KING ROAD DRAG. PLANK.

Struction and maintenance is to get
rid of the water and its bad effects,
Three systems of drainage are needed:
First, tile or subdrainage. Wher-
ever the soil is naturally wet from
ground water a line of four inch tile
should be laid to regular grade longi-
tudinally along the uphill side of the
road under the side ditch at a depth of
three or four feet.
Second, side bitches. A good, big
side ditch, built to a continuous grade
as determined by road level, so that
the water will not stand in it at any
point. should be provided ON each side
of the road. The road level should be
used to make sure that the ditch is
built 10 a grade which will not leave
ponds of water in the bitches after
rains. All surface ponds should be
drained instead of trying to maintain
shallow embankments subject to the
capillary action of water and to de-
structiOn by water and by muskrats.
Third, surface drainage. Proper
surface drainage, to shed the water
be provided by properly crOwning the
road and by then keeping it hard and
smooth with King road drag.
Earth roads will not maintain them
selves in good condition even if prop
erly built, hut require frequent atten-
ton. Without such attention the wa
ter does not shed into side bitches.
They thus become impossible after
heavy storms and when the frost goes
out aud are very rough for a long
while after such bad periods. The
work of maintenance should be direct
ed toward keeping the road smooth
and hard and maintaining or increas-
ing the crown.
The best as well as the cheapest in
strument we have found for this pur-
pose is the King road drag. Plans of
this simple and inexpensive device are
given in accompanying cuts.
After each rain drive up one side of
the wheel track and back on the other
side at least once with the drag in DO

The Potato CroD.

From Orange Judd Farmers report
on the potato crop it appears that the
yield in the states of heavy production
is much smaller than last season and
the crop, as whole, less than for a
number of years. Wisconsin and
Michigan have been hardests hit by
blight and rot. Conditions farther
east are relatively more favorable.
New York has reasonably good crop.
The quantity is short in Maine, but
the quality exceptionally fine. The
shortage is very largely in the north
west, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa and
Minnesota having scant 6O,OOO,O0O
bushels against S7,OO0,OOO last year.
Prices quoted the country over the
second week in October range from as
low as q cents per bushel to 20 cents.
The new crop is moving rapidly, yet
many growers show a disposition to
hold for better prices. Potatoes of
fine quality are being very freely ship
ped out from the Aroostook (Me) dis
trict at 40 to 80 cents. Sixty to 20
cents has been paid in Oneida coun-
ty, ~ X, where rot has reduced the
crop.

LATE FALL SPRAYING.
d.. John Is. Smith of New Jersey
Tells of New Methods.

d.. John Is. Smith of New Jersey
Tells of New Methods.
In consideration of experiments and
observations that have been made in
connection with San Jose scale DR..
John B. Smith of the New Jersey agri-
cultural station finds that the follow
ing practice seems to be indicated:
As soon after Oct. 10 as possible,
when the crop is off, when the foliage
has begun to thin out and drop and
while the scale is yet active, apply that
einsocticide with which you are most ia
miliar at full winter strength and as
thoroughly as possible. An exception
must be made of whale oil soap, which
should not be applied stronger than
one pound in one gallon of water if at
all.
1t is obvious that the date given can
not be arbitrarily adopted in all parts
of the state in all seasons or even for
all trees. In the hilly north frosts
cause the foliage to fall much earlier
than in the warm, sandy plains of the
south, and the peach is usually trim
med out before the apple foliage be-
gins to drop to any considerable ex-
tent SO long as the sap circulates the
scale continues active, and so long as
there is foliage it is not too late to
spray.
Mineral oils Preferred.
Begin, then, as soon after The middle
of October as possible on those trees
that then mature ana begin to drop
their foliage. When that period of ma
turity has arrived the functions Of the
leaf have been accomplished, and any
scalding or scorching does not affect
the tree itself 1t is better to wait un-
til the leaves are partly off to facilitate
getting at all points on the twigs and
branches, but little foliage is really
an advantage, because it catches spray
that would otherwise go through the
bare wood, and some of the drip will
reach the tips and branches If the in
festatiOn is very bad it will be better
to duplicate the application two week:
later if oil was used or in the spring il
one of the. lime and sulphur combina
tions was employed. have suggested
using that insecticide with which tn,
grower is most familiar, but PERSONAL!

By r. BI:NJAMIN, Jr., Washington.


By r. BENJAMIN, Jr., Washington.
As estimated for Oct. 1 by the bu-
reau of statistics the condition of corn
shO Eed a decline of 3 of a point, the
figures being S92 as compared with
S9.J last month, $50 on Oct 1, 1904,
sos at the corresponding date in 1903
and a ten year average of S0.2.
The preliminary estimate of the aver
age yield per acre of spring wheat is
14.7 bushels (S.S centals), subject to re-
vision when the final estimate is made
in December. The average quality of
spring wheat is 80 as compared with
75.7 in 1904 and SJ.5 in 1903.
Movement of Grain.
Reports received by the department
of commerce and labor Indicate that
the total grain receipts at the ports Of
Boston, New York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore during August showed a
gain of nearly 100000 bushels If
compared with similar arrivals in 1904.
On the other hand, the inbound cereal
movement at New Orleans as we'll as
at San Francisco and Tacoma present
ed heavy losses by like comparisons.
While Galveston's inbound grain move
ment during August was heavily in
excess of that for a corresponding
month in the preceding year, it should
be understood that during the latter
period the movement was exceptionally
small
Iowa's Corn.
Iowa's corn crop appears to be arous-
ing dissension among the authorities
who are estimating it. Mr. Sage, the
head of the crop reporting service for
the state, is credited with forecasting
a bumper crop, while Mr.. Cowine, the
reporter for the department of agri-
culture, makes a far less optimistic es-
timate-aot less than 35O,OOO,OOO BUSH
els, says Mr.. Sage; probably under
300,O00,CO0, declares Mr.. Cowine.
John COwne is a well known practi-
cal LOwil farmer. He is also q men,
Der of the board having control of all
state institutions and is in charge of
the nearly 10000 acres of state land
farmed at such institutions. ]. r.
Sage, though not in active farm life,
has been connected with the Iowa crop
and weather service for fifteen years
past. Each secures information through
farmer correspondents all over the
state.
Professor Holden, so well known in
connection with the improvement of
corn, has called attention to the fact
that failure to give due weight to the
damage done by the new pest in the
state-the corn root worm-would tend
to a too generous estimate.
A Special Crop Industry.
Among striking special crop develop
ments is that of asparagus in Califor.
mia in the last ten years. Its district

ductiOn on these figures, but after 0e-
Quoting this it leaves a difference Of

was paid at Tampa. No explanation
