NUT-BEARING
TREES BEST
Worthy Of Attention of All Farm
sFs and An Many Casss They
VAL be Found Profitable
TO Grower.

By r. q. wEATHERsToNE.)
Nut trees are worthy the attention
OF all farmers and In many cases they
will be found profitable to the grower
and easy to get started.
Black walnut. chestnut. hickory and
butter.nut trees are propagated by
gathering the nuts In the fall before
they have become dry and planting In
April in nicely prepared ground as
deep as the diameter of the nut. either
where they are to grow or in row
In the garden-in the latter case they
should be taken up the first winter
and buried beyond the power of the
frost
II one half Of the top roots are
pruned before setting the young trees
the lateral roots will put forth a more
vigorous growth and the trees are
more sure to make a good. healthy
growth.
II 70 to be hoped that these kind
OF trees will receive more attention
In the future than they have In the
past as there are few farms that do
not have fence rows or waste lands
that could be made useful by plant

In his native town Jimmy had al

to boarding school. he was for time
too homesick to make friends. His
first letter was little more than n

I'm way behind the other boys in
everything" he wrote, dolefully.
.' .''Tisn't only studies. but it's gymna-
stun and banjos and everything. l

use for me-
But the second letter. written after
a week In the new school, was quite
different In tone.
I'm all right" he wrote to his
mother. The boys say they'll teach
me all they know. for they're proud
to have me here. I can stretch my
mouth half an inch wider than any
other boy in school, and my feet are
the longest by a full inch. So you
needn't worry about me any more

EXCELLENT HOUSE FOR SWINE

The hog house shown In the illus
tration is planned after the type used
by Prof. Dietrich at the Illinois Uni
yersity farm. II is SO constructed as
to admit the greatest possible amount
of sunlight directly into the pens and

when Il is most desired that 1t should
reach these places and also so that II

purpose shades may be drawn over the
open upper windows and the concrete
floors sprinkled with cool water dur

roof should project far enough at the
caves SO that the lower windows are
shaded by Il when the sun is high on
summer days. BY keeping the doors

During the last 10 or IL years the

attention on account Of ravages in
vineyards in Ohio. Pennsylvania and

grapes had been rather free from In
sect attacks ON the roots up to that
time. but the grape-root worm IL now
recognized as the most serious Of the
insects that feed on our grapes. A
special investigation by the bureau OF
entomology at Washington has been
made the subject of report. bulletin

tracts are made:
After discussing the vineyard condi.
tions. remedial measures tested and
various field experiments to control
the pest, the. report recommends
spraying the vines with an arsenical
poison when the beetles feed on the
foliage. They feed much more freely
Immediately after emergence from the
ground than later on. hence the ad-
visability of spraying promptly. A
sharp lookout should. therefore. be
kept from the middle Of June forward.

the Resolvent as directed. washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had

was clear and free from eczema, and
It has never come back again. His
