Notice
There arc many reliable farm pa
pers issued nowadays that supply
the farmers and stockmen with cash
able nnd workable ideas, but the best
suited, to the farmers of this section
is Farmer and Breeder. It is issued
semi-monthly at Sioux City, Jn., and
is intensely interesting and practical.
It regularly carries veterinary, dai
ry, poultry, horticulture, home and
fashion departments in addition to
market and live stock news. The
Hpecinl feature stories about success
ful farmers and breeders give many
valuable hints, suggestions, nnd les
Bons that any intelligent farmer can
apply with profit.
MONKY-SAVING OVVVAl
The Herald has made special ar
rangements with Farmer and Breed
er which enables us to olfor you The
PROFITS DKSIiTK ADVEKSi:
CONDITIONS
That fair profits can be secured
in spite of unfavorable, conditions,
if the farm is managed efficiently, is
shown by a farm management sut
vey made by the College of Agri
culture in Kilmorc county fr the
crop year 1913. During that ear,
the average fanner lacked $1W) of
making f per cent on his invest
ment, nnd secured for his labor only
what the farm furnished towards
his living. However, the 10 best
farmers not only made interest, but
averaged $775 additional, on farms
averaging 192 acres each. Each
farm had three main sources of in
come: Wheat, hogs, and cattle;
and nearly all sold oats, horses, and
poultry. All rough feed was con
sumed on the farm, the stock show
ing a nice profit. The farmer pros
pered thocorn failed, because labor
and feed were used efliciently.
"FAMILY SIZE" FARMS PAY I1KST
The "family size" farm, the farm
which furnishes work for the young
er members of the family, is the
best paying farm, according to a
farm management survey conducted
in eastern Nebraska by the College
of Agriculture. There the "family
size" varies from 200 to 250 acres.
The greatest profit was found on
farms employing two men through
out the year. This does not imply
that each farm kept a hired man.
but that part of the work was done
by boys. After all expenses, includ
ing inuor periormeu y ouier mem
bers of the family and fi per cent on
the investment, the average operat
or received about- $800 a year in
cluding the value of products fur
nished by the larm.
ALFALFA AND SORGHUM SILAUK
Indications are that excellent'
silage can be made withmixtuios of
alfalfa and sweet sorghum, accord
ing to silage investigations in pro
gross at the Agriucltural Experi
ment Station of Nebraska. Such
mixtures containing one-half alfalfa
and one-half sorghum cane, put up
on a small scale, give perfect silage
three months after siloing. The
acidity is somewhat lower than nor
mal silage but does not impair the
keeping qualities. Further investi
gations of this subject are in pro
gress, but the present results would
indicate that a farmer might safely
put equal parts of alfalfa and well
matured sorghum cane in his silo
with expectation of securing a good
quality of silage.
CLEAN FUSIHLH SArRTY PI.I'i;
Replacing burned-out safety plugs
with bolts instead ol with new lus
ible plugs is one of the common
causes of explosion of tractor boil
ers, according to the College of Ag
riculture, Lincoln. A careful exam
ination and clean-up of the plug is
recomended at least once during the
threshing season. To make the
clean-up thorough, remove the plug
and scrape oil' the scale-like deposit
on the top of the plug. This done,
low water in the boiler will not re
sult in an explosion, but will merely
mean melting the plug to allow the
steam to escape into the lire box.
MINERAL MIXTURES
A shallow trough containing a
mixture of charcoal, sulpher, air
slacked lime and common salt assists
in keeping sows in good condition.
This mixture can be made by mixing
one bushel of charcoal with two
pounds of powdered sulpher, five
pounds air-slacked lime and five
pounds of salt. Wood and coal ash
es dumped into the hog yard are
beneficial ana will help to serve the
same purpose as the mineral mix
ture above.
WHITE KHERSON OATS YIELD WELL
A new strain of Kherson oats,
white in color, recently developed
by the Nebraska State Experiment
Station at Lincoln, has been found
to give greater yields than the or
dinary yellow Kherson oat. Ten
acres of the new strain yielded 85
bushels to the acre this year. Win
ter wheat just threshed on the state
farm averaged 45 bushels to the
acre, some of the selected strains
reaching the 55 mark.

The Alley Joint in Kansas
Warden J. K. Codding of the Kansas penitentiary says that the
"LITTLE ALLEY JOINT" in the cities of Kansas makes criminals.
"Aiter being in the penitentiary for three years and nine months (the
average sentence served) the KANSAS BOY who has gone wrong walks
out of the institution under parole Cleaned, disciplined, re
formed, he leaves the penitentiary walls behind him to return to his
native city the city that permitted him to become schooled in crime
He finds that ' his native city, the city that spoiled
him, hasn't reformed any. IT HAS THE SAME LITTLE ALLEY
JOINT, the same rendezy.fus where some of the men and boys slip down
after night to play poker and shoot craps He resists it for a
while, but the pull of the destructive fi$ht of his native city is too much
for him. He slips a little mid keeps slipping, and some morning he wakes
up after a debauch to find he has broken his parole "

These are the conditions Surrounding the men and boys of Kan

We surely appreciate tlio refresh
inn showers after the prolonged hot
dry spell, we appreciate the cool
days. The rain puts back tlio time
of threshing, but we know that it is
good for the corn, and so we rejoice.
Tlio heat and drought of summer
may bo sweltering, but what is more
depressing to the whole man than a
heart without an outlook and with
out a spirit at rest. Dissatisfied,
heavy, distrustful! of the future,
forboding, tossed I" and fro bv the
disquieting influences we meet at so
many times of life. In the midst of
it all, how refreshing to the heart is
the word of dou, which searches out
the depths of tlio soul and at once
calls the child of God to repentance
and applies the healing balm of his
promises and the positive conscious
ness of his grace. How restful it is
to know peace with God, the heart
leans at the consciousness of being
right in the eyes of God. What the
world may think will mnke no differ
ence. The Book tells us it regards
tlio ways of Christ and his children
as foolishness in their eyes, and it
1 also tells us that God will confound

press the heart of a man, and how
refreshing at such a time is the out
pouring of God's grace and assur
ance. And unlike the showers from
the clouds, we do not have to wait
for the natural conditions to bring
them. Would you like to make it
rain just when you wanted it? You
can do greater things than that for
Christ's refreshing for the thirstv
soul is always at hand. And as the
lite is greater than the corn so the
blessing of God on the life is great
er than that on the field.
These blessed showers are ob
tained by waiting on God, by ap
proaching him in desire and expect
ation, by calling upon him. It is
God's great pleasure to comfort and
anu mess nis ciuiurcn. lour pure
love goes out to your child, you like
to please them, and the happiness of
paternal affection is deep; how much
is it truo with the bather of us all
He has sent his Spirit into the world
for this purpose. These showers of
spiritual refreshment are drawn
from God's word, and from worship
in his house and with the saints. If
men knew the value of worship to
their own lives, and the blessedness
of worshiping with tlio saints, they
would not be so careless. It would
interfere with their worldy pleasure
seeking, but their soul would grow,
whereas they are dying.
Happy is he who is filled with the
fullness of God. The pastor was
much gratified at the number in at
tendance unon divine worshin Inst
Sunday, and nlso at the spirit the
worshipers manifested. It is an
easy thing to see whether the mess
age of the hour is being received by
the congregation, and there is noth
ing else that is more notent to call
forth the very best in a pastor than
just such a heating.
Kinmanuel's ladies aid will meet
