The Whp-Poor- viii
BY ARTHUR EUGENE SMITH

From out the golden sunset
Nights starry flame is sent,
Borne on veering shallop
Above the leafy tent.
A few bright sunbeams lnger
Beside the dmpling rill:
While loud and clear again I hear
The blythe old whip-p oor-wil.
twas here 7 waited for YOU
With youth within my breast;
You came TO me with gladness
And robbed me Of my rest.
You took with you the brightness
But left with me the III;
And still sings on from woodlands lone
The blythe old whip-poOr-w
The FRA GRANGE NJ the flowers,
The glory Of the skies,
The heaving Of your bosom.
The sly glance OF your eyes.
The music OF your red lips
Al yes. they haunt me still
And vet he sings and perks his wings
The blythe old whip poor-will!
Although the cloud Of sadness
Il lifted from lifes blue
To me the years long shadows
sim take the form Of YOU!
And still my feet will wander.
Unbidden by the mill
To hear again the tender strain
or that old whip-poor-will.
Do YOU so fair and saint-like
within your haven OF light
Know OF the pain and sadness
That haunts my heart tonight?
You visit not Of my longing;
And now from Wonder hill
Soft falls the rain. and sings again
The blythe old whip-poor- will!

ACID PHOSPHATE ON MANURE
Shown coLcIusively That Addition
Has In Many Cases Doubled
Producing Power.

1t has been shown conc.usively that
the addition Of acid phosphate to ma
nure has in many cases doubled the
producing power Of the manure over
that not so treated, and In. no in
stance has the practice failed to pay
better than to apply the manure and
phosphate separately. The plan in
general use is to scatter some acid
phosphate over the manure In the
stalls every day, a good handful to
each animal of average size per day
being sufficient. The phosphate keeps
down the ammoniacal smell so COM
mon to stables, smell that Is proof
that the nitrogen In the form Of am
monia Is escaping, and the phosphate
prevents this loss. This matter has
been brought to the attention of
readers before, and sometimes we
wonder how many have paid any at
tention to 1t, or have put 1t into prac-
tice. No danger Of losing any of the
plant food, in the phosphate, for II
has been determined long ago that
phosphoric acid does not leach out OF
soil, hence to use 1t In the stables
and let It go out with the manure Is
the easiest and the safest way to
apply 1t.

TAKING INTEREST IN
STOCK IMPROVEMENT
West Virginia Active in Campaign
for Better SireS.
One Day 100 Enrolment Blanks Were
Filed by Owners Who Had Placed
Operations on Strictly Pure
bred Basis.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Unusual interest in live stock i'm
provement in West Virginia is evi-
denced by records of the Better sires
better stock" campaign conducted
by the various states and the United
States Department of Agriculture. In
one day recently West Virginia filed
with the department 100 enrolment
blanks, each filed out by a live stock
owner who had placed his breeding
operations on strictly purebred sire
basis for all kinds of stock kept. The
enrollments were from II counties,
This voluntary activity is Of addi-
tional interest in view of purebred
sire legislation which became effective
In West Virginia January /, 1923. The
state law requires that all sires, in
cluding stations, ja,ks, bulls, rams,
and boars kept for public service be
purebred and registered. Violations
are punishable by fine or imprison-
ment. Participation by West Virginia
live stock owners in the better sires
better stock" movement, according
to specialists In the bureau Of animal
industry, United States Department Of
Agriculture, Is an excellent indication
of favorable sentiment In support Of
purebred sire legislation.

Of Temperature.

II plants are kept growing at RAM
pant pace in the warm hotbeds right
up to the time they are to be trans
planted in the open garden they are
likely to be sappy and spindling. Hpr-
den them Off gradually as transplant
ing time approaches, give them a
breath of fresh air frequently, and do
not subject them to sudden changes of

will be less, the plants will start Off
much more readily and will remain

In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this
natural lubricant Is not sufficient.
Doctors prescribe Nujol because II

CUTTING POTATOES FOR SEED
Usually Growers Slice for Number Of
Eyes Rather Than for Any
Definite Size.

Many different ideas concerning cut
ting potatoes are held by farmers.
Usually growers cut for the number
Of eyes rather than for definite size
seed piece. Commercial growers know
that the size Of the seed piece is an
important factor In securing vigorous
plants and good stands. Experiments
have proved that as you increase the
size Of the seed piece you increase the
vigorousness Of roots and tops and
consequently the yield. With this in
mind pieces weighing about two ounces
or the size Of an egg are generally
recommended and planted by success
ful growers.

DANGEROUS GARDEN DISEASES
Il Pays to Carefully Examine Plants
Before Setting Outlook for
YeIIows on Cabbage.

Many dangerous diseases are car
ried into gardens on plants. 1t pays
to examine plants before setting them
in the garden. Cabbage plants, for
example, should be turned upside
down and examined carefully for a
disease known as yellows. which has
been common In midwestern gardens
during the last few years. Those with
yellow leaves are probably diseased.
Dwarfed. twisted leaves, with a dark
brown streak in the sap tubes, are
