George Won l.. Meyer. secretary OF
the navy, smiled as he made this
statement Wednesday evening on
board the presidents yacht Mayfiower

PENNSYLVANIA Tests.

The Vermont experiment station a
short time since conducted a potato
spraying test for the purpose of deter
mining what constituent of bordeaux
mixture causes the increased yield
from sprayed plats. The yields from
plats sprayed with bordeaux mixture,
bordeaux mixture and iron sulphate,
iron sulphate and lime, and bordeaux
mixture sprayed on soil, were com.
pared. 1t was found that only sprays
containing copper showed any in
creased yield over the check plats.
and the conclusion is drawn by the
authorities that in addition to its
'unigicidal value, the copper spray
when applied to the foliage acts as a
stimulant to the plants, and thus in
creases the yield of marketable tu-
bers sufficiently to more than pay all
the expenses of spraying.

WlMD3REAKs ON DRY FARMS
Not the Easiest Kind Of a Job on the
Benchlands-Some Seasons OPP
perfume for Work.

If the dry west is to become coun-
sary to furnish the same with pro-
lection. Many will be ready to say,
that this can he easily done. Such
a statement may not be exactly true,
says the Dakota Farmer. 1t is not al
ways easily done. 1t may in some
instances be on of the tasks that is
hardest for the bench land farmer to
accomplish But in mott instances il
would seem safe to say that 1t can be
accomplished.
In undertaking this work. It is well
to look ahead. There are seasons that
are specially opportune for beginning
this work. The present is one of
them. The soil is In that condition
that will admit of its being broken up
easily and deeply. The present. there
fore, is good time to undertake this
work. By blowing deeply and by then
working carefully on the surface I'M
til the winter approaches, the land
will be In a good condition for start
ing a windbreak the following season.
The kind of windbr~ak that prob
ably gives best promise at the present
time is white or gray willow. So little
has been done In wide areas Of the
northwest, that no one can say de1-
nitely at the present time the kind OF
plant that will best serve the purpose
1t would seem safe to say, however,
that the areas are few in which the
white willow will not succeed under
reasonably possible conditions Of
growth.
The grower. however, must make
up his mind to cultivate the trees for
several years, not fewer probably than
four or FIVE The cultivation need not
extend very far from the trees the
first year. but even then it would be
an advantage as it would open up the
soil for the better storage of water.
Where water can be supplied from
tank the task is much simpler, but
this is possible only in very limited
number of instances. This problem,
however, is one that must be faced.
1t may be deferred for a time, but
where homes are to be permanent
they must be protected.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES,

good as tonic. Most soils lack what
ashes give.
Do not fail to mulch the strawberry
patch this fall. 1t may prevent their
freezing out.

it with your fingers.
Don't sell all the good apples. Keep

Pick up the culls and feed them to
the hogs. Many of the next season 8
pests may come from fruit left on the

new packages and grade the fruit

bears grapes.
While the orchard is coming into
bearing try vegetable growing as a
side line. This makes one OF the surest
and best sources of income.
An orchard that is poorly planted
and carelessly managed the first year
is often an irregular, Improbable or
chard for its entire existence.
Three years of spraying, pruning
and cultivation will bring an orchard
that you are ashamed of into a condi-
ton that you will be proud of.
Pruning during the dormant ssa-
son encourages vegetable growth.
Weak trees may be invigorated by
proper pruning when dormant.
Scrape off loose. peeling bark from
the trunks OF trees before spraying
them, because this serves as an ex-
cellent breeding place for insects.
Unless rotten apples are promptly
removed from the orchard, fruit pests
will have an ideal place in which to
hibernate during the winter months
To secure maximum crop of fruit
of the best quality it is necessary for
each tree in the orchard to have q
maximum amount of vigorous fruit

FISH STORY FROM HALIFAX.
Fish Choke Feed Pipe and Stop Big
Steamer in Mid.ocean

Halifax, N. S.-A remarkable expe.
rience on the voyage from London to
this port was reported Wednesday by
Captain Chambers of the Furness
liner Durango. In mid-ocean the big
liner came to full stop; the circulat-
ing pumps failed to work and for a
time the crew were unable to account
for the cause.
When the interior of the circulating
feed pipe was examined it was found
to be choked with mass of fish pulp.
After the fish were removed the Du-
range was able to proceed at her usual
speed
The vessel had passed through a
school of fish and many of them were

Crop Rotation,

In testing crops the Rhode Island
experiment station a striking differ
ence is noticed according to what
crops are planted on the land the year
before. Crops were poor, following
cabbage, turnips and buckwheat. They
were better following potatoes, and
best of all following such crops as
clover and redtop. These results in
general, accord with the experience Of
farmers, some of whom have insisted
that turnips and buckwheat poison the
soil. Probably the fact is that they
use up most of the pla;t food, being
able to flourish under hayd conditions.
On the other hand, every farmer
knows that good strong sod of clover
or even of grass, is good foundation
for a good crop.
