The Towner Experiments Continued from flrnt page. try. This will follow from some of the grains that was then introduced One of these was a kind of wheat. This wheat is known as the Mar quis. It came originally from Can ada. It is a No. 1 hard milling wheat when grown on dry land and it makes the very finest kind of flour. This wheat has proven itself well adapted to dry land conditions. Mr. Towner has found it to yield more than twice as much as other varieties of spring wheat that have been grown on his farm. These in elude the Dawson, which Is usually considered a good kind of wheat for dry areas. The Manchuria barley, some times called Mensury, was also sown in 1913-14. It was found that both seasons it produced far more than any other variety of barley except the Gaymols, which Mr Towner has grown for but one season. This barley is six-rowed and is a strong and vigorous grower. It matures early and is relatively hardy. Compared with the White Hulless grown beside it in 1913, it gave a very much better yield. Mr. Towner has also grown a va riety of oats in 1913 that yields very much better than the oats or dinarily grown here, u memory serves correctly these are the Lincoln and another variety that is even more promising, He is putting these grains on the market so that each farmer can only obtain but a few bushels of seed The object is to give the greatest number of farmers an opportunity to get a supply of this seed. "It is to be regretted that these experiments were not continued by the S. P. & S. Railway as there are many problems of vital interest to the dry country that have not been worked out. Mr. Towner has succeeded in getting a very fair stand of alfalfa sown along with a nurse crop of barley thinly sown, but experiment has shown that a much stronger stand was obtained when the seed was sown alone. This alfalfa will, irrigated next season. For Sale Two lots Noble's Addition; terms; $200 cash. W. J.

Friday Mr. 1 Phillips found the animal with one of her forelegs scratched or bitten as though done by a dog or coyote. The abrasions were made clear around the leg and did not look as though caused by barbed wire. By Monday the ani mal appeared listless and dejected and had the outward appearance of being sick. Mr. Phillips did not want to take any chances so brought her to town to be examined by County Veterinarian Nevel. The examination could prove noth ing. Even if infected with hydro phobia it would take more than a few days to develop. About the only thing that could be done would be to watch the animal and if rabies symptoms become pro nounced either isolate her or kill her. Mr. Phillips is a neighbor of Emil Von Lake who was bitten on the hand by a mad coyote a couple of weeks and naturally gets appre-' hensive when his stock does not look or act right. W. C. T. U.

O Lord, help ns to tear the soldiers of the foe to bloody shreds with our shells, help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their offending widows with unavailing grief.

The WiixliliiKton experiment station ha lutely published some condensed hlntjt on farm buttermnklng which are good for formers everywhere. If fol lowed there would be great Improve ment In the quality of American dairy butter. The sugKeetlone given be low should be nsed for reference: Cool the cream from the separator a oon a possible to 55 degree F. or lower. Never mix warm cream with cool cream. Mix all the cream to be cbnrned In one vat or can st least eighteen hour bef ore churning. Itlpen at temperature of 70 to 75 degree V. tor from six to eight hours, etlrrlng frequently during tbia period. Cool creum to churning temperature as soon as ripe. Let the cream stand eight boars or more tovemlgbt) at the t-burning tem Mrature. The teniiertture of churning onpht to be ui-b ns to make the butter eome in from thirty Ave to forty minutes. usually 55 to 00 degrees F. If It Is desired to ose artificial col oring It should be added to the cream lust before churning. Stop churning when the grannie are about the size of peas, varying to the size of wbeit, and draw off the but termilk. Waah the butter once with pure wa ter at the churning temperature, agi tating three or four times, and then drain. Wash a serond time with water about 4 degree above cburulng tern- peniture, agitating seven or eight time, ami drain. Add the salt wet while the butter Is In granular form, using about one to one and one-bajf ounce for each pound of batter, according to the de mands of the market Work the butter Just enough to dis tribute Uie salt evenly. If the butter I to go on the mar ket it should be put up In neat at tractive packages. A 8HEEP AND WOOL CONFER- ENCE. On June 2. 3 and 4 there was held fu Washington conference of those Interested in the sheep and wool In dustry. Among m.my Important top ics discussed were the manufacturing value of American wools, the Imphjve ment of farm and ranch methods of handling wool, the possible adaptation of foreign methods to American con ditions, the standardization of the wool clip and the prevention of losses by dog and other predatory animals. As a rule. American wools are of high quality, but the Indiscriminate sack ing of wool, the use of poor twine and of Insoluble paint la marking sheep are Jointly responsible for a loss to producers estimated at from 5 to 20 per cent of the total clip. RABBITS DESTRUCTIVE. From the standpoint of the writer it seems like a good deal of a fiasco for rabbits to be protected by law. as they are In a number of central and east ern states, when they do a very large amount of damage to farmers and gar deners. Even though they may pull up some corn and eat some newly planted seed, there Is ground for pro tecting pheasants and quail, for they more than pay for their cost of keep In the service they render. The rab bit, however, performs no such serv ice, and the only excuse for encourag ing their propagation IS tLat men and boys mny have something to shoot at Ilowever, this ought not to weigh against the financial welfare of the farmer and gardener. 8ULPHURET OF LIME. The following Is an English recipe for making sulphuret of lime, which Is recommended as a remedy for cur lug poultry of the feather eating habit Put three or four lumps of freshly burned lime the sire of an egg into a Iron pot and slake with boiling wa'er. then stir in about sis ounces of Bow ers ot sulphur and add gradually two quarts of boiling water, stirring the while.

For those who undertake the trim ming uf trees for the first time It 1 a suggestion worth remembering to saw from beneath close to the tree oa limb of considerable size. After mak ing a cut of fair depth the sawing may be done from the top (Ida. Tbla pre caution prevents the splitting down ot the limb and the marring of the trunk Just beneath. - A further safeguard la the cutting off of large limbs is to take them off a foot or more from the trunk, rater taking off the stub. All limb xhould be removed in such a way that the cut will be as cloe to the trunk a imsxlble and on a Hue with the one ot the tmnk. TOMATO BYPRODUCTS.

RIGHT MOTIVES. In determining proper motive) of conduct It is easy to perceive that the higher are more com mendable than the lower and that even an act of Justice and benevolence loses something ot Its charm when known to be in spired by, the selfish desire of human applause It wa the gay poet of antiquity who said that concealed virtue differed little from aepulcbered sluggishness. Buj: this Is a heathen sentiment, alien to reason and to truth. It is hoped that men will be hon est, but from a higher motive than because honesty Is the best policy. It Is hoped that they will be bnmane. but for a nobler cause tban the fame of human ity. Charles Sumner. RIMED QUOTATIONS. Soar not too high to fall, but stoop to rise; . Masslnger.
