The depth OF blowing for corn will
be determined largely by the denth
OF previous blowing. 1t is not wise to
turn large amount OF raw subsOiI I'm
to the surface. Usually it is we'll to
bring small amount of new soil IN

ram, thus preparing 1t to be useful 10
subsequent crops. 1t is to be rcmcfr-
hercd that it is the mcIlOwed soil that
contributes most to the growth Of
plants. Other Influences have muc;,
to do with determining the DroDer
depth Of blowing for corn. If the

PROPER FLOWING INCREASES The CORN YIELD

The time Of blowing for corn will
usually be determined by the convc-
nencc OF the farmer. II is pretty we'll
established that the differences in
yield on land plowcd in the fall and
similar land plowed in the spring arc
very slight Generally it will be wise
to ploW for corn when the ground is
in good condition to be finely Dulvcr-
lied by the D;o" and when other work
does not Interfere. Sticky clay land
should not be ploWCd when it is SO
shiny condition. Land that is likely to
wash because Of stcepncss or other
conditions should be plowed late in the
winter rather than early.
Part Of the purpose OF blowing is to
enable the land to store water; an
other part to enable it to retain water.
Fall blowing provides for the storage
OF water i'll the soil; spring blowing
provides for its retention. But this
qualification needs to be added that
spring blowing is likely to hasten the
evaporation Of soil moisture unless the

HOMESTEADS.

An entry under the enlarged
homestead act is homestead
entry, as is one under section
22S9. Where the required a.
mount of money has been paid
in connection with Il homestead
entry to meet the proper charges
for the entry if amended, and if
| there be no substantial admins
trative objection to allowance of
amendment, the character of the
entry may be changed so as to
stand subject to those other pro-
visions of the homestead laws
applicable to the land to be en-
braced in the amended entry.
The iaw governing cash Ell
try does not fix any time within
which final proof must be sub
mitted. This law is not strictly
la homestead law, but the right
given thereby is in the nature OF
a right of purchase with a con
dition as to residence attached
Said law does not, like the home
stead law, require that such resi-
dence Shall commence on MAX
Ing entry OF at any specified
time subsequently. The money
having been paid and good faith
existing, fair opportunity after
notice should be given to com.
plete the residential require
ment
An American citizen who en-
ters public lands in Canada and
takes the oath prescribed to per-
form that act, does not thereby
necessarily eXpatriate himself
from citizenship in the United
States. 1t requires AN oath of
allegiance to foreign govern
ment to effect expatriation.
The continued occupancy of
land by claimant and his liberal
cultivation and substantial i'm
provement thereof, made after
the submission of final proof, is
strongly indicative of an original
purpose to make the land an
agricultural home.
Settlement upon unsurveyed
lands to be availed of as against
any other appropriation must
