Best Depth for Flowing
Various Kinds of Soils

How deep is it profitable to plow? AT
the Illinois experiment station. results
Of blowing tests carried on for several
years were recently published. The
tests were made in gray silt loan en-
tight clay In Marion and Cumberland
counties and on brown silt loan in
Champaign county.
Less than five inches was considered
as shallow, between five and eight
inches medium and more than eight
inches, deep blowing. When 1t cost
$3.50 to pillow an acre seven inches
deep, II cost SIS an acre to subsoil and
ST an acre to deep till. 1t required
four horses to pull subsoil pillow and
six to pull the deep tillage machine In
Cumberland county two-plow tractor
was used for two years to pull the
deep tillage machine. and it was over
loaded.
The difference In the average yields
on fields receiving the various treat
ments was so small as to entirely lack
significance. These results check ex-
actly with a similar Ohio experiment.
The authors of that experiment state
that the yields from the various fields
were practically identical and In view
Of the expense involved, the seven-inch
blowing was by far the most profitable.
The use of dynamite on soils having
an impervious subsoil did not material
ly increase yields while the cost was
high. When charges were placed at
intervals Of one rod each way and one
third of a stick used for each shot, the
cost ran around 500 to $25 an acre with
dynamite at 80 cents a pound

PAYING THE PRICE

A NDREWS was eighteen when he
4 \ came to our community He had
been brought up with more than or
binary strictness, and strangely he
had accepted as his own the prin-
ciples which his father and mother
had taught him. He believed in hon
esty, and truth and moral rectitude.
He lived along for the first two
years l knew him quietly, in de-
cent and orderly way, doing his work
regularly and well end living whole
some happy life. 1t was Thanksgiving
day, he told me, afterward, and be-
ing far away from home, he was rest
less and homesick. Griggs came into
his room, older and more experienced
than Andrews.
'Let's go down town and see what
we can pick up" he said. you'll
stagnate if you don't see little Of
real life, Andrews"
And Andrews went and saw what
some are pleased to call "life." He
"took a chance" and awakened a
few days later to the realization that
he was the victim of deadly disease.
that made him shudder when he
thought of the possibilities. and be-
fore month he had suffered a gen.
eral stroke of paralysis. That was
ten years ago. and he has never
walked since. and he never will.

saw him wheeled about helpless by
his gray-haired patient mother. There
is no hope for him, no outlook.

morning that call the other fellows

the time mother sits by, patient, never
uttering a word Of blame, but the
pain and disappointment Of 1t eating
her heart out"
What was there to say? I had a
letter from him a few days ago.
1T will be ten years on the twenty
second of December" he wrote, "since
have walked, and I'm thirty years
old. What have suffered and what
my parents have suffered only God
knows. Often you have a chance to
talk to young fellows. Won't you tell
them about me sometimes and say
that for. the qualification of every evil
passion they'll always have to pay

And so I'm telling you.

Cow Testing. Is
Aid to Dairying
Associations Now Throwing
Light on Production Of
307,O73 Cows.

prepared by the United States Department.
of Agriculture.)
Seven hundred and thirty-tw0 stars
now adorn map of the United States
in the Office of the bureau of dairying
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. These stars represent the
number of cow-testing associations now
throwing light on the milk and butter
fat production of 307,O73 cows. Thou
sands of dairymen have watched with
interest the growth Of the testing idea
from the time the first star was placed
on the map in 1905 to the present, with
1872 stars marking the progressive dairy
communities.
Like Chart of Heavens
This map, says the bureau, may be
likened to chart of the starry heav-
ems in the early evening. AS the stars
begin to appear one by one, then
more rapidly, and finally in clusters in
every part of the skies, so have the
cow-testing associations appeared, first
one by one, then more rapidly, and
now in groups in various parts of the
united states.
To carry this analogy still further:
The Newaygo county (Mich.) associ-
alton, the first to be organized in the
United States, may represent the eve
ming star, which is the first to come
out The big associations of our west
ern coast may represent the largest
planets. Other smaller but no less
worthy associations may be thought of
as stars of various magnitudes Some
of the more brilliant associations may
be likened to Mercury, Venus. and
Mars, but it requires no wild flight
of the imagination to detect the milky
way in that great group of contrasting
associations that extends in long and
graceful curve from the DakOtas
through the upper stretches of the
Mississippi and st. Lawrence valleys,
then across the Alleshenies to the
eastern shores of New England.
Cows Now on Test.
In these associations 1.2 per cent Of
our dairy cows are now on test. As
the years roll round it is hoped, says
the department, that more and more
cows may be placed on test, and that
finally every dairyman may become q
member Of wide-awake contrasting
association. Then will the analogy Of
the stars and the associations be COM
plete.

There is story with which most

many another commonplace.
From that time on Paul was a
literary Bolshevist. Whatever savored
of orthodox religion he sneered at.
The thought of mid-victorian litera-

laughter.
"All this religious stuff is bosh," he
admitted. Its a sort of weak super

One Cause of Bloat

When cattle have eaten lot Of salt
just before being turned on pasture
they are apt to drink large amount
of water after filling up on green feed
and that sometimes causes rapid fer
mentation of the contents of the stom-
ach and may result in serious case
of bloat. This may happen even if the
legumes are not wet. Let cattle have
free access to salt at all times SO they
will not develop an unusual thirst.

Scratch Feed for Hens

Not over one-third of the scratch
feed should be fed in the morning,
with the other two-thirds fed in the
afternoon. This will allow the hens
to fill their crops before going to
roost. The mash feed should be be-

light feed in the morning will en-

and this is needed to furnish the mus

Feeding for Eggs

Well-balanced, palatable feeds are
necessary to get good egg production.
With good stock. the additional cost of
good ration is repaid many times by
the extra eggs obtained. Here are
some points to be observed:

mented with meat scrap. fish scrap. or

Supply green feed of some kind
