Deep Fall Plowing.
The importance of deep fal
plowing can hardly be estimated
The land is improved and protect
ed. insects are destroyed, the
texture of the land is improved anc
moisture is conserved, all of whief
are so necessary to good crops
But the land must not be broker
more than say, about tv/o inche;
deeper than it was at any previous
time. For this reason, there be ar
injury due to the excessive amoum
of subsoil that has never before
been exposed to the sunlight anc
air. One season, however, wil
make fertile soil of this clay with
p oper care.
Sunlight and air are the agencies
which make available the elements
of plant food that would possiblj
stay locked up in the soil were il
not for deep fall plowing. The
water is allowed to sink into the
ground and is a kind of a reservoii
for future use. At the same time
it exposes to the sunlight and aii
the portion of the land that has
not or will not otherwise render
the plant food available to the
crops next year. Do not disc 01
harrow the land unless you wish tc
plant some winter crop, such as:
rye. oats, vetch, clover, etc.
Deep fall plowing enables one tc
use all the humus forming vege
table material that was left upor
the ground from the previous crops
Stalks weeds and grass shoulc
never be burned, but turned under
They will not only enrich the soil
but will improvd the texture anc
allow the air to circulate more
freely. Since soil is the decom
posed surface of the earth, the
deeper this composition the deepei
the soil and the b .tter for the plani
to be grown. Soil may contaii
plant foods that are locked up sc
that the plants can not use them
The exposure makes more fooc
available by virture of the water
air, and sunshine, and the plant
can assimilate its food from the
soil solution just as the tissues ol
the body assimilate food from the
blood.
The conservation of moisture
for the long growing season is
another great reason for deep fai
plowing. The ground will get the
benefit of the winter rains anc
store up moisture that otherwise
would have run off or evaporated
With a porous soil, each square
foot of soil will hold the amount ol
rain that falls on that space. This
is of very much importance wher
one considers that the water nec
essary to make an average cro;
would cover the earth th rteer
inches if it were all on at one time
Water is 75 per cent of the vege
table kingdom. We must ther
manage our lands so that they wil
retain the greatest amount ol
moisture for use when the rainfal
is insufficient.
This can be done by deep fal
plowing and subsoiling, which in
creases the storage capacity, so tc
speak. Many of our farmers
thoroughly broke their land Iasi
fall two or three inches deepei
than they had ever broken it before
then diaced it in the spring bQfoi
planting and with proper cultiva
tion have mad° wonderful c o.
despite the diy sped. Deep .a,
plowing pays.

Construction of a Road Drag.
The ordinary road drag is a con
trivance so easily made and sc
simple of construction, that there
is no excuse for each road not hav
ing a goodly number of them. The
first drags were made by splitting a
good size log into two equal parts, j
surfacing the front side and cutting !
edge, with sharpe ax or adze.
These two pieces of logs were tied
together rigidly by means of rods i
and timbers, keeping the two flat ]
surfaces towards the front. This
is how the name''Sp!it Log Drag" i
■ came to le applied to the road
drag. Tl is "Split Log Drag", if
, well made, will last a long time anu
give just as good service as doesj
the steel drag or any other form of
drag.*
It has been found more conven
ient in a great many instances to
use heavy timbers instead of logs
and the High way Department has
made a plan, calling for two blades
of the drag to be made of 4x10
j inch timbers 8 feet long, tied to
gether with two or three pieces or
2x8 timber, and bolted with <T-8
i inch bolts. These should be spaced
about 2 !2 feet apart, and can be
drawn with double-tree at'ached
to the drag by means of ordinary
chain.
The front of the bottom should
be protected by a sheet metal strip
of some kind, to prevent the rapid
wearing away of the lower edge of
the drag. Any carpenter can, in a
few hours of time, construct as
servicable a drag as may be
secured. Reubin G. Dye.

Arrested.
Further arrests are being made
daily not of persons, but of pain.
Its Hunt's Lightning Oil that so
many people are talking aboui be
i cause it arrests and stops pain, and
affords almost instant relief in 1
cases of Neuralgia Rheumatism I
Headache, Burns, etc. Just try it
if you want pain to quit quick.

Every mother thinks her son is a
shining light.
Your wife gets just as abr ut tired
of having you around ail the time
as of not having you around any of
the time.
If unfulfilled promises wore
grounds for impeachment, a lot of
other aspirants would have oppor
tunities to make promises they
cou’dn't keep.
Women's c'othing has been a
puzzle, but it is getting so it is not
so hard to see through.
Most favors come from those
who are nof likely to even ask one
of you.
A human crank seldom starts
anything.
The woman who would be in the
whirl always thinks it is her turn.
Women are making a mistake in
the new fangled kinds of clothes
they wear. They leave little to
arouse man's curiosity.
A love affair does not develop
that pecul.ar, delicious tang unless
a few obstacles are put in its wav
to be overcome.
The way to get the male popu
lation to church is to advertise a
sermon for men only with admit
tance at the side door.
it ta«es a motion picture macnine
to keep an anywise accurate record
of the price of eggs.
Women are said to live longer
than men. But they never reach
the same age.
It seems like some women move
their furniture around simply for
the pleasure of hearing hubby's
shins come in contact therewith
when moving around in the dark.
Some men never know they had
a chance to get married until some
woman starts a breach of promise
suit.
Missiondr> Union Met.
The Missionary Union mot at
the church Tuesday afernoon with
17 members present. Devotional
exercises led by Mrs.' Greer a'ter
which we taken up our bible study, j
Mrs. King then made us a very in
teresting talk on the association
which was enjoyed by all and we
are glad to know we will have the
Association at Huttig next year.
We then discussed our bazaar and
each lady made known what they
intended to do. Meeting closed
with a chain prayer.
Causes further Talk.
Because so many people are
telling their experience with Hunt's
Lightning Oil for Headaches, Rheu
matism. Neuralgia, etc., others are
lead to give it a trial, and are con
vinced immedi itly of its merits cts
a pain killer. Are you yet to be
convinced? Ask the Druggist.
