BEST WAY TO
TOP DRESS GRAIN
Should be Done During the Fall
Months to Afford Proper
Protection for Roots
ofCrop.

If grain is to be top dressed, the
work should be done in the fall. as it
is very necessary to have the grain
deep-rooted with sufficient top to pro-
tect the roots. Haul and spread direct
from wagon or cart when the ground
is dry enough to haul over. The ma
nure should be fine and we'll rotted.
Clean, mellow ground should be
seeded to grass at the time of drilling
and sown to clover in the spring. The
early seeded grain nearly always gives
the best yield Rather thin land
drilled to grain should be top dressed
with long strawy manure. If manure
cannot be had spread straw or leaf
mold from the woods. A thin cover
ing willsproteet the. grain and grass,
and when rotted will help to~keep the
soil moist and cool during the hot
weather. Straw is worth fully $1.50
to $500 per ton to spread over the
grain. All straw not wanted for feed
ing and bedding should be used for
top-dressing grain and grass. Where
the land is not too rolling and the
SHOWS are not too heavy, there Is no
better way to use the winter manure
than to haul it out, and when the
weather is suitable and the ground is
in condition to haul over and spread
it ON either the grain or grass fields
Much OF the value of manure is vast
ed when it is piled in the yard. .ex-
posed to heavy rains and SHOWS
There is little loss when spread over
sod land.

Prejudice Isa

Prejudice Is hard thing to overcome,
but where health is at stake and the
opinion of thousands of reliable people
differs from yours, prejudice then be-
comes your menace and you ought to
lay it aside This is said In the inter-
est of people suffering from chronic
constipation, and 1t is worthy Of their
attention.
In the opinion of legions of reliable
American people the most stubborn
constipation imaginable can be cured
by brief use of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. You may not have heard of It
before, but do not doubt It's merits on
that account, or because ii has not been
successfully on word of mouth recon-
mendation. Parents are giving it to
their children today who were given 1t
by their s,d parents and it has been truth
personally in their families than any
other laxative.

NEED OF-LIME
ON SOME SOILS
There Is but One Sure Way OF
Making known the Fault
and That Is by Prac-
Eica1 Trial.

There is only one sure way of de-
termining whether soil needs lime
and that is by trial. An. application
of. lime over whole field would be-a
waste of both time and money if the
field were notfin need of such an APP
plication. It SIS suggested that the
farmer who has not already proved
for himself whether = his soils need
lime would better conduct few sim
: pie experiments at different points on
his farm. 4:
A few barrels OF lime or a few tons
of limestone would mot cost a great
deal and the labor of treating strip
with lime or ground limestone here
and there across different fields in
which crops were to be grown or SO
treat a small area here and there, at
different points in the fields III which
I. rops are to be grown, would involve
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1911-12-07


but a small amount of labor. These
areas should be very carefully located
and marked and the results of the ap-
plications should be carefully studied
on the succeeding crops. 1t is pos
sible that the effects, good and bad,
may be easily apparent. 1t is pos
.sible that the effects can be discov-
cred only by carefully cutting and
weighing the crops from portions of
the treated areas and comparing them
with the crops produced upon equal
adjacent areas.
Lime should not be applied to ma
snure piles nor to the litter in the barn,

Salt the Feed.

Lambs often prove to be miners at
the trough; sometimes the feed gets
"blowed over" rained upon, or fouled
by the animals putting their feet into
the troughs; it then becomes neces-
sary to clean the troughs often. Many
lambs take to ground feed very indif-
ferently. We have found great deal
of advantage in sailing the lambs
feed, instead of keeping the salt be-
fore them at all times. Handled in
this way our lambs clean up their
grain and ground feed much better,
and keep the troughs licked out all
the time. But, avoid over-salting.
