MAN is AFTER INFORMATION
After Listening to Much Sage Advice,
Bill Jones Wants One Matter
Cleared Up.

Our friend Bill Jones is travelling
man and needs rest, but unfortunate
ly he doesn't sleep well. He has con-
suited a number of doctors in the vari-
GUS towns he visits, and being a sys-
tematic person has made a sort of
digest of the advice he has received.
It sums up as follows:
Don't sleep on your left side. as
that creates a pressure on the heart.
Don't sleep on your right side, as
it interferes with the action of the
right lung.
Don't sleep on your back, as that is
bad for the nervous system.
Don't sleep on your stomach. as that
causes a pressure bad for the diges-
.tiOn.
Don't sleep in chair, as the body
cannot properly relax.
Bill wants to know if any one can
tell him how to keep from falling over
when he sleeps standing up.

The application Of acid phosphate
has paid well on many alfalfa fields.
Humus, when decaying, makes avail
able plant food from the store of un-
available plant food in the soil.
Humus acts as a sponge and in
creases the water-holding capacity of
the soil.
For extra good melons, plant on hills
Of rotted manure and thin the vines
to not over three plants to the hill.

toes for scab before planting.

Novelist Booth Harrington was talk

''The Germans" he said, "were un-

Save Labor on the Stack.
The push rake furnishes the most
economical method of hauling hay to
the stack, barn, or hay press if the
distance is not much more than one
fourth of mile. One man, or boy,
with a good push rake and team
used to the work will handle three
times as much hay as two men with
small rack on a 'high-wheeled wagon.
Stacking hay with a push rake and
an overshot stacker mounted on
wheels eliminates nearly all of the
back-breaking work Of the old pitch
fork method. With yield Of one to
one and a half tons to the acre, two
men on the stack can easily handle all
the hay brought in by three push
rakes, accomplishing vast saving in
labor and hay over the pitchfork
method. Another method not so good
but still vastly better than the pitch
fork method is stacker equipment
with double harpoOn fork. Inc OUT
fit can be made at home and will cost
very little compared with the labor it
saves. but harder work is necessary
to get the hay on the stack than with
the overshot stacker.
When hay is to be baled from the
field, one man by working in the after
noon, can round up enough hay which
has been punched by push rakes to
keep the press going next morning un-
til the dew is gone from the hay in the
windrow. When the hay is not thus
rounded up the crew will lose two
hours or more on mornings when
there is heavy dew.
Carelessness in setting the press
may result in loss of labor. When the
press is properly set two men can get
plenty of hay to it from the stack.

COMMERCIAL ACREAGE

Q'repared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The prospective commercial acreage
of vegetable-seed crops for 1920. COM
pared with last year, shows marked
reductions in the acreage reported for
dwarf snap beans, all beet, carrot, let
tuce, onion seed, radish, spinach, sweet
corn, and tomato seed, while slightly
increased acreage is reported for gar
den pole beans, cucumber, muskmelon,
watermelon, parsley, pepper, pump
kin, and Swede turnip seed.
These estimates are based on re-
ports received by the bureau of mar
kets, early in April from commercial
vesetable-seed growers and are as ac-
curate and complete as it was possible
to obtain at that time.
The estimated prospective produc-
tion for 1920 computed on the basis
Of the acreage reported and the av-
erage yield per acre for the four-yea-
period 1916-1919), compared with that

cent less for dwarf snap beans, celery,

for cabbage and radish; and about
80 per cent less for garden and mangel
beet, carrot, onion seed, and spinach;
while an increase is indicated of 20
per cent for sugar beet and garden
peas and so per cent for onion sets.
The estimated acreage and prospect
i've production for 1920 are more COM
parable with those for 1917, and the re-
ductions in acreage and production as
noted should not be taken as an indica-
tion that the vegetable-seed growing
