A t ige appearence some alfalfa fields have nowadays? This shows the difference in root depth between alfalfa and firasses. The alfalfa roots are down n moist ground while the grass roots are not. Such alfalfa should be plowed up and started over. It doesn't pay to try to thicken up an old stand with new seeds. Speaking of grass -silage, one farmer told me he became interested after attending the Farm day Aug. 11, at John Lindsay's farm near McHenry. The catch is, though, he needs another silo, a field cutter, wagons, blower, etc., which all add up to better than $4,000. Should he make the investment? His is a rough farm, needs and gets excellent care with soyabeans and corn on the contour this year and some marginal land planted to trees.

Electricity helps do the washing on about 43 per coif of all U. S. farms, replies from about 8,400 farm people indicate. The next most common appliance is the electric refrigerator which is reported in 38 per cent of the farm homes. One farm in four throughout the country has an electric vacuum cleaner but the proportion is over half on farms in the Middle Atlantic, East North Central, and Pacific states. Several electrical appliances still are not common on. farms. Only one in 10 of the farmers had an eledtric water heater. Foot-, operated sewing machines apparently are still widely tised by farm women. Only 7 per cent had one powered by conservation district. ^••/Slarathon Speaker Mr. arid Mrs. Frank T.

When man learned how to shoot' a stream of electrons at a distant target and catch them when they bounced back, that was the beginning of radar. But, in order to focus on the area you wanted to observe--through fog or night--jrou had to be able to draw a bead on your target. Broadcasting electronic impulses in all directions, as in radio, would not do. So, radar sights its target by firing through* a silver tube. Silver is the best metal for this use because it is tops in "reflectivity". Used as a curious kind of "gun barrel", it absorbs less of the passing electronic current than would a tube made of any other metal. » MAIL CARRIER DBOWNlED ChArles Chaveriat. 58, of, Chicago,] a mail carrie^, drowned last week Tuesday in Lake Marie, three miles > southwest of Antioch, in Lake county.; He and members of his family were preparing to return home from their j vacation when the accident occurred, i Chaveriat, who was subject to epi-, leptic seizure, is believed to have' suffered an attack and fell into the1 water from the end of the pier.
