SAVE SOIL FOR MOISTURE.
Land Should be Disked as Early in
Spring as Possible.

Although the disk harrow is used on
large number of the farms of Kan
sas, many farmers do not use it when
it will do the most good
The uses of the disk harrow are
many, and without doubt it is one of
the most valuable implements on the
farm. 1t may be used to conserve
moisture, break up cloddy ground aft
er plwing, prepare hard and dry soils
for blowing, and destroy weeds after
they have grown beyond the control
OF the smoothing harrow.
The best way to preserve soil MICS
ture is to disk the land as early in the
spring as the conditions of the soil
permit. By doing this, large share
of the water from spring rains and
melted SHOWS is kept from evaporat-
ing, and by changing the texture of
the top soil, to the depth the disk
goes, the surface soil, where roots
start to develop, will become warmer.

the development of weed seeds so they
The most effective way to use the
may be destroyed.
disk in the spring work is to lap the
harrow half, and in doing this the
furrow between the sets of disks will
be entirely filled and the surface will
be left level
When labor is scarce and the farm
er must save time, the double acting
disk should be used This is a new i'm
plemcnt just placed on the market
and is considered by the authorities
OF the Kansas Agricultural College to
be built on good principle. Although
ii has heavier draft, there seems
to be little doubt that it will come in
10 general use in the near future.
Often. after blowing. heavy rain
comes and compacts the soil, leaving
the best condition possible for rapid
loss OF this water by evaporation.
This land should be gone over with a
disk as soon as the ground will per
nit Many farmers follow the binder
with the disk, that is, they have the
disk run behind the binder before the
grain is shocked. This is good prac
tice. a. the stubble ground is then in
the best condition to catch any rain
that might fall before blowing, and the
soil is left in such a condition that
blowing is made much easier.
When small grains are to follow
corn or potatoes the use of the disk
harrow will often make the pillow un-
necessary. but either the disk must
be run deep or a cutaway disk must
be used The chief objections to the
cutaway disk are that it does not pull
verize the soil so WELL and it is not so
easy to sharpen as the full-bladed
disk. Although it may run deeper,
there is no appreciable difference in
the draft of the two.

HAPPY FARMERS.
They Have Every Cause for Joy on
Next Thanksgiving Day.

A marvelously fortunate wear is this
of 1912 for this land of ours. The gov
eminent crop report of a few days ago
renews once more the proof that all
things are uniting for the welfare OF
Americans 1t is an amazing showing,
300,00O,0O0 bushels of spring wheat be-
ing reported as in sight, where last
year the yield was only l90,000.000
bushels, and the year before 100000
600. Added to the winter wheat, which
IN spite of the soft wheat losses III our
own section of the country. will still
pass the 1911 mark, the total yield of
this grain will run well above 100000
600 bushels, and if private advices are
reliable, even above 800,000,000 bush
els.
We have had but two years in the
past when the 700000,000 mark was
passed, 1906 and 1901, and theoutlook
is that the return per bushel for the
harvest now available will exceed that
of either of these.
Nor is wheat the only crop that is
practically assured of reaching record
figures. Corn, potatoes, barley, rye
and some others are already in the
class of bumper yields. The indica
tons amount to assurance that they
will exceed any previous aggregate.
While the American fields are TEEN
ing with their produce across the ocean
is heard the cry of distress. Cold
weather and prolonged rainfall have
played havoc there The land is sod
den and unfruitful. What crops have
grown are drowning in the floods. The
American farmer, with the barns bulg-
ing with the yield of its acres will get
big prices for its big stock of food
supplies.
A bountiful harvest and a strong de
mand should make the farmer of this
country happy man on Thanksgiving
day

SAVE THE MANURE PILE.
Poor Business Policy to Allow Half
This Product Go to Waste.

Nearly one-half the money value OF
manure is lost by piling it UP in the
yard. This is a startling statement and
should receive the attention of every
farmer. 1t is a poor business policy to
allow half of this important farm pro-
duct to go to waste. 1t should be con-
sidered valuable crop and handled in
such a way as to produce the greatest
profit to the farmer.
Manure contains the three essential
plant foods-nitrogen phosphoric acid
and potash About one-half of the
plant food it contains is nitrogen, and
here is where the greatest loss occurs.
When fresh manure is piled up it
soon begins to heat and ferment, due
to the action of bacteria. By this pro-
cess the plant food elements are
changed from insoluble TO soluble
compounds ready for plant use. Most
of the nitrogen is changed to ammon-
ium carbonate, which is very volatile,
The heat of fermentation breaks up the
ammonium carbonate. and the nitro
gen escapes in the form of ammonia,
the odor of which can be detected
around manure piles The soluble
plant food is also dissolvd by the rain.
The drainage from manure piles is
very rich in plant foods and should
not go to waste.
One ton of fresh manure is worth
almost as much as two tons of rotted
manure. Fresh barnyard manure is
worth about sos After it is rotted
il is worth only $l02. This is source
of tremendous loss to the farmer and
stockman.-Farm and Fireside.
