Federal Grades
For Wheat to Stav

Federal grades for wheat will not
cease to be enforced under the United
States grain standards act when the
United States Grain corporation
ceases to function. Reports have been
received by the bureau of markets
that. farmers and grain dealers IN
some parts of the country are under
the impression that the federal
grades and the grain corporation
will "go out" together. This rumor
may be due to the fact that the
grades went into effect at the begin
ming of the 1917 crop movement, at
approximately the same time thar
the Food Administration Grain cor
porat1on began its control of wheat
marketing.
The grain corporation was created
under war emergency law. The law
which empowers the secretary OF
proved August II, 1916. and is a
permanent measure. Federal grades
for wheat had been contemplated by
the department of agriculture for
several. years prior to the entry OF
the United States into the war, and
a large amount offs investigational
work had been done toward estab-
fishing. national wheat standards
The wheat grades would have been
established at the time they were
even if there had been no war and,
therefore, no grain corporation. The
grades were promulgated by the sec
rotary of agriculture on March 81,
1917, to become effective on July I,
1917, for winter wheat and on Au-
gust l, 1917. for spring wheat, and
were revised in their present form

THE PSICE OF PERMITTING
LAND EROSION

The land waste in our great state
is simply appalling. According to
the best figures obtainable, it approx
mates 600 tons per square mile, or
1885, 900 tons a year. Each ton con-
tains on a conservative estimate
of phosphoric acid and four pounds
of potash. At present figures, the
nitrogen is worth at least twenty
five cents a pound, the phosphoric
acid, seven cents pound and the
potash, twelve and half cents q
$1.64 per acre. Our rivers run, red
to the sea with the life blood of the
land. They are the arteries of the
soil. In dry times, they supply by
seepage vast quantities of water to
our crops; in, times of flood, they
drain the land They carry the es-
scnce of the fertility of our soils and
deposit it beyond the reach of our
growing crops. Erosion goes for
ward steadily and constantly. The
CALLED hillside is a familiar picture
1t corresponds to the! bloody and hor
rifying wounds which the individual
receives on the field of battle. If a
man were lying with cut arteries
bleeding to death, we would hasten
to bind up his wounds, but the con-
ditions which are going forward in
our rural communities, and L some
times think becoming worse instead
of better, attract no attention. Is it
not worth while to conserve and
save? Do we not owe that much to
prosperous people. Is our motto to
be "eat, drink and be merry for to-
morrow we die" Is it not worth
while to trouble ourselves about the
destruction of the patrimony of our
boys and girls? Are we to be class

The Literary Digest of May 8 de-
votes considerable space to extracts
from leading daily newspapers in all
parts of the United States in regard
price-fiXing of the American Cotton
association at the Montgomery con-
vention, held April 1916
A number of the newspaper edi
tors, located especially in the north
ana west. severely condemn the
commmitte and the association for
suggesting price OF sixty cents for
remnant ef the crop of 1919 still
left in the farmers hands. AS a
matter of fact the committee did not
fix a price of sixty cents as was
sent out to the press and exchanges
over the Associated wires. That part
of the committees report referring
to a price for cotton is herewith
quoted as follows: ~
BE it further resolved, That the
worlds demand for the manufactured
products from cotton has placed the
price of the manufactured products
far above a just ratio of the present
prices paid farmers for cotton. The
spinners should pay farmers price
not less than sixty cents per pound
for cotton, basis middling, which
price would enable them to make
enormous profits on the manufac-
of said manufactured products" e
This action of the committee nei-
Their fixed or recommended that the
farmers. should demand sixty. cents
for the remainder of the crop on
hand. 1t was in the nature of a
suggestio- So. the spinners that on
account of the present enormous
profits they were making on manu-
featured goods, they could we'll af-
ford to pay farmers sixty cents for
middling cotton. ,- +'
Criticism of the present high prices
for cotton fabrics appear to be di-
rected solely at the growers of cot

side the zone of the American Cot
ton producing area,and are conse-
quently ignorant of the true facts

EFFICIENCY OF 900 FARMS COMPARED

| time spent in the field is about two-
| thirds of an hour less per day in the
| fall. ,'' -.., -. -. ..
| AS is the case in spring blowing,
the 14-inch pillow seems.to cover prac-
| tically as much ground per day as
the 16-inch size, provided both are
| drawn by the same number of horses.
The addition Of the fourth horse in
| creases the efficiency Of the unit by
about 10 per cent and the addition of
the fifth horse to the 16-inch ploW re-
/ suits in a Similar Increase. Except
ing, under favorable conditions, a
sulky plow seems to be somewhat
| of an overload for three horses of
the size and type used on these
farms.
Many Gang P1ows Used
Over $50 men reported using. horse
drawn gang .plows on. their farms.
About 80 per cent of these plows
have 14-inch bottoms. Most of the
remaining ploWs have 12-inch hot
toms. Some plows with 13-lnch bot
toms were reported, but the nuInber
was so small that no figures on their
performance are given. Over three
fourths of the men who use gang
pIows also reported the, use of sulky
plowS. s-.'. H.
A comparison of an average davis
work for the 16-inch sulky plows and.
28-ineh gang plows show that so
gang pillow drawn by four horses is
the most efficient unit in both spring
and fall. In the spring this outfit
covers l IA acres per LAY per horse,
while both the sulky plow drawn by
three horses and the gang plow drawn
by five horses cover one acre per day
per horse The gang pillow drawn
by six horses covers but nina-tcuths
of an acre per horse.
In the fall four horses with the
gang pillow cover 1.6Z acres per horse,
while three. horses on the. sulky pillow
and five horses on the gang Flow
cover SO and 81 acre .ner horse, re-
spectively. Four horses on the sulky
pillow and six horses on the gang pDow
cover ~ and rs acre per horse,
respectively. However,, the gang
pillow is evidently a heavy load for
four horses in the fall, excepting I'M
der favorable conditions. The 2S-inch
gang is. a. somewhat heavier load for
six horses the NOSE popular sized
team used in the fall, than is the
16-inch sulfSy for four horses, but is
a lighter load than the 1G-inch sulky
for three horses. H..
AS far as man labor is concerned
the gang pillow drawn by six horses
is, of course, the most efficient unit
both in the spring and fall, but wncn
horse labor as we'll as mali labor is
considered, it is seen that the adj
vantage of this largest nnit is some.
