Alfalfa Hay Wins First Honor

The results of long number of ex.
periments in feeding farm work horses.
are described in Bulletin No. $50, issued
by the University of Illinois Agricultural
Experiment Station at Urbana III Ten
teams of horses were used in the various
tests. In general the plan was to feed
the two horses of each team simulta-
neously OF the respective rayons to be
compared, and then reverse the rations
for an equal length of time to eliminate
the influence OF individual feeding ca
pacity of the horses. Interesting deduc
tons in favor of alfalfa were among the
conclusions. The ration of corn and
alfalfa costs six cents less per horse per
day than the mixed ration. Other
equally interesting results were noted

Better Farming

Better farming means so much that it
takes a man with big ideas and much
sand and gumption to carry it out 1t
means something like an equality of
give and take. You must give the soil
as much as YOU take-a little more will
other way isn't farming-its a race for
poverty lane farm won't yield with
out being fed. any more. than a hired
man will work without being paid.
The time to begin better farming is
before the soil shows real need of it.
It's easier to keep up than it is to catch
up. Rotate crops and get a stand of
clover between the grain years once i'll
three years at least ! hat means cattle.
of course; but anything YOU grow is bet
ter sold in the shape of cream, beef,
two-thrds of the fertility is returned to
the farm in the manure. That is part
of better farming.
More cattle, better cultivation broader
methods, is the trinity of better farming.
Selling less to sell more is the creed.
That last may sound funny but it is true.
You sell less fertility and bulk to sell
more dollars worth. You can market
livestock produce with less expense and
not rob your soil TO do it. For instance,
the farmer who sells a ton of wheat,
Iii l. : q al -
about $50 or SIS for it. If he sells ton
of sheep, he sells about 50 so worth of
his fertility and gets about $50 or 500
for il The first is return of about 50
from II and wears out the soil; the sec
ond. is a return of about 50 from II and
keeps the land rich.
There are very few fields that get the
cultivation they should. An aerated,
pulverized, mellow soil is the only pay
ing kind to put seed into. A pint of
sifted soil in flower pot will grow a
bigger plant than will quart of coarse
soil. We can't sift grain fields. but we
can come close to it, with the right tools
used. when it is not too wet or dry.
Better farming calls for broader meth
ods-less dependence on any one thing
Dividing your farm to number of rea-
sonably certain staples multiplies your
chances OF hitting it right with some
thing.
1t is the man that puts his eggs all
in one basket" that sends for the pretty
little red aud yellow books on Canadian
land, when poor year comes along. If
he goes there his way of farming won't
succeed any better than ii does here.
Most times it's the mans methods that
beat him--the farm can't help him.
Let's begin better farming right away,
with what we have To make your
poorest acre as good as your best, and
the best one better, is a good way to
look at it. Cattle aud clover and care
will do it. There will be problems to
think out and work out, but that the
fun The world is crammed full of tools
and wrinkles with which to smash diff
Culties.

Just a Thought.

There's a tiny little flower
That blossoms long life's way,
tbs al unpretentious flower
We pass it every day.
1t lifts its lovely little face
To teach n as they pass.
Regardless of his place i'll life
Cnmindful of his class.
1t grows so closely to the earth,
Deep hidden in the grass,
That III have never seen II,
Though they touch it AS they pass.
'Tis only those who pause To rest
Worn out with toll and care,
Who, led by its rare fragrance,
Stoop down and find it there.
oh you who toll on life's highway
Towards heights of worldly pride.
You'll never. never lind the place
This tiny flower hides.
Turn back look in some lonely spot
Not mid the flowers rare.
Eut by some quite waNside stream
You'll find it blooming there.
1t grows for humble hearts alone
Wealth couldn't buy bloom:
Pride. too, must bow her hauSht,
head
To catch it's sweet perfume.
The hegEar on life's steep highway,
Will find it blooming where
He stoops and with respect and heart
He breathes to God a prayer.
Its grown for many years. my friend
God left il here that day.
When in pom to heavens cal
The master Went away.
You ask what name we gave 10 it;
The angles from above
F,ent down and whispered in our car
We call il Jesus love
This TINY flower will never fade.
It's perfume never die;
For it gets its strength and beauty
From the Masters heart on high
And when this world has passed away
And earthly friends have ceased.
We will find this flower blooming,
In Gods corridors of peace.

The least expensive tonic and the
one nearest AZ hand at all times is
water. and got the great majority of
us not only do not drink enough each
day. but actually let some days pass
without drinking a drop of it.
Only q Very few women drink suf-
ticient water during the day to keep
the body clcanscd. The action of tho
iii depends largely upon the supply
of water taken into the system, and
eight glasses a day is mono too many.
Instead of spending several dollars
on a spring tonic. which is generally
composed of bitter herbs and indiffer-
"nt Whiskey. tbs health could he made
better at no expense at all by drinking
plenty Of water each day.
The best results are not gained hy
sulping down a glass of icy water
without taking breath from the time
the lips are pat 70 the glass until it is
drained.
Ice water is never beneficial and
when taken quickly is almost harm
full.
ON the other hand. water that is
slightly warm is not by any means a
pleasant thing to take. SO a happy
medium is suegested-water that is
slightly chilled.
a glass of water fifteen minutes be-
fore breakfast should be slipped slow
~. and if this water is hot one is prac-
tlcally assured Of immunity from indi-
gcstion.
The other seven glasses are sipped
slowly at different times during the

1t is now deemed the better policy for
all to observe uniform rules Of dress.
SO that the poorest among the girls

Such regulations. we believe. will be-
come more and more general and
the girls who have the mean to
dress extravagantly. if they are of tha
right kind of stuff. will be h first
to applaud all such restrictions. The
only thing the Radcliffe girls object
to is the regulation as to hair-they

Here is a practical spring tonic
schedule that should not be difficult
for any one to follow:
In the spring time halve the amount
of food you are used t O eating.
Double the drinking water, and do
not have it ice cold.
Treble the out-of-door exercise.
Quadruple the consumption of fresh
air and laughter.
If o are a mentally active person
include a large amount of ripe fruit
and nuts In Your diet. Eat little meat,
and cereals but seldom.
If your energies are equally divided
between mental and physical labor you
should use fruit and vegetables and
more nuts and cereals than the pure.
