Not illustrated. 1917 Excerpt: ...The housewife who sets before her family more than the family can or should eat, or who neglects to make over into palatable food that which may be left from the meat, is equally wasteful; and to over-eat is not only wasteful and unhealthful, but extravagant. All Europe is living on half rations and the people are much more healthy for it. We must practice household economy--we must double our available food supply by saving the half we now waste, and we will. The American People are not asked to starve themselves. They should eat plenty--but wisely and without waste. NO FOOD TO BUY FARMERS WASTE TEN TIMES AS MUCH POTASH AS WE IMPORT THE fertility of our soil must be preserved. In many sections of the country it must be improved. This means fertilizer, one of the important elements of which is potash. For many years the farmers of this country have been made to believe that the only suitable form of potash for this purpose is that obtained from the deposits of Germany. As a matter of fact we are not dependent upon Germany for potash, nor need we have been for many years past. The trouble is we have thrown away millions of tons of potash every year. Wood ashes should be carefully saved and applied to the land. They contain from 4 to 6 per cent of potash. Dead leaves should not be burned, but plowed under, as every ton contains six pounds of potash. Different varieties of straw and hay contain from 16 to 54 pounds to the ton and this litter, in moderate amounts, adds to the fertilizing value of stable manure. It Is Not What We Buy. It Iii What We Produce That Means Prosperity--We Must Not Waste What We Have. Conservative estimates show that there were approximately 6,652,376 tons of potash in the farm, stable and barnyard manure produced in this country in 19...

Not illustrated. 1917 Excerpt: ...in the state. A plan should be worked out that would meet with the endorsement of every organization. Service, not selfishness, should be the motive. MEETING THE COUNTRY'S CALL 'HE Farmers Dispatch, published at St. Paul, Minn., recently conducted what it appropriately termed "My Utmost" contest, offering numerous prizes for the best examples of what had been done by farmers and their wives to increase production and conservation of food. Intense interest in the contest was manifested, more than 800 articles having been submitted. With the consent of Mr. S. E. Elliott, editor of the Farmers Dispatch, we are enabled to reproduce two of the prize-winning articles as examples of what any farmer and farmer's wife can do to assist in meeting the food requirements of the nation. The first prize was awarded to Mr. John L. Kubik, of Medford, Wis., who gave a splendid demonstration of how, on even a small farm and under adverse circumstances, one little bit of extra production made possible another little bit of extra production and all resulted in greater conservation and production, which is the general plan of farming so greatly needed in the United States during the present war crisis, and which can be duplicated by any farmer. The third prize was awarded to Mrs. Marie O'Brien, of Malta, Mont., who gives us an example, not only of increasing production by carefully guarding those things which make continuous production possible, but of intelligent and patriotic food conservation as well. The two articles follow: Here is the wonderful story of achievement written by John L. Kubik, Medford, Wis.: Our beloved country has undertaken a task of tremendous importance to all mankind--the crushing of kaiserism. To bring this issue to a successful conclusion, ev...

Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... themselves to the soil, climate, and method of farming so that they thrive and multiply to the detriment of the crop we desire to grow. They spread rapidly because they produce many seeds--some weeds produce as many as one and a half million seeds. The seeds of some weeds, like pigweed, mustard, and stinkweed, will live in the soil for many years and germinate when conditions are favorable. (See Table on Vitality of Weed Seeds.) Some of the worst weeds spread both by seed and underground stems and roots. These are the worst weeds and are the most difficult to eradicate or control. Some weeds protect themselves by being thorny or having a disagreeable taste and odor. Others are poisonous to both man and stock. Weeds stay right on the job all the time. They have learned to fight for their lives and don't give up without a real battle. Weeds Reduce Yields Weeds rob the crop of room in the soil, shut off the sunlight and use up plant food and moisture needed by the crop, because they are vigorous and grow more rapidly than the crops. They occupy land that should be producing crops, increase the cost of handling, and reduce the value of such of the crop that does grow. From Where Did Weeds Come? We are more concerned with how to get rid of the weeds we have, than from where they came, but not all the farms have all the worst weeds yet. Hence, if it is realized fully that these weeds come to us from some other district or country, we will be on the lookout for any new ones. Weeds that may be practically harmless in one district or country, may be very bad in another, due to a difference in farming methods, soil, climate, etc. Wild oats have practically disappeared from the older farming regions where a systematic rotation of crops, ...

Excerpt from I H C Feed Grinder <p>The table below indicates the speed of the International feed grinder when operated with an IH C gasoline engine equipped with regular pulley from 4 to 20-horse power. In order to secure the greatest capacity with these grinders, they should be operated at maximum speed. This will permit feeding the grinder to its fullest capacity. The minimum speed for the 8 and 10-inch grinders is 300 revolutions per minute, and the maximum speed, when the fly wheel is used, is 600 revolutions per minute. When run at a speed above 600 revo Iutions the fly wheel should be removed. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
