How to Supply the Soil With Humus


The plowing under and mixing
with the top to s inches of the soil
OF crop of vegetable matter will do
more to improve the fertility of any
properly drained soil than any other
thing that can be done except the ap-
plication of large amount Of stable
manure. In the absence of sufficient
live stock, with a large area of poor
or unprOductive soils, and the rapid
loss of organic matter due to climatic
conditions above-refered to, We must
adopt special and energetic measures
for increasing soil fertility, or con-
sumo long years Of valuable time in
our operations. Crop rotations which
tend to supply n large amount of hu
mus-forming materials and the keep
ing of live stock are very much to be
desired, but In the depleted condition
of our soils and the rapdity with
which humus disappears from them,
some more energetis measures are
necessary. In view of these facts, the
plowing under of crops grown en-
tirely for supplying organic matter to
the soil will frequently prove a good
investment.-Raleigh IN. c. Progress

f1nally extending through the trunk

emily may be in sound condition,
but the rot having penetrated the
trunk, even light wind is sufficient
to cause the tree to fall
Branches should be cut away as
close to the tree trunk as possible.
every effort being made to make
clean, smooth cut. The wound should
be dressed with paint to prevent the
inroads Of the rot.
A beautiful tree is not the result
OF seasons growth, nor even a life
times; century Is none too long to
produce it. and for this reason 1t
should have intelligent care. Many
OF our country churches and school
houses are located In beautiful
groves and 1t is often distressing TO
see these magnificent trees used COM
monty as hitching posts. the bark
gnawed by the restless animals, or
SCARED by passing vehicles. Little
effort on the part OF the church at
tendants would be required to pro-
vide hitching posts. leaving the trees
uninjured to fulfill their rightful mis-
sion, the adornment OF the place OF
worship.
One OF the problems OF the "vil-
lage Improvement Society" is how TO
arouse public interest in the care OF
trees. Many Of the beautiful shaded
streets OF the smaller towns. are fast
becoming treeless because OF the
thoughtless driver who uses a tree
for a hitching post. Entrance OF the
rot directly into the trunk means
more speedy destruction to the tree
than decay that must traverse the
course OF the entire trunk.

or the attacks OF disease upon the
towering plants one or two OF the
most common may be mentioned.
Roses, particularly of the Rambler
variety, are often very much disfig-
ured and injured by disease known
as powdery mildew. This may be
recognized in the early stage as
whiteish, fiour-like patches, upon the
young twigs. when we'll advanced, all
