Cow Peas in the Orchard.

CONDENSED from Farmers Review STEM
ograpnic Report of Illinois State Horti-
cultural Convention)
Q.-Is it not an advantage to SOW
COW peas in the orchard the fourth
year and then pasture it with hogs?
Mr.. Riehl-That practice is all right.
I do it, and think it is better than the
cultivation l give my orchard l had
a peach orchard on a side hill that I
could no longer cultivate, as it was
washing so. So put in COW peas and
let the hogs eat them. However, l
lost some trees from mice that got into
the COW peas So the last season
moved the COW peas, hauled them Off
md made them into hay.
Q.-Would you seed your peas to
grass after two years of good cultiva-
ton?
A. w. Stanton-I would not, but it
depends to a large extent on the kind
of soil. The practice with us Is to
cultivate only till the trees come into
bearing. and then stop. Keep the
weeds or grass moved down.
Mr.. Riehl-I think the question is
not asked right. We should not make
any hard and fast rule; we must get
at the principle of what we are doing
1t has been said to cultivate your pears
till they come into bearing and then
rest your trees.

fertilizers for Wheat.

The Ohio Station has been making
AN interesting experiment on fertlllz-
ing wheat. TIE marked effect on the
growth Of the wheat plant, which is
usually observed after the application
of fertilizers carrying soluble phos-
phoric acid, such as acid phosphate or
dissolved bone black, together with the
low price at which plain acid phos-
pilates can be bought, as compared
with fertilizers containing nitrogen
and potash, have led many farmers to
the use of this material alone, believ-
ing that they can supply sufficient
nitroge:l by growing clover, and that
potash is not needed. The trials made
covering period of years show con-
clusiyely that the clover is not fur
nishing sufficient nitrogen to meet the
demands of full crop, and that it is
more economical to use a fertilizer
containing a small percentage of nitro
gen (anlmonia), even though the cost
be somewhat Increased, than to use
one which carries only phosphoric acid.

suinnerlne Pigs.

Let pigs run with the dam until
twelve weeks old, provided she is fed
literally with warm, we'll balanced
ration of shorts, oats, corn meal ana
screenings, says Farm, Stock anu
Home. This last mentioned food LOT
hogs, of which the Northwest has an
immense bulk, is lost to the farmers
and being utilized by sheep feeders at
the Twin Cities and other central
points. To the above list OF foods add
a ration of oil meal, bran, and even
corn on the cob. Let the little pigs
also have access to whole oats. care
should be used so as not to overteed
the SOW. Once off her feed she will
fail to produce milk, and it is dif11cult
TO restore good digestion and milk pro-
duction. The clover field must go hand
in hand with this good feeding, but on
stormy days they are much pe''ei
cared for in. their pens with an album
dance of freshly cut clover. BY July
there should be field of peas, where
the pigs will grow and do we'll. The
field of peas is next in value to the
clover field. If not convenient to pas
ture the peas, then cut and feed to the
young pigs. To this method OF feed
ing upon clover and peas, add regular
feeding hours for concentrated feed
This is Of vast Importance. Pigs
should not be allowed to stray all over
the farm. When confined at night III
well-regulated stables and in well-llt-
tered yards, there is made large re-
turn for food consumed. The pigs
should be promptly returned in the
morning to the pasture after feeding
BY this method little if any manure is
lost, and steady increase in the Ter
tility of the soil will be the result.
BY such methods of feeding during
the summer and finishing or ripenine
the animal on a mixed food of squash
shorts, oats, peas, meal and corn, the
previous feeding of bulky clover ant
peas will have distended their stom
achs and put them in fine form tt
ripen rapidly into the desirable hog.

NATIONAL CONTROL OF TRUSTS.
SuEEe stions rs to the Proposed Con
stitutionnl Amendments.

stitutiOnn1 Amendment.
Kansas City Star: The proposition to
amend the federal Constitution SO as to
empower the national government to deal
with trusts is rot so simple as it seems.
If the question comes before congress it
will arouse az! immense amount OF dls-
cuSsion and controversy and there VIII
be great difference in agreeing on the
form of the amendment. 10 be ettectlEe
it should transfer from the states to the
rational government the authority to ere
ate large corporations whose business ex-
tends to more than one state, md should
provide also that within a specified pc
Rod every existing corporation of this
sort shall surrender its present state
charter and reorganize under charter
to be obtained from the national govern
ment In this way it would be possible
to correct some of the existing abuses of
over capitalization, for the law providing
for a national charter for corporations
should also provide for a commtssi on
whose duty shall be to carefully inNeSti-
cate the assets and business of every cor
poration asking for charter, and TO limit
its Capitalization absolutely to the amount
of money actually invested in the enter
prise Over capitalization is one of the
greatest evils in this era of corporations,
and it is one which the states seemingly
are powerless to prevent.
A transfer from the states to the ra-
tional government of the power TO create
large corporations would give to congress
the full control of trusts. which is essen
tial to any effective suppression or regula-
ton of them. But such Il change prob
ably would be opposed by the Demo-
cratic party on the grounds that it is in
creasing the power of the national gov
eminent and diminishing that of the
states. 1t is difficult, however, to see how
the national government can accomplish
anything with the trusts unless it has
full control over the granting of charters
for great corporations. A constitutional
amendment merely prohibiting the exist
ence of combinations which restrain COM
petition, and authorizing the attorney
general of the United States to take &C
ton against such combinations. would
bring the national power into collision
with the state governments under whose
charters the trusts exist.
Absolute national control of large cor
porations seems to be necessary to any
effective action by the federal government
to overcome the evils of trusts.

check. The ladybirds or ladybugs are
by far the most important factors in
the destruction of plant lice, as both
the adults and young feed ravenously
upon them. There is notion preva-
lent that ladybirds, in some way or
other, produce plant lice. Natural laws
will not permit such state of affairs.
Like begets like in the insect world,
just as persistently as it does in the
higher animals The progeny OF a
ladybird is always ladybird like the
parent insect. The young of a lady
bird. however, looks very different
from the adult. In fact, the young OF
some species resemble minute alliga-
tors in general appearance, and are
gaily colored. They feed almost en-
tirely upon soft-bodied insects.

Success Depends on Management.

When the market quality is consid-
cred we find many desire size, says
Poultry, Fruit and Garden. The best
breed for size can easily be named, but
it is not the "best Breed" however.
1t may have size, and yet lack quality
of flesh, and it may be of excellent
quality of flesh, full of juicy meat on
the breast, and not be large. 1t may
quickly fatten on a small amount OF
food, and be easily kept on city lot,
and yet with all these points in its
favor it may be a very Indifferent
breed for laying. Some breeds can
give better results on corn than will
others, and some will fatten so readily
on corn that they will be rendered use
less as layers altogether, for there is
an art in feeding, and it is often the
case that the "best breed" depends on
tho 'best man." for upon the manage
ment of the flock depends the results
expected.

1t is even met with in Alaska. Its
poisonous properties are found in all
parts of the plant, seed. leaves and
root. 1t has been reported that chick
ems are frequently killed by eating the
seeds, and horses by eating the
leaves. But it is asserted that sheep
eat the leaves with relish and apparent
IMMUNITY. The root has been known to
kill people who ate it for something

Heavy Pruning.-Heavy pruning OF
old trees will cause them to make
extra efforts to produce a heavy crop
for a few years, but it will be at the
cost of the trees. The wounds made
will never thoroughly heal; and even
if new wood grows over the cut you
will find a rotten place in the tree
which will continue to increase until
the tree dies. The first indication OF
the trees decay will be growth on
the body of the tree near the ground
of toadstool-looking substance, which
will continue to increase even after
the tree is dead, and if there are any
large roots near the surface it will
sometimes grow on them. Never cut
any wood from an old tree except dead
or broken limbs. Clean up all grass
and weeds during the winter or early
spring and burn them. 1t pays. for ii
