If the phosphorous con tent of these soils is to be kept up they must receive an application c phosphate at least once in a rotation. Dairy: Ensilage is now a complete feed. It should be fed Iwith hay anil some mill feed. For dairy cows 30 to 40 pounds daily in two feeds after milking is an ordinary amount. It can be fed to advantage to nearly all classes of livestock. The costs of silos in some Instances have been saved in a single year. The silo may be home made or of the manufactured or "patent" type. LIGHT, NOT CLIMATE, REGULATES PLANT LIFE A. B. Cre .

Because of the powerful lift, he can easily raise the cutter bar to pass over any field obstruction or to ex treme height, when neces sary. A foot lever, working in conjunction with the hand lever, makes the lift simple and easy. He will never have to bick op to get start, even In the heaviest hey. The knile starts cutting the Instant the mower is thrown in (ear no lost motion. You will see big advantages la the drive on this machine it's xtremely simple the gears are so placed that one est holds the other aet in mesh constantly. The John Dear wiU cut all of the grass for years to come a simple adjustment takes up all lag in the cutter bar, without affecting the centering of the knife. If the knife ever needs re centering, a special adjustment is provided. The John Deere Is the simplest, most powerful and best -built mower we have ever seen. We know it will appeal to too.
