land is manured for corn, the corn il
we'll cultivated, then the land is disket
for the succeeding grain and gras!
crops. The manure added to the corr
land is broken down, and some of the
elements liberated, while the corr
crop is growing. This leaves the sol
well supplied with plant food for the
young grass plants. The cultivation
of the corn crop conserves moisture
and leaves the soil better supplied
with moisture than does grain crop
1t has been shown by accurate exper
mental work that a corn crop re
moves about three-fifths as much wa
ter from the soil as an ordinary
grain or pasture crop. By diskine
land for the grain crop, instead OF
plowing it, the soil is left in a com
pact condition, and is less likely to
dry out than is plowed land. Thus
the corn land furnishes three condi.
tions essential for getting a good
catch of grass; namely, rich soil, a
moist soil and firm soil.
Years When Grass Fails.
When one fails to get catch OF
grass, there Is nothing to do but to
make the best Of 1t. For pasture, such
crops as rye, rape, peas and oats, and
in fact a thick seeding of any of the
grain crops or corn, will answer fairly
well, though Of course these crops are
more expensive than the ordinary
grass crops for pasture. To take the
place of hay, there is probably no bet
ter crop than fodder corn or silage.
The loss Of the grass crop the last two
years has emphasized the great value
of a silo on the farm. A silo of rea-
sonable size and capacity will furnish
an excellent quality of feed to help
out short pastures or short hay crops.
It is a safe proposition to put in plen-
ty of corn, anyway, because corn is d
good crop and can be used either for
feed or for market. If the hay crop
proves good, the corn can be harvest
ed for grain, and either marketed as
grain Or fed to extra stock. If the hay
crop and pasture crop is a failure,
corn can be put in the silo to take the
place of both the hay and pasture.
While there are great difficulties to
overcome in working out practical
rotation, it is worth the cost; and lit
tie that is Of value in this world is Sc
cured without effort We believe
there is no one thing that will return
greater profit on money and effort
expended than will the working out
of a practical rotation on the farm.

WHAT ARE WE HERE FORT
What are we here for?

w AdC dlC we AClt lOI
What is the prime purpose of life?
Some Of us act as if We were here
merely for the purpose of adding up
columns of figures and piling up pyra-
mids of dollars. Some Of us will rob
our nights of sleep, break the COM
mandments and callous our souls for
the sake of money that we cannot use
Silly?
No more so than those who think
we are in this world for the purpose
Of acquiring power. To be accounted

these will ride remorselessly over the
rights Of others. For the mere pleas
ure Of exercising power they will rise
on the stepping stones of prostrats
souls.
Futile?
Not more so than those who think
life should be dedicated to pleasure.
These try to all their days and nights
with joy rides and f1eeting sensations.
They crowd enjoyment to the verge OF
safety and destroy their capacity for
normal satisfaction.
What then are we here for?
BY the process Of elimina tion it can
be shown that human heing is 50
built that every power, pleasure, ac-
quirement, is In vain save one.
And that?
The power and pleasure of doing
good to others.
Oh, but you say
"That is Sunday school talk" No;
1t is not. Or If it is it is not true be-
cause it is taught in Sunday school:
it Is taught there because it is true.
It is Gods truth.
The law of it is laid in the constitu-
ton Of things. It Is attested by an
history and experience-a law as true
as any in mathematics And
We know it. But, like Jonah, we are
forever running away from our mis-
sion. We prefer the perils of the sea
and the habitat of the fish's stomach
to going to Nineveh.
Get money?
Yes, as much as you can-honestly.
And get as much power as you can
use for good. Incidentally the pleas
ures will come Of themselves
But, above all
Do not forget what you are here for.

ROTATION OF CROPS.
BY A. D. Wilson, Extension
Division, Minnesota AgricuI-
tural College.

!. i i \ i. + i. 4. i i. i. i. !. !. j, !. !.
Everyone who has had experience
in farming, we believe, realizes the
value of the rotation of crops. By
the rotation of crops, larger yields are
secured, weeds are largely eradicated,
labor is better distributed throughout
the season, and there is less loss from
crop disease There are, however,
many difficulties on the farm to en-
counter, which make it practically out
of the question to follow absolutely a
definite system of rotation. Many
farms have waste land that can be
used for no other purpose than for
pasture or meadow. On such farms 1t
often seems impractical to seed down
much of the plow land. This difficulty
can many times be overcome by de-
voting some of the grass land, seed
ed down, to the production of seed,
either timothy or clover, preferably
clover. Either timothy or clover
seed usually finds a ready market;
and on the average it is certainly az
profitable as is a grain crop; beside
the fact that the soil is benefited by
producing the crop.
The matter of fencing often pre-
vents the practical working out of ro-
tation. If one can get a good fence
about the outside of his farm, the
difficulty of fencing off different fields
is greatly reduced, as these fields can
be fenced off with temporary fences
that are quickly and cheaply con.
structed.
Getting a Catch of Grass.
Another most serious difficulty en-
countered in attempting to follow
rotation of crops is that of the failure
to get catch of grass when desired;
for in some seasons, like those of
1910 and 1911, it is practically i'm
POSSIBLE to get catch of grass. How.
ever, this need not discourage one; it
simply holds one back. With soil
properly prepared, one can usually get
grass to catch at least eight years
out of ten. At University Farm it
has been found that the surest way to
get a catch of grass is to seed the
grass with the grain crop, on land that
was in corn the previous year, and
not plowed for the grain crop. The
