KEEP UP PREPARATION

A first class seed bed for corn or
tobacco is about half the cultivation
necessary. Perhaps il means more
than half cultivation because the
cultivation of a crop after it begins
to grow depends very largely upon
the condition the soil is in when
the seed goes into the soil.
Nothing will pay bigger dividends
than the constant use of disc har-
row both before and after the soil
is broken. A good team and sharp
disk harrow will do more toward
insuring a good crop than is usually
understood. When the surface OF
'he soil is thoroughly pulverized
with a disk harrow before it is
plowed, it allows the dirt to settle
perfectly into place against the sub
soil thus allowing the moisture to
rise easily.

Largest Earth Embsnkment.

The Belle Esurche Irrigation dam in
South Dakota Is the largest earth en-
bankment In the world Its construc-
tion was authorized by congress az
cost OF S5,O000O0. From an engineer.
Ing standpoint this project Is one ~
the most Interesting which the govern
ment has yet undertaken. Its prlnci-
pal structure Is the easthen dam. This
dixie, which closes the lowest depres
sion In the rim Of a natural basin, Is
6,200 feet long. 20 feet Wide ON top
and 10 feet high I'm the highest place.
The Inside face of this structure,
which has a slope Of one TO two, II
protected from wind and wave action
by two feet of screened gravel, on
which are placed concrete blocks each
four by six feet. The cublcal CON
tents Of this dixie are 42.OO0,OO0 feet,

BED BUGS

The eggs are laid in the springs

around the bedstead. Sometimes
in the wall or under the wall paper.
The eggs are white and many
they lay the eggs in little cracks
hundreds may be found in one small
place. When Matched, the young
bed bugs look like the old ones, but
in some few cases, they are very
different from the old ones.
To Keep Down Bed Bugs. Each
week. on cleaning day, air the mat
tresses and turn them. Metal beds
are better than wooden beds. Take
down all the beds three or four
times year, especially at spring
and fall housekeeping, and oil all
joints with a mixture Of kerosene
and turpentine. AT spring house
cleaning apply bed bug extermina-
tor thoroughly TO kill the eggs that
are laid at that time. Dust and
clean out cracks on beds at least
once a week. Dust with cloth
moisten with Kerosene, inside and
outside Of bed. Scatter wild thyme
about mattress and in the vicinity

NARROW GAP FARMERS NIGHT
SCHOOL

The Farmers Night School al
Narrow Gap was well attended
throughout the entire week. There
were 1923 in attendance.
The program was carried out as
arranged with the exception Of Fri
day night when IL rained so heavily
that il was impossible for the peo-
pie to get out. The specialists from
the State College of Agriculture.
Lexington, were all present and
conducted very interesting discus
sions except Professor Roberts who
was unable to attend. All the
specialists from Berea College at
tended and conducted interesting
discussions and demonstrations.
An agricultural club Of boys and
girls was organized and set to work.
A large number Of Berea workers,
students and teachers attended
this Farmers Night School and as
sisted in many ways.
Miss Fox, the community leader,
certainly deserves much praise and
honor for her efforts to make this
meeting a success. Her work shows
results and a greater work is yet TO
come. Miss Fox is natural COM
munity leader.
The week closed on Sunday with
the celebration of the 25th anniver-
sary of the Sunday School. There
were more than 200 people in attend
ance at this meeting. Speeches
along the line Of Sunday School,
church. community, social and agri-
cultural work were made. A bounti-
full dinner was served by the COM
munity. Everybody left at four
o'clock feeling inspired by the in
spirational addresses and good din
ner.
Big Hill is certainly showing a
great interest in the progressive
movements of 1919.

GET THESE RIGHT NOW

The busy farmer has very little
time right now for Teading. How
ever, there are times even when
farm work pushes hardest when a
bulletin is as handy as can be be-
cause some questions must be ans
wered at once. The College of Agri-
culture has lately issued several
bulletins. which ought to he in
every farmers home for ready ref
erence. Here is list Of them with
Just a suggestion of what they con-
tain:
"The Home Vegetable Garden"
Circular No. 81, is built for the per-
son who gardens. in Kentucky. II is
out Of the ordinary because it has
several very unusual tables which
can be consulted for the time it
takes the common vegetables to ma
ture. for information about the COM
mon garden insects. the damage
they do and their control. and for
the Identification of plant diseases
and methods Of curing them.
Alfalfa" Circular No. 7, should
be in great demand as the growing
o: this wonderful plant has increas-
cd enormously in Kentucky during
the past few years. In Pendleton
county. where sweet clover has pre-
pared the soil for alfalfa. thousands
Of acres Of alfalfa clothe the hill
sides.
elements of Bookkeeping" Circu-
lar No. 60, is handy little bulletin
both for the person who has never
handled bees and for the old bee
keeper. II is timely because spring
ia here and the bees are busy.
Asparagus" Circular No. 6s,
should be Of great interest because
gardens were so carefully tended
last season. Every home garden
ought TO have at least a small as
paragus bed for early spring use.
Any or all OF these bulletins can

OF Agriculture at Lexington or your

DON'T SELL HENS

The following letter written by
one of the poultry experts in the
field for the College Of Agriculture
is so timely that the county agent
is reproducing IL here in full for the
readers Of the paper:
"The other day | saw a woman
drive into a small town with crate
full Of hens for sale. Their beau-
tiful red combs and their plump
soft bodies told anyone that they
were all laying. In fact. a few eggs
were in the bottom OF the crate as
the farmers wife sold them TO tho
dealer for four cents more pound

autumn.

had fed and cared for those hens

a quarter more per head for them.

why the farmers wife didn't realize

the most successful hog grow
ers in the county, but can en-

If you doubt the truth of this
statement. go to the Farmers
National Bank, of this city, and
take a peep at a sample of corn
which Mr.. Germann has on en-
hibit there. This corn is said
to be so much superior to some
other samples of corn that has
been on exhibition at that place
