BY organizing rock crushing clubs
farmers living in Grant county have
solved the problem of getting, at low
cost, pulverized limestone with which
to correct the acidity of their soils
Finding that some Of their fields on
which alfalfa has failed would yield
as much as four tons to the acre
when lined, a group of farmers living
near Fennimore have comparatively
purchased a portable rock pulverize1
and are now producing their OWE
land lime" The crusher can be run
by any farm engine that will operate
sllage cutter and will crush two
tons of limestone per hour.
Operating this machine only at odd
times all the limestone necessary to
correct acidity on half dozen farms
this method that already several
groups of farmers have organized for
the same purpose. The farmers are
planning to cooperate in groups of
five or six and to exchange help.
When one has pulverized a quantity
of rock sufficient for his immediate
needs the machine, which is mounted
on a steel truck, is easily transported
to another farm.
w w. Weir of the College of Agri-
culture of the University OF WisCon-
sin has assisted in perfecting these
organizations and in designing a
crusher which would be suitable to
the needs CT a community OF farmers.
The same plan, according to Mr..
Weir if consistently followed, in other
parts of the state would double the
alfalfa production of Wisconsin farms
and eliminate more than One-half of
the failures. This plan of securing
pulvertzed limestone would prove sue
cessful in any part of the state where
there are sufficient out-crops of lime

When butchering on the farm it is
sometimes difficult to save the small
pieces of meat left in trimming, and
the large bony pieces especially of
beef which dry or lose flavor before
they can be used The exchange OF
fresh meat among neighboring fam
lilies not only does away with much
OF this waste but also promotes neigh
borliness. Then, too, it has been
found that meat and soup stock can
be canned If the proper precautions
are taken almost as readily and safely
as vegetables.
There is no reason why this method
could not be followed in the farm
home where. throughout the greater
part of the year, the meat supply too
often appears in regular succession
of feasts and famines. Imagine the
satisfaction Of adding to your stock
of canned fruits and vegetables, Jars
of bouillon, vegetable soup. and Irish
stews, all ready when unexpected
company arrives and you realize with
a sudden pang that there is possibly
nothing in the house for dinner.
By the time it is cold enough for
the first butchering some Of the
canned fruit put up earlier in the year
will have been used and the Jars can
be made 10 do double duty, instead OF
standing idle.
AS carelessness might result seri-
ously it is absolutely necessary that
every precaution be taken IN the can
ming OF such meat stock. II lie highly
important that the meat be fresh, that
it be thoroughly cooked, though not
necessarily at high temperature; that
lars be used that can be reheated
upon different days without opening
