A practical rotation can be be-
gun by cropping one-fourth of the
tillable area in the spring to soy
beans, which may be harvested for
hay. Subsequently the bean stub
BILE can be narrowed and prepared
for a crop of winter rye. The
clover should be sown on the rye
land during the late winter or
early spring, so that the field may
remain in clover for two years. At
the end of this period it should be
broken and cropped to corn and
then the rotation should be repeat
ed. Managed in this way the aver
age farm can carry two to three
cows, five to six young cattle, and
a sow with five or six pigs. Several
sheep may also be kept, as we'll as
a team of horses. Small patches of
alfalfa or sweet clover may also
be grown whenever possible for
hog pasture.

Agriculture has Promising Future

From the remuneration stand
point, the future of American ag-
riculture was never brighter. The
rewards for intelligent farming
were never more promising. For
many years to come agriculture
will afford a satisfactory living to
the farmer who is willing to make
work team of his brains and his
hands. The experience of the past
two years has shown us that a
higher type of farming is needed.
The emergency has resulted in
many improved methods of crop
production and there is still room
for great improvement.
Youth is ever progressive and
keen to adapt new methods. Our
army abroad contains thousands
of young men who have been called
over night from following the plow
to following the machine gun.
hese men have had chance to
observe European methods of
farming and on their return to
their rural homes they will be
quick to put into practice many of
the good points of agriculture
wich they have observed in use in
England, France. Belgium and
even in Germany.
Many young men who have al
ways lived and worked in cities
will have acquired love for the
open country and they will be loath
to return to the fettered air of the
, cities. Many of these men will
turn their thoughts and physical
efforts toward agriculture. Most
of them will be untitled for their
task. Physically they may be in
perfect condition for the hard
work on the farm, but mentally
they will be miSftS for the task
they seek. Yet this great mass OF
excellent material should not be
allowed to eXpend its energies
futi!ty. These men should be fitteC
for their task. Plans are already
Newark post., 1918-12-11
under way to provide these men
with lands.
Khaki College Should be
Established

Should the government establish
a man upon a soldiers farm and
yet fail to prepare him for his task
of wringing a competency from
the soil? Should not some means
be provided whereby these men
may gain an insight into nature
and natures methods before being
thrust upon their OWN" We
have III this country a great or
ganization for teaching agricul-
ture in all its phases. An organiza-
tion that no other country has to

the Agricultural Colleges. At least
one in every state Of the Union.
Shall they not be utilized in an en-
deavor to at least smooth the way
for those of our returning soldiers
who have but little knowledge of
agriculture? Should they not point
our better and up-to-date methods
to those who have had previous
Iarm experience
Are these colleges living up to
their opportunities if they do not
establish short courses" in Agri-
culture for the benefit of the re,
turning soldier? Should not the
would-be farmer soldier be offered
and given government aid in fit
ting him to earn a living from
these lands which they are offer.

agricultural education should be
founded upon a we'll outlined plar
and not upon hasty laid schemes

How Three Boys
Weakened Father

One of the outstanding results
of boys agricultural club work in
Tennessee has been it's effect upon
the parents of the members. Three
sons of a Madison County farmer
ioined the corn club last year. One
son produced 144 bushels on his
acre, another 139 bushels, and the
third 120 bushels, the profitj from
the 3 acres being S464.64. This
demonstration wakened the father
to the opportunities at his very
door. He has pulled out of the rut,
adopted progressive ideas, and has
become a olive wire" and a re-
cognized leader in his neighbor-
hood.

KHAKI COLLEGES NEEDED
IN AMERICA
C. A. McCUE MAKES TIMELY SUGGESTIONS FOR
AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION

c. A. McCue, Professor of Horti-
culture, addressed the students
and Faculty of Delaware College
on Agriculture Reconstruction.
Professor McCue is known as the
Peach Man owing to his great
success in raising peaches, but he
has stimulated every phase of
horticulture through this region.
He is President of the American
Society of horticultural Science.
He combines happily the scientific
and practical grasp of his subject.
His address was IN part as fol-
lows:
The late worlds struggle in
which we have been engaged has
been quite largely won thru the
ability of the American farmer to
rise to the emergency and increase
his output of food StutfS. The story
of how the American farmer re-
Sponded to his country's call for
food will, when the all is told, from
glorious chapter in our nations
history. The war has demonstrate
ed beyond all peradventure that
agriculture is the firm foundation
upon which rests all activities of
the human race. The oldest of
callings, it has been least organ
the least appreciated. However,
the farmer has now come to his
own and reached his proper station
among his fellow workers.
Now that the war is over there
must be no relaxation in food pro-
duction. The greater portion of
Europe is thoroughly disorganized
and it will be some time before the
countries in that unhappy con-
tinent can hope to fully provide
their own food StufS. Europe is
short of cattle. hogs, and other
sources of meat. She is short on
wool, cotton, leather and of many
staple articles of diet. This short
age must be supplied and largely
from this country. The American
farmer must still keep up his war
time activities along lines Of food
production.
Anarchy and starvation go hand
in hand. The best cure for Boil
sheviSm is a full stomach. The
normal civic status of Europe can
not be fully restored until a salts

Resting Land Unneces-

The common practice of letting
the land lie idle for few years to
rest" after it has produced crop
Of corn is not necessary. Under the
usual system OF farming in
the hill country even the rich
coveS on mountain sides are
seriously depleted in fertility after
three or four years. Rotation of
crops keeps up fertility as we'll if
not better than letting it "reSt"
and grow up to weeds. At the same
time this practice brings a farmer
more money, since it keeps the
