DRAINAGE ADDS TO PROFITS
BY Increased Yield and Decreased
Cost of Cultivation Value Of Land
Is Often Doubled.

Lands that are too wet, for the most
be drained. Even uplands may often
be drained with profit, especially hill
sides subject to erosion or inclined To
be .spouty." Indeed. drainage is
profitable wherever it is necessary to
the fullest use of the land.
1t Is not uncommon for lands too
wet for cultivation to produce, when
drained, 60 or 70 bushels of corn or
oats to the acre. On much of the
drained land the increase Of yield IS
from % to 100 per cent. and by the
Increased yield and the decreased cost
of cultivation the value of the land is
often doubled.

"Saved Daylioht" 40 Years.

Monsoon, in Maine. wonders why
there is so much ado about the day
light saving" plan. According to the
Youths Companion. about 40 years ago
would be a good thing for the work
crs in the slate quarries to gain an
hour OF daylight by going to work an
hour earlier in the morning and stop
ping work an hour earlier at night
The town adopted the suggestion. but
instead of changing the working hours
it set the clocks ahead. Through all
the years since then the clocks OF
Monsoon have beer an hour ahead OF
the clocks in other Maine towns.

USE CARE IN TRANSFORMING
to Sun and Wind-ln Dry Wealth
er Cover With Straw.

One of the greatest mistakes when
shipping trees is that of allowing the
roo to become exposed to sun and
wind. 1t is absolutely necessary to
keep the roots vet from the time the
trees are received from the nursery
until they r planted. All roots that
are injured IN digging should be cut
with a keen knife on the underside
so that the roots will grow straight
down.
If the trees are not ready to
plant, the roots may be perfected by
"heeling them IN" BY this IS meant
to set the tree in a trench and cover
the roOts with loose earth. II tie

Il little straw over the trees and cover

IRON POSTS SUPPORT WIRE
German idea That Makes Their
Trenches Only a Little Way Frfm
Being ~impregnable.

III the Atlantic Monthly Mr.. Edward
Morlae describes a very c~leverl i'm
provellent the Germans have made in
their h~arbed-Wire defenses. yThe.
wires are usually fastened to wobden
posts, of course, but the Germans have
found a better support for them.t He
writes: ~
AFTER WE had taIent the Getman
trench, our men set to work to remodel
it, shifting the parapet to the other
side, building little outpost treIches
and setting barbed wire. The Hitter
job a done in a wonderfully Short
time, thanks TO German thoroughhcSs.
For the wooden stakes to which the
wire is tied they had substituted, soft
iron rods, thr%ee-quarters of an finch
thick. twisted five times in the shape
of a great corkscrew. This screw twist
ed into the ground exactly like a PORK
puller into q cork. The straight part
Of the rod. being twisted upon itself
down and up again every ten inthes,
formed six or seven small loops in Il
height Of about five feet. Into these
eyes the barhed wire was laid and
solidly secured with short lengths of
tying wire.
First cutting the tying wire. we lift
ed the barhed wire ont of the Eyes,
showed a small stick through one. and.
turning the rod with the leverage of
the stick. unscrewed it out of the
ground, and then, reversing the proc
ess, screwed it in again. The ndvan-
tage of this rod is obvious. When Il
shell falls in the midst Of this wire
protection, the rods are bent and twist
ed. but unless broken off short they
always support the wire. and even
after a severe bombardment present a
serious obstacle TO the assaulterS. In
such case wooden posts are blown to
smithereens by the shells. and when
broken off they let the wire fall fiat
to the ground"

PROFIT FROM PIGEONS

Quently matches first, and where there
are several cnses where one SQUAD
outgrows its nest mate, it may be ad-
viSable to sort the squads in the nests
making the pairs as uniform as pos
sible in size and age. If the parent
bird dies the squads may sometimes
be removed to u nest where there is
only one squad, or they may be fed
artiicially, although this process takes
considerable time.
ROOsts of various nzes, usually ar
ranged in perpendicular rows, are
placed at convenient points In the
pen. A good type Of roost Is A
shaped made Of two boards about 3
inches wide and 6 or Z inches long,
placed directly over each other so
that the pigeons will not soil n an
other with their droppings. II hop
pers or feed troughs are used they
should be Of good size, while the hop
pers should be constructed so that
the pigeons cannot waste the grain
easily by throwing it onto the floor.
Fountains or pans with floats In which
the pigeons cannot battle are best
adapted for drinking vessels, while a
galvanized.iron pan from 3 to 4 inches
deep and IS to - inches IN diameter
makes 4 good bath pan.
