New Start for Food Law.

The federal pure food law has been
in operation for nearly six years. While
nobody can deny that much good has
resulted from it, the law has always
been vague so far as it's administration
is concerned, says the American Miller.
The question of the laws admins
tration should be definitely fixed by en-
actment. Not only food manufacturers,
but the administrators of the law,
should know exactly where they stand
At present there has been clashing of
authority that has been productive of
strife and apparently temporary ces
sation of activity.
The law should be amended in many
particulars. The six years. operation
should suggest to those who have had
the administering of the law what
amendments as to definitions and as tt
administration will best serve the
righteous purposes of the law, prevent
prosecution on mere technicalities, an(
safeguard public welfare. Now is The
time to amend the law for the better
And if not amended, there is neverthe
less sufficient power lodged in the presi
dent IS hands to affect the administra
ton of it through his appointees.

ROTATION OF GARDEN CROPS
Too Much of One Thing on the Same
Spot Robs the Soil and Lowers
Yeld-Can Be Prevented

Many gardens fail because the same
crops are planted year after year. The
soil will not prosper under this treat
ment. Certain elements used by the
plants grown become almost extinct
This calls for expensive fertilizers 10
keep up the production, or the soil
must be used for something else.
This may be prevented by proper ro-
tation Of crops, gardeners at the Kan
sas Agricultural college say.
The land is treated differently IN
der rotation, the faults of one year
being corrected by good management
in another year. By this method no
one element of plant food Is exhausted
Rotation tends to even up the SOIL.
One crop leaves the land in good phys
ical condition for another. 1t gives IL
hLmus, which all crops must have.
In some years green crops will be
turned under. This gives the SOIL
almost immediate available plant
food. and larger supply of nitrogen
The gardener should have plan OF
rotation mapped out which will repeat
every GLIB or any other certain num-
Der of years according to the e4tehI
of the field and the time desired. In
doing this the same amount of all vege-
tables may be grown one year with
another. The one requirement OF this
plan would be to have the plots OF
ground the same size.
/ AS an example of rotation. potatoes
e may be followed by beans, peas, OF
e cabbage. In general. one crop should
: be followed by another of different
t nature 1t is not necessary to change
the plots every year. Put one plot IL
= sweet corn, say, for two years, foi
9 lowed by two years Of peas. Thi'
should be followed by two years
potatoes In this manner the weed'
y that become so obnoxious under sam
20 cultivation will be checked or &c
stroyed.

COST OF KEEPING GOOD COWS
Pertinent Question That No TWO wr'e
ers Seem to Agree on-Vlewpo'nt
10 Entirely Wrong.

This Is always a pertinent question:
but unfortunately no two writer's agree
In their figures. Mr.. Robert Edkins
of Westtown, Pa, who has dairy OF
| 10 COWS whose average yield OF milk
is $500 pounds figures the cost OF
keeping at $152.02 per COW. Prof. Fra
ser of the Illinois college OF agricul-
ture places the cost at $91 per COW.
Nearly all writer's figure In lot OF
| items that the average farmer pays
no attention to. But 1t is very evil
dent that it is costing farmers consid-
erably more than they are aware OF
to keep their cows and that Is one
reason why they do not find more mon
ey in their pocket at the end OF the
year.
Right here steps In that everlasting
question of keeping only good cows.
Back of that question is the other OF
farmer showing enterprise and courage
in his determination to improve his
herd. 1t is simply amazing to men OF
sense and discernment, why there are
so many farmers who seem bewitched
to stay by the poor COW. They are
beating themselves yearly out OF good
-. profits, many suffering loss Instead
l and yet they will not buy a good reg
t istered bull and go at the work reso
l lutely of raising cows that 1t will pay
! to keep.
The sticking point with them II
. many cases seems to be the price tina
o a good bull costs. They are not at al
= concerned over what they are losing
every year They will pay $3.50 for
: good farm horse and choke to suffoca
9 ton over paying 5000 for a bull tina
! will earn every year twice what tn
y horse will. They look at things fror
wrong viewpoint.

Manure May Prevent HeavIne.

Work over the manure In the yard
and barn cellars and lay it up in rect
angular piles. Frequent handling Will
prevent heating. Have the manure
well rotted for early crops.
A light dressing of decomposed ma
nure will prevent late sown grain
and grass plants from heaving by the
spring frosts. Cart out the manure
when the snow is on. but while the
ground is still frozen. Spread from
heaps and not from wagon.

Realization of the fact that $4,000 of

This dummy is taken. down every

night. He says a sheep killing dog
will not go near enough to the dummy
to discover that it is a bogus man.
