II ? 1 J vjo SPEGIALLY WRITTEN L INFORMATION ABOUT AGRICUL TURAL SUBJECTS FKOM RELIABLE SOUBCES In Thayer County, Nebr., tho county agent wished to show to as many farmers as possible a system of crop rotation adapted to their needs. Ho solected tho county fair as an oppor tunity of meeting perhaps tho largest number of farmers at any ono time. Securing from the fair iboard a 7-foot squaro spaqo in a prominent part of the fair grounds, ho laid off on" it a rnmaturo farm, with Holds in pro portion to tho 7-foot space. Corn, oats and wheat wero sown In tho fields in time to be growing nlcoly when tho fair opened; imitation trees wero placed to show the location of tho orchard and small modola of farm buildings added. Over 15,000 persons (visited tho tiny farm during tho fair, studying tho plan, and asking ques tions about tho rotation system. COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS A largo per cent of tho binder troubles come from depreciation of tho machlno while It Is standing in tho field. Tho knotter mechanism of tho binder is a complicated and deli cate pieco of machinery and should not bo exposed to tho weather. A heavy coating of rust on these parts causes most of tho knotter trouble of tho following years. If tho machlno must bo left In tho field for a time it is a good policy to cover Uio knotter part with a heavy coating of axle grease and tie an old piece of canvas ovor tho binder head. Binder can vases will not stand any partlculai amount of exposure and should bo re moved as soon as tho machlno Is stopped. Crickets and mlco quickly destroy tho canvas and In some cases even ont (lie jjlais Ono will b. rop'.M for his time i all the camases on tho binder are well wrapped In heavy bulldin paper and suspended on wires from the rafters In tho granary or hay loft where they cannot bo molest ed by Insects or mice.

The courthouse lawn in Elbert County, Colo., like many other lawns, was badly infested with dandelions. Tho county agent suggested killing them by pasturing, rather than plow ing under tho sod. According to re ports received by the United States Department of Agriculture, the test was approved by tho commissioners. Sufficient hog wlro to fence tho lawn was purchased and two pastures 100 (cot long and 80 feet wide were made. A fanner near town furnished six old owes, which wero placed in one pasture May 14, when the dandolions were at their best. A week later four . more wore added to tho flock. The owes wero changed from ono pasturo to tho other at one-week In tervals. They soon had tho dandelions and grass eaten down and kept It down. Thoy ato blossoms and buds readily, and the hearts out of tho dandelion plants closo to tho ground. Bettcjrv results would have been ob tained had tho sheep been put In earlier, but tho experiment proved qulto effective In ridding tho lawn of dandelions. :o: LOCAL AND FERSONAL Miss Edna Jensen loft Thursday for hor homo in Council Bluffs.
