How the Farmers Lose.

The farmers should devote more Of
their thought and labor to improving
their soils than any one thing on the
farm. The educated farmer can cul.
tivate his fields summer and winter,
growing large crops and yet improv-
ing the fertility of the soil. The Ag-
riculturist has been expounding this
process and urging its readers to
adopt this prolific and enriching sys-
tenn. Every soil tiller could have hairy
vetch and barley now four inches high
on the land where corn or cotton grew
in the summer. but they have neglect
ed, and each acre loses the nitrogen
ard the stock loses the heterogeneous
green feed Oh, how slow we are to see
our own interests!@Southern Agricul-
tIIriSt

FARMER AND PLANTER.
FIGHTING A FARM PEST.
wild OuiOns OF Garlic and How to
Get Rid of the Worst Weed
known to Farmers.

The wild onion (for more properly
garlic) is now the worst weed known
to farmers along the middle Atlantic
coast-irom Pennsylvania to South
Carolina. 1t is especially bad in moist,
thin pasture, land. When this weed is
eaten by mich cows the milk acquires
O most offensive odor, which odor is
In turn communicated to the cream and
butter. The weed, when it occurs in
wheat fields, ruins the wheat for flour.
The wild garlic is fall and winter
growing plant. 1t usually occurs in
punches or patches in grass lands; but
In badly-cultivated lands, and in grain
fields, the plants are more commonly
scattered.
by means of underground offsets or
Gloves" and also by small bulblets
BONE In a bunch at top of stem. In
this country the garlic does not bear
true seeds
The weed Ia usually introduced into
new localities with wheat seed in which
1t is a rather common adulterant. The
underground bulbs are also often dis
tributed along with strawberry and
other fruit plants.
The garlic is very hardy and ag-
gressive weed, and can thrive upon
any soil not too dry. 1t, however, Is
more commonly found upon this soils
which lack potash and lime.
+ When pasture Is badly infected with
garlic 1t should be plowed up in the
fall and narrowed with spring tooth
harrow to bring as many of the root
bulbs to the surface as possible. Re
harrow the land twice a month until
late spring. Then ferthzie the land
heavily with kainit and lime, and sow
thickly with one of the trailing vari-
cites Of cowpea The Conch pea is best
for this purpose. The Unknown" pea
is also good. In September pillow I'M
der the growth of pea-vines and apply
600 to 1000 pounds of fresh water
Stacked lime. (The undersigned will be
glad to furnish to any North Carolina
farmer addresses Of lime companies
who will supply caustic lime at about
S6.25 per ton delivered at nearest rail-
road station.) Sow the lined land in
crimson clover, using 20 pounds OF
cleaned seed, or IS pounds OF seed In
hull Cut the clover for hay the fol-
lowing spring, as soon as the first flow
ers appear. Immediately pillow the land
and keep it clean by means OF the
spring. tooth harrow until 1t Is planted
in some hoed crop. Of which cotton Is
the best. Corn or drilled sorghum
NAV be used. Watch the field carefully,
and IL any scattering garlic plants come
I'D in the rows pull them out by hand.
II this system is faithfully carried out
the worst infested fields can be cleaned
of garlic in two years.
When the weed appears In lawn
which can not be treated as above men,
toned, the best plan is to buy one or
more gallons of commercial sulphuric
acid or crude carbohc acid and apply
a Tablespoonful Of these to the roots
of the garlic plant. A tablespoonful
applied rear the center Of a patch OF
tuft will kill the whole. These chem
icals are dangerous, and must not be
handled by children or. irresponsible
persons.-Gerald Mccarthy, Biologist

A WORD ABOUT THE LEADING
EVENTS OF THE WEEK
Goal Strike On; Situation Mixed

Goal Strike On; Situation Mixed
The result OF the Indianapolis conference
between soft coal operators and represent
atiyes of the miners was a disagreement.
President John Mitchell submitted as the
minimum demand of the miners the sched-
ule of1913. which meant 55j 6 wage in
crease. The operators, acting as body,
refused this. However, some OF the lead
ing operators, notably r. l.. Robbins and
the Pittsburg Coal company. expressed a
willingness 70 sign this schedule, and the
miners agreed 10 sign with all soft coal
men who would accept this schedule, ,inde-
pendent OF others. This means that ABOUT
half the soft coal mines viii continue oper-
alton under this arrangement, while the
others will close until such time as one
side or the other gives in.
Under orders from Mitchell, all the union
anthracite workers suspended work April
lst, except the engine and pump men
necessary to preserve the mines. A con-
fe enee between the hard coal operators
and Mitchelps representatives began In
New York Tsesday. The retailers of coal
in many cities have raised the price from
SOC. 10 Il a ton, on the plea that the stock
must be protected, though there is plenty
on hand.
