USE DYNAMITE
FOR FARMING
Blowing Up Compact Subsoi1 TO
Form Underground Reser-
voiro Has Produced
Good Results.

Where the surface soil is undertake
with layer of compact subsoil or
hardpan that is impervious to water
and impenetrable to the roots of
growing crops. the rain runs on
quickly and the land suffers severely
in times of drought.
Blowing up with dynamite this conf
pact subsoil to form underground res
ervoirs has been tried with good re-
suits, says the Farm and Home. Bore
holes IN the ground two to six feet
deep and from twenty to thirty feet
apart, according to the nature and
compactness of the subsoil and hard
pan. About eighty sticks of dynamite
are used per acre, which cost s1.50
with caps and fuse
An ordinary two-inch auger with a
long handle is used. and a half-pound
stick of blasting powder is placed in
each hole. The explosion breaks the
ground all around for a distance of ten
to fifteen feet, makes an opening at
the surface eight to ten inches in dia-
meter, and forms a subreservoir below
the bottom of the hole from three to
six feet in diameter. with the hardpan
shivered into fragments. The openings
and holes so created should be par
TALLY filled with sand or gravel to
keep them opened permanently for the
surplus rainfall The work can be
done in leisure time in dry weather.
Largely increased crops result. The
modern method of tree planting is to
blow a hole for each tree with dyna-
mite.

PROPER CARE OF
HORSES HOOPS
Wall, or Crust, Which Seems
to Possess Greatest Interest
for Horseman = Rate
of Growth.

All parts of the hoof. which is COM
posed of wall with its infection, the
bars, sole, and foot-pad, or frog. are
of importance as regards the useful
ness OF the foot but 1t is the wall or
crust-that part of the hoof which can
be seen when the foot is on the ground
which seems TO possess the greatest
interest for the horseman. 1t is sub
ject to many defects and is very in
timately connected with the retention
of the shoe.
No natural division exists. but for
conveniences of description 1t is divid-
ed into toe. quarters and heels. The
wall is thickest and longest at the
toe, thinnset and shortest at the heel,
gradual decrease in thickness &C.
curing from front to rear. The horn
grows downward from the wall, Sc
GREETING coronary substance with
equal rapidity. but there are certain
conditions which influence growth.
Abundant and regular exercise. good
grooming in keeping the feet picked
out and washed out. preserving the
moisture and suppleness of the hoof
by retaining in its integrity the ex-
ternal layer of horn known as the
periople. and at proper intervals re
moving the overgrowth of horn and
regulating the bearing surface favor
the rapid growth of horn of good quail
ity, while lack of exercise and rasping
the crust, which causes dryness and
brittleness and excessive length of
hoof hinder growth. Perhaps good
and bad feeding also have an infiu-
ence.
The average rate of growth is about
one-third OF an inch a month. Hind
hoofs grow faster than fore hoofs. and,
as nature compensates for wear, IN
shod hoofs grow faster than shod
ones. The actual time required for
the horn to grow from the coronet to
the ground, besides being influences
10 a slight degree by the above-men-
toned conditions. of course. varies in
proportion to the distance OF the coro-
net from the ground. AS We have
said. the wall is longest at the toe and
shortest at the heel. while some feet
are upright and blocky and others low,
wide and spreading. At the toe. de-
pending en- its height, the horn grows
down in from IL to 10 months. at the
quarters in from six to eight months.
and at the heels in from three TO five

an expanse of one and three-fourths
inches in the male to two and one-half
inches in the female. The larva is
yellow or dirty white, marked with
brown or black dots, and about two
inches long. See illustrations.
The moths appear about July /, the
males being very common around cleo
trio lights, and the females lay eggs
singly or in groups OF two. three or
four, in the crevices of the bark or
near the buds. The larvae, Matching
in few days, begin to tunnel in the
twigs, and by the end of the season
are about one inch in length. They
leave the small branches and crawl
over the bark to enter larger ones.
cutting galleries in them and expelling
they soon close with silk webs. Dur
ing October the borers go deeper into
the wood and remain through the win
ter two inches or more beneath the
bark. They pupate in their burrows
the second spring, and before the
moth energies the pupa works itself
partly out of the opening, and the
adult flies away, leaving the empty
case protruding from the burrow.
There are few natural checks. only
one parasite being known in this
country and four in Europe. 1t is be-
lieved, however. that certain birds,
especially woodpeckers, prevent the
spread of the leopard moth in the open
country. Many larvae are doubtless
killed by the breaking off of the
branches, which in cities are carried
away and destroyed.
Removing infested branches; inject
ing carbon disulphide (bisulphide) into
the burrows, and stopping the open
ing; probing with hooked wire for
the larva, are some of the methods of
control.
Planting species of trees not badly
infested, like oaks, honey locust and
sycamore, and especially those kinds
that do not grow very large. and have
smooth bark; placing trees further
apart, so that the larvae cannot easily
crawl from one to the other; and
keeping the trees well nourished and
vigorous. are the chief preventive
measures.

FROM THE EDITOR.
He Forgot That He Had a Stomach

Talking of food, there Is probably
no professional man subjected to
greater. more wearing mental strain
than the responsible editor of a
modern newspaper.
To keep his mental faculties con-
stantly in good working order, tho
editor must keep his physical powers
up to the highest rate of efficiency.
Nothing will SO quickly upset the
whole system as badly selected food
and disordered stomach. 1t there
fore follows that he should have
right food. which can be readily as
simulated. and which furnishes true
brain nourishment.
MY personal experience in the use
of Grape-Nuts and Postum" writes
a Philadelphia editor. 80 exactly
agrees with your advertised claim as
to their merits that any further ex-
position in that direction would seem
to be superfuous. They have bene-
fitted me SO much. however. during
the five years that I have used them
that I do not feel justified in with
holding my testimony.

that the expression implies as to a

gestion, in my case, with restless
ness at night and lassitude in the
morning. accompanied by various
pains and distressing sensations
during working hours.
THE doctor diagnosed the condi-
ton as 'catarrh OF the stomach and
prescribed various medicines, which
did me no good. I finally threw
physics to the dogs gave up tea
and coffee and heavy meat dishes,
and adopted Grape-Nuts and Postum
as the chief articles of my diet.
II can conscientiously say, and I
wish to say it with all the emphasis
possible to the English language,
that they have benefited me as med
icines never did. and more than any
other food that ever came on my
table.
My experience is that the Grape
Nuts food has steadied and strength
ened both brain and nerves to a most
positive degree. How 1t does 1t I
cannot say. but I know that after
breakfasting on Grape-Nuts food one
actually forgets he has a stomach,
let alone stomach trouble 1t is, in
my opinion, the most beneficial as
well as the most economical food on
the market. and has absolutely no

The leopard moth occurs in Europe
and parts of Asia and Africa. and was
probably accidentally introduced into
this country from Europe more than
thirty years ago, being first noticed at
Hoboken. N. J., and later spreading to-
ward the north and east along the
coast.

with horn of this quality is that the
feet do not grow.
