Sunshine Wanted

What the Vermont strawberries
needed was a little sunshine to put
the sweetness in them. The rasp-
berries are now coming along fast
on a water foundation, but they,
too, need a little admixture of sun
shine in order to give them a dis
tinctive flavor. Sunshine the farm
crs need also to cure their hay. In
! fact sunshine will help out great
many people.-Barre Times.

in sufficient quantity to settle OF
pack your mulch. Do not cultivate
when wet. At the risk of reducing
your yield do not let the surface get
too dry before cultiyating. Cultivate
only when necessary: During the
prolonged hot, dry periods of July
and August, watch the top of the
firm soil beneath the mulch. If it in
dicates dryness cultivation is neces-
sary regardless of rain or weeds. Do
not let the weeds grow. A few weeds
may reduce the yield of wheat very
materially. Do not figure on Is
or 80 bushel crop; try for so or TO-.
You can get it if you do the work
right and timely.
The greatest draw pack today In
our agricultural development is the
lack of effort on the part of the far
mer to know his soil, and how by
tillage, to increase his crop yield. We
are advancing rapidly in all other
lines, why not this? This means more
in dollars to you than any other ques-
tion today"

tor shovels in this top soil now made
firm by the rain, nearly or about two
inches deep. This will make close
TO. or about, three inch loose mulch
and if reasonably fine, and of gran
ular form, you have started right.
1t is very desirable to cultivate
when the soil is quite moist; not wet,
AT the point of separation. The
loosened portion soon dries out as
deep as cultivated, leaving the top
of the firm soil below the mulch very
moist, carrying the high percentage
of capillary water. This is indeed
a very desirable condition; one that
if carried through the heated part of
tbe summer up to seed time means
much to your crop next year, for it is
this precise condition that promotes
YOUR greatest bacterial growth.
"Your farm is your work shop. The
ton six or eigb. irctes of your soil
is YOUR machinery; the production of
which is just in proportion to the
manner in which you supply the fuel
and keep up the steam.
Cultivate after every rain that falls
The Wolf Point herald., 1922-07-13

The time has arrived or is close
at hand when the quantity of youl
rainfall is uncertain. Flowing that
may be done from now on must be
done very carefully. First exercise
care to keep the shallow mulch loose
ahead of the plow to conserve all
the moisture possible. Follow the
plow closely with subsurface packing
AS the long hot dry days will quick
ly take out the moisture it is absol-
utely vital to promptly settle down
the soil to retain all the moisture
possible. Should there be consid-
cradle period of time after the plow-
ing without rain there will be little
bacterial action. If the blowing can
have on it a good fair rain as ex-
planned further on the condition will
be much more ideal. Care and pre-
cision along the lines mentioned here
may easily make a difference of from
ten to twenty bushels in your yield.
Greater Increase Is Possible
If the farmers of Montana could
only appreciate how much the yield
of their good soils with the average
rainfall they do get could be made
to reach annually under proper soil
preparation, cultivation and seeding,
there would be far less of your land
for sale, and many more happy farm
homes in the state. Added bushels
is added wealth to you, your state
and nation.

ing process means a crop only every
other year, consequently you must
charge up two years taxes, also two
years interest on your investment,
and the cost of growing and market
ing, to the one crop and the balance,
if there be any, is your profit. But,
please do not forget that by this
every other year cropping there is one
fitting instead of two, one seeding
instead of two, one harvesting in
stead of two, and also less than one
fifth the amount of seed commonly
used for two crops is required; but
providing you proceed correctly in
your tillage work, these four items
of economy are of little consequence
compared to the material increase in
both the yield and quality of the
crop grown over the every year plan.
II have repeatedly seen fifty bu-
shells of wheat per acre and as high
as sixty-two and one-half grown on
summer titled land, when adjoining
fields under the more common meth
ods, with the same soil, rainfall and
sunshine, would make only ten to
twenty bushels. The secret of the
larger yields as against the smaller
ones were due to timely tillage of
the right kind and less seed per acre.
When to Cultivate
Cultivation should follow each rain
as soon as the free water has per-
colated down and the soil Is simply

 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of wo- men have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous. irritable and may be Respondent; it makes anyone so.
 But hundreds of women claim that pr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restor- ing health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to over- come such conditions. { Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kid. ney, liver and bladder medicine will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to pr. Kilmer x Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sample size bot tie by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores..
