STRAW CROP WORTH MILLION
AND HALF AS SOIL BUILDER.

Lexington, Ky-Fivc hundred thou
sand tons Of straw worth SO a ton, or
a total of s1,5O0,OOO, for building up
soils results from Kentucky's annual
wheat crop, according to R, E S,cln-
enson, soils specialist of the College
of Agriculture. Some idea of the value
of this material is to be gained from
the fact that straw stacks in Kentucky
hold more than half as much plant
food as all the commercial fertilizers
that farmers of the state NY. a ton of
It is worth more for building up farm
lands and making big crop yields than
a ton OF manure.
straw is to put it in stables where 1t
will soap up liquid manure and thus
save an enormous amount of plant
food that ordinarily is wasted Since
straw has as much plant food i'll ii as
stable manure, the quality of manure
is not lowered by liberal use of straw
for bedding. After the straw has been
tramped in the stables and thoroughly
mixed with the droppings of the ami
mails, the plant food that it contains
can be used more rapidly by growing
crops. It is wasteful to let straw
stacks rot and make only small
patches of land richer and at the same
time take up valuable crop producing
space Even If all the straw that is
produced in the state weer used for
bedding, it would not be enough to
keep all stables and feed sheds we'll
bedded with the present number OF
livestock being raised in the state.
1.-THE chief difference between straw
and manure as far as soil Improvement
| is concerned lies in the fact that straw
is hard and woody and decays slowly.
The plant food that it contains, there
fore can be used only at slow rate
by growing crops. On the other hand,
about half the fertility in stable
manure is quickly available with the
result that manure makes better
showing when used on crops.
"Good farmers preserve the straw
on their farms by baling it or stacking
It carefully. A good method for stack
ing baled straw is to RI the bales and
top the rick with q / all amount of
loose straw. When It is we'll preserved
in the stack, straw will furnish con-
siderable rough feed while the refuse
that is left makes first class bedding"

Those close to David Warfield say
that for twenty years he has been
working to get ready to play Shylock
as he played the part at the opening
performance the other night Of David
Belasco's new production OF THE Mer-
chant OF Venice" Well, It was worth
the twenty years. That is the general
verdict OF the audience. The play is
splendidly cast and the settings and
costuming made every one OF the
twelve scenes a magnificent spectacle.
But above everyone and everything
towers Warfield as a keenly intellect
ual Shylock, man OF worth and honor
among his own people, but embittered
by the malevolence OF the contemptu-
Gus Christian. 1t is undoubtedly this
great actors masterpiece.

BUSY CLUB MEETINGS IN
kENNEBEC FARM BUREAU

Monday and Tuesday of this week
were particularly strenuous DAYS in
the work Of the home demonstration
agent OF the Kennebec County Farm
bureau. Miss Helen L. Clark. With
MISS Alfredo Ellis, assistant State
club leader from Orono, Miss Clark
mas visited no less than seven clubs
In widely Separated parts of the
county in the two days.
On Monday they were present at
meetings of the Girls Sewing Club
In windsor, the Minnewawa Club in
Fassalboro, the Merry Maidens of the
same town, and the General Club in
Winslow. In the Minnewawa Club
the young girls are taking the "owp
your own room" project, and the
club has been selected as one of three
clubs in the State to try this project
before 1t is placed on a State wide
basis. The Merry Maidens are girls
OF ten and eleven. There meeting,
said Miss Clark, was conducted with
all the ability of the Senate. These
youngsters are engaged in the cook
ing and housekeeping project
a General Club at Belgrade &C.
cupied the next forenoon. In the
afternoon there was a Sewing Club
at Readheld, and the two days tour
closed In the evening at a meeting
OF the General Club in Farmingdale.
AT all the clubs the proper methods
or preparing the program for
years work was studied in detail.
Ilans for local contest in the form
of an achievement day" were also
discussed. This day is the one of the
year when the parents can see the
work which the children of the COM
munity have accomplished. At the
local leaders conference in April. it
was recommended that each club hold
such a local contest this fall.
The work of the clubs is divided
into ten projects. For the boys
there are six; sweet corn, flint corn,
gardening. poultry, pigs, and pota-
toes. The girls have lesser num-
Der and their activities are limited
to the fields of canning. housekeeping,
cooking. and sewing. At the January
meeting each Farm Bureau Commu-
nifty votes whether or not they want
ono Of these clubs in the neighbour
hood. If they decide that they care
to avail themselves of the benefits
of the plans, club leader is chosen
who starts the work for the year.
At present there are 1900 boys and
girls from the ages Of 10 to IS en-
rolled in these groups throughout the
state under the auspices of the var
ious Farm Bureaus. The gain has
been 1000 over the number of NOM
bors at tho same period last year.
In the sewing project clone, 1900
girls arc enrolled, an increase Of 500
in twelve months.
