The Rule Of the Road

Some complaint has come regarding
the giving of half the road in case
of an automobile coming up behind a
team. The parties claim that when
they come up behind fellow with
a team he stubbornly refuses to give
any of the road, no matter if there
is plenty of room to turn out. Now
the law recognizes the rights of both
the man with the team and the man
with the auto, and.these rights should
be respected. There are plenty of
men who are driving autos who
should be driving OK teams, and visa
versa, but all men should not be
treated that way. The law says that
when a man is overtaken by a faster
vehicle. the man driving the slower
vehicle shall turn out and give half
the beaten path.

TO MEASURE WASTE WATER
Don H. Bark lnvents Machine to Reg.
ulate Waste in Irrigation bitches

Don H. Bark, who is looking after
he government end of irrigation wor.,
in Idaho, has recently completed a
tour of the state where government
projects are located and states there
is the greatest abundance of water for
all purposes. The dry farm outlook
was never better, in his opinion.
Mr.. Bark is now about to expert
ment with a machine which he has
Just completed, which will show the
exact waste to which an irrigator is
subjected who gives his land more wa
ter than is actually needed TO procure
the maximum results in the crops.
He has a tub-like affair which runs
down six feet into the ground, and
leading from this is a tube viii n runs
into another vessel some feet away.
The water sinks through the ground
in the, ordinary way, and the amount
which runs off indicates the water
which is practically wasted. 1t is said
that the practical method will show
just what amount of water is neces-
sary, that six inches is often better
for the maximum crop than two feet,
and the contrary likewise is said to
be frequently true.

NARROWING WHEAT IN FULL
HEAD
(American Falls Prcss)

/
Last summer, during the unusual
drowth, when because of lack OF
moisture for weeks great cracks were
forming in. the fields, George Wood
conceived the idea of narrowing his
wheat after it was headed and nearly
reached its growth, as an experiment.
AT that time there was little promise
of any kind of crop, and he consider
ed that nothing that could be done
would lessen the prospects. So he
hitched four horses to a large harrow
and narrowed two strips through his
field. Passers-by wondered if he had
gone crazy, for such thing was never
before heard of as narrowing wheat
at SO late a season. The result, said
Mr.. Wood, was that the cracks were
all filled, loss of moisture stopped.
and the narrowed portions of the field
became green while the other portions
rlpened rapidly. The two strips that
were narrowed remained green until
the other parts became so ripe that
cutting could not be delayed. AL
though these strips were so green as
to cause trouble in stacking, the yield
was noticably heavier and the grain
more plump. Although the grain
looked forlorn soon aftg' harrow
ing, it Strengthened up in three or
four days until no one could tell,
inspecting the ground for the
markings of the harrow, where it
had been run. Mr.. Wood is firmly
that he has learned some
hing about dry farming that will in
sure good crops in the most unfavor-
able of seasons.

CULTURE OF YOUNG TREES

The first year is probably the most
trying time for the young tree. 1t is
at this period that it requires plenty
OF moisture and good vigorous
growth. Any shock or heck to
growth invites disease and innumer-
able troubles. All cultivation in the
young orchard must be directed to-
ward the production of healthy, Wig
orous and well grown tree. Neglect
and sod will not keep the young tres
growing at it's best. The grower
should use judgment in handling his
young orchard for it is very easy un.
der our western conditions to grow
a tree too rapidly.
This is especially true i'm the irri-
gated sections. The evil effects of
forcing the growth is noticed in large
brittle limbs which readily break un-
der weight of fruit. in the absence of
fruit spurs, and in the inability of
the tree to produce fruit in proportion
to its age. Only a study of the indiv-
fdual tree can determine the methods
to use in handling a young orchard.
Some growers make the mistake of al
lowing their trees to bear fruit while
too young. If trees have tendency
to do this when they are two to five
years old, judicious thinning must be
practiced. A two-year-old apple or
pear tree should not be allowed to
bear fruit, while an occasional speci-
men may be allowed to remain on the
three or four-year-old tree. An alb
normal growth is somtimes directly
1ue to heavy pruning while the tree
s dormant, but in some cases it may

'ertilization.-W. H. Wicks, lhorti-

pane or spend hours amusing them
selves trying to imprison it under a
tumbler. Did their parents, however,
realize the deadly disease germs the
fly might convey to their little ones
the summer invasion of flies would
soon cease to trouble us.
Typhoid, cholera, the plague, con-
sumption, every kind of summer COM
plant can be traced to germs found
on the fy's feet.
Eight hundred and sixty thousand
fungus spores were found on a single
footprint of a common house fly.
The fly feeds on refuse of every
form of filth, rotting flesh or vege-
table, it carries disease germs from
the bedside of the sick to the healthy.
When people begin to realize these
facts the campaign against the fly
will end in less disease, less doctors
bills, and more comfort and happiness
in the home through fewer deaths.
The fly should be kept out of the
house by every possible means. Wire
screens and fly paper should be plenti-
fully used. The fly paper should be
burned with the flies.
One dram of bichromate of potash
dissolved in two ounces of water. to
which little sugar is added, placed
in shallow dishes about the house will
attract and kill numbers of these
pests.
