improve the grazing this season and
destroy harmful seeds maturing to
cp.use trouble next season.
August is a good time to put tools
and machinery in shape for next sea
son. They should all be well housed,
painted, and oiled t ■ prevent damage.
In August begin the preparation for 1
fall and winter crops. Select the loca- *
tions best suited to the different crops
to be planted. Get your seed and fer
tilizer on hand ready to be used.
If you have livestock to feed and
>our land is suitable, do not forget
that the fall is the proper time for
seeding alfalfa. In procuring the seed
for this crop accept only guaranteed
western-grown seed and do not be per
suaded to use foreign-grown seed.
Crimson Clover Seed Scarce.
In time of peace and with normal
prices the department would recom
mend the seeding of bur and crimson
clover, but at the present time no
i farmer should plant to use bur or
j crimson clover unless he can obtain
i good soed at a reasonable price. The
seed of crimson clover is especially
■ scarce and high priced. The use of
i these crops is good agricultural prac
tice in normal times, but in this time
, of emergency the land would probably
j best be put in rye, wheat, or winter
oats.
If you have oats that you have
grown yourself, sell only for seed and
be sure to retain enough seed for your
own land.
Rye a Good Crop to Raise.
I Rye will prove a very beneficial
I crop. The yield compares favorably
i with wheat and the price bids fair to
be- good in proportion. The Allies in
Europe will accept rye almost equally
with wheat as a bread grain. Among
■ other considerations should be tnen
; tinned the fact that rye stands the
i winters well, doing even better than
wheat or oats. In the coastal-plain sec
tion be sure to see that you get a va
riety well adapted to that section. Con
suit vottr county agent and consider

Iye for a part of your land for the win
ter crop.
Place your orders for fertilizers and
for lime and seed as early as possible
or. account of the problem of trans
portation in full carload lots, and have
them on hand in ample time for use.
Remember that in this time of emer
gency things are apt to be delayed.
Get Ready fob the Fall Rush.
August is generally a season of lull,
during which the farmer may attend
to a great many things and get ready
for the busy season in the fall. I.*ook
up the question of storage for the
corn, hay and sweet ivotatoes. If you
have an increased acreage in corn do
not let the season of harvest come ou
without some provision for taking
care of the product, properly drying
it, preparing the surplus for market,
and storing the reserve supply so that
it will not be wasted and you can use
it during the fall, winter and spring.
Where are you going to get your sur
plus corn shelled for market, and are
good, clean, new sacks available fo,
sacking it? If not, you should make
inquiries and find out.
If your hay is stacked in the field
examine the stacks from time to time
and see that the hay is not spoiling.
Make sure that the stack is properly
rounded* out so as to shed water and
prevent spoiling of the hay, which
conies from irregular and jioor stacks.
Is there a sweet-potato storage
house at your town and can you se
cure space in it for the storage of
your crop? It' you have any consider
able quantity of sweet potatoes grow
ing it will pay you to look into this. If
there is no sweet-potato storage house
near you, inquire of your county agent,
look ii]) the total number of acres now
growing, and consider with your
j neighbors and others the advisability
| of erecting a modern storage house
for sweet potatoes. Your state agri
cultural college and the United States
Department of Agriculture will he
very glad to give you any assistance
and help to furnish plans.
In preparing your land for fall crops,
if you are in a hilly section where the
lands wash badly, do not fogret to
build your terraces before planting
the fall crops. Consult your county
agent, and get instructions in properly
terracing to prevent erosion—Weekly

RAILROADS INCREASE LOCOMO
TIVE AND FREIGHT MILEAGE.
Gratifying indications of the extent
to which the railroads of the United
States are making effective their ef
forts to produce greater transporta
tion efficiency to aid in winning the
war, are shown by statements just
sent out by the Railroads' War Board
from Washington
The railroads have gone at this pa
triotic effort as they never went at
anything before in their history, and
while the difficulties have been great,
they have been tackled with a liner
spirit and a greater determination to
surmount them.
New railroad equipment which can
be made in America is being sent to
our Allies in Europe. The problem of
our railroads is to handle a very great
increase in freight with virtually no
ijicrease in freight cars, locomotives,
or tracks. In that effort they are not
only co-operating among themselves
tut are receiving splendid support
from the public and the shippers.
This great increase in service was
tendered with a' very slight increase
in the amount of equipment used. The
number of frier.ght locomotives in
service in May last year was 24,362,
while this year the number was
21.483, an increase of one-half of one
per cent.
Last, year 5n May there were 1,800,-
842 freight cars ir. service, while this
year the number w-as 1,832,921, an in
crease of one and four-fifths per cent.
A distinct mark of progress is the
great reduction in the number of
freight cars in the shops or awaiting
repairs. Last year in May there were
113,147 cars under, or awaiting repair,
while this year only 104,061 were in
tliat condition. Locomotives in repair,
or awaiting repairs last year were
4.006 and in May this year 3,593, a re
duction of 10.3 per cent.
I>ast year railroad locomotives ran
an average of 65.6 miles per da>,
while this year they made 71.3 miles.
Freight cars made an average of
28.3 miles a day in May last year, and
this year 29.6 miles, an increase of
five per cent. In the same jieriod the
mileage of cars moving empty was te
duced by five per cent, while the nnlo
: ?e of cars moving under load was in
creased 9.5 per cent. This is ail the
more remarkable when it is realized
that May 1916 was itself a month of
heavy traffic.
