Conditions In Wisconsin.

Some Forestry Conditions in Western
Wisconsin" were discussed by Professor
L. H. PammeIl. He said in brief:
The writer has watched the movement
of forestry conditions in this section Of
the state for a great many years. The
removal of timber began in the fifties
and has continued until the present time.
A large amount of the land is wholly I'M
suited for agricultural purposes, but ad-
mlrably adapted for the growth of some
of the finest hardwood species, while a
little. to the north. of the region covered
by these observations the country Is adj
mirably adapted for the growth Of conf
erous woods; in fact, a. large amount
of the supply Of white timber used by
the mills in La: Crosse comes from the
Black river, To-day there is scarcely
any Understandable timber remaining The
soil is, a sandy loan. In many cases the
land is so billy that it Is not adapted
for agricultural purposes and yet the
land Isl being broken up and used for
the growing of tobacco and other crops.
It should be noted also that the steep
hillsides which contain some young
growth are in many cases being denuded
or used for pasture purposes. The re-
moval of this timber cannot but have
a disastrous effect upon the agricultural
lands in the valleys. The washings are
so frequent that great bitches and gulleys
have. formed leaving, the. dirt ON the
drift plains or streams. In thirty to
thirty-fve years the young trees have
made a most remarkable growth, and in
another thirty-five years plants of mer-
charitable timber can be taken from a
second growth, provided it is properly
taken care of. 1t is a noticeable fact that
in some regions every farmer has a piece
Of wooded land, which will supply him
with the needed amount Of fuel, and can
also be used for building purposes

H Democratic Convention. g,
The people are asked to determine wheth-
,er all state interests are to be sacrificed
for the reelection of Hanna as senator.
Elsewhere the platform says:
by aembodying in the Ohio code unwise
and unjust provisions for the regulation
of street railways, republicans have rem
dered competition more difficult and street
oar monopoly more secure.
BY reserving to the governor the power
ito appoint municipal officers in certain
cases. they have dangerously concentrated
the police power and have complicated
their meager concessions of home rule
with tempting opportunities for inter-
ference by the state government in the
! local fairs of cities and villages. "A
precedent has thus been set that would
altogether nullify the principle of home
rule. 90

Drains in Orchards.

1t is surprising to find so large num-
Der of orchards practically without
drainage of any kind. Too often holes
are dug in the sod and trees stuck into
them, the planter hoping that kind ma,
ture will make up for his shortcomings.
Sometimes she does, but often she does
not. The lack of drainage at the time
of setting out the trees often results in
the almost complete failure of the Or
chard if it be on heavy land, aud such
land is preferable for orchards if it be
well drained. In the putting out of
orchards the drainage of the land should
have the first consideration. This will
be all the more necessary if the land be
level and with small fall. Water then
will run off very slowly even with good
drains. Without such drains water will
remain about the roots of the trees for
days, sometimes for weeks, preventing
the approach of air to the roots.
There are thousands of full-grOwn Or
chards that it would pay to drain now.
though the drains might have to be put
closer together than would have been
the case had they been put in in the first
place, for the reason that it will be diff
cult to pulverize the soil Immediately
around and under the trees. The or
chard that is drained gets to growing
earlier in the spring than otherwise, and
this time of growth counts for much
when dry season follows it. If tree
has waterlogged roots it cannot grow
till that condition is changed. If that
change comes late in the spring, the
work of growth is shortened, especially
II long dry time follows it. The re-
suits may be very apparent in both wood
and fruit, though the grower may not
realize the cause.-Farmer' Review.

.ruit Grow ing as a Business.

In an address before the fruit-growers
association of New York recently, j. II
Hale, the Connecticut-Georgia peach
grower, said: .
The demand for fruit is yearly increas
ing at a faster rate than population.
remember the time when Hartford,
Conn, with only 10000 inhabitants, had
only one fruit dealer, and only two men
in the country grew strawberries. a
sale of six bushels of berries in one day
was an event. Now, with $4,000 popu'
lation, 200 dealers sell 500 to 1000 bush
els daily. Handsome fruit is always 10
demand.
All over the West and South orchards
of tremendous extent are being planted,
and the owners thereof expect to senc
the best of their fruit to northern an0
eastern markets. These planters nave
no special favored conditions over us
NV conditions in Connecticut are oettei
than in Georgia. For production, tht
opportunity is here. We can make more
money off smaller area. A Leading
Chicago dealer told me he would rather
have fruit from the Hudson river valley

that western growers do theirs.

The Garden and Orchard.

The experiment in the cold storage of
apples by the Iowa experiment station
of which we have heretofore given pre-
liminary account has been brought to a
close and the following report made OF
the results:
During September and October, eighty
ty-seven barrels of apples, including hf-
teen varieties, were placed in cold storage
in Des Moines. A temperature of 80 de-
grees Fahrenheit was maintained during
the experiment. Once a month barrel
of each variety was examined and then
taken out of the experiment. In this
way the last barrels had never been
touched until the experiment was con-
cluded. The last apples were closed
out during April.
Perhaps the most notable fact in re-
gard to keeping qualities, was the way
in which the Wealthy and Fameuse
kept. Up to February IA, nearly five
months after the experiment was institut
ed only A per cent of the Wealthy had de-
cayed. The characteristic quality was
still as good, if not better. The Fameuse
had lost only per cent up to this time.
On March IA, the last record OF these
two varieties was taken. The Wealthy
showed ID per cent loss and the Fameuse
l2 per cent. This was nearly as good as
the Ben Davis, which showed loss OF
IL per cent. The Dominic had lost IL
per cent, while the Roman Stem had Al
per cent decayed. The Newaukee show
ed 46 per cent decay. The Mcmahon
proved very poor keepers, showing
loss of over so per cent up to January IA.
These and the Pewaukees were then
closed out.
When the experiment concluded there
were only six varieties left. The per
cent loss given for them is then for the
whole period of six months. The
Wealthy and Fameuse had been put in a
month earlier than the others, so were
taken out on March IA, so the loss pre-
viously given shows their loss for the
whole period. The Dominic lost IA per
cent; the Ben Davis Is per cent; the
Willow Twig 10 per cent; the Joathan
% per cent; the Seek-No-Further
81 per cent; the Romantic "a per
cent. We find then that the Seek
No-Further was poor keeper also.
We see here that it is possible to keep
such desirable varieties as the Wealthy
and the Fameuse as well Us the Ben
Davis, which, however, is far inferior in
quality.
The cost of storage is not excessive,
being about l2i cents per barrel month,
or 80 cents barrel for the season. 1t
would seem then that if we can keep our
best varieties until they command a
good price, that we can expect some
profit.
