How to Grow Hairy Vetch and Grim
son Glover

D. S. c.. Hagan, Ga, writes: I
wish some information in regard
to the sowing of hairy or winter
Vetch and crimson clover When
should they be seeded, how much
seed per acre, and what kind
and how much fertilizer should
be used?
Both of the crops mentioned
should be planted relatively early in
the season. The nearer planting can
be done to the 18th Of October the
better the results which you are
likely to obtain. The season has
been so dry that planting will nat
rurally be greatly delayed this year.
In north Georgia we think that we
could undertake to plant these crops
even as late as November IS. In
south Georgia they might be sown
as late as December I. The sooner
you can get them into the ground
the better. 1t would be a good idea
to lime land intended for these crops.
For this purpose a ton of crushed,
raw limestone rock may be used
with advantage. Flowing the land
is good practice when this can be
done early in the season, but it is
important to remember that a firm

these crops. Therefore, if an abun-
dance Of rain falls within the next
few days, you may be able to put
the land in good shape by simply
cross -discing it. Hairy vetch may
be sown alone or in combination
with cereals. We usually sow it
with oats, using twenty pounds of
hairy vetch and a bushel of oat
seed We naturally cure the crop
for hay. If one wishes to raise
vetch for seed, it may be seeded by
Itself. In that event, we think you
would have to use from thirty to
fifty pounds of vetch seed Crimson
clover may be sown with a seeding
machine or broadcasted. 1t should
be covered into the soil with a weed

A Program for Our American
FoI.y4,nHS


D. E. W., Westminster, Md,
writes: Please state briefly what
You consider the aims of the
American farmers at the pres
ent time.
The American farmer is concerned
at this time about several things.
One is the maintenance of our export
trade on a satisfactory basis in or
der that the surplus of the various
farp crops he has for sale may be
marketed successfully and so help
to maintain the home market on a
proffta BILE basis. If conditions in Eu-
rope and throughout the world were
at all normal, the chances are there
would be no surplus of any food
crops in the United States, but
rather the opposite. This would of
course help to stabilize and raise
prices to a degree which would per-
nit the farmer to operate his land
on an acceptable basis. obtain rea-
sonable part of the dollar he pro
duces, and provide the food needed
to make his home comfortable, inn
prove the farmstead generally, con.
tribute his part to the general uplift
and progress of the local community.
and Educate his children in salts
v
iaRhat the farmer should feel that
thfTe IS too much lost motion be-
tween the field and the home of the
urban resident. Cooperative mar
keting will tend to stabilize the sit
uation and adjust the equal distrl-
button of food costs on a more az
ceptable basis.
1t may be that the farmer has
some interest in tariff questions.
Our country should not be made a
place in which the cheap products
of foreign labor, where the standard
OF living in infinitely lower than
ours, can be dumped at will. I do
not think that tariff legislation viii
cure many of our troubles, but
there are ways IN which traiff legis-
iat1on may be handled and adjusted
so as to be of material benefit to our
producers.

A useful device about any garage
or shop is what may be termed a soft
anvil. The removal of parts fire.
quently requires hammering or
pounding, which must be done on q
soft surface. For this purpose the
top of the bench is generally used
and this causes considerable wear
and tear. This can be eliminated by
following out cast iron disc to form
d cup TO hold lead, so that all ham
mering can be done on the lead CEN

RUSTY BOLTS REMOVAL.
Problem Simplifed by Raising Car
on Jack.

Bolts located on the under side of
the car. such as on the steering
knuckles. pivot pins, etc, in an ex-
posed position. are sometimes difficult
to remove, having become rusted in
place. The problem of removing such
bolts becomes greatly lessened when
it is remembered that the weight Of
the car may be utilized to aid In
their removal. A Jack is screwed up
directly under the stubborn bolt
lifting the car a few inches from the
floor. Tapping lightly with a ham
mer on the part which carries the
bolt will usually cause it to be pushed
out. The advantage of this method
Is that no hammering is done on the
bolt; therefore. the threads on the
end will not be shattered.

Castles to Spare.
From the Youths Companion.

Castles in Germany, tho homes of
dukes and princes before the revolu-
ton, but now in the hands OF the gov
ernment, are so numerous that-offi-
cials are puzzled how to dispose of
them. Few persons want to buy a
castle, especially one that Is situated
in a remote part of the country.
Some of the castles and palaces In
Berlin and Potsdam have been con-
verted into museums and public build
ings. The rest are likely to remain
vacant and for sale until they attract
the attention Of wealthy foreigners.
