your section of the state than the Chi
nese bean though probably both VIII
give good account of themselves.
We suggest that the beans be plant
ed on poor land in rows about feet
apart. A couple of beans should be
dropped in each hill Probably IL
bushel of seed will be enough to plant
per acre under this method of manage
ment. The seed should be dropped
about 10 inches apart in the drill. If
you desire to plant the beans in corn
you may put them either in the mid
die of the row or plant them along side
of the corn drill shortly after the
corn is planted. The beans will make
a rapid growth under favorable condi-
tions and will climb freely over the
corn stalks. When planted in the mid
die of the rows they will probably
spread more freely over the ground
and shade it better. Under norma
conditions they should mature to con-
siderable quantity of grain per acre and
certainly they will enrich the soil.
We have grazed cattle on velvet
beans and know it is practical to do
this. OF course not many beans were
formed on the crops grazed. You could
not keep velvet beans through the win
ter season and Craze them to the best
advantage because when the first frost
occurs in the fall the leaves would all
drop off and there would be nothing
much left but the vines and the pods.
AS the pods have a kind of fuzzy coat
ing over them and are hard and brit
tie they are not especially palatable
We prefer to use soy beans and cow
peas and peanuts for hogs. The vel
vet bean we would use as a grain pro-
ducer soil enricher, and as already
pointed out, for pasturage under certain
conditions.
There is no one best variety of cow
peas. We regard the Brabham, the
Iron, Whippowill. the Clay, the large
Black Eye as very good standard varie-
ties. Personally we would prefer to
cultivate the Brabham. Iron or Whip
powill and Clay.
Under cowpeas and other legumes
we would seldom use anything except
acid phosphate at the rate Of 200 to
800 pounds per acre. If you expect to
apply lime to your land use the raw
ground rock at the rate of 1 ton per
acre. Put it on the ground just previ-
Gus to the planting of the legume. We
are inclined to think that under favor
able conditions soy beans will out
yield cowpeas. We prefer the cowpeas
OOy
beans. Legumes can not be expected
to do their best on acid soils. This
difficulty can not be corrected by the
use of lime. Soy beans should grow
on any land adopted to cowpeas, how
ever. We think the Mammoth Yellow
one Of the best standard sorts Of soy
beans. The Japanese bean is also an
excellent variety.
1 would expect under the circum-
stances that the direct rays of the sun
upon the plant would be the hottest
Of course much depends on the angle at
which the glass stands over the hot bed,
also the quality of the glass. Some
glass will reflect a part of the heat of
the suns rays and other glass may
tend to concentrate it.
A stag is much older animal than a
barrow Stays are animals that are
used chilly for manufacture of sau-
sage
We have not regarded it as essential
to use inoculating material with either
velvet or soy beans.

We prefer the drilling of all seed 10
scattering or broadcasting. BY drill
ing we obtain a better stand and econo-
mize in the use of seed.
Peas and sorghums may be grown
separately or together. II desired for
hay they make good combination crop.
We would prefer TO use the Iron, Brab-
ham. whippowill. Clay and Black varie
ties. Any variety of sorghum may be
used 20 go with them. We prefer the
Sumax or Red Head. Use one bushel

DAKOTA FARMERS WAGE
FIGHT UPON GRAIN MEN
Men of Soil Rally in Battle
Against Political
Bondage

FARGO, N. D., April 23.-One of the
most portentious revolts against politi-
cal and economical bondage is today
taking place in North Dakota
Its leader is a modern Don Quixote,
who tits from an old Ford auto against
the bulwarks Of the money kings. And
his lance has grown strong in place of
being shattered.
A. c. Townley is a plain farmer.
Twice he helped the country vote
of North Dakota instruct the legislature
to provide state-owned marketing, stor-
age and terminal facilities for the big
grain crops.
The legislators calmly ignored the
popular demand.
1t was then farmer Townley cranked
up his flivver and sailed forth along
the highways.
"Nonpartisanship is the only hope for
the farmer" was his battle cry.
More than so per cent Of North Dako-
tans live on the land. Like Townley,

Sleep in Hammocks Slung

StoiCiSm
BY LEON sTARMoNT.
Correspondent, Touring Sonora as Guest
of N6axicau Government.

SANTA CRUZ. Sonora, Mexico, April
22-The more you see of Mexican SOL
diers the more they impress you. Iheir
stoicism becomes bravery; their 1atal-
ism becomes daring
When Gavira's troops entrained out Of
Juarez some of them went to sleep In
hammocks - rope hammocks - swung
under the cars. And some of the ropes
were frayed But that didn't disturb
the slumbers of the young boy soldiers,
some of them scarcely fourteen, who
rested soundly as their fragile beds
dipped and tipped only a few inches
above the roadbed and a few feet from
the whirling wheels.
Women and children go along when

At Naco, where General Gales de-
layed his special train SO pictures could
be taken of the troops, there was a
string of box cars on the siding. These
had been converted into movable bar
racks.
On the ground across from the sta
ton women were cooking frijoles in
spiders over Goals set in shallow holes.
Children were running about, some Of
them carrying their daddies' knives or
pistols. Boys with their breasts COW
cred by cartridges in belts ran for their
rifles so they could get the weapons
in the picture, too.
On top of the box cars were more
women, cooking. And little babies Of
three or four toddled about the tops Of
the cars in seemingly great danger Of
falling off.
Probably they never fall, or their
mothers wouldn't let them use the roofs
of cars for Fairgrounds.
General Gales bodyguard which
travelled with us in the special train,
was composed of older, more seasoned
soldiers than the majority of those at
Naco. These were some of the men
with whom Gales, commanding 1880
soldiers at Aqua Prieta, fought off a
force five times its size under General
Maytorena-
They tell some interesting tales of
this battle. In order to impress the
Maytorena regiments with the defend
ers' strength, the Aqua Prieta garrison
bought 1000 straw hats. With these
hats on 1000 soldiers moved through
the trenches, the hats showing over
the top.
AS soon as they reached a spot where
the trenches were out of Mayorena's
sight, the soldiers doubled back to the
starting point, creeping low and carry
ing their hats in their hands.
Thus the 1000 hats passed Mayto-
renas sight three times, in a solid line,
and the attacking force was so i'm
pressed with the strength Of the Aqua
Prieta garrison the attack was not
pressed.

There are several varieties of So
called early maturing velvet beans now
on the market. The speckled is regard
ed as one of the best OF the lot by
many growers. The Chinese bean is
probably a little later in maturing
than some other varieties, It's vigor-
GUS growth, however, is in its favor
and il seeds very freely. This bean is
better adopted to the gulf section than
the northern part of the cotton belt.
The speckled or extra early beans are
probably better adopted for growth in
