caution to take is to plant the kafir as
soon as possible after the ground has
warmed up. If the seed bed is thor
oughly prepared there will be less
5trouble from weeds and the seed may
safely be put into the ground a week
81 SO earlier than if it is poorly pre-
pared. Seed planted early should not
be covered too deeply,

Hurry the Lambs Along.

The cheapest gains on lambs are
made before hot weather. Care and
feed expended to put the lamb crop
in marketable condition at the earli-
est possible date will pay good re-
turn.
First of all, the early prices are
higher. During the years 1914 TO
1921, inclusive, the monthly average
price paid for lambs was $13.42 in
March, $13.48 in April, $13.58 in May,
S12.26 in June, $12.37 in September,
$11.89 in October, and $11.99 in, No
vember.
Moreover, the parasites which cause
such heavy and often disastrousl oss-
es in the lambs in summer do not or
dinarily give much trouble until about
the middleo f June. And as for the
effect Of summer heat on spring
lambs, the following figures derived
from monthly weights on flock of
registered sheep under good care show
conclusively that gains are made more
slowly and consequently at greater ex-
pense after hot weather comes. The
average monthly gain on 81 lambs
during the seasons of 1917, 1918 and
1920 was 1871 pounds in May, 1873
pounds In June, and AZ pounds in
July.

Soil Management Demonstration

A permanent soil management dem-

way to Avoid Kafir worm injury

Way to Avoid Kaflr worm Injury
Some farmers experienced trouble
last year with kafir worm. Although
the injury was not exceeding great,
yet it was sufficient to warrant a lit
tie caution in regard to the growing
of kafir. The kafir worm confined its
activities to the later maturing vari-
eties or to the late planted fields.
There are two precautions to take to
prevent injury from kar worm: one
is to plaw all fieldstthat were in kafif
last year as early as the weather will
permit and as thoroughly as possible,
so as to bury the worms which have
lived over the winter. The other pre-

THREE SIMPLE RULES FOR
BATTERY CARE

l. Keep the solution a half-inch a.
bove the top of the plates to each
cell as needed.

A hydrometer reading of each cell at
intervals of two weeks will definitely
determine the state of charge. II a
partially charged condition is shown,
have the battery charged from an out
side source.
8. Keep the terminal connections
clean and tight. A thin coat of vase
lin will keep them clean. Inspect
your battery regularly and care for 1t
