An Effort to Promote 1t ANON:
Farmers and Landowners.
The division of forestry Of the Unit
cd States department of agriculture
through a recent circular offers prac-
teal and personal assistance to farm
ers and others in establishing forest
plantations, wood lots, shelter belts
and wind breaks. Applications for the
conditions Of such assistance should be
made to Clifford Pinchot, forester,
Washington, D. G. The design of this
undertaking is to aid farmers and 9TH
er landowners in the treeless region Of
the west and wherever it is desirable
to establish forest plantation. In the
very interesting explanatory circular,
No %, Mr.. Pinchot touches upon vari.
ous aspects of forestry. Tree culture
In regions formerly treeless, he says, is
dependent largely upon agriculture.
Wherever large areas Of land have
been brought under cultivation the
growing of trees is yearly becoming
more successful.
Nearly every state Of the plains
region has, among many failures, some
admirable examples Of plantations Of

Mistaken Hog Breeding,

w. 4. Hart Of Portland, Ind, writes
In the Indiana Farmer a strong protest
against the practice of breeding sows
too young, including both bears and
sows. He does not like to breed a SOW
ut 6 to 8 months old. at which time it
should weigh 200 to $50 pounds. If it
weighs as much rs this at these ages,
it is too fat for breeding. and it is not
often that a SOW only 6 months old can
be brought in heat. He advises wait
ing until the SOW is II months old. and
he says by this time it will weigh
500 pounds and be well developed for
breeding. But either boar or SOW that
is fed to make such a weight as this
cannot be kept in condition for breed
ing. He says himself that 200 pounds
Of the SOW will be surplus fat. which
will be worked off the SOW on the
young pigs in her first litter. We,
should much rather expect that it
would kill the SOY and her litter when
the time for narrowing comes. The
chief trouble with breeding sows is to
keep them from becoming too fat
while bearing their young. After the
litter is dropped and danger from fever
has passed the SOW should be fed liber-
ally of milk forming rather than fat
making food. All that she eats will
then go to the benefit Of her young.

True Farming Shirt.

The true spirit Of farming. says Pro-
lessor Shaw. lies rather in growing
products on the farm and in turning
them to the best possible account than
In tratticking in produce. Unfortunate
ly this spirit is all too prevalent in the
west. 1t is rooted in the desire to
jump into wealth rather than to grow
into it. The man who grows nearly all
corn. who buys cattle. sheep or swine,
who literally shovels his corr into
them. leaving the greater portion Of his
cornstalks in the field. may get rich by
so doing If a shrewd dealer, but he is
not the nan who does the most to en-
rich his country. The farmer who goes:
out into a neighborhood and buys a lot
Of lambs from different neighbors to-
feed may make good money. but he
does so at the expense of the dozen.

grew his own stock and finished It In
good form, the country would be vast
~ richer than it is today. and 40 also
would the average farmer be.

Timely and Paying Work,

Many Of our most destructive insects
pass the winter either among matted
PROSTATE grass, among fallen leaves or
especially. along Usage hedges, lanes
and fence corners. Wherever such
places can be burned over in late fall,
winter or early spring the effect will
be to destroy many Of these. Instead
Of having our annual clearing up in
May, as many do who clear up their
premises at all, the Ohio station ad-
vises that it be done during one Of the
seasons above mentioned, as by May
many of the destructive insects have
left their winter quarters and are be-

WIN Bee. Freeze In winter.

0SSo N1CCAG AL w
Discussing the question "Will Bees
Freeze In Winter" in the light Of last
years experiences. A. H. Duff has said
in substance in Farm, Field and Fire
side: Bees that are in proper condition
in the hives will not freeze, otherwise
they will. II a colony of bees have
ample stores Of honey and the honey
so situated that they can partake Of it
as they need it, they will not freeze.
Hungry bees will freeze, and losses
largely occur from starvation. Bees
starve with plenty Of honey in the
hive. This is true from the fact that
during a long spell Of continued cold
weather owing to the intense cold the
cluster Of bees in the hive is unable to
expand in the least, to move sidewise
but a few inches, to where the honey is
located. Thus they starve and then
freeze with plenty of food in sight.
A good winter hive for bees is n long
deep one that admits Of all the surplus
honey being stored directly above the
bees, and a hive Of this kind will win
ter bees without freezing from the fact
that the bees have access to the honey
at all times, for the heat Of the cluster
naturally rising upward the bees can
ascend with it and thus readily reach
the honey directly above them. To
remedy this defect of the modern hive,
which is shallow. the chaff hive is
brought into use. BY thus placing
heavy packing around the bees their
natural heat is retained to such extent
that only in very severe cold weather
are they unable to reach their stores.
