Six Hundred Tractors
in Webster County

than any other county in the state,
says County Agent A. w. Monosmith.
There are 500 tractors In use on Web
ster county farms at the present time.
This 10 500 over the average OF the
state. according to statistics Of Ivan.

partment Of agriculture, There are

there were not more than 1000 tract
ors In the state OF Iowa. That was IN
average OF about ono tractor to every
200 farms. On January of the pres
ent year there were by actual count.
9i0O tractors in the farms ready to
start the spring work. an average OF
one tractor to every 90 farms. The
last twelve months has developed an
extraordinary growth OF interest In
tractor power. duo largely to condi-
uons growing out of the great war.
Farmer Turns to Tractors.
"The Iowa farmer Is turning to the
tractor because it helps toward the
solution Of the vexatious problem of
farm labor. Forty years ago there

four-fifths Of tho population Of Iowa

looked to the farm for work.
when the war broke out Iowa had
no labor to spare. Iowa furnished
LOO, 900 men for the army and navy and
no man knows how many more thous-
ands left the farms, stores. trades and
industries. to take up other lines OF
war work. The farmer was up against
the most acute labor shortage this
country has ever known. And in the
face OF such conditions he was asked
to produce two bushels where only one
was produced before.
Impossible Order Is Filled.
TT sounded like an impossible order.
But itwas filled. In the space OF
few months the farmer had purchased
more tractors than he had in the ten
years previous. since the introduction
Of the machine in 1908.

Japanese Forage Introduced.
Kudzu, n native forage crop of ia
pan, has been successfully introduced
into the United States. and according
to specialists OF tho United states de-
partment Of agriculture, 1t is q forage
which merits extensive use on tho
heavy clay hillsidcs and otherwise ne
elected land OF the southern states.
Kudzo prospers In the eastern part OF
the United States. particularly south
ward. attaining luxurious growth
where the summers are warm and
moist. 1t Is largely used for orna-
mental purposes In most Of the south
ern states, the decorative vines often
climbing to a height Of sixty feet or
more.
The Japanese utilize kudzu on rough,
rock hillsides which are too steep to
be cultivated, the fiber of the stems
being used to make grass CLOTH" an
article Of commerce, while portman-
teaus are also manufactured from this
fiber. The kudzu roots are rich In
starch. which is used extensively In
making cakes and noodles. They also
make hay from the kudzrf vine,,i 1t be-
ing q great delicacy for sick horses, as
they will eat the kudzu readily when
they refuse other feed.
Fields in northern Florida, when
well established have yielded three
cuttings Of hay q season and as high
as ten tons an acre. Under favorable
conditions kudzu is a profitable crop,
notwithstanding the fact that its per-
ennial nature does not permit Of It's
being used In rotation.

Drainage A. An Investment.

Some Of the states have taken up
drainage In earnest. Virginia has made
an appropriation to reclaim 100000
acres of swamp lands and the courts
have approved the law. Drainage has
been extensively carried on by district
efforts In southeast Missouri with de-
cidedly profitable results. But the
matter Is plainly one for national
action ON a large and systematic basis.
Drainage can properly be viewed as
