SARDINIA'S SAINTS DAYS
Each Village Has Its Annual Festival,
When 1t Celebrates the Birthday
of Its Patron.

Each "pease' or village of Sardinia
has it's annual festival to celebrate
the birthday of it's own particular
saint or some other church feast. The
most renowned of these is the fiesta"
of saint Efisid," the national feast OF
the island. The ceremony is In the
form of procession from Cagliari, the
chief city of Pula, village nine miles
away, with the return to Cagliari. The
saint was an official in the army of
Diacletian, and for his conversion to
Christianity was beheaded at Pula.
At midday on May l the procession
leaves and returns on the evening OF
May 4. 1t is composed Of cavalcade
of horsemen, all in the costume of the
ancient Sandman militia, eScOrting the
image of the saint, which is preceded
by musicians playing the launeddas, an
instrument made of three or four reeds
of different lengths and resembling the
pipe of ancient times.

CUTTING CROPS FOR SILAGE
Most Plants Reach Full Feeding Value
at or Near Maturity, Accord
inq to an Expert.

Silage crops should not be cut until
they are we'll toward maturity. Most
crops reach their full feeding value at
or near maturity. To make silage OF
them before this stage is wasteful.
The silage will be low in feeding
value it is usually sour and may spoil.
According to John NJ. Scott, AMI
NAL industrialist to the University
of Florida experiment station, more
poor silage is made from immature
than from over-ripe crops.
Corn should never be cut when the
ear is forming, because most of the
food is made after that stage. 1t
should be cut when the grain Is in
the hard dough stage and beginning
to dent or when the outside shucks
on the ears are drying and turning
brown. Sorghum makes the best sill
age when the seeds are in the
hard dough stage. Some of the lower
leaves may be dry at this time but
water can be added If necessary.
A crop is never too dry to be put
into the silo as long as there are
some green blades on the stalks. The
farmer is more apt to cut his silage
crop too soon than too late. If 1t is,
too dry to make good silage, water
may be added at the cutting box or at
the fan.

| IMMENSE VALUE OF PASTURE
What One Farmer Did With Twelve
Acres Is Related by Arkansas
College Of Agriculture.

AS to the value of pasture for live
stock q circular from the extension
department of the College of Agricul-
ture of Arkansas says:
"A farmer near Forest City has a
12-acre permanent pasture on which
he pastured from April 1, 1915, to Oc-
tober Is, 1915, so cows, 5 horses and
II sows and their pigs. This Is one
of the greatest pasture reports ever
sent to the extension Office of the
University of Arkansas and United
States department Of agriculture at
Little Rock. This statement was veri-
fed by many neighbors. The pasture
has Bermuda grass for its base, with
bur clover, white clover, hop clover
and lespedeza, thus giving pasture for
practically the whole year. Stock had
been kept on this particular pasture
every day for seven years. The farmer
stated in a public meeting recently
that these II acres had produced more
money for him than any 80 acres or
his farm.

The greatest waste of southern soil
and soil fertility is not through the
crops sold from the farm or from our
one-crop system of cotton farming. Our
loss of soil fertility Is very much great
er because of the bare condition of our
soils during the winter when the rain
fall is heavy and through the teaching
out of plant foods and the washing
away of the finest and best part OF our
lands.
One Greatest Need.
Our one greatest need is winter
legume cover crops, or to keep the land
busy; our greatest agricultural asset is
the fact that our climate enables us
to grow a cover crop that will gather
nitrogen from the air and increase the
fertility of our soils between the time
our money or regular summer feed
crop is harvested and the time for
planting this crop the following spring.
Our greatest need would thus be met
by the use of our greatest agricultural

one special opportunity. Without the
loss of single cotton or corn crop,
the yields of these crops per acre can
be doubled in four or five years. be-
cause the growing of winter legumes
will. while preventing washing and
teaching, gather nitrogen from the air
and supply the humus and the nitro
gen which our soils need to double
their yields.
Legumes on Idle Land.
There is no section of this country
where increased soil fertility is so
needed nor any section where 1t Is so
easy to obtain, If we would only grow
winter and summer legumes on the
land when 1t is not busy growing our
regular crops of cotton, corn, oats,
wheat, etc. Why we do not grow more
of these legumes until our soils are
made more fertile is beyond all human
understanding. Their value Is appar.

KEEPING RECORDS OF COWS
Not Difficult Matter to Keep Track
Of MiIk-Test for Per Cent
Of Butterfat.

Keeping track of how well the cows
are doing-or how poorly-is not such
difficult matter. If the milk is
weighed up once month, taking both
milkings for one day from each cow,
and then that weight is multiplied by
the number of days in the month, the
total weight of milk for the month
produced by each cow is found. This
will be close to the actual production.
BY testing a sample of the milk, the
percent of butterfat can be learned.
From these figures can be computed
the amount of butterfat for the month
from each cow.
