Haarer's contract with the De-
structor company, to build an incin-

station In Fairview. There were six
other bidders. and some of them

the lowest bid had not been selected.

that all bids contemplating the erec-

site Of the Fairview pumping station
be rejected, as the residents and
factory owners in that district do
not want the plant located there. A
location has been suggested beyond

LEARN THINGS BY
FEW HARD KNOCKS
Better Crop One Gets for PloW-
ing Little Deeper Pays Well
for Crop of Wheat.
fRy l. NJ. RENNINeToNl

Some cows just about stop giving
milk at this season of the year. Those
are the cows you and do not want
Sell them off and get cows that will
hold out TO the end of the season.
Pillow a little deeper for wheat than
you did for corn. The earth may be
so that you will need a stronger team
on the beam, but the better crop you
get for blowing deep will well pay for
the extra labor.
1t is a mistake to put on fitting the
wheat ground till the last minute.
Have 1t all ready when the time comes
for seeding The sense of being hur-
ried and driven beyond ones strength
Ia what makes 1t hard to keep up with
farm work.
1t is a good plan to go through the
corn fields now and cut all stalks that
seem to be infected by smut Take
these stalks away and burn them.
Keep every burdock or yellow dock
plant from going to seed. Dig them
out early. BY cutting wild carrot
once or twice after haying one may
kill the weeds. Good job done. too
The time to begin feeding milch
COWS green fodder is before they drop
on In their yield. Afterward may be
too late. It is very hard work to get
a COW back when she has once begun
to shrink In her milk. Very seldom
that we can do it.
Give hogs and pigs some green pas
4ure during the summer. In this man
ner the corn fed them will go twice as
far, or It brings twice the same re-
turns. If there is no regular pasture
for them. fence in some odd corner
that cannot be used for cultivation.
The free, green range will keep them
healthy and growing.
Rape makes splendid hog pasture
and 1t may be sown at any time during
spring and hummer. 1t may be sown
with oats for pasture after oat har-
vest, or with corn at the last cultiva-
tion for fall pasture after the corn
