kINDEL SPEAKS
AT COMMERCIAL
CLUB MEETING

Congressman kindel came out
from Denver Monday and ad-
dressed the Commercial Club
and citizens of Arvada at Barth
hall. His talk was chiefly on
freight rates and parcel post and
he made many statements that
enlightened his audience on that
subject. He only touched on the
tive-cent fare and advised the
people of Arvada to fight and
keep on fighting if they ever ex-
pected to get that rate. While
many expected his talk to be
more on the cheaper fare to Den
YER than it was, his address was
appreciated by the large audi
cncc.

Cultivate Your Corn.

Cultivation of any crop Is for but
two purposes; to keep the weeds and
grass killed SO that they cannot use
to KEEP the surface of the soil stirred
to prevent the escape of moisture by
evaporation. Frequent shallow cult.
vation is the way to do both Of these
Use whatever cultivator you have, but
cultivate shallow and don't have any
laying-by time-keep on cultvating.
From the time that the corn Is plant
ed until II is ten or twelve inches
high, a section harrow can be used as
a cultivator. with excellent results.
Even IL the corn is apparently being
injured sclightly, II will afterwards
straighten up and the thorough stir
ring of the surface Of the soil will
more than overbalance any probable
injury. The custom Of cultivating
corn two or three times and then wait
ing to see what It will make, Is
reprehensible practice followed by
many farmers. Shallow. frequent cul.
tivation should be continued even II
the corn is too large to be cultivated
by the usual implements. When tho
corn gets large, find some way to use
one horse and cultivate between the,
rows; but keep on cultivating. 1t will
pay In either wet or dry years. but
especially in dry years. Try to main
tain q dust mulch over the entire
field. After rains the surface should
be pulverlzed az soon as the ground
is dry enough to work. A hard crust
should never be allowed to form be-
fore cultivation is attempted.
