LOTS OF GAS WASTED.

Enough gasoline is being wasted
annually in the United States through
preventable evaporation in storage
tanks, to run a Ford car 1,440,0 00,-
600 miles. the equivalent of more than
seven round trips between the earth
and the sun, according to an extensive
survey on conservation made by en-
gineers of -Manville, Inc, and
the United States bureau of mines.
The excessive losses by evaporation
of the more violate gasoline stored
in uninsulated tanks were demon
strated by series of special tests on
casinghead gasoline conducted at
bigheart and Drumright, Okla. The
test proved that the greater part of
these losses are preventable through
the use Of suitable incubation.
IL was further computed that the
775 uninsulated storage tanks in the
United Statese holding gasoline and
crude oil, each with a capacity Of 55,-
900 barrels, are losing by evaporation
more than 100000 gallons per
month, and that these losses are
largely controllable by the application
of proper insulation.

FINER FARMING.
BY H. A. Powers, Co. Agent

There is no weaker point in Hender-
son county's average system of farm
ing than that of pastures. Now is the
time to begin to plant to have pas
ture for next year. Next Spring will
be late, and in fact it will be Of little
use until next Summer to sow Herds
grass which is our greatest pasture
grass, excepting Burmuda grass. Lit.
tie preparation will be necessary
where cotton has been well cultivated
A mixture of Herds frass, Japan clo-
yer and white clover will increase the
fertility of the soil, prevent washing
and make a reasonable amount of pas.
ture. The grass should be sown now
and Japan and white clover sown ir
the Early Spring.

Elmer Duck has a field Of soy beans
that is worth the time of any farmer
in Henderson county to go and see it,
if he grows this crop. He has field
of corn which has mammoth yellows
on each side and down through the
middle he has Biloxi Red. The latter
bean shows that it is clearly ahead of
the mammoth yellow when it comes
to producing forage, but is not a
greater producer of grain. After four
years Of growing this new bean he is
sure that it has a place in our system
of farming. He has found that the
Biloxi Red does not shed its seed un-
til late spring and in this respect il
more desirable than the Mammoth
yellow.
