Make The Church The
 Meeting House"

The country church-the consolidated country church wherever possible-with it's auditorium, with it's library, with it's manse made and it's ex- ample of beauty by its glory of lawn and schrub and hedge and flower-and even with it's a,h- letic field-this place should become a social center, a center 'of community life, not merely one day in the week but seven days in the week. The ser mons on the Sabbath should be all the more powerful because the pastor knows the life of the people, is one of them, and speaks to them in their langu- age; and the church should be in the service of the Master not merely one day in the week instead of one day in the month, but all the time.

'1he Scrub SircS
 Never Pay

Quality becomes more essen- Eial to profit in livestock farm ing each season. When labor land, and feed were cheap it was possible to realize a profit yon livestock of an inferior grade, but with the present high cost of these production factors and a constant discrim- ination on the market against fhe "scrub" it has become evil dent that the greatest profit can be expected only from live stock of good quality. It may be possible for the feeder or dealer to make a profit on in feriOr livestock if he is able to buy it sufficiently cheap and sell quickly, but usually someone has not realized the greatest possible profit when scrub goes to market. If it is not the feeder, it is the man who pro- ,daced the animal.
 At the Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station lambs sired Sby a S3O mutton ram and out sof Western ewes weighed 2.54 pounds more at three months of age than lambs out of the same kind of ewes by scrub ram weighed at four months.
 The well-bred lambs were ready flor market a month earlier, they ate only about one-half as much feed, and they sold for nearly $3 more per hundred than did the lambs from the in- Gerior ram.
 Just recently two Utah ranch man are reported to have sold :. their cattle on the same market son the same day. Both used 1he same amount of National forest range per head and paid ahe same grazing fee. One had a1sed good bulls to produce his cattle, the other had not. The good cattle brought $40 per nead more than the poor cattle.
 Whether the livestock is cat ale, hogs, sheep, or horses, the good ones are appreciated when sold and consequently bring higher prices and normally yield greater return. The most practical means of improve anent is through the use of good ssires, for the male may become sthe parent of from 40 to 100 an- finals each year.-Missouri Elk ioeriment Station.

legunles Campaign Is a
 Great Success

Farm demonstration agents An every one of the 55 counties who have reported, say that a satisfactory acreage will be planted to clover and other cov- ar crops, according to c. w. Watson, state agent.
 "The legumes campaign is progressing in a manner that is more than satisfactory" says Mr. Watson. This is due to ahree things. One is the vigor- eous campaign that has been waged by the state, government and university forces, the Ark sansas Bankers Association, the Arkansas Profitable Farming Committee and other Organiz-
 
 ations of business men. An other cause that has cOntribut- ed to the success of the cam paign is the scarcity of feed, caused by the drouth. Except in eastern Arkansas, where the heavier loams are not so easily affected by the dry weather, both corn and hay crops will be short A third factor is that an southern Arkansas the boil weevil has done considerable damage and this has caused the farmers to turn to cover crops.
 These three factors have caused the success of the cam paign to exceed expectations. Practically every agent reports

Try Shocking Corn
 Against a,Vhe
By A. D. McNair.


 In experiments conducted last year on three farms in Arkansas corn was cut and shocked against a single strand of barbed wire and it kept sound and all right, even though some of it, which was cut in middle August, stood out in all the rainy weather of that month. The object of shocking against strand of wire is to make sure that the corn stalks cannot fall down or lean over because as long as they stand up straight the corn will keep until mid winter or spring.
 The object of harvesting corn in this manner is twO-fOld. First, all the fodder is saved for feed. Second, the land is clear ed early, permitting it to be plowed early for winter oats or other fall grain. In many cases the corn stubble need not be plowed, but may be disced with a disk harrow and winter grains or winter clover sowed.
 Where to Shock.
 The corn may be shocked in the field or may be hauled to a lot near the barn and shocked there. If shocked in the field one wire across the field will be sufficient for 100 rows of corn. Posts to support the wire may be three to four rods apart. If shocked in small pasture near the barn posts may remain in permanent position and the barbed wire also or the wire can be fastened up and taken down when corn is shocked and when it is removed, respectively.
 How to Cut.
 The corn may be cut by hand knife or sickle or with sled cut ters or it may be cut and bound with a corn binder. In any case it must be hauled or carried to the wire and stood against it.
 The time to cut is just past the stage when it is fit for the silo or it is when the outside of the shuck is yellow and two- thirds of the blades ore green. Early corn is already in this stage or past it.
 The corn may be fastened to the barbed wire by stretching two strands of wire, smooth or barbed, one on each side of the shock row and tying them to- gether at convenient intervals.
 Value of Fodder.
 The value of the fodder after the ears have been taken off is approximately three to five dol lars per acre.
 All crops grow better if the land is broken several weeks be- fore planting and a rain falls in the interim and settles the soil. If corn is harvested in the old way and planted to win ter grains the breaking must be late, but if harvested at the time and in the manner sug- gested the breaking may be six

Why Cover Crops Are
 Now NeCt Ssary

Why are cover crops general ly desirable and why are they especially necessary in the South?
 At all times, when there are sufficient moisture and heat present in the soil, more or less plant foods, especially nitrogen, are likely to become soluble in the soil water. When these plant foods become soluble in bare soil, rain heavy enough to cause water to run over the surface or pass down through the soil into the SubsOi1 carries away beyond the reach of the roots of the succeeding crop more or less soil, or plant foods. In other words, heavy rain on a bare soil is apt to cause wash ing (erOSiOn) or the teaching out, down into the subsoil, of the nitrates (nitrogen) which are soluble in the water.
 These are the two chief req sons for a cover crop, the pre- vention of washing and leach ing, but there are others of but little less importance. The roots of growing plants have a more or less solvent (dissolv- ing) effect on the mineral plant foods in the soil. The roots of these growing cover crops dis solve and take up these min eral plant foods which are used by the plants in their growth. If this crop is then plowed und- CT, pastured or fed and the stable manure returned, these mineral plant foods are return ed to the soil in organic form in plants-which, owing to it's quick decay, supplies these plant foods to succeeding crops in the most desirable form.
 A cover crop may also sup ply when plowed under, humas forming materials, which will add to the water-holding power and improve the mechanical condition of the soil.
 ! Now, when a cover crop is on the land, the roots penetrate to all parts of the soil and any plant foods which may become dissolved or available are taken up by the roots and used by the plants before they can be leach ed out by excessive rains. In this way the plant foods are held and when the cover crop is plowed under and decays these plant foods are not only made available for feeding suc- ceeding crops, but in the decay of the cover crops still other plant foods, which have been insoluble in the soil, are made soluble or available to still fur ther feed the crops.
 No one can pass through the South and observe the gullied and washed soils and note the muddy streams, after every rainfall, without being impress sed with the need of a crop on the soil all the time to prevent its washing away. A bare soil is almost certain to wash away in some places; or where the land is more level, teaching may take place. The extent to which this takes place will depend on a large number of factors. For instance, rolling soil is more likely to wash away, while a sandy or loose soil is more like ly to leach. A soil containing much humus will hold more water before it begins teaching or washing than one depleted in humns. It is also apparent that where the rainfall is heavy and where the soil does not remain

that some of the larger farmers of his county will plant satis- factory tracts to crimson clover. In fact, the amount that will be planted probably will be a. bout all that could be planted because of the scarcity of seed.
 "The fact that crimson clover is costing $S.5O bushel and Is difficult to secure at that price, puts it out of the reach of the smaller farmers, but many of these are sowing burr clover which can be bought for $1.OO a bushel, and abruzzi rye, which can be bought for $2.50 a bu. and one bushel will seed three acres.
 Permanent Pastures Increased
 Another feature of agricul- tural development in Arkansas that has impressed me as 1 have travelled about the state is the great increase in permanent pastures This largely is due to the fact that business men all over the state have been eh- couraging the farmers to buy better livestock and giving them financial assistance. Bet ter live stock necessitates bet ter pastures. These pastures consist of bermuda grass, crim- son clover, burr clover and les pedeza.
 "In eastern Arkansas, the tendency is to increase the acre. age of alfalfa. This section of the state with it's rich soil, is producing some magnificent al- faica.
 'In q general way, the agents are advising the farmers to raise for cover crops crimson, burr and red clover and abruzzi rye; for permanent pastures, Bermuda grass, lespedeza and clover, and for hay, alfalfa.
 Weevil Damage Reduced.
 While the drouth has reduc- ed the corn and hay crops, it has been benificial in reducing the damage done by the boil weevil. Had it not been for the hot, dry weather, the situation undoubtedly would have be- come serious in southern Ark ansas.
 Also, I have found that the farmers have been following the instructions of the various agricultural agencies in fight ing the boil weeyil. In this work the Arkansas Profitable Farming Committee and other organizations of business men gave valuable assistance in i'm pressing upon the farmers the importance of carrying out the instructions of the agricultural specialists. The result has been that the farmers all over the state picked up the fallen squares when the weevil first appeared and since that time they have been intensively cul- tivating their cotton. With weather conditions ideal for fighting the weevil, the result has been that the damage has been reduced to a minimum. It has been much less than we be- lieved it would be a month ago.

Advise Farmers t0 Build SiIOS

Build a SilO', just issued by the Arkansas Profitable Farm ing Bureau. Several thousand copies have been sent by the bureau to Arkansas business men with the request that they distribute them among the farmers with whom they come in contact.
 While it is now too late in the season to build silos, this is the time of the year when-the farmers begin to fill their silos. Hence the bureau deemed it an Opportune time to remind the farmers of the advantages of the silo and thus have an object lesson before them.
 Although it is short, the cir cular carries the punch that marks all the literature sent out by the bureau. It is so small that it can easily be en- closed in letters that the busi- ness men write to their farmer customers. It is another eX- ample of the efficient methods that the bureau is using to set the farmers to thinking.
 The circular, which was writ ten by H. M. Cottrell, agricul- turist of the bureau o Farm Development of the Memphis Business Mems Club, is as fol- lows:
 Build X SilO.
 Silage is as essential for a stock man as a bank account is for merchant or manufactur- er When drouth comes in the summer, feed silage until the rains make the pasture good again. Feed silage every day in winter. You can begin feed ing from a silo the day you fin- ish filling it, or if you do not need the silage, it will be as good eight years after it is stor- ed as during the first season. You can feed silage regularly every day and you can open a silo dozen times a year, feed as long as you need it, then seal the surface and what is left will keep we'll.
 "The increased returns from feeding silage will frequently pay for the silo the first year. Many stOckmen have found that the saving in hay by feed ing silage has in one winter paid for the silo. Crops are put in the silo so early that the land is cleared for fall seeding of winter growing grains and clovers.
 "Silage is not a complete feed. It has the same place in feeding cattle that bread and potatoes have as food for peo- pie and should be fed with al- falfa, cowpea, Lespedeza or Spanish peanut hay that supply the same needs in feeding cat tie as do meat, milk and eggs for human beings. Silage is particularly valuable to feed with cOttOnseed meal as each is rich in the food materials that the other lacks.
 Beef cattle fed silage while being fattened make cheaper gains, have a better finish and bring higher price because of their more sappy condition and sleeker coats. Silage usually increases the yield of milk one third. Silage is a profitable feed for lambs and sheep. It is a poor hog feed, except in small quantities. It is a dan geriOus feed at the hands of the average feeder for horses and mules. A small quantity fed daily in winter to hens stimu- lates egg laying"

FOOD FACTS
What an M. D. Learned.

A prominent physician down in
ence which he makes public:
1t was my own experience that first
led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food;
and I also know from having pre-
scribed it to convalescents and other
weak patients that this food is won
derful rebuilder and restorer of nerve
and brain tissue, as we'll as muscle. It
improves the digestion and patients
gain, just as I did in strength and
weight, very rapidly.
II was in such low state that
I had to give up my work entirely and
go to the mountains, but two months
there did not improve me; in fact
was not quite as we'll as when l left
home. My food did not sustain me
and it became plain that 1 must
change.
Il began to use Grape-Nuts and in
two weeks could walk a mile, and in
five weeks returned to my home and
practice, taking up hard work again.
Since that time have felt as we'll and
strong as I ever did in my life.
LAS a physician who seeks to help
all sufferers / consider it a duty to
make these facts public"

the regular food does not seem to sus-
tain the body will work wonders.

Ever since the discovery of uric acid
in the blood by Scheele, in ITS, and
the bad effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have striven
to rid the tissues and the blood of
this poison. Because Of it's over
abundance in the system it causes
backache, pains here and there. rheu-
mat1sm, gout, gravel, neuralgia and
sciatica 1t was DR.. Pierce who dis
covered new agent, called "Anuric,"
which will throw out and completely
eradicate this uric acid from the sys-
tenn. "Anuric'' is 81 times more po-
tent than HthiG, and consequently you
need no longer fear muscular or ar
