SHED TO STORE THE MANURE
Loss by Leaching When Exposed in Winter Amounts to Considerable
 Sum-keep 1t Covered.

Chemical analysis made during five years at the Ohio experiment station show that barnyard manure loses about one-half it's potassium, one-third it's nitrogen and one-fcurth it's phosphorus when exposed to the weather for three winter months.
 At prices prevailing before the Eu- ropean war the fertility constituents In a ton of manure would be worth about $2. The loss by teaching three months would then amount to about 80 cents. At the present cost of potash the loss would be nearly $2 from this material alone. A shed to store the manure should pay for itself this win ter.

Ear-Siuhted Lad.

Raymond, six-year-old pride of an Irvington family, strenuously objected few nights ago, when his mother asked him to go on an errand to the corner grocery.
 After considerable questioning, the lad explained that he wouldn't mind going if he didn't have to by a lumber yard, which is situated between the grocery and his home.
 "Why, you're not afraid of those stacks of lumber, are you?" queried his mother.
 Its not the stacks, mamma, it's what's behind 'em," answered Ray mond.-Indianapoli News.

PREPARING SOIL FOR WHEAT
Quite as Much Depends on PreIinni. nary Work for Best Development
 as on Use of Fertilizer.

Quite as much depends upon the proper preparation of the soil for the best development of plants as the use of fertilizers. A case in point is that of an intelligent Missouri farmer who lived in a section where the idea pre- vailed that wheat could not be profit ably grown there. He had tried to raise wheat on his farm, in the old rough way, and could get but ten or twelve bushels per acre. He visited the state experiment station at time when plot of ground was being pre- pared for wheat and became so i'm pressed with thei- thorough methods of soil preparation that he prepared a field on his farm in the same way, and from. this harvested crop of 30 bushels of good wheat per acre, the only fertilizer used being stable ma nure.

today as a result of the association s

Dor difficulties that had arisen at
Kirksville, Mo.
No plans for mediation or confer
ences between the owners and repre-
sentatives of the miners have been
made, the commissioner said. He add
ed that some action along those lines
might come later today. Many opera
tors and miners were said to be here
today. Operators estimate that be-
TWEEN 5000 and 5000 men were made
idle by the suspension. About fifty
mines were affected it was said, thru
