CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER SIRES
More Than 5000 Persons Have Agreed
to Breed All Live Stock to Pure
bred Sires Only

The better sires campaign recently
passed the 5000 mark. This means
that more than 5000 persons have
agreed in writing to breed all live
stock kept on their farms to pure
bred sres only. 1t is one of the re-
suits thus far accomplished by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. in cooperation with the states
and county agents. In n systematic

to exterminate scrubs-especially
scrub sires-throughout the United
States. Breeders and owners of all
classes of live stock and poultry are
cooperating in the effort which even
tually will mean higher quality nv

GETTING PRODUCTS TO CITY
Object in Building Roads Should BE
to Enable Farmer to Get Best
Prices for Crops.

Since the use of public roads is
primarily in the transportation of
farm products and farm necessities.
the aim In building them should be
to serve the best business of the ma
tion. of which more than One-half is
farming. and the roads should form n
state system connected WIN the sys-
TENS in adjoining states.
This means that the road instead
of being from farm to one market,
is one from many farms to many mar
kets. BY cheap, quick delivery to
shining points such system will en-
able the farmer to have access to
competitive fharkets and thus at all
times to secure the best prices for his
produce.

Spread Manure in Winter
Winter is a good time TO spread
rough manure over the garden. This
serves double purpose, in that it
adds fertility to the soil and also pro
tects the soil from washing and blow
ing Heavy clay soils should be broken
up and left rough and lumpy before
applying the manure. The kind of
manure to use for this purpose is not
important, so long as 1t Is not filled
with weed seeds or trash of any kind.
Manure in which straw has been Used
for bedding can be taken direct from
the stable and spread on the garden
as d surface cover during the winter,
the rough part being either plowed I'M
der in the spring or raked off and put
in the compost heap. The finer part
remaining on the ground can be
worked into the top soil IN preparing
the seed bed next spring,
Compost Heap Helpful.
Compost made by piling up sods,
manure, and any material having fer
tilizing value will be needed in prepar-
ing special soil for seed beds and for
starting plants next spring. Now is
the time to make compost heap. The
manure, prepare level space by 8
feet. spread 2 or 3 inches of the
manure over this space, follow with
layer of sod which has been chopped
into pieces with a sharp spade. then
additional layers Of manure and sod
until all of the manure has been used.
AS rule, the natural rainfall dur
ing the winter will be sufficient to
keep the pile properly moistened, and
as spring approaches roof of boards.
or other covering, should be placed
over the pile so 1t will not be too wet
for use when needed When the time
comes to use 1t, the compost should be
cut from one end Of the pile with a
sharp spade. then thoroughly worked
over and screened before 1t is placed
in seed boxes or in the hotbed.
Experienced gardeners keep COM
post heap going in enc corner Of the
garden from one years end to another,
and all surplus manure and sod are
placed in it. AS consequence, these
gardeners always have a supply of
good loan for preparing special plant
beds or top-dressing a piece Of land
