Kingsbury County independent. (DeSmet, Kingsbury County, S.D.) 1894-1929, 1909-09-24

PRESIDENT TAFT appeals to the
public to have confidence in the
sincerity of Senator Aldrich's pro-
fessed desire to make reall y scientific
reconstruction of the currency system.
For our part We have every confidence
that Aldrich is sincere in his attempt
to offer a scientific reconstruction
plan. But the question arises as to
who will be benefited by this scien-
tific reconstruction. Viewed in the
light of the recent tariff legislation
proposed by the trust senator, the
more scientific the reconstruction of
the currency system proposed by
Aldrich, the less the people will be
benefited The president is doubt
less sincere in asking for this con-
fdence, but the tariff legislation is
too fresh in the minds of the people
to allow Of such confidence.

IT is said that President Taft has
appointed men on the tariff commits,
sion who believe in revision, and that
they are men who will honestly in
vestigate the cost Of manufacture at
home and abroad. Taft is for real
revision and it is predicted that when
the information secured is sent to
congress with the presidents recon-
mendations a war between the White
House and congress will result. If
this should prove to be true, it will
he so much the worse for congress.

WARNING TO THRESHERS.

The attention of the Commissioner
of Insurance has been called to the
alleged fact that many threshers are
violating the law under which every
person owning or operating steam
threshers are required to take out
either a bond or an indemnif wing
insurance policy to the amount of
$4,000 to secure the farmers for
whom they thrash against loss occa-
stoned from fires set from the ma
chimes.
Before farmers allow threshers to
begin they should inquire whether
the thresher has taken out bond or
policy; and, if he has not, to at once
report to this department. My rea-
son for asking this will be seen from
reading the last section of the law,
which reads as follows, to-wit:

the green food problem is most vex-

pheasant fancier. solved the problem
when he invented grass runs. writes
DIR. A. II. Phelps in Orange Judd
Farmer. These are frames four feet
wide, 13 feet long. made with hem
lock boards six inches wide. standing
upon edge. the top being covered with
one-incb- mesh chicken wire. Beneath
this frame crimson clover. oats. wheat
and rye are sown.
The wire. which is six inches above
the ground. protects the young, grow
ing plants until they pass through
the wire, when the fowls begin pick

chemical. The seedlings are trans
planted to flats and then to cold
frames. though they are not so rigor
ously hardened as cabbage plants. A
full ton of high grade fertilizer. run
ming about six per cent of nitrogen.
eight of phosphoric acid. and ten OF
potash, is applied to each acre. The
fertilizer should be put on just before
the plants are set, about the middle oil
May. The distances are SO inches be-
tween rows. and seven inches In the
row. Great care should be taken to
avoid setting the plants too deep. as
the crown is partly covered and the
plant seriously stunted. usually ruined.
A row planted by a careless worker
is n conspicuous monument to his
memory throughout the season.
The water problem is very serious
matter, and especially In growing
celery. There is hardly a year when
drought does not curtail the crop. lr
rigation is the only remedy. Leaf
spot or celery blight Is the most ser
ious pest. II can be held in check by
faithful applications OF Bordeaux mix
ture.
Blanching celery in hot waether Is
not so easily accomplished as in tn.
fall. Soil at this season affords most
favorable conditions for rust. Instead
OF this method. l2-inch boards are
used. Only good lumber Is purchased.
cleats are nailed on to prevent split
ting. and the boards are as well cared
for as hotbed sash, far better than
many gardener cares for them.
, Each board does service six to seven
times in season. When the plants
are I2 inches high. the boards are
set beside them and fastened in place
with clamps made from n piece Of
heavy wire about 10 inches long. and
bent to a little less than n right angle
two inches from each end. Pairs Of
rows are selected at intervals over the
field for the first blanching. In this
way wagon-ways are opened and labor
Is saved in moving the boards from
row to row. The process requires
from 10 days to two weeks. according
to weather conditions. When ready

spades and stripped of outside leaves

Celery may be grown on any soil
from sand to clay. provided other con-
ditions are made right. Success Is
largely a matter of fertility and mois-
ture. Fertility is maintained by the
use of cover crops. mine manure, and
commercial fertilizers. writes Paul
Work in Rural New Yorker. Crimson
clover and rye are the standard hum
us-making crops. with the latter pre-
ferred. The clover is of value as a
nitrogen gatherer. but unless 1t can be
sown earlier than is possible on high
priced and intensively farmed land.
the gain does not cover the extra cost
of seed. Rye has the advantage of a
greater bulk of humus and an assured
stand.
Seed for the early crop should be
sown in fats about March I. Earlier
sowings show a marked tendency to
run to seed. and there is little advant-
age in marketing before August l..
