well on soils lacking in humus or
otherwise badly run down makes it
especially adapted for this purpose.
Like alfalfa, cowpeas and other leg
umes, it has the ability to obtain
nitrogen from the air by means of the
nitrogen gathering bacteria which live
in tubercles on the roots in which it
grows. When plowed under for green
manure or allowed to remain on the
land this crop is very efficient
one in building up the humus con-
tent of the soil. The large roots,
which pentrate deeply. break up the
lower layers of the soil and add much
humus thereto when the decay. thus

KENTUCKY WIDOW
TO GET $26,53s

WASHINGTON May 15-Without
dissenting vote the House passed
the Cantrill bill, providing for the pay
ment of $26,53S to Mrs. l.. Helen
Dennis, or Gratz, Owen County, the
widow of James H. Dennis, in accord
ance with the findings of the Court of
Claims and numerous favorable re-
ports by the claim committee. The
claim, which is the largest single
claim that has passed the House dur
ing this Congress is the outgrowth of
certain contracts made by the Federal
Government with Mr. Dennis for the
improvement of the Tennessee river,
that were made between October,
1868, and April, 1872 Mr. Daniels ex-
pended large sum of money in car
rying out the contracts, and as re-
suit of not being paid by the Gov
eminent lost his entire fortune. The
bills to pay this long standing claim
have been favorably reported in the
Senate six times, have been favorably
reported in the House eight times and
passed the House twice. Representa-
tive Cantrill said he is confident
his bill will pass this Senate and the
President will sign it during this Con
gress. The House also passed bill
introduced by Mr.. Cantrill to pay $3.50
to James S. Clark, of Fayette county,
as reparation for damages done to his
farm while troops were encamped
there during the Spanish-American
war

SELL, KILL OR COMBINE THE
ROOSTER BEGINNING MAY %

Because rosters are allowed to run
with laying hens during the warm
weather SIS, 1000, 900 worth of eggs are
lost to the farmers throughout the
United States each year; and most of
this loss occurs during June, July and
August For this reason raisers of
poultry are asked to Kill or sell all
matured males or confine them in
pens away from the laying hens dur
ing the summer. Eggs that are laid
by hens not mated are sterile and in
fertile, and do not decay. The fer
tilted eggs spoil very quickly when
subjected to the influence of heat,
and if they are left too long in the
nests or under broody hens or are
left in very warm places the germ
cells begin to develop and the chicks
begin to grow. These growing cells
may die at any stage of development
due to unfavorable conditions.
Whether the embryo dies or not
the egg is useless as food is unfit for
market If the wives of the farmers
would once realize how much money
they practically lose by allowing the
roosters to run with the layers they
would Immediately stop the practice
Not one egg more is produced with a
male running with flock of hens
than without one, and unless the
roosters are valuable as breeders, it
is far better to dispose of them at the
end of the breeding season and re-
place them with the younger stock
the following spring. If We follow
this plan we can always have good,
strong, vigorous cockrels (young
roosters) for breeders, and at the
same time get rid of the care of the
nOn-producers. Let us at least make
the most of what we possess.
In order to have concerted action in
this matter the Poultry Department
of the United States Government has
designated the 23d day of May, to be
known among poultry raisers as
Rooster Day." Then sell, kill or
confine the rooster
The well-known poultry buyers who
are members of the Southern Poultry
and Egg Shippers Association have
agreed to pay higher price for the
roosters on that day.

SWEET CLOVER.

The Kansas Experiment Station in
a recent publication makes it plain
that sweet clover, hitherto neglect
ed plant, despised as perniciOus
weed, has very considerable agricul-
tural value. 1t is stated that ''as a
soil improver it is uneXcelled; for
pasturing purposes is has considera-
BILE value; and as a forage crop it can
be utilized to good advantage where
alfalfa or red clover can not be sue
cessfully grown"
Attention is called to the fact that
there are several varieties of the
sweet clover, of which the common
white sweet clover and the large bi-
ennial yellow sweet clover are the
most important. The white variety
is generally to be prefrred for farm
purposes, although the biennial yell
low is sometimes preferred where hay
production is desired" Sweet clover
is adapted to a wide range Of soil, and
while il does best on good soil, it will
make a satisfactory growth on very
poor soil.
Grown on good soil and properly
handled it makes a fair quality OF
hay which may in many cases be
substituted with advantage for the
more valuable alfalfa and clover
hays. In actual nutritive constitu
ents it is practically equal to these
II makes an excellent pasture for cat
tie, sheep, horses and hogs, and fol

on very poor and rough land.
For quick results in improving the
soil sweet clover is superior to- most
other crops. Its ability to thrive

the city of Louisa. The company fur

an ordinance prohibiting a gas COM

CROPS >oF STATE ARE IN Ex-
CELLENT SHAPE SAYS REPORT

After a drouth a good crop year
is an old saying that is believed by
most farmers. In truth there seems
to be come scientific basis for this
The first crop report for the year
1941 would indicate that this year
would be no exception to the rule.
Probably never in the history of the
State was there a more promising
outlook for good crop year than at
THE beginning of this season.
The wheat acreage of last fall is
given at 50, and practically none of
this was plowed up this spring.
Ninety-seven per cent. of the orig
inal sowing was left standing May /.
The condition of this large acreage
is SO. This would indicate an unusu-
ally large yield of wheat.
The original acreage of rye sown
last fall was 95.
The corn acreage planted is 81 per
cent, while 76 per cent of the plow-
ing intended for corn was done May l.
Planting is now in full swing, with
the coalition favorable. Deep blowing
has been practiced this year more
than ever before, and favorable
weather for the next few weeks will
insure large acreage of corn in a
first-class seed bed.
The oat acreage planned is given at
80, with 80 per cent. of it sown May 1
While the dark tobacco crop plant
ed is only given at 70, the condition
of plant beds is given at SO.
The average plant of hurley is given
at 81, with the condition of plant beds
| 81. There is some complaint of in
sects and cutworms injuring the to-
cbaco beds. The pastures are in un
usually good condition. The condi
ton of bluegrass is given at SO, with
every promise of a large crop of blue
grass seed.
Glover is given at IS, alfalfa at SO
and orchard grass at 92.
Fruits of all kinds have escaped
destruction by freezing, and the ap
pie, cherry and plum crops are unusu
ally promising.
Pears and peaches suffered some
from late frosts, especially in the cen
trail part of the State. However, we
will have more than three-fourths OF
pear and peach crop.
The strawberries are in good cOndi
ton with promise of bountiful yield
Ninety-five per cent. of potato crop
is planned.
Live stock of all kinds came
through the winter in good condition
1t is estimated that per cent. of the
horses died in the last twelve months
and 81 per cent. of the cattle.
The loss of sheep is estimated at
per cent, and lambs 10 per cent.
The greatest loss is from hog chOl
era, and it is estimated that 11.3 pei
cent. of the hogs of the State were
lost by this disease, some sections Of
the State being entirely free from the
disease, while the loss runs as high

The Day of Reckoning.


Now we seesfulfled the Scripture decla-
ration, He taketh the wise in their own
craftiness.'' Dob 5:13.) How SO, do you
ask? / reply that the great banks have
their vaults well filled with these bonds
and stocks on which they had hoped to
make large profits; but which, on the con-
trary, they are now unable to sell at any
price These stocks and bonas reckoned
in as part of the banks assets, show
them to be wealthy, with immense sur
pluses; but now the water" is to be
taken out of these stocks and bonds 1t
will show an immense sbrinkage in the re-
sources of these banks. They will become
suddenly poor without actually losing a
cent, by reason of the market value of
their securities falling.
This fact is realized by all banks. They
realize that if the Day of Reckoning has
come, and their holdings-their securities
are to be reckOned at their actual value,
it will mean that instead of large re-
sources and SURPRISES some of the rich
est banks will become insolvent and be
called upon by the government. either to
close their doors or to make good their
shortage. And right there will be their diff
ficulty; for the rich men of the world have
their capital invested similarly, and the
reaction will be bound to unfavorably at
