TREE PLANTING.

The question of tree planting is al
ways an important one each year all
through the prairie regions of the west
and for that matter, in much of the
east as well, for the whole country has
millions of acres which could better be
devoted to tree culture than to any 9th
er purpose. In many cases a timber
grove may be obtained without plant
ing by simply caring for lot on which
trees are already started. Some of the
finest groves of thrifty timber to be
found in the west were simply brush
lands forty years ago. But, assuming
that one must plant trees in order to
secure grove, what shall he plant?
For the country north Of latitude ~ the
white ash, the Scotch and white pine,
the larch, the black walnut and the soft
maple are among the most desirable
kinds, while south of that latitude the
chestnut and the catalpa will be very
desirable additions to the list. Soft ma
pie is very fast growing and useful
wood, will bear crOWding and is good
tree to plant with other slower growing
kinds, as it can be removed later as
such trees need the room. The cotton
wood will not bear crowding and only
does we'll on rich and moist Soils The
willow should not be ignored entirely,
as no other tree will take it's place on
wet ground One job of tree planting
which is fearfully neglected is that Of
furnishing the grounds of the country
schoolhouse with shade and beauty. A
country schoolhouse set down on a
prairie with not tree in sight is a blot
on the landscape and poor testimonial
to the public spirit of the patrons of the
school. There should be trees around
every farm hOme-shade trees for the
yard and a timber belt, preferably OF
evergreens, for the entire homestead.
Any man with farm of 100 acres can
well afford to have ten acres of his
farm in trees. Trees add much to the
beauty Of the landscape and the value
Of the farm where they are prop
city YET along Cne highways Inoy
should not be in the shape Of a willow
or Usage orange hedge untrimmed, but
be trees planted 100 feet apart and
trimmed up so as not to serve as block
aders of the highways in winter Then
there should be fruit trees furnishing
every farmer all the fruit he needs,
white the creek bottoms, the bare hill
sides too steep to cultivate and the wet
places should each be set to growing
trees Any man can add $1,000 to the
selling value of his farm by the proper
and judicious planting Of trees.

ONION CULTURE.

We have had several inquiries rela-
tive to the growing of an onion crop
how to prepare the SOIL how much seed
to SOW the probable yield per acre and
price. For some years past we have
grown one acre of onions each year on
the farm. The average yield has been
about 600 bushels per acre and the
average price received about 40 cents
per bushel, while the average cost to
produce the crop has been about SIS
We aim TO select piece of land which
has had thorough cultivation and been
kept free from weeds the previous
year, as this greatly simplides the work
Of keeping the onion crop clean The
soil should be rich enough to produce
at least seventy bushels of corn to the
acre. The field is plowed in the fall,
then disked and narrowed fine in the
spring, all trash being removed with
hand rake if necessary. The seed at
the rate of about three pounds per
acre should be soWed just as early as
possible in the spring with hand seed
er in rows about fourteen inches apart
The weeder should be run over the field
the knife cultivator which comes with
the seeding attachment-just as soon
as the onions show above ground, and
this should be repeated from time to
time while the crop is growing, doing
it at least once a week if it is q Cry
time in order to conserve the moisture
Ii the field is clean one hand wedding
will be sufficient, but this must be
thoroughly and carefully done when
the onions are about six inches high.
When the crop is ripe it should be
pulled and thrown into windows and
be allowed to lie there for a matter of
two weeks, when the onions may be
topped and sacked. We have found
the best variety to be the Red Globe.
Even at the price named they are a
profitable crop to grow, and it often
happens that they will bring more
money, and, on the other hand, they
may be entirely unstable, but this
does not often happen. One should
raise enough to make a car load if he
raises any at all, as with a car load a
foreign market can be sought.

THE PERMANENT PASTURE.

All through the west the permanent
pasture becomes almost of necessity a
blue grass pasture, this grass gradually
and surely driving out all other types
of grass and monopolizing the pasture.
While it is a most valuable pasture
grass, coming early and staying late,
it still is often very disappointing dur
ing July and August when the hot, dry
weather comes. We have found that
the best way to use such a pasture is
to feed half of it at once, leaving one
half to grow while the other half is be-
ing fed off. Overstocking the pasture
is common mistake and is more
responsible for bare, weedy and I'M
productive pastures than any other one
thing. Where such pastures have become
Weedy, with poor growth and stand
of blue grass, they may be greatly help
ed by a good disking early in the spring,
a thorough narrowing and the sowing
Of some clover seed, while it should
never be forgotten that there is no place
where the manure of the farm will
bring larger returns than when spread
upon the pasture.

Three years ago a reader of these
notes, a mechanic living in western
city, wrote inquiring where he had
better go to get a cheap farm. He said
that ne had a wife and six children
and had managed to save up about
$1,000, but thought that if he could get
piece Of good cheap land he could
greatly better his chances. He was a
Scandinavian, and, as is always the
case with people Of this nationality, not
only he himself, but his good wife and
the children, were industrious workers.
We recommended him to go and take a
look at the cheap lands of southern
Missouri. We had forgotten all about
the matter until a few days since, when
we received a letter from him from his
home in Missouri expressing his thanks
for being directed to that locality. He
said he now had a good farm Of $50
acres, one half heavy oak timber, the
other half under cultivation, was great
ly pleased with the country and was
doing fine. He said that they had all
worked very hard, but had much to
show for it-fine crops, lots of fruit and
a marked increase in the value of his
land. He sent samples of the corn
grown by him the past season, which
was very fine indeed Other men, being
alike willing to work, can doubtless do
just as well as has done our friend.

Whether an incubator can be made a
profitable thing for the average poultry
raiser depends upon the kind of incu-
bator and the kind of person who
runs it. We have known many a case
where the owner of an incubator really
wanted to kill the maker of it about the
time when the first Matching came off,
and then we have known others who
thought they were the greatest inven-
ton of the age 1t is entirely possible
now to secure incubators which if Civ
en- reasonable care and attention will
give good results. A great advantage
connected with their use is in being
able to raise early chickens, which for
every purpose are worth very much
more than late ones. The man Of the
house rarely takes kindly TO an in
vestment of money In this machine by
his wife, and, if, as sometimes hap
pens, she gets only four chicks from
six dozen eggs most men are mean
enough to never forget it and use the
fact as strong point in almost any
sort Of connubial row.

A reader complains that he cannot
use forty cent corn to produce twenty
cent butter. Guess ne is right when
he feeds it to his cows in the ear.
Corn is mighty poor ration for the
milk COW. 1t may be used to good adj
vantage fed as silage, and we'll cured
corn fodder is all right, but ear corn
should be sold and bran, oats and clover
hay bought with the proceeds to feed
the COW. More dairymen fall down on
this corn proposition than any other
one thing, they reasoning that if
cow has all the corn she can use she
ought to give lots Of milk when she
can no more do it than could the He
brews make bricks without straw in
the olden time. To learn how to feed
a COW is one of the very first essentials
in successful dairying.

We have always followed the plan,
where there was a marked choice in the
doing of different parts of a given piece
of work, of doing the hardest and worst
part first, applying this as a principle
to all the work of life We have al
ways found that it paid, though of
course the natural tendency is to do
the easy things first The hard and the
disagreeable things done and out of
the way, it is always a pleasure to fin
ish up the work. Then the longer the
hard things are put off the harder
they seem to do.

Two lots of range cattle were market
ed this winter in Chicago, each lot of
the same age. One lot brought 1926
per hundredweight and the other S4.75.
The stock had the same range in Dako-
ia, and the difference in price is wholly
explained by the fact that one owner
gave his cattle no feed or care during
the winter and the other cared for and
fed his stock during the period when
the SHOWS covered the native grasses.
This case shows that it pays a man to
be humane.

No cereal is so cosmopolitan as the
wheat plant. 1t does well in Texas
and at Medicine Hat, in Mexico and
Manitoba; it has no limitations of
longitude, but few as to soils and sea
sons, and is more Indifferent to the limi-
tations of varying rainfall than any
other cereal. 1t only demands a virgin
soil, hundred days of growing wealth
er and enough rain to keep it's feet wet
