Planting Early Potatoes.
The earliest planting of potatoes
ought always to be much shallower
than late In the season. IL the seed Is
planted deep. with the freshly cut
pieces In contact with wet and cold
soil. the potato will rot instead Of grow
Ing. This can he prevened by cutting
the seed number Of days before
planting. and leaving the cut pieces in
a place where they will dry out rapid
~. and also be warm. Under such con-
ditions the buds will start slowly and
be of dark green color II the cut pieces
are exposed to light. as they always
should be. The more thoroughly the
pieces are dried out. the better it will
be for early planting. provided the
buds have not started so far as to be-
SIN to wither from lack Of support In
the damp soil the cut potato absorbs
some OF the moisture This not only
dries the soil around it. but increases
Its warmth also. for as the water il
dried from the soil the surface air.
which In spring Is always warmer
than the soil, comes In to take Its place.
II potato seed for early planting Is
managed In this way. the seed will not
rot In the soil. Besides. the crop will
be two weeks earlier than from UMPIRE
pared seed.-American CultivatOr.

DANIEL SINCLAIR WAS DROWNED.


Ritxville. WASH. May 23.-Coming as II
did upon the heels of the tragic suicide of
Mrs. Vehrs, the sensational drowning this
afternoon OF Dan Sinclair. one Of Ritz
villes most prominent citizens, in Cow
creek. has given the staid old residents of
this town a shock that they win long re-
member. Sinclair. in company with five
young men, started at 3 a. m. for a gen.
eral days outing. their destination being
about II miles from town. Upon arriving
Mt the creek the party ate lunch and all
went in bathing. Sinclair. who was I'M
able to swim, had waded out a few yards
from shore. accidently stepped of into
deep and treacherous pool and before his
excited companions could go to his rescue
had sunk for the last time.
The news was brought to this village.
and everything possible was done to re-
cover the body, but without avail Giant
powder will be used tomorrow in an effort
to raise the body. Sinclair was 81 years OF
age and leaves an aged father and mother
to mourn his loss.

A Year,a Mood Ahead.

There Is nothing more provoking
than trying to cook with partially green
wood. So much more wood has to be
burned to overcome the waste In turn
ing the moisture in green wood to
steam that more heat Is given out than
Is needed. 1t Is the mark of a good
farmer to have a years wood cut and
piled always in advance Of it's use.
When this Is once begun there IL real
saving in labor. as less of the dry
wood will be required.
Form Notes.
Protect the lambs against being
drenched by sudden showers.
Good money can be made in raising
sheep for mutton as well as for wool.
Quality counts.
Grease or oil on sitting hens is posi-
lively injurious. either on the hens

llirdlinx Fruit Trees.


There Ia n common opinion that CIR
ding. or the removal Of a small ring OF
bark from limb or the body OF the
tree, will induce fruiting the coming
season. as the sap coming back from
the blossom Is retarded and blossom
buds are formed for the next season.
The common practice Is to remove
ring Of the bark. Mr.. Dart, however,
advises removing spiral and finds
that this gives better satisfaction from
the fact that there Is less danger OF In
juring the tree. To make barren tree
bloom. girdling should be done the last
Of July or the first week In August.
About the only excuse for this prac-
tice Is when 1t is desired to induce
early fruiting. so as to learn the value
Of a variety as soon as possible. Cut
out one-fourth inch of bark around
somes branch that will be removed any
how In pruning. This has been prac-
ticed by experimenters, but 1t invari-
ably results in causing a dead spot
difficult to heal over when the branch
Is finally removed. 1t Is generally
agreed that the spiral system Of grind
Ing Is the most satisfactory.
