GRASS IN THE ORCHARD.
A Discussion as to the Benefit of the
System.

There are those that believe In
| keeping the orchard covered with
| grass and there are those that believe
| In the absolute adjustment Of grass
from the orchard. The people that be.
lieyc in keeping the orchard erased
say that II saves great deal of labor
TO keep the land covered with sod and
that the fruit when 1t falls on the
ground does not become soiled. The
sentimental side of Orcharding fayors
the grassy carpet under the trees for
who could have sentiment toward
the orchard area kept so thoroughly
worked that there would be Il dust
mulch over Il in dry time and
mud carpet over II in wet tine? So
far, the experiments have seemed to
show very much in favor Of clean cul-
ture Of the orchard area as against
the grass covering.
In England some orChardists under
direction of an experiment station
have begun the investigation OF the
effects OF a half covering Of grass.

land plan of digging mp the ground
for n distance of about six feet from
each tree was followed In some Of
the experiments this circle Of grass
came to within five and a half feet OF
the trees. II was a surprise TO the eS-
pcrimcnters that the fruit on the
orchards so treated was double that
on the trees not so treated. Fruit
which normally was green strcaked
with red became deep red in color
and in storage kept much better than
It had kept before. One variety kept

The same cXperimentcrs, says
Farmers Review, in some previous
tests had shown that the trees and
fruit were greatly injured by having
the whole orchard area In grass, and
they were greatly surprised to find
that the results Of partial covering
OF grass was beneficial. Il was shown
by investigation that little of the roots
of the trees entered the grassy area,

material that they did not ind in the

The grass ground must have conveyed
to the trees something that had the
power to modify the whole character
OF the crop. This points strongly to
the view that the action of the grass
is due to some active poison
This is Il new phase Of the subject
that should have further study on
both sides of the Atlantic. II requires
thousands of experiments to thorough
ly demonstrate a fact of this kind and
we caution our readers against leap
ing to the conclusion that the general
quality of our apples can be greatly
improved by at once partially grassing
over the orchards. A single series OF
experiments should not be taken as
m index of what is profitable, for
there are many unknown quantities
entering into such experiments.

Experiments in WESTERN New York
have shown that apple trees of the

PARTIAL HOME RULE
Governments Irish Bill Appears
in British Parliament.
LOCAL. COUNCIL AUTHORIZED
Proposed Body Will Meet at Dublin
and Will Have Control of a Num-
Der of Departments.

London, May S.-The government
has presented its long awaited irish
bill to the house of IN and the
country. This blu is designed TO meet
the demands for Irish home rule. 1t
was presented by the chief secretary
for Ireland, Mr.. Birrell, to a crowded
house. Prior to the appearance of this
measure it was popularity termed a
"devolution BILL" but now it is referred
to as the Irish bill"
Compared with the home rule bills
of 1885 and 1906 the measure confers
little self-government upon Ireland,
merely giving to the council control
Of the eight departments now managed
by government boards. The council
is supposed to be appointed by the
crown and while the lord lieutenant
of Ireland is given power to nullify its
measures the crown retains control of
five of the eight departments, includ-
ing the constabulary. The control Of
this branch always has been a thorn
in the flesh of the Irish people.
To prevent the first reading of the
bill being deferred and while Walter
Hume Long was still speaking. Mr..
Birrell moved the closure. Then amid
great uproar and protests and shouts
of gag" the closure was carried by
AT votes to 121 and the bill passed
its first reading by 416 votes to 121.
