No farmer ever gets too old to learn,
but the wisp farmer doesn't wait until
he is old to learn.

Don't try to Lift water by a suction
pump more than thirty feet. The ut-
most height to which it is possible to
suction it is 33.95 feet. The welght,of
the air has to do the lifting.
An Iowa farmer pays his foreman 25
cents for every pig over six to the sow
which reaches the age for weaning.
He likes to pay out the money, and the
foremen looks upon it as clear gain.
The bonus system is worth studying.
It will work in other fields as well as
in the piggery.
Potash is difficult to get now, not be-
cause there are no ships to carry it,
but because of the difficulty in secur-
ing railway and river equipment to
move it from the mines and store-
houses to the coast.
Corn fed the sows makes their pigs
fat before farrowing, but the pigs need •
fat only after their eyes open on this
world. Prior to that' time they need
only bone, muscle and vigor. Alfalfa
hay, bran, roots and other protein
bearing feed prepare the sow for suc-
cessful farrowing. Corn fed sows aro
the ones which die at this critical time
more than any other.—Farm and Eire -

RADIUM AS FERTILIZER.

Dr. Rushy diluted his radium three
Milligrams to a ton of water. This, he
says, will fertilize thoroughly twenty
acres of laud at an approximate cost
oe $30. The farm was Doty au acro
and one-half in extcut, but in small
patches he raised practically all the
vegetables used by northern farmers.
Fifty pounds of els solution to the
acre gave the best results in the great-
est number of cases. Some vegetables
required more,
On the whole, however, Dr. Rusby
found Iris experiments particularly en-
couraging. Cucumbers, squashes, mel-
ons, radishes, carrots, corn, cabbage
and a host of others responded most
satisfactorily to the treatment and
gave results for above their normal
output.
The use of radium as a fertilizer, Dr.
Busby avers, did not originate with

solutions of radium sats applied to

entists began to experiment with it
upon plants. Irl the beginning all of
