TALK TO FARMERS
BY. T. F. Peck.
ROTATION OF CROPS.

y r.
We have found in feeding farm ami
mails that we get better results if we
feed a properly balanced ration. We
have also found, in growing crops,
that we get better results if we have
the proper elements of plant food IN
the soil. While there are many
elements of plant food entering into
the growth and maturity of plants,
our soils are abundantly supplied with
all but three of them-nitrogen, phos-
phorus and potash.
Nitrogen is the most expensive II
purchased in the form of commercial
fertilizer. But nature has made pro-
vision to forestall this expense if we
will comply with her laws. She has
provided a class of plants we call
legumes, whose roots go deep into
the ground. These plants can take In
nitrogen from the air and store it in
little nodules on their roots.
The non-leguminous plants cannot
take nitrogen from the air, but must
depend on the supply in the ground
for this necessary element in its
growth. In that we have fundamental
principle for crop rotation. Grow the
legumes to store the nitrogen in the
ground and follow with crops that de-
pend on the nitrogen in the ground
for their growth.
Among the legumes we have all the
different clovers, we have beans and
peas and alfalfa. We can store the
nitrogen by selecting the legume that
fits in with our plan of farming. Then
we can grow corn, wheat, oats, rye
barley, the grasses for hay, and they
will feed on the stored up nitrogen in
the soil. But we should net grow the
shallow rooted cross year after year
but rotate with legumes.
Crimson clover is legume and can
be grown as a winter crop and turned
under and have the land available for
money crop during the summer
The essential thing for us to remem-
Der is that we have the legumes OF
deep rooted plants that can take nj
trogen fro mthe air and store it in the
soil, and we have the the shallow root
ed plants dependent on the nitrogen in
the soil. To prevent the nitrogen sup
ply being exhausted in the soil it is
cheaper to grow the legumes to re.
store it than it is to buy the nitrogen
in the form of commercial fertilizer

The Key that Unlocks the Door to
Long Living.

The men of eighty-five and ninety
years, of age are not the rotound, well
fed, but thin, spare men, who live on
a slender diet. Be as careful as you
will, however, a man past middle age
will occasionally eat too much of
some article of food not suited to his
constitution, causing Indigestion OF
constipation and will need a dose of
Chamberlain's Tablets to move his
bowels and invigorate his stomach.
When this is done, there is no reason
why the average man should not live
to ripe old age. All Druggists.

A small area of high yielding cot
ton is what each average farm in
Henderson county needs. Thin land
will produce cotton but will not make
profit for the man that produces it.
This latter thing is what interests US.
1t sounds good to hear a man say that
he has made so many bales of cotton
but much better to hear a man say
that he does not have to sell his cot
ton to pay for high priced hay and
other things that he could have pro-
duced at home. There has never been
more critical time than just now for
the farmer in the cotton belt. We
must keep the acreage down to a
point so that the price will stay up.
There is no chance to do this as long
as we try to see how much cotton we
can have for the women and children
to pick. We believe in work for ALL
but we do not believe in work for all
to the extent of producing too much
of one crop and not enough of anoth-
er. Let us give more attention to
poultry.

haps you think that a man who has to
make living this way for a family
can't afford such things. No family
can have the best of health and not
have milk and butter at least. Doctor
bills are high and we believe that the
right kind of food will many times
save the doctor telling one that there
must be certain things eaten or the
patient will die. 1t is economy to use
these foods even though they look
high, and if produced at home they
cost les sthan Iowa fat backs. If you
want to do some one a real Christian
service, see that the family with no
COW gets one.

John Darlington is building sweet

capacity than is necessary for the

nesota. The man who puts off get

Rich Petty is one of the farmers
who planted his rows of corn wide
apart on thin land and put cowpeas
in the middles. He says that the corn
is not as good as it was last year but
it is good enough that he likes the
idea because he believes the combina-
ton will get more feed per acre with
the same labor. He also states that
meme of his thin land corn is quite so
good this year as it was last year. Of
course everyone will say the same
thing next year.
