SPOTsWOOD. Oct. 13:-Signs of
bus services leading from James

minal point were indicated this
morning by several automobile pro-
prietors who are preparing arrange
ments for a continuous service be-
tween here and South River as in

in top-top condition.
Bad roads put the bus service out
of commission last year. The re-
ceipts were not sufficient at the time
to pay for the depreciation of their
buses, giving the terrible condition
of the road as the only reason for
~suspending the service.
Increased traffic is expected with
the highway Improvement which
will make the venture for the bus
operators a profitable one accord

"All things whatsoever We would

Yes, the Golden Rule; Mark 7:12.
Under the laws in some states

as a common enemy can be driven
off as a burglar. without regard to
how they are gotten rid of or scat

common law rule.
Subsequent decisions show
changes in the old rule in many
states; the recognition of the princi-
pie of the Golden Rule. This, in eff
feet, mean the preservation of the
right to dispose of surface waters,
but the method of their disposition
must be such as to show proper re-

TWo-Year-0Id Steers Prove to
Be Most Satisfactory.
Feeding Linseed Meal and Glover or
Alfalfa in Addition Is Recon-.

Is Not Favored.

Experimental work by the Univer-

ture has showll-
That highly satisfactory beef can
be produced from two-year-old steers
by feeding the corn as silage, together
with linsecd meal and clover or al
falfa hay, instead of full feeding on
shelled or ear corn.
That the price of feed and the pre-:
MUM on heavily fat cattle during the
past five years has not warranted full
feeding over long periods. when cattle.
which are two years or more OF age
are used.
That one acre, yielding 40 bushels
of corn, or eight tons of silage, if fed
as silage, together with 1.733 pounds
, of linseed oil meal and 1910 pounds
of alfalfa lray, would prepare for mar
ket 2S steers, or would produce under
the foregoing circumstances 75G.S
pounds of beef and lib pounds of
pork, as compared with 0.S7 steers
prepared for market by an acre OF
corn, fed as shelled corn (full feed)
and silage, together with 30S.2 pounds
Of linseed meal and 1852 pounds Of
alfalfa hay, or which produced 29l.
pounds Of beef and GS.5 pounds OF
Tork. ...
That the pork produced behind cat

seed meal and hay is negligible
quantity.
That IT. is possible to change catt:e
from corn silage to dry feed, but that
the Increased cost of grains frequently
makes it inadvisable.
That ration Of corn silage, al
falfa hay and linseed meal with the
past five years prices, produced gains
at about two-thirds to three-fOurths
Of the cost per pound as the cost

Different farmers have different
ways and means of caring for their
barnyard manures. but suffice 1t to
say, do not let 1t become exposed to
the rain nor the sun; If possible, keep
1t piled up in order to prevent the es-
cape of gases which are rich in plant
food; as often as practicable, haul the
manure to the fields, scatter and i'm
mediately plow 1t under. However, If
manure is to be plowed under, the
planting Of crops on that land should
not be too long delayed, because water
from rains cause much Of the soluble
plant food TO leach out If there is no
available growing crop to take up this

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture.)
One Of the worse results of the wet
and inclement weather of fall and
early winter Is the disease of chickens
commonly called roup. 1t resembles
the more malignant forms of influenza
in larger animals and in man, attack
Ing principally the membranes lining
the eye, the sacks below the eye, the
nostrils, the larynX and the trachea.
1t is attended with high fever and Is
very contagious, but the nature of the
germ is not yet known. However, it
is known that contagion is brought
into the poultry yard by infected birds.
Outbreaks Of roup in the fall occur
most commonly where the growing
chickens are Overcrowded in the coop
or where the coops are not waterproof
or are poorly ventilated. Sometimes
these are birds purchased from other
tiocks, and sometimes they are birds
from the nome flock which have been
on exhibition and exposed to conta-
gion. Again, they are wild birds or
pigeons which fly from one poultry
yard to another.
Delicate birds have very severe at

INVESTIGATION IS
Big DIVIDEND PAYER

"The corn belt farmer spends too
much time riding Il corn cultivator is
the statement made recently by IL. l..
Walster, agronomist at the North Da-
kota Agricultural Experiment Station.
DR.. Walster declares that crop rotation
is the only means Of securing worth
while yields of North Dakota wheat
and corn. He quotes experiment sta
tion reports from Illinois showing the
yields in different corn-growing rota-
tions. Three systems Of rotation are
listed:
First, corn, one-fourth of the time;
rotation plan; wheat, corn, oats
legnme. In IL years the average crop
of corn per acre was 55.S bushels.
Second, corn, one-half of the time;
rotation plan: corn, corn, oats, legume.
First year. after legume brought yield
of 53.3 bushels per acre and second
year after legume brought 4G bushels
per acre.
Third, corn, three fourtls of time;
rotation plan, corn, corn, corn, legume.
First year after legume brought 47.S
bushels, second year brought Al bushels
and third year, 34.4 bushels to the acre.
In explanation DR.. Walster says the
first system may be called good
diversified system and the third system
is an Illinois brand of cash-crop farm
ing. Diversitication leads to increased
yields. even in case of an fntertileld
crop grown in the rich brown silt loan
soils of Illinois.
He then turns to North Dakota's
wheat fields. In the spring of 1913 two
pieces of land at the North Dakota
experiment station were set aside for
growing wheat. One field has grown
wheat every year for the past nine
years. the other is cut up into -four
plots and only one-fourth OF it has
grown wheat each year. Both fields
had been given ordinary good culture
previous to 1913. The land growing
wheat every year for the past nine
years has returned an average yield OF
ia bushels to the acre, the land ro
tated so that only 0ne-fourth Of it was
in wheat each year has returned al
average yield of 2O.S bushels during
the same period, showing an increase
of 1913 per cent due to rotation alone
Figures taken from results Of thi:
experiment show that one acre under
rotation has produced in nine years
what the continuous cropped acre ma!
be expected to produce in about l:
years. The rotation practiced was
corn. wheat, clover. and oats.
DIR. Walster draws the conclusion
g, from this experiment that 'soils have
an inherent right to refuse to produce
under either continuous corn culture
or continuous wheat culture. Rotation
is prescribed as a form of rest from
either wheat or corn"

WINTER SHELTER FOR GEESE
Shed Open on South Side With PIent,
of Straw or Shavings Is Most
Satisfactory.

Except in stormy weather or in the
winter mature geese seldom need
house. A shed open on the south side
a poultry house, or barn usually i
provided by breeders in the North, and
is used by some breeders in the South,
says the United States Department OF
Agriculture. COOps, barrels, or some
other dry shelter should be provided
for the young goslings. But wherever
they are the geese should have clean
place. with plenty Of straw or shaw
ings for the floor during the winter.

DAIRYING LIKE GOLD DIGGING
(By Max Morgan, Dairy Extension Spe-

(By Max Morgan. Dairy Extension spe-
cialist, North Dakota Agricultural
College)
Shut YOUR eyes for moment and
imagine two men-Gne is digging with
the expectation Of finding gold; the
other is merely digging. Can't you
imagine how different these two men
feel and look and work and act? The
former sees reward and happy fu-
ture at the end of his labor, the latter
sees neither.
And so it is with the man who milks
ordinary cows every day and pays
little attention to the feed, care and
management of them. They are fed
but half they need ana this not not
always to their liking or for best re-
suits. The bedding consists of bare
dirt, plank or cement floors with at
times few wisps of straw scattered
over enough to about make IL nest for
setting hen. The time OF day for
milking is not regular and instead of
fitting the dairy work into the days
work, it is carried on when nothing
more can be done before darkness.
Compare this man to the one VINO
