poNkEYs FOR CHILDREN.
They Cost Too Much to Be Common
In This Country.

The little donkey cart, as 1t trudled
along the white beach, attracted much

soils the ladies in white looked at the
small. gray donkey and smiled. The
gentlemen, raising their eyes from
their novels. patted the small and
dainty animal az it passed
THAT donkey cost a hundred" said
veterinary surgeon. 1T Is a very
fine specimen. What / want to know
Is, why are not cheap donkeys bred
here in America, the same as abroad
Then every child, at an expense of S.
or SO, might have donkey no big
ger than a Newfoundland dog to ride
and drive.
London is full OF donkeys. The
costers use them. Every tiny buck.
ster cart is drawn by tiny gray
donkey" The animals are bred in Ire
land and in Wales. and 1t Is possible
to buy little ones for 81. S. and 81.
and SO on up to 500 or more for the

1.-THE donkey Is docile. intelligent.
Industrious, moral He never runs
away. He never loses his temper. He
Ia an ideal pet for children. and, ii he
were bred here, he would be within

Think how nice it would be II you
could do here what you can do In

by Oscar Gunderson, County Representative
One block north of the school
house at Eagle River we have an
experimental plot of one acre,
one quarter of which is planted
to corn, potatoes, soy-beans and
alfalfa respectively. The corn is
No. Is Yellow Dent, an early
dent variety bred at Ashland and
believed to be three weeks earlier
than any dent corn know. We
have several 12 acre plots of this
scattered around the county.
Another year seed from this va
rie1y should be available to any
one who wishes to try it.
On the soy bean and alfalfa
plots lining and incubation is
tried out as follows: The west
half of each plot is lined with
Waukesha ground limestone at
the rate of four tons to the acre.
The north half of each is inocu-
lated with soil from a soy bean
and an alfalfa field respectively.
This makes the northwest quart
er of each plotvlimed and inocu-
lated, the southwest quarter
lined only, the northeast quart
er inoculated only and the south
east quarter untreated. This
should show whether the soil
here needs incubation or not.
The experience has been that al
falfa grows pretty well the first
year, but gets yellow and dies
out the second year. This is be-
cause the first year there is
enough nitrogen in the soil to
feed the plant which is heavy
nitrogen feeder. The second year
most of the available nitrogen is
used up and the plant suffers and
dies. If incubation is present
the bacteria enables the plant to
make it's own nitrate food out
the air, and instead of being a
soil killer the alfalfa then becomes
a soil improver. Thesame theory
applies to clover but the clover
bacteria are found nearly every
where while alfalfa bacteria are
scarce and in most places have to
be furnished by incubation. The
best way for the farmer to start
alfalfa is to get small bed of it
started, a square rod enough.
Lime, inoculate and sow this
carefully in soil free from weeds
and pick out the weeds the
first summer. From this bed
soil can be obtained for an acre
or two the second year. This
involves less expense and risk
than to start with ali acre or
more the first year. Alfalfa hay
is the richest roughage known.
Ton for ton it is equal to bran
for mich COWS. Besides improv-
ing the soil constantly by just
growing two and sometimes
three crops can be cut each year.
Oneida county can grow alfal-
ia successfully. Why not Villas
county.
