frequently as important as the conser-
walton Of moisture. Luckily both heat
and moisture may be conserved by
good timely cultivation. Heat is
wasted in evaporation or wasting soil
moisture. Making the surface loose
and dry saves both soil heat and soil
moisture.
C~ultivating after heavy rains is a
good farming practice. To be most
effective the cultivation should be
done as soon as the surface is dry
enough to work well. If the soil is
allowed to dry until it breaks up clod-
dy, much moisture will be lost, and
harm is more likely to be done to the
corn roots. AS long as rapid evapora-
ton is taking place the surface will
remain cold and the growth of corn
will be slow. In order to cover large
areas quickly cultivators which work
two or more rows are a great advant-
age.
n number of civilizations neces-
sary and the best time for them de-
pend upon weather and soil conditions.
Weeds should not be allowed to grow,
and a mellow surface should be main
tanned. In some seasons this may be
effectually accomplished with one or
two civilizations; in other seasons
from four to six civilizations may be
necessary.
Nothing can be gained by c%ontinu-
ing cultivation in cornfields free from
weeds and in which the soil surface
IS mellow. When the surface is suffi-
GENTLY loose and dry to reduce evap-
Grafton, is open enough to prevent
runoff, and no weeds are starting. a
cultivation could do no good and if
carelessly performed would do injury
to the corn.
Corn should be cultivated only
when n or more objects will be ac-
complished by the cultivation and
when the total effects will be more
beneficial than injurious. The bene-
fetal effects of cultivation are:
~ Preventing weeds from rob-
bling corn of soil moisture and fer
tility.
(2) Putting the surface in condi-
ton to take rainfall, thus preventing
runoff and erosion, which means loss
es of water and soil fertility.
81 Warming the soil by drying it's
surface quickly.
az Saving moisture by checking it's
capillary rise to the soil surface.
Some injurious effects of cultivation
are:
~ Breaking the corn roots which
otherwise would use some of the
moisture of light showers before it
evaporates; and
(2) Forming large clods and air
spaces thus permitting air to enter
and dry the soil.

TO ORGANIZE AND TO
MOBILIZE FARM HELP

To the Office of Farm MANAGEMENT
Of the U. S. Department of Agriculs
ture has been assigned the work of
organizing and mobilizing the labor
forces of the country. They have de-
signated Professor E. L. Currier of
the Montana Experiment station to
represent them in matters related to
the working out of their plans in this
state and this designation has been
approved by Chancellor Elliott as rep
r~esenting the State Council of De-
tense. According to the plan which
will be put in operation at an early
date, a mar will be named in each
county Tin most cases the county agri-
cultural agent will act), who will keep
informed on labor conditions in that
county. He in turn will designate a
man IN each community who will have
charge of the labor situation so far as
the local community is concerned.
IN general, the working out of the
plan will be as follows: The commu-
nifty representative will make a thor
ough canvas of each farm in his COM
munity, he will then strike a balance
between the SURPRISES and deficits of
farm help and will report the net sur
plus or deficit to the county agent
having this work in charge. The
county agent will in like manner make
such adjustments as he can between
communities and report the net sur

ALUMINIUM FOR WAR PURPOSE
Germany and Austria Use More Light
Weight Metal Than All other
Nations Now in Conflict.

1t is stated that Germany and Aus
tria use more aluminium for war pur-
poses than all the other belligerents
combined. 1t is known, in fact, that
Germany has for some years been col
lecting and storing the metal for war
uses, and the majority of the drinking
mugs, cans and cups of the German
soldiers are made of the light metal.
The frames for zeppelins and the fuses
for shells are also made from alumni
mum.
One Of the difficulties the Germans
have had to face is the shortage of
copper necessary for the rings round
shells. Many of the German shells are
now provided with aluminium rings.
Although aluminium has come to be
regarded as a substitute, even in cart
ridges as well as shells and fuses, 1t
does not answer its purpose nearly as
well as copper. The French authori-
ties experimental with it some years
ago for artillery purposes. but rejected
1t, says London Tit-Bits. The Germans
are using it in large quantities, how
ever, on account of the shortage of
copper.

GERMANY FIGHTING TO SAVE
FRUITS OF HER ONE GREAT
OFFENSIVE OF YEAR.
Stupendous Tank Drive OF General
Byng Has Wrecked the Plan Of the
Teuton High Command to
Rest in the West.

London.-"Bingo-Byn as the Tom
mics call him, now Is slipping ahead.
Less than two and half miles now
separates his army from Cambria.
The big British guns have begun the
bombardment of Cambria itself. That
town is a surging sea of Teuton re-
serves, coming to save the day for the
Teutons defeated.
Germans Are Desperate.
In the shell-raked, tank-swept rags
of the Hindenburg line, Germany is
fighting to save the fruits of her one
great offensive of the year on which
she had staked all. From every part
of the western front Hidnenburg is
drawing every available handful of re-
Inducements to restore the line that
bore his name, the line that was to hold
until Russia and Italy are disposed
Of"
While Hindenburg was in the act of
"disposing of Italy" following his sud-
den smash on the Isonzo, "Bingo-
Byng" and his tanks came along and
out-surprised the Hindenburg surprise
and now the Teutons are between this
devil" in the west and the unfinished
Italian job in Venetia. To draw re-
serves from the Piave or Trentino
fronts would spell doom to the enter
prise there, already threatened by the
ever-stiffening Italian resistance. 1t
is a question of leaving the west front
to take care or itself.
German Troops Summoned.

payne, from the Aisne, from Flanders,
Hindenburg is drawing troops, troops
and more troops. perilously thinning
his fronts in those sectors, in any of
which Petain or Haig may strike a
blow at any hour.
That stupendous tank drive of Gen.
eral Byng's and Its logged continual
ton have wrecked the fond plan of the
Teuton high command to rest in the
west this winter and when spring came
| to throw the huge Austro-German
forces from Italy and Russia against
the h-British-American armies.
There will be no rest this winter,
Is the message which Byng's men and
guns are delivering every hour of the
day and night. 1t looks more and more
as If the Armageddon is to be fought

North sea and the Vosges.
