 Romero was seated upon the Santa Fe tracks, when the polio, man who later arrested him hove in sight. The officer paused and overheard words that sounded something like this: Tt is the general belief that insanity. the most fearful affliction that besets hu- manitE, is d hopeless condition and one in which prevention is of no value.'

little poorer. don't intend to let
that disease get started again
Mr.. Munger has solved the problem.
A rotation, bringing in crops other
than the potato family, has put the
dreaded disease out of existence.
This experience is only one of many
that are benefiting progressive farm
ers all over the country. In speaking
of plant diseases, Professor L. H.
Pammel, of the Botany department
of Iowa State college, saws, "The n.y.
genie treatment or rotation of crops
promises the best results in eradica-
ton of plant diseases on the average
farm"
Prof A. L. Bake of the same de-
partment, says that the best known
treatment for 80 per cent of the para
site diseases of economic plants, is
crop rotation, using crops of other
families than the ones on which the
disease occurs.
Other plant diseases In which ro-
tation of crops is beneficial are wilt
of sweet corn, black rot, and club
root of cabbage, flax wilt, leaf blight
wilt, and root rot of cotton, leaf spot
of beets, early blight Of potato, pota-
to scab and wilt of COW pea and
watermelon.

NEED CROP ROTATION
BY R. M. FUTILE. Iowa State College.

Even though the fertility of the soil
could be permanently fixed so that
the crop-producing power would not
diminish, still the necessity for crop
rotation would be as strong as ever.
That is perhaps a broad statement,
but Mr.. Jacob Munger, of Clay county,
Iowa, clings to that policy like sand
burrs to mules tail.
Mr.. Munger is somewhat of po-
tato fancier and believes that pota-
toes are a money crop in northern
Iowa. Five years ago he purchased
rich eighty acre farm and put half
Of it into potatoes. Several of the
vines became infested with white and
brown spots which in many cases
killed them.
However, hs gathered an enormous
crop Of large and seemingly sound
potatoes which he stored under
ground for four months. When he
removed his crop from storage, about
half of the tubers were infested with
rot and were valueless. But encourag-
ed by his enormous ~op, Mr.. Munger
again planted potatoes upon the same
forty acres. This time he sprayed

frequently and succeeded in Keeping
the vines green, growing and healthy.
"That spraying does the business"
thought he and proceeded to harvest
his crop. To his surprise, about one
fourth of the potatoes were already
rotten and that meant immediate
disposal of the remainder of the crop
at any price he could get.
Disguised with the potato bust
ness, Mr.. Munger limited his next
years potato patch to five acres in
the garden, and raised excellent crops
of corn, oats and wheat on the old
potato forty.
Potato growing is like steer feed
ing-a habit difficult to break-and
now Mr.. Munger is back in the pota-
to business. Last years crop on the
old troublesome forty was wonder,
not sign of dry rot infection Of
leaves or tubers.
will he use the same soil for his
next crop?" is the logical qestion.
"No," he says, "I'll use the other
forty next year even if the soil is a

Up TO DATE STOCK FEEDING
By PAUL JOHNSON, low. stat. cou.s.


Last summer Capt. w. S. A. Smith
of Leeds, Iowa, topped the Sioux
market with two carloads of mixed
heifers and steers that sold for $9.75.
These cattle were fattened on sum-
mer pasture of alfalfa and grass. The
other part of the ration was an aver
age of 20 TBS. Of ear corn per head,
shovelled into the hunks each morn
ing.
These cattle were purchased as feed
ers for $5.25 and were not very fine
looking bunch when bought. It was
surprising, however, to see how uni
formly they faftened out. Altogether
the captain fed over SO head on pas
turs and though this was but small
Or part Of his feeding operations, it
was not the least profitable. One
hundred and twenty head of large hogs
followed these cattle and fattened on
the pasture and droppinEs. These
were sold during the summer. In
this experience ofsCapt. Smith, there
were two outstanding features: First,
the profit from summer feeding; and,
second, the value of alfalfa to the
Iowa farmer. Both of these practices

produced more economical and larger
returns than older methods.
The SO head were fed on pasture
of 80 acres. This had originally been
an alfalfa meadow and though the
blue grass had come in to a consider
able extent, the alfalfa still FREEDOM
ated. OF course, in time the blue
grass will choke the alfalfa out but
last summer in spite of the fact that
there was over one steer to the acre,
and also quite large bunch of hogs,
feeding after the herd, the pasture
grew so luxuriantly that it was now
ed twice, producing considerable hay.
In addition to this pasture, there is
maintained on an average of over
100 acres of alfalfa meadow which
produces from 1-2 to tons of valu-
able hay. 1t is interesting that al
though one can find specimens Of
nearly every variety of noxious weeds
on this farm, they are held in check
by the alfalfa in the rotation prac-
ticed, and never bother to any extent
in the grain fields. AS result of the
growing of alfalfa and the manure
from the extensive feeding operations,
the fertility and producing abil-
ity of the fields on this farm have
been mail tanned, and even increase.
Then two things-stock feeding and
alfalfa growing-have built up this
farm and filled the owners pocket
book. Every bit of roughage is saved
to be fed to the stock Most of the
small grains are cut quite green, be-
cause the owner wants the nutrients
in the straw to be as digestable as
possible. Most of the oats are fed
as sheaf oats.
Silage forms a large part of the
winter ration, with corn, alfalfa hay,
sheaf oats and cotton seed meal.
That it pays to be up-to-date and
get out of old worn-out ruts may be
shown when one looks over the de-
tailed accounts kept on this farm.
1t may be summed up in the state
ment that during the dry period of
1911-12, the profit side of the ledger
for the years operations on the farm
showed nearly $4,000 to the good.

Tn. Kind That Yielded iii Bushels Per Acre.
BY EARL ELIJAH, low. state College.

The actual harvest of Silver King,
the promising white corn Of northern
Iowa, bred by Iowa State college ex-
perimenters, has proved no disap-
pointment to those who expected big
things Of It. Early fall estimates
were made running as high as 80
bushels per acre. Prof. H. d. Hughes,
who has had charge Of the work, says
that the multiplication plots turned
OF an average of 80 bushels per acre.
One crossing block yielded at the
rate of Ill bushels and at the same
time produced crop of rape stand

nor Hughes suggests that not too
much emphasis should be laid on the
eact that this one block produced at
