BARLEY GROWING CAN BE
MADE MORE PROFITABLE

While the acreage of barley in
Minnesota is fast approaching the
100000 mark and the average total
yield is usually close to 30,00O,O00
bushels or better Impressive figuresl J,
barley growing in the state is far
from being as profitable as it might
be. The total yield might we'll be
nearly 6O,O0O,OO0 on the same acres
age, and the guilty might be far SUI
perior if growers would give more
attention to the crop, particularly be7
tween the time of cutting and time
of marketing.
The foregoing are facts in bulle7
tin on "Barley Investigations" by
C. P. Bull, of the Division of Agro7
nomy and Farm Management, Minne-
sofa Experiment Station, just issued
and obtainable by adressing the Of
flee of Publications, University Farm,
St. Paul. The facts strike the av-
erage reader as altogether sufficient
ground for investigations which were
begun by the Experiment Station
years ago to find out just what are
the best commercial varieties of bar
ley for Minnesota conditions and how
varieties and strains might be i'm
proved or better adapted to Mime
sota's needs.
The bulletin gives figures to show
that there has been an. actual : de-
crease in the average yield per acre
in recent years, and that, the records
of the state grain inspection depart
ment show (for 1912, for .example)
7S.1 per cent graded as ''feed." The
way to remedy these conditions is in
dicated.

ported yields varying from 4S5 to As

Fighting tho Billboard Nuisance.

Fighting the Billboard Nuisance.
In a decision delivered not long ago
the supreme court OF Illinois upholds
the principle underlying Chicag0's pres
ent billboard ordinance: Not only is
the measure declared valid, but the
reasoning of the court indicates that
even a stronger ordinance dealing with
the billboard would be sustained

ed States, where the frontage consent

be the special object Of attack, oppo-
nents of billboards are seeking to i'm
prove the measure Instead Of provid-
ing, as does the ordinance as it stands,
that billboards may be permitted in
certain conditions only with the ap-

Kansas City Stock Yards, March
9, 1915 The fat cattle market at
tanned a fairly reliable stride last
week, prices finishing . TO 40 cents
higher the first of the week. This
week opened with strong market
yesterday, but late reports from Chi
cago stated that Kosher trade had
fiattened out there, and big steers
we're sharply lower The weakness
penetrated TO the whole market, and
sales here today are steady to 10
lower, and the market slow. as buyers
hesitated to accept the reversed con-
conditions Prime steers are quota
BILE at $3.50 to $3.50, including year
lings, some heavy steers today at
1886. and heifers are worth up to
IS. 40 Medium heifers at 1925 this
morning were quoted 10 TO Is lower,
while cows at Sc were called steady
Features today are string of Louisi-
ana steers at s6,05, Sl3 pounds aver
age, train of North Texas meal fed
steers, ITO lbs. average at S7.20 and
S1.05, and train of Panhandle beef
steers put away to be sold tomorrow
This Panhandle train is the forerun-
ner of large number of winter fed
cattle in that new feeding region that
will come to market between now
and the first of May. Stockers and
feeders are firm, stock steers up to
IS, and good feeders at $40 to ST. rs,
including some Iowa steers feeders at
$3.50.

mate advance in prices is about due,

and the market will probably suffer
reyerses when marketing becomes
normal.

The Culture of Sweet Potatoes in
Western Kansas

A great many people think that it
is necessary to have sandy soil and
wet seasons in order to raise sweet
potatoes
But right here is where they are
mistaken. Sweet potatoes will grow
with less moisture than any other
the rich black loan soil that we have
here in Western Kansas, even on the
high divides All that is necessary
to grow them successfully is first to
thoroughly prepare the SOIL This L
usually do in the following manner,
and | grew very good crop in 1913
with only one rain after / set my
plants: First / pillow my ground very
early in the spring, March is the best
time. 1 usually pillow my sweet pota-
to ground alongside of my Irish po-
tato plot for convenience in working.
Plow as deep as possible, then as soon
as the ground will do to work After
every rain harrow the ground. keep
this up till you are ready to set your
plants, which can be set after the
10th of May or as soon as danger of
frost is past a,s
A few days before setting / take a
lister and ridge my ground running
the lister as deep as l can, then take
garden rake and rake the top of the
ridge level letting the small clods
roll down in between the ridges, not
raking the sides of the ridges at all.
Then when you are ready to set
plants, take a stick, a broom. stick
is good, and make your holes Is to Is
inches apart on top of these ridges
then put a pint of water or fill the
| hole full. Follow up with your plants,
| placing them in the hole and press
the dirt around the roots covering all
wet dirt on top to prevent from
baking. If good thrifty home
| grown plants are used, you should
not loose over per cent. 1t is not
necessary to wait for rain as great
many do to set plants but any time
will do. Evening is preferable. Then
all the cultivation that is necessary
is to keep the weeds down and the
ground loosened up little around
the plant, usually two to three hoe
ings during the season will do-as the
narrowing earlier in the spring has
destroyed most of the weeds, and
the vines soon cover the ground, ano
that is sufficient protection to the
potatoes.
If the above is followed you are
reasonably sure of a good crop O
sweet potatoes as the bugs and grass
hoppers do not bother them afte
they begin to vine. / think that thu
yellow and red Jerseys are the mos
profitable varieties to USE
