Two Coats of Paint Are
Usually a Sufficiency

A little paint is good, but more is
better. A single coat of paint serves
its purpose as q preseryatfve for a
while but it does not have the stam-
ina weathering action SO very long.
IL it be reinforced with sec
Ond coat, it will have much greater
efficiency. 1t is estimated that a
two-coat job of painting will last well
and give as good results as three sep
arate single coats put on at different
times. In other words, single coat
painting costs 50 per cent more to get
the same efficiency.
Two coats are usually sufficient to
cover a surface well if the paint is
properly mixed and properly brushed
out. Three coats are usually not nee
essary unless the surface is in eX-
ceedingly had condition. If the paint
is applied too thick it is likely to
peel and blister and thus be impaired
in value.

Make and Store Butter
for Use During Winter

shaking and Storing Farm Butter
for Winter Use" is the self-explana-
tory title of Leaffet No. 81, just is
sued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture 1t is designed
for use in farm homes where there is
:: surplus of butter in the summer and
where the winter supply is not always
adequate for the needs. For butter
which is to keep for months, it has
been found by experiment that Pas
teurized sweet cream should be used.
and the butter churned at fairly low
temperature. After being churned it
should be washed carefully, sailed,
wrapped in rolls or prints and COW
cred in a strong brine and kept in a
cool place. The brne method of
preservation in stone crooks was
found far superior to covering with
parchment paper, storing in dry salt,
o. covering with paraffin. This leaflet
is devoted. primarily to suggestions
for storage and supplements the more
detailed bulletin No. S7e-F, Making

lions may be obtained by application

Life of Farm Machinery
Depends on Winter Care

Many claims are made on the
amount of saving made by housing
farm implements, says John w. Sjog-
rem. in charge of farm mechanics,
Colorado Agriculture college.
One authority states that the life
of machine can be doubled through
proper care and housing. There is no
doubt thar placing farm machines
under cover will keep them in better
running order and i'm many instances
increase the life of the implements.
If machine shed is not available,
Professor Sjogren states, the imple-
ments should at least receive enough
care to place them in some corner
where they will be out of the way.
All parts such as plowshares and
euftfvator shovefs should receive a
coat of heavy axle grease to prevent
the formation of rust. Tongues. and
other wooden parts should receive a
coat of paint to keep moisture out of
cracks as far as possible.
While putting the machinery away
card should be made out for each
machine and a list made of all over
hauling that should he done and of
repairs to be ordered. Repair work
can then be done at odd times dur
ing the dull season.

Why do so many, many babies of to-
day escape all the little fretful spells
and infantile ailments that used to-
worry mothers through the day.; and.
keep them up half the night?
If you don't know the answer, you,
haven't discovered pure, harmless Cas-
toria. 1t is sweet to the taste, and
sweet in the little stomach. And it's
gentle influence seems felt all through
the tiny system. Not even distaste-
full dose of castor oil does so much
good.
Fletcher's Castoria is purely vege-
table, so you may give it freely, at
first sign of collie; or constipation; or
diarrhea. Or those many times when
you just don't know what Is the mat
ter. For real sickness, call the doc
tor, always. At other times, few
drops of Fletcher's Castoria.
The doctor often tells you to do just
that; and always says Fletcher's.
Other preparations may be just as
pure, just as free from dangerous
drugs, but why experiment? Besides,
the book on care and feeding of babies
that comes with Fletcher's Castoria Is
worth it's weight in gold!

Agricultural Notes

Sugar beet tops have been used for
silage and are quite satisfactory.
Alfalfa and corn for silage are
among our most profitable crops.
Every man who grows legumes Op-
crates his own Muscle Shoals nitrogen
factory.
The fertilizer value of the manure
that is lost in feed lots that are not
paved is no small item and should not
be overlooked.
If vines. cornstalks and other truck
aren't gathered up and burned they'll
shelter insects through the winter
that1l make you grief next season.
Pumpkins and squashes should be
allowed to ripen and harden but no:
freeze. Well matured specimens should
then be stored on racks or shelves in
dry, warm room.
Paving OF feed lots is an investment
that pays good dividends. If COM
plete program Of paving the entire lot
cannot be carried out, there are GER
tain places that should be by all
means paved

Increasing Demand
Made for Soy Beans
Call for Expansion Of Pro-
duction in This Country.
prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Soy-bean growing is a branch Of
agriculture in which the national sup
ply does not meet the demand, w. J..
Morse of the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture pointed out to an
Illinois audience at the State Soy Bean
day celebration at Urbana. In spite
of the very rapid spread of soy-bean
culture in the United States in recent
years, we imported last year about
31,000,000 pounds of soy-bean oil, 49,
100000 pounds of soy-bean cake, apd
100000 pounds of soy beans. These
large imports and the increasing utili-
cation of the crop, Mr. Morse said, call
for an expansion of soy-bean produc-
ton in our own country.
In the United States the industry is
in its infancy and although soy beans
are used primarily for forage, our oil
mills offer an opportunity for great
er production of Seed In China the
soy bean is primarily a cash crop. 1t
is used in many food products and is
an indispensable part of the national
diet. In Manchuria, which produces
about 20 per cent of the world supply
of soy beans, the crop occupies about
25 per cent of the cultivated area,
producing on the average about half
ton to the acre.
That the Department of Agriculture
is doing its share in promoting soy
bean culture is reflected in the fact
that one of it's agricultural explorers
in China obtained approximately 1000
intrOductions of seed, which are being
tried out by the government with
promising results.

Summing Up Economic
Value of Farm Silo

Summing up the economic value OF
the silo, where large numbers of ex-
periments and tests are averaged, you
can safely figure that the silO will
save 81 on the production of 100
pounds of beef or growth. 1t will
save II cents on the. cost of producing
a pound of butter. 1t will save 40
cents on the production of 100 pounds
of milk. 1t will save 81 in the pro.
duction of 100 pounds of mutton. For
keeping horses, mules. young stock,
and dry COWS, 1t will save 80 per
cent on the feed bill. Every stock
keeper can figure out the value of the
silo to him on this basis.
