QUALITY OF Wheat
CAN BE CONTROLLED
Bulletin Of Colorado Experiment
Station Tells Cause of YELL
low Berry and Remedy.

(By c. p. GILLETTE, Colorado Agricul-
tural College, Fort Collins.)
Millers prefer wheat that is hard
and flinty, to a wheat that is made
up of kernels that are white and
starchy in cross-section. Kernels of
the latter type are softer and more
easily crushed and are spoken of as
soft wheat" A considerable reduc-
tion in price is often made when this
soft" wheat is offered for sale.
DR.. W. p. Headden of the Colorado
agricultural experiment station, has
succeeded in determining the u
of this trouble and also the remedy,
which every farmer can supply. He
tells all about it in Bulletin 205 of
the experiment station which will be
sent free to any farmer who will write
for 1t.
In brief, the cause of "yellow-berry'
Is a high percentage Of potash in the
soil in proportion to the available
nitrogen. The remedy Is to keep the
nitrogen content of the soil as high
as possible without increasing the
potash. This may be done by the ad-
dition Of ~nitrates, the rotation of
crops in which alfalfa or some other
legume is used, and by proper tillage.

PREPARE HOLES FOR
YOUNG FRUIT TREES
Dynamite Is Being Used Exten-
siveIy for That Purpose and
Proving of Big Value.

If you do not want to plant fruit
trees in the fall for fear they will be
lifted by the frost, you can prepare
the holes for them during the winter,
and they will be all the better for the
action Of the frost, and the moisture
and air will make available some Of
the elements stored in the subsoil. Dy-
Mantle is being used extensively for
digging holes for trees and it is prov
ing of great value, there being a marked
difference in the growth of the trees,
but not all soils will admit of this proc
ess, and it is advisable to test yours
by examining one or two holes after
blasting. If the soil is loosened and
broken up it is all right. but If the
charge has expended most Of its force
in packing the soil firm around the
rather small hole opened up you had
better dig the holes in the old way.

SHo............

(By r. D. HEBB)
Something of what the silo means to
every farm is shown in the above
genealogical tree" The silo is one
of the greatest conservators Of food
values and Of land fertilities on the
farm. By its use stock is furnished
with green roughage during the win
ter months when such feed has for
years been thought out of the Ques-
ton. 1t furnishes an economical ra-
ton at a time when fOodstuffs are
high.
Increased Fertility.
1t means increased fertility to the
soil because the owning Of a silO
means the owning of more livestock.
More feed can be stored in a given
space In the form of silage than in the
form of fodder or hay. There is less
loss Of food material when a crop Is
made into sllage. Crops can be put
into the silo during weather which
cannot be utilized in making hay or
fodder. There is less waste; good
silage Is all consumed. The accumu-
lation of more livestock on the farm
means an increased income for the
farmer.
Many county agents are making de-
termined campaigns in their communi-
ties for the building of silos and these
campaigns invariably result in increas-
ing the bank account of the farmer.
Succulent Feed.
To the dairyman of the East the silo
means the succulence of pasture all

the year round, cheaper feeding, thrift
ty animals, and increased production.
Adopted by the dry-land dairyman the
silO loses none of its virtues and in
addition becomes his n real effective
weapon against drought. Every dry
land dairyman should have three times
the silO capacity he expects to need
in any one season. In favorable years
it provides the extra storage room
necessary for saving the large crop,
and if several years of drought Sue
coed n another, the reserve supply
can be drawn upon to tide over the
adversely. This reserve is his insur-
ance against drought.
Destructive droughts sometimes oc-
u when a crop is half or two-thirds
grown. At such critical times the silo
is of peculiar value for entirely saving
the growth made. Under the present
system Of depending on pasture In
summer and dry feeding in winter pro-
ductiOn is confined almost entirely to
the summer months. The dairyman
with a silo finds that production is
possible all the year round, and that
winter production is far more profit
able because of the higher prices Of
fered for the product.
The silO is revolutionizing the whole
feeding practice and is putting 1t
on a sound basis. 1t awakens the set
tier to q realization of the benefits to
be derived from other improvements,
such as better shelter and the breed
ing up of his herd.

"The loss resulting from feeding in
ferior cattle has been well demon
strated experimentally at the Kansas
station" said Doctor McCampbell. "In
this experiment, we'll bred-but not
purebred-cattle of desirable beef
type were compared with cattle the
same age and somewhat larger, yet
not of the type most desirable for con-
verting feed into beef.
"The good beef type-quality cattle
made a daily gain Of 2.22 pounds
while the undesirable type, although
receiving the same amount Of feed,
made a gain of only 1.76 pounds daily.
The gain on the good type cattle cost
$S.15 a 100 pounds while the gain on
the coarser cattle cost $10.25 a 100
pounds. This experiment demonstrates
that one of the essentials in making
beef is the selection of the right kind
Of feeders.
"a good feeder must be close to the
ground, have a short, broad head
with a strong muzzle, a wide, straight
top, a wide, deep chest, a capacious
middle, a deep flank, deep, full quar-
tiers, and withal, plenty of substance
and lots Of quality"
