From Birth to MaturitjwOUve Heifers Bome Grain. The problem of caring for the dairy calf Is by no means solved by the end of the mlld-feedlng period. The animal should be kept gaining constantly from birth to maturity if good growth Is to be expected. Calves are frequently well cared for up to four or five months of age and then given little at tention. If good growth Is to be se cured, heifers under a year of age re quire grain in addition to hay or pas ture. 81nCe the condition of the heifer at pasture is not so closely observed as when in the stall, the heifer beyond the milk-feeding period Is more likely to , be neglected during the summer when on pasture than during the winter months, TIME FOR CUTTING ALFALFA When Plants Turn Yellow It Bhould Be Cut Immediately—Soil May Be In Need of Lime. When for any reason alfalfa turns yellow it should be cut Immediately and removed from the field. A care ful examination at such a time may indicate a lack of effective Inoculation, disease, or the need of lime. Yellow ing sometimes occurs, however, when , nil of these conditions are apparently ; favorable to the growth of the alfalfa. AIM FOR HIGHER STANDARDS Achievements of Today to Become Mere Frequent and Production Will Be Raised. In the future there will be higher standards of farming, whether It be a fruit farm or other branches of agri culture. The achievements that today read like the fairy tales of our child hood will become more and more fre quent until the whole average of farm ing production will be raised. FERTILIZER FOR GAROEN USE Should Contain Three Chief Ingredi- Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and Potash. For general garden crop* a fertilizer should contain the three chief Ingred ients In the following per cents: Nitro gen, four; phosphoric add, eight; and potash, ten.

Wilson's Order Will Prescribe Regu lations Under Which Some 20 Fun damental Foods Will Be Manufsc > tured and Sold. Washington.—Virtually all the sta ple food consumed by the American people will be put under government control Novenfber 1. The food administration announced that within a few days President Wil son will Issue an executive order re quiring that manufacturers and dls- 1 trlbutors of some 20 fundamental foods operate under license restric tions designed to prevent unreason able .profits and to stop speculation and hoarding. Regulations will be prescribed for meat packers, cold gtorage houses, millers, canners, elevators, grain deal ers and wholesale dealers and retail- 1 ers doing a business of more than $100,090 annually In the commodities ' to, be named. Issuance of the President's procla mation has been delayed, the an nouncement said, that the food ad ministration might complete confer- j ences with .representatives of trades ' and producers and consumers. "It has been the desire of the food I administration," the announcement j continued, "to, secure the co-operation of all patriotic men in the various trades so as to eliminate speculation, hoarding, unreasonable proflts, waste ful practices, etc., in the great distri bution system of the country. "The food administration has se lected about 20 basic commodities, and their products us forming the prime basis of life, and has limited its , licensing control to the commodities, ; and also, In so far as practicable, eliminated the smallest units of busi ness In these staples. "It Is the purpose of the food ad ministration to effect conservation In the commercial use of these commod ities, and to keep them owing to ward the consumer In direct lines through the channels of trade In as economical a manner as possible. The administration does not wish to dis turb the normal activities of business and no business factor performing a useful function will be expetced to surrender that function. "The proclamation will require all of those handling the commodities, concerned to apply for license before November 1, upon forms which will be supplied on application to the food administration. GERMANY'S MILITARY BTRENQTH SHOWS MARKED DECREASE Washington.

SECOND DRAFT ARW DATE WILL LIKELY BE FIXED 80ME TIME IN DECEMBER OR ' JANUARY. 818 DEFICIENCY IS EMSTINB National Army Divisions Formed Out of First Increment, Are All Bhort of ] Quots—Room for Rsglmsnt st Eseh Cantonment. Washington.—Discussion of the ad- I visablllty of expediting the call for the second Increment of the draft army now Is In progress at the war depart- ( ment and it appears likely that the dkte may be fixed for some time In De- 1 cember or January. I Mobilization of the first increment of 687,000 mea is now ear enough ad-j vanced to show clearly that there will be a big deficiency for the 17 national army divisions. More than 250,000 of the first increment are still to be as sembled; but it already is evident that there will be available at the 16 can-1 tonments quarters for an additional] regiment at each post and at soms for a full brigade of two regiments. j The strength of,tbe new regimental, organization Is 3,600 men. With a regiment linking at each cantonment, this alone would mean a shortage of nearly 50.000 men. In addition, there , 'has been authorised a separate dlvl | slon of negro troops, which means | nearly 30,000 men withdrawn from the l | original number assigned to the It cantonments. j The shortage is due part tally to the {necessity of taking out of the national larmy men to fill up national guard di visions. Two complete national dlvl ! alons of southern troops hare been ! absorbed In this way. The remnants lof three other southern natloaal army' divisions will be consolidated to form a single divisional unit, and the sur plus men from other camps will be sent south to make up the mi*sir.g divisions. [ Drafts on the national army forces must be made to fill up the enlisted personnel of the aviation service, the meldcal corps and the service battal ions needed behind the fighting lines abroad. Eventually there will be ' 250,000 men In the last named service aloi.e, and the aviation and the medi cal service will take nearly as many I more though not all of them will be taken from the national army. HAIQ'S ATTACK CHECKED . BY DELUDE OF RAIN Already Swsmpy Region Converted Into Qusgmirs. For the first time since he started I his series of attacks against the Ger ! man positions In Flanders, Field Mar- I shal Haig has had to cease at. opera tion before all the objectives were at talned. It was not the German guns, however, that stopped the British. It was a more than usually heavy rainfall which started during the battle and I turned the already swamp region over which the men were supposed to pass Into a veritable quagmire from which they could not ur.track themselves for | a forward more. The drive, as has been customry in Haig's strategy was started in the early hours of Friday morning and extended from near the Houtholst wood to below the Ypres-Menln road. At sevefal points the British troops succeeded In gaining ground over fronts ranging up to a thousand yards ibut here the rain Intevened and the fighting ceased for the day. The struggle was particularly bit te rto the north ofe. Poelcapelle and around Passachendaele. In the lat tor region the Oermar.s apparently have massed their strongest array of troops, hopeful of being sble to stay a further press forward by Oi«r British " toward the Ostend-LBle railroad. The Oermans were expecting the battle for several hours prior to the signal for the British to attack they I laid down a heavy barrage fire all along the line, interspersing the rain of steel and explosive shssls with as phyxiating gas bombs.

Owing to the greatly Increased acreage of beans- In Wisconsin this year It Is highly Important that grow er* become familiar with conditions which affect the crop.
