several kinds of tarred and felt papers
showed that none was injurious to the
trees and all were equally effective in
preventing injury from mice during
winter. The paper was cut in strips

has some useless cropper that is taking
his time and effort. but not making
him cent Of money, taking one yeai
with another. It takes the fertility
from the land and return only enough
money to pay for the actual labor. This
is no indication that the particular
crop is not profitable one to some
one else. 1t may be very profitable
crop in the hands of a neighbor or on
different soil, or going into market
different from that to which this farm
er may have access. It is generally
the case that no one farm is adapted
to the growing of all kinds of crops.
In fact it may be we'll said that this
general adaptability Of land never oc-
ours. Only a limited number of plants
will grow we'll on any one farm, and
the problem is to find those and elm
mate the ones that do not do well. II
the farmer will make this discovery
and stick to the plants he finds profit
able he will have taken~a long step
toward success. Review.
