A GOOD EXAMPLE.
Crystal Farmer Drags Harrow After
PIOw, Conserving Maximum OF Mois-
ture.

John w. Staley of Crystal is one Of
the few. farmers in the county who
leaves nothing undone which he be-
lieyes is necessary to insure success.
Many farmers admit they do not fol-
low to the letter the best farming
practices, but not so with Mr.. Staley.
One thing Mr.. Staley does that might
p~roftably be followed by many others
is to drag a harrow after his pillow,
-Uhus saving the maximum of moisture.
A few farmers in the county do this.
The larger part of them harrow with
in a few hours after blowing. And a
few trifle with success by narrowing
at any time when the spirit moves
them.
One mile due east of the Crystal
p~ostoffice John W. Staley owns a farm
of $50 acres, the Diamond ] Ranch,
all in one parcel, embracing his origin
al homestead filed on in 1911. OF this
farm zee acres are in cultivation, all
dry farming at an altitude of around
$500 feet. The first year Of farming
on this tract, 1912, saw so acres in
crops in Turkey Red wheat, two
acres in Defiance spring wheat, and
the balance in speltz, flax and pota-
toes. The Turkey Red on the new
ground gave IN average of 3015 bush
els to the acre. The clearing away
Of sagebrush and breaking of ground
continued steadily and this year 133
acres were in winter wheat and q
acres in spring wheat, Turkey Red
and Bluestem being the varieties ad-
hered to on this ranch. Sixteen acres
OF oats were also harvested.
Green Bugs Attack Grain.
The stand of grain this year was
injured by a little bug about the size
of a radish seed which works in clust-
ers and is of a greenish-yellow color.
This insect eats all the roots Of the
grain plant except the tap root, and
frequently it attacks the latter also.
| -On-this ranch two-thirds of the oats
and 10 per cent of the Turkey Red was
so badly injured by the bugs that the
yield is materially reduced. The
spring wheat for three weeks seemed
to be at a total s~tandstill as far as
growth was concerned, but after the
heavy rain of July "a it took on e
life and began to grow; the delay
however, was enough to make the

tremely late. After the heavy rair
mentioned the bugs either were killed
off or sought new haunts, but it is
sure that they disappeared from thu
grain fields. Mr.. Staley has writer
TO competent authorities and an inves
tigation is now under way to deter

guests appear again text spring. MI
Staley prefers Turkey Red because il

ALONG The HIGHWAYS
Gleanings by the Pilgrim in His
Wanderings Here and There

Well up against the eastern foot
hills Of Arbon valley. about 5k miles
southeast Of Arbon postOffice, Harry
Van Horn is farming a ranch of 800
acres. This year he had 120 acres in
Turkey Red which has given a yield
per acre above the average of the val
ley, and the quality Of the wheat has
been pronounced by the threshers to
be Of the best handled by them. At
this writing threshing was in progress
and the yield could not be ascertained.
Up to the time of heading this year
this ranch has been free of mustard.
but since the grain was cut a growth
of the pest has made its appearance
and Mr.. Van Horn intends to eradicate
il by resorting TO spring seeding. On
this ranch. which lies at an altitude
OF $3.50 feet an orchard of 20 trees,
containing apple. pear. plum and cher
~ trees. was set out three years ago
last spring and some cherries were
picked this year. The sweet corn
planted in the garden gave plenty Of
roasting ears. A dairy herd is being
established and the production OF
cream and butter will be an important
feature on this ranch when fully de-
veloped. The flock of Brown LeghOrn
and Rhode Island Red chickens is an
other revenue produced OF this ranch.
Nj. Van Horn believes in diversified
ton as the best way OF successfully
conducting farming operations.

u. S. Won't Become Involved
in Swedish German Trouble

ticipated seizure Of Denmark, according
to the general belief here. It would
mean cutting Off Of a large portion OF
allied supplies to Russia, but on the
other hand such step by Germany
would doubtless drive Norway into the
allied camp.
with Norway numbered among the
enemies of Germany, the allied fleet
would have base on the Norwegian
coast, enabling the Allies TO deal with
the submarine campaign far more ef-
fectively than is now possible. Some
naval authorities are convinced that
such base would mean practically the
cnding of U-bOat activities. The sub
marines have been traversing Norway's
three-mlle limit regardless OF the He
nality of the act But an allied fleet
operating from a Norwegian base would
be able TO hem the U-bOats inside Ger
man waters, the naval experts assert.
One immediate result of the exposure
of the Swedish-Ge connections will
undoubtedly be British prohibition OF
the use of cipher in Swedish cables.
In the meantime England looks to
the possibility Of Argentina abandoning
her precarious neutrality. Regardless
of whether the South American republic
actually breaks with Germany it is felt
here that Argentina's moral force
must surely be thrown definitely on the
side of the allies.
