Senator George W. Norrls, and Con
gressman M. 0. McLaughlin and A
W. Jcfferys at the request of tho Ne
braska Farm Bureau fedoration havo
taken up with tho first assistant post
master general at Washington tho
proposition of delivering mall at third
and fourth class postofflces on Sun
day to rural patrons. They find that
this sorvlco was discontinued In order
to give the rural carriers an entlro
day off on Sunday, and as thoy do not
go to tho post offlco on Sunday thoro
Is at prosont no one to distribute mail
so that It can bo hnndod to tho var

sured, howovor, by tho post offlco de
partment, that whllo It Is not likoly
that rural carriers will bo compelled
I to do this work on Sunday that an
attempt will bo made to havo tho dis
tribution made in some other way.

resented tho stato -organization at tho

Atlanta, Ga., last week. Mr. Luto ic
keeping with tho proceduro of tho
I convention submitted n dotallcd re-
port of Nebraska Farm Bureau ac

, Lute added a word plcturo of tho Ne
braska farmer at tho present time bp
follows: "Tho Nebraska f)irmor Is
down but not out; ho ,1s slightly dis
figured but still In tho ring; is, hard
hit but not Hckotl for he knows that
basis Industry Is fundamentally sound
and hope springs eternal In his heart.

bo ordered. The railroads countered
with the proposition that all rates be
reduced throughout tho country 10
per cent Instead of making tho greater
reduction In tho grain growing states
only. This declaration on the part of
tho railroads has been followed by an
ordor of tho commission making the
reduction apply to farm products in
keeping with tho Washington hearing
to be effective December 27.

freoly. This habit Is sometimes taken
up by most of tho birds and tho flock
Is ruined by cnnnabalism. It Is much
cheaper to soil tho small pullets now
than to feed then all winter and per
haps get many weak chicks hatched
from their eggs next spring when tho
hatching eggs aro collected without
considering their origin.
There are three fundamental prin
cipals underlying dairying breeding
feeding and selection. The most Im
portant of thoso Is breeding. By prop
er feeding methods production can
bo raised. By selection of tho better
animals In a herd the average produc
tion may bo Increased. The greatest
improvement can bo made by breed
ing tn n Well nlonn nurnhrort hull, fol
lowed by proper feeding methods audi
culling out tho lnforlor animals sayd
tho Nebraska College of Agriculture.
To Improve a dairy breed tho co
ordinated efforts of many foreslghted
broedcrs aro necessary. It Is not suf
ficient that only one or two combine
tholr of forts. Tho greatest results
may bo obtained by tho combined ef
forts of a large number of breeders
and communities with tho same goal
In view. Tho "scrub" slrfc Is tho
greatest handicap in herd Improve
ment. In a community where each
farmer has only a few cows, thoy are
usually bred to the nearest avallablo
bull, often without regard to breed,
brooding, or look3. The result Is a
promiscuous mixture of breeds In
other words, "scrubs." Tho first stop j
In Improving a herd Is to dispose of!
tho "scrub" sire and get a high class
purebred bull. Let's combine our ef
forts and do away with tho "scrub"
side.

What will happon to naturally rich
rolling land during twcnty-nlno years
of farming to grain crops was recent
ly soen In a visit which agronomy
specialists of tho Collego ot Agricul
ture made to a Cass county, Nebraska
farnu This farm had been In corn,
wheat and oats for twenty-nine years,
largoly undor a one year lease ac
cording to nolghbors. With the ex
ception of a small wet draw no part
of tho farm had ever been seeded
down. Tho present owner, who bought
the farm three years ago, paid, half
what surrounding farms woro worth.
Ho described tho farm as being cut up
with ditches and gullies, with tho good
soil washed off tho hill sides and
weeds' making tho chief crop. If a
man Is run down with ovorwork, his
doctor docs not advies him to tako
Poruna, Swamp-root, Tanalac or somo
othor mnglc euro but to change his
conditions or do but llttlo work. Tho
same advice holds true of rundown
soil; red clover, alfalfa, sweet clover,
and manuro aro tho changes needed
nnd will build tho organic matter
and nltrogon of tho soli, making it
moro productlvo nnd easier to work
with, less washing nnd gullying. i
These' methods havo now been
used on this farm for threo years with
suprlslng rosults. With present prlcos
for corn nnd oats, tho College of Agri
culture bollovos that land owners who
aro not pressed for cash crops can
woll afford to seed down tholr land
to build up fertility to take out as
Increased yields In following years.
Too much of our land has boon wrong
Bldo up too long. Turn tho sod back
