PROPER METHOD OF
HARVESTING WHEAT

The following article on harvest
ing wheat Is sent out by the Exten'
sion Depa, tment of the U. OF A.
Agricultural College. In view OF
the fact that many farmers in this
vicinity will harvest their first
wheat crop this season, 1t will be
Of special interest and we gladly re-
produce It:
Wheat should be out when IN the
hard dough stage. II cut earlier
the kernel Is likely to be light and
shrlyeled. II wheat is allowed to
get entirely ripe much Of the grain
wall be sh .ttered out by the binder.
II the wheat is allowed to stand in
field long e than necessary it in
creases the danger of damage from
storms.
Twelve bundles make a good type
Of shock. To make this shock set
three pair Of bundles in row
against each other. Fill the spaces
on the side by putting two bundles
on each side. All bundles should
be set down solidly on the ground
with the heads firmly against the
head of the other bundles. Spread
out the heads aud butts Of two
bundles and put them on the shock
as cap. The heads should over
lap in the middle Of the shock, Do
not allow the butts TO project out
over the edge Of the shock or the
wind will blow them off. Gaping
the shocks will protect many of the
heads and make a much brighter
quality of wheat.
Wheat should be stacked as soon
as the bundles in the shock become
dry, usually about seven to ten days
after cutting. Stacks may either
be made round or rectangular.
Begin the stack by starting a round
shock and continue TO add bundles
until a bottom OF the desired size Is
secured. The stack Is then built
by beginning at the outside and put
ting on tiers like the shingles on a
house. Each tier or layer Of
bundles overlap the last one put on,
thus holding the stack together.
Often all but the two outside tiers
have the heads turned outward.
This causes the outside Of the stack
to settle the most so that the
bundles shed the water better.
After standing in the shock the
butts on one side Of the bundle be.
come longer than the other. Until
the stack is six or eight feet high
the long side of the bundles should
be~turned up on the outside course,
putting the short side of the upper
one even with the long side Of the
one below. This will cause 1t to
shed water much better than one
built straight up or slanted in from
the bottom. When ready to begin
to draw the stack in, turn the short
side of the bundles up on the out.
side tier, putting the long side of
the top bundle even with the short
side of the lower bundle.

For the first six or eight feet the
stack may be kept comparatively
level. Alter that the middle must
be kept tull and compact The
outside bundles must slope down
ward or the water will be run inside
OF the stack.
The top should not be too pointed
or It will blow of. When the
stack is finished run sharp stick
down through the top bundle into
the stack four or five feet THIS

"HOMlNG INSTINCT" IN BIRDS
Attachment to First Home Is Much
the Same as lie Evidenced
In Humanity.

The habit Of birds in migrating
South when winter comes IN Is in
huenced by the need Of finding a suf-
hcient supplX OF food. AS food grows
scarce when winter approaches In the
farthest northern places where birds
live they naturally turn to the South,
where, their instinct tells them, food
will be plentiful. The return Of the
birds In the spring TO theil accustomed
haunts ia the North is n Of the evil
dences Of their possession of an in
stinct which is also strong in nan
The environment in which a bird or
human being is brought up generally
becomes a permanent part Of its ma
ture. Ornithologists have not yet
made Il clear Just what enables the
bird to find its way back aud forth to
the same spot every year, and our
knowledge is confined to the fact Of
what the "homlng instinct" does.
After they mate and build their
first nest and bring up their first fam
lily, birds cherish a fondness for that
SPOT much the same as the attach
ment that man feels for his early
home. The spring migration of birds
Is their joyful return home after a
temporary s%oiourn abroad to secure
the meal Of livelihood.

EXPLAINING SONGS OF BIRDS
Beautiful Notes Of the Nightingale,
for Instance, Are Inspired by
patornal Love.

Il IS generally assumed that q bird
sinRs because he is happy, but sci
ence goes deeper for an explanation
Of the why and wherefore Of the
birds song. Natures optimistic Joy
In constructive progress Is expressed
IN the singing OF the male birds who
charm their mates TO further their
wooing. and continue after eggs are
laid to encourage the fulnllment Of
Matching.
The song stops when the little birds
come out Of the she'll. The nIghtin.
gale, for weeks during the period Of
nest. building and Matching, charms
his mate and human ears near him
with the beautiful music Of his love
song. But as soon as the little night
ingaies come from the eggs the song
changes to a sort OF cultural croaki
implying anxiety and sense OF respon'
sibility.
II the nest and contents we're de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume his beautiful song to inspire
his mate TO help him build another
nest and start all over again the Low.
