A good homemade self-feeder for
poultry reported to the United States
Department of Agriculture by the
county extension agent of Knox coun-
ty, Indiana. is one made Of an old
mower wheel, barrel with both ends
knocked out, an old washtub and a
small platform Of rough boards. The
wheel is first laid on the platform.
The barrel is then placed on the
wheel. filed with dry mash. and the
tub turned over the top of it for a
cover. A barrel should be used which
leaves just enough space between its
edge and the rim Of the mower
wheel to allow room to feed. This
prevents the feed from being scratch
ed outside the rim.

maet was made.
Green beans on a representative
area in the various fields were pull.
ed and weighed in order to determine
the respective yield in each case.
The amount of nitrogen contained in
the yield was determined from the
fact that 1000 pounds of beans con.
tain about 6.S pounds OF nitrogen.
This was valued at 20 cents a pound.
Like other legumes, the beans took
two-thirds Of the nitrogen they pro.
duced from the air. In addition to
the nitrogen added to the soil by the
beans, considerable value is attach
ed to the organic matter which will
result from the decaying bean stalks

FARMERS TAKE UP TERRACING
TO SAVE AND REBUILD SOILS

Terracing farm lands promises to
fill an important place in preventing
further soil erosion on Kentucky
farms and rebuilding many of the
2,500,000 acres in the state that al
ready are badly washed and quilted,
according to Earl G. Welch, farm en-
gineeri1g specialist at the College
of Agriculture. Demonstrations to
show farmers how to terrace the roll
ing fields on their farms already have
been held in Crittenden, Hopkins,
Hart, Whitley and Powell counties,
while additional ones are scheduled
for IL other counties. One farmer in
Hopkins county pointed out to men,
bers of the college engineering sec
tion that the demonstration conduct
ed on his farm gave him a method
of saving soil for which he had been
looking Is years. Counties in which
demonstrations will be held In the
near future include Carroll. Washing
ington, Marion, Warren, Todd. Larue,
Laurel, Lee. Boone, Breckinridge,
Henderson, Mclean. Christian. Gallo
way. Knox, Boyd and Oldham.
Terracing has an almost statewide
appeal in view of the fact that prae-
tically the entire surface of Kentucky
is rolling and subject to serious dam
age through soil washing. Whether
or not terracing is advisable depends
upon thetype of soil and the extent
to which the land is rolling. In some
counties it may be advisable that all
the rolling farm lands be terraced.
The broad-base level-ridge terrace
is the type being recommended most
commonly. This form of terrace is
simply a ridge of earth about Is
inches high with a broad base that
Is thrown up around the contour of
the hill to catch the water and carry
II around at a low rate OF speed so
that no sediment is carried away. BY
this method the water is carried
around the h.il and turned into a
wood or sodded strip that will not
wash.
The cost of terracing, insofar as
the farmers time and use of horse
labor is concerned. does not amount
to more than 81 or s1.50 an acre.
while no special engineering training
is needed to lay out a terracing sys-
tenn. In planning a system, the tools
needed include a level. measuring
line and stakes, while the construcc-
tion requires only turning plow,
terrace drag or road grader. Details
of terracing are contained in Circular
No. 1923, which may be obtained free
by writing the Experiment Station at
Lexington.

80 CENTS IN SoY5EAN SEED
RETURN $3.50 IN NITROGEN

Investments for soybean seed
made this last spring at the rate of
80 cents an acre are returning Ken
lucky farmers from So to $3.50 worth
of nitrogen an acre in the bean crop
which is now nearing maturity
throughout the state, according to
Ralph Kenney, crops extension spe'
cialist at the College of Agriculture.
Eighty per cent of this nitrogen,
which is the most expensive plant
food element required by Kentucky
soils, will be returned to the land on
many farms by hogging off the beans
and the corn in which they are grow
ing. In addition, it is estimated
that the beans growing in the corn
will produce $50 pounds more pork
an acre than is obtained when corn
alone is hogged down,
Results being obtained in Carroll
county are said to be typical of those
DOih6 iCpOitC Dy LdluuClo III OluCi
sections of the state in showing the
value of soybeans for soil improve
ment. One farmer in that county,
Albert Davis, has soybeans of the
Hollybrook variety growing in COM
bination with corn that are estimat-
ed to contain $3.50 worth of nitrogen
to the acre, This field of beans and
corn has just reached the stage at
which fattening hogs can be turned
into it. Ito Sans beans growing in
another field of corn on this same
farm were estimated by County Ag-
ent G. c. Routt to contain $50
worth of nitrogen an acre.
The same variety of beans grow
ing ina field OF Boone county White
corn on the farm of w. M. Crouch in
Carol county have been estimated
TO contain s4.2S worth of nitrogen an
acre. This same combination on the
farm of Perry Gaines has produced
nitrogen having an estimated value
of $3.06 an acre. The low value OF
the nitrogen on this farm is attribut-

Produce Review

Fresh eggs are in lighter supply,
with the market absorbing fine stock
about as fast as received. A good
many eggs are being withdrawn from
storage and prices show but little
change during the week.
Better care during the summer and
more frequent marketing of eggs are
essential, if top prices are to be Sc
cured.
Poultry movement has been heav-
ier and indications point to a still
larger movement in the near future.
Selling prices are lower on live poul-
try in the eastern markets.
A large number of Leghorn chick
ems marketed was particularly no
ticeable AS buyers are discriminat-
ing in favor of the larger breeds,
lower prices are being paid for Leg
horns and the smaller varieties of
chickens.
The United States Department of
Agriculture report of August 21 gives
the following comparative stocks Of
poultry in storage on August L:
1920, O,67S.OOO pounds.
1s21-21,18s 900 pounds.
Excess, 100000 pounds.
While some sections report lighter
receipts of cream, due to the hot,
dry weather, the total amount of but
ter manufactured this week will show
but little decrease from the previous
week. The cold storage warehouses
in Chicago, New York, Boston and
Philadelphia show an increase in
their holdings over a week ago, in
dicating that production is still
ahead of consumption.
