The Norway spruce will thrive on
moderately fertile soil and upon hill
sides impossible for general tillage.
Like any crop. they grow faster when
cultivated, but they may be profitably
grown where such treatment Is not
always possible, by simply keeping the
weeds and shrubs from overlapping
them or better still by mulching with
straw or similar material.
Any waste place about the farm or
even vacant city lots can be profitab bly,

There Is little doubt but that the
time will come when the Christmas
tree business will become recognized
industry in this country. as 1t Is In
Germany, where the per capita con-
sumption of Christmas trees Is the
greatest. and that as much attention
will be given to 1t as will be given to
the growing Of crops of timber for
other uses. This time may not be far
off, for 1t is already understood that
only through the practice of forestry,
which means both the conservation OF
the timber which remains and care

the question, but it Is based on senti-

It is estimated in round numbers
that not over 100000 Christmas
trees are used annually Gone for every
fourth family, a number utterly in
significant and Incompatible with the
sources Of timber waste, such as fires,
grazing and careless logging, nor is
the demand comparable with the con-
sumption for other purposes for which
timber is used. D..
Instead Of discouraging the custom,
Il should be considered consistent and
proper that it be maintained in sup
port OF the principle that trees are for
use and there is no other use to which
they could be put that would contribute
30 much to the Joy of man as their
use by the children on the greatest
holiday Of all the year.
These 100000 trees can be pro-
duced on 1900 acres Of land, and 49,
600 acres Of land would produce a
constant supply Of Christmas trees for
the entire population Of the United
States.

sUPPLEs1ENTING THE PASTURE,

Green crops fed as a supplement to
pasture may be fed in the pasture or
in the barn lot but as a rule are fed
most economically in the barn. The
cows remain inside long enough at
milking time to eat their portions.
AS a rule the most economical
method Of supplying feed to help out
the short pastures of midsummer and
fall is to feed corn silago. Silage will
keep in good condition for summer
feeding with no loss except on the
surface. If 1t is not needed during
ths summer, it may be covered with
the new silage and kept until wanted.
Germ furnishes, larger yield Of dry
matter per acre than any crop that
can be ordinarily grown for summer
feeding, and has the further advan-
tage Of being on hand as early as
wanted.
:! 1t Is handled more economically also
than sofling crops since it Is cut all
at once and not every day as is nece3-
sary with soiling crops.
It should be emembered that It IL
only possible to feed bunch Of cows
economically when they are fed as
individuals and not as herd. A
too common practice, even in tho
otherwise we'll conducted herds, is for
all animals to be fed the same amount
Of grain. regardless Of the time they
have been in milk or the quantity Of
milk the individual cows are pro-
ducing. Such feeding always lacks
economy, as the high producing cow
does not get enough, and while she
may milk very we'll for time, she
soon comes down to a lower level,
while the lighter producing COW usu-
ally gets too much feed and accumu-
ates fat.
