SOIL AND FRUIT.

A common mistake In the selection
of site for the apple orchard tract,
large or small. is that OF choosing
soil that Is too rich; that will cause
abundant growth Of wood, but mighty
little fruit In the valley In which the
writer's ranch is located is an or
chard OF mature apple trees, as pretty
Il sight from the standpoint of foliage
as one could ask TO see, which has
lately been felled because 1t did not
deliver the goods. The tract is fat,
rich and well watered. Within gun.
shot OF this tract Is block Of winter
Nelis pear trees of the same age that
for several years past have crossed
their owner close to a thousand dol
lars per acre. Never was more EN-
phatically demonstrated the fact that
soil can be too rich for apples, but
not for pears. Within a mile OF these
unproductive apple trees, on thinner
and lighter granite soils, the apple
trees bear prolifically to the point OF
breaking down.

INTENSIVE FARMING
Instructor Animal Husbandry and Special Investigator
Storing Fruit and Vegetables

Every farmer should have a cellar
or cave, and all the more IL he has
no spring house to keep milk and but
ter In. There is probably nothing a
farmer can do with as little expense
that will help more in keeping down
the high cost OF living than to provide
his wife with a building OF this kind
and then see to II that she has plen-
ty to fill 1t.
Without proper underground stor-
age 1t is impractical to keep canned
fruit and vegetables thru the winter
and many people on the farms go to
the store and buy canned goods. The
money spent in this way alone in
two or three winters would more than
pay for cave. Then too the vege-
tables, apples, and potatoes for use
till February can be stored here and
avoid the trouble of holing up 30
many, and then having to go out and
dig up the frozen ground to get them.

over the supplies frequently and sort
out all that is decaying in order to
keep the air sweet and pure, and
then milk and butter as well as eggs
can be kept here at an even and
moderate temperature which is so
important in making good butter.
Most farm houses have sloping
ground near by where cave can be
made at very small expense. Even
II the ground is nearly level it Is
not much more work to dig down a
place 10x12 feet about three #. deep,
and use the dirt to bank up around
the sides. A building that will last

Is the one best adapted to the average
potato growers conditions. II may be
briefly described as follows:
At digging time portion OF all OF
the crop depending upon It's size) is
dug by hand. the product OF each hill
being placed by Itself on the ground
nearby. general view Of the field
after digging will enable the grower
to quickly decide upon a certain stand
ard to which those hills that are to be
saved for seed must conform. For
example, the standard may be those
hills which contain at least four or FIVE
uniform, typlcally shaped tubers OF
marketable size, with few, II any,
small ones. Having decided upon the
standard OF selection, as many hills
coming up to the standard as may be
needed should be picked and reserved
for planting the next years crop. The
same process should be repeated with
each succeeding crop.
Farmers Bulletin 1856 OF the United
States Department OF Agriculture
cites the case OF Michigan man who
followed the above method of selec-
ton. OF the potatoes grown in the
field the first year, only 16 hills out
OF every 100 equaled his standard OF

ways count on covering and side wall
ing this shed with the straw. IL you
don't thrash any grain, cover It with
a stack of corn fodder. The north
side and the east and west ends
can be made to keep all cold winds
out by spiking poles or boards, on,
rather close together, and then set
ting corn fodder up all around A lit
tie fencing will keep stock away from
this fodder on the outside. The fod-
der can be gradually fed from roof
and sides during March and by the
balmy April days the stock don't
need much shelter and the fodder is
all fed out. But the frame work is
for the next ten winters to come.
Managers can be built along the
back wall of the shed to feed hay
and fodder in. so as to waste no
feed.
Another great advantage in this
kind of shed is that you save
practically all the manure; and this
is matter to which every careful
farmer is now giving his strictest
attention.

According to the last United States
Census. West Virginia produced In
1903, from i2,62l acres. 4,O77, OG6 bush.
els OF potatoes. an average yield Of
957 bushels per acre The total value
OF the crop was $2.27s.63S, the average
value OF the crop per acre being
S53iG. In total value. the crop was
exceeded by corn. wheat. timothy alone
and timothy and clover. In average
value per acre the potato crop ranked
second. being exceeded by tobacco
alone. II was followed by the above
mentioned crops. as follows: Corn.
$i76i per acre; wheat. Sl2s9; hay
and forage, sl057. From these figures
It will be seen that the potato crop
is one Of the most important grown
by our farmers. and anything that will
help 20 increase the average yield per
acre should be OF interest to them.
Our corn growers are rapidly awak-
enIng TO the fact that It pays to select
end grade their seed corn and to test
IT'S vitality before planting. Very little
attention Is given 70 the improvement
OF the sotato crop by similar means,
although equally gatifying results may
Ne quickly. surely and cheaply obtain
ed with the latter crop II careful at
ten,ion Is given to the selection and
storage OF the stock used for planting.
Any one who has dug potatoes by
hand can not have failed to notice a
great variation In the yields OF the dif-
ferent hills. The usual method of Sc
lectIng the potatoes for planting from
the bin fails 10 take this fact into con
slderation. Even though the grower
may chose only those tubers that are
smooth, typical In shape, and OF mar
hetable size. he has no way OF know
ing whether a tuber answering this
description was one OF several similar
ones from a high yielding hill or the
only desirable one from a low yielding
hill. The method known as hill Sc
lection" overcomes this weakness and

a life time can be made OF stone OF
concrete and, IL one can at all spare
the money for the extra cost, 1t is
well TO do II. In many places cave
can be cut right out OF the slate OF
soap stone rock in the side OF the
hill and there will be a natural stone
floor and very little walling will be
necessary. A good roof should be
put on and boards should be nailed
close together on the underside Of
the rafters to prevent freezing In
very cold weather.
A cave can be made at much less
expense that will last several
years by walling 1t up with good oak
plank. Many use plank for roof and
cover it with or 10 inches Of
earth.
Provision should always be made
for drainage. II your hill is not steep
enough to allow drainage right out
to the surface of the ground at the
front of the cave, a tile or plank dral
should lead out from the lowest place
in the floor.
A cave will pay for itself In one
or two summers by the increased
value Of milk and butter and by hav-
ing a cool place to store eggs till
they are marketed. You will get at
least 25 per cent more cream from
your milk by keeping it on the cool
floor Of the cave or cellar. Nearly as
nice yellow butter can be made this
way In summer as in winter. and t
will keep nicely several days if it is
not convenient to market it when
churned.
