WHEN’ A GIRL IS IN LOVE

Girls in love ain't no' use during the whole blessed week- Sundays they're lookin’ down the road, expectin' he'll come. Sunday afternoons they can't think of anything else cause he's here! Monday mornings they're kind of sleepy and dreamy and slimpsy and good for nothing on Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday they get absentminded and begin to look off toward Sunday again, an’ mope , around and let the dishwater get cold right under their noses. Frii day they break dishes and go off in the best room and snivel an' look out of the winder- Saturday they have queer spurts of workin’ like all possessed, an' spurts of frizzin’ their hair. An' Sunday begin it all over again.—Exchange.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and for years it was. supposed to be incurable. Doctors prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cur & with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly influenced by constitutional Conditions and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Medicine, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,- Toledo, Ohio, is a constitutional remedy, is tagen internally and acts through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. One Hundred Dollars reward is offered for any case that Hall's Catarrh Medicine fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. F. J CHENEY & CO.. Toledo, O. Sold by druggists. 75c.

MONEY IN BARLEY.

[Natieul Crss ■ ■■meaest Scnfca.] i Those who have been disappointed in getting spring wheat seed are able to still make an even more profitable crop by putting in barley. The Wisconsin Experiment Station with headquarters at the University in charge of R. A. Moore, can furnish on telegram orders pedigreed barley by express in almost any quantities. The seedsmen are well supplied with this seed, and farmers who have otherwise idle land, can still make barley-raising a great success. Barley should be a leading crop wherever spring wheat can be grown and in many cases farther south where other crops have to be plowed up.

CORN ROOT WORM

200,000.000 Bu Lost to Corn Crop Annually by This Pest. [National Crop Improvement Service.} The damage done to corn in the com belt is estimated to be 200,000,000 bushels annually. In our mad scramble to get com into the ground this year, we do not want to overlook this tremendous waste. Next to poor seed com. the corn root worm is the greatest source of loss to com. The remedy is the rotation of crops. Never grow more than two crops of corn consecutively on the same ground. If you had corn root worm bad last year and it is too late to put in anything else, you had better change to barley. Your seedsman can still furnish you with some excellent seed barley. If you do put in corn on that land, be careful to give your land more than a usual preparation. The time is late, and we will have to bend every energy to plant our com crop.

"Dry Farming” Needed Everywhere.

[National Crop Improvement Service.] Wfepn we say “dry farming” we immediately begin to think of the western plains where the rainfall is deficient. We all admit that they should take unusual pains in conserving their moisture. Well we ought to be ashamed of ourselves in the humid territory. When comes along a year like this, we think we are terribly abused and vet in any of this territory we have had more rain than Western Kansas and Nebraska gets any year. Therefore, let us take dry farming methods to ourselves.. Because in some years the rain comes when wo want it, is no excuse for neglecting conservation of moisture. ■What is this dry farming? Let us take it up with the clubs and make it an institute subject. Let us get our best farmers to agree to practice it. There is no drought year in the corn belt which does not have more moist-' ure than necessary, if conserved, to raise a crop of com.

POWER ENOUGH

Work Your Tractors Night and Day and Plow Every Acre. [National Cn>» Imn’-ovement Service.! Many farmers will not be able to put in their whole acreage on account of the lack of horses or other power. Every tractor in this county should work night and day as long as there remains an acre unplowed. There is still time to put in barley, and corn and potatoes, all three of which are worth almost their weight in gold- We appeal to every tractor owner to offer its services to any man who will not be able to get his soil prepared other-, wise.

TERMS USED IN FEEDING

Scientific Nomenclature Reduced to ' Every-Day Meanings. [National Crop IniprovetfWhtService]” Stockfood consists briefly of three chief parts or compounds, omitting the water and minerals. They are: Protein (containing nitrogen), a muscle former. Fat (not containing nitrogen), a fuel or fattening substance. Carbohydrates(meaning made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen). These three substances are called organic matter, because they will burn. Mineral matter is called inorganic. An animal can live on protein alone, but would not under normal conditions, because protein (or albumen) is only found mixed with fat in the case of meat and with fat and carbohydrates in the case of plants and cereals. Familiar examples of protein are white of egg, lean meat and the gluten which can be chewed out: of wheat. Fat or oil we all know. Carbohydrates include . sugar, Starch, cellulose, fibre, gums, etc. To keep alive and not lose weight an animal must jjave small amounts of prOTbin and larger amounts of fat or carbohydrates. They serve as building material to replace worn-out tissue and flesh and also to furnish power (energy) to move, work, and do all the inside work of the body. The ash or mineral matter furnishes bone material and is also necessary but abundant in nature. A growing animal needs plenty of protein and ash (bone food) and of car-' bohydrates and fat. A grown-up animal needs less of either the first two, but plenty of the last two. A pregnant animal needs plenty of food for its unborn young.

BUYING FEED INGREDIENTS

Difficult to Buy Proper Feed Stuffs at Random. [National Crop Improvement Service.] There are not a dozen feed stores in the country that carry in stock all the ingredients of a first-class mixed feed at all times and at reasonable prices, and usually they do not carry feeds of the same high quality used by the mixers who work scientifically through a laboratory. This is human nature. Competition compels a dealer to sell the cheapest quality. The best quality of feed is seldom carried, because the average buyer will not pay the highest price. A good many experiment stations in a general way will advocate that a farmer mix all his own feed, but they are human like the rest of us and they Will use recognized brands in their own feeding operations rather than go to the trouble and take the time to follow their own advice. | There are a good many herds at experiment stations which are kept as sort of a clinic for professors to practice theories upon. The poor brutes are used a good deal as guinea pigs in hospital practice. On the other, hand, at the experiment stations are to be found many of the finest animals ever bred. * | The mixed feeds of the first grade can be fed alone or in connection with home-grown corn, oats or barley. To do this widens your ration, and it is correct to do so if it. will reduce your cost of feeding. Mixed feeds, therefore, are largely a matter of arithmetic. I You can usually get the result far lees money than by feeling more axpensive grains separately.

THE MANORIAL INGREDIENTS OF FEEDS.

[National Crop Improvement Service.] Nitrogen is the most important and most valuable fertilizing element supplied by feeds, and it is in this element that they show the greatest . variation. The Connecticut Experiment Station states that it was found that the average mixed fertilizer contained 2.95 per cent nitrogen and showed in a table that eighteen of fifty-two different feeds contained 3.93 per cent. • Among this list is cottonseed and lin1 seed meals, gluten seed, middlings, brewers’ and distillers’ products, and a few of the feed mixtures. It is obvious, therefore, that a wise selection of feeds enhances the value of the manure and consequently plays an important part in farm economy.

BARLEY PRODUCTS.

[National Crop Improvement Service.] Prof. J., P. Street, in the Annual Report of the Connecticut Agricultural Station for 1912, says: “That malt sprouts should receive more consideration from dairymen, especially in comparison with many of the proprietary mixed feeds containing only from to one-half as much protein as malt sprouts, prices.being considered.” . . He also states that dried brewers’ grains, prices considered, in connection with the seed’s high analysis, is one of the cheapest high-grade feeds on the market.

WHAT’S IN A MIXED FEED?

[National Crop Improvement Service;] A high-grade mixed feed suitable for any kind or breed of dairy cow should have high protein content, with an exact digestible analysis. It can be mixed with corn, oats, barley, hay or other forage, which should be grown upon the farm, provided the mixture would save the farmer any money. As a rule, the-ingredients of the highest grades are corn, distillers’ grains, gluten feed, cottonseed meal, hominy meal, malt sprouts, brewers’ grains, linseed meal, pure wheat bran and salt. The best grades contain no cheap fillers of any kind and so the food is highly concentrated and roughage can be supplied at home.
