Top Dressing Of Wheat Land.

Every year sees n greater number
4 Missouri farmers using manure rs
4 ton dressing on wheat. There Is
considerable evidence to show where
wheat Is grown in n rotation. manure
AN very often be applied TO better ad-
vantage as n top dressing on this
'rop than rs an application before
'orn. There are two principal ndvan-
ages of this practice. The first one
s that II greatly stimulates the
growth Of the wheat and helps to pre-
vent winter killing with a resulting
increase in yield. The second one IL
hat since clover and grass are usually
Gown with the wheat and since ma.

stand Of these crops when used ~ o
top dressing with the wheat, this
alone may be sufficient reason for It's
application. As q matter Of fact the
top dressing Of wheat with manure
almost insures a stand Of clover Or
grass on land which is at oil suited tn
these crops. The land may be too
sour or TO wet TO grow clover. Much
land In Missouri Is too sour. II II II

Can You Beat II?

We believe James and Jesse Cain
are entitled to the blue ribbon for re-
ults In hog raising. Last week, they
sold n bunch Of 6s head, averaging
2T3,s pounds, topping the st. Joseph
market. Mr.. Cain tells us that they
kept an accurate record Of the far.
rowing time, md that these hogs
average age was eight months and siN
lays. That Is 246 days, SO that the
average growth from narrowing time
was better than ! lilo pounds pei
day. This result in feeding SHOWS
what alfalfa and corn will do. The
pigs were weaned at less than three
months old. and with q little milk,
plenty Of alfalfa, pasture and corn,
they made this remarkable growth.
They were not lot fed. but gathered
their own corn until within few days
Of marketing.

The Missouri College Experiment
Station has demonstrated the fact
that gains may be put on fattsning
hogs rapidly and economically by the
use Of self feeders.
Shoats weighing 1910 pounds at
the beginning Of q sixty-day feeding
period gained Ito pounds q head
daily, weighing $3.50 pounds at the
close Of the feeding trial. During
this time they were supplied corn,
shorts and tankage, each of these
feeds being placed In q separate self
feeder and the shoats allowed to eat
q much of each as they wished.
When 10 fed they seemed TO balance
their rotation about o. well as could
be done by hand feeding. The pro-
portion In which the feeds were eaten
are: Corn, 20.66 pounds; shorts, sos
pounds; and tankage, I pound. The
average daily feed consumed per hos
was 6.185 pounds. The amount q
feed required for each pound Of gain
produced was ass pounds.
With corn worth 65 cents bushel
shorts 31.85 per hundred and tankagl
$3.50. Il cost 96.e8 TO produce on

Bliss Reports Good
Health Conditions
In The Border Camps

WASHINGTON. July "a. - Major
General Bliss advised the war depart
ment today that he had completed in
spections of the Missouri, New Hamp-
shire and Maine infantry camped at
Laredo, Texas, and found health con-
ditions excellent. less than one per
cent Of the command being in the hos
pital and no serious cases reported.
The water supply while abundant in
all cases, General Bliss said, had TO
be boiled for drinking purposes, but
the Laredo authorities would take i'm
mediate steps to improve publication
and rendering boiling unnecessary.
The command was reported excel
lentIy sheltered. with exception of two
of the Fourth Missouri for
which new tents had ben reQuisi-
toned.
Regarding the food supply, the gem
eral said officers reviewed by him
had stated it was abundant in guam
rity and of excellent quality. He
added that a general spirit of con-
tentment existed among the men.
General Bliss also said:
the enlisted personnel are being bonn
barded with letters from home beg
ging them TO return and take advan-
tage of any opportunity offered to get
out of the service. Thus far the men
themselves seem TO pay little atten-
tion to this. | think that what may
prove 10 be a principal cause of un-
rest among certain classes of the en-
listed personnel is the information
which commanding officers tell me is
coming from their homes to the effect
that employers who promised to con-
tinue pay or part pay and also hold
their positions for employees in the
ranks are now saying that as there
is to be no war their promises as to
those matters are no longer good.
There is one thing that is particu-
larry noticeable and pleasing among
the troops that have thus far seen
Immediately along the border, and
that is the practical absence of in
toxicating liquors in the camps"
