To Stimulate Aviation.

In order to stimulate an increased
interest in aviation among the 'ollege

1000 to 10000 students each. The BOO
medals thus offered win be open to
competition on the part of $4,000 stu.

REMARKABL CLIMBING ROSES

If anyone who had not seen them, un-
dertook TO tell the story of the rose
beauties OF Portland, Ore, the average
man would never believe the stories MS

stories do not do full justice to the
wonderful rose belt Of the Pacific coast.
The picture shows climbing Caroline

QUANTITY OF SEED TO PLANT
In Soil, Size Of Kernel and Con-
dltion Of Seed.

The quantity of spring wheat seed
sown varies with the amount of
moisture present in the soil, the size

condition of the seedbed, and the date
Of seeding. Under ordinary condl-
lions, four pecks to the acre IS best
In the eastern part of the area, where
rainfall is high and the soil heavy
rich, warm, and well drained, five to
six pecks give better results. In the
drier soils of the western portions,
three pccks to the acre are sufficient.
Where durum wheat is sown, as rule
the seeding is one peck heavier than
common wheat under the same condl-
tons.

The alfalfa can be threshed either
from the cock, or shock If ii is cut with
n binder, or 1t can be stacked and
thresheG from the stack. If the seed
crop remains unstacked there is, of
course, danger from storms. 1t Is not
an uncommon thing in September for
heavy winds to interfere with securing
the seed crop in good condition. In
Stances are not uncommon of high
winds blowing the small cocks of al
falfa for comparatively long distances
and wasting much of the seed. If the
alfalfa Is stacked, then of course this
difficulty does not appear. If the al
falfa is stacked 1t will have TO remain
stacked two or three weeks In order to
have it thoroughly seasoned, as it is
necessary that the material be quite
dry at time of threshing.
AS presumably most of the seed al
falfa in North Dakota will be of the
Grimm variety, which commands a
comparatively high price, 1t would
seem to be the part of wisdom to stack
the seed alfalfa before threshing; for

at is to the farmers interest to keep

from an esthetic and business stand
point If one farmer neglects this I'm

"a farm cluttered up with useless,
worn-out implements or rubbish left
from repairing fences and buildings,
will spoil the appearance Of an other
wise attractive home.
''If the farm and premises are put
into good shape in the fall, there is
usually less for the farmer to do in
the spring. The machinery should be
put away in good repair, so that it will
be ready for use when needed. Things
that are not needed during the winter
can be packed away in a convenient
place"

STACK SEED ALFALFA BEFORE THREsHlNG

if one does not do this too much risk

money lost are too great.
An alfalfa huller is, OF course, the
best machine to obtain the seed from
the alfalfa, but this machine is scarce
in this state. The writer has secured
very good results in threshing out seed
alfalfa by means of an ordinary
thresher. Instances are common
where no change at all has been made
in the machine and it was certain that
comparatively little seed was lost. The
writer has taken the precaution to put

of a good tanning mill. Generally
speaking, it is not necessary to run
the alfalfa straw through the machine
a second time provided that the ma
chine is properly adjusted and run

FURNISH PROTEIN TO
POULTRY IN WINTER
Something Must Be Supplied to
Take Place of Bugs, Insects,
Grasshoppers, Etc.
(By p. G. HOLDEN, Former Dean o
Iowa State College)

(By 2. G. HOLDEN. Former Dean OF
Iowa State College,
Fifteen per cent of an egg is FRO
tein. Protein is the food that makes
muscle. The lean part of ham and
bacon is protein.
Hens get protein when they eat
angle worms, bugs, insects, grass
hoppers, etc.
To get eggs in the winter we must
give the hens something to take the
place of the worms and bugs.
When your father butchers a pig
or n COW do you give the offals to the
chickens?
Perhaps you can kill rabbit or a
squirrel for them. Skin it ard hang
it in the poultry-house just high
enough that the hens will have to
jump little to reach it. Exercise is
good for laying hers.
Or, perhaps you have some milk or
buttermilk you can spare for the hens.
Milk contains great deal of protein.
Let 1t sour before feeding it, as
sour milk keeps the hens healthy.
Ground bone or beef scraps are
made from the waste and offaIs in the
packing-houses. Some people buy
these.

FEED STOCK WELL ALL YEAR
Animal Well Wintered Is Half-Sum-
mered and One Well Summered Is
Half-Wintered.

There is an old adage that If every
feeder would keep 1t in mind and act
on 1t. not only with his sheep, but with
all his live stock, he would do much
better than the average feeder; and
that adage is simply this: IAN animal
well summered is half-wintered, and an
animal well wintcred Is half-sum-
merel," which means that the year
through you should keep your animals
in nice, smooth, plump condition.
