Potash Does Not Paw,


South Dakota soils are not deficient
in potash, and application of this ele.
ment does not pay,-in fact 1t is used
at a loss as a fertilizer, according to
j. G.. Hutton, associate agronomist OF
the state experiment station. This
statement was made by Professor Hut,
ton in reply to a recent inquiry on the
part Of a national potash corporation,
He said further hat 1.-The use OF
nitrogen, another element of plant
food contained in commercial ~fertiliZ
ers, has never paid a profit on any OF
our experimental fields and since it is
possible for South Dakota farmers to
secure all the nitrogen they need
through the growth of legumes, such
as clover, sweet clover and alfalfa,
which are grown very successfully in.
deed in this region, it does not seem
that there is any possibility of South
Dakota furnishing a market for this
material.

Of English bond, Flemish bond and
other special methods of laying, to-
Sether with the use OF colored mortar,
relieves the mOnotony of the more
common methods of laying up brick
work. Provided with these possibili-
ties, it is not strange that brick has
found the favor which is expressed by
Its increasing popularity.
In the design of a house intended to
have a brick porch it is usually found
that a greatly improved appearance
may be obtained by also including the
chimneys and foundation wall from
grade up to the stills of the house in the
brickwork. When an outbuilt chimney
is used this effect is particularly
marked. In order to bring out the de-
sired contrast in color effect, it is usu-
ally the custom to paint the house
white and use white stone or concrete
for the caps of columns and rails.
This treatment makes the brickwork
stand out and also gives the house a
neat, well-kept appearance.
The design shown in the accompany
ing illustrations is an interesting ex-
ample of the pleasing effect which may
be obtained by using a brick porch and
outbuilt brick chimney in connection
with a frame house. Although simple
ity is the keynote in the design, and

BEET SUGAR YIELD.
Crop at Belle Fourche Averages Eight
TO Fifteen Tons an Acre.

to Fifteen Tons an Acre.
Lead.-According to Philip Dale, ag-
ricultural superintendent of the Great
Western Sugar company at Belle
Fourche, estimates on the sugar
beet yield on the experimental acre
age are said to average from eight to
fifteen tons per acre, test showing the
sugar content to be from ii to 20 per
cent. The entire crop will be harvest
ed by November 10.
Acreage contracts for next years
crops are being let by local farmers
to representatives of the company;
though the plots are smaller than n
ticipated, and in many instances the
farmers are showing a marked reti-
cence in letting ground for beet cult
walton. This is considered a serious
handicap, for the Great Western COM
pany has expended large amounts in
experimental work. They desire nov
the cooperation of the farmers and a
guaranteed tonnage of sugar beets be-
fore considering the erection of a re-
finery.
The argument that a sugar beet fac
tory means quicker development for
the country, a higher value on lands
and bigger gains of the farmer is pur-
ported TO eventually arouse a universal
interest and reasonable cooperation.
