kept scrub stock. The final result Of
pure-bred sires is that the farmer
makes more money and the city family
gets more and better food, probably at
lower prices.
The crusade, the experts say, eventu-
ally will tend to result in reducing the
cost of living to the consumer without
taking the difference out of the pocket
of the producer. For that reason, they
point out, the city man has definite
money interest in the better sires cru

ed to put the same amount of effort
into it that the live stock breeder
should. he is expected to give encour-
agement and aid to the program when
ever the opportunity offers. And there
will be no lack of opportunity, partic-
ularly in the smaller cities and towns
where the farmers are In close con-
tact with the city business men.

When the ground is frozen, the snow
is flying, and the wind is whistling a
merry gale, your alfalfa field will prize
a warm winter overcoat under which
it will pass the cold weather In excel
lent condition. Nature is the tailor
that turns out the winter clothes for
the alfalfa field and specialists Of ag-
riculture recommend that farmers CO.
operate as far as possible with nature
in replenishing the winter wardrobe
Of this forage crop.
There are two important reasons
why alfalfa should not be cut or grazed
close at the end of the growing season.
1t is essential that a sufficient growth
be allowed to remain on the field to
catch and hold snow, and to afford
protection to the plants from severe
winter conditions. 1t is even more i'm
portant that the late growth he not
cut or grazed, since close cutting or
grazing makes it impossible for the
plant to store up the necessary re-

roots. Unless there is such reserve
upon which to draw, the vigor of the
plant is greatly impaired and it is not

REPAIR SHOP QUITE USEFUL
Time and Money Saved When Tractor

Get Out Of Order.

A shop that need not be equipped
with expensive tools, but will be found
almost Indispensable when installed, is
a demand Of modern farming. Should
tractor or other farm machine or
implement need repair, both time and
money can be saved If repair shop
is on the place.
A forge, anvil, tongs and hammer
will make YIELDS and straighten and

Many farmers who handle consid-
cradle quantities Of produce find 1t
profitable to use distinctive, printed
wrappers. Another simple means of
advertising is neatly printed gummed
labels for use on the outside of pack
ages sent by parcel post or express.
Advertisements in local or metropoli-
tan papers should be short and should
give a description Of the goods with
the prices, and the name and address
Of the person advertising. In some
cities the Sunday edition gives better
results than the daily edition.
What Advertiser Should Know.
The person who advertises must Of.
fer a product that is wanted by the
persons who read the paper at the
time the product Is advertised, in the
places where the paper has a circula-
ton. In other words, he must know
what to advertise, when to advertise,

ing are suggested forms for parcel
post classified advertising:

The definition Of the term "pure-
bred sires" Is written in one word
economy" There are many defini-
lions, many of them learned and long,
that might be written, but the breeding
experts of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture, when they met to
launch the state and national crusade
for Better Sires-Better Stock"
agreed that the primary meaning Of it
Is economy.
The scrub hog requires a certain
number of bushels of corn to make 200
pounds of pork. The pure-bred or high
grade hog takes the same number of
bushels of corn and makes 800 pounds
of pork. The pure-bred or high-grade
cow makes three gallons Of milk out
of the same quantity Of silage that the
scrub cow uses to make gallon and
a half of milk. These figures are not
meant to be scientifically exact, of
course, but merely to illustrate the
principle. The result is that the farm.
er gets more pounds of salable prod
uct out of his feed when he uses pure
bred sires at the head of his herds and
flocks. He gets more money and his
family lives better. But something
else happens. When he sells more

FARM TERRACING is
VALUABLE PRACTICE
Pennsylvania Farmer Enthusi-
astic Over Benefits.
Great Advantages to Be Derived Are
Little Understood In Greater Por-
tion Of Northern States-Pre-
vents Soil Washing.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The owner of a large farm in Penn
sylvania, on which one Of the first at
tempts at terracing in the North At
lantic states was undertaken last
spring, is enthusiastic about the bene-
efits of this work. He has asked that
the drainage division of the Bureau of
Public Roads, which supervised the
project, aid in extending the terracing
this fall.
This sort of rural engineering is new
in the region, and the low ridges at
various levels on the sloping fields Of
this farm have occasioncd the liveli-
est interest in the whole district. Ter
racing Of various types has been prac-
ticed in parts of the South for num-
Der Of years, but in many sections Of
the North its great advantages are
little understood. Consequently, the
bureau is particularly interested in
this demonstration of the permanent
value Of terracing on this Pennsyl-
vania farm.
The Bureau of Public Roads points
out that the washing away of earth
by water costs the farmers of the
United States approximately one mill
lion dollars every year. Soil losses
from this cause occur in every state
Of the union and in almost every coun-
ty of every state. Terracing is the
most effective method of prevention.
There are two types of terraces
the bench terrace and the ridge ter
race. A field of bench terraces re-
sembles a series. of benches or flight
Of steps. Ridge terraces, as the name
implies, are simply ridges Of earth
thrown up across the slopes or hill
sides. Ridge terraces are divided into
two classes with respect to width and
base, narrow base and the broad base.
A broad base is the more recent type
of the two, and as yet has been used
in only a few localities. However,
it is rapidly coming into general use
and is taking the place of the narrow
base because of its superiority for
most, If not all, conditions. This is
the type on the Pennsylvania farm.
It's chief advantage lies in the fact
that it can be readily crossed by large
farm machinery, and therefore it does
not interfere with the usual farm op-
erations. The broad embankment Of
earth gives the terrace strength to
withstand the pressure of water and
prevents breaks due to seepage.

able to withstand severe winter
weather. This is true of old as well
as of young plants, and in many cases
close cutting has been as responsible
for the mortality of the plants as
hack of inherent hardness on the part
Of the strain.
Late Hay Crop Losses.
A common practice of many alfalfa
raisers is to cut off a crop of hay
rather late In the fall or else to pas
ture the forage so heavily at this time
that adequate growth will not be avail
able for the protection Of the crop
during cold weather. The scant hay
crop which the grower gains by this
practice Of late clipping in no respect
repays him for the damage which he
usually does to his stand of alfalfa.
Every farmer should allow his alfalfa
fields to grow at random, unmolested
during the fall, aa by this he is pro-
viding the essential warm winter
clothes for the crop. Not only should
he refrain from cutting any hay but
he also should be careful not to Craze
the alfalfa too closely. This applies
particularly to new stands, seeded
the preceding summer, as the fall
growing season is the time when these
new fields establish their root systems
and produce sufficient growth for their
eold-weather protection. This growth,
which ultimately dies and lies like a
blanket over the field through the
winter, will not reduce the quality Of
the next cutting of hay. but, on the
contrary, win act as beneficial mulch.
Protecting Animals from BIoat.
It is also essential to protect the
farm live stock against bloat where
they are pastured even lightly during
the fall season on the alfalfa fields.
This is best done by never turning
the live stock ON the alfalfa fields at
a time when the animals are so hum
CRY that they will gorge themselves
with this succulent green feed.
Another reason why late fall cut
tings of new alfalfa fields are unde-
sirable comes from the fact that not
only are the hay yields limited in guam
tity, but they also are inferior in quail
ity, being washy and without the bone
building and growth-producing sub
stances which are the valuable ele-
ments in well-matured, full-grown al
falfa.

SWINGING DOOR VERY HANDY
Device VIII Enable Farmer to Keep
Hog Pens More Comfortable In
Winter and Summer.

A door attached at the top so it win
swing in and out will not only enable
one to keep the pens warmer in winter
and cooler in summer but will also
prevent the hogs from breaking the
door off. and does not require the care
that doors attached otherwise need.
says a writer in Michigan Farmer.
There are different methods of fasten-
ing. A criss-cross belt hinge works
well, or an ordinary metal hinge with
