Harvesting Fodder Corn.

Fodder corn, when sown In drills,
should be harvested with a corn bind
or, but can be harvested quite success
fully with an open elevator grain bind
er, writes a correspondent OF Orange
Judd Farmer. The bundles should be
OF medium size. Let them lie on the
ground for day or two to sun cure
They Will then be only half as heavy
as they were when cut. which means
only half as much work when shock.
ing
The shocks should be big, thirty-hve
TO fifty bundles per shock. Set the
bundles quite perpendicular, I'LL up all
holes. have the outside row particu-
larly tight and make the whole shock
as nearly symmetrical as possible
Draw the tops tightly together with a
rope having hook or pulley attached
20 one end and tie with binder twine
In this condition II will cure well, The
shock will withstand any amount OF
wind and rain and may be left In the
field until needed IN the feed racks.

AS soon as colt will eat grain feed

meal fed once day will make a great
Improvement In the appearance Of the
colt. AS the colt grows increase the
feed. The feed won't hurt him. and
the more he Is fed the quicker he will
become horse. Many persons think
that because n colt Is little he requires
a small ration. but these same people
always kick about their colts being
runty and small. while their neighbor,
who gives his colt plenty OF feed. has
big boned colts. with good square

II Is not saving OF grain TO cut
down on the feed OF colts. because II
takes more than the feed saved 20

DislSing after harvest is now being
recommended by men of study and ex-
perience as an important preliminary
treatment OF wheat land. The advan-
tages OF this practice can be readily
understood when we remember that

weeds and In good condition 10 plow
Soon after harvest and before IL can all

a wet spell, the weeds grow and inter

they take away moisture which should
be saved for the succeeding crop. II,
Oh the other hand. there is drought In

Saving Young Trees.

In the summer time the young trees
suffer most from the droughts. The
trees grow lively in the early spring
when rains are frequent; then when
the heated summer months come and
the rains cease the trees lack moisture
and become stunted or perish. In I'M
irrigated countries the best way TO pre-
serve the life OF the tree In dry times
Is by q mulch. II may be OF straw or
old refuse hay. Even weeds that have
been mown about the place make
very good mulch. Pile the mulch thick
about the tree as soon as the weather
turns OF dry. The moisture VIII be
maintained and the tree Will not
perish.
