AMERICAN HOUSES IN EUROPE
Ex-Immierants Who Return to Their
Native Lands Copy Structures

In every country we visited the
changes in housing were the most OBJ
vious expressions of changed stand
ards of returned immigrants.
In Slovakia, next TO the eg-lmmi-
grants old tiny dwelling, stands new
one, built with money he earned in
America. Looking down on an Ital-
ian village, one can pick out from the
roofs the houses Of Americana. In
parts of southern Italy, one now sees
hillsldes dotted with small detached
dwellings, telling the tale of savings
as well as the liberation from the old
custom of huddling together In towns,
remnant In Italy, as in other coun-
tries, from the days of brigandage.
Unfortunately, the new American"
houses are often unattractive-too like
the models they copy. Occasionally,
however the reverse Is true. One ce-
ment house, for instance, has proper
tions much like an old New England
colonial farmhouse. And. sure enough,
the owner had patterned it after the
dwelling on his employers farm In
Massachusetts.

SOY BEANS Will

One Of the Best Forage Plants
Among Legumes and Exceeds
Others in Yield of Seed.
PREPARED SOIL IS ESSENTIAL
Application OF Fertilizer on Fertile
Land Usually Is Not Profitable
Crop Is Greatly Benefited
BY Lima

The soy bean is one of the best
forage plants among the legumes and
1t exceeds any Of the others in yield
Of seed, says w. @. Etherdge of the
Missouri College of Agriculture. 1t
does not require a particular kind OF
soil. 1t will withstand great deal
of moisture and succumbs only when
water stands on the land for consid-
erable time. On the other hand it is
decidedly drouth-resistant.
For its best growth. the soy bean
requires better preparation of the land
than is necessary for cowpeas, because
1t cannot compete with weeds and
grass so well as cowpeas.
Fertilizer Not Profitable
The application of fertilizer to the
soy bean crop on either fertile or high
ly fertile land usually Is not profitable.

Carrier tracks serve the silage from
the silo along the entire length Of
the center feed alley. Two hay chutes
open from the floor above at handy

FEEDING BEES SUGAR SIRUP

When It is necessary to feed bees

taken to prevent them from drowning
Pour sugar sirup into a shallow dish
or pan and cover with cotton cloth
large enough to drop over the edge
Of the dish. This allows the bees to
crawl over the surface without being
given a bath or drowning in the sirup.

that the cloth is loose enough to settle

consideration. An excellent idea In
connection with the matter lof con-
serving fertilizer would be to have a
concrete manure pit at the proper dis
tance from the end of the barn.
Assuming that 50'cows are sheltered
In this barn, concrete manure pit
1OS feet by 20 feet by 3 feet would
serve as a conservator Of this fer
tilizer, and could be emptied at three
month periods. A recent authority
states that conservative estimate
of the fertilizer value saved by this
no-waste method is in the neighbor-
hood of So per ton, at least.
There are structural problems con-
nected with the erection of building
of this nature which suggest securing
the services of reliable architect or
builder specializing IN this field. There
are economies possible through the
intelligent choice and use of timber
and planklng in varying dimensions
and proportions, and many other de-
tails which could serve 10 make the
dairy barn most profitable in every
way.
For instance, in place of cement
floored stall, some of the cork brick or
other block now popular could be laid
down, adding greatly to the comfort
of the cows. Again. in localities
where boulders are plentiful the first
floor wall construction could be of this
type of masonry. with the undeniable

But on poor land good returns will

There is seldom any profit in applying
commercial nitrogenous fertilizers TO

from the air through the aid Of nitro
gen-gathering bacteria on its roots.
Although the soy bean Will grow on

fact, under nearly all conditions a
moderate application of lime will
usually give good returns.
incubation Will Benefit.
Although on fertile soils incubation
Is not necessary for q thrifty growth,
II will usually benefit the crop, and on
poor land it is essential for even
moderate growth. For sections into
which the crop Is newly introduced, re-
gardless of the type of soil, artificial
incubation will nearly always give
good returns. Inoculatlng material,
and instructions for its use may be
secured at cost from the Missouri Col
lege Of Agriculture, Columbia, Mo.
The best date for planting soy beans
will of course vary with the locality,
but 1t is safe practice to put in the
crop about two weeks later than the
average time of planting corn. The
depth Of planting is an important point.
The seed must be planted shallow or
poor stands will result. Experiments
have proved that two inches is the.most
favorable depth.
For a crop planted in rows three
feet apart-the best method where a
seed crop is desired-15 to 20 pounds
Of seed will be required to the acre.
A broadcasted or drilled crop--for hay
will require 60 to 90 pounds to the
acre.
