parts Of the county have repeatedly
signified their interest in the project,
and this second annual county fair
will no doubt be hummer. 1t is
the idea Of the people here to foster

put it on substantial basis, but it is
their idea that it should be for the
farmers, by the farmers and for the

most cordially invited to be here
next Tuesday evening for the meet

will help to show the results OBJ

clean summer fallow in place Of the
intertilled crop.
Where money crops are made q
feature of any system of farming,
there is q constant tendency for hui
mus and organic matter to be lost
from the soil. This loss has an in.
furious effect upon the physical prop
critics of the soil and often in
marked degree. After having lost
humus and organic matter a soil is
more apt to blow" Furthermore
such soil is not so easily titled when
wet and Is more apt to run together
or puddle. The water holding capac7
ity of the soil is decreased by the
loss Of humus, as humus Is valuable
storage agent of water. With these
facts in mind it is of the greatest im1
portance that any system OF rotal
ton which has for its main feature
the production of grain crops should
look towards the retention Of the
humus within the soil. The desired
results may be secured ~ by the APP
plication Of barnyard manure; ~ by
the blowing under Of green manure

clover: (3) by the inclusion Of pas,
ture into rotation-the rotting Of the
grass roots or Of the legume roots

PLoW OF MUCH IMPORTANCE
Not Yet Found Possible to supplant
It's Use With Any Success
Proper Depth to Plow.

Ry L. r. WAIDRoN, Superintendent
Dickinson Sub-station. North Dnkota.)
The plow is very ancient instru-
ment of tillage, but 1t is only quite
recently that 1t has taken on Its Inn
proved form. The pillow was modern
lied less than 100 years ago. Flowing
Is very important for the success of
the crop and 1t has not been found
possible to supplant it's use with any
degree of success. The proper action
of the pillow is to shear the soil into
series of thin layers. If the ground
Is too dry, the soil is turned over in
Jumps. If the ground Is too wet, the
soil Is packed together and puddled.
In either case one loses the cultivat-
ing effect of the plowing and the soil
Is often much injured. The plow is
perhaps the most efficient tool we
have for the forming of soil mulch.
The loose layer of soil formed by
blowing effectually prevents the rise
Of soil moisture from the deeper lay
ers. When the soil is too dry to
pillow the soil may be rendered moist
by disking the land. forming mulch,
and thus causing the upper few inches
Of soil to become moist.
There is much dispute concerning
the proper depth of blowing and also
the proper time Of blowing. With tho
Increased depth of blowing the work
becomes more difficult and expensive
and this fact is responsible largely
for the shallow blowing we see on
every hand. AS rule. blowing is apt
to be too shallow rather than too
deep

Q.-Why will not baking soda work
we'll with sweet milk?
Ans.-Miss Minna A. Stoner, dean
homo economics department.:
Baking soda is an alkaline sub.
stance and must be used with the neo-
essary acid when used as leavening
agent. In making coughs and batterB,
baking soda readily gives up q gas
called carbon dioxide upon treatment
with one OF the following acids: Sour
milk. cream Of tartar, vinegar-wRter.
rhubarb Juice, lemon juice, molasses
and sour butter milk. The carbon di.
oxide is entrapped in the dough or
batter. and when the dough or batter
Is baked the gas Is given OF and the
cells are fixed. giving porous texture
that Is desirable In quick breads as
well rs yeast breads.
OFF q gasoline engine Is. to be
used for pumping and for grinding
feed which will be the more economi-
cal, to use the same engine or to have
two?
Ans.-R M. Dolvc, professor of farm
mechanics:
A six.horsepower engine will prove
the most economical size for feed
grinding on the average farm. Four
horsepower engines are often used.
but the larger engine will be found
more satisfactory. 1t will usually be
found more satisfactory and econom-
tcal to use separate engines for feed
grinding and water pumping.
Q.-What are the advantages OF II.

To give the public and more espe-
cially those who need the services Of
