Earmers Snrinkle Corn.

Lebanon. Pa, July l4.-Some Of the
farmers OF this section are getting the
better of the prolonged drought by
pulning wa-er from the streams that
are still running through long lines OF
hose and sprinkling their corn fields
in an effort to save them from total
destruction.
This method OF fighting the dry spell
Is not as practicable as it might be
but il works ont well. especially In the
smaller fields and those lying near a
creek or even a rivulet Gasoline en-
gines are used. and in several In
stances old worn lengths Of hose have
been purchased from small boroughs
for the purpose.
Crops are burning up in Lebanon

TOUGH IN PRACTICE.

Many orchardists and nurserymen
OF experience still recommend the
planting of orchard trees about twice
as thick as the final stand desired for
the reason that In the first few years
the trees will be so small that they
will be none too thick, while later,
when they begin TO touch limbs, every
other tree may be cut out. This plan
may be all right, but 1t works out bet
ter on paper than IL does in practice,
the average orchard owner not having
the heart TO lay an AK at the root %
thrifty trees which are possibly better
than those adjoining, but destined to be
spared. The other alternative is to set
the trees as close as one wishes them
TO stand permanently and then give
them the care which will enable them
10 withstand the attacks Of their many
enemies. To ascertain the number OF
square feet which fruit trees OF differ.
ent kinds should have II is well TO take
note OF the area actually covered by
mature trees Of the variety to be
planted. In addition to this, room
should be allowed between every other
row for the passage OF teams I'm spray
lug and harvesting operations. The
trees should be set closer together In
the rows running north and south IL
order that they may have the protec.
ton from the midwinter sun.
