slaked,
should never be used with manure or
applied to the land the same year that
manure is applied.

RATHER MURDER
THAN WIPE DISHES

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5.--The re-
guest that he dry the supper dishes
is said today to be the cause of the
quarrel which led Harry Rouse, aged
80. assistant secretary of the Los
Angeles Abstract and Trust company,
to attempt to kill his wife and then
end his own life with bullet through
his heart. The shooting occurred
but a few feet from where the cou-
ples 4-year-old son was playing. The
Rouses had just finished supper and
Mrs. Rouse asked her husband to as
sist with the dishes. In reply he
drew a revolver and fired point blank
at her. The bullet went wild. He
placed the barrel of the gun to hu
own heart and pulled the trigger.
