A represent alive of the State Rate
Commission who was called here to
find the cause of the power shortage
completed the tests Wednesday and
discovered that the fault is in the
water wheel which is developing less
than half its tabled capacity. For
the present nothing can be done but
undoubtedly in the spring a new
wheel will be installed. In the
meantime it might pay TO examine
the one in use for alignment, worn

for trash that may become lodged in

that's what water power mill men do
when an unexplainable loss of

CULTIVATION GREATLY AIDS

Cultivation of alfalfa after the sec
Ond cutting is Il successful practice,
according to H. d. Hughes, head OF the
farm crops department of Iowa State
college. Cultivation is beneficial part
ly because Of the moisture conserved
but mainly because. bluegrass and
many weeds are destroyed.
IT has been repeatedly demonstrated
that thorough cultivation is beneficial.
The alfalfa renovatOr or the spring
tooth harrow are the best implements
to use. The renOvator is preferred
because of the smaller shoves. The
disc may do well except in years of
abundant rainfall when the bluegrass
is too thick to kill out

the desired results are not secured be-
cause the work is not thoro enough.

cess. 1t is easy to get a good stand,
but the bluegrass soon takes the crop,
especially if pastured."
The above situation should not affect
single alfalfa grower in Iowa. If
a good stand is secured. it may be kept
for many years without danger of loss
from weeds or bluegrass. The alfalfa
renOVatOr or SpringtOoth harrow will
do the work.
