| NEVADA COUNTY FARM. . 5! ERS UNION COLUMN By J. M. Thomas .:..:..:..::..:..::.. lS THE FARM PAGE WORTH
 WHILE?

We have been wondering whe+ba,, any one was interested in the farm page. So few of our farmers contri- bute to its columns that we some tunes wonder if it is worth the effort Now and then We get splendid let ter however and that encourages ns Others tell us from time to time that they are reading the farm news and appreciate it. We have splendid letter this week from J. M. Livingston which we publish on this page. If every farmer would give his exper- fence as MT. Livingston has done the paper would be very interesting. So many say they can't write. Forget that you are writing and get inter ested in what you have to tell and come on with 1t and you will surely help some farmer.

A Matter of Life and Death

A minister who guarded his morn ing study hour very carefully told the new maid that in no circumstances were callers to be admitted-except, of course, he added, in case of life and death. Half an hour later the maid knocked at his door.
 "A gentleman to see you sir"
 "Why I thought I told you"
 "Yes, told him." she replied, but he says it's a question of life and death."
 So he went downstairs and found an insurance agent.

Dear Sir:

Dear Sir:
 l have been reading with interest. the Farmers Union page. in The Ne vada News, and am a strong believer Tn diversified farming. and am thor oughly convinced that nothing will raise the price of cotton more per manently than to raise our food sun plies at home. 1 also heartily agree with you in last issue that corn is an expensive food for stock when de- pended upon exclusively, and I want to say here, that I have learned by actual experience that we can keep our stock in good condition through the winter with very little corn. if We have plenty of good hay, and this can be raised very easily if we plan for it.
 Last spring l rented two acres of Alfalfa In it's second year, paying ten dollars per acre rent, which looked scary, but it proved the best invest ment, and the most paying crop raised during the year. I sold Four teen dollars worth of hay, and have kept four head of horses in good con dition on the remainder, with an aver age of about ten ears of corn per day to the horse. Although they have been at work regularly now for two weeks, they show no unusual signs of fatigue and do not seem to have lost any flesh. But as everyone does not have land that will produce Alfalfa, Japan clover is good substitute My experience with this forage plant is as follows:
 l had piece of hillside land that ow- ing to the tendency to wash when cul- tivated decided to SOW to oats followed this plan for several years, breaking it in the winter or very ear ly in spring, and by the third year it was thoroughly set with Japan clo- yer, and in August or September would cut enough hay to feed lavishly ten or twelve head of stock all win ter. But perhaps you do not want to wait SO long to get a set You can ob- tain the seed from most any reliable seed house at cost of about one dol lar per acre for the seed. and it can be sown on top of the crop in March, and get a crop the first year, and will reseed itself every year.
 Yours for better times,
 ]. M. Livingston.

ROTATION OF CROPS
By Jim Blair.


 potation means change in some reg
 ordor Rotation of crops is the ' a+ onposite of the growth of the ' on,o crop year after year on the same S' ,I If has been found that when lS ~a kind of plant is grown year after @ nor on the same land the yield is decreased.
 The advantages of crop rotation
 It helps to control weeds, in- ,octs and diseases of plants. Nearly every crop is accompanied by certain t;nds of weeds that cannot grow with another kind of crop. If small grain ;s grown continuously on the same land it is likely to become very weedy. These weeds are easily killed by cul- tivation. There are many diseases and insects that live on one crop but disappear if the same field is planted to another kind of crop.
 2-It provides for the humus sup plv of each field. If crops are not TO- tated those fields that are continuous v in titled crops will have their hu- mus supply exhausted.
 S.-It provides for the growth of grass and legumes on each field. Thus you have nitrogen gathering crops and grass on all fields often, and instead of exhausting the nitro gen supply you are constantly increas- ing it.
 At saves labor. Grasses are sown in small grain, and the land needs but one preparation for two crops.
 5.-It keeps the land occupied. Grass seeded in oats occupies the land after the oats are cut.
 6.-It allows the change of deep and shallow rooted crops. In this way the different layers of the soil can be used.
 Tt provides for a balanced re- mOval of plant food. When different crops and planted on the same land it will cause the removal of more of each kind of plant than will be taken from the field by the smaller yields that are secured if any one crop is grown constantly.
 S,-lt SyStematizeS farming. It does not make farming more complex or make more fields as some have supposed. To be sure. some thought IS required in getting the system es- abolished; the farm may need rear ranging, when the work is begun, but after a systematic rotation is estab shed, 1t simplifes farming.
 A good rotation for three fields and Tor a three year rotation is: Field number one; first year; corn with 'o"peas between the rows. In fall sow In oats. Second year; oats. Af- er cutting oats SOW COW peas for hay. lnrd year; cotton Field number TWO; First year, oats, aftercutting 'ats 50" eowpeas for hay. Second 'ear' cotton, Third year; corn with 1 oWpeas between rows. Field number nree' First year; cotton. Second ear; corn with cowpeas between l O"S tnlrd year; oats After cutting atS SOW cowpeas for hay.

The. best evidence of what the Resi- mol treatment will do for YOUR tor tured skin is what it has done for others. Here is a man whose WHOLE BODY was covered with tormenting eczema. When HE says that Resinol stops itching Immediately. he knows what he is talking about. Just read his simple, straightforward letter:
 My entire body, even my eyelids, was completely covered with blisters. The burning and itching were some thing terrible, and I COULD NOT SLEEP nor rest. I think I had one of the worst cases of eczema human being ever had.
 'T used eight different kinds of rem etiies without success. I then tried Res1nol Ointment and Resinol Soap and it stopped the itching IMNGE- D1ATELY. I gradually noticed a change for the better. Now am en- tirely cured"-(Signed) Edward F. Mccullough, 249 River St., Boston, Mass, Aug. il, 1914.
 Now ask yourself this question:: eff Resinol could heal THIS mans skin, will it not also heal mine?" You can get Resino1 Ointment and Resinol Soap at ANY drug store, or for free trial. write to Dept. 10-R, Resinol, Bal fimore, Md

When tine hearing was held in Hart ford last week before the legislative committee on humane institutions, re- garding the proposed removal of the Connecticut school for 1mbeciles, now located at Lakeville, the committee made the Norwich delegation a prom ise that it would appoint a time to visit the site at Yantic which the Norwich committee desires to bring to their attention as a most desirable To- cation for the school.
 The committee stated to the Norwich delegation that they were not commit ted to the site at Simsbury which has been proposed as the location to which to remove the school, and so they were disposed to give the Norwich site con- sideration.
 The Norwich delegation included Senator John H. Barnes, Representa- lives Joseph H. Henderson and A. J. Macpherson. First Selectman A. W. James L. Case and c. E. Chandler.
 It is believed that the Winslow T. Williams property at Yantic. upon which an option has been secured, will present such admirable features fitting it for the use of such a school that the committee on humane institutions can not fail to be impressed when they come to inspect it.
 Some of the features that the Nor wich Board of Trade committee will point out to them will be the fine mansion house, with eight or nine more

RECALLS PRISON RELEASE
 FIFTY YEARS AGO
Capt. "Eb" Woodward Was One to Come Out of Confederate Prison,

Fifty years ago Monday, March 1, 1885, 500 of the 1,SO0 Union officers who had been confined in the differ ent Confederate prisons, were sent through the lines at North East Bridge, N. C., six miles out from Will mington, N. C., for exchange.
 Among them were the officers of the Eighteenth Connecticut regiment, who had been captured at Winchester. Va, q months before. They had been in Libby, Danville, Mason and Columbia C., had for three months been under fire from Union batteries at Morris Island.
 Speaking of the transfer one of the prisoners, Capt. John E. Woodwa I'd, or ED Woodward, as he was known during the years he was purser on Norwich line steamers. showed a keen memory of the event. Captain Wood ward says:
 We were counted through the lines by the Union and Confederate com missions. There was guard of Con- federates on one side and the Seventh Connecticut regiment on the other stood at present arms. We passed into a piece of woods where we found 300 enlisted men from Salisbury, N. c. In the darkness of the woods we presented the appearance of an army of skeletons; we were so pale and so poorly clothed. Some of the men wore only, shirt and a pair of drawers; ; some only a blanket and drawers and hardly any of them had shoes to wear. Some of them had become demented from starvation and exposure They could not tell their names or the regi- ments they belonged to. God only knows how they lived through it.
 After all had gone through the lines Major Klein of the Seventh Con- necticut rode in and said: Now. boys, get rid of your cooking things and keep your blankets. You are now in Gods country. We are glad to see you and we are going to feed you
 "One mighty shout went up. The air was full of hats. blankets, tin pans and kettles. Men fell down and cried like babies and the general expression was Thank God we are free once moret'
 eve were then marched out to the pontoon bridge over the Cape Fear river, which was at the foot of a, hill. On the opposite side was a huge arch of greens and the word Welcome surmounted by Old Glory. At the sight of that flag the men went wild. They were simply crazy: lost all control shouted themselves breathless. Some fell panting to the ground, thankful to God for their release. ..-'
 Tt was a spectacle, the impressive ness of which 50 years cannot erase. We were marched up the hill between two lines Of guards-the Seventh Con- necticut on one side and the first col ored troops we had ever seen on the other side. They stood at present arms while the 300 men marched by. At the top of the hill we found a real ization of heaven-coffee, hard tack, bacon and beans-and the first good meal we had had in many months That night we slept in Wilmington and the next day we officers were sent to Annapolis on the steamer Euterpe, Captain Mallory of Mystic, Conn.,

PROMISE TO VISIT YANTIC SITE
Committee on Humane Institutions Coming Here to See Winslow T. Williams Property Norwich Citizens Working To Get This 400 Acre Plot With Buildings Taken Location Which to Move Lakeville School Its Many Advantages Will be Shown to Committee.

buildings, on this 400 acre tract of land that is the property which the state committee will be urged to decide upon
 as the location to which to remove the school now at Lakeville. Included among the buildings is a modern cat tie barn capable of accommodating 4O
 head of stock. On the property there is a water supply capable of develop ment to 20 million gallons. and ice supply and an icehouse.
 Of the 400 acres in the tract, 2o acres are tillable and with small expenditure in the future the tillable area could be increased by 100 acres. There is abundant wood on the land, both for fuel and for building. The location of the plot is another recommendation in it's favor. Through the Yantic river that flows along one side it is naturally set off as an iso- lated plot. yet it is accessible on all sides, and it has a railway line run ming through it from which a, spur track could be extended as required for freight facilities for the school, should it be located there.
 The city of Norwich and the village of Yantic are both close by and a trolley line from Norwich would make visitation an easy matter for those coming to see relatives or friends in the school.
 The buildings are within half mile of the city water main, so that it would be an easy matter to increase the water supply from there. Elec- tricity from the city lighting plant
 could also be secured.
