No Hunger Too Great.

The compassion or Jesus Is a very
active principle, IL does not consist OF
signs and lamentations, or OF investi'
cations aud condemnation OF condi'
lions. His compassion causes him to
act. But the disciples are aghast at
his suggestion that he feed this null
titude OF about four thousand
Whence shall one be able to MI these
men with bread" tR, W? On the 9TH
er occasion Jesus had asked Philip,
who lived in the nearby town OF Beth
saida, where they might find bread;
but now they are in a desert place.
Il may seem strange for the disciples
to ask such q question. He had fed
larger number with smaller resources.

Day FARM STOCK FATTENlNo
Monotony and unattractlvencss Rn.
moved by Dlversity-Anlmsis Are
Essential Factor.

SO far the live stock fatteninh
problem has been discussed only
from the viewpoint Of the dry farms
needs, but the question has also an.
other side. Not only does the dry
farm need live stock. but the products
Of dry farms are needed for live stock
fattening Many dry farming sections
are IN close proximity to great ranoh-
ing districts, which raise stock but
cannot produce forage to finish It for
market
In the past q has been often neces-
sary to transport range cattle great
distances TO feeding districts. II the
dry farms IN the vicinity Of these
ranches could supply the necessary
products 1t would simplify consider
ably the problem Of preparing for
market. This need Of the products Of
the dry farm is especially true. since
an increasing proportion Of the
words production of grain win be
necessary for human consumption.
Dry farms can be made more stable
financially and more certain of per-
manence by the use Of stock. and the
live stock fattening problem can be
simplified by dry farms Let us now
inquire into the effect OF this combi-
nation on those who are to live on
these farms, The average dry farm
Of the past has not been the most in
viting place IN the world to live
Meager accommodation both for man
and beast have been the rule.
Under these conditions, life is
bound to have much of monotony and
but little Of the diversity and attract
iveness which farm home should
have. No great things can be expect
ed from country life of this type. II
the dry farm is to be desirable
place Of residence, It must have intro
duced in its life all the diversity pos
sible. This diversity cannot we'll be
had without live stock Of some kind.
Keeping IN mind these various con
siderations, it becomes evident that
the successful dry farm of the future
will be one In which the live stock
interests will be combined with crop
production; and It seems probable
that finishing for market will be one
of the phases of the live stock indus
try which will be most benefited by
the dry farm and from which the dry
farm will profit most.

TO GUARD AGAINST DROUGHT
Farmers Of Western Kansas Plant
About Half Of Their Milo and
Kafr Crop Quite ThlnIy.

One form of insurance against
drought is used by some successful
farmers in western Kansas. They
plant about half of their milo or kafir
crop quite thinly each year If fa-
vorable season follows they get full
yields on the area planted at the nor
mai rate, and fair yields on the area
thinly planted. If the season is dry,
they get light yields or none on the
area normally planted but still get
fair yield from the feeding grain
every year, with but a small loss in
total yield in the good seasons.
AS matter Of fact. If farmer
were to plant his entire area thinly
every year and thereby obtain fewer
bushels in five-year period than he
would by normally planting, his thin
planting might still be the most prof
table Large yields in favorable sea
sons and poor yields or no yields at
all in unfavorable seasons mean sell
ing a surplus at low price and buy
ing in times Of scarcity at high
prices. A yield of one hundred bush
els per acre in five years at the rate
of 20 bushels per acre every year
might, therefore, be worth more to
the grower than 146 bushels in i've
years, with a surplus in favorable sea

OF bludgeoning blows OF the hammer,

In arms that were never quite closed.
I'm weary of young men OF action,
OF damsels of quarterback build

Who spends half chapter in thinking
And ends every one with a swoon.

Who brush every hindrance away
And rule things like latterday heroes
With cold and impetuous sway

Who sighs like Bryon or Keats,
Who bursts into raptures impassioned

The disk plow consists of one or

TO the moldboard plow when under

The deep-tilling machine is of too

very much as to the exact place that
1t will fill in the tillage Of dry

that 1t will enable the farmer to go
down deeply into the soil without too
great an expenditure of power is a
great consideration, as deep plowing
In dry areas is generally allimport-
