[National Crop Improvement Service.l It would seem advisable to first con- slder just what purpose we are em- deavoring to raise rye. Rye is now being used largely for teeding as well as distilling purposes. For the farmer who feeds his crop, the vield per acre is of first importance. [t on the other hand the crop is to be told, attentlon to & few usually neglected items will make several dol- lars difference in the value of every acre. What 1s desired of the rye crop? The interest of everybody comcerned ln the rye crop is in the production of a high yleld of uniform grain. Let me repeat, “high yleld and uniform grain;” more bushels of one type of kernel, one size of kernel, one color of grain. How to Start a Rye Center. Any man interested in obtaining the best results in rye should circulate the following agreement and get a hundred or more signers.

COST OF POWER. A Wide Difference In the Cost of Horses and Mechanical Power on the Farm. By Raymond Olney, M. Rumley Co., La Porte, Ind. [National Crop Improvement Service.] The first cost of a tractor as com- pared to that of horses necessary to eunply an aqual amannt of nawar must always be considered in the growing of crops. An engine which will do the work of 15 good horses sells for $1,700. Fifteen horses at $150 each (which is. a low price) would cost $2,250. In this case the advantage of tho tractor is that it can be worked fo the limit of its capacity, and not be materially injured in so doing, which is not possible with horses. According to Government figures, in southeastern Minnesota, taken some time ago, the cost of feeding a horse for oné year is $73.89, and for 15 horses it would be, in round numbers, $1,100.00. These horses average 948 work hours per year. A 15 H. P. trac- tof working for 1,000 hours will burn about 3,000 gallons of kerosene, which will cost about 6 cents per gallon. This gives a fuel bill of $180.00. Ofil, grease and minor items would not exceed $100.00. This shows a large balance on the tractor.side. RYE IN THE POTATO ROTATION. Rye Better"Than Wheat in Potato Ro- tatlon—No More Care Than Wheat or Barley. . Vy F. H. Demaree, Agronomist, J. I. Case Plow Works. [National Crop Improvement Service.] There is a decided tendency among sotato growers to substitute rye in the sotato rotation in the place of wheat. Che original Terry rotation was wheat, :lover and potatoes. This rotation is cheoretically and practically correct tor potato growers and is widely used throughout the whole country. Since wheat is more uncertain than rye, however, many growers are using the |last named crop as they cannot afford to lose one crop out of three, especially snce that crop is the one that nurses ap the young clover. Many uses can be made of the rye ¢rop. Statistics show that the yield of grain in the United States has been somewhat higher per acre than wheat and practically of the same farm talue. It is mo more trouble to care tor than bearded wheat or barley. The crop can be pastured early and s especially good for brood sows. The grain may also be allowed to ¢ipen and then be hogged down in- stead of cut and threshed. For the potato grower, however, perhaps the best method would be to cu® and ‘hresh the crop. RYE AS FOOD. (National Crop Improvement Service.] Statyre in European and American geoples no doubt is the result of con- sumption of the two balanced grains, wheat and rye. Rye is even superior to wheat in this respect, and the diet specthlists of cthe world are urging its greater con- sumption as the grain of highest value for & human food. Sale of Montana Lands.

Astonlished the Conductor. Rev. Dr. George W. Field of Bangor is a very absent-minded man. When on the street, in the cars, or even at dinner, his mind is often so fully con- centrated upon the subject of his next sermon that he appears to take no no- tice of surrounding -circumstances. At one time, traveling between Ban- gor and Boston as the conductor of the train, passing through the car making collections of tickets, came to | Dr. Field with hand outstretched, the reverend gentleman, glancing up quickly from a reverie, looked into his face a moment, then extended his hand and said, “Good afternoonm, sir; but I think you have a little advant- age of me, What name?” Of Su ggestions For Rent, For Sale, help wanted, wanted to trade. to exchange, etc. buyer and seller together. cent a word.
