Heavy Load
the cOrnbet farmer is just as dis
eliminating now that the automobile
Is common on the farm. In fact he is
more so. The matter of few miles
extra travel is not of great moment
AS the car comes to be more and
more the medium of that daily COM
merce between the farm and town, the
Importance of good roads comes to be
more clearly seen. The town has rec
ognized it. In order to hold this in
creasing but vital trade the town must
bid in terms of fair bargains and good
roads-and not least in smooth, allur-
ing highways where few distractions
to fair speed are encountered.
Where the farmer buys his daily or
weekly supplies he generally buys his
larger items Of machinery and farm
equipment. 1t Is up to the town that
desires to live to recognize the prob
lem of the good road. To ignore 1t Is
to destroy the town. The farmer does
not travel the bad road except under
cOmpulsiOn.

GREEN FEED OF IMPORTANCE
Not Only Assists to Supply Necessary
Amount of Vitamines but Also
Acts as Regulator.

With hens being confined to the pens
II Is important that plenty Of green
food should be given. Not only does
II help to give the required amount
of yitamines but it also Is beneficial
as a regulator. The nearer one makes
the hens feel that they still have
spring conditions, the better egg pro-
duction can be expected. Cabbage,

SPREAD MANURE FOR GARDEN
Scattered Sometime Before
Making Seed Bed.

Barnyard manure should be hauled
out and spread sometime before the
earliest plants Of the garden are
planted. A good plan is to spread the
manure, then turn the land again or
disk it and leave till time to make
the seed bed. Coarse barnyard manure
requires some time to decompose,
hence 1t should be spread In time to
incorporate with the soil. Begin the
garden preparations.

inches apart. The grain drill set to
sow about one and one-half bushels of
wheat to the acre will be found most
satisfactory If grown for silage with
corn, the corn and cowpeas can be
sOwn in one operation, using the Ordi-
nary corn planter. If cowpeas are
sowp in corn at the last cultivation,
the common practice is to sow the
seeds broadcast at the rate of to l "
bushels to the acre and cover them
with a cultivator.
Another Method.
Another method is to SOW with a
one-horse wheat drill at the rate Of
about 45 pounds to the acre, sowing
two or three rows Of cOwpeas between
the rows of corn. Cowpeas and corn
are sometimes sown thickly together
for hay with excellent results, using
about one-half to one bushel Of corn
and one bushel of cowpeas to the acre.
However, when corn makes very
heavy growth cOwpeas will not give
very good results on account Of the
shade and lack Of moisture.
The quantity Of seed to be sown to
the acre varies according to the
method Of sowing. With rows "a to
40 inches apart, about 80 to 40 pounds
of seed to the acre will be required.
When sown broadcast for hay. green
manuring or soiling about % pounds
of seed to the acre will be ample.

wet soil, cOwpea seed will either rot

sowing, however, Is at least 30 days

The time of sowing Will depend

manuring, pasturage or hay, cOwpeas
sown as late as the first of August In
the South will make considerable
growth. When cowpeas are to follow
wheat or oats, they should be sown at
the earliest possible moment after the
crop Is cut.
Rate Of Sowing.
The best method for the production
of seed Is to SOW in rows about three
feet apart, with the seeds from two to
three inches apart in the row. AL
though corn planter may be used for
sowing in this way, the most practical
method is to use the ordinary grain

EDUCATION MAKING
GREATER PROGRESS

should be mentioned in the educa-

aroused interest in education itself,
Mrs. Fannie Fern Andrews of Bos-
ION, told the National Education AS
ISOLATION here today.
eve might almost speak of an ed
vocational renaissance" Mrs. An
drews said.
Educational leaders have become
leaders in educational progress;
they have forced the public to recog-
nize the Importance of education in
a new and different light; they have
established the belief that educa-
ton has social, economic and politi-
cal value-that the stability of the
country rests on education" Mrs.
Andrews added. "In the midst of
economic depression and world up
heaval, they have demanded more
money for the schools, and they have
convinced the public that the great
est financial asset of country, re-
gardless of the moral asset, is an
educational people.
"a review of the educational leg
islation during the past year is a !
striking evidence of this belief. The
country cannot afford not to spend
money for the adequate education Of
all its children.
"The determination to give every .
boy and girl chance, to see that the
eleven million rural school children
have opportunities commensurate
with the urban children, is a leading
part of the program in this educa-
tional revival, and it is the educators
who are forcing this problem on the
people, and demanding the necessary
funds for the realization of their
plans. They have made their own
program, which covers every phase
of the educational problem, from the
Kindergarten through the university
and they are determined to carry it
through. Where is virility in the
educational world today that was
hardly perceivable five years ago.
"Our school men and women have
learned the lessons of the war. New
projects and new methods voice the
needs of the new time. New courses
in history are about to be published.
Schools are wing with each other
for the best citizenship courses.
There has never been such SER
lous consideration of the meaning of
and our school people are
