NO POSSIBILITY OF DOUBT
Why Western Bishop Was Convinced
Of the Ancient Lineage of His
Eastern Entertainers.

A western bishop once attended a
general convention in the east and
was entertained by New England
family of long and honorable, II not
lovable, lineage. They made no Sc.
cret of a time-won superiority over
any one from the new and crude west,
and cited their Pilgrim ancestors coz.
stantly. The bishop was minded to
bear this in Christian humility and
forbearance, and did. But on his re.
turn home, he recounted his expert.

spoke her mind as 1t is the privilege
of her kind to do, even where mere
man must be silent.

is such an old one she remarked

were Pilgrims?'

From the very first the French com.

with all manner Of litigation, the ma.

were the yellow fever and malaria,
which killed off the engineers and
laborers by the thousand. In the last
three months Of 1884 the death rate
per thousand was nearly 100, and In
September, 1885. It reached 1867.
Sanitary science had not yet learned

enough to insure the failure OF de

PLANTING DRY LAND POTATO
Good Plan to Mark Field Both Way,
and to Plant Tubers at Cross Mark
to Save Labor.


tBy G. L. FITCH. Colorado Agricultural
College)
Experience has proven that the dry.
lander should plant both early and
late varieties Of potatoes. to catch the
season at one end or the other. Early
Ohios have been most planted for
early, but above the ditchare apt to
be rusty feshed from soil heat In
dry summer Irish Cobblers are
better in this respect. and yield more
In q good year. Pearls mostly are
planted for late.
1t is good plan on dry land TO
mark the field both ways and to plant
the potatoes at the cross mark. and
cultivate them both ways. SO as 10
reduce hand work. 1t is risky to plant
on ground in dry year with dried
out subsoil. but. with good spring
and subsoil In good condition, wide
spacing Jnakes potatoes fairly sure
where leaf roll has not appeared.
There are many excellent dry land
regions for potato growing in the
western half Of Colorado. and the ta-
Bile lands Of the northeast have pro-
duced good crops. New settlers In
the plains In the southern part of the
states should be cautious. as potatoes
have been o complete failure in most
places In that region.
Dry lands. notably the Arkansas d.
vide, have suffered severely from po.
tato leaf roll, and new settlers should
make careful inquiry regarding their
neighbors' experience in 1911 and
1912 before giving much land or work
to potatoes.
Nearly every new conner seems to
have to learn for himself that we have
conditions and localities where II Is
cheaper to purchase potatoes at the
store than to try TO raise them.

TILLAGE IS OF IMPORTANCE
Brings Soil Into Suitable Condition
and Capable Of Retaining Large
Amount OF Water.

tBy JAMES d. MARSHALL. Colorado
Agricultural College)
The work OF tillage or cultivation
as 1t is most commonly called Is one
OF the most important operations on
the farm as practically all crops are
dependent upon II. To obtain the
best results the subject OF tillage
should be clearly and thoroughly un.
derstood as well as the best methods
OF attaining them.
Good tillage has two important
functions. The first is to bring the
soil into suitable condition SO as
TO obtain a deep, friable and compact
seed.bed. one capable OF absorbing
and retaining large amounts of water
and also to make plant food more
available. The second function Il to
establish a mulch which will decrease
to a minimum the loss OF water by
evaporation.
Tillage operations are divided into
two main divisions. the preparation
OF the seed bed and the subsequent
treatment OF the growing crop. In the
preparation OF the seed bed. plowing
disking and narrowing are the most
important operations while in the sub
sequent operations narrowing or cult
waiting are the functions receiving the
most attention, as they not only con.
serve moisture. but they keep the
weeds down. In many instances they
cover them up and add humus TO the
soil. They. also, by stirring the soil
around. admit air which is very es.
sential TO bacterial activity.

acids formed from the decomposing
litter. forming insoluble compounds.
Thus they are not SO quickly available
TO the plants as the original excre-
ment
There are also various losses in
quantity which the constituents may
snifer before they reach the land. In
the yard much urine may run to waste.
Ammonia will disappear as gas In the
stable during decomposition Of the
urine and further loss OF nitrogen
may occur In the barnyard.
