ALFALFA TIPS

Many growers of alfalfa used to figure
on marketing their entire output in the
form of hay, but the passing years have
proved the folly of this plan, for the
rains would come and catch the grower
with lot of hay in the swath. Cut al
faith that has been rained will sell
dem make No. 1 hay. Today, on many
big hay farms, the owner is feeding a
large portion of his lower grade hay to
beef or dairy stock, and is realizing
more money from the cheaper hay he
feeds than from the choice or No. !
grades that he ships to market.
The seed crop is another item in al
falfa growing that is receiving more at
tention here in Oklahoma than formerly,
when most growers were raising hay
for market only. At that time the
sdered almost a total loss Threshed
hay, as a rule will not bring enough
to pay marketing expenses. When saw
Ing seed crop the grower is certain to
lose two cuttings of hay, but with seed
at prevailing prices, and bunch Of
young stock to eat the threshed hay,
seed crop is surely a mortgage litter.
One cannot produce and market ton
of alfalfa hay for less than 81 and real
ize profit. Experience proves to me
that the actual cash outlay necessary
in marketing ton of hay from our
fields, under favorable conditions, is s..
This accounts for labor only; interest
and taxes are not considered, and we

THE FARM WOMAN'S ABILITY

for our boys. The work is thoroughly ex-
planned by the general society, SO that
any woman who can cut and sew plain
garments for her own family can do this
work.
Every country community should have
its Red Cross society, with some of it's
members belonging to the county or town
society, SO that they can keep in touch
with the work being done elsewhere. If
there is a country women's club, its meet
ings should be given over to the work
of the society, and if there is not al
ready an organization of some kind for
the women of the community, it is time
that one was instituted. Instead of cro-
chetting, or spending the time studying
art and literature, spend it in discussing
ways and means of furthering the work
of the country in the crisis which now
confronts us. BY dividing the society into
four circles, there could be a meeting,
and work accomplished, every week, with
out burdening a few with the whole re-

BY ADA CARROLL WORKMAN

In these strenuous times, everyone who
can do anything at all must learn to use
every energy in the conservation of sup
plies already in hand, and the production
of further and greater supply. To the
women of the farms this comes with add
ed force, for theirs is pre-eminently a
task of production and conservation.
There were never SO many gardens, nor
such great plans for the preservation of
food by canning, drying and storing than
now, and the average farm woman feels
that when she has utilized all the prod
ucts of her field and garden, and filled
her own shelves with the fruits of her
labor, she has done her bit.
But there are other duties incumbent
upon the woman of the farm, and we have
just started new work here, that of
the Red Cross society Heretofore, that
work has fallen to the share Of the wom-
an of the town, but it is high time that
the women of the farms realized that it
is as much their duty to carry on this
work as it is the duty of the town women.
We have a number of farm women on
the executive board of our newly organ
lied Red Cross society, and they are del
egated to do all in their power to inspire
their country neighbors with a desire and
purpose to aid in the work. Some of
these farm women represent clubs Of
farm women, others are just publc-spir-
tied women who desire to aid the great
work. In every circle of the society there
should be at least one farm woman, so
that the progress and needs of the work
should be always before the farm people
We find it easier to handle the work
by dividing the membership into circles,
each circle having as it's chairman mem
Der of the executive board Each circle
has a different day to work and in this
way, the work is going on more steadily
than it would if the entire society tried
to work at one time. We took the band
age work for our first attempt, as it is
simpler than the other work, but as soon
as we have it mastered, we shall pro-
coed to the making of the comfort kits

SAVE GRAIN SEED

The south will be expected to take
care of it's share Of wheat and oat pro-
duction. Encouragement from the vim
ter kill of the last season and labor
conditions make the task of keeping up
production no small one, but the coun-
try needs more of these crops if it is to
take care of its allies. The prices which
they are bringing, of course do not dis
courage production.
Even if the acreage cannot be increased
the prices which the small grains are
bringing justify the very best seed bed
preparation and the maximum use of fer
tilzer.
Growing cereals, of course, do not re-
quire as much labor as growing corn
and cotton, it is true, but corn and cot
ton will take their turn in every well
planted farm.
The scant oat crop should be husband
I'd for seed this year. No oats are as
good for planting in the south as those
grown in the south, especially if they
to be planted The same is true of
wheat unless in given section the best
variety for that section has not yet
been used.
Good seed should be ordered early. I'm
less fertilizers are ordered early, SO that
dealers can ship only in full carload
lots it is quite probable that farmers
will be disappointed when seeding time
comes. The railroads will probably have
more than they can do even with full
carload shipments. 1t is a national ne
cessity to see that no freight car space
is wasted.

DOG BARKS

Give a boy dog and they've both got
a chum.
A man who is loved by his dogs is usu-
ally pretty good man to know.
Bird dogs, as rule, are more friendly
than any other breed toward strangers
To see a pretty girl walking with a
bulldog brings grief to the heart of the
masher.
The greyhound is the swiftest of all
dogs but works only by sight. The mo-
ment he loses sight of the OBJ ject in front
of him, he is helpless. But when he starts
a hare he seldom loses sight of it.

A PLAIN DUTY
BY G. S. BARRETT

We are all members of the Farmers
Educational and Cooperative Union
of America Every word in that title
means a volume. The final word union
means that we are combined for edu-
cational and cooperative effort along
lines which will be profitable to us
farmers
The purpose of this letter is to bring
before you the fact that unless We
give the very best that is in us to
our cooperative efforts we will tail
ultim stely of that measure of success
which is necessary if we are to hold
our own with the other great interests
of our country.
We have a large number of cooper
atitve associations scattered over the
country and some of them are doing
well. while all of them ought to pc
doing much better than they are.
Don't misunderstood me, for che
splendid work that has been done and
is being done is creditable both to our
intelligence and our loyalty, but after
/ have said that | am forced also 70
say that We are not doing half that
we ought to do. Your loyalty to your
own interest is at stake, whenever you
fail to give these institutions, which
are your own. a whole hearted support.
You will remember that the scriptures
say of the man who fails to look out
for his own, that he is worse than an
infidel. Whether you believe that
strong statement or not it is true that
none of us has any exalted opinion of
the man who refuses to look after his
own
Not once. but thousands of times l
heard it thrown at the farmers that
they will not stand together. If this Is
to remain indefinitely true, it pres
ages for the farmers perpetual sub
jugation to other interests, for it is
absolutely certain that a house d.
vided against itself cannot stand. L
wish l had at command language so
strong that / could impress you with
the necessity Of giving your united
support to your own institutions. I'm
fortunately. the resources of the Eng
lish language do not permit express
sion strong enough to cover the ne
cessities of this case. This. however
will say, that every dollars worth of
business you do with our cooperative
associations is like a new nail driven
in the frame of the building when ii
is being erected. and every dollars
worth of business which you withhold
from these associations is like taking
brick from the foundation which up
holds the building.
Do not think because the volume
of your individual transactions may be
small, that it des not matter. The
Scotch rank among the most thrifty
people of the world and they have d
saying which is most worthy of your
consideration. to this effect: Many a
mickle makes muckle." If our hun
dreds of thousands of members could
take to heart this old Scotch saying by
putting their little bits into our bust
ness enterprises they would in few
years have an organization paying
them dividends on their investm en- Is
of time and money larger than they
have ever dreamed.

BE CANNY

Home canning is kitchen patriotism.
Some neighbor surely can eat or put up
surplus products from your place.
Everybody can! Put your spare time
into cans and jars.

you can FILL lend them to a neighbor
who will make them work for the ma
