INCREASING The
PRODUCTIVITY
OF THE SOIL

The roots of farm crops feed ~
soil that has been pluwed. Hence
deeper the plowius the larger the
feeding area. Tie greater advant-
age of deep plow,ng is that it en-
ables the soil to hold more water.
The productive power of soil is de-
ternined very largely by ability OF
soil to hold water.
On heavy land one should plow
ten to IL inches deep. However
this depth should be reached grad.
ually by increasing the depth o1
blowing one inch each year till thu
maximum depth is reached. Deel
plowing requires large plows ant
heavy horses. Deep plowing viii

THRIFT STAMP
S0CI7Y DOES Coon
WORK in sylvia

On February 1st Mrs. E. L. Me-
Zee organized the gills of SYLVIA
into Thrift Stamp Society with
Miss Lura Sullivan as president and
Miss Ashceaft as secretary.
1t would be hard to find a more
enthusiastic band of WORKERS and
many were surprised to learn ON
Monday night that up to that time
these girls had sold more than S13-
w worth of Thrift and War Stamps
the most of this amount having
been sold in only two afternoons.
they have gone about their work
in a systematic manner, the town
having been divided into sections
and two girls appointed to canvas
each section weekly.
To show the spirit of the Girls it
might be added that each of them
has pledged herself to buy a certain
number of stamps each week or
month during the year.

cilizer bill and help to prevent
erosion.
Deep plowing requires large plows
and three good horses weighing
from 1900 to 14O0 pounds each. |
Too often one finds light plow teams
turning the sell 3 to five inches.
The former type of plow and team
not only does better work. but more
work in a day. This is an exceed
inely important point to consider
under our present circumstances,
when labor is so scarce. Because of
the evolution of this principle
namely: More horse power, less man
power, America las been enabled
to produce a grearter number OF
crop acres per man than any coun-
try on the face o. the globe.
There is all old adage that pulver-
ling the soil is &c quivalent to fertil-
izing it. This is true because the
roots of plants can use only that
plant food which is in solution, thet
| is what plant food has been disolv-
ed by water and the sap of the
plants in question. Obviously the
finer the soil is pulverized the more
surface there is ex posed to the dis
solving power of water. Conse-
uuently the finer tle soil is pulver-
! lied the more feecing surface there
| is for roots. The plant food in Jumps
and clods is of lite value to plants
because it is inaccessible to water
Hence it is easy to see why fertill-
l izer spread upon clods fails to be

voice but at times when he is re,
lating some of the cruelty of the
huns he raises his voice to 8
high pitch, as tho' gh he was cry.
This man has mad, experiences
that but few have had being wound
ed nine times, five times in his
left leg and foot. The last wound
that he sustained was when his
shoulder and arm were blown to
pieces and his leg broken. and was
buried alive in this condition when
The was rescued by some Red Cross
workers.
He told his audience OF some ol
the cruelty that he saw at the
hands of the Huns in Northern
France, he said that he had seer
little children with their hands Gu
> off and old men laying all along tn
road side, whole towns wiped ou
. and all of the savage work OF thu

Discussing enlargement Of the

zier said:
"A pronounced majority OF the
boards favor some enlargement,
but there is great diversity Of .opin-
ion as to the poper age limit
Nineteen and 35 are perhaps the
limits most frequently suggested
but some recommend 40 or As years
as the upper limit There is {
distinctly stronger demand ,fol
raising the NAHUM age than 10
lowering the minimum"
Gen. Crozier estimates that | .3o9

be made available by an increas'
in the age limit 20 include men VI
to As years. The estimate place
the number of acceptable sinel
men between 1e and 81 years a
