ALL FARMS SHOULD

thousands OF good-sized farms that
have never yet introduced this use
full little machi says the Farmers
Digest.
In Englano per cent. OF all the
farmers use Gu: feed. only ten per
cent. being adverse to the use of the
cutter.
The feed cutter is particularly bene-
ficial in chopping hay and fodder be-
cause the quantity may be more cas-
lily measured, and then chopped and
mixed with a small amount OF water,
all dust being prevented.
When hay is scarce, clean straw,
chopped with hay and mixed with
bran or meal, and slightly moistened.
aids mastication and digestion.
Chopped feed is particularly good
for work horses when they have but
comparatively short time in which
to feed. A horse is unable to mast
cate sufficient amount OF roughage
within a few minutes. and where the
feeding time is shortened by stress Of
work, the feed should always be
chopped
These machines can be run by
power or hand. and are 30 inexpen-

every farmer should no. avail him

GETTING MOST OUT
OF FARM MANURE
Fertilizer Should Be Applied Even.
ly and Worked Down Well
With Harrow.

To spread manure out on the sur
face is to apply liquid manure. for the
first rain will wash out the substance
and drench the land. Then you have
the coat for protection. This Is a
guard against the sun or the severity
of frost on grass lands.
In the soil manure will only fertil-
ize what it comes in contact with, and
that is a small part of the LAID, as 1t
cannot be as equally distributed as
the liquid manure for the juice OF the
surface covering does it.
Then the soil is soaked as far as the
liquid extends. every particle OF 1t.
So II a piece Of grass land has manure
spread on it in the fall and is plowed
in the spring there is always an In
creased growth on 1t. showing a very
convincing result in favor of this
method of manuring the soil.
But II the land is plowed before the
manure is put on. and then cultivated
in the spring the results will be still
more convincing that surface manur-
ing is the best.
The manure should be applied even
ly and worked down with fine tooth
harrow. so as to bring it in close con-
tact with the ground. Then the soil
will hold the strength-the gases as
they are made-and the manure ap-
piled will be part Of the soil. never
lost unless on land that is subject to
washing.
1t is the best way to apply manure
whether long or short-the short. or
rotten. is the best, but the longest
straw manure will do, and it will pro
tect the surface both winter and sum-
mer. Even straw alone has an effect
on land that is surprising to those who
have never tried 1t and In some places
1t is always applied to wheat fields In
the fall.
Let US save all the manure manu-.
factured on the farms and apply 1t as
soon as possible: the sooner 1t gets on
the soil the better, as its strength and
protection will at once benefit the land
instead OF the strength going OF as II
does in the barn and In the manure

i farms.
1t Is an excellent plan to cart It on
the meadows and fields as soon as the

ADMIRAL WATTS VIEW OF NAVY

Ships We are going to build in the
future will have even deeper drafts
than thirty feet, and the depth OF
prominent harbors in the United
States should be at least thirty-five
feet" said Rear Admiral Watt chief
OF the naval bureau OF construction
and repair. in statement to the
house naval affairs committee.
Admiral Watt was advocating a
provision in the naval appropriation
bill. which the committee soon will
report to the house. to authorize a
contract for use by the navy OF private
dry docks at Hunters point. San Fran
cisco.
Admiral Watt urged that this action
was imperative. with the opening
OF the Panama canal" he explained.

FARMERS WANT FUNDS
ATTORNEY GENERAL BRINGS
SUIT AGAINST TREASURER.
Register Of Land Board Seeks to Get
100000 Available for AericuI-
tural Needs.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Denver.-Attorney General Farrar
has filed application in the District
Court for an alternative writ OF man.
damus to compel State Treasurer M.
A. Leddy to explain why more than
100000 in public schools funds is al
lowed 10 remain in banks in lieu of
being apportioned in loans to farmers.
Leddy is at present in New Orleans,
where he went for his health, and it
is probable he will be called back be.
fore his leave OF absence has expired.
The suit was brought at the request
Of Folney Hoggatt, register of the
State Land Board, who charges that
Leddy is wilfully violating statutes
providing that state school funds
shall be loaned farmers and settlers
in order to build up large private
patronage for himself with Denver
banks.
On Feb. 10 the funds OF the state
from sale of public lands aggregated
$6Sl.332'S. This amount, Hoggatt
maintains, should be placed at the dis
posal of farmers and offered in loans
to settlers who would build up the
states agricultural resources, as pro
vided for In the statutes. The failure
OF previous land boards to insist that
the loan features of the statutes be
observed, charges Hoggatt, is respon-
sible for stifled development of pub
lands lands in Colorado.
He charges the former with cow
ardiee and lack of patriotism in per-
mtting bankers to argue them out OF
proposed loans from the funds.
THE state says Hoggatt, lis get.
ting four per cent on these deposits,
while the banks who get the 'wad
turn around and lend the money to the
very farmers who should get 1t direct
from the state at 10 and IL per cent
interest.
THE only reason why the law isn't
obeyed is that efforts are made by
state treasurers to build up their
standing with bankers"
Hoggatt's application for mandam-
us seeks TO force Leddy to make loans
from the fund or show why. The suit
probably will be heard within the next
two weeks.
Leddy, who has been Ill, left for
New Orleans recently, where he expect
ed to remain for several months. He
probably will return to resist action
by the court.

WHEN MANURE IS
MOST VALUABLE
Fertilizer Should Be Hauled to
Fields Soon as Weather Con-
ditions Permit.

Manure is most valuable when 1t is
fresh. For that reason then 1t should
be hauled to the field as soon az
weather and soil conditions permit
By all means. though, never drive
orto the field when there is danger OF
tEjuring the physical condition Of the
soil: neither Is it best to spread ma,
nure on deep snow or on layer OF
Ice. The soluble plant food will be
leached out In the field. Just the same
as in the yard.
Unloading manure In piles on the
field is bad practice. 1t means extra
work. II the pile is allowed to remain
the first heavy rain is going to leach
the greater part Of the soluble plant
food into the soil directly beneath.
This makes spots in the field. The
enriched spot grows crops that ma.

For hauling manure properly. the
manure spreader Is invaluable. II not
only does better work. but It is q
