Tomato Fertilizers

Tomatoes do best when the fertilizer
for them Is placed about three inches
under ground, tests conducted by hor-
ticultural specialists Of the Ohio State
university this past summer would In
dictate. In this demonstration t0ma-
toes yielded 1914 tons to the acre with
out fertilizer, while an application Of
500 pounds Of 4-12-4 on the surface in
a ring about each plant brought the
yield up to 1874 tons. No additional
yield above that Of surface treatment
was noted with the fertilizer one inch
under ground; with it placed two
inches beneath the surface the yield
was 1916 tons: while the greatest
yield, 1925 tons, was obtained with
fertilizer placed three inches deep.
A lower return was secured with the
fertilizer placed deeper. With toma-
toes worth $40 ton the So spent for
fertilizer returned net gain of $29.64
over its cost, plus its application and
increased labor due to larger crop.

YOUNG GIVEN NEW
IDEA OF IDLENESS

Things have changed more than q
bit. No one talks about easy money
The children, the young people, are
bearing and seeing that idleness
isa CHASTITY thing. They are afraid
Of idleness. Even they have learned
that easy money isn't too reliable.
We thought that the days of great
personal achievement in this country
might be over. There wasn't much
unexplored land left, nor many mines
to discover. But as things stand now.
there are enormous jobs to be done
on the vitalizing and organization Of
finance and industry. It will take
just as much energy and courage as
can be brought to 1t.
The ideals Of all these children are
going to be better than they might
have been If things had gone on at
their swift, luxurious, self-indulgent
pace. They are being brought up to
realize that employment is a vital
consideration Of an entire country
and to see how interlocked social
groups are.-Margaret Culkin Ban

Splendid Results From
Fight on Hog Cholera

The control Of hog cholera by i'm
munization and sanitary practices is
showing encouraging results. The
gross number Of reported outbreaks
was 1855 for the fiscal year 1881 as
compared with 4,162 for the year 1880,
a decrease Of "a outbreaks. The NOR
tality rate for hog cholera during the
last year is estimated as being the
lowest since the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture has kept rec
ord.
According to federal veterinarians,
the decline in hog cholera IL being
fastened probably by an increasing
manufacture and use Of anti-hog-
cholera serum. Records of licensed
biological establishments show that
serum production for the fiscal year
1881 was about as per cent greater
than that OF 1880. Another helpful
influence in control has been the CO.
operation Of swine breeders with fed
eral and state live stock officials in
preventing the exposure Of hogs to
the disease.

Keep an Open Mind

There is perhaps no other branch
of farming in which an open mind Is
more needed than in fruit-growing.
There are certain principles which are
fundamental and live, but practices OF
one generation. or even decade, may be
obsolete the next. A grower was
taken to task at a meeting, by a man
who had heard him express a different
opinion about the matter under dis
cussion two years before. II changed
my mind" he replied. 'That is the
right and duty Of every man when he
finds that he Is wrong"
He was a practical fruit-grower
and keen observer of methods and re-
suits in his business. Some Of his
plans of score of years ago might
be discarded now, and he. If living,
would be the first one to do 1t. New
things about the behavior Of varieties,
handling of trees and soils, adaptable
ity of various lands to Orcharding,
ETC., are coming up yearly.

Worthwhile Advice in
Farm Relief Program

"Sure farm RELIEF suggestions are
made by A. 81. Tedmon. Arapahoe
county agricultural extension agent,
in circular to farmers Of his county.
Tedmon's program, copy Of which
has been received by the Colorado Ag-
ricultural college, Is as follows:
I. Milk few good cows: feed rec
commended ratiOns.
2. Fatten one pig for every two
adult members Of the family; cure the
meat properly.
8. Keep at least 100 good hens, cor
rectly housed and fed.
A. Raise a good garden; water from
windmill If possible.
8. Plant cash crops only, which show
little or no surplus. @
6. Grow all your own stock feed.
Z. Butcher fat cows and steers
trade meat with neighbors.
8. Raise your own living; keep your
roof tight.
9. Get down to earth and do the
best you can today.
10. Drive horse until you can af-
ford to buy gasoline.

Growing Crops Not
Benefited by Straw
Reduces Amount Of Soil
Nitrogen Available.

In 12-year test on the Ohio State
university farm at. Wooster, one ton Of
straw applied to wheat in December
increased the average yield of wheat
by four-tenths Of a bushel, whereas
ton put on early In the fall decreased
1t by one bushel. Two tons Of straw,
applied late, decreased the yield by 3.5
bushels, and when applied early, by SO
bushels. In 1917 the mulched wheat
yielded % bushels per acre. while that
not covered was q total loss. This
was the only year-it was effective.
Investigations at a number of expert
ment stations have shown that applica-
lions Of straw mulches result in re-
duction In the amount Of soil nitrogen
available to the growing crop.
Top-dressing wheat with manure is
quite different from using straw alone,
because Of the higher nitrogen content
of the manure and the available ph0s-
phorus and potassium content. Top
dressing wheat with manure has in
creased the yield In many cases.

Don't Fatten Brood Sows

Brood sows that will farrow spring
filters should not be overfed. Overfat
sows often have weak pigs and the
mortality rate is usually very high. If
the sOws are to be good mixers they
should have the run of good pasture
during the winter and spring, and If
this is impossible they should be fed
alfalfa or clover hay in racks. Their
ration needs good supply of protein,
either tankage or soybean meal. Whole
soybeans are satisfactory for sows
but not for fattening hogs. Corn alone
is not sufficient on the ration. Use
good supplements and some minerals.
Commercial minerals are easily avail
able or home-mixed minerals can be
used satisfactorily.-Prairie Farmer.

Housing a Bull

Writing in an English dairy journal,
breeder of that country makes among
others this interesting statement re-
garding the housing Of bulls: "The
way that has been successful so far
has been our endeavor to let the bulls
see and hear as much as every one
can in their necessarily restricted
lives, and never shut them up where
they can do neither and therefore
have empty brains. Satan finds lots
of things. no doubt, for idle hands to
do. but nothing to what he does for a

Agricultural Squibs

Cows that are forced to go to the
creek for their drinking water in win.
ter give about 10 per cent less milk
than those that drink from drinking
cups at the stanchion.
Thick-skinned, highly-colored onions
which are in demand, can be grown
by increasing the supply of superphos-
phate fertilizer or by using copper
sulphate.
Only the efficiently conducted busl-
ness can survive in these times. The
farmer should keep accurate records
of his operations and business tran
sactions.
Spraying machinery for fruit and
vegetable crops Is now a necessary
part of the commercial growers equip
ment.
Manufacturers of the United States
are spending on research $13 for
every $1,000 invested; agriculture is
spending 431s cents per $1,000.
Even though the bottom of the hog
cycle has almost been reached, rural
economists believe that there will not
be very large increase In hog pro-
duction during the next three years.

Silage Requirements

Aside from the normal requirements
in making silage, the essential factors
in putting corn fodder in the silo are:
(D good job Of cutting must be
done; (2) plenty Of water must be add
ed at the time of filling if the silage is
to ferment and keep properly. The
approximate quantity of water needed
is weight equal to the weight of the
fodder. A part Of this water should
be added at the cutter to be blown in
with the cut fodder. Some water
must be added in the silo to the sur
face as the silo is filed. Some farm
ers run water in their silos overnight.
