A Meeting of Farmers to Consider Ways and Means to Obtain More | Bushels of a Better Quality—How to Grow the One Best Variety 8o That all Rye Shipped From Any One 8tation Will Be Free From Mixture of Weeds or Other Seeds. By F. H. Demaree, Agronomist, J. L Case Plow Works. [National Crop Improvement Service.] The busimess side of farming at- tracts more attention every year. The discussion of farm problems has proven of so much benefit that the Institutes and farmer clubs are hold- Ing meetings to compare notes as to best methods. A rye meeting covers the following subjects: 1. Methods of preparing ground. 2. What rotation and what should rye follow. 3. Building up soil, 4. Preparation of seed bed. 5. How to select one best type of seed. 6. Where and how to get it. 7. How to {induce neighbors to grow one variety. 8. When to apply manure. 9. Experiences with seeding, 10. Depth of plow and when, 11. Spring working. 12. The seed grader. 13. Treatment of seed for diseases. 14. Hew much seed to acre. 15. Best time for seeding. 16. Effect of frost after seeding. 17. Cutting for hay. 18. Rye as feed. 19. When to harvest. 20. Threshing. 21. A graded price at elevator ac sording to quality. ROAD BUILDING. The Auto Truck the Most Efficlent Power Machine For this Purpose —A Mile and a Half a Day of Good Road. 3y E. R. Bowen, of Avery Company, Peorla, lllinols. National Crop Improvement Association.] The auto truck used as motive power to pull graders and drags or sther road making devices is fast com- ng into use. The county commission- »rs and road overseers in many coun- ies In Illinois and other states have ilready purchased from agricultural implement dealers the auto truck ‘or this purpose and in all cases have found it to be of great service in road ouilding. It is found that no difficulty .8 encountered in descending or as- cending grades and maintaining a iniform pull and at the same time making a finished job. The auto truck will run at from 1 to L5 miles an hour, will carry three tons of material and facilitate the work of building concrete culverts and sther road drains. Mile and Half a Day. For the work the rear wheels are equipped with side rims which have great steel lugs. These teeth bite Into the soil and give the tractor its purchase. Marks left by the lugs, however, are slight and do not dis- figure the surface of the roadway. There is nothing fragile or breakable about the truck. It is bullt along the {ines of Dbower, as can be seen from its Ippearance Tire trouble is entirely prevented, the rims being of steel in which wooden plugs are imbedded. The roughest surface of the worst sountry roads can have no effect op these. o] e TS By practical demonstrat(on it is proven that a machine can finish a mile and a half of road a day under rdinary conditions. RYE IN WISCONSIN. Rye a General Crop and Can Be Grown on a Wide Variety of Soils. [National Crop Improvement Service.] “We have two pedigreed varieties 5f rye which I think are the best strains in the United States today. One party after testing the pedigree rye agreed to take all the rye Wiscon- 3in could produce of this strain at an advanced price. We will have a large juantity of it grown this vear so we will be in position to supply this pedi- zree seed rye in large and small quan- tities about August 1st,” said R. A. Moore, agronomist, Wisconsin Experi- ment Station. “The rye should be sown the last week in August or first week in September in order to do its very best. Rye does well on soils that are too light to grow wheat, oats | and barley. Rye Fine Cover Crop. “Rye is a general crop and can be grown on a wide variation of solls. [t can be grown to advantage on low mucky soils, clay, sand or prairie soils. [t makes an exceedingly fine cover ecrop and affords good pasture for stock in the late fall and during the winter and early spring. It can be pastured heavily without much detri- ment to the crop. As soon as the stock Is taken off the rye comes on ex- teedingly well. “We hope to get rye disseminated extensively throughout our state and another year we want to be able to grow sufficient of this rye to plant the whole rye acreage of the TUnited Btates, providing the farmers desire 7 do so.” LEARN YOUR SOIL. [National Crop Improvement Service.) First learn your soil, then find the erops to fit the soil. Low ylelds will poon bring ruin. Work for quality first, then quantity. Making the farm pay is just the same as making any pther business pay. Know the eco- romlc and climatic conditions of the ocality and choose the farming syse um that accords with conditions.

Copyright I9|2TheHmalKuwnbun- Fine Clothes for Men $10 to $30 Get Acquainted With Our Way, It Wwill Pay You, First to Use Chloroform. Chloroform an as anaesthetic was first used on the 30th of September, 1846, by Dr. W. T. G. Morton, a den- tist, of Boston, in a case of tooth ex- traction, and thereafter by him in many difficult operatlons. The newt of the discovery reached Bngland in December, 1846, and British dentists immediately began to wuse it. Sir James Simpson, a Scotch physiclan (1811-1870) was the first to use it in hospital practice and this he did in| 1847. His discovery was considered independent of that by the Boston dentist and in 1866 he was knighted. He had a public funeral when he died and a statue of him in bronze stands in Edinburgh. Drinking Water With Food. It is a trifle disconcerting to be told that when the thrifty housewife ex- pends from 20 to 28 cents per pound ‘for the best cuts of beef about 60 per cent of the sum is being paid for wa~ ter. Yet such is the case, about 60 per cent of the bulk of uncooked beef or mutton being water. . . . The flesh of pigeons is about 70 per cent| water, that of fowls and ducks 65 per cent, while a really fat goose may have as little as 38 per cent of water | In its composition. The flesh of fish varies considerably in the quantity of water contained, the figures ranging, according to the kinds of fish, from 40 to 80 per cent.—Popular Mechanics. Had One Resemblance. One night, in a Texas town, John McCullough’s company was playing “Ingomar,” and young Sothern was to be the leader of the barbarian army. During the day he and his compan- lons-in-arms ransacked the town for fur coverings in which to appear on the stage. They secured some skins which had been imperfectly cured. In the scene where the barbarians rushed on McCullough the tragedian stood aghast and almost forgot his lines. When the curtain fell he turned to the fur-covered battalion and said: “Boys, you don’t look like a barbarian army, but I'm d-——d if you don't smell like one.” No Satiety of Knowledge. We see in all other pleasures there is satiety, and after they be used their verdure departeth . . . But of knowledge there is no satiety; satis- faction and appetite are perpetually interchangeable and therefore it ap: peareth to be good in itself simply without fallaéy or accident—Francis Bacon.
