HOW
To Cultivate the Back Yard
With Success

TINE gardener should never permit
the surface of the soil to become
baked or even to form an appre-
ciable crust Constant stirring with
hand tools or a wheel cultivatOr Should
be practiced between the rows ana
about the plants.
Such stirring permits the air to
penetrate the soil, where it facilitates
chemical action and bacterial activity,
destroys weeds which otherwise would
utilize large amounts of plant food
and, finally, cOnserves the moisture
supply.
The rake is perhaps the gardener'7
most valuable tool In cultivating. This
can be passed backward and forward
over the ground until it is in an open,
mellow condition. Where vegetables
grow closely in the rows it often will
be necessary to supplement the cult
walton by hand wedding. Small imple-
ments are made for this purpose and
may be purchased cheaply 1t Is well
also in some cases to pull up weeds by
hand, especially where they grow close
~ about the stalks Of the garden
plants.
Just as the gardener should be care
full in early spring not to dig the
ground when the soil Is too moist. so
he should be careful later In the sea-
son not to cultivate too soon after
rains. The stirring Of very muddy
soil puddleS it into IA compact, cement
like mass in which the plant food is
securely locked.
The garden will require attention.
however. as soon as the excess mois-
ture from rain has soaked in or part
ly evapOrated. Unless the ground is
stirred at this time Il crust vii! form
almost inevitably. Such Il crust, be-
sides restricting the plants prevents
the access of air and also facilitates
the loss OF moisture through evapOra-
ton.
When during prolonged dry spells
the plants give evidence of suffering
because Of the lack Of moisture wa
ter must. II possible. be supplied arti-
ticially. Where supply Of piped wa
ter Is at hand perhaps the most usua!
method Of irrigation is by sprinkling
with hose. If sprinkling is practiced
it should be done late in the afternoon.
1t Is not sufficient merely to dampen
the surface; Il thorough wetting should
be given.
A more satisfactory and more eco
nOmical method Of irrigation. however,
is to open small burrows between the
rows Of growing plants and to supply
water in these bitches from hose or
pipe. Several hours after the water
has soaked in the dry earth should be
drawn back into place.

EYE STRUCTURE.
Why We See Better In q Moderate
LIGHT.

Why We See Better In a Moderate
Light.
An Observant chauffeur passing an
automobile with glaring headlights
noted that objects at the side Of the
road which had been distinctly visible
dropped out Of sight when the bright
lights were thrown upon them. Since
one can see better In Il little light than
in no light he wondered why one can
not see better in bright light than in
moderate light.
The answer Is, paradOxically, that the
less light there Is the better one sees.
for the brighter the object the less effi-
cient Is the eyesight II after we have
been in darkness we suddenly turn on
a bright light and look at our eyes In
the mirror We can see the pupil Of the
eye rapidly growing smaller IL we
reduce the light the pupil dilates again.
What happens Is the same as In the
camera when we adjust the shutter to
the intensity OF the light.
The cOlOred iris Of the eve CORE
spends to the shutter. 1t consists
chiefly OF muscle which as the light
increases is stimulated to contract.
thus dra wing the curtain and shutting
out some Of the supertiuOus light. 1t
usually takes a few seconds for this
adjustment to take place. Thus when
We emerge from darkness into light We
are blinded until the iris can shut out
some Of the light from the eyes.

we'll drained clay loans and to lime
stone areas. On sandy soils it Is pro-
ductive when well supplied with hui
mus. In general it will not thrive on
i'll drained land or on sour or acid soils.
The customary way Of seeding red clo-
YER is to SOW 1t in the spring ON win
ter grain. which acts as nurse crop.
This is cheap and convenient meth.
oil, but it is often unsuccessful on soils
which are low in humus content. In
that case the surface of the ground Is
likely to dry out quickly after the
grain has been removed. and as re-
suit the clover perishes.
1t is best to SOW the clover seed in
winter grain very early in spring. The
small seed disk drill is coming into ia
vor for this purpose and should be
used as soon as it is dry enough to
keep the machine from clogging.
Another method Of treating red clio
yer is to SOW it in the late summer or
early fall on a thoroughly prepared
seed bed. This, however, is not prac-
ticable in the more northern portion Of
the clover belt. A seed bed should be
finely pulverized. thoroughly compact
and comparatively free from obnOx-
ious weeds. The seeding should be at
the rate Of ten to twelve pounds per
acre of clover alone or Of six to eight
pounds when seeded with timothy. On
heavy soils the seed should not be
placed over one-half inch deep and on
light soils not over one inch.
Red clover makes a splendid pasture,
but there is danger that cattle and
sheep which are turned upon it in early
spring or following heavy dews may
bloat. The practice Of including good
part Of timothy or blue grass in red
clover pastures practically eliminates
this danger. When intended for hay
red clover should be cut as soon a. 1t
is In full bloom. When the stalks have
thoroughly wilted and before the
leaves have become dry and brittle the
hay should be raked into windows for
curing. These should be put into
cocks, which win turn water to some
extent, and left there until sufficiently
cured for hauling. Exposure to bad
weather darkens the hay to consider
able depth in the stacks and seriously
reduces it's feeding value For this rea-
son it also pays to store clover hay
under cover. The hay itself is rich in
protein, palatable and OF high feeding
value.

Best Soil For Beans.

For beans the soil should be rich and
mellow. To get them tender at pick
ing time they should have quick and
continuous growth. and this is best as
sured when they are planted in a
warm rich, porous soil. we'll drained
and given plenty of water. Well rotted
manure. dug into the trench. is best
when applied at this time Of year, and
the soil should be made fine with the
shovel when digging and finished with
the rake. Beans are planted in two
general ways-in hills and in burrows
or drills Cleaner cultivation can be
given by the hill system. but more can
be grown in the same space Of garden
by the drill plan.

POSTURE OF WOMEN.

NCood or Bad Health.

Miss Jessie Il. Merrick, director of
physical education for women in the
University Of Washington, insists that
every wOman's home OF office be la
boratory Of health. She points out that
there was time when woman's house
hold duties were so varied that all her
muscles were brought into play. Work
has become so highly specialized, how
ever, and woman has taken her place so
actively in the business world with
man that she is deprived Of the OppOr-
tunity to live a rational life in which
she would exercise every part Of the
body in accordance with its natural
functions.
Good posture is to be thought about.
1t depends upon the maintenance Of nat
ural conditions Of life. Some health
specialists attribute all abnOrmalities
Of health to bad posture. Depressed

HEFUN CHALLENGES BUREAU REPORT ON COTTON CONSUMED Says Figures Issued April IA Are Incorrect and Will
 Ask an Investigation
 at Once

Washington, April n.-tSpecial)-Rep resentative Heflin of Alabama challenges the government report on cotton and will ask for investigation. He gave out the following statement today:
 "The last census report shows that dur ing the month of March, 1917, the cotton spindles in the United States consumed 602, 900 bales, 11,524 bales less than they consumed during the month of March, 1916. The figures in the same report show that the cotton spindles of the United States for the eight months ending March 3l, 1917, consumed upon the average 35,00 bales more per month than for the same period in 1916. This report also shows that there were 100000 more active cot ton spindles ifr the United States during the month of March in 1917, than during the same month in 1916, consumed more cotton than 33. GOO spindles consumed in March, 1917. Of course, everybody knows that thls is not true. There is something wrong and l am going to have an investi- gation made. I propose to see that these reports speak the truth. I challenge the correctness of the report published April 14 not only as to the amount of cotton consumed in the United States during the month of March of this year but as to the amount of cotton on hand in con suming and storage establishments in the United States on March 31, 1917.
