CITY BOYS ON FARMS.

There has been some sneering at
city boys on the farms. We are as
sured that they are of no use to
practical farmers. But the farm
.ers who have tried out such boys
40 not make such reports. OF one
hundred boys that went out in one
county last year the reports are that
only five proved at all unsatisfac-
tory, and 50 of them did good work
and won the esteem of the farmers
and their families, many of them
ito such an extent that the farmers
and their wives hated to see the
boys leave the premises. These are
the reported experiences of farmers
who actually tried out such city
boys.
The truth is that the average city
boy is not such hopeless PROPOSE
ton as he is pictured by some folks
The average city boy is a bright,
alert and healthy fellow, one who
likes to work-and many city boys
work just as hard as country boys
do. When they get out on the farms
such boys are ambitious to show the
rest of the world what they can dc
and how we'll they can do it. We
remember many years ago when a
certain farmer had lot of hay to
put up, hundreds Of acres Of it, He
hired lot of men to do it. He had
professional hired men" of the
farmers, and he got into his fold a
lot Of boys who held nigh school
diplomas. They naturally split up
into factions in the hay field. And
it is literally true that the boys with
the diplomas outmaneuvered the
hired professionals they put up
more hay-and had more fun while
doing it-and the practical farm OPP
orator had to admit it. We know
that this is a true story, for we
were there in the midst of those
contending factions. And that is
the kind of a chap the city boy is
apt to be and ii he isn't that kind
Of a fellow then he is a worthless
member OF society, whether in the
city or on the farm. An American
boy who is not bright enough and
willing enough to learn to do the
summer work on farm is a hope
less boy and he might almost as
well quit living, says the Cedar
Rapids Republican.

Tell Kaiser to Take His Goods and
Go to H


At a patriotic meeting under the
auspices of the Maryland League
for National Defense at Baltimore,
Senator Kenyon of Iowa, delivered
an arraignment of the kaiser.
"The kaiser has no more chance
of winning the war than a cellu-
loid cat has Of catching an asbestor
rat in hell" said Senator Kenyon.
He quoted Billy Sundays famous APP
horism that if hell were turned up
side down made in Germany
would be found stamped on the bot
tom.
He urged the people not TO pur-
chase goods made in Germany and
said that he was positive that no
true American would buy gooas
manufactured by murderers and Un-
der the direction of ruler who
had ordered defenseless women and
children murdered.
Let the Germans take their
goods and go to hell with them, y
he cried.
Don't do your Bit" he said, "dc
your damnedest."

FROM COUNTY AGENT.
Furnished from the COun-
ty Agents Office in DEBORAH.
Seed Corn.

The County Agent is planning to
hold meetings throughout the vari-
GUS localities in the county during
the next two weeks for the purpose
Of demonstrating methods of single
ear testing seed corn. There is a
great deal Of interest in evidence
throughout the county because of
the poor seed corn found every
where. Seed corn is of very low
termination this spring but fortu-
nately large percentage of the ears
selected for seed from cribs are
found to be testing strong. This
corn is the best corn from which =
select the seed this year. Six years
results on Iowa Demonstration
Farms proved that home grown corn
is far superior to imported corn. On
an average of very large number
yield of from nine to twelve bushels
per acre was secured by home grown
seed. Let no one repeat the mis-
takes made in this county two years
ago and which is so often repeated
everywhere of buying corn from
southern ATTITUDES which will not
even set ears, let alone mature.
Cover Badly Winter-Killed.
Many farmers in the county are
| facing serious proposition on ac-
count of the winter-killing Of the
medium red clover. On many farms
soy beans will do splendidly in sup
plying the legume forage in substi-
tuition for the killed clover.
There is a great deal of interest
in the growing of soy beans in the
county. Why would it not be an
opportune time to try some soy
beans this spring? They can be sown
broadcast or in drills or planted in
rows and cultivated. On the aver
age soil the better varieties Of soy
beans will produce from two to four
tons of cured hay which has feed
ing value superior to red clover.
Soy beans will yield from 20 to SO
bushels of beans on good soil and
have approximately the same feeding
value as cotton seed or linseed meal.
They are also a very good food t0i
human consumption.
Soy bean seed must be ordered at
once to get it on hand in time for
planting which Immediately follows
corn planting. The County Agent
has some Soy Bean Growers Lists
on file for your use.
In some instances oats and peas
will do very nicely for hay as a
substitute for the clover that was
winter-killed. By all means plan
something in the way of a legume
feed to take the place of the clover
which will be sadly missed on many
farms in Winneshiek County this
year.
Soy Bean Experiments.
The Experiment Station announces
three types of soy bean experiments
which are available for farmers de-
string them. Sufficient seed will be
furnished for planting about one
acre for forage for seed or mixe1
with corn for hogging down or sal
age purposes. Call at the County
Agents office to talk this over and
make a try on very valuable farm
feed this year Many farmers in
this county have already signed up
for these experiments.

Hot, insipid water from watering
trough or pool in summer time is not
good water. Ice cold water is not
good water. Every farmer knows
that it chills the cows and reduces
the flow of milk. Water stored in
tanks is stale and not fit for animals
to drink.
The only really good water is
water that comes ''Direct frsm the

Among the Oldest life forms on the
globe is the shellfish, known as the
lingula, a specimen of which was ta-
ken from Manila bay several years
ago. Phe genus, according to scien-
lists, has remained practically unal-
tered, for more than hundred million
years. With the extraordinary changes
OF climate and environment since the
world began most forms of life with
which science is familiar have been
transformed or have altogether disap-
peared since the geologic ages. THAT
the genus lingula," says the Journal Of
Heredity, Should have survived for all
these ages, and undergone virtually no
change, Is striking evidence Of the fact
that the germ plasm, which under some
