Richest Farm Lands Are
RAPIDLY Being Drained

Americas richest farm lands are
fast being drained of their productive
value. Nothing could be more threat
ening to our national prosperity than
this fact, as shown in a recent nation
wide investigation of farm soil condi-
tions. And unless more effort is
made to stop this waste it is certain
that not only the farmer will suffer
great losses, but our industries and
entire population will also pay a
costly toll-so much is food the basic
factor in everything.
For the soil which feeds us needs
its own special diet in order to keep
on nourishing plant growth. 1t SIM
ply gives out If 1t fails to get it. The
elements absolutely necessary to
healthy and productive soil are con-
stantly being sold in the form Of
crops. or leached away or washed into
the streams, leaving the land consider
ably poorer afterward. Soil must,
therefore, be constantly replenished
for successful yields.

The same standard of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every
bottle of Swamp Root.
It is scientifically compounded from
vegetable herbs.N
1t is not stimulant and is taken in
teaspoonful doses.
It is not recommended for everything.
It is natures great helper in relieving
and overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
troubles.
A sworn statement Of purity is with
every bottle of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.
If you need medicine, you should have
the best. On sale at all drug stores in
bottles of two sizes, medium and large.

Excessive Quantity of
Potatoes Not Advisable

An excessive quantity of potatoes
fed to mich cows sometimes produces
milk of poor flavor. However, they
may be used successfully when not
over 80 pounds of the cooked vege-
table are fed per head daily, or some
what less Of the raw potato.
Tests at experiment stations have
shown that the dry matter in corn
silage was superior to that in raw
potatoes when feeding heavy allow
ance of the latter. Butter from po-
tato-fed cows in the same tests was
found to be salvy, but there was no
indication that there is anything in
the popular belief that feeding pota-
toes causes cows to dry off.
Tests at the same stations have Civ
en- excellent results through the use
Of apple pomace silage. This feed
had no harmful influence on the cows
or their milk. For dairy cows the
apples themselves have about 40 per
cent Of the value of corn silage.

Fur1igation Stops
Grain-Moth Losses
Difficulty Was Found in OBJ
tanning Carbon Disulphid.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.l
Successful fumigation of over half
million bushels of stored wheat for
the Angoumois grain moth was ac-
complished by some 1900 farmers Of
York county, Pennsylvania, last year,
saving the heavy annual loss previous
ly experienced from this pest.
Through demonstrations which the
county agricultural extension agent
had conducted for several years the
practice of, fumigating the wheat was
well known as control measure.
Difficulty was found, however, in OBJ
tanning the carbon disulphid used for
the purpose. Following plan sug-
gested at community meeting early
in the spring of 1923, dealer was
found who agreed to purchase the
carbon disulphid in bulk, together
with quantity of screw-top cans each
holding enough to fumigate 100 BUSH
els of grain. On each can was pasted
label giving explicit directions for
use and care of the liquid. These
cans, after filling, were packed into
wooden cases holding "a cans each
and shipped to warehouses and stores
in all parts of the county. No OBJ
lection was made to carrying carbon
idisulphid in the small containers, as
there was no odor or loss from evap-
grafton, and the disagreeable task Of
filling containers was eliminated.
Through this arrangement fumigating
material in suitable containers and
In small quantity could be obtained
at so points in the county.

Six Different Ways to
Use Immature Corn Crop

There are six good ways of using
soft corn. With all indications point
ing to reduced crop of the corn
belts favorite grain, it will pay farm
ers where the crop is late, or was held
back by rain, replanting, ETC., to look
up information about them. Where a
man has live stock the situation will
not be quite so serious as where a
grain farmer tries to market or dry
out an immature crop. Here are ways
you can do it:
I. Put it into a silo.
2. Shock it in the field or barnyard.
3. Crib corn up to 25 per cent water
content.
4. Shredding.
5. Marketing.
6. Feeding.

EARMAN'yQTES

You can usually judge what kind of
farmer he is by the legumes he
grows.
There is still time to Gull the poul-
try flock. Why give space and feed
to poor fowls?
Root crops should be forced by
careful watering and hoeing if they
are to be of the best flavor.
In planning the farm work reserve
a few days for rounding up the ma
chinery scattered about the farm.
Fresh water mussel shell is equal
to oyster shell as source of lime for
laying hens, says the Department of
Agriculture.
Most of our pure bred live stock
came originally from England, but
America is now producing as good
cattle, horses, sheep and swine as
they do in the old country.
The reading farmer is the thinking
farmer, and the man who thinks
straight will usually find way out Of
his difficulties and gain ultimate pros
perity in the face Of discouragements
and backsets.
Train the colts, don't break Them
Many good horse has been spoiled
by breaking him when colt. Get his
mouth accustomed to the bit before q
harness is put on him. Be gentle and
patient. and you can make goo!
horse out of almost any colt.

Critical Study .... 4.
of Potato Seed
Use of Whole or Cut Sets
Has Served as Subject Of
Investigation for Years.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The use of whole or of cut sets for
seed in potato production has served
as a subject of Investigation for at
least a century and half and is still
moot question. A critical study Of
the literature on the subject leaves
the impression that much of the data
presented Is inconclusive, says the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. 1t also serves to convince the
reader that much depends upon the
manner in which the experiment was
planned and executed whether whole
or cut sets gave the most profitable
yield.
Most Profitable Size.
The successful determination of the
most profitable size of set to use and
whether It should be planted whole
or cut primarily involves careful
study of the proper spacing to give
to each size of set in order to obtain
the maximum yield.
Departmental studies covering sew
eral years show rather conflicting re-
suits, so far as the yield of primes, or
marketable potatoes, Is concerned.
The data, which is now published in
new bulletin just issued by the de-
partment as Department Bulletin
l248, clearly show that seasonal con-
ditions have a very definite influence
upon yield, particularly with respect
to the size of the tubers. Abundance
Of moisture and plant food through
out the growing season insures
maximum crop from whole and large
sized cut sets; whereas lack of these
two prerequisites favors medium-sized
cut sets, because few tubers are PRO-
duced, and in consequence they have
a better chance to reach marketable
size.
There is a definite relation between
the size of the set used and the num-
Der of stems and tubers produced to
the set.
Stem Frequency.
A study of stem-frequency correla-
ton shows that as the weight Of
whole seed increases from two to six
ounces the stem frequency shifts from
three stems In the case of two-ounce
sets to seven stems in the case of six
ounce sets. Halved seed shifts from
two stems to four stems. CHARTERED
sets on the other hand, whether from
three, four, five or six-ounce tubers,
show that the greatest stem frequency
falls in the two-stem column in the
Pressure Isle (Me.) data. In the Vir-
ginia data whole sets shift from three
to five stems, halved sets from two to
three stems, and quartered sets from
one to two stems.

Prevent Cow Sucking

One of the best devices we have
ever seen to prevent Govt sucking
herself consists Of nothing more than
several rows of sharp nails driven
through the nose band of a leather
halter. These nails are driven through
from the inside of the band and
should be kept sharp with file. As
the COW reaches to suck her own milk
she sticks her udder with these sharp
points and soon grows tired of the
effort.

Ground for Soy Beans

Most any good corn ground will
grow soy beans. providing the soil is
put in fit condition before the beans
are planted. It's big mistake to put
beans ON cloddy, weedy ground. Keep
the weeds down, make good seeded
and then drill in the beans and you can
grow soy bean seed or soy bean hay

WATERS TO CONTINENT TO
 LEARN ART OF SERVING
English Servants Re.establishing Pre-
 war Custom of Spending Period in Other Countries

HI SOfLf 1ouAaiIs
 London. May s,-English walters are beginning to initiate the pre-war custom of their continental colleagues in going abroad for year or so to acquire the fnesse of the profession. There they learn foreign languages, become attentive and, most of all, they acquire the flood sense."
 In the old days walters in high class continental establishments were re- quired to put in a year each in Eng land, France and Italy to learn not only the language. but the eating peculiarities of the different countries.
 English walters now go, abroad in droves every year, says the secretary of the London County Council school for Walters. Every year the London hotel and restaurant proprietors are exacting more, from their walters which is all against the Englishman, for the foreigner knows far more about food and service than those who lack continental experience. In fact, survey shows that the whole art of the restaurant in the British metropolis is in the hands of French men and Italians.
 The chief cause of the discontent among English walters, however, is
