Atlanta Nov 13.-Although American

loss Of a life and without an intury %
more than the slightest importance
George Robertson. Lewis Strang. y L.

declared that the track Is probably the

in the ssphaltum used in holding the

the victory of Disbrow. as he has had
great deal OF III luck IN being compelled to
withdraw from races in which he was en-
tered
Up to the 1921 mile George Robertson, at
the wheel of a Fiat go" seemed a certain
winner. He was three laps ahead Of all
the other cars when he broke a chain, and
before he could resume he had lost four
teen miles. Disbrow had been following
closely and assumed the lead. with Charles
Basic in second position
When Robertson resumed he quickly

OF driving failed IN the time remaining 70
overcome Disbrow's lead, although Robert
son drove from thirteen 70 fifteen seconds
a mile faster than the Rainier man. Al
though he was four laps behind Disbrow
when he had repaired his chain. he was
only two I'm the rear when the winner
crossed the wire.

WORK IN THE POULTRY YARD

Do not forget that the natural food
of chickens is grain and meat They
will get their meat in bugs and worms
If they have the opportunity.
More young chickens die from over
providing in breeders and coops at
night than from any other cause.
Left without proper shelter, we have
seen as many as 100 young chicks piled
on top Of one another in fence corner
at night, with from five to fifteen dead
pnes in the morning.
If the young chicks show signs of
gapes, change them to other grounds at
once.
Milk should always be fed in metal
pans that can be washed and scalded
afterward.
Doubtless your experience last spring
has convinced you that the brooder
beats the hen every time, both in the
saving of temper and the production
Of chicks.
The lazy, good-natured hen does not
make as good a mother as cranky
lighter, provided the latter is not sc
nervous as to keep running about All
The time.

WHEN TO CUT GRASS.

AS to the best time for cutting grass.
It does not pay to be in too big a
hurry. When the grass is young and
tender and seemingly succulent in the
fresh state it Is harder to cure, dries
and shrinks more, and has not nearly
:i,e food value of the more mature
crop.
While the opposite extreme should
be avoided, cutting before the seed
is so ripe as to scatter, there is much
more nourishment in the matured stalk,
and one farmer who was compliment
I'd for bringing his cattle through the
winter on a minimum amount of grain
and yet keeping them in good flesh, at
tributes his success, largely to this
fact.
Haste makes waste when the crop is
hurried to the barn not fully cured
Hay cut green requires more thorough
drying than that almost overripe.
II the season is wet one hay can
be mown and taken in the same day
when pleasant day comes, even with
out tedder. If manures-

LEAF SPOT AND BLACK ROT

Leaf spot is the most destructive
disease attacking the leaves and stems
OF tomatoes, and it is very hard to
control. Small, grayish- brown angu-
lar spots, containing minute black
fruiting bodies, appear upon the leaves
and stems. The lower ones are first
attacked and the disease spreads up
ward, often almost defoliating the
plants. Many growers report that this
disease is worst on high, dry, gravelly
or sandy soils. 1t is carried over the
winter in diseased stems and leaves.
Treatment: Spray with Bordeaux
week after transplanting and repeat
at intervals of ten days or two weeks.
1t is often advisable to stake and tie
up the plants for greater convenience
in spraying. Pinching off the lower
leaves which touch the ground when
the plants are set out is also recon-
mended. The diseased tops should be
raked up and burned.
Black rot is a fungus which attacks
the stems, leaves and fruit of the to-
mato. 1t is by the destruction of the
fruit. however, that it causes the most
serious loss. Roundish black velvety

ONE MANS ORCHARD EXPERIENCE

For the benefit of young farmers who
are going to plant and raise an apple
orchard ! will give you a few points.
Don't cultivate and stimulate the
growth Of young trees too much. Let
them grow slowly and NATURALLY, like
a forest tree.
My reasons for this advice are: A
few years ago a neighbor of mine set
out an apple orchard and he cultivated
some sowed crops between the rows all
the time.
He washed the trunks of the trees
with weak I've and old soapsuds
through April, May and June, and
those trees grew to beat the band.
1t was the general talk all over the
settlement what a fine orchard old
man Riley had.
| Well, here comes the results Of such
good treatment. When the orchard
/ began to bear the trees began to die
blighted to death.
Forty per cent of them are dead now
and the others are going to follow.
Now don't you see the crowding of
the growth of young trees won't do?
am rs years old and have learned
by observation that the thing can be
overdone.
The crowding Of the growth makes
the wood too soft. Left to grow slowI,
they will live longer.-J. j. Osborn

toner would treat locally, possibly ad-
wise different shoes, order tonic balls
or condition powders and a few days
rest. The latter would benefit mostly
and give temporary relief.
Now supposing there were irregulari-
ties of the teeth, as is usual with all
young horses, the first treatment should
be to get them into perfect order, so
as to promote mastication and good
digestion to enable proper assimilation
of the nutritive qualities of the food,
and thus insure increased strength and
condition and remove the original
cause Of the weakness.
1t may seem equally absurd to some
of my readers to assert that operating
