MILLET AS A HAY
OR SEED CROP

Millet that is intended for hay
should be sown at the rate of two
pecks per acre, while for a seed crop
one peck is usually recommended.
The rate of seeding varies somewhat
with the fertility of the soil. Heavi-
err seedlings should be made on more
fertile soils. Under most favorable
conditions a crop of millet may be cut
for hay in 40 to so days after seeding.
Toward the end of the season 60 to
80 days must be allowed. According
to the Department of Farm Crops of
the University of Missouri College Of
Agriculture, the crop will require 10
days to two weeks longer to mature
seed than to reach the hay stage. The
crop is commonly cut for seed before
the seed are dead ripe, because later
cutting will result in serious loss from
SCATTERING. ....g-.-
The legal weight of millet seed in
Missouri is so pounds to the bushel,
but seed of different varieties may
vary from 40 to so pounds.

at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. J. r.
Moore, of st. Clair, Mo-, when their
daughter, Miss Ada Ellen, was mar
ried to Mr.. George Burette Snider, a
we'll known and prominent business
man in the banking circles Of this
State. At present he is with the St
Francois County Bank at Farming
ton, Mo. Mr.. Snider is a graduate of
Missouri University, while Miss Ada
was educated at Bucknell University
at Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. She has
held important positions as teacher
of domestic science, the last three
years having taught in Caruthers-
Vile, Mo. Miss Ada was popular in
her home town as we'll as elsewhere

COWPEAS IMPROVE WORN LAND

The crop which best combines
quickness and economy in improve
ment of thin uplands is cowpeaS The
crop may be sown at any time in June
or July, and should be turned under
in the fall. The peas may be pas
tured after the vines begin to die.
Very little value of the crop would be
lost to the land if it is pastured af-
ter the vines begin to die, according
to the Department of Farm Crops of
the University of Missouri College of
Agriculture, for the manure dropped
by the animals will largely compen-
safe for the vegetable matter that
they remove in grazing. If the most
rapid improvement of such thin land
is. desired, the cowpeas should be
followed by rye in the fall. This rye
will provide little grazing in the
fall. 1t should be turned under in the
spring in time to plant either soy
beans or another crop of cowpeas,
either of which may be followed by
wheat. By that time the fertility of
the land will probably be considera-
bly, improved.

ORDER WHEAT FER
TILIZERS EARLY

The demand for fertilizers to be
used on wheat during the coming fall
is going to be greater than the sup
ply. There will undoubtedly be trans
portation difficulties similar to those
of last fall and last spring. Those
farmers wishing fertilizers should de-
termine their needs at once and get
their local dealers to place their or
ders. Where orders are placed
through farmers organizations, it is
highly necessary to make arrange
ments as soon as possible in order to
be sure of delivery in time for seed
ing. The great value of fertilizers on
the wheat crop is being realized by
the farmers who have average to thin
land. The high price of wheat IS well
as the great need of this crop for
war purposes warrant the use of ev-
cry bit of fertilizer that can be Sc
cured in Missouri this year, accord
ing to M. f. Miller of the University
of Missouri College of Agriculture.

TO AVOID STINKING SMUT

Sinking smut is one of the most
common and serious diseases of wheat
and oats. 1t becomes evident in the
spring after the wheat has headed,
and practically destroys the wheat
When the crop is seriously affected
by the disease, the yield of wheat is
considerably reduced.
1t is spread by the seed, and con-
sequently farmers who find the di-
sease in their wheat this year should
be very cautious in using seed for
next years crop from affected fields
Such seed may be safely used only
when treated with the formalin solu-
ton, which destroys the smut. The
Department of Farm Crops of the
University of Missouri College Of
Agriculture recommends that the
seed be treated just previous to seed.

UNPRECEDENTED HIGH
PRICES FOR LEAD

At the beginning of 1917 the price
of lead in New York was little over
rs cents per pound, but it soon began
to rise, reaching 1915 cents early in
March. The price declined to 9.25
censt early in April, but this decline
was followed by rise that reached
1925 cents in the middle of June. A
sharp decline then set in, and although
there was partial recovery late In
July and early in August, the price
went down to SIS cents in November.
From this point the price gradually
rose and at the close of the year lead
was selling in New York for about 7
cents pound.
The official price of lead at London
remained fixed at 80 pounds los a
long ton (6.4 cents per pound).

CRIB CORN GAVE POOR STAND

In one section of Saline county
farmers planted crib corn which had
not been tested. R. j. Howatt, county
agent, visited those farmers recently
and found that less than half a stand
was obtained from this corn. The
crops were replanted with tested seed
which was purchased at So bushel.
If the farmers had tested their seed in
the first place they would have had
earlier corn, and might not have had
to pay so much for their seed.

TOO MUCH LIKE KAISER BILL
Ex.Sheriff of New York Town Has
Made /: Plain That "Potsdam
Points" Don't Go.

Ex-Sheriff James Merritt, whose
mustache grows as sheriffs mustache
should, has established q muStache
censorship and outlawed the Potsdam
points, according to Port Chester cor
respondent of the New York Tribune.
Until a few days ago scarcely an
hour went by that the argus-eyed for
mer sheriff patrolling the streets did
not find at least one sky-pointing mus
tache of the kind made notorious by
Wild Bill HohenZollern. The tactics
of the former sheriff upon spotting
such a one were as tactful and as un-
varying as those of collecting agency.
Placing himself in front of the wear
er, he would fix pale and unappreci-
ative eye upon the offending mustache
and stare and stare. Either the staree
wilted or became curious or belliger-
ent. Former Sheriff Merritt was ready
for either result.
At the first evidence Of embarrass-
ment he would nod mutely toward the
nearest barber shop, follow his victim
until he entered and remained on post
outside until he emerged without his
mustache. If the mustached one in
quired civilly what was wrong, the
former sheriff would start as if awak-
ened from a daze and explain that he
thought he was confronting his old
friend, Pewter Cup Bill" the yachts
man. If the recipient of his stare
wanted to know what was biting the
former sheriff, Merritt went just as far
with the inquisitive one as was neces-
sary to persuade him into a neat coat
Of lather.
