It seems that there can be no doubt
that the cliff dwellers were extermi

and the women being adopted Into the

cases migrations may have become
necessary ns a result of drought or

IMPROVED TOOLS
SAVE MUCH TIME
Modern Methods and Implements
Mean More Work Accom
plished at Less Cost.
LABOR SAVED IN HAYMAKING
Scarcity of Man Power Necessitates
General Uso of Certain Types of
Labor-Saving Machinery
Horse Solves Problem.
(Prepared by tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Thousands of young men have been
called to the colors, and on many farms
this results In n scarcity of labor. The
problem of the hay grower is how to
handle his crop with a smaller crew
thun hitherto, and ono often mostly
of middle-ngcd men and boys. With
methods used heretofore this typo of
labor certainly cannot harvest the hay
in tho usual time, at least on many
farms in the East and South, where It
has been the custom to use n compara
tively large amount of hand labor In
making hay.
Solution of Problem.
Although there Is a scarcity of roan
labor, thero are still plenty of horses
on most farms, and herein lies the so-
.This Method Saves Much Hard Work
In Hay Making.
Aitlon of the problem. On farms where
ponsldernblo hay Is grown methods
must lu adopted by which tho greater
pnrt of the heavy labor is done by
horses. This will necessitate the gen
eral uso of certain types of lnbor-snv-Ing
machinery, some of them not so
tommon In the East, which have been
thoroughly tested and proved satisfac
tory in tho" western pnrt of the United
States. Tho small hny grower, how
ever, need not make a very heavy in
vestment in new haying apparatus, for
by re-arranging the work of his crow
and using a little more horse labor for
tho hard work, he can add consider
ably to tho efficiency of his crew.
The time of day when the mower is
started lias a direct benring on the
nmount of hny made per day and the
number of men required. This is es
pecially true on farms where It Is the
custom, to haul or stack hay in the' af
ternoon only. lmowlng is done in
the morning and raking in the nfter
noon, more men and horses than usual
will be required, and if mowing nnd
raking are both done in the afternoon,
still more men and horses will be
needed.
Use Larger Mowers.
The 5-foot cut Is the most common
3ize used in the East. With the pres
ent scnrclty of labor, It will be econ
omy to use larger mowers; 0, 7, nnd
even 8-foot sizes can be used on n
great many farms. Some Idea of the
time saved by using these larger sizes
may be had when the difference In tho
nmount of work done by each is known.
Under average conditions, a fi-foot
mower will cut ten acres in ten hours,
n C-foot mower will cut 12 ncres, n 7-
foot 14 acres, and nn 8-foot about 10
ncres in ten hours. It should be borno
In mind that more power Is required
for the wider cuts. Many nlfalfn grow
ers are using tho 8-foot cut with good
success, nnd make n practice of mow
ing early In the morning beforo tho
dew Is off, or even during a light rain.
It" does not pay to wait until the dew
Is off, before starting the mower, if
the tedder Is used to "kick" tlto wnter
out of the hay. The size of mower
used nnd the time of day it is started
aro tho most Important fnctors In crew
arrangement. The use of tho tedder
nnd rake are next in Importance, and
these three Implements should be kept
clearly In mind when attempting to
solve the problem of how to muko a
small crew efficient.
Good Feed for Chicks.
A Johnnycuke makes good feed for
chicks when crumbled up fine. After
the first week you can begin feeding
small grains such as millet, plnhead
oatmeal, rolled oats, cracked wheat and
cracked corn.
Thin Cream With Water.
If tho cream is too thick it should
be thinned out beforo the churn stnrts,
but in nil cases tho thinning should bo
done with water.

INOCULATION PLANS
FOR SOY BEAN 'CROP
Why It Is Sometimes Advisable
and How It Increases Yield.
One Way Is to Transfer Soil to New
. Field From Field Where Beans Havo
Been Successfully Grown
Other Methods.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
mcnt of Agriculture.)
In most of the cotton belt nodule-"
forming bacteria for soy beans, which
make the free nitrogen of the nlr
available, are already in the soil, but
usually In limited quantities, and for
the sake of snfety Inoculation fre
quently is advisable. This Inoculn
tlon can be made in several ways.
Ono is by transferring soil to the now
field from n field where soy beans havo
been successfully grown nnd nodules
have formed on the roots of the plants.
Care should be taken to keep the In
oculating soil out of the sunlight from
the time it is taken out of the old
field until It is worked Into the uew.
A cloudy dny or a time early in tho
morning or Inte in the evening should
he chosen for making the transfer.
Two hundred pounds or more of soil
should be used per acre nnd should bo
hnrrowed into the soil Immediately
after scattering. Another method Is
to inoculate the seed with artificial
cultures. In some states these cul
tures can be obtained from state agen
cies at a nominal cost. Directions
for using tho cultures accompany ench
package. Still another way is to moist
en the seed with n thin solution of
mQrnsses nnd water nnd then thor
oughly mix fine dry dirt from nn old
soy bean, field with the seed. After
the seed is dry it can bo planted In
the usual way.
Nitrogen-benrlng fertilizers hnvetho

bean ns do tho nodule-forming bac
teria, and often when plnntlng them

with 200 pounds of cottonseed menl
per acre to insure n crop while tho
nodule-forming bacteria are develop
lng in the soil.
Rome nodule-forming hncterla aro
usually carried with seed that Is not
nrtlficlnlly Inoculated, owing to the
fact that in the process of harvesting
and thrashing the seed becomes more
or less coated with soil dust, nnd farm
ers suy that where soy beans are
planted without either Inoculutlng or
fertilizing with cottonseed menl tho
yields Increaso from year to year, un
til three crops of beans have hern
grown on the land. This Is evidently
duo both to the improvement in tho
inoculntlon and to the incrense In fer
tility of the soil, but largely to tho In
nciilatlpn. The bacteria carried with
the seed or the limited number already
in the soli multiply from year to year
until the supply is sufficient.
MAKE MISTAKES IN POULTRY
Also Many Difficult Problems Will Be
Presented to Beginner Before
Success Is Attained.

mcnt of Agriculture.)

BUTTER PRODUCED ON FARMS
First Thing Necessary Is to Begin
With Good, Clean-Flavored Milk
How to Separate.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Although creamery butter has al
most entirely dlsplnced farm-made
butter In the markets of the United
States, more than half tho butter pro
duced Is still made on farms. Tho
fact that this butter cannot compete
successfully with the creamery prod
uct Is that most of It brings n poor
price and is consumed in villages or
small towns, or Is shipped to renovat
ing factories for treatment nnd sells
as a relatively low-grade product. It
is possible, however, greatly to im
prove the quullty of farm butter by
employing in its production standard
practices nnd greater cure than Is or
dlnnrlly expended.
To produce good butter It Is neces
sary to begin with n good, clenn-flav-orcd
milk. In some sections of tho
country t is customnry to ripen nnd
churn the whole milk lnstcnd of the
cream. That practice, however, is in-

advisable, because It requires a high
churning temperature, which injures
the qunlity of the butter and causes n
considerable loss of butterfat in the
buttermilk. It is also liable to result
in too much water in the butter. For
those reasons only the churning oi
cream will be considered. It is Just
ns essential to obtain cream undei
such conditions that It will bo ol
equnlly good quality as the milk.
Cream may be separated from the,
milk by gravity or by a centrifugal
separator. Oravlty separation may be
accomplished by tho shallow-pan, the
deep-setting, or tho vwnter-dIlutlon
method. Tho first two hnve been ex
tenslvely used and aro still in uso
where very few cows nre milked. In
the first method tho milk is placed In
shallow pans and set In a cool placd
for about .10 hours, usually In u cellar
or a spring house, and sometimes In
cold wnter, to permit the cream ta
rise. During that time Xho surfnee, ns
u rule, Is exposed to tho nlr and fre
quently the cream absorbs or develops
objectionable flavors. Tho skim milk
resulting from tho removal of the
cream by this method usually contains
0.5 to 1.5 per cent of butterfat; that
is, one-eighth to one-third of. all the
butterfat In the whole milk. It Is fre
quently sour nlso; Its value for cnil
feeding Is Injured, and Its use In the
household limited.
By the deep-setting method the mllh
vs soon us drawn from tho cow Is
plnced In a "shotgun" can, which is
placed In cold wnter, preferably ice
water, for 12 hours. Because of tha
quick cooling to a low temperature
the cream rises more quickly nnd com
plctely than in tho shnllow-pan meth
od nnd is skimmed before its fresh
sweet flavor has been lost. The re
sulting skim milk may contain as low
ns 0.2 per cent of butterfat, though
often nenrer 0.5 per cent, nnd is sweet.
If the milk is not plnced In ice wntei
Immediately after It Iiiih been drawn
tho loss of butterfat is still greater,
The dilution of milk with water hal
been used to some extent, In the be
lief that It aids crenmlng, but Investl
gntions have shown that tho loss ol
butterfat Is ns great as, or greatei
than. In tho shnllow-pan method
There In the further objection that o
watery flavor Ip Imparted to the
cream, and the usefulness of the sktit
milk Is limited, mixtures of wnter and
skim milk being undesirable either fni
household uso or for calf feeding
A centrifugal sepurator gives by fai
the best results, because the sepaiw
tlon is accomplished in a few minutes
while tho milk is still warm. Tht
skm milk usually contnlns only n
traco of butterfat nnd is available foi
use at once, while perfectly fresh. Bo
entice of tho ability of tho mechanlpa
separator to skim clean, It is u profit
nblo Investment unless the qunntltj
of milk is very small.
A cream sepurator should be run ac
cording to the directions furnished by
the manufacturer. Bearings and gear
tags should be kept clean.
