TO REDUCE AREA
OF ALL0TMENTS
REDUCE CHICK -CHOC ALCOT.

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 13.-Con-
gressman Carter has introduced bill
authorizing the secretary of the in
terror to reduce the area of all Choc
taw-C w-Chickasaw allotments to eighty
acres of average allottable land.
Upon the application of any adult
allottee the secretary is also directed
to sell all or any part of his restrict
ed surplus allotment on term pay
ments Of five years, and to deliver to
such alotteesl not less than one
fourth of the proceeds; the remain
der to be used in the improvement
of his restricted homestead. The bill
also removes restrictions on one half
Of the original homestead allotments
of adult allottees of one-half or moro
Indian blood, and less than three
fourths, which by the terms of the
measure, converted into surplus.
Mr.. Carter succeeded in having a
similar bill favorably reported by the
Indian committee during the last
congress, but it failed Of consider
alton on account of a crowded calen-
dar. 1t will undoubtedly become a
law during this or the next session.

]. R. Greenway has had the distinc-
ton of bringing the first load Of new
crop cotton into Denison. Mr.. Green
way drove into the business section
shortly before 6 o'clock yesterday
afternoon with load of this years
cotton and proclaimed himself win-
ner of the pennant in the Cotton Row

Last year Mr.. Greenway planted his
thirty-acre patch about April 10 and
on August % marketed the first
load of seed cotton. He realized s5O.5o
as premium last year. This year
Mr.. Greenway planted from April Is
to 81 and marketed his first cotton
on August II, twelve days earlier
than in 1912. He stated yesterday af-
ternon that he would have another

crops grown, the fourth crop, or
cowpeas, being plowed under for
green manuriug.
If the farmer does not wish to
grow oats it will be necessary
for him to harvest his corn as
early as possible, thoroughly
double disk and work his land
and plant it to wheat instead of
oats. Otherwise the rotation
would be the same. Ifhe wished
to grow still more corn than this
rotation would permit, the farm
er might grow corn for two
years in succession, then oats,
then wheat. Or he might grow
wheat two years in succession,
but he should always pillow under
a crop of COW peas every three or
four years.
Where alfalfa grows we'll it
should be grown in rotation with
other crops. 1t would not be
profitable, however, for the far
mer to pillow up his alfalfa often
er than every five or six years.
Kafir or corn should follow the
alfalfa for the first year or two,
then it would be all right to
plant wheat or oats. In plow-
ing up alfalfa it is always we'll
and highly beneficial to plow I'M
der FIVE or six inches of green al
falfa before frost takes it in the
fall. 1t is also a good practice
to plow the alfalfa shallow in
the fall and then list in the sor-
ghum or corn the following
spring.
Barnyard manure should be
scattered over the alfalfa field in
the fall or winter whenever prac-
ticable. Alfalfa responds readily
to the application of barnyard
manure.
In western Kansas we strongly
advocate the following rotation:
First year, sorghum, probably
Blackhull White, or milo for
grain, or one of the sweet sor-
ghums for forage; second year,
summer fallow. Sorghums leave
the ground in a depleted condition
so far as moisture and available
plant food are concerned. The
fallow brings the soil back to
normal condition, ready for wheat
Wheat is planted after the tallow.
Thus we have two crops IN
three years from the same ground
in western Kansas-one OF sor-
ghum and one of wheat-two
money crops for that district. If
it is properly carried out this ro-
tation will practically insure two
good crops in three years. When
ever practicable, with this rota-
ton we advocate the planting OF
fall rye after removing the sor-
ghums, or at any time after the
last cultivation is given. If the
fall happens to be damp the rye
will grow and make splendid pas
turage. 1t undoubtedly will make
good spring pasturage and can
be plowed under any time in
May, or even to the middle OF
June. The land should then lie
cultivated-not in a dusty condi'
ton, for in this condition the
soil would blow-until wheat
planting time in the fall.
1t would be impossible to enum-
crate here all the cropping COM
binations that could be used to
advantage in different parts OF
this state. The farmer should
understand why q nrnner sue.
