Sand Pile Is Blamed for
Scarlet Fever Outbreak

That a sand-pile in a park near the
Watsessing School, Bloomfield, is re-
sponsible for the nine cases Of scarlet
fever among the pupils of that insti-
tuition is the theory of a physician in
that section. Several years ago when
there was a similar on tbreak of the
disease among children in the kinder
garten class. it was believed they had
contracted it from sand in which they
had played and 1t was abolished.
All of the patients in the present
outbreak are in the Essex County
Isolation Hospital, in Soho. DIR. Jo-
seph c. Sailee, health inspector, says
there is no danger of a further out
break.

The difference in the working of a
cutaway and solid disk is that the
cutaway penetrates the ground much
deeper and throws it up in much
coarser condition than the solid disk.
The solid disk pulverizes the soil
much better.
The double disk harrow Is desirable
for farmers who wish to do two disk
ings at the same time. The front
harrow can be set to out-throw and
the rear harrow to in-throw. This
will thoroughly pulverize the soil and
leave the field level. The main ad-
vantage of the double disk harrow is
that if you desire to use the regular
disk, you can remove the rear attach
ment very quickly and easily.
This will depend on the nature OF
the soil, the angle given the disks,
and the weight of the man on the
harrow. AS a rule, it is not advisable
to purchase a disk harrow with more
than eight l6-inch disks for use on

SQUARE SlLOS.

Ira Wampler. Carthage, Missouri,
writes as follows: 81 wish to build a
square silo in one corner of my barn.
but do not know the best way to pro-
coed. Any information you can give
will be appreciated"
The square sio is fast going out of
use. because of the difficulty in con-
structing same in such a way as to
make it profitable. Several years ago.
or. in other words, when silo building
was in its infancy. good many square
slos were constructed, but they were
soon abandoned for several reasons
mainly because 1t was impossible to
prevent leaking at the sides, and Sec
ond the silage spoiled in the corners
The next step of advancement was to
board up the corners, which made the
slo more of a round structure, and
the latest development has been the
round silo, which is considered far
superior to the square type of con-
struction.
We are sending you under separate

STABLEI,,MANURE
IS NOT EXCELLED

howard TlufiUge, POftcrNllle, New
York, writes as follows: 81 am Il far
mer living in Erie county, New York.
The soil raises very good crops in
everything excepting wheat and oats.
/ past few years has been fifteen or
twenty bushels to the acre, as com
pared to fifty bushels to an acre few
years ago. How can this land be i'm
proved?"
The principal plant food elements
are nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium,
and calcium. These are necessary for
he production of crops. il any one
Of these elements is deficient, it will
mean that the crop production will be
lessened. Continuous cropping with
out rotation. combined with poor cul-
tivation, is bound to result in de
creased yields.
The nitrogen can be replenished BY
growing leguminOus crops, such as
clovers. cowpeas, soy beans, vetches,
etc. Also, by applying stable manure,
or blowing under legume as a green
manuring crop. BY doing this you
not only supply nitrogen to your soil,
but you improve its physical condition
by adding vegetable matter.
Very few soils require potassium.
This is especially so of sandy soils,
although if the soil is not in good
physical condition, the potassium may
not be available but if you supply the
vegetable matter either in :he form of
green manure or stable manure, 1t Will
tend to make the potassium available.
1t may be necessary to supply phOs-
phorus in the form of commercial
fertilizer, which may be done by using
finely ground phosphate rock, provid-
ing the soil is in the proper physical
condition. The phosphate rock will
cost you only about half as much and
contains practically twice as much
phosphorus as acid phosphate. The
best way of handling rock phosphate
is to spread it in the stables with the
bedding or to scatter 1t on the manure
pile. The decaying of the stable
manure will tend to render the phos.
phorus available.
The other principle element, which
is especially important if you expect
to grow leguminous crops such as
clover and alfalfa, is calcium. This
may be supplied by the use Of finely
ground limestone rock. The need OF
calcium is shown by the presence OF
horse sorrel. and the failure of legumes
to grow.
There is another way OF determining
the acidity Of the soil or the lack Of
calcium by the use Of litmus paper,
which may be purchased at any drug
store. Place the most soil around the
litmus paper for ten or fifteen minutes.
II the blue paper is turned to pinkish
or reddish color, it will indicate that
your soil requires lime. Finely ground
limestone may be applied at the rate
Of from one to eight tons to the acre,
depending upon how badly your soil
needs calcium, but the usual applica
ton varies from one to four tons.
The other factors which enter into
crop production are the selecting CT
good seed and the preparing of the
soil 1t is possible that the seed that
you are using has become somewhat
run out and needs to be replaced by
pure seed. Combine with this the
preparation of a good seed bed-which
Is very important in order to obtain a
satisfactory yield of small grain.

HORSE SUGGESTIONS,

Horses are very fond of va
riety. and fussing always pays
in the better condition and great
or usefulness of the horse.
Never whip Il horse when he
SHES. 1t will increase his fear.
Confidence in his driver will do
much to overcome fear of OBJ
jects.
1t is just as necessary to fit a
collar to Il horse as it is to tit
shoe to the foot.
A man cannot work on boiled
turnips alone: neither can a
horse work on a diet Of straw
and fodder
1t costs a good deal of money
to buy satisfactory team. In
most cases this can be avoided
by the farmer raising his own.
Always tie your team or put
them in barn when you go to
town. 1t Is much cheaper than
having to buy a new harness
and wagon.
The horse that is all the time
being tapped with the whip new
err knows what his master means
by 1t and comes to think he
means just nothing.
