CULTIVATION AIDS POTATOES
Stirring Surface Of Soil Soon After
Planting, Gives Them Good
Start.
BY c. w. WAlD,
Potato Specialist, M. A. c.

East Lansing, Mich.-In the light of
what It has cost this season to put
in potatoes, the grower will scarcely
find 1t profitable to omit any of the
steps necessary for the production of
q maximum crop.
The cultivator should be started as
soon as the potatoes are up enough to
show the rows plainly. 1t is assumed
Of course, that the narrowing has been
done previously. The first time the
cultivator is employed 1t should be run
close to the rows and deeply. This is
necessary to loosen up the soil and put
IL in a condition for the soil bacteria
to work to best advantage. A small
amount of dirt should be thrown
around the plants to cover and kill any
small weeds which may not have been
destroyed by the harrow.
After the first time over, the cult
vator should be run more shallow to
avoid breaking Off small rootlets. The
frequency of these later civilizations
will depend upon the nature OF the
soil, the persistency of weed growth,
and the amount of rainfall.
At least three things should be ac-
complished by cultivation. The weeds
should be kept from growing, the soil
moisture from evaporating, and the
surface of the soil well loesened TO
facilitate aeration. The plantfood will
be liberated more freely and plant
growth stimulated to a greater degree
II the surface Of the soil is kept open
and porous than will be the case II II
Is allowed to become firm and baked.
Cultivation should be kept mp as
long as II is possible to get between
the rows without injuring the plants.
After the first two or three cultiva-
tons only the surface Of the soil
should be stirred. Much harm is fire.

weather is dry and hot, by deep cult

How Animals Feed.

The squirrel carries its food In It's
mouth by means of its paws. while the
elephant uses its trunk. The giraffe.
anteater and toad employ their
tongues, but spiders masticate their
food with horny jaws.
The caterpillar is provided with saw
edged jaws, and uses them so well that
every day he consumes at least three
times his own weight in food. Toads,
turtles and tortoises do not possess
teeth.
Frogs have only an upper row of
teeth, and Holsters and crabs have a set
of teeth In their stomachs. The tiger
and lion do not grind their food; as
a matter of fact. their teeth only work
with an up-and-down movement, much
like chopping knives.-Minneapolis

SHEEP WORRIED BY WORMS
Flocks Should Be Closely Watched
During July and August.
BY PROF. GEORGE A. BROWN.
Beef Husbandry Department, Michigan
Agricultural College.

Beef Husbandry Department, Michigan
Agricultural College.
East Lansing, Mich. - Sheepmen,
with an eye to the well-being of their
flocks, will probably find the stomach
worm at his usual harmful work again
this season. This parasite is especial
ly active In July and August.
At the first appearance of trouble
the flock should be kept Off feed and
water for from Is to "a hours and then
given from two to three tablespoonfuls
OF gasoline in about four ounces or
skim milk. In drenching, the sheep
should be backed into a corner, It's
head slightly elevated, and the drench
administered slowly from a small
necked bottle. After the first treat
ment the flock may be allowed TO Craze
for two hours when they should again
be confined and the treatment repeated
the following day, and the same meth
cd followed the third day.
After the third drenching the flock
should be turned onto a pasture that
has not been grazed by sheep this sea-
son.
II II is not possible to change pas
lures at this time, the lambs should be
weaned as soon as meadow or seed
ing is available for them, and the
treatment repeated before turning
them onto the new pasture. A fire.
quent change Of pasture is one of the
best preventative measures that can
be adopted.
Infection in the lambs takes place
through the fact that some Of the
parasites live through the winter In
the digestive tract of the mature sheep.
These parasites in the ewes are con-
tinually laying eggs which pass out
with the droppings and in from four
days to two weeks depending on
weather conditions) hatch out and go
into q cystic stage on the grass, thus
finding their way into the lambs. A
frequent change of pasture is therefore
one of the most effective preventive
measures. If the flocks can be given
a change Of pasture every two weeks
in May and June, the lambs weaned,
drenched as described above and turn
ed onto clean pastures early in July,
very little trouble will be experienced,
although the flock should be carefully
watched throughout the summer as
little extra effort may mean the saving
of many lambs and added weight and
value to the entire flock.

OVER SEVEN MILLION BOTTLES
SOLD AND DISTRIBUTED
IN LESS THAN TWO
YEARS TIME.
SUCCESS PHENOMENAL
Fame Of the Medicine Spreads Over
Whole Nation-Now Sold From
Coast to Coast.

NJ EVER before, perhaps, In all his
~ tory has the demand for a pro-
prietary medicine ever approached the
wonderful record that is now being
made by Tanlac, the celebrated medi-
cine which has been accomplishing
such remarkable results in all parts
OF the country.
From Coast to Coast and from the
Gulf to the Great Lakes, Tanlac is
known and honored. Millions have
taken II and have pronounced 1t the
greatest medicine ever given to the
people, and the only explanation Of
Tanlac's triumph in the medical world
laos triumph In the drug stores is
Tanlac's triumph in the homes. 1t is
the peoples medicine and the people
themselves have made Tanlac what
Ii is.
No matter where you go, Tanlac is
a household word and 1t is unques-
tionably the most widely talked-of
medicine in the world today. One per-
son invariably tells another about a
medicine that helps him and in this
way scores or even hundreds may hear
Of Tanlac as a direct result Of one
bottle In single home.
The first bottle Of Tanlac to reach
the public was sold just a little over
two years ago in the thriving little
city of Lexington, KY, where 10000
bottles of the medicine were sold In
only a few months. Since that time
there have been sold throughout the
United States something over seven
and a quarter million bottles, and a
romance which has no parallel in the
modern business world has begun.
The instant and phenomenal success
which Tanlac won in Lexington has
been duplicated in practically every
large town, small town, village and
hamlet in North America, while Ha-
wall, Alaska, Cuba, Porto Rico and
other American possessions have clam
ored for Tanlac.
Just few months ago, 1t was an
nounced In the Atlanta papers that
twenty-five carloads, 265.476 bottles Of
LahLuS uuu DScA SOlu through the Az
lanta Office alone. Since that time,
1,406, 448 bottles have been sold, and
the grand total now stands at over q
million and half, or to be exact,
1895, 204 bottles.
These are actual figures, and the
fact that one hundred and fifty-eight
carloads of Tanlac have been sold and
shipped into the South and West since
the first day of October, 1915, is a
matter of record and can easily be
verified.
One retail firm alone, the Jacobs
Pharmacy Co., of Atlanta, have sold
the astonishing total Of $4,000 bottles
within the past twelve months. What
is true Of Atlanta, is also true Of prac-
tically every large city of the South
and West, where the sales have been
correspondingly large.

try have voluntarily come forward and

A New Zealand cousin in Europe
with the forces vouches for the truth
of the following story:
Dick Seldom was Of Lancashire orr
gin and when he died the Lancastrian
society Of New Zealand sent a wreath
with the following inscription: II have
gon whoam." The journalist who re-
ported the funeral evidently did not
come from Lancashire, and conse-
quently was somewhat puzzled by the
wording and, after thinking hard, con-
cluded that someone had blundered.
His report read:

another crop which can be followed

fer excellent opportunity for securing
alfalfa at little expense.
Second-Lime the land for alfalfa.
Apply two tons of ground limestone or
several cubic yards of mari before
seeding. This crop requires more lime
than any other crop grown In the
state. The soils OF Michigan are so
widely deficient in calcium carbonate
that In nearly all cases fields should
be lined in preparation for alfalfa.
Thlrd-Inoculate properly. Unless
alfalfa or sweet clover has been grown
previously on the land, incubation
with the proper bacteria is necessary.
Cultures can be secured on application

Client for bushel Of seed. The soil
method is also reliable. Spread sever
al hundred pounds per acre Of best
surface soil from a successful alfalfa
or sweet clover patch over the ground
to be seeded. Apply on cloudy day or
In evening and follow with harrow.
Fourth-Prepare the seeded thor
oughly. Alfalfa should be seeded on
land free Of grass. June grass is its
great enemy In Michigan. Follow
after cultivated crop. Plow land five
or six weeks before seeding, firming
with roller and working thoroughly at
frequent intervals. 1t should be kept
In mind that alfalfa is to remain on
the land for from four to six years.
A much more thorough preparation is
warranted than In the case of crops
which are to occupy land for a single
season.
Fifth-Plant at proper time. The
best results are secured with seedlings
made about mid-July on land which
has been plowed early and worked
thoroughly so as to control grass and
weeds. No nurse or companion crop
should be seeded except on sandy soils
or soils which are inclined to wash,
In which case peck or so Of buck
wheat will be beneficial. Early spring
seedlings should be made with a COM
panion crop of oats or barley seeded
at the rate of one bushel per acre.

These and perhaps more extrava-
CANT claims have been made for alfal-
ia since II was first introduced into
Michigan, but while some men in their
zeal have perhaps given 1t credit for
a whole lot more than any crop will
ever be capable of, 1t is nevertheless
true that today, more than ever, al
falfa is something 1t will pay every
farmer to investigate.
The man who establishes a good
stand OF alfalfa can expect IL to do
these things for him: Alfalfa will fur
nish large yields of valuable hay; his
stock will thrive on II as on no other
hay crop; more stock can be kept on
the farm; his expense account for cost
ly concentrated feeds will be cut down,
since alfalfa and corn can be fed so
as to furnish an almost balanced ra-
ton. Alfalfa will benefit the soil, in
creasing the organic matter and nitro
gen content and enable IL to yield
greater crops Of corn and potatoes, on
being broken.
But the successful growers of alfal-
ia must understand and do these
things:
First-Select fields for alfalfa which
are well drained and which can be put
In proper condition. Alfalfa should
not be planted after sod, but should
follow cultivated crops such as pota-
toes, corn or beans, which leave the
land fairly clean.

fore mid-July, alfalfa can be seeded
under excellent conditions. Peas are
