Now, study the same stretches of
road after a good raihstorm. You
will see that one road holds small

keep the road soft and so allow it to
be cut up by the wheels of the wa

How do road builders keep water

to the side bitches? How much
higher should the center, or crown,
of the road be than the outside

bitches get full of rubbish or
weeds?y When a ditch along a road
holds water or collects it into pools
how does this injure the road?
:" Using Drag on Earth Roads
Have you ever seen homemade
road drag? It is made by splitting
! in two a log six or eight inches in
thickness and about six or eight
feet long. The two halves of the
log are set three feet apart with
their smooth faces forward and up
right. They are fastened together
with braces. A pair of horses are
hitched to a chain fastened to the
front half of the log. Should these
logs be drawn straight down the
road, or should it be dragged at a
slant so that a little of the loose
earth will slide toward the center
Of the road? Should the dragging
be started next to the ditch, or at
the center of the road? Should you
drag the whole road in one way, or
drag each half of it in an opposite
direction? Should the dragging be
done when the road is dry, or after
it has rained? A good strong pail

FALL APPLICATION OF PHOs-
'h.2 2Ea.s,,.ss PLATES. sgs 81 &t 81
Grain Yields May BE Increased BY
Flowing Under Phosphates With
Manure or Vegetable Matter.

Only slowly available commercial
fertilizers should be applied in the
fall for a following spring crop.
Prominent among these is raw rock
phosphate applied because it sup
plies the element phosphorus. It is
applied as very fine powder, con-
tanning about ~ per cent phospho-
rus or the equivalent of from % to
80 per cent phosphoric acid. An
idea of it's extreme tineness may be
gained from the fact that about 80
per cent of it will usually pass
through what chemists call 100
mesh sieve-that is one which has
10000 openings per square inch.
Acid phosphate is made by treat
ing the rock form with sulphuric
acid, but this makes the phospho-
rus cost about four times as much
in this more available form. For
fall application, however, the
ground rock phosphate is better be-
cause of its cheapneess, because Of
the fact that it will hold it's
strength longer, and will benefit the
following crops. In fact, it is two
or three years before much of it's
phosphorus is regarded as avail
able for use by plants, but this de-
ponds on the soil. When much hu-
mus or decaying vegetable matter
is present, acids are formed which
act on the rock phosphate and set
the phosphorus free for the use of
the plant. This is the reason for
the application of barnyard manure
mixed with the raw rock phosphate
at the rate of $50 to 200 pounds of
phosphate per load of manure.
This mixture should be applied at
the rate of about 1000 pounds of
phosphate per acre.
Lack of phosphorus in the soil is
often shown by poorly filled heads
of grain, but this may result from
other causes. Phosphorus aids in
the development of the seed, and
where it is deficient grain yields are
likely to be light, even Though tho
straw appears heavy enough for
large yields. ..s Continuous grain
growing has undoubtedly decreased
the available phos phorus in many
of our soils, especially when no
barnyard manure or crop residue
is returned. Another reason for
blowing under barnyard manure or
green crops with rock phosphate
arises from the increased bacterial
: action which tends to break up the
phosphorus compounds and make
them available for the growing
crops. - w. H. Frazier, Assistant
Soils Chemist, University Farm, st

Silaqe for Beef Cattle.

With the rapid increase in the
Red River Valley corn crop comes
the question of the conversion Of
that crop into the most money for
the farmer and the silo is the ans
wer to that important question. A
special monograph by the officials
of the North Dakota Corn and Clo-
yer association at Grand Forks is of
the utmost interest in this connec-
ton. Among other things this piece
of agricultural literature states
that an adequate supply of beef for
the United States can be secured
only by the stockmen throughout
the country adopting silage as the
basis of their feed rations both
while growing cattle and while fat
tening them. The cost of making
beef with grain and dry forage is
greater than the majority of the
consumers can pay for it and far
mers find it more profitable to sell
grain than feed it. A careful feed
ing test showed that taking a steer
from birth to three years of age
when he was fat, it required SO
pounds of feed for each pound of
gain. An average of a large num-
Der of feeding tests in many states
showed that with dry feeds ten
pounds of grain and five pounds of
hay were required for each pound
of gain made while fattening beef
animals. Grain is worth at least
one cent a pound and hay is worth
half cent. Figure for yourself
the cost of making beef with dry
feeds.
Siiage saves large proportion OF
grain needed in fattening animals
It saves the need for any grain
while cattle are growing. Silage
fed cattle gain faster than those or
dry feed. They finish quicker anC
the meat is better marbled. Cattle
fed 3silage while fattening require
80 per cent less grain to make each
b 90. ponnlis 5off nerease in eigh1
than do cattle fed under the be-
methods of dry feeding. Silagt
