NEED OF BUSINESS PRACTICE
Many Cooperative Associations Have Failed Because of Lack of Flnan-
 clal System.

Lack of proper financial systems has been the cause of failures in many cooperative associations, say special ists of the bureau of markets, United States Department of Agriculture, who feel that now is an opportune time for emphasizing the need of good business practice among farmers.
 The bureau of markets has much information on systems of accounts and business practice for cooperative associations, and either directly or through extension workers 1t is pre- pared to give assistance in installing good accounting systems for cooper ative grain companies, cotton ware houses, country creameries, fruit shipping associations, egg circles, CO., operative cheese manufacturing and marketing associations, and cooper ative grain elevators.
 Short courses of study ifr market ac- counting have been prepared and are used in a number of colleges through out the country, and are also given at field points where marketing as- sociations are numerous. Systems of accounts are furnished upon request, and advice and assistance relative to their installation is given through cor respondence and by means of bulle- tins especially prepared for this pur- pose.

 The home shown here may prove n real inspiration to families who are anxious to own a home they can call their own. It is a charming home of seven rooms and sun parlor. The ex- terior design is very attractive and distinctive and suggestive of n pleas ing quaintness and hospitality that will appeal to all homelOvers.
 It has many characteristics of the Colonial type of home-suggested in the white pillars supporting the over hanging roof, the ground level front porch, the small-paned windows with shutters, and the roof dormer with shingle sides. The lower portion of this delightful home Is stucco while above the first floor shingle siding Is used. The roof is odd-shaped, being part hip and part gable.

DRAINAGE niaKES
 WET LANDS GOOD
Too Much Moisture in Soil Re- tards Cultivation and Reduces
 Yield of Crops.
PLANTING ALSO IS DELAYED
Drains May 5e Either Open n!tches or Tile or a comblnatI1n of Both First Make Careful Survey
 and Examination.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 The effect of too much moisture is readily apparent In farming wet area, although persons not acquainted with drainage do not always recognize the presence of too much water in soils that are not saturated, say spe- cialists of United States Department of Agriculture. The low part of the field Is not ready for blowing and planting as early in the spring as the higher parts; hence, unless the spot Is to be abandoned, the farmer either must finish the task another day or leave the whole until such time as the wet place can be worked. Plant ing on all or part of the field Is then delayed frequently seven to ten days later than on land better drained.
 Undralned Land Slow to Warm Up.
 The wet ground is cold too, and the seed in it sprouts more slowly. The difference between the two parts or the two fields continues to grow as the season advances; the undralned land frequently cannot be cultivated until several days after heavy rains, and again coldness retards crop growth, as in the spring. The difference in temperature may be six to ten degrees between the drained and undrained soil. The effect of later planting and slower growth must be apparent in the harvest, especially where the growing season Is cut short by frost. On field not uniformly we'll drained the crop will mature unevenly, and not only will the yield be impaired in amount, but if uneven in quality the crop will be rated for market at q low valu".

LIQUID MANURE IS HELPFUL
Of Particular Va"e in Garden When Vegetables Do Not Make
 Proper Growth.

American farmers, generally, are not familiar with the great value of liquid manure, and the way to apply it. It is exceptionally helpful in the garden and especially when any par ticular vegetable Is not showing the proper growth. When any plants seem weak and standing still, an applica- tion of liquid manure once a week for a few weeks will work changes that will seem almost miraculous. Liquid manure Is a reviver of dying plants, for it supplies nutrition in an easily assimilated form. It may be easily provided, and should be provided for every garden.

 A year ago people were interested Tn automobiles, silk shirts, theaters, and luxuries. Easy come, easy go" was the spirit that guided their ac- tiOns. They did not think of the more substantial things of life and paid the price of their fly-by-night pleasures willingly. High-priCed apartments were in demand because even un- skilled workers were making enough money to pay the rent that was de- handed. Every one seemed anxious to got good taste of the high life.

 As a result these same people who year ago did not have a thought about owning their own home. who could not be bothered tending to fur naces or moving a lawn, and must have their janitor service, are now seriously considering a little bungalow or home of their own. They have awakened to the stern realization that they have wasted their years and money paying rent. This money could have been invested In a home. Only hen the stern reality is forced home upon them are they seeing the light.

DON'T CROWD GROWING CHICK
Where Space Is Limited Youngsters Become Overloaded, Causing
 Outbreak of Colds.

Growing chicks must not be confined to crowded quarters at night. If they are, they will become overloaded and this, in turn, will lead to the develop ment of colds of which 1t Is very diff1- cult to rid the flock and which may be carried along through the summer and fall, causing a serious outbreak of colds in the laying flocks the fol lowing winter.
 How can one tell whether or not inc chickens have enough room? One of the best indications Is the condi- tion of the plumage. If the plumage is bright and clean 1t Is a good sign that the birds are doing we'll and have room enough. If the plumage is soiled by drOppings, 1t is an indication that there Is not room enough for all of them on the rOOsts, with the result that some are compelled to rest on the floor beneath the roosts and thus become sOiled.
 A trip to the growing houses after dark will also determine whether enough room is being provided. If there is not space enough so that all the chickens can find room on the roosts, the quarters are too crowded and some Of the chickens must be taken out. If all can find room on the roosts comfortably and if the house is well ventilated the quarters are not crowded and tEp youngsters N,i4ld do WI.

the two. The "blind ditches" of stones or poles covered with earth have been practically abandoned because they are not permanent, usually becoming clogged with earth in a few years. Open ditches are usually less costly 10 construct, especially when large ca pacity Is required, and water on the ground surface will flow into them more readily, but for the smaller drains tile has a number of advan- tages.
 Open ditches interfere with cultiva- tion, especially where large machinery Is used, but tile are buried deep enough to be out of the way of farming opera tions. The whole field may be cult vated when underdrains are used, but a system of open ditches necessarily takes up much tillable ground.
 Before any expenditures are made there should be a careful survey and examination to determine the source of the water to be removed and It's amount, the most economical arrange ment of the drains, the grades obtain able, the proper sizes of drains and the amounts of tile and of labor.
 Sometimes only few drains are needed in the lowest part of the field {; sometimes a uniform system is re- QuiYed wi,@ parallel lines underlying the whole area. In the latter instance experienced judgment Is needed to de- l eide what will be the proper depth and spacing for each kind of soil.
 Free .,w From Outlet. 1 Of prime ir' pOrtance is the outlet, 1 which not only must be the lowest point of the drainage system, but so located and arranged that it will dis charge water at the time when drain- age is needed and not be useless be- cause of high water in the outlet ditch or creek. re construction work should be carefully done, under the supervision of someone at least quail fled to soc t"t the tile are laid prop erly.

Lime may be applied either in the fall or spring. The proper method of application is important from an eco nomical standpoint. Scattering with a shovel Is Wastcful and the distribu- ton cannot h.
