Vegetation begins with the very simplest forms of plants, such as ich- ems and mosses, and is, of course, very scanty at first These plants on dy- ing become a part of the soil, all of the plant nutrients used by them be- ing thus returned.
 Food that has once been used by plants is very readily made available to succeeding crops through the pro- cess of decay The soil is now able to produce a larger crop, as it con tains the plant food in the previous growth in addition to that added through the agencies detailed above.
 In this way the growth gradually be- comes more abundant The plants up- on decaying give rise o humus, and his increases the fertility of the land both by being source of plant food md by increasing the water-retaining bower. Humus is a very important actor in fertility. During the de- composition of the plants, acid sub

VARIOUS AGENCIES. CONCERNED
 IN FORMATION OF THE SOIL
Two Things Suggested Farmer Prevent Ezchauson 0< EertiIity-First Assist Nature Means T1IIa4e O
 Manure Fertilizers.

It will readily be understood that the various agencies concerned in the formation of the soil do not act sep arately nor necessarily in any such order as that in which they have been discussed.
 As matter of fact all the processes described take place simultaneously. The lower plants do. not wait for the rocks to be pulverized, for we see such organisms as the lichens grow ing on rocks from which one would think it impossible to obtain food.
 If the lichen is removed, grooves or furrows will be found on the surface of the stone, due to the action of the plant.
 Nor are all soils formed directly from the original rocks, for one of the effects of weathering, etc, is. to sep arate such rocks as the granites into simpler substances, with the result. for example, that huge deposits of limestone are formed in one place. and in another whole hills of sand stone.
 The soil is almost constantly nov ing, for some of the same agencies which form soils are continually car rying them away. Running water grinds the rocks, but at the same time transports the fine particles to lower levels. It cuts deep valleys in the surface of the earth and carries away the debris, depositing it at various distances from it's source
 This study of the formation of the soil then suggests two things that the farmer can do to prevent the ex- haustion of the fertility.
 The first is to so treat the soil as to assist and hasten nature in the process of converting the plant food into available forms by means of good tillage.
 The second is to return to the soil by means of manure and fertilizers an amount of plant food equivalent to that removed by the crop.

Woman and JustIcs to Man.

In the past, because of what we commonly call chivalry, men have been at disadvantage in many emer- gencies.
 It sometimes happens, for example. that a man, in spite of his nobler de- sires, is compelled to go to law with a woman She commits trespass or fails to pay a debt, and there is no remedy but suit in court How does it stand with the unhappy man who brings the action? All his fellows de- nounce him as a brute. The lawyers make him the butt of their antedi- luvian jokes and the jury give a yer dict against him withouS leaving their seats. VIII it be so now that women can vote? There will soon be female lawyers, judges and jurors. Will 8 woman fare quite as well with dozen of her fair sisters to pass upon her rights and wrongs as she does now? Perhaps she will have a more difficult road to walk, but there will be com pensations. Men will stand far bet ter chance of obtaining justice where women are concerned than they do at present. Tears and sobs are far more persuasive with jury of males than they are likely to be with women.- Portland Oregonian.

Natures method of increasing the humus and soil fertility. Notice the rotten log and leaves decayIng, thus returning plant food to the soil. stances are formed which act upon the rocks in such way as to make more of the plant food available.
 One of the products of decay or fermentation is carbonic acid gas, and this is dissolved in the soil water, and this gas-contairing water is an inn portant help in disintegrating the rocks.
 As the nutritive materials increase from these various causes the lower simpler forms of plant life are grad ually replaced by those which are more highly organized.
 With the advent of plants, like our common crops, which bear roots, other factors in the formation of soils are introduced. The roots secrete an acid substance that has a solvent effect on the mineral matter of the soil, and the roots themselves also assist mechanically in breaking down the rocks.
 All are familiar with the tremend- ous force exerted by plants in break ing apart rocks and stones if once their tender rootlets obtain a foothold in a crevice.
 The roots penetrate the soil some times to great depths, and, as they decay after the death of the plant, they leave little channels in the soil which serve to carry down water laden with carbonic acid, as well as to introduce the oxygen of the air, that, in it's turn, is factor in bring ing about chemical changes in the soil, which assist in making plant food available.
 Sooner or later in the process of soil formation, plants of the pulse family Ceguminous plants), such as clover. vetches, lupines, etc, are in- troduced.
 If you dig up some of these plants you will find little nodules or tuber- cles on their roots. These nodules are the homes of numerous bacteria, which enable the plants to derive part of their food from the nitrogen of the atmosphere.
 This peculiar property of legumi- nous plants is of great importance, for it is undoubtedly natures prin- cipal method of increasing the supply of nitrogen in the ground.

DAIRY LESSONS
 AT STATE FAIR
Care Taken By Operator A1 Handling MIR to Prevent Contamination Was ReveIa-
 ton to Spectators.
ey R. Q. wEATHERsroNE.,

One of the most practical lessons Of our state fair this fall was that taught by the state agricultural college which had set up in an amphitheater hold ing about 1000 persons, complete modern dairy. In this dairy all the operations of separating milk, testing 1t with the Babcock tester and making butter were performed daily and the amphitheater was never large enough to hold the interested crowds.
 The care taken by the operator to prevent contamination of milk and butter was evidently revelation to many of the farmers and their wives, as exclamations of surprise were fre- washed and scrubbed again and again. plunged into hot water and the whole process of butter making gone through without once having been touched by human hand.
 The spectators were for the most part composed of practical dairy workers more or less versed in their business. They asked innumerabls questions upon every phase of dairy ing, often showing almost perfect knowledge of the business; but the operator in charge, remarkably well informed and alert young man, never failed to give instant and satisfactory reply.
 Two demonstrations daily were made in this dairy and during the five days of the fair 1t is safe to say that 10000 persons received valuable in- struction in the way of object lessons in good dairying.

 do much standing, often stand in& sYen on long rides, but little rap id walking. The consequence Is that tha mhscles which normally hold the ioinla of the ankle firmly together be- core dabby and allow the gradual disat earance of the arch and the re|Iati0n of the fragments of the ankIa joints. Many people wear flat foot braces for this, and in advanced eases such crutch is probably nee essary.
 In most cases, and particularly at the beginning of yielding of the arch it would be much better If exercises were practiced to restore the strength and hrmness and contour of the arch rather than support 1t by artificial means. The elevator has taken away the exercise for the feet that used to be obtained in going up and com ing down the stairs. So far as it is of use in facilitating ascent in the high buildings 1t is an advantage. It would be probably much better, however, if 1t were not used so much for coming down.
