 The one lesson that Santa Barbara should draw from this experience is that permanent and satisfactory form of machinery should be devised by which the public itself, which is not organized, but which in the end bears the expense of all disputes between employers and employees, should have the opportunity to be considered in the settlement of those questions which so nearly affect every man in the com- munity."

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Sewage Disposal.

Most Of the diseases which may be
carried by milk are due to contamina-
ton of that product by human agency.
Typhoid, dysentery, scarlet fever. diph-
iberia and septic sore throat are of
human origin. Typhoid and dysentery
are spread originally by contamination
by human excreta, the others are
spread originally by discharges from
the nasal and throat passages, conse-
quently when these diseases are con-
veyed through milk, it simply means
that the milk has had added to it the
excreta or discharges from the body of
person sick with one of these dis
eases or carrier of one Of them. AS
go-between, the house fly, which
matches in filth and feeds on the food
we eat, Is q most dangerous insect
enemy. The washing Of excreta into
water supplies, through the soil or on
account Of poor well curbing or other
surface conditions, is an important
means Of spreading such diseases as
typhoid fever and dysentery. The ham
ding Of milk by unclean persons is also
source Of danger. The remedy for
these conditions is the proper disposal
Of human excreta so that there can be
no danger of such contamination
through the agency Of flies. water sup
ply, or human beings.
Proper sewage disposal on dairy
farms Is a protection not only to the
consumer of milk but is of special inn
portance In stopping the spread of cpl
demic disease in the dairyman's own
family. A typhoid case In family will
spread to other members of the same
family unless great care is taken In
properly disposing of the excreta from
the patient.
The importance Of proper sewage
disposal, especially on dairy farms, is
being strongly emphasized by the
United States department of agricul-
ture and the United States public
health service.

LITTLE GARDENS
HELP WITH FOOD
Many Citizens of Southern States
Respond to Cry for More
Vegetables.
BACK YARDS ARE UTILIZED
Report Of Specialist of Tennessee ls
Received by United States Depart
nent Of AgrIeuIture-Plan Of
Organization.

prepared by tho United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Thousands of city people In the
southern states responded this year to
the campaign for more home gardens,
and 1t was largely with the products
produced in these city gardens that
the South was able to feed itself.
An example of the success of the
garden work In the South is given In
the report of g. J. Miles, city garden
specialist of Tennessee, recently re-
ceived by the United States depart
ment of agriculture. Through the eff
forts of Mr.. Miles, cooperating with
all interested agencies, "a cities and
towns In Tennessee were systematical-
ly organized In garden work. In these
"a cities there were 59S,550 gardens,
covering total of 4,192 acres. In
the city of Memphis alone there were
29,912 gardens, covering an area of
1923 acres. According to the report,
Knoxville had 10000 gardens Nash
vile 5000, and Chattanooga 5000.
SIT was the purpose of this work"
says Mr.. Miles in his report on the
methods of organization and conduct
ing the work, ito encourage the utili-
cation of back yards and vacant lots
for growing garden vegetables and to
confne operations to cities and towns
of the state over $500 population.
Plan Described.
sour first effort was to effect an or
ganization in as many of the towns
and cities of the state as possible. The
general plan of organization follows:
A mass meeting was called, to which
existing organizations, such as parent
teachers, council of defense, and bust
ness mems organizations, were espe-
eially invited. At this meeting CEN
trail chairman was named to have gen.
eral supervision of the work Of the
town or city. Associated with this
chairman is committee composed of
one or more persons from each ward,
school district, or natural division of
the town.
1.-THE immediate work of this COM
mittee was to take garden census,
listing the back yards and vacant
lots suitable for gardening, the per-
sons who contemplated gardening, and
particularly those who desired more
space than they had at their command.

gressive spirit, and each individual In
the community is helped. Even the
boys and girls take an added interest
in the farm and especially In the dairy
herd.
A North Dakota association held q
cattle show at which cows, bulls, and
young stock were exhibited. The show
was held in connection with three
day chautauqua, and 1t was estimated
that 5000 people visited the show and
the chautauqua. Great interest CEN
tered about the boys stock-judging
contest, which was one of the features
of the occasion. The educational
value of such work can hardly be over
estimated.
In Michigan the work Of bull as
ISOLATION led to an ANNUAL five days
agricultural school in winter and an
annual summer picnic. At the picnics
small cash prizes were gifen for the
best heifers exhibited. This associa-
ton consists of % members who in
vested sos each, for which they have
already had the use Of good pure-bred
bulls for six years.

This portable wooden granary is 10
by Ia feet In floor dimensions and "a
inches to the caves, with capacity for
$50 bushels of grain, 1t is built on
skids or runners which permit of NOV
ing it from place to place by tractor
or horse power. 1t is of such a height
that 1t can be set near the separator
during the thrashing operation, so that
the grain can be deposited directly into

of one or two wagons and their crews
which otherwise would be necessary
in transferring the grain from the
machine to the storage bins. In addi-
ton, the portable granary is available
for the storage Of other farm produce
or supplies when 1t is not needed as q

AVERT FIRE LOSSES
At Least Half Million Dollars Worth
OF Foodstuffs Saved to Farm
ers In California.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment or Agriculture.)
Fire damage in California this year
is only 40 per cent of that Of previous
years, fire underwriters state, due to
the work of fire companies initiated
by the farm bureaus. To avert q
threatened loss of foodstuffs through
fire. the bureaus organized local rural
fire companies in 1868 farm-bureau
centers of the state. OF these, PSI
companies purchased automobile trail
ers, containing fire-fghting equipment
for grain and grass fires, and 6,391
farmers enlisted In rural fire COM
panies which covered territory OF
1902 square miles. The loss in Cali
fornia from grain and grass fires was
$4,000 a year before sabotage and
pro-Germanism increased the fire risks,
and 1t Is probable that at least half q
million dollars worth of foodstufs has
been saved by these rural fire COM
panies.

These latter at once were put In touch
with owners Of vacant lots, and in
most cases were permitted to garden
these vacant spaces free of rent.
'In some instances. notably In Mem
phis and Chattanooga, this committee
listed the plowmen, and were able to
reduce the rate of blowing from So an
hour to $3.50 or 81 per hour. Grow
ers of plants were also listed and
plants procured in large quantities
were furnished at a reasonable rate.
Problems Solved.
'Twenty-four cities and towns were
organized In this manner this year. It
has been my purpose to visit each of
these organizations once a month and
spend day and night or more with
them. AT night the committees, to-
gether with any others interested,
were called together for a conference.
At this conference garden problems
and plans for the month were dis
cussed and plans for the month were
discussed. On the day following prac-
teal demonstrations were conducted
in the gardens. In addition to my
monthly visits, newspaper articles
treating garden problems have been

and occasionally 4 tons, are obtained.
AS pasture crop the soy bean can
be used to advantage for all kinds Of
stock. The most profitable method is
to pasture with hogs, supplementing
the corn ration. Mixed with corn, the
soy bean is excellent for ensilage.
No insect or fungous pest has as
sAmed any great economic importance
In The culture Of the crop. The soy
bean, however. is subject to root-knot,
a disease caused by an eelworm, or
nematode. which occurs in many of
the lighter soils Of the South. To
plant soy beans on such infested soil
is dangerous practice.

SAVE SUPPLY OF FLAxSEED
Wise Policy for Farmer to Resist HIuh
Prices and Keep Enough Seed
for Next Year.

prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture.)
Present high prices for flaxseed will
tempt many farmers to sell all they
have. This will be especially true In
the sections where last years drought
was severe and crop production small.
Now is the time, however, to resist the
temptation Of fancy prices and to save
enough good seed for next year. Al
ways use the tanning mill, for flaxseed
sometimes carries serious flax diseases,
and mustard seed left in 1t win cause
beautiful yellow field, even though all
that's yellow is not gold The bright,
clean, heavy seed left after thorough
tanning will be most free from disease.
Store your seed in dry place, for it
has mucilage In its overcoat and sticks
like glue if it gets wet.
Remember your nelghbor when fan
ming flax; for he may need some Of
your seed. 1t will help him as well as
your community if he gets good seed
from you, instead of using the poor
seed which he may have to buy If he
waits until seeding time next spring.
If you have good seed for sale, tell
your county agent and your state ex-
tension director. Owners of good seed
of wilt-resistant strains should try to
sell 1t only for seed purposes, rather
than to let 1t go to the elevator to be
sold for oil making, as farmers have
not been able during the last two years
to buy enough seed of wilt-resistant
strains.

UTILIZATION OF
SOY BEAN CROP
Climatic Adaptations Are About
Same as Corn-Is More
Drought Resistant.
FERTILE SANDY LOANS BEST
Furnishes Well Balanced Ration in
Combination With Many Systems
of Rotation-Straw Makes
Most Valuable Feed.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The extensive utilization of the soy
bean for forage and the increased use
Of the beans for oil and for human
food have resulted In an enormous IN
crease In the acreage of the crop.
The climatic adaptations of the soy
bean are about the same as those of
corn. 1t is more drought resistant
and less sensitive to an excess of mois-
ture than cowpeas and corn. The soy
bean succeeds best on fertile sandy
loans and clay loans.
When sown on land not previously
planted to this crop, 1t is advisable to
inoculate 1t.
The best time for planting soy beans
Is about that for planting corn.
The variety to plant is of prime i'm
portance and should be one adapted to
local conditions. About 20 varieties
are now handled by growers and seeds
men.
Compineo IN NOTATION.
Soy beans may be combined in many
systems of crop rotations, their cash
value being sufficient to encourage the
growing of the beans as one Of the
main crops.
In combination with other crops,
such as corn, cowpeas, and Sudan
grass, the soy bean furnishes a we'll
balanced ration, large yield, and
great variety of forage.
The large yield of seed. the ease Of
harvesting it, and the increasing de-
mand for the beans for planting pur-
poses, for food, and for the produc-
ton of oil and meal recommend the
soy bean for seed production.
The feeding value of soy bean seed
compares faVorably with that of other
concentrated feeds. The growing Of
seed for feeding will produce, at a
moderate cost, at least part Of the
high protein concentrates necessary
for stock feeding and milk pro-
duction.
Straw Is Valuable.
The straw obtained from thrashing
soy beans for seed is valuable feed
for all kinds of stock.
The variety and palatability of the
forms In which the soy bean can be
served make 1t a very desirable article
Of human food, and its use as such is
gradually increasing.
The soy bean makes an excellent
hay for high feeding value which is
greatly relished by all farm animals.

COMMUNITY BREEDING

Ten years ago farmer in
northern Wisconsin began to
breed Guernseys In a Holstein
district. He now has a fine herd
and wonders why buyers never
come his way. The reason is
that when buyers want Guern-
seys they naturally go to a
Guernsey district. AS a rule the
breeders of purebred cattle al
reasy have learned the lessen.
The principle is as true of grades
as of registered stock, but many
owners of grade cattle seem to
have overlooked 1t. Cooperative
bull associations encourage the
keeping of only one breed on the
farms of its members and the es-
adjustment of that breed In the
community. A reputation is thus
established for a community
which attracts'buyers and which
IS rarely possible where breeders
work individually in marketing
their stock.
