Lambs Did Well When
Fed on Russian Thistle

One of the surprising outcomes
Of lamb-feeding experiment at the
Akron (Colo.) station, was the re-
suit of feeding Russian thistle, an
abundant weed pest on Colorado
farms. Eleven lots of twenty
lambs each, averaging SO pounds,
were fed ninety days. Russian this
tie, ground and fed as roughage,
was found worth S4.5S per ton in
feed replacement value. Some Of
the thistles fed were raked out Of
fence corners, while others had
been cut green and allowed 10 cure
for the test. Some Of the whole
thistles were fed to Gull lambs on
the side and 1t was found that 1t
is not necessary to grind them II
they are cut when green. The
common Canada thistle of the East

Sow Soys in Wheat

Double cropping Of wheat land Is
possible In some sections of the
corn belt. w. B. Bingham, Gibson
county, Indiana, seeded soybeans in
80 acres Of his wheat He used
three pecks Of Sables an acre. The
wheat was combined In June and
made 20 bushels an acre. The sea-
son after that was very dry and as
a result the soybeans did not make
good crop. They also were har-
vested,with a combine. c. NJ. East,
county agent, reports that despite
the low yield. Mr.. Bingham is con-
vinced the plan Is successful and
is planning to adopt 1t as a regular
practice.
Roy Siebeking, vanderburg coun-
ty, Indiana, has followed this plan
since 1923 when he harvested 20
bushels of wheat an acre from a
field which had been in soybeans
the year before. Beans volunteered
and made "a bushels an acre on the

Plant Sweet Clover
for Best Pastures
Conclusion Arrived At by

(By E. P. Reed, Extension Specialist,

Pastures Of sweet clover are more
than twice as good as ordinary blue
grass pastures. A pasture contain
ing a good stand Of sweet clover will
support two or thre 1OO0pound
stock units an acre.
l know of an acre Of sweet clo-
yer pasture that produced 500 worth
Of milk at cents a quart, of a
nine-acre field in Putnam county
seeded with a sweet clover mixture
that furnished pasture for 100 sheep
and so hogs throughout the grow
ing season, and these were unable
to keep the growth down.
Another field Of II acres last year
supported so ewes with lambs,
cows, 20 winter pigs and y sows
with spring pigs, from spring to the
middle of August.
Hogs and dairy cattle pasturing
on sweet clover require a smaller
daily grain ration. and as a cash
crop for seed sweet clover is de-
pendable, producing literally when
ever grown. Yields Of sweet clover
seed are much larger than are seed
yields of other legumes. Yields
viii average five bushels an acre,
and frequently as large as eight
to twelve bushels.
Farm records have shown that a
combination Of live stock and cash
crop farming systems gives the high
est returns for labor and capital in
vested. Sweet clover, which pro-
duces both a seed crop and pasture,
fits into such a combination ad-
mirably.

Salt on Asparagus

Asparagus will stand salt applica-
tions heavy enough to kill many
weeds. Enough to make the ground
white as with a heavy frost would
be needed to have much permanent
effect on weeds. The better plan Is
to have the plants far enough apart
so that it is possible to get around
each one with a hoe, and hand-pull
the weeds in the clump.
There has been wide difference of
opinion about the use Of salt on as
paragus. at one time sailing it was
common practice, the idea being that
it was good for the asparagus. Now
few do this. With suitable soil and
plenty Of plant food, good aspara-
gus can be grown with or without
salt.-Rural New Yorker.

more remote countries, and Jalu-
ary !, 1881, Is the latest date for
which comparable information Is
available In full.
The United States then had TO-
POI, ,576 telephones, or more than
half of the worlds total. The
United States and Canada together
had more than twice as many tele-
phones as the whole Of EruOpe.
Thirty per cent Of the worlds total
telephones were in Europe and 8
per cent were scattered widely
about the globe. Adverse business
conditions slowed down the rate
of telephone growth in 1880 and
even caused a few countries to lose
telephones. The total number Of
telephones in the world increased
by S65,729 during that year. The
increase of 1858 telephones in
the United States during the year
exceeded that in any other country.
Privately owned systems operate
more than two-thirds of the worlds
telephones. In the United States
all telephones are operated by pri-
yate companies. This country is
not only equipped with more tele-
phones than all the rest of the
world put together, but it is like
wise outstanding in the number Of
it's telephones relative to popula-
ton.
With 1874 telephones for each 100
people. the relative prevalence Of
telephones in the United States Is
more than eight times that In Eu-
rope. Canada, with IA telephones
per 100 people is the only country
whose telephone facilities In pro-
portion to population approach
those of the United States. New
Zealand takes third place with 1912
telephones per 100 people. followed
by Denmark, with 90; Sweden,
with 8.7, and Australia with 81 tel
ephones per 100 people. Most of
the telephones in both Canada and
Denmark are operated by private
companies.
Germany ranks second to the
United States in absolute number
of telephones, but has only FIVE tele-
phones per 100 people. Great Brit
ain has 4.3 and France only 2.8. In
all three of these countries the gov
ernment operates the telephone sys-
tenn. Argentina, with 2.6 telephones
per 100 people, has nearly one-half
of all the telephones in South
America. Japan and the Union Of
South Africa, each with only Ia
telephones per 100 people. lead in
telephone development in Asia and
Africa, respectively.
The small towns and rural Sec
tions of America are notably well
provided with telephones facilities.
Communities in this country with
less than $4,000 population each
have at their disposal an average
of 1872 telephones for each 100 in
habitants. In Europe even the
larger cities are for the most part
less adequately supplied with tele-
phones than these small American
communities.

There were none of her race
with whom to exchange gossiping

floors above her former admirers.
But once flirt, always filrt. The

her perched on the sill of the open
