A WOMAN'S SACRIFICE

God Almighty did not create
man to hide behind the petticoats
of a woman. God Almighty did
create man to be the protector of
womanhood and to assume re-
sponsibility for his own blunders
whether criminal or otherwise.
William Sulzer of New York
scored a pitiful finish. 1t was
not a dramatic one. II WAS not
heroic. He did not place his
back to the wall and face his
foes like a man with red blood in
his veins and iron IN his heart.
There was no climax on the
Sulzer side. A woman loved the
sorely tried governor of New
York. Loving him, she offered
herself as a sacrifice. He
accepted it, but the world over
men who are manly will forgive
the woman and turn away in
disgust from the man. Even if
she had been guilty of using his
campaign funds for gambling
purposes in Wall street, it was
the duty of the husband to have
faced his foemen and to have
gone down with drums beating
and flags flying. In Sulzer there
is a yellow streak. When a man
has the yellow streak in his
makeup he cannot hideit. When
the time for action comes the
streak appears. When there is

A Manure Pile That is Losing it:

AS the manure gathers it is packed
down by the stock running over it and
kept moist by the liquid manure. In
this condition there is very little loss.
This method is easily followed when
there is an open shed close to the
horse or COW stable.
Some men allow their manure to
rot before applying it to the land
This is common practice with gar.
deners. When treated in this man
ner manure acts more quickly, be:
cause it is we'll advanced in decom

this method cannot be recommended
The manure has lost about one-half
it's organic matter and some of it's
phosphorus and potassium. 1t should
be allowed to rot in the soil so as to
save practically all of it's fertlizing

FEED THE CROP TO STOCK
LIVE STOCK MORE PROFITABLE
THAN GRAIN FARMING.
BY r. 3. Mumford, Dean Of College OF
Agriculture, University Of
Missouri.

What the farmer wants is scheme
of soil conservation that is profitable
II live stock farming conserves fer
tility, but is not profitable, then ii
need not be further considered.
But live stock farming is profitable,
and is more protita We than any other
system of permanent agriculture that
has been used. The average annual
net income from stock and dairy
farms in the United States for the
ten-year period ending with the year
1899 was 1142, while the income from
hay and grain farms was only $7.72
per acre. In Missouri the income
from stock farms was 1856 and from
grain farms $7.69. The most prosper
Gus and best managed farms through,
out the corn belt today are the farms
where live stock is large. II not a
chief factor of production.
Exclusive grain farming as prac-
ticed from New England west to the
Dakotas has left behind trail of
depleted soils, and where carried on
for too long time, ruined farms and
abandoned homes have marked the
way When we remember that at u
very conservative estimate the stover
or stalks, leaves and stems of the
corn plant contain not less than %
per cent of the total feeding value of
the entire plant, and that under sys,
TENS of exclusive grain farming all
this material is so utilized that only
its numus value g saved, we must
conclude that there is another method
whereby this valuable feed-stuff may
be first converted into animal prod
ucts. Such a method is certainly to
be recommended.
What is needed to maintain and
improve the fertility of the soil? The
investigations on this matter are clear.
There are four things needed under
existing conditions to supply, directly
or indirectly, to the land. These are
vegetable matter or humus phos.
phosus. nitrogen and potash. 1t is
correct for us to say that in any we'll
planned system of live stock farming.
the humust supply can be easily sus'
tanned. The nitrogen can be rapidly
increased, and the phosphorus and
potash supplied either through the ap'
plication of fertilizer directly, or by
the purchase of foods to be first fed
to animals and the manure later ap-
piled to the land.
Live stock farming carried on for
the purpose of farm improvement Ia
not an untried experiment. Not only

CONSERVE THE MANURE
IT RAPIDLY LOSES ITS VALUE IF
NOT PROPERLY CARED FOR.
BY N. F. Miller, Professor Of Aeron.
omy, College of Agriculture,
University of Missouri.

OF the different ways of handling
manure no other is so saving OF fer
,ility as that of hauling and scatter
:lg the manure as it is made. This
gives the least possible chance for
loss, either through teaching or fer
mantation. 1t is true that there are
millions Of dollars worth of manure
wasted annually in Missouri through
improper handling. 1t is a common
Ind a wasteful practice to pile the
manure out of doors and haul it onto
tha fields two or three times year.
Experiments have been made which
show that manure exposed to the
weather for 100 days may lose half OF
it's fertility
There are at least two good ways of
handling the manure. That of haul
ing to the field directly is one of the
nest. When the ground is too soft to
haul onto the field, the manure is
stored under roof.
Another practical method is to al
low the manure to accumulate under

Solving the Problem OF Fertility

BILE fertilizer and should be gathered
y the bedding and handled with the
solid manure.
The two common sources of loss
ire by teaching and by fermentation.
rhe first is prevented by keeping the
manure under shed. The second is
prevented by keeping tn manure moist
" by keeping it compact so the air is
'xcluded. When pile of manure
smokes" it is losing fertility and
hould be scattered or moistened by
curing water over it.
AS soon as the farmers know how
much their lands need the manure
md know the conditions which pre-
cnt the manure from losing its fer
ility, it will be handled as carefully
