Tree. that Are a Mystery.

California has one tree which Is the
personification Of mystery. Found no
where else in the world, it had mys-
terious origin and thrives in a region
of mystery.
The Mojava yucca is vegetable
freak, which has developed, into a spe
cies. 1t has the characteristics Of sew.
eral plants, to which no Relationship
can be traced.
1t is an endogen, yet its bark shows
concentrfc rings such as characterize
the exogenous stems. 1t lives ant
thrives In great numbers in a regioI
early devoid of vegetation, in lane
of heat and thirst and barrenness.
Another tree In California which ha
peculiar personality is the creepini
oak of Monterey.
Nowhere in the vegetable kingdom
can be found so true a representative
of monopoly. This tree Is of gnarl
growth, its limbs, like those of tn
sycamore, bending and twisting IN al
directions.
Wherever branch touches the cart
it takes root and becomes, as it were
another trunk, though still branch o
the main stem, drawing nourishmen
both from the parent stem and frol
the new source. In this manner th
tree is spread till 1t has taken posses
sion of five acres Of ground and it
still advancing.

Is fed to milking cows, directly there
is danger of its odor filling the sta

can to some extent be avoided by keep

Where lumber is cheap and stone high,
wooden silos are generally built.
Where stone or brick can be obtained

preference. Concrete silos are the most

Fighting Weeds,

If the labor annually bestowed in the
endeavor to eradicate weeds could be
applied at the proper times not only
would the nuisance be removed, but
the labor lessened. In the case of
weeds the slightest amount of labor
saved in omitting to kill them when 1t
should be done entails greater labor at
other times. Nor Is all labor on weeds
lost. During the eradication or de-
struction of weeds the regular crops
may be cultivated and the land put in
better condition. One of the greatest
mistakes is in not destroying the weeds
when they first appear. 1t will require
less labor to destroy hundred weeds
when they are young than to kill o
single plant after it has made consid
erable growth, to say nothing Of the
fact that every weed that reaches ma
turity and produces seeds leaves great
er work to be done afterward. Al
though farmers are busiest In spring
yet by properly preparing the land fO
the intended crop they gain time. Fo
a year or two the farmer may find |
difficult work combating weeds, bu
the time so devoted will be regaine,
folrfold in after years. Weeds cal
best be destroyed when rotation |
used, and the ground should be plowe
for corn early enough in the spring t
| % @ha nf Cna1s
This sprouting of the weed seeds Is tn
most important part of the process, an
the farmer should be willing to pei
form any amount of labor If he ca
sprout them at time when they wi
not interfere with a growing crop.

Experiences with Manure spreader.

Experience, Win SpTcstucTs
My experience with the manure
spreader teaches me that the modern
method of applying manure to land is
far in advance of the old practice, says
a writer in Farm and Flreside. In ap-
plying manure with the spreader it Is
put on uniformly, and all parts of the
field are equally benefited. When the
manure was dumped in piles, 1t fire.
quently happened that the work Of
spreading was postponed for some
time, and the result was that much Of
the fertilizing value Of the manure
leached out or was lost through fer
mentation. The manure spreader not
only saves the plant food elements of
| the manure, but also saves time and
labor, as the work Is all done at one
time. 1t does two very important
things and does them well-it thor
oughly fines the manure and dlstrib
utes it evenly.
