DRAINAGE ADDS TO
ACRES AND PROFITS
Practice Improves Physical Con-
dition of Soil by Making 1t
Porous and FriabIe.

Lands that are too wet for the most
profitable production of crops should
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 25 to 100 per cent. and by the
increase yield and the decreased cost
of cultivation the value of the land
is often doubled.
Drainage improves the physical con-
dition of the soil by making it more
porous and friable.
Drained land can be plowed earlier
in the spring than undrained land.
Health conditions are also improved
by the drainage of swamps and stand
ing water.

REMEDY FOR BL0AT
GIVEN IN BULLETIN
Experts of Kentucky Station Rec
ommend Solution of For
maIin as a Drench.

The cause Of and remedy for clio
yer bloat have been found by D. j.
Healy and ]. w. Nutter of the Ken,
lucky agricultural experiment station
These facts are announced in Circula;
No. 5, recently issued by the Ken
lucky station:
Red clover blossoms contain about
So per cent Of sugar, alfalfa blossoms,
2.8 per cent; white clover blossoms,
"a per cent. After being eaten by
stock this sugar undergoes rapid fer
mentation and is converted into car
bon dioxide. This causes the bloating.
The authors of the bulletin strongly
recommend for acute bloating one
quart of liz per cent solution of for
malin. After this is administered, q
wooden block should be placed in the
animals mouth, and the animal should
be given gentle exercise if it can be
got on its feet.
Formalin is trade name for 40
per cent solution of formaldehyde gas
in water and may be obtained at any
drug store for about 40 cents a pint.
One-haif ounce of formalin in one
quart OF water il the proper solution
with which to drench an animal.

FARM FERTILIZERS
HAVE GREAT VALUE
Barnyard Manure Improves Soil
and Makes 1t Easier to Han
dIe-0ther Benefits.

Barnyard manure has value on the
farm aside from thai as a fertilizer
1t improves the physical conditions of
the soil and makes it easier to handle.
It's decay produces heat and its pres
ence aids chemical and bacterial proc
esses. Moreover, it absorbs and holds
large amount of water and helps to
aerate the SOIL The benefits of these
indirect aids to plant growth are in
some cases worth as much as the fer
tilizing power of the manure.
These are observations made by F.
L. Keunard, agronomist in the North
west experiment station at Crookston,
in response to numerous questions re-
ceived from farmers.
When it is added that barnyard man.
ure is worth perhaps $3.50 a ton, and
that each farm animal produces from
five to seven tons per 1000 pounds of
live weight each year, it is easy to see
that as fertilizer the material should
not be wasted.
The best practice is to haul the stuff
from the barn to the fields If
this is done, there is little loss through
fermentation or teaching.

For several years comparative tests
have been made by the Nebraska ex-
pertinent station of narrowing and roll
ing winter wheat, the following ac-
count of which is given by Mr.. E. G..
Montgomery:
Plats were seeded to Turkish red
winter wheat, some sown broadcast,
others put in with a press drill. Some
of the plats were narrowed in both
fall and spring, while others were har-
rowed only in the spring, while third
set was rolled.
1t was quite evident from the re-
suits that no benefit was derived from
the narrowing. In fact narrowing
broadcast wheat resulted in an aver
age loss of almost three bushels per
acre, while narrowing drilled wheat
resulted in a loss of nine-tenths of a
bushel per acre"
The results from rolling were con-
elusive. In no year did it fail ito give
an increased yield, the average in
crease being 81 bushels per acre"
The rolling was given early in the
spring, soon after frost was out, and
about the time growth started. Har-

rowing after rolling was not as good
as rolling alone, probably due to loos-
ening up the plants again after the
roller had pressed them firmly into
the soil.
Early spring rolling of winter
grain, pressing the earth as it does
firmly about the plant roots, produces
good results. When frost comes out
in the spring it IS very apt to leave
the soil filled with small cracks or
checks, especially around the plants.
If these checks are closely examined,
it will be seen that a large number of
roots are thus exposed, and if the
weather continues dry they are killed
or at least injured. If the soil is not
wet at the time of rolling-and it
should never be rolled when wet-roll-
ing aids in no small degree to form
a surface mulch.
The Nebraska experiments, there
fore, point quite clearly to the con-
clusion that under ordinary conditions
of normal seasons in humid regions
winter wheat is sufficiently benefited
by rolling to make the practice profit
able, while narrowing is not to be rec
commended under such conditions.

WHOLE cows MILK
is BEST FOR CALF
Indigestion Often Results When
Young Animals Are Raised
on Skim Milk.
By GEORGE H. GLOVER. Colorado

| By GEORGE H. GLOVER. Colorado

Calves raised on skim milk are
usually runty, pot-bellied, and suffer
indigestion. Whole cows milk is a
perfect food for the calf, but skim
milk is not When the fat is removed
a substitute is sometimes made by
adding a handful of f1axseed meal or
cornmeal, but this sort of fat is not
q full substitute for butterfat.
It is still a debatable question
whether it pays in the long run to
rob the future COW by stunning the calf
for the sake of immediate profits. The
practice of taking the calf Immediately
away from the cow is the usual thing
in the diaries and, assuming that it is
an economical thing to do, the ques-
ton is how TO feed calves on artificial
food and keep them growing properly.
During the first few weeks the calf
is not capable of digesting normally
any food save whole cows milk If
he must subsist on skim milk, a little
faxseed meal or cornmeal had better
be added to the ration. The milk
should always be given warm and
never when it is frothy. Calves should
never be given enough skim milk 10
entirely satisfy their hunger. If indl-
gestion develops, they should be kept
on short rations for day or two. If
scours develop little formalin added
to the milk, combined with a restrict
ed diet, will usually control it within
q few days.
