LOCAL FARMER
TELLS HOW He
MADE FARM PAY
Grows Big Crops Now in
Sandy Soil Through Sci
entifiC Processes.

Scientific farming has been the
means OF making a poor productive
soil on the farm Of Aleck RuPel.
one of the progressive agriculturists
OF ST. Joseph county. into one of the
best farms in the county. Mr.. Rupel
has said the farm owned by him was
in deplorable condition when he
purchased IL and that he has worked
untiringly TO bring the soil 10 the
high state of fertility which it now
maintains
Mr. Rupel said he knew the farm
had been worked since 1881, during
which time former tenants failed TO
build the land up and let it go to
waste by reaping the crops and CIV
ing the ground no food from which
IL could sap more strength.
The land now farmed by Mr. Ru-
pei is of typical prairie soil. a small
part of the land is a rather heavy
clay, while the major part of the
ground is largely of a sandy loan
character About half of the 500
acres is underlayed with strata OF
gravel which gives evidence on the
surface of its presence.
Builds Up Soil.
Since Mr. Rupel started in to
build up the soil some four years
ago. remarkable results have been
accomplished which have gained the
attention of some of Indiana's lead
ing men who are interested in the
science connected with the indus
try
lie started in to improve the soil
by sowing a field of alfalfa hay, aft
err preparing the ground with a COW
6rirg of 400 pounds of bonemeal to
the acre, four tons of limestone, and
inOculating the seed which was
sown. The year this was done he
got a fine stand of alfalfa which pro-
cess he has followed up until his
TO the acre at each cutting. In a
good long season he is able to cut
the hay three times.
Applies Phosphorus.
Phosphorus has been applied to
every acre part Of it being covered
with raw rock phosphate and the
rest with acid phosphate.
Alfalfa is not the only crop grown
on the farm of Mr.. Rupel as he is
an earnest believer in the rotation
OF crops Oats although not very
well adapted TO this region are
grown on his farm with yields that
by far surpass those of the average
farmer. Wheat and rye grown in
rotation are cash crops on the farm,
and he has also found these two
products very profitable for the bed
ding of cattle.

ENDORSES TUBERCULIN TEST.

Confidence is the chief value OF
tuberculin testing. First. self-con-

your herd is free from tuberculosis
and the satisfaction that comes
from this condition; second. the
confidence the buying public puts

In making alfalfa hay. care must

Tie leaves are fine and easily lost

SHATTUCK MILL IS CLOSED AS RESULT OF LOW MARKET FOR LEAD

As a result of the recent drop in the price of lead and the fact that there is at present no market for the larger part of the lead produced in the United States, the mill of the Shattuck Arizona Copper company was closed yesterday afternoon when the morning shift came off. Approximately 40 men who were employed in it were laid off.
 In the mine, about 45 men who were engaged in getting out the lead silver ore for the mill, also were laid off. There may be slight reduction in the overhead force, also, it was intimated.
 At the present time. as far as can be ascertained. no reduction in the cop per mining force of the Shattuck com pany is contemplated.
