The Third Plan
In this cropping plan one of the
suggested crops is to be grown in
one yard while a crop is pastured in
the alternate yard. Crops should be
selected which will grow we'll in the
given district. The dates must be
modified for extreme north or
south.

Most folks agree that a good salad
needs chicken and the poultry family
seems to be unanimous in the op1n-
ion that good chickens need salad.
This story is about chicken salad as
henery habitues think of it--assum
ing that they do think.
During the spring and summer
months Il flock so located that it can
range does not need to have any
green feed supplied it. When the
or in any other limited space where
there is little or no green material,
they will not do their best unless
supplied with all the salad material
they can eat once day.
The question of now to supply the
best feed at the leSat cost is one
each poultry keeper must decide
largely for himself. 1t probably
makes little difference what green
feed is supplied providing it is palat-
able. Glover, alfalfa, rape, rye, oats
and Swiss chard are some of the
AS it is necessary to shut the hens
away from the crop when it is grow
ing, various cropping plans are adj
vocated. The poultry specialists in
the United States department of
agriculture recommend three plans
to fit varying conditions and locali-
ties. .
Front and Back Alternate Plan
Back Yard-Permanent. Blue
grass and clover or blue grass and
alfalfa in sod 10 be used as a
range while crops are growing in the
front yard. Large area desirable.
Front Yard-Temporary crops.
November 1 to April 1. Feed win
ter rye, vetch, crimson clover, etc.
April to July l, grow rape, chard,
lettuce. buckwheat.
July and August. Feed.
September 1 to November 1. Grow
winter rye, Vetch, crimson clover,
etc.
Temporary Crops in Both Yards
Where it is thought best to grow
temporary crops in both poultry
yards, the following rotation is an,
excellent one in some localities:

member that the eve is very much
like dairy cow. 1t is her business
to produce an abundance of milk,
If she does this her lambs will grow

If she is poor mixer the lamb will

torily. A COW will not yield milk

south would be to sell lambs just
at weaving time. This would be when
they are not more than four months

year and kept, and the older and less

be easily maintained. If lambs are
to be sold at weaving time 1T Will
of course, be necessary to feed them
grain. In handling the flock through
the summer if there is an abundance
of range on the farm very little grain
need be fed. The pastures should be
changed frequently, however, to pre-
vent as far as possible worm infesta-
ton. Some grazing crops should be
provided so that in case of a drouth
period fresh succulent food will be
available. In the south such an
abundance of crops are suited for
growth throughout the spring ana
summer that there is no difficulty
in providing as much of this type OF
food as may be needed.
An abundance of pure water should
be provided.
The lambs should be supplied with
as much salt and tobacco stems as
they will eat. The ewes can be used
during the summer to help keep the
and trash which might otherwise ac-
cumulate in the fields and pastures.

lowed with any degree of care a

In fighting the boil weevil you
should, proceed as follows: Prepare
your land as thoroughly as possible
and plant it as soon as practicable.
Planting, of course, simply to put the
seed in the ground is not the point
at issue. You should wait until the
ground is warm enough to insure
rapid and uniform termination of the
seed. Next, fertiliZe the land well,
using 500 pounds in your section OF
Georgia of formula containing 9 per
cent of phosphoric acid, per cent
of nitrogen and per cent of pot
ash. Put the fertilizer under the
drill row at the time of planting. The
cotton should be chopped to a stand
as soon as, possible Cultivate fre-
quently and rapidly. Pick all of the
weevils out Of the buds of the plants
each Monday morning from the time
the cotton is out of the ground. Con-
tinue to pick the fallen squares until
about the fifteenth of July. Spray the

1t is not worth while to sow al
falfa in the spring. We have never
yet succeeded in obtaining a desir-
able stand at any other time then
in the fall. The land you intend to
devote to this crop might be soWn to
peas this summer. The peas should
be turned under when in good condi-
ton to make hay. If you expect
to grow alfalfa successfully, you
should lime the SOIL putting two tons
on now and two tons on later in the
season. Plow the peas under in the
late summer. Work the land as a
fallow from then until seeding time,
which will be about October l. Use
100 pounds of a fertilizer containing
10 per cent of phosphoric acid, pei
cent of nitrogen and per cent OF
potash. Harrow this well into the
ground and then cross seed the al
falfa, using twenty pounds of re-
cleaned western seed per acre. Inocu-

 TEN INNING THRILLER
Special to The Bulletin.)


 Willinantic, Aug S.-A crowd of nearly two thousand braved the hundred degree heat this afternoon to witness the game between the American Thread Company team of this city and the Gra- ton & Knight Manufacturing company team of Worcester, the visitors winning out in ten-inning slugging match by the score of s to '. After tying the score in the ninth the locals went behind one in the first of the tenth and came to bat with the score s to against them. Johnson, the first man to bat hit Rei- gers delivery to Bennett at third and was safe at first when Bennetts throw went wide. Beecher attempted 8 sacri- flee bunting to eiger but was safe when the throw again went wild. A clean hit by Horkheimer filled the sacks with none out. It looked all Willimantic then and when Noel laced one to deep left it look ed as though the shot 1ers came next on the program. Burke, however, was on the jump at the crack of the bat and nailed the ball with his bare hand as it was about to roll to the fence. Johnson on third forgot baseball in his endeavor to tie the score and was nearly home when he was forced to return to third to save being thrown out. Had he remain ed on third where he oshuld have been

 The visitors began to score early, get ting four in the first with the use of four hits and several errors. The locals even it in the third, using a walk, triple by Beecher and five singles plus a couple of errors. From then on it was a seesaw game, the Graton & Knight team scoring in their half of the fifth, sixth and sev- enth, and the locals getting one each in seventh the visitors took the lead and held it until the ninth until Adams SCOT ed on a single by Smith when two were down. Graton & Knight scored in the tslth when Kierman hit safely and came nome on Burke's fly to deep center. The American Thread then landed three on base with none out and the heart-break- ing finish came.
 The game was filled with fine plays ana the fans yelled themselves hoarse during the last few innings Both teams were able to hit freely.

HAYS FAVORS IMMEDIATE
 ACTION ON STIFFRACr

Assurance that he looked upon the suf- frage cause and that of the republican party as one was given to a delegation of about twenty Connecticut suffragists who called upon chairman Will Hays of the, republican national committee in New York Saturday. Included in the delega- tion of women whose conference with chairman Hays lasted about two hours was Mrs Willis Austin of this city.
 Affirming his personal sympathy with their cause, he told the women that there should be immediate action upon the suffrage amendment and he outlined his attitude in statement which was in part as follows:
 Both parties recognize that the effects of the approaching Presidential election will influence our national life for veal or for woe for at least fifty years. There never was an election at which it was more important for opinion and senti- ment to express themselves. The action of Congres and of thirty legislatures has given to millions ot -Aneriean wo-

men the right to hope confidently for this great opportunity. Deny them the opportunity merely because the necessary governmental machinery is not set in motioon, and you will produce the un haelthy national situation which always exists when masses of citiens have burn ing convictions to express and effective outlet for their expression.
 I do not agree that so great an %sue should be settled only after a fresh leg islative election. Wisely or unwisely, the question whether ratification of a proposed amendment should be submitted to the State Legislatures or to popular conventions composed of. delegates elect ed upon that issue has been by the Constitution of the United States vested in Congress and not in the states. Conc gross, by submitting the proposed amend ment to legislative action, has negatived legislative bodies to determine the fate of the amendment. This is the basis upon which all the legislatures have act ed which have voted for or against rat iication. Assuming that ultimate rati- fcation of this amendment is inevitable, nothing can be more important than that the method of it's ratification should be uniform throughout the country. If of an adopted amendment it could be said in some states that it has received only legislative sanction while in others that it's approval had been by popular vote. the way would be open for un- wholesome distinctions between varying
 degrees of the authority in different states of the same Constitutional enact
 ment
 If, therefore, it is not for state author ities to submit the pending question to popular vote, no valid reason can be sug- gested for refusing to summon legis- lature in special session unless it be | executive disagreement within the antici- pated action of that body. But this, ! respectfully suggest, is not a considera- i tion by which authorities in any state should be moved. The test of the ex- istence of the emergency wn'ch justified
 summons to tn Legislature is not mere executive disapproval of the action
 which the legislative assembly will prob
 ably take The test is whether or not elimination of a disturbing issue and the
 determination of a great question of cit ienship before a pivotal election instead of after it.
 i I refrain from advancing the usual ar guments in behalf of suffrage. I leave
 entirely out of consideration the parti
 san advantage Or disadvantage whicl
 ratification might entail. I urge ratifi
 cation first in the hope of thereby clear
 ing the political atmosphere, second, ir the belief that suppression of effective ] opinion works harm to the whole bod! polite and finally, in the conviction

 It was a walkaway until the ninth and then Taftville staged a comeback and with a combination of errors and hits threatened to do things, scoring five runs.
 Tobin frightened up when things looked dangerous and with two on Murphy foul-- flied to Frechette.
