Cooperate In the Ownership and Use of far.
 vestlng Machinery.

A well understood principle in the operation of machinery of any kind. or in working horses and mules, for that matter, is that max imum profits from the operation of any implement or machine only come when the implement or ma- chine in question is kept busy the maximum possible time. In other words, there are the fixed expenses that go on whether the machine is employed or not, and when it is unemployed these expenses may largely be reckoned as dead loss. Nowhere is this truth more appar- ent than in the use of grain bind CTS and threshers. which at best can only be employed during com paratively short periods. The av- craze binder costs probably around $125, and will handle from 60 to 100 acres of grain a season; a threshing outfit will cost from $4oO to $500 up. and the daily capacity range from 800 bushels up.
 It is safe to say that in the South

A Letter From the Editor.

On Board Canadian Pacific Train
 West of Winnipeg, Canada.
 July 9th.
 Dear Readers:
 The editor and wife are today viewing a phase of the great Eu- ropean war that shows the sad side of it. We arrived in Winnipeg, Canada, at 8 o'clock this morning from St. Paul and Minneapolis. Minn., where we spent six hours yesterday and were greeted on all sides by war activities. Canada expects to furnish at least 5OO,- GOO men for the front in Europe and has a number of training camps established where the recuits are drilled in military tactics. We just passed one these camps where 10000 men are being prepared and saw trains containing 25,OOO men who were enroute to Quebec to take the boats for England. We will pass another camp of 10000 sometime tomorrow about seven miles from Calgary.
 Winnipeg is beautiful city of 100000 population and from the French quarters alone over 1000 men have joined the French eolors and many more are enlisting daily. have talked with men in all walks of life here and have not met one yet who does not think the war will last for two or three years more.
 We have travelled 1875 miles frem Huttig to Winnipeg and it is 1867 miles from Winnipeg to Seattle, Wash.
 We of the United States who talk about our troubles with the war tax do not realize how lucky we are, as here war stamp must be used on everything. even an ex- tra cent on every letter and post card mailed.
 The Canadian country through which we have travelled so far is just one wheat field after another and one would think they raise enough wheat here alone to feed the world. There is no corn raised here and what we saw in Minniso- ta was just out of the ground.
 We have a continuous ride of twenty eight hours from Winnipeg to Calgary which is through wheat fields all the way and from there to Vancouver, B. C., is through the Canadian Rocky Mountains, with three stops at famous resorts.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only enc way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an innamed condi- ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta- chian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a ru.nbling sound or imperfect herring, and when 1t IS entirely closed, Deafness is the result. and unless the in- fammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh. which i5 nothing but an infiamed condi- ticn of the mucous surfaces.

HARVESTING THE ONION.

How shall I store my onions so that they will keep during the remain. der Of the summer and during win. ter?"
 The above question Is one that is frequently asked by the farmers of the state. The following suggestions. 1T carried out, will greatly help in solving the problem
 Do not allow the onions to remain in the ground after they are mature but dig them when from 80 to 90 per cent of the tops die and fall over Three or four rows may be piled to- gether in windrow as they are dug and allowed to remain in this way un- til the tops are dry, which will re- quire several days owing to tbe de. gree or sunshine It may be neces- sary to turn the onions over at inter vals of two days until they are thor oughly dry. Do not allow white onions to remain in the sun until they turn green.
 Place in Bags.
 AS soon as properly cured in the neid, place the onions In bags and car ry to the storage house. The stor. age house should be well ventilated especially until the bulbs are thor. oughly dry. If only few bushels are to be stored, It Is good idea in spread them out on the neor of building, piling them not more than six inches deep on the floor. When placed in this way there Is little dan. ger of the bulbs heating or sprouting from moisture Some of the regular onion storage houses have series of shelves, one above the other in which the bulbs are spread out to dry If you have 10 store them in bags leave plenty of air space between the diff ferent bags and be sure the bulbs ara all cured before placing them in the bags

In Growing Legumes It Is We'll to Know Whether Proper Bacteria Are Present in the Soil.

Investigate Bacteria.

In growing legumes it is always per tnent to know whether proper bac- teria are present in the soil so that the legume can take part of it's supply of nitrogen from the air and not entirely from the soil. No one can tell this until the legume is tried. By digging up the plant by the roots and washing the soil away with water the hooules, 1T present, can easily be found. If these are not present the iegume plant cannot take nitrogen from the air.

Methods of InocuIation.


 When growing a certain legume on soll and especially in community where it has never been grown there Is always chance that artificial in oculation may be necessary Two methods are commonly employed. One Is known as the soil transfer method Here soil at the rate of 200 to 500 pounds to the acre is taken from an old field where the legume has been growing, and the bacteria are known to be present, and scatter over the heid to be planted. With the other method pure cultures of the strain of bacteria suited to a certain legume are made. Such cultures are made by certain commercial concerns. or may be secured in limited quantities free or charge by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. c. Although soil in- oeulatien is likely to be the more cer. tain. the pure cultures can be used to good advantage where inoculated soil cannot be secured.

clearly that the services at the old

until January !. 1917, and probably an
other year thereafter, or until such
time as the church Is actually re-
moved. All services will then be trans
