How Little knowledge Helped.

An excellent illustration of how a
little agricultural knowledge rightly
applied will give results has just
been brought to the notice OF the
College of Agriculture, Ohio State
University. ]. v. Stockton, Athens
county, Ohio, owns 15-acre apple
orchard, 16 years old, from which
he had received no return until last
year. The orchard is situated on hih
ground. Land of like quality in
Athens and adjoining counties can
be bought for $40 to $40 per acre.
Mr.. Stockton attended lecture
given on special horticultural
train, that ran through his county,
and heard about the proper care OF
fruit trees. He determined to put
into practice some of the things he
heard. He pruned, sprayed and
mulched his trees, and in the fall OF
1911 he harvested 1000 bushels OF
fruit, principally Rome Beauty, Ben
Davis and Baldwin. He handled
his crop in bushel crates and with
the addition of a storage plant oi
his own he placed himself in posi-
ton to realize top notch prices fol
his crop.

The college baseball season opens
up next Saturday at Davis Field when
the college lines up against the team
from the Mt. Pleasant Indian school.
The Indians play the opening game
with the college every year They
never fail to put up a first-class eX-
hibition. This year it looks as if the
college will have the smallest team
in it's history but what the team lacks
in weight will be made up in speed.
All the men are fast and scrappy and
the team bids fair to be in the finals
for another championship.
