Corked Over Potatoes
Will terminate Earlier

Cutting seed potatoes two weeks
before planting and then keeping
them under the right conditions to
cork over win bring about early GER
.mination, more even growth, and In
creased yield, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture announces.
Although many growers cut the
seed several days before planting.
the seed sometimes decays. The de-
partment says this is largely be-
cause the cut seed is not kept In the
right condition. The department
found that the seed gave best re-
suits when II was kept at tenn
perature of 60 degrees f, and at
a relative humidity Of So per cent
Most farmers can easily bring the
temperature of their potato storage
room to the right point by using an
oil stove or some other heating
method. For practical purposes. II
the air is fairly moist. the humidity
will be about right. Putting wet
burlap bags on the floor or hanging
them up help keep the air moist.
The seed should be treated before
cutting.
After the seed potatoes are cut
they may be placed In barrels or
sacks until ready for planting.
They should not be spread out. as
they do not cork over properly when
spread out.

Farm Horses Not

There will be no such thing as I'm.
employment for the 100000 horses
and mules on Illinois farms this
year, for farmers are going to use
them to the limit as a source of
economical power.
Whenever farmers gathered al
meetings during the winter, they dis
cuSsed the savings made by work
ing their horses steadily last year,
and they are going to do 1t again
this season. For one thing, this
saved expense. In addition, the
horses and mules ate about 22,500,.
coo bushels Of corn, or about one
seventeenth Of the 1892 crop, and
sc, 100000 bushels OF oats, or more
than one-fifth Of the 1892 crop. 9th.
erwise this grain would have gone
on an already overcrowded market
and at best would have sold for less
than the cost Of production.
Farmers interest in the increased
use Of horses was evident more than
a year ago when a survey at county
live stock schools indicated that one
third Of those enrolled used Eve or
more horses In one team for plow-
ing and other heavy field work. The
farmers had found that any i'm
plement can be pulled easily II
enough horses are hitched to It.
This past winter farmers ex.
pressed still greater determine
tion to. let the horses do their BIT
to furnish an outlet for cheap grain
and thus cut down cash costs for
farm work. One farmer OF Mclean
county, for instance. plowed about
200 acres last year with an eight
horse team. He says that this team
is going to enable him to do most
of his field work alone this year. In
this way he hopes to keep operation
costs more nearly In line with farm
income.
Farmers are making eveners, buck
ropes and tie chains to use this
spring.

Trench Silos

A herd Of from six to fifteen ma
ture cows is best adapted for using
the trench silo. due to the cost of
building the vertical silo. AS a
usual thing the income from the
larger herds will be sufficient to
take care Of this overhead expense.
Silage can also be removed from
the vertical type much easier than
from the trench. and where there is
q large herd to feed this added labor
will make some difference. There
is no difference In the silo as far
as preservation Of the silage is con-
cerned. except In the nature Of the
land. On low fiat country, where
water has a tendency to rise In the
trench. this form Of sllo is not prac-
teal.

Mans Brief Span
on Mother Earth

Let a day OF "a hours stand as rep
resentatiye Of the possible 2,OO0,OOO.-
600 years Of this planets history,
says Sir James Jeans, British SCI
enlist, and mans presence on this
globe ESTIMATING his tenure at 4O0,-
600 years. represents but II seconds
of that cosmic day. And only within
$50 Of the last second has man had
any supportable outlook upon the
universe at ALI
Ones first reaction to this amaE-
Ing disparity between the age of the
planet and mans little day is one OF
dizziness, a vertigo reflected in much
OF our literature and politics.
At the same time. man has no war
rant in taking a hopeless attitude
toward his own efforts, especially
those Of this split second of his own
creative evolution. What he has
done is not half bad. In this mo-
ment OF time man has changed the
face of his abode, has discovered and
used its principal laws, and has In.
vested the whole process with q
meaning II never possessed in all the
long prehuman hours of that cosmic
day.
Or compare the brevIty OF this
background with the long hours
ahead e'er the sun cools and the
eternal shadow falls. Man is scarce
ly in his infancy, hardly yet born.
Against the possibility Of the future,
his progress down to date is about
that Of baby learning TO shake its
rattle.
The first feeling OF vertigo expo
rienced by the race I'm the face OF
these Supplying facts Of science is
giving way 10 a new sense Of sta
bility and security. Man is turning
with new zest to the business Of l!v-
ing wholesomely and courageously.
He is finding a new meaning in life
by giving II a meaning Of his own.
He is writing down such strange
words as peace, truth, knowledge,
friendship. brotherhood, justice. BE
Is building on this planet a kind of
life his ancestors would not recog.
nize. could they return.

Economical Dairying

The backbone Of economical dairy
ing, outside Of the productivity Of
the cows themselves. is good rough.
age and plenty Of it. Economy In
production depends more upon the
nature of the roughage, supplied to
the cows than upon the grain fed.
Too many farmers consider il to be
the other way around. That is. they
stress the need Of a well-balanced
grain ration-one that contains a
relatively high percentage of pro.
tein. Roughage is often considered
as a filler rather than a carrier
of valuable nutrient matter.
