Growing Spring Wheat

Many questions which have come
to the county agents Office on the
growing Of spring wheat are answered
In the article below. written by ]. C..
Kline. county agent. Widespread IN
terest has been shown over the coun-
~ on the prospects Of spring wheat
growing.
Questions regarding the growing Of
spring wheat in this county come to
the ONCE weekly. On this account
the writer will discuss briefly some
Of the results obtained by the Purdue
Experiment station
AS general average over a series
OF years spring wheat has averaged a
yield IA bushels per acre in the same
field where silver mine oats averaged
53.6 bushels and barley Is bushels
per acre, and on the same soil where
winter wheat averaged Els bushels.
The principal reasons for this low
yield is that climatic conditions are
not favorable. Spring wheat is ma
turaliy cool weather plant and Is
quite sensitive to hot weather. 1t
seems to be more subject to diseases
than winter wheat. The writer has
seen Aeld after field taken by the
black rust in northern Minnesota and
the farmers hardly received enough
wheat to repay them for the seed
used In planting. II the weather
should be cool one can expect very
good yield. Two years ago the spring
wheat at Purdue averaged 26.8 BUSH
els per acre on the same soil where
winter wheat yielded BAL.
Under normal conditions, Purdue
does not recommend the raising Of
spring wheat as compared with oats,
rye, winter wheat, or barley.
The ground should be prepared
about the same as for oats only use
little more care in getting q fine
seed bed. 1t seldom pays to pillow for
this crop Corn stuble ground thor
oughly disked and narrowed and sown
with a drill makes an ideal condition
for spring wheat The rate of seeding
should be about the same as for win
ter wheat
Grow Barley for Hog Feed.
Since barley ranks about 10 per
cent. less in feeding value than corn
and since SO many hogs are produced
in Wayne county l see no reason
why farmers Of this county cannot
grow barley to a good advantage. The
soil requirements are practically the
same as for oats. The seed bed can
be prepared the same as for oats.
would be glad to assist in securing
seed for seeding.

GENERALIZATION of the novel of the
same title. Aside from it's intense
popularity in this country it has
proven equally entertaining in Lon
don, where it has been on the boards
for nearly a year. The play derives
us title from the audacious nocturnal
visits of the young Beatrix Wander
dyke, only daughter Of a merchant
peer, to the studio of society artist.
On one of her visits the wayward
young person meets poet and AL
Australian hunter, and later when
called to account for her actions, en-
deavors to get herself out of the mess
by saying she has been secretly mar
ried to the Australian. Being a

Calotabs, the New Nausealess Gallo
mel Tablets, Cut Short Colds
and May Prevent Flu by
Keeping Liver Active.

Physicians have learned from ex-
perience, during the epidemic of in
fuenza, that one of the most impor-
ta.t factors in the prevention of flu
and pneumonia is to keep the liver ac-
tive so that the digestive organs may
be in perfect working order and the
system thereby enabled to throw off
colds, check sore throats, and resist
serious complications. For this pur-
pose they have found that the new,
nausealess calomel tablets called Cal
otabs, are far more effective even
than the old style calomel, which was
formerly the universal favorlte, as
Calotabs do not weaken the patient
nor interfere with the appetite and
digestion.
At the first sign of a cold or sore
throat, doctors recommend one Gallo
tab at bed time with swallow of
water-that's s all. No salts, no nau-
sea, nor the slightest interference
with your diet, pleasure, or work
Next morning you wake up feeling
fine, your liver is active, and your ap-
petite is keen for a good breakfast.
