LESS DANGER FROM DISEASE
Roads Tends to sweeten Ground and
Eliminate stapnant Pools.

A powerful argument in favor of
good roads Is the fact that they make
for the better health OF the community.
Weeds and trash have no place in the
good road scheme. and their removal
means a free airing and sweetening of
the ground where stagnant water may
have been In the habit Of standing.
and consequent elimination OF breed
ing places for flies and mosquitoes.
This means far less danger from con-
tagious diseases.
Then there is the question OF dust.
A well surfaced road gives q minimum
of dust to the air, and much danger
from infection Is thus saved. II the
surface Is oiled In the bargain. this
danger is almost entirely negligible.
Good roads mean dry feet and free
dom from the colds which are caused
by wet shoes. especially in the case OF
school children and others who are
compelled to pass on foot. And last.
but not least. the example Of clean.
wellkept roadside is an encourage
ment to the owners OF farms lying
along It to clean up things and take a
part in the general progress. Good
roads have a financial value hardly to
be measured, but their sanitary value
is as great. II not greater, all things
considered.

COULDN'T STAND FOR DEFEAT
According to London Newspaper, Col
ored Opponent Of irishnnan Had
Little Chance.

A brawny son of Erin was acting as
time keeper in rough-and-ready fight
between his mate and negro in South
America. In the course of the fight a
well-planted blow sent the Irishman
earthwards.
"One!" cried the time keeper, In a
tense voice, watch in hand.
"Two" he murmured hoarsely. pat,
ye fool, git up! There's only eight sec
onds left!"
The inert mass never moved.
"Three!" shouted the time keeper
desperately. Think of yer old mother,
Pat! What's 1t she'd be saying to ye,
Bate the nigger!'"
Slowly he called up to eight, buck
Ing up his mate with patriotic ejacula'
tions between each long second. When
eight had been called Pat slowly stag
gered to his feet, and by mighty
lunge succeeded In knocking down his
black opponent.
Desperately fearing lest he should
revive in time, the time keeper set of
at top speed:
"One, two, three. four, five, and
fives ten! Ye're out, ye black villain!

PREPARING FOR WHEAT
DiSkING SHOULD BE USED IN
CONNECTION WITH FLOWING.
Listing 10 Good Method Of Preparin!
Seed Bed, Providing Work 10 Well
Done-PIow Pulverizes and
Inverts the Soil.

Disking is a desirable method Of pre-
pairing the seed-bed when used in con-
nection with plowing. but 1t Is a poor
method when used alone. In trial
at the Kansas agricultural college a
plot that had not been plowed for
three years but where the seed-bed
had been prepared by disking Just be-
fore planting. produced only 9 1-3 bush
els of wheat. The average yield for
the last three years from seed-beds
similarly prepared has been only 6 2.3
bushels to the acre. This yield is not
sufficient to pay for the cost of pro-
duction. On lighter types of soil, in
the central and western parts Of the
state, this method has produced salts.
factory crops of wheat for a single
season. but when the method Is fol-
lowed year after year 1t cannot be ex.
pected to equal plowing or any other
good method OF preparation.
Two plots were double disked July
15. One of these was plowed Aug. Is
and the other Sept. is. The plot
plowed Aug. 15 produced 29A bushels
Of wheat an acre. The plot plowed
Sept 10 produced 27k bushels an
acre. This Is difference OF 2A bush.
els an acre in favor of the earlier date
of plowing. For the best results ground
that is double disked early in the sum
mer should be plowed within a month
after disking. II the plowing is post
poned later than this much of the
moisture saved by the early disking
will be lost by the rank growth OF
weeds and volunteer wheat that grow
all the more vigorously after the
ground has been disked. Also. II the
plowing is not done before the middle
of September there is not sufficient
time to prepare firm seed-bed for
time for planting. There is absolute.
ly no doubt Of the benefit resulting
from double disking ground early In
the season when 1t cannot be plowed
or listed. Double, disking early in
the summer not only insures an in.
ture in the ground 80 that the plowing
can be done later with greater ease
and at less expense.
Listing Is a good method Of prepar
ing a seed-bed for wheat, providing the
work is properly done. Ground can be
listed more rapidly than It can be
plowed. thus where large acreage OF
ground is to be prepared 1t can be
prepared earlier In the season by list
ing than by plowing. It is advisable
however. when listing is the general
practice followed. to plow the land oc
casionally. The plow pulverizes and
inverts the soil more thoroughly than
the lister, and thereby puts 1t into
better physical condition.
