FARMERS. SAVE YOUR WHEAT

Several thousand bushels OF wheat
is wasted and damaged each year
in Madison County alone, on account
of some farmers not stacking and
protecting it after the crop is made.
On account Of the shortage and
high cost Of burlap. you may not
be able TO get wheat bags the day
you want them. so by all means
stack or house your wheat. This
is more dollars TO you as il is also
your patriotic duty.

gagged in railroad construction and
operation in France.

ed in construction work, building
and rebuilding railways, building
docks and rearranging terminal
facilities. The other three regiments
have been engaged in operation. and

been on the fighting line. The adj
ditional troops will be used partly

Next to the aggregate number Of
subscribers. perhaps the most strik-
ing feature Of the third Liberty loan
was the support given il by the
farming and rural populations OF
the country, according 10 state
ment by the Treasury Department.
Not only did the farmers purchase
literally OF the bonds, but the rural
communities as rule were more
prompt in completing their quotas
OF the loan than the larger cities.
More than 10000 communities in the
United States subscribed or over
subscribed their quotas. many OF
them in the first day OF the cam
palgn' The majority Of these were
not cities, but country districts.

DAIRYMEN NEED NOT BE
 DISCOURAGED

For the moment, real estate agents inform US, the demand is for grain farms, rather than for dairy farms, al though, of course, every grain farm should be a dairy farm. and vice versa Experience has shown that the dairy man who is also general farmer has the best prospects for success.
 In some sections dairying has not been highly profitable during recent months But we advise our readers who have cows and dairy equipment tc keep on doing business at the old stand.
 War conditions have offered dis proportionate rewards to the grain farmer, some dairymen think. It hNa been harder, in fact, to increase thu price Of milk and butter than to in crease the price of corn. The situa- ton, however, is bound to equalize it. self in the end. and the man who keeps cows will not always be at a disadvantage.
 The dairyman should plan for as much grain as he can grow without disorganizing his farm operations. He should produce silage and alfalfa whenever possible, and buy sparingly of high priced concentrates. But the herd should be kept up. and the equip ment. We never knew of a dairyman starving to death.-Farm Life.

The proper cultivation of corn is essential for a good yield. Too many of us are careless and neglectful when it came to cultivation, and when the yield is poor as the result of i'm proper cultivation we lay the blame to the seed. ~ the soil, to the weather to anything but ourselves. Early in the season we often fail to cultivate as frequently as we should and allow the weeds to get a start, or the mois- tuire in the soil to evaporate too rap idly. Later in the season we at tempt to make up for our previous neglect by cultivating deeply. This results in the blows cutting off the roots of the corn and stopping iAs growth and development.
 Important Things to Remember.
 The two important things to re- member are:
 Early cultivation of corn should be level and frequent
 Early cultivation may be deep; later cultivation should always be shallow.
 Frequent cultivation early in the season is important. Many of us think that after corn is planted it needs no cultivation for two weeks, or until it Is out of the ground and has attained good growth
 But when the ground is not culti- vated for two weeks or more after the corn is planted 1t often becomes foul with weeds, which take up the mois- ture and plant food. It also makes fl difficult to work the corn, for the ground. packed by the rain and baked
