Lime Quite Useful
on Any cid Soil
Judicious Use to Be Favored
Where Manure Is Scarce.

Do not get the idea that you can
safely stop using lime just because
the writer Of popular articles has ques-
toned Its value. This advice comes
from A. w. Blair, associate soil chem
list at the New Jersey College Of Ag.
riculture, New Brunswick. In ex.
PLANTATION Of this he says: There are
a few plants that do fairly we'll on an
acid soil, but If you are engaged in
general farming or trucking where the
supply Of farm manure Is limited, you
will be abundantly rewarded for the
judicious use Of lime in some form.
For the average soil, unless known to
be highly acid, one to two tons Of pull.
verified limestone per acre or the
equivalent in another form, once In
four or five-year rotation, will usually
be sufficient.
Zone who spends all his days on
the farm, and observes carefully the
effect Of fertilizers and lime on such
crops as clover, alfalfa, and other
soil-building legumes, Is in q better
position to measure the effect Of lime
on such crops than the one who
makes an occasional visit to farm or
to some experimental plots. He knows
full well that commercial fertilizers
cannot fully take the place of lime.
1.-THE soils gradually become acid,
not because Of the fertilizers, but In
spite Of them, and lime or some other
basic materials must be added at in
tervals to replace certain substances
that are constantly being lost through
drainage waters and the removal of
crops.
when mineral fertilizers have been
used continually without lime or
manure, 1t Is practically impossible to
get clover and alfalfa to grow, but
add lime to this same land and vol
unteer clover comes In, even to the
partial exclusion Of timothy and other
grasses. This fact has been demon
strated many times on the soil fertility
plots at the New Jersey agricultural
experiment station"

Windbreaks Should Have
Attention Beforehand

Farmers who are interested in wind.
breaks should look around their farm
buildings now to see where the snow
is coming from, with the object in
view Of planting windbreaks to keep
out the cold, wintry winds sometime
in the future. Plans can well be
made now to prevent snow from drift
ing and to break disagreeable winds
that sweep about farm buildings.
Plan on planting the farm woodlot
so that 1t will be an efficient protector
against severe north and northwest
winds. The amount Of nursery stock
needed can be figured out and orders
placed early with the nurseries.
Nurseries usually fill orders In the
order received. Another reason for
early buying is that 1t pays to have
seedlings in the ground early in the
spring. Seedlings should be planted
before they have started their normal
growth.

Remember Robin Hood Stories

Don. and mother went with grand
father to nelghboring town, where
grandfather was to preach. After the
services stranger kindly invited them
to dine with her at the inn. They ac-
copied, and were just finishing dinner
when the hostess turned to Don and
asked If he had had all he wanted.
mo-" was the prompt reply. And
when questioned further, announced
he wished pot Of ale.
His amazed mother asked what he
meant, well knowing the child did not
know what ale meant.
isn't this an inn?" asked the child.
And when mother said 1t was, he re-
piled, "When Robin Hoods men went
to an inn they always asked for a pot
Of ale."

Many Important
Problems Solved
Various State Experiment
Stations Conducting
Farm Projects.

prepared byfhs-ynited States Department
Of Aesiculture)
Many Important, problems in agri-
culture are being gradually, solved by
the experiment stations and the grist
Of know ledge gten to the public.
During the year, 192425 the various
state experiment. stations were con-
Quoting projects dealing with 5,53S diff
ferent phases Of agriculture, an aver
age Of ITO projects per station. In
some instances projects are finished
In one year, but in many cases several
years may be required to complete the
investigations and make the results
applicable to practice.
Wide Range Of Subjects.
A classified list Of the different
projects now being carried on by the
stations has been prepared by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, which shows the wide range Of
subject matter covered by the expert
mental work.
Projects dealing with field crops
lead in number, with a total Of 1877.
OF the field crops under study, corn
leads with 10 or more projects, wheat
follows with 1874, potatoes 1872, cotton
so, alfalfa, 81, oats 81, and soy beans
So.
Horticulture comes second with 962
projects, Of which over 400 deal with
orchard fruits, the leading fruit being
apples 115 and peaches As; 1876 in
small fruits; 275 with vegetables, the
leading representative Of which Is to-
matoes "a; 65 with ornamentals; and
30 with nuts, the largest representa-
tives Of which are pecans 20 and wal
nuts 13.
The third largest group Is a,dmal
production with 926 projects. including
among others poultry POS, dairy cattle
191, swine 1S9, sheep and goats 81,
beef cattle II, and horses and mules
II.
Plant Pathology.
: Plant pathology Is another large
group, having 4S2 projects, Of which Al
deal with potato disease.
Projects in economic entomology
number 372, 3S Of which relate to bees
and % to cotton insects.
In addition to the projects Carried
on at the state stations, the stations
maintained by the department at
Alaska. Hawaii, Porto Rico, Guam,
and the Virgin islands have $50
projects, which Increases the total to
5.6SS.

Compare Soy Beans With
Tankage to Fatten Hogs

In comparing ration Of shelled
corn, soy beans and mineral mixtures,
with shelled corn and tankage, In re-
cent experiments at Purdue, Ind, it
was found that soy bean hogs put on
weight at cost of $5.75 per hundred
weight against $6.O4 for the tankage
fed animals, and the rate of gain was
almost as much, 1852 pounds per day
against 1.65 pounds per day. The cost
of corn and soy bean hogs, without the
mineral mixture, was $3.50 per hun
dred. All the lots had legums pas
ture.
These results Show that a pound of
soy beans practically replaced a pound
Of tankage. On this basis. soy beans
may be used II obtained at a lower
cost per pound than tankage. Since
soy beans can be produced on the ma
jority Of corn belt farms for consid.
erably less than the usual cost of an
equal amount Of tankage, they should
be more generally used with corn and
legume pasture for fattening hogs.

Language
Heard Everywhere

"The whole world is talking Eng
lish." writes Doctor Van Rossem In
The Hague Post, after a tour through
the five continents. you land in the
French colonies In Cochin China and
instead Of 'bonjour' you hear good
morning. You are introduced in a
French club In Madagascar and in
stead Of 'enchante' you are welcomed
with the words How do you dor I
found that only one clerk spoke
French in the French colony of Biche-
la-Mer In the Pacific. It's the same
thing In China and India. And what
Is the reason?" he asks. 1.-THE ships
are English, the money is In Ameri-
can hands; custom officers, military
attaches, legation officials, everybody
speaks English" There Is another
reason, the French official In the colo
nies doesn't care a rap about the
whole colonial business. He counts
the days when he will stroll again on
the Boulevard des Capucins. And then
there Is the well-known English atti-
tude. An Englishman arrives at Corfu
or on an island In the South seas and
he says. "Henceforth everybody will
have to speak English. I will not un-
derstand another language" The peo-
pie might refuse, but pretty soon
somebody begins to say "good-by"
when he should say good morning"
and the Englishman has won out
again.-Pierre Van Paassen, in the
Atlanta Constitution.

Improved Dat Varieties
Developed for New York

A number Of high-yielding oat vari-
cites have been developed by the New
York state experiment station in CO.
operation with the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture. Six Of these
varieties, the Comewell, Comedian,
Empire, Ithacan, Standwell, and Up
right, are discussed in Department
Circular 1853 just issued by the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Tested on New York farms for a pc
riod Of four years, 1921 to 1925, each
Of these varieties gave an average
yield Of more than so bushels per
acre.
The investigational work to develop
these high-yielding varieties was under
taken because Of the important place
the oat crop holds in the agriculture
Of New York, and because the general
average Of the crop over the entire
state has been $40 bushels per acre for
the past 16 years. This low yield has
been due In part to the use Of poorly
adapted and low-yieldlng varieties.
During the slx-year period from
1918 to 1923, inclusive, in experiments
at Ithaca the Comedian has produced
decidedly the highest average yield,
exceeding its nearest competitor, the
Ithacan, by more than five bushels to
the acre. The yield Of the Comedian
was $50 bushels.
A copy of the circular may be on
tained, as long as the supply lasts, by
writing to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington, D. G.

Additional Protein for
Dairy Cows Profitable

Cheap feed prices and relatively
good butter prices will encourage the
dairyman to feed heavier this year
than last when the conditions were
exactly reversed.
In connection with heavier feeding
1t is we'll to make a special study Of
economical feeding. AS a general rule
one of the chief needs Of the ration is
additional protein.
Additional protein for dairy cattle
Is furnished either by some good form
Of legume hay or by oil meal. cotton
seed meal, gluten feed, wheat bran
and cracked soy beans, or by a COM
bination of both. Cows which are
heavy producers can make a profitable
use Of larger percentage of these
feeds in a ration than cows which are
low producers. In other words, it is
often practical to feed from two to
three pounds Of high protein concen-
trate to five or six-gallon COW when
1t is not practical to buy any addi-
tional feed to balance up the ration
for a two or three-gallon cow. The
reason for the difference Is that the
high producers will increase their pro-
duction on account Of the added pro-
TEN.
: A question which is often asked Is
(which Of these feeds shall I buy?"
Illinois experiment station tests show
but little difference. Therefore 1t Is
largely question Of available supply
and relative cost.

Christian era, discovered some of the
silks in an ancient cemetery at Lou
Ian, which Is in the track of an an
cient trade route from China to CEN

Fragments Of clothes of Chinese SOL

Quarters for Pullets

The young poultry stock should be
shooed towards winter quarters by this
time. especially pullets Matched early
enough to begin laying In October.
When the puIlets put on their red
combs, they are nearing the period of
egg production, and any disturbance In
quarters at this time will postpone the
laying Of the first egg. Have the house
thoroughly cleaned, and plan to get the
birds In gradually. by moving the brood
