is laid, these bones must be forced
apart to allow its free passage. When
these bones are soft and pliable, and

evidences of physical disorder are soon

dose the following night, II necessary.
You will find the child will quickly re-

DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and

positively, and causes no gripping or

RAINFALL RETAINED IN SOIL
Possible to Store Approximately rs
Inches Of Water In the Upper
Ten Feet Of Ground.

tBy D. W. FREAR, Colorado Agricul-
tural College)
Actual experiments show that the
actual field water capacity Of arid
soils varies from IA per cent. for a
very sandy loan to IS per cent. for a
clay loan, with an average OF about
1t per cent. The greatest water ca.
pacity would be even more. At this
rate every 10 inches in depth OF soil
can hold from 2.25 to 2.65 inches of
water. or an average Of 245 inches.
At this rate 1t is possible to store ap.
proximately rs inches of water In the
upper 10 feet OF soil. This is from
one and one-half to two times the an.
nual rainfall over the better dry.
farming sections. Therefore, 1t should

years rainfall In the soil, by using

GREEN MANURE is VALUABLE
Increases Fertility and Water-HoIdins
Capacity and Brings Plant
Food to Surface.

It is well-established fact that the
soils of the arid regions are as rule
deficient in organic matter. This de-
dciency may be overcome to a certain
extent by any Of the three common
methods of adding organic matter to
the soil, which are as follows: (a) BY
green manures and crop residues; (b)
by accumulating in pasturing; (c) by
applications Of farm manures.
OF the methods mentioned, the first
Is the most important and least prac-
ticed. 1t consists mainly in the grow
Ing of a crop which is plowed under
while 1t is green and succulent as 1t
decomposes most readily at that
stage.
Leguminous crops, such as alfalfa,
clover, field peas and vetches. are
usually recommended for green ma
nures. They have the special power
OF obtaining their nitrogen from the
air through the agency Of bacteria in.
habiting the tubercules on the roots.
The characteristic advantages Of
green manures to the soil are as fol-
lows:
l. Increases Its fertility by the
large amount Of organic matter which
1t acquires.
z. Increases its water-holding ca
pacity.
3. Utilizes soluble plant food that
would otherwise escape from the soil.
4. Brings plant food from the low.
er soil to the surface soil.

HIS MoDEsTY OF HIGH ORDER

Lord Tankerville, who Is sending
his son to an American school, said
the other day in New York:
There are too many Englishmen-

modesty reminds me Of a village tink-

This tinker had rather crusty
disposition. and his pastor said to him
one day:
my man. you should love your
neighbor as yourself
"'Yes. SIR said the tinker.
But the pastor had in mind nasty
black eye that the tinker had given
the bricklayer next door, and SO he
went on:

Culture Of Alfalfa.

The culture of alfalfa can only be
successful under careful and intelli.
gent culture, or, In other words, high.
class farming. In the dry farming
sections alfalfa is now successfully
grown. Under the irrigation system
the crop is sure and abundant one.
In the Atlantic states the greatest re.
turns have only been secured by those
following careful preparation OF

(By A. G. PHILLIPS. Kapsaso

By A. G. PHILLIPS. Kansas.)
To insure the best success in this
work. the poultryman must first have
fixed in his mind the line he wishes
to follow and then bend every effort
to carry II out. II he wishes to breed
hens for eggs, the first thing he must
do is to select his stock with that OBJ.
ject In view.
A farmer who feeds Steers for beef
production picks out individuals which
conform closest to the type of animal
which he considers would make the
best feeder. This type is entirely diff
ferent from the one dairyman would
select for his dairy herd. The man
who selects horse to use on heavy
drag wagon hunts for one which he
thinks can best do that work, while
the man selecting race horse would
pick one of an entirely different con-
formation.
Thus, in intelligent selection Of our
live stock the purpose for which 1t is
to be used is first determined. In ap'
plying this principle in the poultry
business. there are several things
which should be considered In select
ing hens for layers.
The first thing to notice concerning
the shape is. as to whether or not the
hen is rangy or becky. A becky hen
indicates meat producer, while the
more rangy one indicates the produc
ton of eggs. Since the development
of the egg, to large extent. takes
place in the region Of the body below
the broad part of the back, that part
OF the body should be broader than
the fore part. This gives to the body
a v-shaped appearance as viewed
from the top, the small part Of the
v lying toward the front. When a
hen is in heavy laying condition. her
abdomen is lower than the breast line
This gives the body the appearance
Of being V.shaped as viewed from
the side along the top and bottom
lines. with the small part Of the v
toward the front. This enlargement

sides, Heavy Clay and
Stoueo.

The best soil for onions is q rich
well.drained loan. Heavy clays, hill.
sides and stony land should be avoid.
ed. Onion soil cannot be too rich.
Excellent crops are grown on deep.
rich, muck lands that have been un,
der cultivation for three or four years.
Such lands should contain q fair mix
ture Of sand. New, raw muck lands
give poor returns.
The ground for onions should have
been planted to some heavily manured
hoed crop the preceding year and be
practically free from weed seed. II
is great mistake to grow onions on
weedy or rundown land.
The following which relates to onion
growing on large scale also applies
to garden growing.
A rather firm seeded which results
from fall plowing is desirable and
gives the best results. A second crop
Of clover. heavily fertilized with barn
yard manure and turned under In the
fall followed by potatoes the next year
makes an excellent preparation for
onions the second year.
A heavy top dressing Of well.rotted
barnyard manure or compost should
be applied In the spring. and we'll
worked into the soil. After this q com.
plete commercial fertilizer analyzing

able phosphoric and 10 per cent pot
ash should be applied.
This fertilizer formula is very popu.
lar with large onion growers. and It
should be put on broadcast and thick.

cultivation the commercial fertiliser
may replace In part. the barnyard
manure. A top dressing Of ashes and

the commercial fertilizers.
