HORNET A PEST REDUcER.
Although They Sometimes Sting, tho
Insects Are a Real BENEFIT
to Mankind.

AS the leaves are falling and the
hunting season is on, hornets nests
become the target of occasional
thoughtless hunters, says Field and
Stream. There is much more to be
said against this useless practice than
that it is q waste of ammunition. Hor-
nets or "white-faced wasps" have no
evil traits or obnoxious features. It is
true that they will sometimes sting,
but only when they are attacked in
their homes. or think their young are
In danger. The great value of these
insects is that they live entirely upon
insects, mostly flies, and, in fact, when
they are near dwellings their food is
generally the common horse fly. They
are natures greatest factors in re-
ducing this serionA pest. It is well
known that flies carry disease germs
such as typhoid fever, and it can thus
be seen that hornets have a decidedly
sanitary effect as = result of theiz de-
sirable tnsectiverous habits.

winter Protection Of Trees.

In the northwest, root killing is ono
of the most serious troubles to which
fruit trees are subject. Anything that
will prevent the severe freezing Of the
surface soil will assist In keeping the
tree roots in good condition. Late all-
tumn blowing and filming Of tho upper
surface helps-in fact, is one Of the
best methods of preventing root injury.
In addition to this, coarse litter or ma
nure spread under the tree to dis
lance Of three to six feet from the
trunk, will tend to prevent any serious
injury. During the first season it Is
easily possible to insert spade under
the tree, completely bend it over and
cover with soil. This must be well
done and the tree must be raised earl,
in the spring before growth starts.

One of our subscribers from south.

back before another seasons growth,
and, II 20. when such cutting back
should be done. "2 lG-\>.. '~ .....
The cutting back, when done at >all,
should be attended to the latter part
OF winter. Whether or not cutting
back 10 advisable must be determined
by the conditions OF the trees in each
individual case. It may be better to
let the trees grow a. they are another
year before performing the operation.
II they were but. one year old plants
when set last year 1t will doubtless be
best to wait another year before cut
ting them back. 1t is best. to have q
good, strong root system established
before the cutting Is done, so that a
large growth of top will result tho first
year thereafter.
Cutting back is done to secure q
straight stem and one with the fewest
possible branches. This increases very
materially the value of the timber.

necessary or desirable will depend
upon the present condition of the trees
as regards straightness and freedom
from branches. If cutting back Is re-
sorted to 1t will be best to keep watch
Of the trees for time after they start
in the spring and not allow too many
sprouts to grow from each stump.
Whether or not more than one shoot
be allowed to grow from each root
should depend upon the present thick
ness Of the stand and the strength Of
the root. II there are places where tho
stand Is thin, more sprouts to the root
may be left than where no trees are
missing. More sprouts may be left
than one expects to permit to remain
permanently, provided the roots are
and vigorous. Some of the
sprouts can be cut out when large
enough for stake fences. It Is well to
remember that the more sprouts to a
root the shorter will be the first sea-
sons growth and the nearer will the
first limbs be to the ground.-Prairie

without the aid Of home folk" said
an observant man. according to the
New Orleans Times Democrat. and
I can geo where they are right about
tho matter. The American mule 10
. long-eared. Quick.heeled. supple

ter how wise he may be. can do any
thing with him unless he have special
training. As q matter OF fact. the
white man In America 10 sadly DO
6cient when 1t comes to Z working
knowledge Of the mule. Up to the
present writing the American negro
is the only living person who can
claim anything like mastery when 1t
comes to the mule. Somehow there
is something in the nature OF the
black man and the mule which makes
1t easie- for them to get along. Just
what it is I do not know. But even
the black man will have his ups and
downs now and then with the mule.
and l have seen some very interest
ing instances of this kind. one OF the
most amusing being that Of an e.
tremely hard skulled- negro who never
wanted q better weapon than his head
IN any sort Of conflict with man or
beast.
"One day he fell out with his mule
Ordinarily, they get along we'll enough
together. But in some way the mule
on the day in question made the
negro mad and the fight began. In
tho first place, the negro broke his
water jug over the mules head. This
did not feaze tho animal. Grabbing
the mule by the ears and taking a
good, firm grip, the black man landed
with vigor between the mules ears,
using his head as q weapon. The blow
was q knockout blow all right, but
the trouble was that it knocked the
negro out also. Both mule and negro
fell to the ground like dead. In a
short while both were fairly good
friends again. The Japs are right.
They will need special training on
the mule proposition and no mistake,
and the negro Is about the best man
they can get to do tho training"
