THE Art OF TRAEsrLAxTrre.

In setting out fruit trees and trans
planting plants in the garden one ounce
of intelligent observation will provo
more valuable than a ton of theoretical
literature.
The nurseryman and gardener will
transplant thousands of plants and cut1
tings without the loss of single speciI
men while the average farmer will so
bungle his work that after purchasing
the best fruit trees that have excellent
root systems he does well If he succeeds
in making one-half of the trees reach
maturity.
The successful market gardener win
transplant acres of vegetable plants with
the loss of scarcely a single plant.
1t is simple truth although to some
it may sound unreasonable that an ex1
perienced fruit grower or grower of
trees and shrubs Will make a willow
stake grow where the average man cam
not successfully transplant a young wiz
low tree.
It is the same with blackberries and
raspbeTries, few things are as tenacious
of life as these plants. yet how many
farmers succeed in making them grow.

sowrNa AND cULrrvATrNa RAPE.

Rape is commonly sown either broad
cast or in rows about so inches apart,
and cultivated. 1 like the row system
the better. When it is sown broadcast
alone, it is put in at the rate of five
pounds of rape seed per acre of the
until it is about ii inches high, and
then pastured down with pigs or sheep
as the grower may desire.
1t is advisable to have two pasture
lots of it, so that the stock can be
changed to a fresh one, while the one
which has been fed down until the
stalks are about five inches high and
no leaves remain on them can grow up
again. 1t will take a very short while
for it to throw out new leaves and be
as heavy a growth as it was before il
was pastured down. Where il is sown
in drill rows and cultivated, three
pounds of seed per acre is sufficient
1t is cultivated as corn or potatoes
would be until it is so that it shades
the ground completely between the
rows.
Rape will stand vast amount of sta
BILE manure and give surprising
growth of green feed. It is excellent
for growing pigs and for brood sows
and their litters.
It is frequently sown in a mixture
with field peas, barley and miIlet It
| is the only one of the list of plants
that will grow up after being fed down
and while it makes a rather quick
growth after it is pastured off the first
time, it springs up and supplies a vast
amount of forage after the other plants
have once been fed off and give it a
chance to grow without beng crowded
Rape is also frequently sown with the
ordinary grain crops They dwarf it
down until it is very small and sickIy
looking until after the grain is harvest
ed. After harvest it springs up in Ine
stubble and supplies large amount Of
fall pasture. In few wet places where
the ground is very rich, it win grow up
enough to be caught in the ends of the
sheaves, but seldom enough to trouble
the curing of the wheat in the shock.
1t has very severe bloating effect
on cattle. and sheep and they must be
very gradually accustomed to it before
they can be allowed to pasture on it as
long as they would naturally do. When
it is damp with dew or light rain, it
causes bloating to be very much worse
and to come on more quickly. They
can gradually be. accustomed to it as
they are to clover and alfalfa, so that
it will do them no harm. 1t causes no
trouble when feeding pigs or horses on

dam will begin. This, chief engineer
A. P. Davis, of the reclamation serY-

"One OF the first things that will
have to be done at the damsite will be
the construction Of a flume to bypass
the river around the location of the
construction work, while it is in pro-
gress," he said.
Then the machinery will be in
stalled, a bridge across the river built
and the overhead tramways installed,
After that, the time of construction
cannot be estimated within 25 percent

There will be no changes in the
