ARBOR DAY
PROCLAMATION
Is ISSUED

The planting of a tree returns
to the world the largest interest
on the cost and labor involved of
any investment it is possible to
make.
The acorn, planted by some
hand in an idle moment, becomes
the giant oak. and generations of
men and women, in childhood. youth
and age, will find its sturdy SYM
metry grateful to the eye, and its
shade refreshing during the sum
mers OF unnumbered years The
act which brought the tree forth
was little, a few moments or an
hour to the task; but who can
compute the value, throughout its
cycle OF life, of majestic tree?
1T is the absence of trees and
shrubbery, grasses and flowers,
which causes the deserts spell of
fear and dread to men. Nowhere
else on earth, as in the desert
country, does man so rejoice at the
vision of trees and foliage. For
they declare life in an otherwise
liteless landscape.
Every tree, planted and cared
for, in Nevada is a blessing and
an heritance to the state / wish
we could more fully appreciate the
economic as well as the esthetic
advantages of extensive tree plant
ing; of those varieties most adapt
able to our soil and climate. II is
matter of greater public moment
than we as yet appreciate For
Nevada's primary demand. today, is
for settlers, and the homeseeker is
attracted as we'll by the things
which human living, as those which
appeal to his desire to prosper. Let
us make it a point this year, to
plant as many trees in this state,
each man. woman and child of us.

DRILLING GRAIN BEST.
Many Advantages In Favor Of the Us
Of Good Drill or Seeder.
BY W. =. Brown.

National Crop Improvement Servtce.1
Whether to SOW our grain broadcast
or with drill is hardly a debatabls
question IN recent years, the advan-
tages in favor OF the use OF a good
drill are now 30 well recognized. BY
means OF the drill the seed Is put in
evenly, at uniform depth; the fer
tiliIer Is placed Just where II will be
soonest available for the growth OF
the plant and the ground is left in
small ridges between the rows.
Ridges Hold Snow.
These ridges hold the snow so
that often a light covering will pro
tect the plant IN the furrows. Another
advantage from these ridges comes
when the freezing and thawing Of
mild days causes the earth TO crum-
BILE on the ridges and fall into the fur
rows around the roots OF the wheat.
Farmers who drag or roll their fields
after drilling the wheat lose these ad-
vantages All work OF that kind
should be done before seeding.

plTCAlNG WITH DYNAMITE.

II you could dig 500 feet OF ditch

you let your fertile swamps remain
idle and profltless? They are many
farms which contain low swamp
lands which might seem 10 the farm

ing. This is true, but the question Is,

blown out in q few seconds. Ono
man exploded dynamite cartridges In
a row OF bore holes. After the eX-
ploson the ditch was soon put into
excellent shape.
To construct the same ditch with
a dredging or ditching machine would
require much time and expense. The

QUALITY IN WHEAT.

lnp.

National Crop Improvem ent servicNl
Practically all the wheat produced
is used in the manufacture OF -four
Price nowadays prevents the use OF
any considerable amount as feed for
stock. Consequently the value Of our
wheat depends upon the amount and
character OF -four It will produce.
Quality Of wheat depends upon:
First, selection and treatment OF
seed.
Second, proper rotation OF crops.
Third. thorough preparation Of the
soil
Fourth, sufficient moisture and
plant food TO insure maturity.
Take Care Of Your Wheat.
Tho responsibility OF the farmer
does not cease when he has matured
good quality Of grain IN the field.
Exposure, while standing in the shock
causes bleaching, sprouting. increase
in moisture-content and consequent
decrease in test weight per bushel.
This means a lower commercial grade
and. hence, lower price.
Sprouted wheat cannot produce
good, sound -four that viii make
good bread. Also, taking up moisture
while IN the shock or In poorly built
stacks may cause heating to take
place, and the result will be bin
burnt" or stack burnt" wheat which
Is unit for -four making.
The presence OF smut balls from

disagreeable odor and dark color TO
the -four as we'll as TO the wheat All
these facts serve only to emphasize
the Importance Of thoroughly good
farming to produce quality as well as
quantity.
