REDUCE ACREAGE OF COTTON
Not Practicable to Economically Main
tain Soil Fertility and Grow but
One Crop Year.

Our agricultural advisers as well
as our farmers seem to have com
pletely lost sight of the true reason
for diyersitication and live stock pre-
duction. To produce the food and feed
supplies of the farm is an economic
necessity which no one seems 10
doubt; but this is not enough TO build
I'D or maintain sound agricultural
system, because it Is not enough TO
build up and maintain soil fertility.
Until we begin teaching diversifi-
cation as Il necessity for economical
soil building we shall make little
progress toward a sound agriculture.
1t is not practicable to economically
maintain sell fertility and grow one
crop year on the land and make
the crops cotton and food and feed
crops like corn. oats, wheat potatoes
etc. We must reduce the cotton acre
age because of the necessity for
growing legume. soii-improving crops
and because more cotton can be pro-
dueed on less land when this is DONE

Sunshine. fresh air, warmth, and
comfort are the main essentials of Il
sanitary dairy barn, asserts j. b.
Fitch, associate professor of dairy
husbandfy in the Kansas State Agri-
cultural college.
MANY farmers have the idea that
expensive barns and equipment are
necessary for the production of clean
milk. This is not the case" says
Professor Fitch. There are many
cases where thousands of dollars are
invested for equipment and conditions
are ideal, but lack of proper methods
and of cleanliness results in low quail
ity milk.
Farmers can install some type of
swinging stanchions, cutters, and 81
ventflattng and lighting system at a
low cost. Almost any stable can be
remodeled into good milking barn.
In building Il dairy barn, one must
keep in mind the eheapness of con
struetion and the ease of keeping both
the barn and the cows clean.
Proper construction of stalls and
cutters assists materially in keeping
the COWS clean. The stalls should be
50 constructed that they can he regu-
lated to the size of the cows. This
can be accomplished b. building the

THE
HOLDUP
By HAROLD CARTER

Bhdd's Crossing was growing into
a stable place. The population had
increased twelve thousand, there was
an apartment house. and Miller's build
ings, containing the new telephone
central. with the Bank of North Kan
sas opposite, was the picture that
familiarized the outside world with
Budd's Crossing when seen on post
cards.
There was picture of Newton park,
with a couple seated upon a bench,

waist The young man was unmis-
takably Harry Fisher for the angle

pointed. aggressive chin distinctly The
girl, whose back alone was visible,
certainly looked like Meta Clare Of

which was snapped by f1ashlight,
caused a good deal of scandal: and
from the fact that the principal fig
ures In it both laughed it might have
been inferred that they were engaged
to be married.
They we're Harry was in the bank,
and he could look up and see Meta
opposite the switchboard across the
street. Meta never looked at him. how
ever being attentive to calls.
How the quarrel started nobody
knew But the first thing known was
that Meta and Harry were not on
speaking terms, and presently Harry
was running after half the girls in
town. and holding himself defiantly
toward the world except when he
sunk down side street to avoid meet
ing Meta.
Rudds Crossing is on the main rail
road line and lies five miles beneath
Lake Lomond, which irrigates the
thirsty section by means of a huge
dam back in the mountains. If ever
the dam burst engineers. and people

town in time.
Budd's Crossing was not worrying
about the concrete dam, guaranteed to
last three centuries. Ii was worrying
about the bank robberies in neighbor-
ing towns. The Cotton gang had held
up the banks of Newboro and Gasthaus
in broad daylight, taken out the con-
tents of the disrupted safes. and rid
den off unscathed Budd's Crossing
had prepared for them-at least, the
bank had-in the shape of two armed
guards who patroled the front of the
building and were prepared to shoot

TREATMENT FOR SCALY LEGS
Mites-Afficted Parts Will
Soon Heal Over.

Scaly leg i'll poultry is not serious
disease, although in some eases it
seems to reduce the vigor of the bird.
1t Injuries the appearance of flock
and is so easily cured that there is
little gained by allowing the disease
to exist in the flock II is caused by Il
mite which burrows under the scales,
and the irritation results in cells which
cause the crusty eXudations. These
cells force the scales away from the
leg and give the bird rough appear
anee.
Equal parts of kerosene oil and lard
rubbed on the legs will destroy the
mites and the afflicted parts will soon
be healed. Oil of caraway, one part
and vaseline, five parts, is recon-
mended for quick cure and is de-
sirable for use when birds that are to
be sold or exhibited show signs Of the
scales. 1t is then best to assist the
oil by scrubbing off the dirty scales
with a small stiff brush. An old tooth
brush is excellent for this use.

Why Salt Causes Thirst.

Salt has been described as natural
element of the blood in about the same
proportion as in the water of the
ocean. Under general conditions we
do not feel the existence of salt in our
bodies because its effect is counteract-
ed by due proportion of water.
When We eat an excessive amount
of salt thirst is created by the demand
of nature that we also take proper
tomato amount of water and dilute
the salt 10 its proper relative amount.
ANY food that tends to absorb the
moisture of the body will cause thirst
fol the same reason-that our physical
welfare requires Il balanced quantity
OF water

SAVE LABOR BY CULTIVATION
Cotton choppers" Should Not Be Re.
quired to Cut With Hoes Across
Wide Zone of Weeds.

The manner in which you cultivate
the young cotton plants will mean
much to the work of hoeing. Cotton

cut with hoes across d wide zone of
weeds, nor should they be required
to dig down" in drawing surplus dirt
from the row. Cultivate to save hoe
ing. Hoeing is expensive. Save labor
by cultivation.
