Should Start Early.

Washington, D, G. Many
garden lovers who are envious of
their neighbors' earlier blooms fail
TO realize that they can do many
things even in March to give some
Of their plants an early start.
Those who own hotbeds or cold
frames, the specialists Of the
q. S. department Of agriculture
say. should see to it that their
annual Towering plants are started
ct once. This advice applies TO
those flowers 70 be used later IN
beds and to those grown for cut

PuREBRED STOCK IN DEMAND
When Pork Market Is Low 10 Best
Time for Buying Breeding Stock
Hogs Are Cheap Now.

When hogs-are high there is big
demand for purebred stock. Breeders
get more money because the pork
value of their hogs makes them indie.
pendent of the cheap buyer and be.
cause the demand is sufficient to take
all their stock at good figures.
When hogs are low the demand for
purebred stock falls OF, and breeders
are compelled to sell 1t for less than
when market hogs are commanding
good prices.
So when the pork market is low,
when the demand is least for breeding
stock. is the best time to invest in
purebred hogs. Just now hogs are
cheap and breeders have surplus for
sale at reasonable prices. And now is
the time to "go to it" and stock up
with purebred hogs
Don't wait till everybody wants
them. Get them now and be ready
with a surplus of your own for the
time when everybody wants them.
That time will come as surely as
night follows day.

worth developing that we give full de-
tails. We found a 3k-inch clear space
between teeth was too wide, and haly-
ing it by inserting more teeth made
the teeth too close. A clear space OF
az inches would be about right. The
teeth should be heavy enough to be
rigid. We used half-inch steel rods
and had so much trouble with the
teeth bending that we finally aban-
doned the use of the tool. The teeth
should have length of eight inches
in the clear. We found trouble in ad
justing the hitching to conform to
varying conditions OF soil. the drag
fitting forward or backward too much.
We believe that drag made along the
lines indicated and provided with
wheels at the corners would be good
practical tool for clearing ground Of
small stones. provided the soil can be
first put in good condition. 1t would
be pretty expensive on lumpy ground.

INCREASE FARM CROPS
Interesting Experiments in Crop
Rotation in Wisconsin.
Plan Outlined to Determine Value Of
orainase-TiIed Land Can Be
Worked Much Earlier in Spring
Best for Truck Crops.

A series Of very interesting expert
ments in crop rotation were made sew
eral years ago in Wisconsin, to deter.
mine the value of drainage. The fol-
lowing plan was adopted:
In the fall of 1910 field contain
ing little less than six acres was
tiled. The land for the most part
was very wet and in the natural con-
dition timothy hay would not grow
on the greater part of it. Hedges grew
on at least half of the field. Another
field Of about the same area and pos
sessing about the same degree OF nat
ural drainage, was used as a check on
the tiled land. Exactly the same kind
Of crops were grown, and the same
treatment was given to the two fields
so far as possible. Surface drains
were provided In both cases. This
land, both tiled and untitled. had been
in meadow for ten or twelve years and
consequently was in poor state OF
fertility. This was especially true Of
The higher and better-drained parts.
The effect of draining was very
marked in 1911. due principally
to the fact that the tiled land could
be worked considerably earlier in the
spring The differences ranged from
Is to 100 per cent in favor of the tiled
land In 1912 the effect of tiling was
not quite so marked. as the dry wealth
er of that year permitted of better
drainage m the untiled land The lat
erals were placed about seventy feet
apart and were not laid in regular or
der, but more in the order of what is
sometimes called the natural" sys-
tenn of tiling. The depth varied from
1.S feet to 35 feet.
On this land four-year rotation
was established as follows: Clover.

The average value in increase for the

For raising truck crops on land

to tile. This will apply to such crops
as potatoes, sweet corn. cabbage. rut-
