Drainage Is Beneficial
Where Areas Are Small

Contrary to the opinion of many. It
does pay to drain wet lands. This is
particularly true Of, fields broken BY
wet areas that are small, says q. K.
Gross, agricultural engineer at the
New Jersey agricultural experiment
station, New Brunswick.
With the present high cost OF drain
lille, it is ill-advised to drain large
areas of wet or swampy farm land I'M
less the returns will be decidedly large,
as in the case of vegetable growing.
For general farming 1t is far more
profitable to drain the small areas
which break the regular shape of large
fields and serve as. obstacles to the
convenient use Of machinery. Most
farmers prefer fields of rectangular
shape, not only because Of the conven-
fence afforded for farm operations and
the consequent saving Of labor, but
also because the size Of a rectangular
field is easily computed when it is de-
sirabIe to determine acreages planted
and yield per acre.
The cost of draining irregular
swampy areas which make possible
larger fields may be distributed over
the entire field on account of the saw
ing of labor In operations on that
field.

Alfalfa Quite Popular
ROuphage for Dairy Cow

There are many roughages that
might be used In furnishing dairy
cattle with the necessary bulky food.
Since roughage is usually the least
expensive part of the ration, large
amounts should be fed as is consistent
with good results.
Roughages vary in numbers depend
ing upon the geographic location Of
the particular dairymen. Each sec
tor has its own roughages which it
uses to good advantage.
Alfalfa hay has become one of the
most popular roughages- and is the
best hay for dairy cattle because it is
very nutritious, contains more min
eral matter and protein than any 9TH
er hay. is palatable and serves as a
laxative. This particular hay Is ex-
cellent when fed in the green state.
but does not stand pasturing. AS for
siIage, 1t is very good providing it is
allowed to wilt before putting 1t into
the silo. Alfalfa should not be made
into silage If the weather condition
permits making 1t into hay and other
crops can be used for the sil0.

Silage for Economical
Milk Production Urged

Silage fed with legume hay and q
good grain mixture makes a satisfac-
tory and economical ration for the
dairy herd. This succulent roughage
helps to impart palatabliity to all
feed consumed, keeps the bowels ac-
tive, and serves as an appetizer when
there is nothing but dry feeds avail
able.
The Purdue experiment station
found that ration containing silage,
alfalfa and hay and good grain mix
ture produced milk for $1.03 for each
100 pounds, while the feeding Of double
the allowance Of hay without sllage
and the same grain mixture raised
the feed cost to $1.14 per 100 pounds.
During the periods when silage was
fed, the animals gained approximately
one-half- pound daily in live weight.
When hay formed the sole roughage,
the loss in live weight was double
this amount. This represents a differ
ence of approximately 1.5 pounds DER
day in body weight in favor of the
silage ration.

Fireproof Barns to Cut
Immense Farm Fire Loss

Savings of thousands OF dollars in
buildings and valuable cattle herds
destroyed every year In the. United
States by disastrous fires may be ac...
complished In a few years by. means
of the fireproof barn, described In the
Farm and Fireside Magazine.
ancestral barns that can be passed
on from father to son and on to the
next generation are likely as result
of successful construction Of such
fireproof barn at the Iowa State college
experiment station, says the magazine.
"If this type of barn proves as sue
cessful as it now appears to be 1t
will be possible to do this thing at
an expense not exceeding the cost OF
frame construction by more than %
to so per cent" it continues. "The
new type of barn is called masonry
arch barn, which, as the name re-
veals, is made entirely of masonry and
with the upper story In the form of
an arch. 1t is built Of tile with re-
inforced concrete floors and reinforced
concrete ribs in the roof. Since 1t is
made entirely Of masonry there will
be no expense in Keeping it painted
with the exception Of the windows and
door frames. Made of construction
material that is noncombustible this
building would retard fire to such
an extent as to prevent destruction
and IL would also enable live stock
In 1t to be removed safely"

Agricultural Hints !.

Straw can be fed to better advan-
tage with silage than In any other
way.
SiIage whether from . corn. cane,
kafir or sunflowers combines well with
alfalfa hay.
The silage will give better results
when fed with a little dry roughage
than when fed alone.
Alfalfa makes an excellent hog pas
ture wherever the crop does we'll. It
generally does well where there Is
plenty of lime in the soil.
From standpoint of feeding value
and selling price, the advantage en-
ioyed by the well equipped hay grow
er Is of utmost importance.
Some of the miniature tomatoes will
prove popular with the children as
well as being fine for preserves. Red
plum, red cherry, red currant and
their yellow varieties are ell good.

Calcium Arsenate Is
Efficient for Bugs
One Of Best Poisons to Eradi-
cate Potato Beetle.

Calcium arsenate, Familiarity known
as an efficient poison for the control
Of the cotton boil weevil. is also one
of the best poisons for the common
potato bug or Colorado potato beetle.
Calcium arsenate Is the cheapest
poison that potato growers can use at
the present time for the control Of the
Colorado potato beetle" says G. Fl.
Brannen, extension entomologist at
the North Carolina State college.
Those who grow potatoes know that
this insect can completely. destroy the
plantsNin a short while IL no control
measure Is used. Calcium arsenate
may be used either as a dust or as a
spray and is absolutely effective IL
properly applied"
In using the material as dust, Mr..
Brannon advises that the potato
plants be covered well. The amount
to use will depend on the size of the
plants and the material maybe ap-
piled satisfactorily If the regular cot
ton busters are used. There is little

much poison should not be used for
the sake Of economy. Recent tests
show that good control is secured by
this method of poisoning. However,
1t should be kept in mind that the ar
senate is not control for plant dis
eases but for insects alone.
II desired, spray may be made
by using two pounds of the calcium
arsenate to so gallons Of water. For
the grower with only small acreage,
spray may be prepared by using ten
tablespoonful to three gallons of wa
ter.
In any event, the applications Of
either dust or spray should be started
as soon as the beetles appear in num-
bers and should be continued just as
often as the BEETLES become numerous.

Kentucky Tears
Up Stone Fences
Pulverized Limestone Need
ed by Soil to Stimulate
Many Crops.

They are tearing up the farm fences
to make the crops grow In Kentucky's
famous bluegrass region! And while
that statement may appear silly at
first glance, 1t Is exactly what is hap
pening.
The explanation Is simple. The
bluegrass soil. under cultivation now
for $50 years, has grown acid for want
of lime. There are hundreds of miles
of picturesque old stone fences. some
built a century ago. winding around
the farms of this region--and. the
stone Is limestone. There you areI
SAIL over central Kentucky. and in
many other sections of the state, lime
stone pulverizers are busy grinding W
these relics" reports c. A. Lewis in
the April issue of The Farm Journal
Thousands of tons of fence stones
have been crushed and spread upon
the soil in the last year"
The movement began more than a.
year ago when a survey of Bourbon
county by the county farm agent, L. Il.
Wellington, showed that clover and
other legumes so much needed for the
fine horses and cattle which make the
region famous could no longer be
grown profitably.
County Agent Starts Movement.
Wellington laid his facts before a
committee of landowners and the re-
suit was IA limestone crushers oper-
ating along the fences, many of which
had already tumbled down with age
and been overgrown with briars and
bushes. In nearby Eayette county,
Jonas We'll, prominent landowner,
took the lead, crushing hundreds of
rods of the stone fences around his
lands, spreading the lime on his soil
land increasing his crop yields In
some cases 100 per cent. With such
a profitable example before them. 9TH
err farmers and counties have taken
up the movement rapidly.
'.Most of the fences were built OF
soft limestone. which now requires
little labor to make 1t ready for the
pulverizer," explains The Farm Jour-
mars correspondent. Lie Cru6uci 10
moved along the fence rows where
the rock is put into it at minimum
of labor. In some cases rod Of stone
fence will make FIVE tons Of ground
limestone.
Cost Of Limestone.
"Since limestone can be crushed
from the fences for at least 81 ton
less than it can be obtained from the
Kentucky quarries, that means that
rod of stone fence is worth So. And
this SIS rod will more than pay the
cost of putting up modern woven
wire fence. Many miles of such mod
ern fencing, supported. with iron or
concrete posts. have taken the place
of the tumbllng rows Of stones"
A second consideration which has
made the demolition of the old stone
fences popular is that attempts to re-
pair them after century of wear
have proved both costly and ineffeet-
i've.
