use much if you do, you stop up the
pores and the bark will slough off to
the injury of the tree. / used it ten
years ago by applying meat skin and
the trees first rubbed when the
grease was plentiful suffered from it
but not a tree has ever been touched
by them till last summer after one
had blown down; then they skinned
every limb on it, but they did mot touch
the body Any animal flesh will
repel them; but grease from meat
has the advantage of lasting longer.
HIGH TRIMMING.
One other hindrance to success
with apple trees is the effects of the
sun on their bodies when trimmed
high. Under such trimming of
young trees you will almost invari,
ably find the bark loose on the south
side, caused by the heat of the sun
aided by the tossing of the trees by
the winds. It is pretty much the
same principle on which the boys
loose the bark on sourwood to make
flutes: he rubs to produce heat and
then twists to make it loose
My remedy is TO so tie about the
body any old bag or old garment as
TO shade the body on south side.
FUNGOUs DISEASES
Fungous diseases of both body and
leaf do much in weakening the vital
ity of trees. The leaf prepares the
food for the tree as the stomach does
for animals, hence any impairment
of the leaf necessarily cuts off the
supply of food, withou which neither
vegetable nor animal life can be
maintained. There is a subtlenese
about the ravages of this class of
diseases that causes them to be over
looked, and therefore they have
time to get stronger hold so the
injury from such cause is far greater
than is usually supposed.
The bark of trees, on both body
and limb, performs vital function
too, just as does the skin on animals
and when diseased, harmful results
follow. WIN. A. BARBREY.

THE VALUE OF STABLE MANURE.

In recent report of the Oklahoma
Station Director Fields makes the
following statements regarding the
value of stable manure, which apply
TO other portions of the country as
we'll as TO Oklahoma:
On the outskirts of every town in
Oklahoma may be seen a collection
Of manure piles that have been hauled
out and dumped in waste places The
plant food in each ton of this manure
is worth as least $2-that is what
Eastern farmers pay for similar ma
terial, and they make money by do
ing it. And yet, almost every livery
man has TO pay some one for hauling
the manure away. This is simply
because farmers living near these
towns are missing chance to secure
something for nothing-because,
perhaps, the profit is not directly in
sight. But from most soils there is
handsome profit possible from a
very small application of stable ma
nure.
On the farm of the Oklahoma Agri
cultural Experiment Station is an
acre that has been in wheat for eight
years. It had never been manured.
In the fall of 1898 one half of the
acre was manured at the rate of Is
tons per acre and the other was left
unmanured. When the crop was
harvested, in the summer of 1899,
the manured piece yielded at the
rate of 80 bushels per acre and the
'unmanured yielded but IL. bushels
per acre. An increase of Is bushels
of wheat was secured the first year
from an application of Is sons of
stable manure. If all of the effect OF
the manure were exhausted the first
season there were Is bushels of wheat
to pay for hauling about 10 loads OF
manure. But the effect is lasting
and extends through period of sew,
eral years.
Here is a feasible plan TO increase
the wheat crop: Put every bit OF
manure obtainable into the soil
Eighteen hundred bushels of wheat
will pay for one man and team haul
ing manure for 450 days, and the
profit is directly in sight.

pletely accomplished the yield from
such lands will be more satisfactory
than the harvest from old fields. In
fact, in many instances, it would be
wise and economical for the farmer
to plant his old wogn and washed
fields to forest and clear land for oul
tivation."
The author recommends various
methods of bringing such land into
productivity, from the use of dyna.
mite TO the grazing of Angora goats
thereon. GUY e. MITCHELL.

a NEW BULLETIN, CLEARING NEW
LAND"

Correspondence Of The Progressive Farmer.
There are but few farms that have
not patch overgrown with scrub
bushes and small trees which the
farmer has neglected to clear, owing
probably TO lack of time or dislike to
tackle a hard job or maybe TO his
belief or notion that the ownership
of land imparts responsibility, even
If untitled. Is is often these small
tracts, if properly cleared and titled,
which will be of profit TO the owner.
IF they are not to be cultivated they
should be converted into wood lots.
Franklin Williams, Jr., the author
Of a new farmers bulletin (NO. 15O)
on Clearing New Land states, 'if
he is benefactor of mankind who
succeeds in making two blades of
grass grow where only one grew be-
fore, how much more benefcent is
The mission of making grass grow
where only bushes were wont so
thrive"
This balletin contains many
practical hints TO farmers who own
scrub patches for itsuggests not only
different methods of clearing, but
also the meth ! of cultivation of this
cleared land al \ what crops TO grow
thereon.
There is no question" states Mr..
williams, ''about the profitable cul-
aviation of new land. The problem

correspondence of The Progressive Farmer
1t is quite probable that farmers
generally do not fully realize the
scope and extent of the Farmers
National Congress, as otherwise they
would take much deeper interest
in it. The topics discussed are more
particularly those of a national or
International character, quite differ
ent from what is generally on the
programme at farmers institutes.
The following is copy of the pro-
gram for the 1902 meeting:
l. Inter oceanic canal; 2. Ma
tional irrigation; 8. Reciprocity
how may it affect agricultural inter
ests? L. Effect of present insular
possessions on the agriculture of the
United States; 5. Preservation of
forest and fruit trees and reforesta-
tion; 6. Injurious insects, insect
pests and fungi;7. What part of a
mans farm does he sell when he
sells the crop? 8. Postal reforms
particularly affecting the farmer; 9.
Mutual relations of Northern and
Southern farmers 10. Dairy insects
Of the United States as related to the
markets of the world IL. Farm prod
Hcts other than dairy products in the
markets of the world; IL. The labor
problem from the farmers stand
point; Is. How can we best build uI
our merchant marine?
The Farmers National Congress ii
made up of delegates and associate
delegates appointed by the Cover
nors of each State. Every Governor
appoints as many delegates as tht
State has representatives in bott
Houses of Congress, and as many
associate delegates as he chooses.
The meeting will be held at Macon,
Ga, Oot 7-1O, and the people of that
city will give a hearty welcome &c
all who attend.
The Southeastern Passenger Asso
citation has granted a rate of one fare
for round trip; and there is a fail
Indication that the other passenger
associations will make better than
an excursion rate.
The men who will be invited &c
take part in the program will be the
choicest that can be selected, and
each one will be an Acknowledged
leader in his line. Isn't it about
time the farmers took a practica,
hand in helping to solve the prob

They AL AGREE.

The advocacy of Federal control Of
trusts was not original with President
Roosevelt. The report of the Indus
trial Commission is conclusive on tais
point. says the Courier-Journal.
For example the commission asked
John d. Rockefeller what legislation
he would suggest. He said: First,
Federal legislation under which corDo-
rations may be created and regulated,
If that be possible"
Mr.. Archbold, vice-president of the
Standard Oil Company, said to the
commission: tine next great and. to
my mind, inevitable step OF progress in
the direction of our commercial de-
velopment lies in the direction Of nat
lonal or Federal corporations"
Henry II. Rogers, another Standard
Oil magnate, when asked whether he
would favor this suggestion of Mr..
Archbold's answered. Most certain

fame, said. Il would be very much in

James b. Dill and Mr.. Pam. trust
lawyers. expressed themselves along
the same lines.
1t is evident, therefore, tnat the idea
.of Federal supervision of corporations
originated with the trust magnates
themselves and their attorneys. The
President adyertises himself as the
enemy of the trusts by adopting their
suggestions.
