The Worth of the Voice.
Kawwonderful is the human voice !
It is indeed the organ of the soul !
The intellect < af man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye , and the heart of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only ; as
God revealed himself to the prophet of
old in the still , small voice , and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul of man is audible , not visible. A
sound alone betrays the flowing of the
eternal fountain , invisible to man.

WANTED TO SLEEP
Curious That a Tired Preacher Should
!
Have Such Desire.
J
A , minister speaks of the curious ef j
fect of Grape-Nuts food on him and
how it has relieved him.
"You will doubtless understand how
the suffering from indigestion with
which I used to be troubled made my
work an almost unendurable burden ;
and why it was that after my Sabbath
duties had been performed , sleep was
a stranger to my pillow till nearly
daylight.
"I had to be very careful as to what
I ate , and even with all my care I ex
perienced poignant physical distress
after meals , and my food never satis
fied me.
"Since I began the use of Grape-
Nuts the benefits I have derived from
it are very definite , I no longer suffer
from indigestion , and I began to im
prove from the time Grape-Nuts ap
peared on our table.
"I find that by eating a dish of this
food after my Sabbath work is done ,
( and I always do so now ) my nerves
are quieted and rest and refreshing
sleep are ensured me.
"I feel that I could not possibly do
without Grape-Nuts food , now that I
know its value. It is invariably on our
table we feel that we need it to make
the meal complete and our children
will eat Grape-Nuts when they cannot
be persuaded to touch anything else. "

HAMUS ON DRY FARM
Native of Syria , and Delights in
Hot , Dry Weather.
It Is Not Affected by Hot Winds , as
Corn and Other Grains , and Ma
tures in Six to Eight Weeks
From 'Planting.
In the summer of 1900 I filed on a
claim on which I am living today , and
since then I have been studying the
climate and the soil of this country ,
writes E. Rizk of Stanley county ,
South Dakota , in the Orange Judd
Farmer. The more I studied the bet
ter I felt , because it put me in mind
of the place where I was born and
raised , on the farm of Jim Janeen Ei-
Bakka , about 35 miles from Damascus ,
Syria. In that section many good
crops are raised without a drop of
summer rain. So not long after set
tling here I sent to the old country
and got about three pounds of hamus.
This is a pea that we always depend
ed upon for summer crops , and a table
vegetable.
By the way , I must tell what ha
mus is like , and for what and how
it is used. This plant is a member of
the pea family and used practically
the same way for cooking , and it may
also be roasted and salted or sugared
as peanuts. In addition it is fine
feed for horses and hogs , and , in fact ,
for all kinds of live stock. Last spring
about planting time I snowed the
pea to my neighbor and gave him a
small package of the seed and asked
him to try it on his place. The bal
ance of the seed I planted myself.
The first lot I seeded May 17 , 1910.
I planted two rows on a well-worked
seed bed , placing the seed 18 inches
apart in row with the same distance
between. The other portion of the
seed I planted on new breaking ; how
ever , this was also well prepared. This
seed was planted the first week of
June. Both seedings came up about
the same time , as it was cold the lat
ter part of May , and the seed did not
germinate until the weather became
warm. After spring really opened it
did not take long for the plants to
come up , probably from five to eight
days.
After hamus was planted we had no
rain worth mentioning ; in fact , we
had only a light shower about June
BO , which was not even enough to set
tle the dust , and that was the first and
last I received after planting the crop
until after harvest. The plants did
splendidly and grew as fast as Russian -
sian thistles. The stalks grow much
like the thistle , about 12 to 15 inches
high and about the same in diameter.
It blossoms and produces pods which
contain one of the peas , ordinarily
only one. The seeds are a trifle larg
er than the common garden pea , and
have a cream-colored hull.
It seems strange that natural salt
accumulates on the plant while green ,
and yet it Is a fact , and when this is
washed out by rain it delays growth.
The drier the season and the hoter
the weather the better the pjant
seems to thrive. It is not affected by
hot winds , as corn and other grains ,
and matures from six to eight weeks
from planting , depending largely upon
the season. I harvested mine wliile
green last Summer for table use on
July 5. On August 7 we had a good
rain here , and after that the plants
came up and made more growth the
same as before , but produced little
seed.
Regarding the yield per acre of this
crop , I might add that I found from
50 to 160 pods on a plant , and every
pod contained one and sometimes two
seeds. In my estimation hamus will
yield as much as 40 bushels per acre.
My neighbor whom I supplied a
small quantity of seed was well
pleased , and he intends to grow about
40 acres this season. Many other
farmers here after seeing the plant
determined to give It a trial , and I
secured seed for them. In all I have
made three importations , and shall
grow about 290 acres. I believe
that at least 200 to 500 acres will be
planted in our vicinity. Now as to
Che place that hamus will fill in this
country. I believe it will be a good
thing for the arid and semi-arid west
Dairying on High Priced Land.
Dairying is one of the most profit
able occupations on high priced land
for the reason that the land will im
prove in productiveness from year to
year and there is a uniform revenue
which will meet current expenses and
leave a surplus which is sure to come
if the business is conducted with or
dinary intelligence.
Watch for Lice.
When a spell of bad weather comes ,
look out for lice. They multiply fast
when hens and chicks have to be con
fined to their coops much of the time.
These pests will soon reduce the vital
ity of the liveliest chick ever hatched ,
so that it will be in good condition to
take gapes or some other ailment.
Small Horse Costs More.
Many farmers believe the upkeep of
a small horse doing the work of a
draft horse is less than that of the
heavier one. Experiments have shown
that a smaller horse will , in a year ,
consume as much feed as the heavier
one. At the same time the work will
tell more heavily upon him.
Time to Thin Peaches.
The best time to thin peaches is
just when the pit is hardening. In the
country between 35 and 40 degrees
latitude , this is done June 10 to 15.
Further south , of course , the work
should begin earlier.
PEST OF VOLUNTEER GRAIK
Evil May Be Greatly Minimized by
Using Rotation Given Herewith
Corn Is Best Crop.
The extent to which volunteer grain
grows in dry areas is perplexing to
the farmer who has in mind the rota
tion of crops upon his farm. In west
ern areas where winter wheat only is
grown the problem is easy. By the
system followed the farmer summer-
fallowed one year and the next year
grows wheat. While he is summer-
fallowing his land he has the chance
to destroy much grain that would oth
erwise give him trouble. But in many
areas even in the dry country , some
rotation is wanted. How , then , can
the farmer keep down the pest of vol
unteer grain that if present will de
stroy the purity of his grain and
cause it to mix , in some instances tea
a vexatious extent.
This evil will be greatly minimized
by the following rotation : Summer-
fallow one year , grain ; some cultivat
ed crop , grain. This rotation would
only call for the real summer-fallow
one year in four. Two years would be
devoted to cleaning the land , that is
the year that it was fallow and the
year that the cultivated crop was
grown. Thus there would be three
crops taken from the ground in four
years. By this system the land ought
to be kept free from volunteer grain
and also from weeds. The summer-
fallow should take away everything
that is offensive the year that it was
being done , and the cultivated crop
would do the same , while it was being
grown , that is to say , if the farmer
did his duty toward it.
The cultivated crop will include
corn , potatoes , beans and field roots
and possibly peas. Peas , however ,
may not pay for such cultivation. That
has yet to be proved. Of these crops
corn will be away beyond all compar
ison the most important , as it will be
grown over wide areas. It is the easi
est of these crops to grow and is also
the surest except in the case of pota
toes. It is also the most needed , as
its fodder is wanted on every farm
in the dry area.
If alfalfa can be introduced into the
rotation ! in a somewhat regular way
it ] will still further aid in safeguard
ing the cleaning of the land. If alfalfa
occupied the ground for a term of
years , say three or four , the volunteer
grain would perish. How long such
grain would live in the ground would
depend chiefly on the amount of mois
ture in the soil , but it is about certain
that ordinary grain would not retain
vitality longer in areas where the
moisture is enough to grow annual
crops of grain.
Some gain will probably result from
disking the ground right away after
harvest. Of course should the weath
er continue dry up to harvest but lit
tle of the grain would sprout. But
should any considerable , amount of
rain fall before growth would cease
much of the volunteer grain would
sprout and it would then be buried
with the plow.
EXCELLENT DRY FARM CROPS
Alfalfa and Other Deep Rooting Plants
Avail Themselves of Moisture
at Great Depths.
In a bulletin recently issued by the
experiment station of the Montana Ag
ricultural college on crops for dry
land farms , the following general ob
servations are given :
Success is more likely to follow the
careful selection of crops adapted to
dry land conditions than to promiscu
ous planting of seeds regardless of ca
pacity to withstand conditions im
posed. Among the qualities desirable
are hardiness and ability to survive
severe winter weather unprotected ,
drought resistance , structurally ca
pable of living in dry atmosphere with
out undue transpiration of water. The
cactus is an example of great drought
resistance. Plants with small leaf
surface are less likely to suffer in a
dry climate. Early maturity enables
the plant to mature its seed before the
pinch of drought overtakes it. Gen
erally , early maturing varieties are
best suited to a dry climate. Deep
rooting habits are more favorable than
a superficial root system. Alfalfa and
other deep rooting plants avail them
selves of moisture at great depths and
may even find perennial success in
subterranean water. Such plants are
least affected by .the drying out of the
surface soil. Plants that remain dor
mant during drought and do not die ,
but start into growth with new sup
plies of moisture , are of great advan *
tage.
DAIRY NOTES.
A good milk cow never becomes
rolling fat.
Salt regularly twice a week is bet
ter than once.
Cool the cream as soon as possible
after separating.
Prepared dips kill lice. A lousy
cow is a hard keeper.
The best thing for any dairying lo
cality is the organization of cow test
associations.
One of the best indications of a
good milk cow is the large and tortu
ous milk veins.
The animal that pays the best is
bound to be in evidence as dairymen
become better informed.
It is a mistake to suppose that a
good cow of inferior breeding is quali
fied to drop a good calf.
There is no line of general agricul
ture in which well directed effort will
pay so large a profit as in dairy farm

FREED FROM SKIN DISEASE
"Our boy "was born in Toronto on
Oct. 13 , 1908 , and when three months
old a slight rash appeared on his
cheek. What appeared to be a wa
ter blister would form. When it
broke , matter would run out , starting
new blisters until his entire face ,
head and shoulders were 'a mass of
scabs and you could not see a par
ticle of clear skin. Other parts of
his body were affected , but not to
such an extent. We tried about every
advertised remedy without avail , in
deed some of them only added to his
suffering and one In particular , the
Remedy , almost put the Infant
into convulsions. The family doctor
prescribed for him and told us to
baifcfc the baby in buttermilk. This
did not do any good , so we took him
to a hospKal. He was treated as an
out-patient twice a week and he got
worse , If anything. We then called
In another doctor and Inside of a
week the boy was , to all appearances ,
cured and the doctor said his work
was done. But the very next day it
broke out as bad as ever.
"We decided that it could not be
cured and must run its course and so
we just kept his arms bandaged to
his side to prevent his tearing his
flesh. We left Toronto and shortly
after our arrival In Duluth , the Cuti
cura Remedies were recommended.
We started using them in May , 1909 ,
and soon the cure was complete. You
would not think he was the same
