Clovers and Grasses.

The high price of hay should
give an additional incentive for
sowing increased acreage of grass
es and clovers the coming year.
The high price and indicated high
prices OF cow peas, SOFA beans and
otherd eguminous crops, should
also make clover more largely used
and depended upon as a soil-im-
proven, as at present values it
costs less to seed per acre than any
OF the leguminous crops. The boun-
tlful crops and resulting low prices
OF grain should also make farmers
pay more attention to the improve
ment OF the land, which can be ac-
complished by seeding down to
grasses and clovers.

Dry Feed.

The principle of dry feed is a
good one and is being adopted
by poultrymen everywhere. 1t con
forms to nature, and all fowls in
the wild state live mostly upon
seeds, nuts and grasses,
while bugs and insects form their
animal food. If partridge, quail,
and other wild birds thrive on
such fare, why shouldn't the do

By carefully conducted expert
ments it has been found that
chickens raised and fed on the old
system of wet mash do not make
so rapid or so plump a growth as
those reared on the new or dry
feed system. The wet mash if fed
in too great quantities is left sour,
and chickens eating this are bound
to be injured by it.. Evil results.
follow and the flock is hampered
in its growth. On the other hand,
dry mash or grains do not sour
and can not possibly injure the
flock.
Chickens, like young children,
need food often In order to make
the best growth. If a supply of
dry mash and grain is left where
chickens can get at it, they will
satisfy their hunger and make.
steady growth. l. know of several
cases where chickens are fed but
once a week. A quantity of dry
mash and grain is provided in a
sufficient amount to last a week.
Fresh water is supplied once or
twice daily. / ear say from per-
sonal observation that i never
saw a healthier or better grow
ing flock than where this method
was followed.
A hopper is considered the best
for feeding dry mash and grains,
for it allows of but little waste.
Some poultry keepers, however,
use large shallow boxes for dry
mash feeding, while Others pre-
fer a deep box so that the chicks
cannot scratch it out and waste
it.
A wet mash is apt to cause the
chicks TO eat too much at one
Two and thus gorge themselves.

Charcoal for Hens.

In my own experience with
poultry I amlwen aware that it is
the simple things, and very often
the most important too, that are
apt to be over looked. AS common,
simple, inexpensive and easily OBJ
tanned thing as is charcoal it is
used comparatively few who keep
poultry. The results of it's con-
slant use in my pens during the
past few years has made it plain
to me that it is one of the most
essential articles among the poul-
try feeds or supplies. Since keep
ing it before the hens I have had
much less trouble from bowel com
plants with both chicks and
fowls. A great many from habit,
some from necessity, feed their
fowls about the same kind of food
day in and day out, rather poor
quality, and fowls fed in this way
must have something to assist ma
ture in keeping the digestive or
gans in order. In each of my pens
there is a box holding a couple of
quarts in which a supply of char
coal most of. it dry grain and
much of it is kept the year round.

How I Raised the Worlds Best
Ten Ears of Corn.

The very first thing to consider
is the drainage of the land. The
fields that I raised the prize-win-
ming corn on are drained with
fve-inch tile laid every 20 rods.
Next comes the preparing OF the
seed beds. I double-disked them
7plowed and worked the gronud
down till / had q perfect seed bed.
i checked the corr three feet and
six inches, with three grains of
corn toAthe hill.
When. the corn was a foot or
more high I thinned it to two
stalks to the hill.
The blowing was carried on as
long and as often as possible, with
deep cultivation at first and end
ing up with very shallow cultiva-
ton. After the corn was too high
to pillow with a cultivator | took
an old mower wheel and had a
blacksmith put ten teeth around
the side of the rim, and l ran
through my fields.
When the corn was ripe enough
to gather | got some boxes and
wired them on the sides OF the
WAGON beds. Then when | came
to an ear that looked promising l
threw it into the box. Then |
would sort these over and when l
found an ear that looked like a
grand champion candidate l
would bundle it up in my old coat
and gently carry it to the house,
where l took possession of a room
for storing the big ears. When
harvesting time was over | had a
nice lot of ears to pick from.
Thus l sifted the ears down till

Sowing in March On Fall-Sown
Grain,

Grasses and clovers especially
can be safely and satisfactorily
seeded on fall-sown wheat, oats or
other grain crops, during the
month of March. Seeding at that
time not only saves an extra pre-
paration of the land, but the har-
owing and cross-harrowing, which
is desirable in order to give the
grass and clover seed slight cover
ing, acts as a cultivation and a de-
cided benefit to the wheat and
grain crops, increasing the yield to
a considerable extent. In fact, even
if you do not seed clover and
grasses on your wheat and fall
sOwn grain in the spring, it is to
advantage to run the harrow over
these crops, SO as to break the
crust of the soil, which acts a a
cultivation and materially in
creases the yield of the grain.

This causes them to become lazy
and they will lie for hours in the
shade rather than forage and get
the much needed exercise which
is so essential to their growth. a
dry mash, on the other hand, will
never tempt the chicks to eat too
much. They will eat a little at q
time, forage for bugs and worms,
and return half a dozen times q
day to the dry feed hopper.
Thesdry feed system saves time
and labor. It is based on nature.

Tha puration Of Levers.


1t is a debatable question among
poultrymen how ding it is profit
able to keep a layer. For a long
time it has been advised to dis
card the laying stock at the end
Of the first year and replace it
with pullets Matched each spring.
This, no doubt, is good advice to
those keeping the heavier breeds,
but how about.the lighter breedsY
Ny experience with Leghorns
has taught me that a pullet was
apt to produce more eggs than a
yearhng or a two year-old hen,
but not enough more to pay for
the difference in the cost and trou-
bic of raising her. A hen lays a
larger egg than a pullet, and her
eggs make a better appearance In
market.
1T costs much to- replenish ones
flock each year, to say nothing
about the extra room, time and
pains required. Some poultry
keepers, with a flock of 400 fowls
will raise 100 pullets each year,
and thus their flock is renewed
every four years. Such a system
ed, will give one a flock produc-
torily, and is a great saving.
Careful selection of the best
layers regardless of their age, ex-
cept that certain age limit is fix
led, will give one a flock produc-
tive of the best results.
Among some varieties of fowls
it may not be wise to keep the lay
ing stock more than one year, for
some breeds take on fat rapidly
after reaching full maturity, and
are almost useless as egg produc-
ers. But among the lighter and
more active breeds, such as Leg
horns, Hambufgs, Polish and
Minorcas, there is no necessity of
disposing of the layers at the end
of their first year. They may be
kept with almost as much profit
as pullets for two or four years.
j have known my father to keep
White Leghorns for eight years
that were profitable up to the
time of their disposal. He had a
system of his own that he follow.
ed. Every fall he'would look over
his flock and select those that
were unusually fat or those whose
combs were small and withered
and seemed less promising as
layers than the others. These were
killed and marketed at intervals
of two weeks.
This elimination of non-layers
and overfat stock went on from
November to the middle of Feb
ruary each year, and enough pull
lets were raised to take the place
of those that had been market

REGIsTRAFIoN LAND Law
rs FAVORED BY BARRETT

l- s4sAH&+
President of the Farmers Union
Saws Such Legislation Will Aid
Members.
President Charles S. Barrett, OF
the Farmers National union is
heartily in accord with the plans
for. legislation in Georgia for a
land title and registration law,
along lines of the Torrens statutes
Speaking of the proposed legis-
Iation, a few days ago. President
Barrett said:
q have made a study of the
operation of the law in several
states, and my observation has
uniformly been of a favorable
nature.
"The state of North Carolina
employs. the system, and would
not exchange it for any other.
At the recent Farmers union ma
tional convention, held at Char
Iotte, there was much discussion
of the Torrens idea, and members
generally expressed themselves in
unqualified approval Of it.
Sentiment for the law is grow
ing in Virginia and South Carroll
IA, while in south Georgia it is
especially strong
"There is no valid reason why
the state should not, as under the
Torrens plan, guarantee titles to
land. 1t is called upon, often
enough, to thresh out differences
of opinion regarding titles in its
superior courts, to make it to the
state s interest to minimize litiga-
ton.
"That is, in fact, one of the
most appealing features of the
Torrens system. It minimizes
both litigation, which is expensive
to the state and to the individual,
and it saves antagonists. And
one of the most fruitful sources of
quarrel in the country districts is
found in diSagreements over land
titles"
President Barrett has gone to
Richmond and Washington.
In the first city, he will attend
an important state meeting of the
Virginia organization.
In the national capital he will
press upon congress the matter OF

Benefits of Using Lime for clovers

The presence Of lime in the
land seems necessary for best sue
cess with c~lOvers, and a good ap-
plication of lime is always of de-
clded benefit to both clover and
alfalfa. On soils deficient in this,
1t Is sometimes uncertain to get
good stands; whereas, when lime
is used freely, it nearly always re-
suits IN good stands and good
crops of clover. The best time to
apply lime is either during the
winter, before blowing, or just af-
ter the land is broken up, before
narrowing. The quantity iof lime
usually applied is 1000 lbs. per
acre on light or loamy land, and
1000 lbs per acre on heavy or stiff
lands. On lands already set in
clover or grass, an application of
land plaster at the rate of 200 to
300 lbs. per acre, as a top-dressing
IN the spring, is of decided bene-
ft.
The best fertilizer to use, either
IN seeding down clover or as fer
tilizer top-dressing, is ground ami
NAL bone.
Land well set in clover not only
makes a good forage or hay crop,
but is improving the condition and
productiveness OF the land at the
same time. Clovers are also almost
indispensable for best results in
hay and pasturage mixtures.

Along the Sacramento river the
milk is gathered with a motor
boat known as the milk Maid"
The boat makes two 20-mile trips
a day and is almost always on
time and runs seven days in the
week. The average rate of speed
is about IA miles per hour. The
carrying capacity of the "Milk
Maid" is about $50 gallons. The
milk, as was suggested, is collect
ed along the route and delivered
to the city trade.

Care of Breeding sows

The SOW should have her first
litter when about a year old. LII
bred to farrow at an earlier age
she is not likely to raise a very
good litter. If allowed to go
over that age she is adding to the
cost of production unnecessarily.
The first litter of pigs is supposed
to be inferior to pigs from subse-
quent filters, but in my experience
this deduction does not appear to
be accurate. 1t is usually better
to allow somewhat more than six
months between the first and
second filters. For that reason if
it is possible, keep the SOW in fair
condition. Sows giving only one
litter a year are usually unsatsfac-
tory breeders and although fall
litters may not be so profitable as
spring filters the breeders will
find it most satisfactory and pro-
fitable in the long run to have two
filters come during the year

Fertilizing Grain in the Spring.

We have also found most ex-
cellent results from fertilizing
wheat and other grains during the
month of March, in preference to
applying the fertilizer at the time
wheat is seeded in the fall, and we
strongly recommend to our Gus
toners, whether they seed clover
or grasses or not, to fertilize their
grain crops with 200 to 800 lbs. of
animal bone or a good grain fer
t%ilizer, at that time, and run the
harrow over it to slightly incor-
porate it with the soil. The in
creased yields of grain will well
repay for the fertilizing and lit
tie extra labor required.
