"That tho farmers who made the
biggest profits In feeding cattle were
those who produce their own feeding
stock. and feed silaSe instead OF q
grain and timothy ration.
THAT drilling clover into Iowa pas
lures. or broadcasting the seed early
in the spring will enable forty acres of
treated pastures to produce as much
feed as sixty acres not treated. Not
more than per cent Of the farms
visited were so treated.
Dairy Farming Gaining Ground.
THAT dairy farming Is gaining
ground rapidly.
"That the use OF good pure bred
sires in grading up the herds and the
feeding Of alfalfa and silage have In
many instances doubled the COW pro-
fits.
THAT many Iowa farmers are losing
money in raising horses because they
do not raise the big drafters. Ninty-
five per cent OF the horses on the
farms visited weigh less than 1000
pounds. The five-year-old at 1000
pounds will bring around 5000; a 2.0oo
pound animal will get easily $500.
"a number Of Iowa farmers are
putting a 800 pound hog on the market
in eight to ten months by attention
to feeding"

OPPOSES LAKE DRAINAGE.
Professor Pammel Urges Policy o.

Preservation OF IOWA nSso'"'
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 14.-Prof l.. Fl.
Pammel, on his way back to Ames
from a lecture trip. paused at the state
house long enough to advise state Of
fcials against adoption OF policy OF
drainage of the remaining lakes OF
Iowa.
IL want to say. as an entirely disin-
terested person. that In my opinion.
the state Of Iowa ought not to drain
any more lakes, at least at this time"
he said.
"a policy ought to be determined
upon Of the preservation Of every lake
that can be made into a beauty spot
or game resort, or that the state may
want to use some time for that pur-
! pose. The time will come when Iowa
will want these lakes and want them
very much. The time to get them IL
now, and that by saving them
But is it not true" was asked him.
that some of these lakes are NUS
ances and q menace to health?"
Yes, perhaps" he said, but that Is
because an effort has been made to
drain them and it has failed. 1t Is only
where they have been tinkered with
that they become bad. There is lake
up in Wright county that Is bad. be-
cause they tried to drain 1t and left
it half done. That lake they drained
! near Laurenz was q beautiful little
place and ought to have been kept.
And SO might cite many other in
stances. I have no interest whatever
one way or another. but looking at 1t
from a broad standpoint believe Iowa
should care for all the existing lakes
owned by the state"

Ames. July 14.-In checking up the
records Of the auto farm investigation
tours conducted by the extension de-
partment Of Iowa State College during
June and early in July. 1t is found that
the extension crews travelled 5000

meetings and came into personal con-
farmers.

New Ulm review., 1913-07-30

While every one is keeping an eye
on his premises to have them neat and
attractive there are some of the trees
growing along various walks of the
city that are getting out of bonds and
proving something OF . nuisance.
They have not been properly trimmed
out among the lower branches and
many of them hang so low IS to be
considerably in the way OF anyone
carrying an umbrella and some
branches are so low they even
sndanger the eyes of passers by.
There is q city ordinance which re-
auires citizens to keep trees trimmed
10 an foot height. It might be :
good idea for the city fathers to send
9 man out to do this work inasmuch
- many citizens are not equipped with
proper tools. for the work. The cost
OF the labor could be brought to 3
minium in this way and assessed
against the property served. This
would not prevent any one from taking
care of his own trees if he preferred to
do so.
