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.

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.

Ford officials stato that every at

Tho demand for Ford enclosed cars
has boon espocdaly hard to meet, due
to tho ovor Increasing popularity
of tho Coupo and Sedan for all year

A reflection of general business con
