POST MAKES A USFUl GATE
Two Sections of Fence Can Be Bent
Apart at Top, Making Handy
and Convenient Passage.

Here is a fence. horse-high, bull
strong and pig-tight, and without a
gate in sight. Yet the man who knows
can pass through it easily. The secret
rests in a pair of twin posts. Two
pieces of strong wood are shod with
iron at the bottoms. These iron feet
are hinged by being connected with a
long iron stake that is driven into the
ground and forms the foundation. At
the tops of the posts are hook, and a
loop to engage the hook. so that nor
mally the two posts are hooked to-
gether and form one rigid upright that
holds the wires as taut as they are on
the stationary posts that form the rest
of the fence. To pass through this
novel gate all that is necessary is to

ApiarleS SnoulO De kept IN orcnaroS,
as the bee is the best agent for cross
poIlination.
of serious consequence. Is it the wind
or our common honey bee that does
the work?
From observations made the past
few years it is evident that bees play a
most important part in the fertihza--
ton of the blossoms. To arrive at
some definite conclusions as to how
much pollen is transmitted through
the air by the wind, experiments have
been carried on in several states to
determine this question. These ex-
periments demonstrated beyond doubt
that plum pollen as we'll as pollen of
several species of apples experimental
upon is not transmitted through the
air in sufficient quantities to in
sure -pollination. Hence, the wind
cannot be relied upon as an agency to
transfer pollen from tree to tree
throughout the orchard.
That the honey-bee is not attracted
TO the blossom by the inflorescence
ddS diSo DccH SuONH. 1t Is apparent
that the snowy petals of the blossoms
aid materially in attracting the bees.
The blossom is we'll supplied with
nectar. and the open character of the
nectary makes it accessible to almost
all insects. The bees, in trying to
reach the nectar, brush against the
anthers and carry away with them on
their hairy legs and abdomen large
quantities of pollen. The insects in
visiting other blossoms transfer some
of the foreign pollen to these pistils.
Since the wind aids so little in cross
pollination, it is evident that the vari-
Gus insects, especially the bees, are
carriers of pollen.
AS the assurance of crop depends
upon insects as distributors of the
pollen. it is necessary that apiaries be
established in the different fruit Sec
tons. With favorable climatic condi-
tons and proper planting of varieties
the bees would insure pollination.

DIES AND
FARrNOTES

Baling is the proper treatment for
cowpea hay.
The hoe is the certain remedy for
the cocklebur pest.
Every farmer should give some at
tention to hairy vetch.
1t takes two years to thoroughly de-
troy all the cockleburs in any field.
The ground for sweet clover seed
should be prepared the same as for
alfalfa or clover.
The surest way OF getting rid Of
moles is to set one of the steel spring
traps over their runs.
Neither corn nor millets are espe-
cially sensitive to acid. They will
often do well on soils which are sour.
Grasses. as rule, require less lime
than clovers. but timothy will not do
we'll in soils markedly deficient in
lime.
Among plants requiring large
amounts of lime in the soil are al
falfa, clovers, pease, beans and
vetches.
Many growers say that weeds are
aS valuable as 1ertlllZerS as clover
and cowpeas' if they are turned under
every year.
Cowpeas that have a lot of crab
grass and fox tail mixed with them
make even better bale hay than the
straight vines.
Soil taken from well-established
alfalfa field and spread on land to be
sown to alfalfa is a very good way
to inoculate it.
If there is telephone line in reach
OF you, have phone put in your
house. II there is none, get together
with your neighbors and build one.
Lime should not be applied imme-
dia'ely preceding a crop of potatoes.
They are more likely to be affected
With scab should such application be
made

ITALIAN BEES ARE THE BEST
Abundant Evidence That Long
Toneued Insects Do More Work on
Red Glover Than Others.

There seems to be abundant evil
dence that the Italian bees do work
more upon red clover than the black
bees. and therefore that they do have
longer tongues. The project of breed
ing long-tongued bees that can reach
any or all of the nectar cells in the
red clover does not seem to us i'm,
possible when we see what has been
accomplished in the line of breeding
our domestic animals; our horses for
speed or draft. COWS for milk. butter
or beef. sheep for wool or mutton. and
dogs for hunting or other purposes.
1t is true that in these cases We can
control the mating as we cannot that
of the queen bee, but when We find
colonies that approach the type we
want. we can see that only those
are allowed to produce drones
and queens, cutting out the drone
cells from them. and if we allow them
to send out a swarm, seeing they are
provided with a new queen from the
most desirable stock. 1t may be a
work of years. and queens may be.
as it is said some have been. sold at
800 to 5000 each, but men who I'M
ierstand just what they want and
work for it usually succeed finally.

THOUGHT EDUCATION A FAILURE

Senator Robert l.. owen OF Okla

down Oklahoma way in one OF the

Owen a liar
Owen got up and addressed himself
to the court in about this language
"lnasmuch as the court has done
nothing to maintain it's own dignity
and as | am amply able to take care
of myself shall take this affair into
my own hands"
Then he turned 10 the lawyer
across the table and remarked to him
in a loud voice that he was both IA
liar and hlackguard. and that. fur
thermore. he could just take that. and
that. and that! Whereupon the oppos.
ing counsel fell to the floor as one
man. Owen had used only his fst,
but everybody in the court room fled.

After the affair was over the lawyer
who had called Owen a liar stood on

observed to couple OF friends.

PROFITABLE FEEDING
OF CHESTER WHITES
Difference Shown Between Hog
Given Penty OF Feed and
One Neglected.

The result of different treatments OF
hogs came to my notice last spring.
when a neighbor sold two average
pigs eight weeks old to a man who did
not have any other hogs. He bought
the two hogs TO make pork the next
fall and, OF course. wanted to give
them good chance to do their best.
They were fed wheat middlings. milk
and scraps from the table, in addition
to the pasture they gathered. They
were grade Chester Whites. narrowed
in April. These two pigs dressed be-
tween $50 and IFS pounds each when
about seven months old
The pigs that had not been sold and
out OF the same litter were allowed TO
run on pasture, and when corn was
ready to feed they were fed enough
corn to put them in pork condition.
but when slaughtered at about the
same time as the other two they only
weighed SO to 20 pounds each. There
was differenc. OF nearly loo pounds
between these well-fed hogs and their
mates not so fed, and II is wholly due
to different treatments. 1t is easy to
see which was the most economical
pork producer-the well-cared-for hog
or the one which got enough feed to
barely live until fattening time The
difference in value was almost $40. as
pork sold at 10 cents a pound here
last fall. The two well-cared-for hogs
did not eat near $40 worth OF feed
from the time they were separated
from their mates until they were
slaughtered

(By c. I. LEWIS and c. c. vINCENT.)
1t has been a question in the minds
of many experimenters for some time
just how much the wind aids in carry

wind does aid in distributing pollen.
is it distributed in sufficient quantities

Since so many of our varieties of

London.-The end Of the Balkan
war is in sight
Turkey has opened negotiations di-
rectly with the allies. having found
her appeals TO the great powers futile,
and, should not insuperable difficulty
present itself in the discussion of con-
ditions of peace, hostilities are at an
end.
The Bulgarian objections to an al
mistice without some assurance that
it will lead definitely to a conclusion
of the war are obvious, and the sus-
pension of operations may be taken as
an indication that King Ferdinand and
his advisers are satisfied that the
Turks do not contemplate further re-
sistance.
In Constantinople IL was officially
stated that cessation of hostilities
had been arranged. The Director of
Transport informed inquirers at the
War Office that such was the fact, and
simultaneously another official sum-
moned the chief contractors for mil
itary supplies and told them that hos
tilities had ceased and that no further
supplies would be required

would guarantee the stock, charging
one per cent, Of its par value. The
promoter would then be informed that
a purchaser for the entire issue had
been found. provided the proposition
was found worthy. A charge rating
as high as one-third or sometimes 45
per cent. of the par value of the
stock would be made for this inves-

was informed that his proposition had
proved to be no good and was
dropped.
