RESULTS FROM USE OF DRAG
Essential Little Point Overlooked by Large Number of Operators in
 Htching One Way.

One little point essential to the best results from the use of the King road drag is ignored by 8 large number of operators. Generally they hitch to the drag in one regular way. Having for some unknown reason prefer ence, they hitch so as to throw the dirt to the left, going round the sec tion of road from left to right, or vice versa, and duplicating the per formance each time the road is dragged.
 This results in the formation of shallow waves in the road surface, which do not contribute to easy rid ing, but decidedly do contribute to the formation of ruts, gutters and chuck holes.
 If the hitch is alternated, one time having the slant of the drag throw the dirt to the left, and the next time having it throw to the right, going. of course, in the opposite direction so as to throw the loose dirt always toward the center of the road, the improved results will be surprising Gentleman.

a system of farming which provides means for the collection of this valu- able and costly element from the air and a medium through which it can be stored up for the use of succeeding crops is of the highest importance and utility to farmers. Experiments con- ducted at the Alabama station shows that a crop of pea vines grown on an acre of sandy soil of moderate fertfi- ity contained 115 pounds of nitrogen; an acre of velvet beans, POI pounds; an acre of crimson clover, 143 pounds, and an acre of hairy vetch POP pounds. An experiment conducted at Louis jana station showed that crop Of pea nuts contained 192 pounds of nitrogen; an acre of velvet beans, 191 pounds, and an acre of cowpeas, 10S pounds. When calculated according to the scale of fertilizer valuation, the value of ni- trogen exceeded the cost of a ton Of ordinary complete fertilizer. The nj trogen was equivalent in amount to that contained ill from 1,750 pounds to more than one ton of cottonseed meal.
 The question is often asked if it is necessary to blow under the legu- minous crops in order to increase the nitrogen in the soil. Of course, the per cent of fertilizer value of the fallen leaves, stems and roots of the leguminous crops left in the field at harvesting time vary. However, the fallen leaves, stems and roots usually contain from one-fifth to one-third of the manurial value of the entire plants of the leguminous crops. This being true, we are in position to assert positively that the nitrogen in u soil will be increased by the growing of leguminous crops, even though the crop is grazed off or cut for hay.
Judsonia weekly advance., 1916-05-03

(By G. H ALFORD.)
 Leguminous crops have very lm- portant place in every safe and sane system of farming. These crops pos sess a characteristic which makes them of the highest value to farmers. This is the power to utilize the free nitrogen of the solid air When we ex- anime the roots of luXuriantly grow ing plants, we find numerous nodules or tubercles on them. These tuber- cles are caused by certain organisms or bacteria in the soil. It now seems that there is a special form of bac- teria for each legume grown, though some forms of bacteria in time learn to live on two or more legumes.
 It is a matter of great importance to furnish the soil lacking the neces- sary organisms with good supply of the right kind. There are several methods of putting the necessary bac- teria in the soil. A good way of in oculating the soil is to soak the seed at planting time in water in which the soil from a field where the legume has been successfully grown for a number of years has been stirred. An other excellent way of inoculating the soil is to drill in with the seed soil in which that particular legume has been grown for a number of years. Care should be taken to keep the soil out of the sunshine from the time it is taken from the field until it is worked into the soil of the next, as the rays of the sun kill the bacteria. It is best to get the soil and apply it on a cloudy day, or late in the afternoon.
 Nitrogen is the costliest element of plant food and is becoming scarcer and dearer so far as it's commercial forms are concerned. This being true

METHOD FOR TESTING SEEDS
Simple Plan Is to Use Two Inverted Plates, With Moistened BIotting
 Paper on Inside.

Two methods for testing the small seeds such as timothy, orchard grass, clover and the like vary only in the materials used to keep the moisture near the seeds. Sometimes plotting paper is used and at other times cloth. TWO plates are taken and a sheet of plotting paper put on each plate. The two papers are moistened quite a lit. tie, the counted seed placed upon one paper and the plate with the other paper inverted over the first plate. The plates tend to hold in the moisture. but they should be examined every day until the test is finished for fear the blotters get too dry.

CHEAP LANTERN NEVER PAYS
Keep Close Watch for Explosion or Serious Blaze and Consequent
 Loss of Property.

It never pays to use a cheap lantern During recent years the desire for un. dersell1ng has resulted in the sale of a lantern whose burner instead of be- ing securely screwed on the oil reser. voir, is merely slipped on.
 AS consequence, if the lantern is upset, tEe burner comes off and the oil is allowed to run out upon the lighted wick. The result is either an explosion or serious blaze, and un. less speedily checked, damage to life and property. One part of the farm equipment that ought always to be safe is the lantern

KEEP THE SEPARATOR LEVEL
Efficient Work Cannot Be Done Where There Is Vibration of Bowl-Cream
 Mixes With Skim Milk.

A separator that is not kept level cannot do efficient work, because of the vibration of the bowl. When milk is separated in balanced bowl, the milk is divided into three layers: cream, skim milk and separator slime. If the machine trembles, portion of the cream is mixed with the skim milk and the fat is lost. This loss may be as large as or per cent.
