In the case of corn the average yield on the four best farnl's was f>0 bushels an acre compared with 44 on the four least successful farms. Similar pro portions held for the other crops. In general the men obtaining the best yields kept considerable live stock, used commercial fertilizer, drained land and limed the soil when ueces .sary, used good seed of varieties adapt ed to local conditions and treated their seed to prevent diseases, and followed good methods of ^cultivation. No one thing had a greater Influ ence on comparative profits than the live slock returns per head. On the four most successful Clinton county furniH the yield of butterfut per cow was ICO pounds, compared with 9n pounds on the four least successful farms. The best farms had one calf per cow every 14 months, compared to one every to months on the least successful farms, other comparisons In favor of the most successful farms were: 8.9 per pent pigs per sow per year, .compared with fl.C; 0.3 eggs per lien per year, compared with 15.8; and 1.8 chickens, compared to 1.2. One of the four most profitable farms hud enough live stock to consume 1.251 bushels of purchased corn per year In addition to 2,400 bushels grown on the farm. On the four most successful farms the average amount of corn con sumed was 2,702 bushels compared with 2,015 hustmls on the four least successful farms. fall, including much of Kansas aibd Nebraska, western Oklahoma, north-v| eis-tern Colon do, central Montana, and the drier portions of the Columbia basin of Oregon and Washington.

Another important practice which showed profitalUe results on the most successful farms was the purchase of tunkuue fur hogs. Operators of these farms recognized that most farm feeds are deficient in protein. They consequently sui%*U*mented home grown feeds with purchased protein concentrates.

These farms also hud sales of dairy products averaging $209 a year. In general il was noted that the most successful farms were better equipped with machinery than the least successful farms, although it was recognized that a Ido-acre farm may easily he overequipped. It was found that tne best 10 nor cent, of the 400 farms •ffivestiguted yielded an average yearly Income, from 1910 to 1922. sufficient to cover 5 per cent interest on their capital, and $1,405 for labor and management, and In addition an important share of tlie milk, meat, poultry, eggs, vege tables, fruit and fuel .consumed in the farm homes. Supplies thus obtained with the saving made on house renl, added an average of .$005 a year to the fi rm income.

While a fariiiex here und there made, good profits during the wowa period of the depression, others failed to earn a reasonable profit and a fair wage for their labor even in the war boom y’ars. Most of the 100- acre farmers did well during the pros perous period from 1910 to 1919. But in the period from 1910 to 1915 only about half of them succeeded In fuuk- nlg 5 per cent on, their capital and a wage of $300 for their labor In addi tion to the family living from the farm. Good Plan for Heading Back Young Apple Tree ’ Young apple trees should be headed hack to about 20 to 30 inches from the | ground. If it Is a one-year-old tree then all that Is necessary Is to cut off the top the desired height. If It Is a two-year-old tree then the central lead er should be removed and from three to five lateral branches retained, these being cut buck to about 8 to 10 Inches. In each case the lateral branches f should be cut to an outside bud, in order to cause the tree to spread prop erly. After the tree has passed its thlyd year about nil that is necessary Is to take out interring branches and kegp the tree from becoming too dense. If the tendency is for the tree to pro duce long slender branches, then these should he shortened in the same way that peach limbs are shortened In, un til the tree begins to fruit, after which time little pruning will be necessary with tlie exception of thinning out the Interfering branches.

Building Stave Silo The main feature in building a silo is to keep the silage as slightly ex posed to outside air as possible. For that reason a place that lias a tight bottom and sides is regarded as neces sary. In recent years, silos mode of staves, held together by iron hoops, have been popular. These stave silos are manufactured and sold by men in different parts of the country, who make a specialty of manufacturing them. The farmer need have no dif ficulty in setting them up. Frank D.
