Farmers of this United States need
lessly threw away 8, 500, 900 bushels of
winter wheat this year, not to mention
an enormous loss in other farm pro-
ducts, simply because they failed to
prepare against drouth by taking steps
to keep moisture in the soil. This is
the declaration of Sec. John Il. Burns,
Of the international Dry-Farming Con-
gress. who is now preparing to conduct
the sixth congress, which meets in
Denver, Colorado. next October.
Mr.. Burns had just read the report
Of the United States department of
Of agriculture for cugust, showing that
loss under the 1911 crop. Before him
lay sheaf of wheat raised by J. M.
Bradshaw, of Peyton, Colo, who has
just threshed an average of 20 bushels
per acre from 100 acres, patches in
which ran as high as 81 bushels. On
the Bradshaw land only four inches of
moisture fell from the time this wheat
was planted. Sept. 2, to the day it was
cut. July Is, and there is not live
stream in Is miles. This land was
su INNER titled, that is carefully culti-
waited and the weeds kept down the
summer before it was planted. This
is one Of the tenats Of scientific dry
farming as taught by the congress.
It il applicable to every part of the
land, says Mr.. Burns. The average Of
all wheat in the United States accord
ing to the government is only 14.5
bushels, and the quality is 80 against
92.6 last year. SO there is nothing
wrong with the 1911 wheat but lack Of
moisture.
Every farmer in the land could
have done as Mr.. Bradshaw did with
his little four inches Of rainfall, had he
been intelligent enough to study dry
farming methods and willing to do the
necessary work, declares Mr.. Burns,
Some day they win prepare to mee'
drouth as they do all other adverse
phenomena Of nature. and overcome i

Governors Son in Navy

Harry A. Wesley, aged %, son of
Gov. R. S. Wesley, of South Dakota,
has been accepted as a jackie in the
United States navy. He took his
examination in Sioux City last week,
but his enlistment was held up owing
to the youths lack of proper weight.
His father and Col. Charles Englesby
took up the matter with Lieutenant
Post, at Omaha, and secured dispen-
sation for the lad. He is rated as
landsman for electrician, and will be
stationed on the United States ship

Cut Some Hay

James Norwood, a farmer living
near Ashton, isn't worrying about the
drouth. He has made his second cut
ting of alfalfa on twenty acre tract,
getting a ton and half to the acre.
An earlier cutting in June, yielded two
tons, and he will be able to cut for a
third time later in the season. With
the total yield amounting to four tons
an acre, his land will average $40 an
acre for tie season.

1t is the craze of the pretty ladies
of the Tiergartenstrasse's plutocrat
society TO be painted while asleep,
writes Berlin correspondent. The
Austrian Countess Czivek started the
bright idea. The well-known portrait
list who had given her an appointment
for the sitting has the vicious habit
of making you wait. Tired OF turning
over French novels in an antecham-
Der, the beautiful countess fell asleep.
At last the procrastinating artist turn
ed up.
Entranced by the unexpected vision
of sleeping beauty he threw off a
lightning sketch and as the countess
awoke held it before her astonished
eyes. The drawing was so dainty and
seductive that the delighted sitter in.

She had been cutting carpet rags
when interrupted by her unexpected
guests, and Washington had soon
drawn from her the fact that she and
her husband, who was then off in the
village with the horse, delivering some
strips of floor covering, kept the wolf
from the door by sewing carpet rags
and weaving.
The young aristocrat whispered a
| few words to his lady and she laugh
| ingly nodded consent. Washington
then snatched a huge apron which he
saw hanging on the door, and, tying it
around the laughing Martha, handed
her a pair of scissors and told her to
| commence. He begged the protest
! ing dame, their little silver-haired host
ess, to get him q pair of shears, and
soon the three were cutting and sew
ing carpet rags right merrily. The
pair remained at the cottage until
dusk, leaving behind them great bas-
ketful of gay carpet balls and sub
stantial evidence of well wishes. AS
the Washingtons drove away home,
George expressed himself we'll pleased
with the way in which he had spent
his birthday.
Just one more record we have OF
how the general kept the resolution
made on his thirteenth birthday. 1t
was in the year 1878, while at Valley
| Forge, that Washington marked Feb
ruary % with deed of kindness which
indeed made one man grateful that
the general had been given the gift Of
life for little space" A young SEN
try was sent to him under the charge
of having been found asleep at his
post. He was scarcely more than a
boy ill-clad and half-starved, and even
though he was badly frightened his
eyelids were heavy with sleep.
The great general questioned him
kindly, found that he had given his
last ration to suffering comrade and
relieved sick man of sentry duty. In
stead of reprimanding the boy, Wash
ington spread blanket, told him to
lie down and get an hours sleep.
When he awoke 1t was past noon, and
the general had laid the table. He
was ordered to partake of the birth
day" feast of cheese. some stale bread
and good hot coffee. or what passed
for that beverage. The next day the
boy was sent to the hospital with q
fever. and he never saw battle after
that
Although this Is the last record that
can be found of how Washington kept
his birthday. undoubtedly later ami
versaries were marked by deeds OF
kindness equal to those of his early
years.

GOOD CHARACTERISTICS OF
BROWN SWISS DAIRY CATTLE
Cows Show High Degree Efficiency Converting
MIR F1esh-They Are Not
Nervous Disposition Habit.

Beginning in the year 1870, Brown
Swiss cows and heifers to the extent
of about one hundred and fifty have
been imported into the United States
Descended from these, over 1000 pure
bred animals have been registered in
the Herd Book.
In the native country of the Swiss
cattle there is no attempt at line
breeding or fancy breeding, says a
writer in Northwestern Agriculturist.
What they seek to perpetuate are
good cows, COWS that give a good
quantity Of good milk, and that have
shape and size.
Considering the small number to
choose from In the entire country, 1t
fs rather remarkable that its repre-
sentatives have achieved so large a
number of high records for dairy per-
formances, and that the breed stands
as we'll as 1t does in general estima-
tion where 1t is known.
The highest official worlds record
in dairy test for cows away from
home is that of the Brown Swiss COW
Brfenz, 16S, made at Chicago, in No
vember, 1891. the results being taken

of the Swiss breed. At eleven and
twelve years of age the COWS are in
the prime of their life.
It is probable that the Brown Swiss
race has quite different origin from
the races of western Europe. There
are indications that 1t is more ancient
than any of the other established
races. They have been bred by a
pastoral people for the same purpose,
in the same locality, for longer time
than almost any other breed. Its gen.
eral character. it's color points, its
points of conformation are probably
more firmly fixed than those of any
other breed. Experience in crossing
confirms what we are able to learn
from history and paleontology in this
respect. AS a consequence the breed
characteristics are readily impaired
to cross-bred animals when cows of
other breeds or grades Of other breeds
are bred to Swiss bulls. Grade Swiss
cattle even of the first and second
generations are often hard to distin-
guish by their conformation and col
or marks from pure bred Swiss ami
mails. The grades are sure to gain in
