MANS SHORT TERM OF LIFE
He Does Not Nearly Live Out
His Allotted Time.

A rule which holds fairly true among
the higher animals is that an animal
lives five times as long as 1t requires
for his muscular system to reach its
full strength. The dog is fully devel-
oped at between two and three years
of age, and lives fifteen years; the
horse reaches his prime not later than
five, and If he escapes overwork and
ill usage, lives to be twenty-five and
even thirty. In fact, the rule seems to
be an understatement of animal ex-
pectation of life, rather than an over
statement.
The one conspicuous exception is
man, who seldom reaches his full mus
cular strength before he is twenty-five
and counts himself living on borrowed
time if he passes the age of seventy.
If man were as well circumstanced in
this matter as the horse, dog or cat,
his average term of life would vary
from one hundred and ten to one hun
dred and twenty-five years.

WOMAN'S FARM
COST TEN CENTS

a. It,l.L -
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, tie national farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, appears the
following interesting a":cunt of a
woman who has a farm that cost her
ten cents.
Miss Serena Helena Blue of Mime
sofa is the owner Of the smallest gov
eminent homestead. A few weeks
ago she went to the land Office at
Cass Lake, Minnesota, and in return
for ten cents received a deed to her
homestead, which is little less than a
tenth of an acre in size.
It is a triangular point of land jut-
ting into Turtle Lake, and measures
1879 feet long by 3S feet wide in its
widest part. To comply with the
Homestead Law she built a log house
and lived into it for seventeen months.
The law required her to cultivate at
least 218 square feet of the 3,484
square feet in her homestead, but in
stead she cultivated nearly half the
area and raised tomatoes, cabbage and
clover.
Miss Blue is twenty-seven years old,
and in a letter to Farm and Fireside
says: This fraction of Land joins our
farm here and, finding it was govern
ment land, I filed on it knowing that
such a beautiful spot would make an
Ideal summer resort, although a small
one. I feel sure that some day it will
be a valuable piece of land, and I can
realize as much from it by renting cot.

birch and pine. There r numerous

GOOD HOMES MAKES
GOOD W0RKMEN

In the July American Magazine, Ida
M. Tarbell, writing another article in
her business series entitled "The Gold
en- Rule in Business" shows how good
homes make good workmen. Follow
ing is an extract from her article:
There is a growing recognition in
the industrial world of the determin-
ing effect that the life outside of the
shop has on the life within. Many
men of intelligence and understanding
declare that our hopes of better indus
trial world cannot be realized if that
life outside is unhappy, hopeless and
meagre. One of our greatest safety
experts says that safety is impossible
if a man is poorly housed and fed. An
experimenting and successful manu-
facturer employing hundreds of girls
declare that unhappy homes make un-
stable payrolls. Another tells US that
without healthy amusement workers
can never be depended upon for eff
%ficiency. Competition itself is forcing
employers to consider the outside life
of their employees. The first and
most important thing they must con-
slider is the house the man lives in.
A good workman wants a home.
wants it more, on the whole, than any
other thing. He wants, if possible, to
own his home. Whenever you find
stableindustries in this country you
find the wage Garner buying a bit Of
land and building a house. 1t is he
who pushes the city out in the long
lines Of tiny cottages. 1t is he who
opens additions" and suburbs. It is
he who supports the extensions of car
lines, water, gas and electric mains.
Take the street car in various direc-
lions from a growing place like Kan
sas City and note the miles of gay
bungalows and trim houses. It is the
man on wages who made the building
of them necessary.

BOY
is PARDQNED

The State Board of Pardons has Ii
berated Issac McGinnis, a 17-year old
boy sent up from Cando nearly three
years ago on a charge of killing a
negro. The boy was.a transient en-
ployee on a farm. One rainy day he
and other farm hands engaged in a
poker game when a negro who had not
been playing, took the pot. When the
the negro was demonstrated with by
young McGinnis he threatened the
white boy. The latter drew a gun and
shot the negro fatally. Afterwards
he pleaded guilty and was sent to the
pe~nitentiary. Had he fought the
case he would have escaped conviction.
Each member of the jury signed the
petition for pardon.

GRASS CROPS
ANDDMO|STURE

Bromus, alfalfa and clover add hui
nus to the soil, but usually leave it
quite dry. These crops keep on grow
ing during the whole growing season.
The growth these crops make will be
largely in proportion to the moisture.
When the soil becomes too dry to
make growth, they stop growing till
the rains add enough moisture to
make growth possible. In this way
the moisture content in the feeding
depth of the soil is kept quite low by
these crops the whole growing season.
In Bulletin No. ITO North Dakota
Experiment station, the results are
given the trials made in comparing
the yields of oats on different kinds of
sod and on grain land. These trials
were made at Edgely, Dickinson and
Williston Sub-stations.At Edgely the
trials cover 8 years 1907 to 1914.
The oats after alfalfa averaged 22.7
bushels; after bromus, 30.7 bushels;
after clover, 31.4 bushels and after
small grain 1876 bushels. At Dickin-
son the trials were carried on from
1908 to 1914. The average yield of
oats for this period was 4O.6 bushels;
after alfalfa; 42.2 bushels after bronze
grass; 37.9 bushels after clover and
36.5 bushels after small grain. Here
the smallest yield was on small grain.
At the Williston Sub-station the trials
coved the years 1910 to 1914. The
oats after alfalfa yielded BIG bushels;
after bronze grass 1878 bushels; after
clover, 1868 busrels and after small
grain, 1856 bushels. The clover alfal-
ia and bromus improve the soil by ad.
ding humas, but due to the heavy
draft On the moisture, the first crop
following them cannot take advantage
of the humus added, due to the mois-
ture being low. The value of the or
ganic matter added by the grass and
legume crops cannot become available
before sufficient moisture has been
stored in the soil to change them to
humus.
