And Then Pay 15 Gents a
Nitrogen to Take the
What You Bum Up.
The evil practice of burning off
the grass and vegetable matter that
would put humus and fertility into
the land seems to be confined to no
particular section of the South. The
last issue of the Oklahoma Farm
Journal says:
"Putting off plowing until spring,
raking the stalks and grass together
and burning it, listing in the corn
without plowing or other previous
preparation of the soil, all of these
very wrong ways of farming seem to
be still the rule in Oklahoma instead
of the exception. The ; vegetable
matter which every Oklahoma soil
needs so much is consumed by fire
and the nitrogen, costing 1 15 cents a
pound in commercial fertilizers, goes
up in smoke." I

What One Mare Has Done.
Messrs. Editors: Some people do
not believe in raising live stock, bat
I do, and to prove that it is one of
the most profitable industries in
which a man can engage, I am going
to tell you what one mare has done.
My father purchased this mare
some 8 or 10 years ago. Her first
colt was a mule, sold for $215. Sec
ond was. a mare, valued . at $ 1 7 5 ,
which has had three mule colts
worth about $300. Third was a horse,
sold for $135. Fourth a! mule colt
which died soon after birth. Fifth,
a mule working on our place, valued
at $165. Sixth, mule, worth $125.
Seventh, mule, died soon after birth.
Eighth, mule, worth $50. Total pro
duct from one mare, $865. This was
done with very little expense, as the
colts were fed almost wholly on hay
grown on our own farm, and mare
hardly ever had to quit work on ac
count of, colts. r
