Our freshest cablegrams are to the
effect that the allied diplomats have
gone to thinking about Russia.
They think that, since German stat
officers are helping to run tho Lenine
pro.German government at Petrograd
Russia may become the tacit if not
the active ally Of Germany.

For three years past, Germany has
kept Russia crammed with spies and
pro-German propagandists, and when
the revolution came, there was Ger
many prepared to solidly back any
promising faction that favored Ger
many. The counter.movc was there
for the allies. There was no substan
tial backing, with funds, food and
advisers, of the civil and military ele'
ments in Russia that were reliably
anti-German. 1t was merely hoped
that kerensky represented such ele
ments. He was even given somewhat
of recognition but he was left to his
fate and is now in the woods, if not,
indeed, in his grave.

" gets behind pro-German Lenine,
and, if the allies fail to act on the
conviction that Germany has bought
up Lenine and will soon be actually
running and using what there is of
Russian government for all that's in
1t for Germany, they misjudge the
enemy.
There seems to be but one hope OF
Russia in sight. General Kaledines,
the great cossack, is reliably reported
TO have control of much of the food,
fuel and transportation facilities. He
wants to fight the pro- erman ele.
ment in Russia. If he is loyal to such
purpose, he might be backed as the
kaiser is backing Lenine.
The Russian people, as a whole, un.
doubtedly favor sticking to their obi
cations to the allies, If they are honor.

really capable of self-government.
They must be sick of having Pctro
grad government on Monday, Mos.
COW government on Tuesday, no gov.
eminent on Wednesday, several gov.
ernments on Thursday and prospects
OF a German government on Friday.
They, very likely, are ready to rise
to any government that has substan.
tial backing and visible power enough
to govern for 80 days in succession.
To back up Kaledines, the allies
would have to abandon some of the
niceties, niceties that do not bother
Germany; for, backing Kaledines
would be promoting civil war But,
so sure as there is any prophecy in
any human events, the alternative is
to see huge new enemy forces pound

Spread the Manure.

From the standpoint of conserving
its plant food about the poorest place
manure can be kept is in heap, writes
correspondent of the Ohio Farmer.
1t is likely to ferment and in so do
ing 1t will lose nitrogen and organic
matter, and unless it is protected from
rains there is likely to be much loss
from teaching. In experiments at the
Ohio station manure stored in heaps
from January to April lost 80 per cent
of its organic matter, % per cent of its
phosphorus, 81 per cent of its POTASH
um and SO per cent of its nitrogen.
While l would not undertake to say
that there are no losses when 1t Is
spread in the field. they are greatly
reduced. as long time experiments have
proved. The greater part of the leach
ings are promptly absorbed by the soil
and are distributed where they are
wanted.

exist. However, where a perennial
cover crop such as alfalfa is grown
other control measures must be taken.
Efficient protection may be secured
by banding the trees with cotton bat
ting or with some sticky substance. In
experiments by the department an
eight inch strip of cotton batting was
placed about the trunk of each tree
and tied with a cord about the middle.
The upper half of the cotton band was
then rolled down over the cord. Good
results also were obtained by applying
to the trunks of the trees band of a
commercial sticky substance one-eighth
inch thick and three inches wide. The
lower limbs of the trees should be kept
well up from the ground and any
props used also should be banded.
bands should be put on in the latter
part of August and left on until after
the fruit is harvested.

DRY FEEDING CATTLE
Advantages of This Method OF Handling
Over Pasturing the Animals.

ADVANTAGES of This Method Of Handling
Over Pasturing the Animals.
At the recent meeting of the Kanka-
kee County Qlll Pure Bred Cattle
Breeders association visitors were
given an opportunity of comparing tho
benefit of the so called dry feeding
over that of pasture for cattle, says
the Orange Judd Farmer.
E. NJ. Wright of Manteno exhibited
two herds, one which had been raised
on blue grass pasture after they were
large enough and another which had
been fed on silage, alfalfa, hay and
cotton seed and which had never run
on pasture in their lives. At the age of
twenty-five months the herd of eleven
cattle which had been dry fed aver
aged 1,4OO pounds each, and at the
same age the herd of cattle which had
run on good blue grass pasture aver
aged a little less than LOO pounds each.
The following is the diet of the calf
until he is large enough to eat the dry
feed: One pound of red dog -four, one
pound of soluble blood -four, one pound
of ground hominy meal and one pound
of linseed meal mixed together in one
gallon of water for one feed. The DEM
onstration showed that more cattle
could be raised by this method on few
er acres of land than by the old pas
ture method

MINERALS IN MILK.
Great Value of Leeumnous Rouehases
In Feeding Cows.

Great Value of Leguminous Rouehases
In Feeding Cows.
Dairy cows ordinarily cannot digest
from rations of the usual character
sufficient mineral matter to meet the
demands made by heavy milk produc-
ton, says the Kansas Farmer. This
conclusion has been reached by nutri-
tion experts at the Ohio experiment
station after two years investigations
with cows yielding large quantities of
milk.
These specialists also say that even
when the common practical rations are
supplemented with large amounts of
calcium carbonate and bone flour the
COWS still give off or use in milk pro-
ductiOr more lime than they can digest
from their rations, To meet this de
mand for heavy milk production the
cows must draw upon the mineral sub
stance of their skeletons.
Further attemnt :" h"i"o made hy
the use of more readily soluble lime
salts to learn whether n COW can alb
sorb as much lime as she gives of
during heavy milk production.
The results obtained thus far empha-
size the value of leguminous rough
ages in milk production. Without lib
eral allowance of such feeds the loss
Of minerals from the bones becomes
excessive and predisposes to disorders

When the chickens are Matched they

this period. l then remove them to

Saua The Alfalfa Leaves.

"Two-thirds of the feeding value of
the alfalfa plant is the leaves" says a
writer in the Farm and Fireside. IF
the leaves are lost in curing only one
third of the feeding value remains.
This makes it important that alfalfa
hay be cured so as to save the leaves.
This means that the alfalfa must be
raked into windows before the leaves
dry or they will fall off. The alfalfa
should be raked into windows an hour
or two after being cut. This not only
saves the leaves, but also keeps the al

SPRING POULTRY WORK.
Proper Method of Handling Incubator
to Secure Good Results.

IprAnared by United States department of
agrlcuItuIv.I
Poultry raisers who wish to produce
eggs next fall and winter should begin
now to plan for the early setting OF
eggs. In the central group of states
settings should be made from the early
part to the last of February and in the
northern tier of states from the latter
part of February to about the middle
Of April. With settings timed on this
schedule the chicks will hatch in am
pie time to allow their maturity before
cold weather. The pullets from these
broods should lay during the late fall
or early winter, when eggs are scarcest-
One difficulty In setting eggs in spring
at selected dates if the natural system
Of incubation is followed is in finding
broody hens at the proper times. II
natural incubation is depended upon
exclusively it probably will be best for
the poultry raiser to disregard dates
and make settings whenever broody
hens are available
The suggested schedule can be fol-
lowed exactly If an incubator is used.
The machine should be operated In a
warm room, preferably a cellar, as
protection against outside temperature
changes. 1t should be disinfected
thoroughly before being used with a
solution of reliable coal tar disinfec-
tant. After disinfection the incubator
should be run empty for several days
to get it into good operating condition.
After the eggs are in place the tenn
perature should be held at from 1914
degrees to 102 degrees F. the first
week, 102 degrees TO 103 degrees the
second week and at 103 degrees the
third week
The eggs usually are turned for the
first time at the end Of the second day
and twice daily through the eighteenth
or nineteenth day. The eggs are cool
ed outside the Matching chamber once
daily after the seventh and up to the
nineteenth day. Moisture should be
furnished in artificial incubation in the
south in high attitudes, and when the
incubator room is dry. This may be
done by sprinkling the eggs with warm
water or by placing a wet sponge or
pan of water under the egg tray.

Disinfect the incubator after each
hatch. This is not difficult to do, and
the little extra work is well warranted
by the feeling of security Use mild
disinfectant, one that will evaporate
quickly, and apply it with a brush or
spray pump. Carbolic acid or one of
the other coal tar products will do
nicely for this purpose. Be sure to
air the interior of the machines thor
oughly before starting another hatch.
The fumes OF the disinfectant may in
lure the eggs if you do not.
