WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE Small Boy Satifled That the Bill for His Three Days' Fun Was Not Exorbitant. At Inst little Freddy was allowed to v!It grandpa nil alone. They were great friends, and had long waited for the great day. Freddy had the time of his life. Grandpa saw that he wanted for nothing. The small hoy ate more cream buns In those throe days than he would otherwise have done In three years, while his pockets bulged all the time with candles. But there comes nn end to everything, and Freddy went home again, pale yellow of complexion, and languid and feverish. Mother promptly sent for the doctor, who ordered him to bed, and sent him some very unpleasant, but doubtless healing medicine. Grandpa came next day and was permitted to creep upstairs to see Iiot the sufferer was faring. He found the mall boy lying wan and pale on his pillow, but received a vatery smile as a welcome.

There was bad blood between the parish clerk and the minister of a certain country church. Neither of thera ever missed a chance of getting a bit of his own back. - One Sunday the clerk had a special Invitation out to church with a friend after the evening service, whereupon he asked the minister if he would mind keeping his sermon short It was too good a chance to miss. The minister took a few deep brenthv. and preached for one hour and a quarter by the clock. By this time the old clerk's wrath was at boiling point. lie hardly waited for the preacher to resume hla seat before springing up and announcing loudly: "Psalm one hundred and nineteen.

CIENTISTS EXAMINE SOILS Survey of Important Work of One of Branches of Department of Agriculture. STUDIED VARIED ACTIVITIES Bureau Took Active Part With Geo. logical Survey in Nation-Wide Search for Deposits of Nitrates and Potash. During the twenty years of its existence, the bureau of soils. United States department of agriculture, lias studied the chemical constituents of the soils of all parts of the country. It has Investigated these constituents qualitatively and quantitatively, showing their relation to one another and to plants, their solubility and permanency, and the manner of their functioning. It has studied the problem of alkalithat condition arising where soils contain an excess of soluble salts and devised methods for measuring the content of alkali in the field and for eliminating It under field conditions. It has studied hardpans, explained the manner of their formation, and suggested the means of improving lands affected 'vlth the different sorts. These various activities have involved the making of thousands of analyses and the devising of much apparatus. Public Given Advice and Counsel. Advice and counsel Is given by the bureau to the public on all matters connected with soil chemistry. The bureau has also Investigated the physical properties of soils.-It has devised apparatus for measuring the temperature of soils, the movement of water and of air and other gases in soils. The absorption of water, the extent and rate of capillary action, the effect of pressure on the concentration of Hie nutrient solution, and on the retention of that solution in the soli, the relation of soils to erosion, and many kindred problems have been worked upon. The bureau has also worked upon the problem of the fixation of nitrogen found in the air In Its experimental factory at Arlington, much advance having been made. Carried to Its logical conclusion this move will result In" supplying easily all the nitrogen the country needs In agriculture and Industry. Soil surveys have been made in all the states of the union. The surveys are of twa kinds; detailed surveys on the scale of one inch tothe mile usually covering county units, and reconnolssance surveys much more general in character, made on scales of four to six Inches to the mile and covering large areas. At the close of the last fiscal year an area of ,T31,4S7,Filter Press, Used in Soil Investigations. 300 acres had been surveyed in detail and 322,7G0,9G0 acres on a reconnoissance basis. These surveys involve the Identification and classification of the many types of soils found in various parts of the country, a study of their agricultural value, and a determination of their relation to the various crops and systems of agriculture. Advancement of Agriculture. The results of the toil survey work form a basis for the logical advancement of agriculture through experimentation of scientific workers in all Its varied lines. The land classification work of the bureau is done in co-operation with the forest service and other departments of the government, and has foIts purpose the exclusion, from .the national reserves, of lands that are suited for agriculture. An interesting special investigation in connection with the potah supply has to do with the extraction of this salt from the giant kelp of the Pacific coast. A fully equipped factory has been operated at Sumincrland. California, for the last two years, and thousand of dollars worth of potash lias been sold to the fertilizer trade or direct to fanners. The plant will .V operate! during the coining fiscal y ar, a careful study being made of the practicability of recovering various by-products, so that the industry may be able to compete with Imported potash and the kelp beds may become a permanently valuable asset of the nation.

HOW s

HINTS FOR BUILDING ICE HOUSE FOR FARM

Erection of Structure Depends Much on Local Conditions. Size of Dullding and Difficulty of Ob. taining Ice Are Important Factors Other Details Must Be Considered. Construction of a farm Ice house depends to a prent extent upon local conditions, the size of the house, and the diiilculty of obtaining Ice. These factors help to determine the sum that may wisely be spent for such a building. Where Ice Is expensive or hard to obtain, a better constructed and Insulated aud therefore more expensive Ice house Is advisable. Where natural ice can be harvested and stored cheaply a cheap structure Is usually satisfactory and the loss from melting Ice is a small consideration. The cost of harvesting and storing, the interest on the money invested, and repairs and depreciation on the building are to be considered in rela- ' " ' v . vs. I II. .w At

It never pays to build permanently In other than a substantial manner, and careful thought should be given the matter before erecting a cheap makeshift that will not give adequate service. Various types of ice houses, how to build them, and other phases of the subject are discussed in Fanners' Bulletin 107S, "Harvesting and Storing Ice on the Farm," which can be obtained free of charge from the United States department of agriculture. OATS ARE ECONOMICAL CROP Not Generally as Profitable as Some Other Grains, but Needed In Good Rotation. It Is sound farm business to sell some crops for cash. Farm management surveys have shown that the safest and soundest practice is to have about one-fifth of the total receipts on the farm come from sale of crops. The other four-fifths will come from the sale of live stock or live stock products. ' The crop that can usually be sold for casb most economically Is oats. Oats are not generally as profitable a crop to grow as some others, but a good rotation needs this small grain In it. It makes a very satisfactory connecting link between the corn crop and the hay crop. Corn, If sold as ct cash crop, makes n larger return to the acre, but corn can usually be fed more profitably than It can be sold for cash. It Is ordinarily a cheaper feed than oats. Hence, if any crop is to be sold, it should be the oats. WEIGHTS PER BUSHEL A bushel is regarded as a definite weight rather than a cubic measure in the estimates of production and prices made by the bureau of crop estimates. Tbe weights which are regarded as a bushel for various products are as follows: Wheat. 00 lbs.; corn. 50 lbs. if shelled, 70 lbs if in ear; oats, 32 lbs.; barley, 48 lbs; rye, 50 lbs. ; buckwheat, 4S lbs. ; white (Irish) potatoes, GO lbs.; sweet potatoes. 55 lbs.; apples, 48 lbs.; pears, 4S lbs.; peaches, 48 lb?.; walnuts and hickory nuts, 50 lbs.; beans (dry), 00 lbs.; onions, 57 lbs.; turnips, 55 lbs.; clover seed.' CO lbs. ; alfalfa seed, GO lbs. ; timothy seed, 45 lbs. ; Kafir corn, 50 lbs. Estimates of yields and prices in tons are always on the basis of 2,000 pounds. O: :0 TESTING SOIL FOR ACIDITY Experiment. Station Will Tell How Much Limestone to Apply for Crop of Alfalfa. It is a waste of time and money to sow alfalfa on sour soil and if you are not sure whether your soil Is acid or not test it for acidity or send a sample to your experiment station 'and have it tested. The experiment station will not only tell you whether the seil is acid or not. but will also advise how much ground limestone to apply per acre in order to put It In good condition for alfalfa or other legumes. The lime may be applied next winter if time does not permit of applying It this fall.
