duction Of homegrown high protein
crops" declares GRADER.
He cxes the cases of Wisconsin, nli-
nois, Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania,
and New York to show the necessity
for early reversal of cropping prac-
tees. Although these states are heavy
producers of live stock we find in them
95 per cent Of our timothy, and only
IA per cent Of our alfalfa. These
states raise 18,OOO,OOO acres Of mixed
hay which is chiefly timothy and very
little clover, and 100000 acres Of
pure timothy. Timothy, he points out,
is a very low protein hay.
The dairy industry requires high
protein roughages. 1t takes protein
to make milk, and to raise healthy,
sound dairy calves. Wisconsin has and
still is producing large quantities of
milk, butter and cheese, and some of
the finest dairy calves to be found
anywhere. The Badger dairyman
and the dairy farmer have made this
creditable production possible chiefly
through spending $2S,O00,00O annually
for high protein feeds and hays.
Alfalfa is crop that has proved
it's superiority over all other hay crops
in yields per acre, feeding value, soil
enrichment, drought resistance, and the
ability to eradicate weeds. Acre per
acre alfalfa will produce six times
more digestible protein than timothy,
and four times as much as clover and
timothy mixed and two times as much
as clover alone.
More alfalfa fields in Wisconsin will
make heavy inroads upon the feed
bills; and with prospective acreage of
100000 for the next year, the green
gold" (alfalfa) is bound to gain rapid
favor.

seek the highest spots for the apple

seek the highest spots for the apple
orchard site.
Have Orchard Conveniently Located.
''The farm orchard should be To-
Gated conveniently, declares Moore.
"for too much time is wasted in going
to and from the orchard when located
at a distance" Then, there is the pos
sibility that the fruit will not be gath
cred on time, and in many cases will
be left to rot on the ground as the
busy housewife has very little time to
walk across the forty whenever she
wishes to get few apples for her
weekly batch of pies.
Rather than have the orchard so far
away that the fruit is left to rot or
even to get overly ripe, it is better to
have the orchard located more con-
veniently even though it be on a
poorer soil.
Usually the orchard that is located
at some distance from the house is
not taken care Of the way it should be,
and for this reason, too, the orchard
should be located so as to be handy for
the one who cares for it.
Some Elevation Is Best for Orchard.
In choosing an orchard site in the
Badger state, it is always best to try
and locate spot that is elevated a
little above the usual run of the sur

United States Leads in
Machinery on the Farm

Farming leads all industries as
user of power and, in turn, the Ameri-
can farmer has more power and ma
chinery at his command than the farm
err of any other country, according to
e. w. lehman, University of Illinois.
Most of the machines of production
for the farm have been developed dur-
ing the last rs years. and in that time
the farmer has changed from 'the man
with a hoe to user of power and a
large scale producer.
The last twenty-five years especially
have seen a marked increase Ill the
use of machinery and mechanical pow
err on the farm.

Sweet Glover Of Help
in Building Up Soil

Sweet clover is one of the best crops
to grow for the purpose Of turning I'M
der to build up the sell. Not only does
it add organic matter and fertility to
the soil when the heavy growth is
turned under, but the roots are active
in storing up nitrogen in nodules when
the proper incubation is present. One
of the best times to SOW is in early
spring, about January or February on
wheat or rye fields. Another good
plan, however, is to SOW with oats or
barley in the spring. This is suggested
as the best method where the. stalk
field has been left over winter

Not Hard to Determine
Value of Breeding Hen

Hens lay the majority Of eggs dur
ing their first two laying seasons and
especially during their pullet year, If
they are early Matched. IL a hen lays
well during her pullet year she should
be kept for another year as a breeder.
If she lays well during her second
wear she should be kept for another
wear as breeder. The older she is
and the more culling she survives the
better, for then she has proved that
she has the vitality to stand up under
long-continued laying, and consequent
ly is valuable as breeder-Exten-

some of the number may not yield so
well as some particular variety. The
housewives on the Badger farms need
a large number of kinds Of fruits for
the home use.
Medium loans or the gravelly loans
are considered the best types Of soils
to select for the new orchard. Then,
when these types of soils are not
available, choose other soils that will
come as close as possible to the de
sired type.
There are certain soils that should
be avoided, for fruit trees planted on
those soils are doomed to be disap-
pointment to the planter. They are
light sandy soils, low undrained soils
and rich dark prairie loans. Where
the farm is located on a prairie soil.
and no other soil is available, try to

face. The higher elevations, any
where in the state, will be less afflicted
with the late frosts during the spring
blossoming period.
The reason for choosing northern
exposed slope site is that blossom
ing time is retarded until frost dam
gers are over by the time the trees do
blossom
AS rule it is desired that slopes
facing in a northerly direction should
be CHOSEN for the orchard site, advo-
Gates the apple man, but there are ex-
ceptions to this rule in certain cases,
especially where the prevailing strong
winds come from the northwest. In
case the farm is located in such a
locality, then 1t is probably better to
look around and find another exposure
that will answer the same purpose.

HUGE FEED BILLS
OF BADGER FARMERS
Greater Yields of Alfalfa
Will Help Cut Down the
Excessive Cost.

This is the first of a series of ar
ticles which are to have but one aim
in view; to point out, without beat
ing around the bush," our need for
more home grown high protein forage.
Our feed bills are eating too heavily
into our profits. Alfalfa has been
chosen as the outstanding forage crop
that will help free the farmer of the
necessity of buying protein feeds as
he has in the past.
Badger farmers, according to l.. f..
GRADER. agronomist of the Wisconsin
College Of Agriculture, are spending
annually $28,000,000 for hays and
grains.
This means that the average farmer
in the state of Wisconsin is spending
OF his hard earned cash several hun
bred dollars each season for feeds
that in most instances could have been
raised right at home.
According to GRADER, Wisconsin is
not alone in her unfortunate condition
Of having to buy feeds. Minnesota
has an annual feed bill of $23,000,000,
New York registers with $83,000,OOO,
Illinois pays out $64,0000O0, Iowa
$4,000 900, and Pennsylvania falls in
line with a handsome figure of $751;
OoO,OOO Each state boasts and Is
nroud to bear the name Of being a
great dairy center Still, each of these
states digs deep into the farm profits
TO buy protein feeds that could, to a
large extent be raised at home.
"Overproduction may at this time be
a thorn in the flesh of agricultural
progress, but an enormous feed bill
is the price dairymen and the live
stock farmers pay for the underpro-

Rich6eld Leads All

The Richfield Cow TestinO associa-
ton, with an average Of 341 pounds of
butterfat per COW, leads all associa-
tons in Wisconsin and in the central
western states with the highest aver
age yearly butterfat production per
COW. The average milk yield was
9,S49 pounds.

Feed in Severe Weather

Many successful poultrymen follow
the practice of supplying little more
feed than usual when the weather is
unfayorable and some of them change
the ration slightly, supplying a little
more of the heat and fat producing
elements. This is done on the theory
that the fowls are warmer and more
comfortable when so fed and there is
no doubt but that this is the case. In
any event special attention when the
weather is bad is the best way to
avoid the beginning of disease and dis
orders which may throw the entire
flock out of condition for an entire
season.

New Fumigant for
Control of Weevil
Specialists Discover Remedy
Suitable for Use in
Grain Cars.
,(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.l

,(Prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
A new fumiganL, which is non-in-
fiammable and nOn-explosive but eff
fective for the destruction of weevDs
In wheat In grain cars, has been dis
covered by specialists Of the bureau
of chemistry, collaborating with the
bureaus of entomology and agricultural
economics Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. This new
fumigant leaves no Objectionable odor
in the flour or other products made
from the grain. 1t consists of mix
ture Of four volumes Of ethyl acetate
with six volumes of carbon tetrachlor-
lde.
Made Exhaustive Tests.
The new fumigant was discovered
as the result of an extensive research
to find something to take the place of
the highly infiammable and explosive
carbon disulphide which was used ex-
tensively for fumigating grain, but the
use of which in fumigating box cars
loaded with grain has been prohibited
by nearly all the railroads in the coun-
try, except at 6 few isolated points,
because of the danger Of fire and ex-
plosion.
Tests were made of more than 100
organic compounds and various COM
binations of these upon three species
of grain weevils and the Indian meal
moth, before discovery Of a suitable
fumigant that was non-explosive, nom
inflammable, and without injurious ac-
ton on the grain or the products man
ufactured from the grain. This new
mixture kills practically 100 per cent
of weeviIs, in wheat loaded In box
cars, when used at the rate Of not less
than 40 pounds per 1000 cubic feet
of air space. At present prices the
mixture costs 10 cents per pound Fig
uring the average box car to have a
capacity of 2,75O cubic feet and to be
loaded with 1900 bushels Of wheat
the cost Of fumigating will be less
than cent a bushel, or to be exact,
So cents per 100 bushels.
Old Method OutIawed
Since the old carbon disulphide
method, because Of the danger of ex-
Dlosion or fire, has been outlawed by
the railroads, except at two terminals,
and allowed there only temporarily as
an emergency measure, it is apparent
that but for the discovery Of a safe
effective method for fumigating, the
practice of fumigating in cars would
soon have been discontinued 1t is es-
timated that the savings effected by
fumigating all weesily grain will
amount annually to approximately
$4,000.
The detailed results Of this work
will shortly be published in depart
ment bulletin A mimeographed sheet
describing how to make and use the
new mixture can be obtained from the
bureau Of chemistry, United States De
partment of Agriculture
Further experiments are contemplate
ed to determine the suitability and
dosage of this mixture for fumigating
elevators, -four mills, etc., and for
fumigating human habitations to de-
stroy various household insects.

Garden Recreation

The American people spend
millions of dollars annually in
recreation They go on vaca-
lions in order to be better fitted
to do their work when they re-
turn. Others who cannot af-
ford the expense of a vacation
trip often find recreation and
daily change Of scene in their
own dooryard, either with flow
ers or with a vegetable garden
from which they draw q supply
of fresh and wholesome food.

Preparation of Soil

Deep and thorough prepare
ton of the soil is the funda-
mental upon which to build a
good summer garden. Vege-
tables have preferences just as
do people, some like to be in
the full sunshine and enjoy hot
weather, others are more sensi-
tive and prefer cooler condi-
tions and occasionally a little
shading. Some like a rich soil
and others like a moderately
rich soil. None thrive on poor
sdsl.
