ARGUMENT FOR PRODUCING MORE MANURE

horses and cows buy commercial fer
tilizer to value of 500 and at the
same time throw into the country
drainage the same thing of the same
value? Better keep what you have
and learn to apply it, then when you
have learned to use that thing, begin
to think of buying more.
Manure Argument.
This Is not alone an argument for
conserving manure but 1t Is also an
argument for producing more manure.
The manure produced by single COW
upon the PalOuse farm is actually
worth 81 or $S per year, value that
is high enough to turn "board-
er" into a producer" If we take
this product into consideration. Not
arguing to get boarders but to
get cattle upon the farm, get the best
yod can, but get cattle. Hogs or sheep
will do as well. The requirements are
that they be the best you can get
and that they will produce manure.
Market your farm products on foot
rather than in the sack or bale and
keep the fertility in the land.

CANADA'S BONUS
TO FARM LABORERS
Offering 160 Acres to Farm
Hands.

Canada today, with the great de-
mand that is made upon it for food.
stuffs, finds itself almost in the throes
of labor famine. A novel means Of
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when it was de-
cided to practically bonus every farm
nand going to Canada, by giving him
l6O acres free as homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered, to count as
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been big pro-
ducer of grain and it is estimated that
there Is shortage of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av.
erage crop in 1917. This shortage has
been caused by so many young men
having left the farms to go to war. and
1t is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind. to fill their places
on the land at once.
1t has been required in the past to
do three years duties on homesteads
to get title, but an additional induce
ment has been offered by practically
reducing this term to two years. AS
explained by an official Of the Canadi-
an Government, Canada's need for
farm laborers is intense, and excep-
tional inducements are being offered
to get the needed farm workers at
once. A farmland will make his en-.
try for one of the 160-acre farms. sat

ply as residence on the land filed for,

Feminlsm is the first attempt since
the days of chivalry to think clearly
and talk straight on this woman busi-
ness, to call things by names that shall
square with the facts and not with the
appearance of the facts. 1t is woman
suffrage with the bark off, for while
woman suffrage wants us to change
our ways of doing toward women,
femininism demands that we change
our ways of thinking about women.
Feminism is the crust on the loaf of
mans daily bread, and the loafer who
knows on which side his bread is but
tered will eat crust with crumb. 1t is

STEAM DEVICE FOR CLEANING MILK CANS

A young farmer boy devised this
rather novel steam device for clean
ing milk cans and other dairy uten-
sils. The device, which is simple
form of steam boiler, was first con-
structed to operate small One-fourth
horse power steam engine, which 1t
did until he installed small steel
boiler, at which time the wooden boil
er was installed in the dairy house
and used for cleaning milk cans, etc.
The boiler, as shown at A, is 16-
gallon beer keg, with return water
pipe inserted in the lower end, as
shown at B. This pipe b is allowed
to enter the firebox of an old cook
stove, by which it is heated.
A drain cock is placed ut 1 and n
safety valve is placed at G. This is
simply a cone-shaped piece Of wood,
neatly fitted in the top and weighted
with the rod as shown.

MINERALS FOR cows
DURING THE WINTER
Ohio Expert Advises Dairymen to
Feed More Calcium, Magne-
SUM and Phosphorus.

Dairy cows fed the usual winter ra-
tons cannot produce large milk yields
without loss of minerals from their
skeletons, says DR.. Il. b. Forbes of the
Ohio experiment station, basing his
statement upon recent Investigations
of the department of nutrition. From
his results he advises dairymen TO give
the hiSh-prOducing COW feeds rich in
minerals, especially calcium, magnesi-
um and phosphorus. A gradual shrink
age in milk yield or failure so breed
may be due to mineral depletion, he
continues.
In his experiments different rations
varying in mineral content were fed to
heavy-milklng HOlsteins. More calcium
magnesium and PHOSPHORUS were CIV
en- off in the milk and excreta than
were present in the feed, although the
cows maintained their live weight dur
ing the experiment and stored sulphur
and nitrogen.
Doctor Forbes says that the COW
must draw upon her bones to supply
this deficiency, because her capacity
to produce milk is much greater than
her ability to digest minerals.

VALUE OF OUTDOOR LIFE
Only Those Familiar With Freedom Of
Woods and Fields Enjoy Corn
plete Happiness.

Too many people are merely on
speaking terms with nature. Too many
are unfamiliar with the wonderful adj
vantage of outdoor. Too many cherish
heated comforts. They forget that
their ancestors did not know what a
steam-heated house meant. 1t Is time
to broaden our views and to get closer
In touch with the great healthtgiving
life of the open air.
There died not long ago q natural
ist, John Muir, who had lived the bet
ter part of his life with nature. He
loved the mountains and the natural
life of all outdoors. His existence
was happy one. He died amid the
surroundings of peace, happily, with
a coltented heart.
1t is only those who know the free
dom of the woods and the health-giv-
ing tonic of the open air who really
enjoy complete happiness.
1t is related that sickly mother,
not great many months ago, carried
sickly baby to Doctor Evans, who
looked the boy over and smilingly ad-
vised the worried parent to turn her
boy loose in the parks, "let him live in
the open air." he advised, ut is the
only medicine that will do him any
good"
This same advice can be applied to-
day to thousands of cases. On incle-
ment days it is unwise to expose one
self. But when the sun shines and the
air is keen and crisp, is filled with the
germs of life, one is extremely foolish
not to take advantage Of it,.
If parents would only see that their
youngsters are warmly clothed, that
their shoes are sound and that their
little legs are well protected, and then
turn them out Of doors and tell them
to stay there, they would find their
doctors bills growing less and the
health of their children growing bet
ter. They will also see glow of
rosy health in the young cheeks which
is certain indication of expanding
youth, of glowing blood, of the creation
Of good health.-Memphis Commercial

FEEDING OATS AND
PEAS TO DAIRY cow
For Early Green Feed and Sum-
mer Hay of Good Quality Sow
One or More Acres.

For early green feed for cows in
milk, and for n good quality of hay
for summer and early fall feed, SOW
one or more acres with field peas and
oats. Select deep, rich, mellow land,
spread about IL twO-hOrse loads of
rOtted manure per acre on top of the
plowed ground, and sow six pecks of
field peas to the acre and harrow the
field both ways. This will put the
peas in at their proper depth. Then
per acre. If ground is dry, roll after
drilling.
Field peas do best on well prepared
rich land. SOwn the first part of
April, the crop will be fit to cut and
feed to cows the first week in June.
This combination makes a splendid
feed. No grain need to be given where
this oat and pea forage is fed. 1t
should be cut and allowed to wilt a
few hours before feeding. Feed Il
small quantity at first and only when
free from rain or heavy dew. The
quantity may be increased gradually.
If too much is fed Mt first it is liable
to produce hoven. The Canada white
field pea is hardy and prolific vari-
ETY.. 1t will average 30 bushels of
cured peas and two to three tons Of
cured hay to the acre. o.. v.
The field pea is hardy and does best
when sown early in spring when the
ground is cool and moist. The Vir-
ginla cOwpea cannot be sown until
the ground is warm and dry.
