lowing corn, peas, potatoes or root
crops. Barley is one of the hes,
nurse crops to use where the desire lie
to seed down the clovers or naked
grasses.

other of our common cereals. An ex.
cellent rotation is clover and timothy

WHEN TO SOW BARLEY

If the season Is far enough advanced
and all danger Of severe weather past,
the barley is sowed, usually about the
middle Of April. A drill is the best
implement for this purpose, as II dis
tributes the seed evenly and at a uni
form depth. The depth may vary to
suit the condition OF the soil The
nearer the seed TO the moist soil, the
better. This e~en distribution, at a
Uniform dep1h, promotes an even
growth and maturity.

SEED BED FOR BARLEY.

Whatever the nature Of the soil may
be, wen prepared seed bed ia neces-
sary. The ground should be. plowed
and worked until deep, we'll pulver.
lied, level seed bed is obtained Such
a bed win most efficiently aid In sup
plying the necessary factors for ger
mination, heat, moisture and oxygen.
As general rule, when the seed bed
ia properly prepared. 1t needs no furth.
er cultivation after planting. II the
sesson is dry and the ground lumpy
and loose from spring blowing, It may
be rolled and followed with an even

Mans Eaotism.

Early IN her speech the militant suf-
fragette struck the keynote Of emanci-
patton from masculine control.
The day of tyranny is past" she
said. Men may command. but we no
longer obey"
1t was a stirring speech. At intervals
throughout its delivery an insignificant
looking little man in the rear of the
hall called out, Louder, please" and
each time the speaker pitched her voice
in a higher key. When, in obedience
to his often repeated requests. she had
apparently attained a vocal limit she
said:
"Can you not hear what I sayT'
Perfectly" said the little man.
'SThen why have you been asking me
