They become partly decayed in the
fall and are in position to quickly de-
cay the spring following. This re-
suits in making available a large
amount of plantfood, and crops grow
ing on such soil do better than those
'plowed so late that decomposition
comes on after the growing season.
The decay of vegetable matter tn

water and the conservation Of soil
moisture are all very important fac
tors In making the next years crop
All of these are more favorably pro-
vided through early fall blowing than
through late blowing. Insect pests
are also held in check by fall blowing
Coupled with the soil advantage of
early blowing is the saving of time
in spring in getting the crop in the
ground. Early seeding often gives
assurance Of a good crop.
Pieces Of land badly infested with
quack grass, canada thistle or noxious
weeds, can web be replowed just be-
fore freezing time, thus pulverizing
the soil more completely, setting back
the weeds and making still better con-
ditions for the growth of crops.

that there is a smaller crew required
in thrashirtg from t he stack, there
seems to be little to this argument.
The benefit to the grain cannot be

U-B0AT PRISONER
Tells EXPERIENCE
Officer of ILL., Fated u. S. S. Neptune,
Gives Story of Remarkable Ad-
venture and Recovery

Richard Cannon, chief petty officer
of the U. S. S. Neptune, whose dra-
matte capture at sea by a German
U-Boat and subsequent experiences
aboard the submarine and in a Ger
man prison hospital, thrilled the en-
tire country, is still another world

Cannon's adventures were so harrow

petely shattered, but after months of
suffering he has now regained the
wonderful health that enabled him to
pull through his adventures alive and
is today the same strapping two hun
dred pound fighter that embarked on
the ill-fated collier.
But let him tell his own story:
"When the Neptune was torpedoed
off the Irish coast" said Mr.. Cannon,
who now lives at TOT E. Lafayette,
Tampa, Fla, II had my right leg and
five ribs broken by the explosion, and

patriated and finally got my dis
charge in February, 1910, I was little
better than a living skeleton I had
no appetite and my digestive system
was so upset that what little I did
eat always gave me severe pains in
the pit of my stomach. Before
joined the service I never knew what
nerves were, but after what I went
through my nerves were so shattered
that I couldn't keep still a minute,
and the slightest thing upset me. For
six months 1 continued in this condi-
ton, unable to pick up strength, and
so weak that any attempt at work
tired me out completely. I began to
think that I should never be a well

necessarily. The wheat which shat.
tiers out at thrashing around the ma
chine and stack, can most of it be
saved, but wheat lost in the field is
not only wasted, but cause trouble
by growing a volunteer crop which is
often undesirable.
Great care should be taken to insure
that the thrashing machine is well
cleaned of smutted grain from other
farms, or undesirable mixtures or
weed seeds, and it is therefore a good
idea to run the machine empty for
some time, going ove it and cleaning
It thoroughly.
Marquis wheat which has become
the standard for the Northwest, should
be kept pure and undefiled. Wheat
is always likely to become mixed If
not watched, and mixed wheat is never
so profitable as the one good variety.

r A CAR

(sprin: Wheat Crop Improvement Service. }
The price of wheat this fail depends
largely upon the number OF cars which
are available for the handling Of the
crop. The fact that a great deal Of
last years winter wheat crop has been
held in the country on account of lack
Of cars, is likely to affect the price of
the new spring wheat crop.
The farm bureaus have a problem
here. If chere is u a shortage, which
now seems probable, immediate plans
must be made to store the grain either
in the elevators, which will likely be
o~veriowiLg, or in homemade bins or
IN the stack. All of these methods
are good. bur storing on the farm IL

BEST CROPS ARE SECURED FROM
FALL FLOWING,
BY Andrew Boss, Minnesota; Chief
Agronomy and Farm Management.

(Spring Wheat Crop Improvement service.)
1t Is a matter Of common observa-
ton that the best crops are nearly al
ways secured on the early fall-plowed
land. Just why the early blowing gives
the best crops is not always easy to
explain. One cause undoubtedly Is
that the fall-plowed land lies open and
porous, ready to receive the fall rain
and absorbs a larger amount Of mOis-
ture than unplowed land. The early
blowing also gives time for the land to
settle again before spring and allows
it to become compact enough to re-
establish good capillary action, thus
getting moisture to the plants when
moisture is needed.
Moisture control Is an important
factor iE. plant growth. Another fac
tor hat is influential in crop growth
