OUR COMIC SECTION Our Pet Peeve d 7 Sweet Clover Is Great as Manure THE FEATHERHEADS Felix Controls the Featherhead Vote Te8t3 Show Crop of Big Value in Rotation to Be Plowed Under. Rnther astonishing result a to the iiluo of sweet clover n a nitrogen furnishing immure are announced by the Ohio agricultural experiment illa tion. After three yearn' eat It wa found that not leu than 100 pound of nitrogen wort contained In an acre of sweet clover on May 10 In any of the tent year. An application of 300 pound of any high analysts fertilizer, nch an 8-12-4, would add lew than nine pound of nitrogen to the noil. Plow Under Clover. These figure were developed In tent to determine the best time of the year to plow under sweet clover. 'It wa discovered that the plant had the greatest nitrogen content ahout the middle of May, May 10 being the Dcak accumulation In the experiment. The white iweet clover wa used In the experiment station. Since the value of sweet clover a a manure ha been demonstrated aeed bonne are handling larger and larger quantities of the aeed, carefully tented for germi nation qunllty and cleaned and re cleaned to free It from weed aeed and other foreign substances. Time to Plow Under, The outstanding practical lesson of the experiment-1 that for economic ' Boll Improvement It I best to plow i under the growth of weet clover from April 15 to May 10, no that the full growing season may be utilized by the crop of corn. Sweet clover left to stand over for the full second year produced more organic matter, It was ! found, but not much more nitrogen j than when plowed under May 10. The experiment demonstrated that an acre of sweet clover on May 10 ; contained sufficient nitrogen for the entire nitrogen requirement of 80 bushel of corn and the stalks to pro duce It and that the sweet clover ws of extreme value as a rotation crop to be plowed under In the spring.

Salt Poisoning Among Chickens Not Common It I a well known fact that the chicken, like other farm animal, ha nred of a certain amount of salt In Its ration. The fact that there have been reported a great many Instance In year gone by of chickens being killed by eating feed that contained a con siderable amount of snlt. seems to have led to a very general belief among poultrymen that chicken are very easily poisoned by common table salt Certain experiment have been car ried out hich Indicate that under the right condition chicken can tolerate i a much tarter amount of salt than has generally been supposed. It hns j been shown, for example, that chick ens elj:ht or nine weeks old could he restricted to a ration containing as high as 8 per cent of common suit without serious results. c just tjVuIsh ip2 don'tS&S n i I TS utterly unfair, of course.

The ration should consist of iihout ellnl part of grain fed In the litter and mash not too rich In nninuil protein. While a good flow of es.'s during the hatching season Is desirable, It Is better to have a smaller number of strongly fertile eggs than a larger number of less hatchable epgs. The mush should contain not over 20 per cent of dry milk and meat scrap together. If one ha plenty of lliiiid skim milk or buttermilk, It Is equivalent approximately to 10 per cent of dry milk or uient scraps.

The excavatios were made by a Field museum nrcheologlcal ex petition, under Dr. Paul S. Martin. Two large klvns, be$t described as large, single rooms, were unearthed, Ioctor Martin reports. One was con structed on the ruins of the other. Material there found, with that from several large burial places, will be sent to the museum for a new ball of nrcheoioiry. The ruins are the largest In the Southwest, and were untouched by previous explorers. On the walls ct the klvns were paintings depicting the religion and domestic habits of the people. "Great was our surprise," writes Doctor Martin, "to find fragments of perfect paintings still adhering to the walls of the up per room. They probably had not been exposed to the light of day for 3,000 years. All were perfectly geom etric, and were executed In black nnd white. The Information obtained from the lower room was of even nwre Importance. The paintings were In better condition, and were similar In design to ancient pottery, repre senting lightning, rain nnd clouds. This Is the first time such designs have been found on klva walls."
