W. chieftain, who wae to have begun serving a 20-year sent ence at Leavenworth penitentiary this | week, is now in Russia, according to | information reaching federal at AJR POCKETS are dangerous things. Many a man and horse has discovered as much by dropping through air pockets in the ice on the river or lake in winter. There are bad air pockets in your fields, too, just as there are “air holes” in the ice. In practically every field there are any number of air pockets under the surface, caused by one furrow strip overlapping another unless the field has been disked both before and after plowing. These air pockets are just as big a menace to the growing crops as air pockets in the ice are to menand horses who venture onto the ice. When the growing roots of your corn or grain thrust themselves into one of thése pockets, they find, instead of moisture, nothing but air. They are “drowned” by this surplus air supply .before they can grow through the pocket into the sub-soil underneath. The plant dies. If there are many pockets, many plants die. Don't let your crop “skate on dangerous ice.” Do away with the air pockets. A Dunham Culti-Packer will not only pack the soil intothese pockets but will also crush all hard lumps and clods on the surface which may have been skipped or dug up while harrowing. There is no “wear out” to a Dun! Culti-Packer. We have one waiting for you.
