Apparently Its adaptation for this purpose is higher in the Amer ican and the Canadian Northwest than in any other sections of the country. It is now quite generally conceded than an acre of brome grass will fur nish more pasture than two or three acres of native prairie. A Profitable Crop Rotation. We have found potatoes a very : profitable crop to grow for a market The work of disking alfalfa requires ior cash crop In connection with stock a little bit of skill. The disk must be farming and dairying.

Will Treat You Right It's Good Foim Not to indulge in self praise, so we will let others do the praising; that belongs to our Seeley's Best Flour. ""What they say (not our competitors) about our brand of flour, can be proved or disproved easily. Just take a sack home and do a little judg ing on your own account. Money back if you are not fully satisfied it is the very best flour you have used and that the praise you have heard is not well deserved. f I is planted to com for the silo, and the next year plowed and seeded with loat.i and clover and timothy mixed. Many excellent farmers allow their i clover and timothy meadow to remain sieded for three years, while others prefer to plow the clover sod the sec ond year, regardless of Its condition, so as nut to miss a year in the rota- i tion and also to plow the second crop of clover under for Its fertilizing .value. By the following rotation we' are enabled to maintain from thirty to forty cows, the necessary horses and other stocks to conduct our farm work, and sell from 30(10 to 4000 bush els of potatoes annually from our 100 acre farms. The silo and feeding of grain to live stock has been an Im portant factor In solving the problem of intensive farming, and has enabled a number of our best farmers to prac tically double the stock carrying ca pacity of their farms, besides enabling them to grow to perfection the po tato crop. In this way they can in corporate some of the methods of the truck farmer in their live stock busi ness and greatly add to their Incomes without Impoverishing their farms. THE HOUSEHOLD PAGE.

One acre of soil of medium fertil ity, taken to depth of 9 Inches, would weigh about 3,000,000 pounds, and con tain nitrogen, 200 pounds; potash, C000 pounds. There is enough nltro gento provide for ten crops of corn, sixty bushels to the acre, while the phosphoric acid and potash would last much longer. There are fourteen ele ments necessary to plant life, and of these carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxy gen .phosphorus, sulphur, chlorine, sil icon, calcium, iron, magnesium, potas sium and sodium are derived from the soli ,though several are also In nart derived from the air. chopped parsley, thyme and bay leaves and two cloves of garlic finely minced.

The hospital drawer should be fit ted up with the following articles: Two large and four small bed pads. To make these use two old bed quilts, one cut In two pieces and the other In four.

This Is to be used for mustard plasters. Cut In variouH sizes, some square and some longer than wide. One roll of old linen. This cloth Is used for bathing the face or for burns, cuts or sores, where lint or cotton cloth would bo harmful. Save for this purpose all old tablecloths, nap kins and handkerchiefs. One roll of long strips of muslin and flannel. Use this for sore throats and sprains, cuts and abcesses. One roll cotton. One package large, square, soft cloths. Sew on two aides for making bran, slippery elm, bop and flaxseed meal poultices. One package small sacks for dry, hot poultices, such as salt or hops. One and one-half wards of rubber sheeting. One box mustard. One cake pure castlle soap. One hot water bag. One bottle smelling salts. One small Jar of air-slacked lime and linseed oil, as it affords Instant relief for burns.
