HOW SHIPS GET LATE MAIL
AirpIanes Used to Overtake Liners and
Drop Bags While the Vessel Is
Travelling.

Experiments have proved it entirely
practicable to deliver belated transat-
lantic mail to steamers at sea by air.
planes.
The ship may have taken its depar-
ture several hours previously, yet the
flying machine, with a speed of 100
miles or more an hour, can easily catch
up with it and put the mail aboard.
A plane of the flying boat" type is
used for the purpose, and the water
proof mail bag is held in chute on
the side of the hull. The aviator flies
over the ship and the rigging en-
tangles a long line dropped from the
plane that has grapple tails on its end.
This line is attached to the mail bag,
which. when the grapple tails catch,
is jerked out of its chute, falling into
the sea.
1t is then an easy matter to haul
the mail bag aboard, while the steamer
continues it's uninterrupted voyage.

PREVENT SEEDING OF WEEDS
Early Flowing Retards Maturity of
Many Noxious Plants and Also
Benefits Soil.

Early plowing prevents the seeding
of many weeds that would mature
during the fall. It also covers up
many weed seeds and causes them to
terminate to be killed in the fall be-
fore they can produce more seed.
Early fall plowing opens up the soil
so that more of the fall rains soak
into the land, often a considerable
advantage. Early fall plowing also
gives time for any green manure or
stubble that is plowed under to be-
come somewhat decayed and be avail
able for growing crops the following
year.

There was q moments silence, then
his wife replied:

BERANGER'S HEART TOO KIND
Great French Poet Continually Preyed
On by Host of Ingrates Who
PIucked Him.

Interesting anecdotes are told of the
great French poet, Beranger, who died
In 1857.
The poet was as poor as he was
generous. All he had he gave away.
and when there was nothing left he
sent the beggars who haunted his
house to call on his numerous friends.
One of the characteristics of this
unfortunate benefactor, who was al
ways surrounded by host Of ingrates,
was his tolerant spirit. Since there
was no ante-chamber in his modest
home, the beggars who knew the heuse
stayed outside on the staircase; it was
impossible to see him without finding
a half-dozen of them on the stairs.
There they used to wait like ravens
for the small change, old clothes, and
sometimes new clothes, that Lisette
was the first to distribute to them.
When friends demonstrated with Be
ranger for giving away things he need
ed to people whom he did not know,
Lisette would answer:
':Oh. now, Berange will just write
another song-the lazy feilow!''

and cultivation and handling Of the
crop. Selected strains of some of the
varieties are being made with view to
producing those more particularly
adaptable for definite purposes, such as
the making of high-grade table and
cooking oil or an oil that may be used

Other purposes for which selections

VEGETABLE MATTER FOR SOIL
Grass or Sod Crops Are Most Valuable
as Basis for More Humu-Other
Good Methods.

There are many well-known meth
DDS of supplying the necessary vege-
table matter to the soil. Crop residue
is usually the basis of more humus.
Grass or sod crops are the most valu-
able in this respect. Stable manure is
also of great value in increasing hu-
mus. Winter cover crops, such as
annual clover, vetch, or rye, are now
extensively grown to be turned undo:

LOW GRADE WHEAT FOR FEED
tening Material as Corn, But
More Protein.

If your wheat grades very low, you
should consider whether it is not
worth more to you for feeding pur-
poses. At the present prices of feeds,
wheat should be worth $1.SO per
bushel for feed, particularly if there
is some dockage in it. Wheat does
not contain quite as much fattening
material as corn, but more protein,
which is the milk producing and grow
ing substance. For this reason 1t
makes an excellent feed for milk for
cows as a part of the grain ration.
1t also will make a good feed for pigs.

Electrical Hair CUTTING.

There is in use in France an elec-
trio substitute for the BARRIERS scis-
sors. 1t consists of q comb carrying
along one side of its row Of teeth a

through the locks to be shorn the heat
ed wire instantaneously sewers the
hairs, leaving them Of even length and

process of singeing with taper.

dairy breeds the percentages of re-
actors were relatively high, but in
others the percentages were low.
Likewise in dairy herds, as with beef
cattle, there was little uniformity be-
tween the proportion of reactors for
purebreds and grades representing the
same breed.
Efforts of Owner Count Most.
Briefly, the figures indicate that the
freedom of q herd from tuberculosis
is influenced chiefly by the efforts of
the owner to keep tho herd healthy,
not by the breed. Some breeders as
sociations have been noticeably active
in encouraging their members to adopt
tuberculosis-erad asure1 3.
The figures are believed to reflect such
activity.
Furthermore, the compilations dis
prove the assertion, sometimes made,
that purebred herds are more suscepti-
BILE to tuberculosis or have more of
it than grade cattle. In fact, the high
est percentage of tuberculous cattle
in any group was for grades.

Formula Given for Balancing Ration
for Building UP, Maintaining

In response to an inquiry in regard
70 the use Of tankage in balancing a
ration for hogs we quote from Illinois
station bulletin:
For young growing pigs, as follows:
One part tankage to nine parts corn,
bran or middlings; for adult hogs, one
part tankage to II parts corn, bran
or middlings This balances ration
with the proper proportions of each,
to build up the hog or maintain or
fatten the hog.

MAKE START WITH ALFALFA
Easier to Get Stand Where Sweet
Glover Has Been Previously
Grown-Bacteria Needed.

It seems to be somewhat easier to
get alfalfa started where sweet clover
has been previously grown, as the
sweet clover is more likely to give
better infestation of the proper bac-
terra to the soil, but it is not neces-
sary to grow sweet clover first when
the alfalfa seed is well fnoculated.
Even if sweet clover is to be grown
first its seed should be inoculated or
it may not grow much.

Listen to this, fishermen. There's
a man residing in New York state who
has discovered a reliable way to learn
when the fish are biting, without 60
ing to a stream and trying his luck.
Here is the formula: Catch and keep
alive catfish. When you wish to go
fishing, dig some worms and throw
them to the catfish. If he eats them,
the fish will bite; but if he don't, you
might as well stay at home.-Ex-
