HOED CROPS IN THE ORCHARD
Practice Results in Severe Damage to
Annual PIantings-How to
Reckon the Distance

One of the most prolific causes OF
loss of nursery stock after trans
planting, or for several years there
after is this common practice of too
close growing of hoed crops. This
practice, says Rural Life, results in
severe damages to the annual plant
ings. The loss amounts possibly to
10 per cent. The too common prac-
tice is TO allow no more space be-
tween the tree row and the inter-crop
rows than between two inter-crop
rows, be the inter-crops cabbage.
beans, potatoes or corn. Such dis
tances vary from 80 inches to 3h
feet. according to crop used or
planted
In the first place, the distance
should be reckoned from the expand
ed top of the tree, rather than from
the trunk at base. The outside of top
is limiting factor, since the allow
ance should be made for leaning of
the same. or possibly all of the tree
on the leeward side
The nearest row to the tree row
should be far enough from the row
to permit the horse in cultivating to
pass freely and without letting har-
ness catch into or come in contact
with branches Of tree. 1t will sur
prise those who have never given the
subject much thought the difference
that the lean or incline of a tree
makes, when it deviates from a
plumb or to a vertical line. In the
writer's opinion the space between
tree row and the nearest winter-crop
row should not be less than four feet
the year trees are planted, if two
years old, or branched trees are used,
and farther each succeeding year

a writer in the Poultry Journal

used by the small poultrymen. These
are good if gathered when perfectly

make an excellent scratching material.

tain the best results it is essential
that the animals purchased for the
dairy should be Of the strict dairy
type, and be made a permanent part
of the farm live stock Those who
purchase COWS with the intention Of
milking them but short time and
then selling them off when the price
of butter-fat drops or when the ami
NAL goes dry naturally look more for
beef producers rather than milk pro-
ducers 1t is impossible to build up
a good dairy herd by this method.
DuaLpurpose animals may be used
in some localities to good advantage,
but to get the best results one of the
special dairy breeds should be used
This does not mean that only thor
oughbred animals should be used, but
animals that are bred for milk pro-
duction. A good dairy cow should
produce enough butter-fat in her best
days that the value Of the beef may
be of secondary Importance, if not
entirely ignored.
A person purchasing an implement
considers first how much service he
can get out of it and not it's value
as scrap iron when worn out. Those
who purchase dairy cow should con-
slider how much butter-fat she will
produce and not the value of her hide
