AGRICULTURAL NOTES

At a number of meetings held in
the northern part of the county the
county agent presented the mois-
ture conservation as comprised in the
summer tillage system. AS result
a number of the farmers are keeping
the weed growth controlled in fields
where stands were not secured of
cane or corn. These fields will be
planted in August or September to
winter wheat. This will be fair
showing of the results of tillage but
not as fully as early plowing would
show.

country surrounding will be that por-

graded up practically level and with
the sand it will be a regular boule-
ward. Many roads, where they have
had to be graded up to a considerable
extent. have been made too rounding.

Photography of Words

DevauN-Charbonnel. the French
scientist. has photographed the yaria.
uon of current in microphonic cir
cult by the aid of Blondal oscillo-
graph. The photographs are repro
ductions Of the syllables pronounced
by human voice. and it is expected
that they will be of use in the soiu-
ion Of various problems in telephony
In studying the impression made by
syaiables the experimenter found that
each syllable il composed of 30 to 4C
complete vibrations. The beginning and
the end of the syllables are modifie
by the Impressions of the consonan,s $
but the notifications cover only fouI
or five periods. so that each syllable
has 20 to 30 regular vibrations cores
ponding to its vowel The method
permits the study of the higher har,
monies, which give character to words

Goldfish is said to be the world s

prolific. 1t has been asserted that one
weighing 75 pounds will contain over
100000 eggs. Perhaps the tarpon is
one of them, for il is large fish with
very fine roe. The cod is practically
omnivOrous. finding means to supply
great schools wherever food of any
sort is found. 1t is found in many

some hens lay fifteen eggs in a wear
whiie others in the same flock ,sv ,wo
hundred and fifty or more. A hen
must lay eighty eight eggs in a wear
70 pay for her keep. The hens in
colorado average ninety eggs in a wear
"hieh proves that there are more good
mems than poor ones in the state. Ac-
corolng to the poultry authorities at
the Colorado Agricultural College, the
proportion of good hens to poor ones is
Two to one. For every two hens that
are self-supporting, there is one star
boarded. There are l,5OO, 600 hens in
this state. LOCO, 600 good ones and 500
900 culls.
II costs on an average, two dollars a
year TO feed, house and care for hen.
These 5O0,0oO cnll hens must cost the
farmers Of Colorado 81, 900, 600 year
Again our agricultural authorities, who
have experimented with the product
on OF culls and have an abundance of
data to back up their statements, say
that these Gull hens just pay for half
their keep. Therefore, we conclude
that If the culls could be disposed of
our farmers would save $500, 900. They
would also have the cash which the
Gull hens would bring on the market
The extension Department of Colorado
College, Fort Collins, will send infor-
nation on culling free of charge to any
