Iowa state bystander. [volume] (Des Moines, Iowa) 1894-1916, 1914-05-29

The campaign is near the close. Mr..
Dowell's friends have made a clean,
honest fight, and we firmly believe
their candidate will be nominated.
Mr.. Dowell has been an active figure
in county, city and state affairs for
a good many years, nine years in the
Iowa senate, eight of those years as
chairman of the judiciary committee,
the most important committee, in
many ways, in the senate. He so i'm
pressed legislation, was Loyalty in
strumental in formulating so much
constructive, progressive, needed leg
islation that he was recognized then
as one of the strongest men in the
state. He will go to congress so we'll
equipped as to take high rank at the
first.
Mr.. Dowell is broad minded, is
generous to fault, is a hard, per-
sistent worker. He is one who gets
results. He is broad enough that he
will give every county in the district
the same attention that he gives Polk
county. A friend in Warren county
who has known him from boyhood
days says: &C. C. Dowell will make
one of the best congressman this dis
trict ever sent to Washington. I
know he will. I know his ability, his
clean life, his singleness of purpose,
his ability to represent the district
faithfully. Mark what 1 tell you, he
is going to congress and he will be
one of the best men we have ever had
in that BODY
The man who said that is an active
republican, man Of large affairs
who has known C. C. Dowell all his
life. And he but repeats the senti-
ment of good majority of the re-
puh!;cans of that county.

GETTING MOST OUT

The manure should be applied even

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

Manure is most valuable when it is
fresh. For that reason then 1t should
be hauled to the field as soon as
weather and soil conditions permit.
BY all means. though. never drive
onto the field when there Is danger Of
injuring the physical condition of the
soil; neither is 1t best to spread ma
nure on deep snow or on layer OF
Ice. The soluble plant food viii be
leached out in the field. just the samo
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.
tnre later and one gets an uneven
crop. With the cereals. lodging often
results and much grain is lost
For hauling manure properly. the
manure spreader is invaluable It no.
only does better work. but II Is a
means of utilizing horse power in
place OF hand labor. In these days of
scarcity of help that point cannot be
overlooked Manure applied with a
spreader not only goes farther. but
because 1t is spread more evenly and
more finely divided it produces great.
