FARMS THAT FAIL. .
Tho Way Food Making Crops Rob the
Soil Of It's Fertility.

0Vu; - 80 S - s'ss/s
An acre OF wheat deprives the soil Of
forty-five pounds of nitrogen, twenty
three pounds of phosphorlc acid and
thirty pounds of potash. On the mar
ket nitrogen is worth II cents pound.
phosphoric acid Z cents and potash 4
cents. Therefore the actual money
value of the nitrogen reno we'd from the
soil by an acre Of wheat is $7.65: OF
phosphoric acid. $1G1. and Of potash
$1.2O. making a total loss Of $10.4G IN
acre a year. II the farmer raises TWEEN
ty acres Of wheat a year for twenty
i've years the loss will be $3.50.
Each acre Of oats consumes fifty
POUNDS Of nitrogen. twenty pounds OF
phosphoric acid and forty pounds OF
potash. In the same way an acre of
corn will. take from the soil $3.50
worth Of fertility. provided both the
grain and fodder are removed. II You
have fifty acres in corn 1925 worth Of
fertility is removed ench year. In TWEEN
" years you will have taken out $751;
zoo worth Of the elements necessary to
produce Il good crop.
Should you raise fifty acres Of wheat,
fifty acres of oats md fifty acres OF
corn for twenty years on your farm the
money value ofSthe elements removed
from the soil would be more than dO..

farms begin to wear out when you fail

RECORD LAND PRICE.

Sheldon, N. D., March 27.-Another
record price was paid for farm land
adjoining the village Of Sheldon when
Lloyd Jones bid s72.75 an acre for the
balance of the school land owned by
tn. village. Only two bids were sub
mitted. the other being VIM CuthilPs
at $780, an acre. -
The village still owns a ten acre
tract just east of the school ground
The object Of retaining this land is
that the school might need more
room, and then Sheldon has pretty
good chance of landing one of the
state agricultural schools in the no
distanct future. This ten acre tract
would then be needed for an expert
mental plot. #

Music.

Music is, a job lot Of vibrations fur
nished to hotels and restaurants for
the purpose Of adding to the discom-
fort of the guests. Music is also used
for other purposes. 1t comes in pianos,
harps and organs and sometimes.
though rarely. in human beings and
monographs. Babies often furnish mu-
sic when least expected and at hours
not always approved Of by respectable
people. ,Fa E.. H.
Music at one time was called heav-
emily maid. But she Is now mostly
clothed in ragtime and is known as
hossy. In short. music has run the
scale from classic to classy.
Like eggs and other historic back
numbers. music Is now kept 10 cold
storage and comes in reels and cans.
Handmade music il gradually being
superseded by the factory made article.
At one time music, singular az It
may seem. was used to make music.
Now It is used to make a noise.-Life.

Oceans are found IN various parts of
the world. where.they spend their time
IN tapping shores, infringing upon the
rights of continents and swallowing
up islands, ships and people.
Oceans are salty to the taste and
are used by yachtsmen to get away
from their wives. also to cover ups ca.
blel newspaper stories about kings
and queens and to float nayies and
other debts.
An ocean spends its time In having
storms and making surf. 1t delights In
making innocent people sick and ii
playing with children's legs. Without
oceans there would be no teamships
and gambling would decline.
Every ocean has Il set Of fish which
do not even pay ground rent. but spend
their time like people who live, on
land namely. In devouring each other.
Besides ordinary fish. oceans have
whales. Holsters and mermaids. The
mermaids live On rocks just as girls
on dry land do. The Holsters also live
khellfish lives in lobster palaces. The
whales lie around and wait for the
happy time when they can perform
useful work supplying bones for cor.

Some oceans employ professions

Oceans also have zones. seaweed and
