plus there may be and. If 1t is not used

Building a home, adding something

FERTILIZER FOR TRUCK
Three Types Used in Cultivation
of Potato Crop.
Soy Beans cowpeas and Velvet Beans
Are Chiefly Used by Truckers Along
Atlantic Seaboard for
crsen Manuring.
Rv G CORRECTLY

Preliminary results OF investigations
now in progress to determine the kind
and quality Of fertilizer best adapted
to truck crops indicate that on the
soils of the Long Island and Norfolk
areas tine source of potash for q potato
fertilizer should be sulphate of potash,
and that the use of large quantities of
nitrate In the form of nitrate Of soda
Is not economical. The treatments
which show greatest promise in both
areas as q result Of two years trial
are heavy applications of c%ottonseed
meal, tankage, and sulphate of potash.
Three types of fertilizers are used
In the cultivation of potatoes, namely,
commercial fertilizers, green manures,
and farmyard manufes. Commercial
fertilizers are extensively used In the
production Of truck-crop potatoes,
particularly on the Atlantic seaboard.
If they are supplemented at all 1t is
by growing a crop of green manure
upon the land the previous season and
turning It under so that 1t will become
thoroughly decomposed before the po-
tatoes are planted. Fol- this purpose,
soy beans, cowpeas, or velvet beans
are chiefly used. These should be

COLT INFECTED WITH WORMS
Animals Generally Have Good Appc-
title, but Apparently Benefit Little
From Food Ration.

Many horses lose condition, or fail
to make gains daring winter months
because they are infected with worms.
This is especially true Of colts. Horses
suffering from WORMS generally have Il
good appetite, but apparently benefit
little from the food eaten.
There may be no symptoms which
point conclusiyely to worms, but this
trouble is so common that if the colts
and horses are not doing as well as
they should for the feed given, a
worm remedy may prove of decided
value. In treating horses for worms,
DR.. L. S. Backus of the University Of
Missouri College of Agriculture sug-
gests Ii is well to keep in mind that
the drug is meant for the worm ratl-
er than the horse, and should therefore
be given in as concentrated form as
possible. To insure this, little or no
bulky food should be fed during the
course of treatment, and as the para
sites are stupefied by worm remedies
rather than killed, the animals bowels
should be kept In an active condition
SO that the stupefied worms may be
passed out before they regain their vi
tality. A well sailed bran mash once
a day will generally insure such an
action.
The following formula is q worm
remedy which is also Of value as Il

plowed down the previous fall as soon
as they are sufficiently mature.
AS little farmyard manure is avail
able in the southern states where the
early crop of potatoes is chiefly pro-
duced, this seldom enters as a factor
in the production of the crop. Com
mercial fertilizers of a nature espe-
cially adapted to the potato crop form
the chief reliance of the growers. A
fertilizer carrying 3 to A per cent of
nitrogen, 6 to s per cent of phosphoric
acid, and 8 to 10 per cent of potash
Is used at the rate of 800 to 1900
pounds to the acre, depending upon
the crop which is to follow the po-
tato crop and the liberality of the
grower.
The fertilizer may be applied broad
cast If put on at the rate of 1000
less than 1000 pounds to the acre are
used 1t is almost universally applied
along the line of the row, q furrow
being opened for the reception of the
fertilizer, which is scattered by hand
or by q distributor which can be used
to fertilize several rows ut a time.
After the fertilizer has been distrib-
uted, a c~ultivator is run along the line
of the ROY to incorporate the fer
tiliZer with the soil in order TO pre-
vent it's coming in contact with the
seed when planted.
Sometimes the furrow is refilled and
reopened prior to the planting of the
seed, so as to incorporate the fertilizer
more completely with the soil. Still
another plan is to open the furrow, dis
tribute about one-half the quantity of
fertilizer to be used in the bottom, in
corporate 1t with the soil, plant the
potatoes, partially owe them, and
scatter the remainder of the applica-
ton ON the seeded above the seed.

HIGH GRADE STOCK FAVORED
Farmer Must See That Machinery of
Production Is Worthy-inefficient
Equipment Is Costly.

Your fruit trees and bushes, your
crops, your animals are the machines
of your farm mandatory. Are they
efficient? Do they return to you the
biggeat profit on the raw material and
labor spent on them? You must see
that your machinery of production is
worthy Of your time and labor. Low
quality, non-guaranteed trees may look
cheap, but they take as much room,
time and work as the fine kinds,
says American Fruit Growec.
Scrub cows eat the same amount
Of food and take as much attention,
but they don't give the milk and but
ter as do the fine breeds. 1t is bad
business to work with inefficient
equipment.
Other manufacturers often scrap
hundreds o. thousands of dollars of
good machines to install others
that give better results for the
same effort. You can save money by
scrapping your lowgrade stuff. Get

SCRUB STOCK IS EXPENSIVE
Demand for Purebred Animals Un.
prccedented-Sire 10 Sometimes
More Than Half Of Herd.

The unprecedented demand for pure
suit in the marketing Of many animals
eligible to registry, which are inferior
as individuals and which may prove
poor breeders. S. Il. Simpson of the
Missouri College of Agriculture re-
minds buyers hat the present high
investing in only good breeding ami
mails even though they appear high in
price. In ..is way only a the pres
emit high standard be maintained and
the scrub purebred finally eliminated.
The use Of the registered scrub can
but discourage the cause of purebred
sires and better live stock. The breed
err who markets such individuals will
ultimately suffer the criticism Of those
who know good live stock, and finally
be Disseminated against in buying and
selling. The purchaser Of the scrub
purebred can breed nothing but infe-
rior individuals so long as he per-
sict, IN h~v'-~ - pc1'g"cc with no
regard for individual Eierit.
The purebred sire is the best means
Of live stock Improvement. Whether
good or bad he Is half the herd and
sometimes more. For this reason
the selection of the sire demands
equally as much attention as the en-
tire group Of females, and it Is far
more important to have a good sire,
both in individuality and breeding,
than TO have one or two good females.
If sacrifices must be made, let them
occur in the selection Of the females.
Better still, let every one be a good
one, both In breeding and individual
excellence.

Millions Spent on Music.

If expenditure of money is any test,
America can certainly claim the credit
OF being Il musical country. Accord
ing to an estimate compiled some time
ago BY an expert, the United States
spends no less than f120,000,0OO on
music every year. This Is three times
as much IS The same country spends
on its army and navy: while musical
Germany" it is pointed out, spends ten
times as much on its army and navy

In the American total, church music
accounts for f10,O00.O00 a year. The

many purposes, sewing room, nursery,
den or reading room.
That part of the first-floor plan made
up of porch, vestibule, toilet and bed
oom does not continue beyond the
first floor.
However, the overall size Of this
house, Al by 30 feet. provided ample
space for four bedrooms and bath.
To the adherent Of the wonderful
benefits of outdoor sleeping the
screened porch on the second floor
would prove an irresistible attraction.
Under such circumstances the small
front bedroom would be used as a
dressing room.
Stucco houses OF this general type
are unusually attractive and have long
been in vogue. The architectural de-
sign and interior arrangement should
merit the approval of the most exact
ing. A home built to correspond to
these plans should prove satisfactory
