Economics of the Poultry Yard

How can you let all this manure
go to Waste?" asked an enthuastc
gardener of a farmers wife whose
poultry house was full of several
years accumulation of droppings.
Think of the beautiful roses, peo-
MES, gladiOli and other perrenials
which are staryin5 for what is going
10 Va ste here
1t is fact that we do not value
hen manure on the farm as we should
as poultry manure is especially vau-
able to the garden, and even a deli
cate woman can so care for it as to
give the best results as a fertilizer to
the benefit of the fowls and flowers
as well. She need not exclaim, as did
one well-to-do lady gardener, "All |
want for birthday present is load
of well rotted MANURE but may
have a compost heap with feed for
flowers and plants in abundance.
" SlCli TIC DtdD uldhC al VI
loan on a well drained lot, and throw
in this the droppings from the poul-
try yard, carcasses of dead chickens,
any refuse animal or vegetable mat
ter, covering such additions with
loan. Wash day suds should be
thrown over the mass each week.
Two heaps should be in secluded
places on every farm. 1t takes about
a year for a heap to be well ripened'
and no new substance should be
thrown on a ripened heap. Before US
ing shovel the mass thoroughly from
top to bottom. Sufficient loan must
always be thrown over the dropplngs
to absorb the odors and retain the
fertilizing elements. Fresh droppingS
should never be used about planlS
or flowers.

Second Choice Voting

Olympia, Wash -Although the su-
preme court said in the second choice
senatorial decision the form of bal
lot there given follows literally the
provisions of the section preceding
it," the judges had in mind solely the
senatorial matter, for, as a matter of
fact, the form of ballot provided in
the primary law omits most of the
important provisions. Because of the
fact that second choice provision is
something new to the voters and that
a mistake such as failure to vote for
both choices renders the entire vote
void, the legislature in the written
portion of the law in the section i'm
mediately preceding the ballot form
declared that on the ballot where
there are two choices should be dis
tinctly printed the following direc-
tions to the voter. ITO vote for a
person for first choice mark a cross
(N) in the first square at the right
OF the name of the person for whom
you desire to vote; to vote for a per-
son for second choice mark a cross
tN) in the second square after rhe
name of the person for whom you de-
sire to vote"
The sample ballot shown in the
law simply says; ITO vote for a per-
son make cross (X) in The square
at the right of the name of the per-
on for whom you desire to vote
If such form We're used and a voter
follows this direction and marks a
cross to the right in both the first
and second choice columns for one
person the vote is void and similar.
ly is it void if he fails to indicate
both first and second choice.

The Apple and How to Grow 1t,

Farmers Bulletin No. 113, u. S.
Department of agriculture is entitled
The Apple and How to Grow It
G. B. Bracket, pomologist, Bureau of
Plant Industry, the writer of this
bulletin, closes it with the following
summary:
/. Gentle eastern or northeastern
slope, as a rule, is the most desirable
for an orchard site, but this may vary
in different sections.
2. Soils such as are found in tim
Der regions should afford the best re-
suits, but outside of such districts
clayey loans having a free surface
and subsoil drainage are best.
3. Well rotted barnyard manure is
the most valuable for apple orchards
The next best fertilizer is crops of red
clover grown among the trees and al
lowed to fall and rot on the ground
or turned under and the ground re-
seeded.
quired to obtain the best results in
the orchard, and when needing fer
tility the land should be properly ma
nured before blowing.
5. Trees are more safely set in
early spring. They should be strong,
vigorous, one or two-year Odds, having
we'll developed root system and, at
the time of setting, their tops should
be cut back to the height at which the
main branches for the future top are
to be formed. All broken and mutt
lated roots should be cut off. For
easy planting, open a deep furrow
with a two-hOrse pillow along the line
where the rows are to be made, and
cross check at the distance apart at
which the trees are to stand. At the
crosses level off the ground at the
bottom of the furrow to receive the
tree with its roots in the natural po-
sition, fill in the dirt among them and
tramp down, leaning the tree slight
ly to the southeast
6. Thorough tillage with a cultiva-
tor during the growing season and
blowing the land each spring, turning
it each time toward the trees, are
recommended
7. Prune each year in the early
spring before the growth starts, re-
moving all cross branches and thin
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1910-09-02

planting is best for cherry trees. Sc
cure the stock in the fall, carefully
heel in near to where it is to be plant
ed, cover the tops if necessary, and
plant as soon as the soil can be
properly worked in the spring.
Dig the holes wide enough so that
the roots will go in without crowding
and deep enough so that the trans
planted tree will stand from one to
two inches deeper than it formerly
stood in the nursery. Prune back all
bruised or broken roots with sharp
pruner or knife, cutting in such a
manner as to have the cut surfaces
rest on the bottom of the hole. Lean
the top slightly toward the south or
southwest if the prevailing winds
come from that direction; otherwise
plant straight, or at least never lean
the tree away from the two o'clock
sun or there will be danger of sun
scald. Fill the hole from one-third to
one-half full of moist, rich soil, or at
least cover the roots and tramp it un-
til firm. Fill remainder of the hole
With loose earth, tramp lightly, and
leave the top smooth and level if
planting in the spring, but slightly
high If planting in the fall. If water is
used at all in transplanting of trees,
it should be applied to the holes the
day before planting and permitted to
soak away thoroughly before being
disturbed, unless it is used to firm
the soil instead of 50 much tramping,
as is commonly practiced in irrigat-
ed sections. As soon as the surface
dries it should be gone over with an
iron rake and carefully loosened up
or leveled, as is necessary.
First-class, one-year-oId trees are
best for planting. However, low
headed tWo-year-olds may be salts
factorily used, provided they are not
OYergroWn and their root systems
are good. A one-year-old tree is cas-
Ter to transplant, as it can be head
ed as desired, and usually develops
into a better and longer-lived tree
than the older one.

j. j. BROWN STATES VIEWS
OF Western Conservation League in
Regard to Public Lands and
Water Powers.

We believe in conservation, but
we are also in favor of progress and
development. Our public lands should
be used for the purposes to which
they are best adapted, but not abus-
ed; the mines should be made to
give up their wealth, but not destroy
ed; the timber should be cut in such
a manner as not to wipe out our for
ests, and our water powers should
be developed as we need them for the
hundreds of ciVilizing purposes all
over the Rocky mountains and Pa
cific states"
j. j. Brown of Spokane, president
of the Western Conservation League,
and head of a chain of banks in
Washington and Idaho, appointed
by Mayor Pratt as chairman of a del
egation of five prominent business
at the sessions of the National Con-
servation congress in St. Paul Sept.
to 8, said this in discussing the
question of jurisdiction over public
lands and water powers.
ITO carry out the ideas of the ul-
ira conservationists in this matter of
and water powers, forest and other
natural resources he added would
greatly retard the development of
the Northwestern and Pacific states
and Alaska, without adequate COM
pensation to the nation as a whole.
The average conseryationist has been
made to take an extreme high posi-
ton on this important question, ow-
ing largely to having only one-sided
information, but there is another side
which, in fairness, ought to be under
stood.
The total horsepower of water in
the United States is estimated at
66,518,500, and of this more than
one-third is in Washington, Idaho,
Oregon and western Montana. Less
than 100000 horse power is develop
ed. 1t may also be noted that nearly
all the remaining public lands are To-
Gated in the Rocky Mountain and Pa
cific states and Alaska. East of the
Mississippi river are 20,000,000 horse
power of water and only 100000
developed.
In the Columbia river valley, be-
/ tween the Rocky Mountains on the
1 east and the Cascades on the west,
| there is sufficient water for all pur-
poses of the present day and for gen
erations to come, including the oper-
alton of all the railroads and irriga-
/ ton projects we shall ever need, all
! the manufacturing we shall ever do
and all the cities we shall ever build
That water power is so great that if
900 horsepower of it on an aver
age should be developed every year,
it would take 2400 years before all of
it would be in use, and when in use
it would be so for all time. If we
were to harness 100000 horsepower
a year it would require more than
240 years to develop it.
Water powers are local and are
confined in their operations to COM
paratiyely small areas. Each commun-
ity needs power to manufacture it's
raw materials. If this land upon which
these powers are located is restored
to entry under existing laws. the IL
ties for the most part will go to bona
