The most important work to be
done for the future success of the
orchard is in preparing the soil prop
erly. Too often the man going into
orcharding is too hasty and sets his
trees in unprepared soil. The result
is short-lived trees, feeble growth,
easily affected by drouth and extreme
cold; and this man at the end Of five
years will find, if he had taken two
years time to properly prepare his
ground and then plant his trees, would
find his trees healthier, with a larger
growth than if planted two years SOON
er. II the soil is worn out, get It into
clover, use plenty of land plaster on
it, then turn under this crop and
thoroughly work it. If the soil is new,
as we find it north, then l advise not
to use any fertilizers, but clean it from
stump and stone, and pillow deep. The
danger in the north part of our state
is in having too rich soil, and not
having enough air drainage, being
surrounded by timber, causing too rap
i'd growth and blighting; but this will
soon be overcome by the timber being
cut, and the land cleared.-J. J. Mem.

The Kew to the Situation.

A bulletin of the Illinois station
says: The application Of the scales
and the Babcock test to the perform
ance of each COW gives the dairyman
the key to the situation. Where for
merly he had to grope in the dark
and trust to judgment, now he can
find out the truth for himself. With
but little outlay of time and appara-
tus he can make each cow render an
accurate account of the food and care
given her. This points out the best
individuals from which to select Off
spring in building up the herd. A
rapid improvement may be brought
about by the introduction and use of
pure bred sire of good breeding
and approved type. The continued
use of the scales and Babcock test
together with good breeding and rigid
selection soon raises the herd to a
plane of greater production and af.
fords the owner greater personal sat-
isfaction. Cows that do not respond
to good treatment should be disposed
Of at once. In case of doubt the in
dividual may be kept an additional
year, but a COW seldom has two "off
years" in succession.

Orchards of Non.Re 8 ents.

Orchards OF Non-Resldents.
1t has become quite common say
ing in the North that you can buy
land in such and such q southern
state at IS or $40 an acre and resi-
dent OF that locality will plant an
orchard on it and care for 1t for
nothing, If you furnish the trees" The
said resident is supposed to get his
pay by using the ground between the
tree rows. A large number of people
in the North have been caught by this
argument and have purchased cheap
lands in the South. They have by
proxy planted them to fruit trees and
have waited in patience for the har-
vests that were to make them rich.
We have yet to hear Of the first man
to get rich in this way. 1t Is too
easy.
In the South to-day will be found
numerous ragged, neglected, unpro-
ductive orchards. If you ask about
them you will be told that they be-
long to non-residents in the North.
The writer visited a young peach
orchard of this kind in North Caro-
lima. Tho trees were several years
old, but the ground was filled with
weeds and brambles. After the trees
got so large that the ground could be
no longer cultivated the orchard was
left to itself. The trees were in
crusted with masses Of the San Jose
scale, and it was evident that they
would all be dead in year or two.
They were so far gone that it would
never pay to treat them by any proc
ess. The inevitable end of the trees
was to be cut down and buried.
Doubtless the owner in the North
fondly imagined that he had a peach
orchard in the South that was rapidly
growing into fortune.
Let no man imagine that he can fall
upon fortune in this way. II he
wants commercial orchard of any
kind Of fruit he will have to watch
over it, cultivate it and see that in
sect and fungous pests do not devour
1t.
Every neglected orchard is a dis
enlargement to the men who would
plant orchards. No orchard should be
planted unless it Is to be under the
eye of the owner or of some represen-
tative who has enough interest in it to
see that it is properly cared for.

Old Land for Orchards.

1t is not advisable to locate
orchards on new lands. Some of
these lands may be very fertile, but
there are good reasons why they
should not be put at once into fruit.
The temptation to do SO is very great,
as 1t is argued that by so using the
land the new trees will be growing
while the old stumps are rotting. II
1t were possible to cultivate such land
by the use of the spade and the hoe,
one OF the main objections would be
done away with. But hand work is
too expensive to be applied to large
commercial orchard in the first years
of its existence. Horse work is cheap
and must be utilized. That kind OF
labor cannot be utilized on new
ground full Of stumps and roots. If
trees are planted on land that has
been merely cut over, the cultivation
is sure to be neglected. The trees
will not receive the attention they
would have received on land that is
well-cleared, well-pulverized, and that
has been worked by pillow and cult
vator for number of years at least.
Usually too insect pests are more
abundant on new land than on old. If
new land must be used it is better
to cultivate it for two or three years
in some crop that requires thorough
stirring Of the soil. If possible the
last crop before the orchard is set
should be leguminous one, that the
soil may have good supply of nitro
gen.

Bank Barns.

The bank barn is still popular in
the colder sections of the United
States in spite of the fact that it Is
sometimes too damp for the best
health of the farm animals. Where
the land Is hilly there are numerous
opportunities for the building of bank
barns. The objections urged against
bank barns are not valid ones, for
they can be easily provided against.
Some complain that where there Is
q bank barn there must of necessity
be basement and that such a base
ment is always dark, damp and gen.
orally unhealthful. Who says that
such conditions are necessary? 1t re-
quires only little thought to make
the basement as light and cheerful as
any other portion of the barn.
For bank barn a southern slope
should be selected, as this makes it
possible to utilize the sun during near
ly all of the short winter day. If the
slope is a northern one, it will be i'm
possible to get the amount of light
needed and at the same time take full
advantage of the warmth furnished by
the bank.
A bank barn should be provided
with an abundance of doors and win
dows that both light and ventilation
may be easily supplied and that the
basement may be quickly aired out on
warm days.
The bank barn is easy to be kept
warm in winter, and If cement is free
ly used 1t can be kept dry at all
times. In the properly arranged bank
barn the teams can be driven in on a
level and without the necessity of
climbing steep ascent in approach.
ing the barn floor.
There is such thing as having the
basement too deep in the ground, the
surrounding earth coming too far
above the top of the basement. This
makes it very difficult to get sufficient
window room.

Good and Poor Cows.

At the Illinois State Fair just
closed the University Of Illinois had
an exhibit that should have attracted
attention. 1t was Of the two poorest
and the two best cows in the station
herd. The two poorest cows are mon
ey losers and the two best cows are
money makers. Professor Fraser tried
to make the lesson more impressive
by placing on a scaffold over the
heads of the cows, butter tubs repre-
senting the amount of butter each
COW made in year. Over the head Of
each of the two poorest cows was q
sixty-pound tub surmounted by for
ty-pound tub. Over the head OF each
Of the other two COWS were placed
three sixty-pound tubs surmounted by
three forty-pouEd tubs; for the best
cow produced 312 pounds of butter fat
last year, the next best 304 pounds Of
butter fat, one Of the poor cows pro-
duced 121 pounds of butter fat, and
the poorest produced just 100 pounds
of butter fat. The two poorest cows
gave together 221 pounds of butter fat
IN the year ana the TWO pest COWS olo
pounds. The two best ones gave about
three times as much butter fat as did
the two poorest ones, and that on the
same feed and care.
1t is pity that our farmers will not
take such an example to heart. For
butter making the two best cows
were worth ten thousand times more
than the two poorest cows; for the
latter were worth practically nothing.
One of these best cows was Rose.
She had seven lactations in ten years,
counting from her fifth to fifteenth
year of age. Each lactation period is
reckoned from calf to calf and in
cludes the dry times. The yield of
milk and Of butter fat and the lacta-
ton periods are given below:

Lbs. but

These figures are worth studying.
They show that the same amount Of
feed and care may produce profit or
loss. Many a farmer devotes a large
part of his land to the raising Of feed
for cows and then gives it to animals
that are unable to pay for 1t. In such
case it would pay better to leave
the land idle.
The showing made by these four
cows should have attracted much at
tention; but Professor Fraser told
the writer that 1t was generally ignor-
ed. Farmers passed it with only
casual glance and no remark. The
most common expression was, "Oh,
what cute little calf" applied to
newly born bovine in corner stall.

CoWpea Bacteria.

The cowpea bacteria are already
lutte widely distributed in southern
Illinois, especially where this crop has
been grown for several years, but
they are not common in the soils OF
other parts of the state. 1t is doubt
full, however, II 1t is necessary or even
worth while to take the trouble to
tnoculate soil for cowpeas. Some few
tubercles almost invariably develop
on cowpea roots the first year they
are seeded, even where they have
never been grown before, and II seed
ed the second year on the same land
the plants are usually abundantly
provided with root tubercles. Just
why the cowpea bacteria develop SO
rapidly even without special inocula'
ton is not definitely known. 1t may
be that the same bacteria also live
on some other leguminous plant which
is more or less widely distributed over
the state, but it seems more likely
that the bacteria are brought with the
seed. AS a matter of fact, the cowpea
harvest is usually dirty. This Is an
annual plant, and consequently the
crop is grown on recently plowed land
and is sometimes cultivated during
the season. Cowpeas are commonly
harvested with moving machine and
then raked up on the loose ground.
When they are threshed more or
less dirt remains with the seed. Fur
thermore, the seed coats are not in
frequently cracked, thus providing an
excellent place for the lodgment of
particles of soil.
Whether it would be profitable to
inoculate the land for cowpeas would
depend very largely upon the difficulty
or cost Of obtaining the infected ma
terial. II soil thoroughly infected with
the cowpea bacteria can be scattered
over the land at the rate Of about
1000 pounds to the acre at cost OF
81 or less per ton, it might prove
profitable. 1t Is doubtful If light
application of 100 or 200 pounds would
produce any very marked effect in
the yield the first season. After the
soil becomes we'll infected the cow
peas then obtain much nitrogen from
the air, and the yield Of cowpeas is
likely to be largely increased OF
course there is no fixation of atmos-
pheric nitrogen If there are no tuber-
Giles on the roots.
In 1902 several plots Of cowpeas
were seeded on the soil experiment
field at the university. One of these
plots (404 had become thoroughly
infected with the cowpea bacteria, be-
cause of its being so situated that
more or less surface drainage water
flowed over it from an adjacent field
upon which cowpeas had been grown
for three successive years. Another
plot (40S), owing to slightly differ
ent situation, had not become in
fected. The two plots were seeded
in July after a crop of oats had been
removed from the land. Within three
weeks after seeding, numerous root
tubercles could be found on the plants
on the infected plot. Later on, ten
average consecutive plants we're taken
up as completely as possible. and 412
tubercles were found on the roots.
making an average Of more than 40
tubercles to the plant. On plot 40S
only an occasional plant was found in
fected, and such plants would usually
have only single large tubercle on
their roots.-Professor c. G. Hopkins
in Bulletin of Illinois Station.
