I’RODITK MONK MEAT
Uncle Sam says: Tin Nation’s
in: it supply is short. Chickens are
the quickest meat crop that can be
produced and require no large out
lay. We need an increase of one
hundred million pounds of poultry
this year.
in order to supply the above needs
of cur nation it will be necessary
to do some fall hatching. Not only
will it give us mere meat but it will
increase our egg production neat sum
mer when the eld hens are idle.
Fall hatching will enable the poul
try raisers to do their bit in the pro
duction of more meat. Small broil
ers can be produced in six weeks,
large broilers in twelve weeks. As
usual thing it is true that the mar
ket is not goood in winter for broil
e:s -is it is in the summer on account
of the cold storage holdings, but this
year there should be a demand for
more of this meat.
The Southern states are well ad
.nn. 1 f< cirninuti’ l }••!! h’i rh
ing. In most localities of this State
tin weather conditions are such that
the chicks keep in a healthy com! -
li i and develop rapidly. Fall hatch
ed chicks are even more easily raised
chan spring chicks.

Clover aTTti Alfalfa Should Be Raissd
For Stock—Grain Is Needed
For Human Food.
—
By D. F. Mungf rford, A.-.-i.-taat Agron
omist University of Arkansas.
Live stock growers in Arkansas are
becoming more int- n . t d in the clo
vers arid alfalfa because the demand
for grain as hum: s f -,>rl ha so in
creased tin price tha* live -lock men
must rely upon legume hay largely to
take the plat of grain In feeding
their animals.
Those who attempt to raise these
legumes should remember that al
falfa and most of the common clov
ers require a soil that is well sup
plied with lime to insure their best
development. Soil acidify, which
means the absence of lime from a ,
soil, is especially injurious to alfalfa
and sweet clover. Neither of these
crops appear to be able to resist, per
manently, even a slight degree of
acidity. Red clover is nearly as sen
sitive to an arid condition as alfalfa.
White, also crims-m md burr clove
are slightly more resistant, but will
not do well on soils that hav even
a medium acidity. Japan clover or
lespedeza appears to be the most re
sistant of all the clovers to acid con
dition; but even though it will grow
to a limited extent on very oid nils.
It does much better on soils contain
ing lime.
How Tc Determine If Your Soil
Needs Lime.
Thn simplest method of fit- lermin
ing if a soil needs liim- is to u•-i it
with litmus paper. Listons paper
can be secured at me * -'nr
It comes in two colors—red and blue.
The blue is used for tIn t< s' Mu

To make the test in the field t time
is selected after a rain when the sot!
is moist. A ball of moist M! Is
broken apart, a strip of ts bin

pressed together again. Af.

jurod and much humus dc -troyed in
the soil. However, if th burned
slacked lime is used in moderate"
Quantities (not to cxc. « d 1 500 p mud

most cases it will be found more a -
bfnetory to use the ground limestone,
