The Material Value of Beauty u It used often to bo remarked that "beauty Is a luxuiy." This splilt has made tho majority of American towns quite ugly. Meanwhile, as education advances and peoplo travel, thoy leain that good taste is not costly Also ugliness i often terribly expensive. The spring is the time uf much new construction. It Is the sohhou for cleaning up and beautifying towns. The time has gone by when tho com munity is a whole views with Indiffer ence the ehniuoler which now growth takis.

Tho fact that Nebraska can grow com and alfalfa at lets cost than al most any other state In the Union makes it posslblo for'Nebraska to take advantage of tho high price of meat Ten years of experimental work at the Nebraska E.perimeut Station has nroved that beef can bo nroduced at a lower cost ou some combination of the corn plant, and alfalfa than any other food combination nvailablo in the state. A large amount of data have, been obtained on the comparative value of cattle foods and may bo had upon application for bulletins Nos. UU and 13J of tho Bulletin department, Univeislty Farm, Lincoln. Water Lost In Three Ways Water In the soil may bo lost in three ways. By downward percolation, byovi'.porntloii at tho surface, and by uso of the plants. As there is scaicely ever enough water in many parts of Nebraska to allow percolation, it need not getioially concern thu fanner. Evupottilloti, however, is a thing that can bo partially controlled. Molstuto comes to the surface like oil lu a wick. If laud Is cultivated, thu evaporation is greatly loturiieu, for water moves slowly thru a loose soil. As rain is gcueially followed by a wind which luduces evaporation, it it well to cultl vate as soon after a rain as iioss It also assists lu destroying nu factor in the loss ofvvater, the weeds Cultivutioiillls weeds which use the moihturo that should be rcscived for the plants, A detailed discussion of "The Storage aud Use of Soil Moist uie" may be secured upon application for Bulletin No. 1 10 of the Bulletin de partment, Univeislty Farm, .Lincoln.

A few sheep on the avernuo Nebraska farm, if pi operly eared for, will give yood financial return!?. A fanner who is not familiar with sheep htisbandr.i should start with a small Hock and lis his number ki'ow.h his knowledge ol sheep management will increase. Tin profits derived from the sheep busi ness, the Nebraska College of Agricul ture tlnds, are largely determined by the shepherd's knowledge of the Indus try. Sheep aro sometimes called the plant scavengers of the farm. They will thrive on more kinds of weeds than will atiy other domestio animal. Sheep prove invaluable In clcaulug weedy pastures, fenco corners, and in removing brush. Sheep can always be rased to good ndvanlage in utilizing products which would otherwise go to waste, such as the scattered heads and volunteer growth in tho stubble field, orab riiisb, and the lower leaves in tho cornfield.
