Fertilizer TALK.
First Understand Requirements Of
Your Crops.

First Understand Requirements of
Your Crops.
OF course we must use fertilizers to
a certain extent, but the ignorant use
of fertilizers has been the ruin of many
The most expensive fertilizer that is
used to any extent is nitrate of soda,
states a writer in Country Gentleman.
The point l wish to emphasize is--don't
use fertilizers indiscriminately. A short
time ago farmer wanted to put some
fertilizer on his orchard. Instead of
studying the matter up and understand
ing the needs of his trees he bought a
high grade fertilizer, in which the prin-
cipal ingredient was nitrate of Soda
Now, while nitrate of soda no doubt is
excellent for many crops in his case he
could have plowed under crop of clo-
yer and purchased potash and phos-
phoric acid in some form for cOnsid
erably lower cost.
Again, farmer will buy an all
round fertilizer because it is cheap.
Another will buy high grade mixed
fertilizer and pay big price for it be-
cause he doesn't believe in ''these cheap
fertilizers" Don't forget that the clo-
vers, peas and other legumes will sup.
ply not only all the nitrogen necessary
for your crops, but also humus. Many
a wise farmer supplies all the fertility
for his crops by using barnyard ma
nure and blowing under legumes-clo
vers, cowpeas, etc. Think these things
over before you buy your fertilizers this
year. The point am trying to call at
tention to is the foolishness of buying
fertilizer without understanding the
needs of your crops.
Buy a good book on fertilizers and
study up the subject and know what
you are doing.

lage or town fire protection, says the
Municipal Journal and Engineer. Ac-
cording to the source of water supply
plants must vary, but in any event
there should be storage tanks of wood
or concrete near the points Of greatest
risk. The bottoms of these tanks
should not be more than twenty feet
from the level of the street, and the
manhole should be large enough to
permit cleaning. AS to apparatus,
hook and ladder truck carrying cOu-
pie of wall ladders extending from
twenty-six to thirty feet, 100 pals and
two hand fire extinguishers are of the
first Importance. A small two cylin-
der fifty gallon chemical extinguisher,
with drop bottom for dumping acid, is
capable Of putting out so per cent Of
all the fires that will occur. OF en-
gines for pumping water the steam fire
engine takes the lead, but the expense
of maintenance of gasoline engine
is less, and it is accordingly recon-
mended. The use of hose wagon Is
recommended because quicker work
tan be done, and it keeps the hose In
better condition than when wound on
reel. The personnel of the fire de-
partment should not be neglected, and
the chief should not only be an ex-
perienced man, but should be so ia
vorably known that his men will have
confidence in him and carry out his
orders with alacrity.

eighths inch larger than bolt to allow
for spread at bottom. Have a hook
with eye for bolt to pass through for
hanging pulley. This hook should be
of three-fourths inch iron and eight
inches long. The bolt should also be
of the same length. The stretcher may
be made of either chain or rods twen-
ty inches in length and should have
three inch ring in center for fastening
rope. The end links should be IL
by inches to admit of good, strong
stretcher stick and have good, roomy
hooks in these links so they will read
lily hook over beef hook. This stretch
er is far superior to the ordinary stick
used as the load on one side may be
removed with no chance Of the other
part getting on the ground. When the
beef is raised high enough for remoy-
ing entrails, simply drop one Of the
turning sticks between the other turn
ing stick and the rope and one upright,
and there it will stay. For hanging
hogs with this outfit we have gambrels
with an eye in the middle and hooks in
the ends and hang one ON either hook
of the stretcher. With an extra
stretcher with open eyes to hook in top
ring four hogs may be nicely handled.

Concerning Soil Moisture.

So far as cultivation is concerned.
there are three principal steps in the
conservation of soil moisture:
The soil must be loosened to con-
siderable depth in order to prepare a
reservoir to receive the rain and carry
the water downward into the soil. This
may be accomplished by deep blowing,
by listing or by disking unplowed lands.
The water which is carried down into
the subs0il must be brought back again
into the surface soil, where the seed is
terminating and the young roots are
growing, and to accomplish this a good
connection must be made between the
furrow slice and the subsoil, and this
is the purpose of the use of the subsur-
face packer Immediately after blowing.
Finally, in order that the water which
is drawn up again toward the surface
may not reach the air and be wasted
by evaporation. the upper two or three
inches of the soil must be kept mellow
in the form of soil mulch, and this is ac-
complished in the growing of crops by
frequent cultivation, which Is not so
practicable with wheat as with corn
and similar crops. However, the har-
row may often be successfully used in
preserving the soil mulch in the wheat
field.-A. NJ Teneyck in Kansas Farm

PEACH CULTURE.
Possibilities of New England In This
Line.


Line.
Adm A. Hixon, secretary of the
Worcester County Horticultural socie-
ty, recently delivered lecture before
the Massachusetts Horticultural socie-
ty on the subject of "T'he Possibilities
of Peach Growing In New England"
q theme of much Importance to Or
chardists. Some of the principal points
as reported in American Cultivator are
here given:
A man starting peach growing would
do well to notice what is being done
in his neighborhood and be governed
somewhat by local growers as to varie-
ties to grow. | believe in the possibili-
ties of New England in many things,
especially peach growing. l think these
men who are putting so much time and
money into the production Of milk
would find it much more profitable and
enjoy life much better if they devoted
their time and energy to peach grow
ing.
Location to Select.
An important consideration In peach
culture on large scale is the selection
of q location, one not affected by late
frost in the spring or early frost in the
fall, one where the buds will be the
least likely to start early in the spring.
The influence of climatic and atmos-
pheric conditions has much to dc
with all vegetable growth, especially
peaches. Extreme cold is not as bad
as extreme changes especially when
wet. Sometimes large ponds or rivers
have beneficial effect as well as ele-
vations near the salt water. In all
cases plant the trees on elevated
ground, with northerly or westerly
slope.
Soil For the Peach.
| For soil the peach will adapt itself to
almost any kind. The best soil is a
sandy loan rich in vegetable matter
1t will do remarkably well on stony
soils. Very rich soils produce too much
wood. The peach does well on rocky
or ledgy side hills that are almost
worthless for anything else Land witt
much vegetable growth on it would bt

Peas need potash and phosphoric acid.
These elements are essential to best
results with the pea, but in some in
stances nitrogen must be applied to
start the crop in good shape. Farm
ward manure is very suitable when it
can be obtained. On many soils land
plaster will very much stimulate the
growth of peas. 1t Is possible to en-
rich the ground too much to get a
good crop of peas, as when there is
a rank growth the vines fall down be-
fore the bloom or head appears-New
