The depth at which land should be
plowed depends much upon the sea-
son of the year, the kind of soil and
the physical condition of the subsoil
Fall blowing, except for fall-grown
grain, should invariably be deeper
than spring blowing, as there is more
time for it to become sufficiently set.
tied and compacted. Whenever land
is plowed quite deeply, and the eli
matte conditions do not thoroughly
settle the burrows, it should be thor
oughly worked before it is planted.
Heavy soils need to be plowed
deeper than the lighter types of soils.
Such soils usually have quite COM
pact subsoils, and they are benefited
by being brought to the surface. 1t
is also benefit to heavy soils to bury
the vegetable matter at good depth,
as this will assist in keeping the sub
soil from becoming too compact.
Lighter soils are very much the
opposite. Their subsoils are usually
not too compact, and it is better to
have the vegetable matter mixed with
the surface SOIL Deep blowing OF
such soils has a tendency to make
them too loose, and care should be
taken to thoroughly compact them be
fore they are planted to crops.
Flowing land continuously at the
same depth every time has tendency

NOT AT WAR WITH TURKEY
Italy VIII Not Take Part In Attack on
the DardaneIes.

Rome, June est is reported here
that Naby Bey. the Turkish ambassa
dor to Italy, called at the foreign of.
fee and requested his passports. AL.
though Italy is at war with Austria.
Hungary, with whom Turkey, as well
as Germany. is now allied, neither OF
these two nations has declared war
against Italy. The report that Italy
would take part in the attack on the
Dardanelles was officially denied here.
Since the termination of the Italo-
Turkish war, however, many ques-
tions disposed of by the treaty Of
peace remain unsettled, and in conse-
quence of this Italy has retained sew
eral of the Aegean islands. 1t is be-
lieved that the kaiser is insisting that
Turkey utilize this circumstance to
declare war on Italy, which might
force a division of the Italian land
and sea forces and give relief to Aus
Hungary against the present inva
sion of her territory.

DIXIE HIGHWAY ROUTES.
Chicago and Miami Settled as Ter
ninals of Road.

Chicago and Miami Settled as Ter
minals of Road.
ChattanOoga.-The Dixie highway,
from the great lakes to the gulf Of
Mexico, was given definite form when
the commissioners from seven states
adopted its route. Chicago was select
ed as the northern terminus and Miami
as the southern.
The commission designated a west
and an east route between Indianapo-
lis and Miami, but a plan was adopted
to connect the north portion of the two
lines with a road along the eastern and
western shores of Lake Michigan and
connecting the southern portion with a
road from Miami along the west coast
of Florida, thus making continuing
loop of the highway.
The commission voted to invite Mich
igan into the association to provide the
lake loop and pledged itself to extend
the east route from Dayton, o., north
through Toledo to Detroit.
Among the principal cities on the
route between Chicago and Chattanoo-
ga are Danville, ILL.,, Indianapolis, Lou
isville and Nashville, while south from
indianapolis on the west route are
Cincinnati, Lexington, KY, and Knox
Vile.

Vest FARM BUILDINGS
Too Little Thought and Study
Given to Details.
Not Generally Understood That cIrcu.
lar Structure Is Much Stronger
Than Rectangular Form Cost
of Material Is Less.
(By W. ]. FRAZER.)

The planning, construction, and ar
rangement of farm buildings do not
usually receive the thought and study
these subjects warrant How many
dairymen have compared a circular,
40-cow barn with the common rec
angular building containing the same
NSa? How many understand that
the circular structure is much the
stronger; that the rectangular form
requires 22 per cent more wall and
foundation to enclose the same space;
and that the cost of material is from
"a to So per cent more for the rec
tangular building?
In community in which everyone
is engaged in the same occupation,
one person is likely to copy from his
neighbor without apparently giving "a
thought as to whether or not there is
a better way.
In comparing a 60-foot round barn
with a rectangular barn of the same
area, the two barns should afford the
cows the same amount of space on
the platform. Allowing each COW in
the 60-foot round barn three feet six
inches in width at the rear of the plat
form, it will accommodate 40 cows and
leave space for two passageways. But
in a rectangular barn, only three feet
four inches of platform space need be
allowed for each cow, and the 7Sh.

Won Tirptz Is Said to Be Ready to
Sink Some Of the Ammunition Boats
Now Plying Between American Ports
and British lsIes-Talk Of Secret
Base on Coast.
A German submarine is expected to
appear off New York harbor any day.
The British admiralty in anticipation
of such warfare has made extensive
preparations to counteract it, but keeps
secretly guarded the steps taken.
All along the Canadian Atlantic coast,
from New Brunswick to Labrador, pub
lie warning has been given to mer-
chant ships and fishermen to be on the
lookout for signs of German attack.
As result the British naval author
tiles in Halifax and in the United
States are receiving daily reports of
suspicious craft along the northeastern
coast, which indicate the alertness OF
fishermen. None of these reports has
proved well grounded.
New U Boats Can Cross Atlantic.
There have been reports for six
months that the Germans would at
tempt to establish secret supply base
for their submarines on some almost
deserted island off Newfoundland or
Nova Scotia. The new U boats can
cross the Atlantic and would need
only oil fuel and provisions to enable
them to raid southwark along the
coast, destroying British ships from
New York or out of the st. Lawrence.
The British naval authorities assert
there is no possibility of any supply
station being established. The whole
northern coast is on guard. Every
island is being searched.
The real German plan. so the naval
sharps predict. is for one or more OF
the submarines to steam northward
along the coast of Norway to meet
with a supply ship and then proceed
across the Atlantic, north of the regu-
lar track of ships, and when near the
coast of America turn southwark.
Then the mother ship will load the
submarines to capacity with fuel and
provisions and cast them off to do as
much damage as possible off the Amer
lean coast to British ships.
1t is said they will approach New
York and try to catch some of the
guarding British warships and the big
merchant craft steaming with food
stuffs and munitions of war for Eng
land.
When out of fuel the submarines will
run into some United States port and
there intern, the report says.

Buddha.

The origin of buddhism, which ranks
in numbers among the great religions
of the world, Is wrapped In much I'M
certainty, and the personality of its
founder is more or less obscure. 1t Is
generally believed that Buddha was a
prince of a petty Indian nation and
that he was born about the beginning
Of the fifth century before Christ. He
was named Siddhartha and was also
known as Sakya. his family name.
The title of Buddha. which was given
him, means "the enlightened" He
spent many years In study and soil
tary meditation and finally evolved the
philosophy which he preached for over
forty years In northern India. He was
about eighty when he died.-Youth's

A corn crop of 2,Sl4,000O00 bushels,

to form a hard, compact layer In the
subsoil at that depth. This is an I'M
desirable condition, and can usually
be avoided by varying the depth
slightly from year to year. New land,
when first brought under the pillow,
should not be plowed too deeply.
While 1t may be desirable to ultimate
ly have a furrow six or seven inches
in depth, it should be brought about
gradually, by blowing a half-inch or
SO deeper every year.
A method of draining fields which
has proved satisfactory and inexpen-
sive, is ridging the land while plow-
ing.
The pillow is started in the middle
where two burrows are plowed against
each other. By turning the horses to
the right when making the turns at c
and d, the dead burrows will be To-
Gated at A and B and E and F. By
continuing this system a series of
years, the bitches are made deeper
year by year. No ridge is formed on
the sides of the ditch. BY commenc-
ing to pillow in this way, and by vary.
ing the back burrows one year little
to the right OF c and d, and another
year a little to the left, the dead fur
rows will be made broad rather than
deep, making the fields gently undu
late instead of being cut up by deep
| bitches and narrow high ridges.
