Washington, D. C., July 15, 1918.- The United States Civil Service Con- mission announces that it is now in a position to state definitely to the pub- lie that steps will be taken at once to relieve the congested living conditions in Washington, which have been an obstacle in the way of recruiting the ccivil service to meet war needs.

 It is expected that the first units will be ready for occupancy early in September. Accommodations will be provided as they are needed.

In the meantime, the Room Registration Office, which is conducted by the Dis trct of Columbia Council of Defense under the auspices of the Council of National Defense, is able to provide rooming and boarding accommodation for the new appointees.

 Those who arrive on late trains may find accommodations for the night by applying at the booth of the District Council of Defense, which is promin- ently situated in the Union Station. where all trains arrive.

SHOULD HAVE LESPEDEzA ON
EVERY FARM.

Lespedeza, or Japanese clover, is a
plant which grows wild over most OF
pasture, and, in some places, for it's
pacture, and, in some places, for it's
hay 1t makes it's growth during the
summer time and dies with the first
frost coming again the next year, not
from the root but from seed which
drop in the fall. Although it is ordi-
narily found growing wild along the
roadsides and in waste places, yet
seed can be obtained and it can be
planted as any other farm crop and
thus get a crop when 1t is desired.
Lespedsza should be found on every Ar.
kansas farm for hay or pasture, or
both, says A. D. McNair with the
bureau of Farm Management co-ope-
rating with the Extension Division or
the University of Arkansas.
Time to Plant. Lespedeza should
be sowed in late winter or early
spring, say the latter part of February
or early in March and If intended for
hay, crop may be sowed on top Of
oats or wheat land where it will ger.
inmate and grow without further at.
tention. 1t is low growing plant and
yet it grows so thick that it often
makes large yields of hay. Where
the stand is thick the yield is usually
estimated to be one ton per acre for
each six inches in height; hence Les
pedeza which is but little taller than
a shot top will frequently make fair
yield of hay 1t may be sowed for
pasture on any kind Of land, but for
hay it is most successful on creek
bottom lands, post oak fats. or on the
silt loan soils adjacent to Crowley's
Ridge and Bayou Mason Ridge. It
does better on the stiff silly soils than
on any sandy soils. though a good,
strong, sandy loan will produce a good
crop of hay. Moisture is more i'm
portant than the character of the
soil for it is humid weather plant
and will make an excellent growth
D. nearly every soil If rains are abund-
{a1: but is cut short in dry weather.
For this reason it does best on soils
which are naturally moist, but not wet.
Quantity Of Seed Per Acre. II in
tended for pasture, one may start with
very small quantity of seed, say
one peck per acre, and even il it is
not thick the first year it will become
thick of itself the second year. If
planted for hay, one should use at
least three pecks per acre and even
a bushel is better If, however, it Ys
sowed on oats in the spring and is
planted the first summer, one may
sow one-half bushel per acre and be as
sured that the voluntary crop of the
following year will stand very thick
on the ground and will make good
crop. Where it is sowed with the OBJ
ject Of harvesting It for seed, one-haif
bushel per acre is ordinarily enough
because it seeds better when the
plants are not too thick.

ARKANSAS BEHIND
IN DAIRY PRODUCTS
~ some States Each Cow Produces
S7oo--ln Arkansas 1t Amounts
To Only Sis.

With less than three milk cows to
every farm and the average product
per COW worth only S15.47 for year,
Arkansas is far behind other states in
the production of dairy products. THO
natural advantages for making pas
lures, hay and grain are tremendous.
and the Arkansas farmer can we'll
arford to pay more attention to the
milk COW, is the opinion Of H. e.
Dvoraehek, Professor of Animal Hus-
psndry with the University of Arkan-
sas, who says that a good dairy cow
IN many states is expected to bring in
a gross income Of at least $500 to
$4,000 a year.
Must Eradicate the Tick.
Arkansas can never become great
dairy state until the tick is eradicated.
Ticks not only suck the blood from
our animals and stunt them as we'll
as make it impossible to produce milk
most economically. but they make it
expensive and impractical to import
better sires in great numbers in an
effort to grade UP the cattle we have
and eliminate the scrub.
Better Care Neccasary-Brings
Returns.
It is true that the cattle tick is large.
1y responsible for the number and
quality of our native COWS; however,
the Indifferent care which the cows
have received is, perhaps, responsible
been too much on the summer pasture
basis too long in Arkansas. Most OF
Our COWS are freshened in the spring
and turned on to the pasture during
the summer to make living and give
what little milk they can produce un
der these conditions. Many of these
cows go dry by fall and are then
roughed through the winter on little
or no feed. The best COW in the world
cannot produce milk with such care.
There is no other animal on the
farm that is SO hard and so willing q
worker as the dairy COW, provided she
is supplied the raw material to work
with. Considering what the Arkan-
sas farmer puts into his cows in the
way of feed and care, they are return
ing to him a greater return than any
other farm animal in spite of the low
production. Give the Arkansas farm
milk COW chance and she will work
day and night, winter and summer,
and produce generously the best food
for your family.
