Mr.. Crisp's Views.

Although, as did a majority of the
representatives from Georgia, Con-
gresham Crisp voted against the con-
scription law he is standing squarely
behind the administration in prepar-
ing for and carrying on war. He feels
assured of victory in the end, but it
will be long and expensive conflict
in which every man and woman must
do their full duty.
Mr.. Crisp believes that at no dis
tant day congress will pass a national
prohibition law, and the legal sale of
intoXicants put under the ban in the
United States. He said that universal
suffrage is growing, but that he did
not expect to see the ballot given to
the women by a national law in the
near future

Favor Development of Reservation

Ii is encouraging to note that the
Indians of the Standing Rock re-
servation are commencing to take
an interest in the settlement and
development OF the surplus, UNI
used lands by white settlers. In
this issue will be found a commun-
ication from Ignatius Ironroad, one
Of the progressive Indians Of the
Standing Rock Tribe. Due credit
should be given him for having the
courage of his convictions to the ex-
tent OF critizins the policy or the
Indian Department.
The manner in which the Indian
Department in Washington has
handled the land sales on this res.
ervation since the first sale under
the new rules and regulations was
held May 5, 1915, is disgusting
The blame all rests with the Com.
missioner in Washington and his
Department heads, and not with the
Superintendent located at Fort
Yates i'm charge OF the sales.
When Mr.. Convey, former super
intendcnt, advertised the May 191i
sale, Ip submitted copy of the ad.
vrrlisemcnt to the Indian Office in
Washington for approval, and moi
until several weeks after the sale
was held did the Department come
to the conclusion that the deferred

PORTLAND. oct. 25.--It was a
very weak start given the swine trade
at North Portland during the day
Another liberal supply came forward
in the local market. All of the big

were not willing to let go then at that
price.
In the face of the weakening tone
in the local trade there was q firmer

safely till the shaking is over, and
then returned to the frames. The
drones may safely be fed to chickens,
as they have no stings.
A simpler, less troublesome method
is to use trap such as shown here
with. The lower part Is open freely
at its rear to the entrance of the hive.
The front Incorrectly DRAWN con-
sists Of parallel Stats or wires be-
tween which the worker bees can pass
freely. The drones cannot so escape,
but make their way upward through
cones Of wire cloth into the upper
part Of the trap. The cones are open
at their apices, which reach nearly to
the top of the trap. Very few drones
have sense enough to find their way
back into the hive. Any workers that
chance to get into the trap can easily
escape. 1t is not likely the queen will
get in the trap unless at swarming
time.
The best time to use the trap is be-
tween nine and four o'clock in warm,
sunny weather when the drones feel
like flying. Unless 1t is desired to
carry the drones to some other yard,
the upper part of the trap need not be
used. The cones will be sufficient, as
the drones will huddle outside the hive
until removed for chicken feed or for
destruction.-Orange Judd Farmer.

MILK SUBSTITUTE FOR CALF
Many Experiment Stations Glad to
Furnish Farmer With Formula
Care at WEAVING Time.

The calf raising season is now here,
and with the present high prices Of
milk and veal, and the increasing
value Of both dairy and beef cattle,
we cannot impress upon our readers
too pointedly the advantages of using
a milk substitute in raising their
calves.
There are some excellent milk SUBJ
stitutes on the market and If a farmer
wishes to make one himself, there are
many of the experiment stations that
will be glad to furnish him with vari-
GUS formulas for so doing.
1t has been proved time and time
again that while the results secured
from milk substitutes are not as cas-
lily obtained as those produced by
milk ration, If proper care is taken
after weaving time, the final develop
ment Of the heifer raised upon the
best milk substitutes will be almost
equal to the milk-fed individual

Age OF THE CONCORD GRAPE
Oldest Vine In Existence is Less Than
Seventy Years oId-catawba Is
Fifty Years Older.

Some things seem to have icteo
from the beginning of time, simply be-
cause we have always been accus-
toned to seeing them. One of these is
the Concord grape. This grape is prob
ably more largely grown in America
than any other variety, though its pre-
dominance is Of comparatively recent
date. The oldest Concord grape vine
in existence is much younger than
many persons now living. 1t Is, in
fact, less than seventy years old. The
catawba grape is nearly fifty years
older, but 1t never attained to the Con-
cords popularity. The grape, how
ever, is not an isolated case. When
we begin to inquire into the history
of almost any of>our varieties Of fruit,
we find that all are Of comparatively
recent origin. The varieties In cult
walton one hundred years ago were
seldom up to the standards we hold at
present. Probably the fruits Of an
other generation will in their turn ex-
eel those which we regard SO highly

MUCH WASTE IN GARDENING
Necessity May Force Americans to
Adopt Economical FertIlizina
Methods Used by BeIqians.

Shortage in the supply of fertilizer
is situation Of great gravity that con-
fronts the amateur gardener whose pa
triotic spirit is impelling him to till
city lots and suburban plots. City sta
bles, which formerly supplied fertili-
ger to farms in the neighboring states,
have been turned into garages, with
the result that manures can be OBJ
tanned only in small quantities, If at
all. To obtain the results to which
their labors and their enthusiasm en-
title them the back lot and suburban
gardeners must husband their re-
sources, abandon the wasteful Ameri-
can method of enriching the soil and
turn to the system that gave Belgium
pre-eminence In intensive farming, &C.
cording to the New York Herald.
The American method of placing fer
tilizer is to spread 1t entirely over a
plot or field. The Belgian method is
to place the fertilizer only under the
spot where the plant is to grow, vast
ing none Of the valuable plantfood be-
tween rows or between plants. The
European gardener turns over the
earth, harrows or rakes 1t and then
digs q trench or series of holes about
eight inches deep where he desires
to plant row Of corn, peas or beans
Into this trench he spreads the ferti-
hzer, covers the latter with an inch
of earth and on top of this places the
seed, covering all with a deeper layer
of earth. When the seed terminates
the roots quickly reach the fertilizer
and the plant grows with great rapid
ity. Thus all the fertilizer is utilized
and none is wasted between the rows
where none is needed.
Intensive farming was forced on Bel
GUM through necessity. Necessity of
the world is urging America to inten.
sive methods, and the cardinal prin-
ciple of the system is the elimination
of waste.

FIGURES ON SEED CORN COST
II 81 Was Paid Per Acre It Would Buy
the Very Best Kind That Can
Be Obtained Anywhere.

Five dollars is good big price for
seed corn, so big that the most of us
will not pay it. But come to figure it
down to acres it does not sound so
large. Counting one bushel will plant
seven acres, the cost is only Y cents.
Seed oats cost at least 90 cents a
bushel any season after. they have
been cleaned. Counting two and one
half bushels per acre, it costs SIPS to
seed one acre. There Is no possible
way of getting out of oats seeding for
less than 81 per acre, even If bin oats
are seeded without cleaning. If 81
was paid out for seed corn per acre, it
would buy the very best kind that can
be obtained.
