Mason City. Oct 2z.-"one million
dollars will not compensate for the less
of hogs in Cerro Gordo county alone"
was the remark made by Veterinary
Stott. And added to this is the fact
that Cerro Gordo county has not suf-
fered from the loss of hcgs as has
some Of the adjacent counties. Mr..
Stott states that fully so per cent Of
the hogs of this county are infected
with the disease. The specter has
stalked over the northern part of the
state and has depicted the resources
as no other Scourge Of recent date.
1t has been much in doubt whether
progress was oeing made in the treat
ment of the disease. Veterinarians
here are busy treating the swine and
some believe that advance is being
made, while others are not so positive
in the belief. A, he best it is provins
quite a costly experiment.
Treatment Is Expensive.
The serum being used in this section
of the state is coming largely from
st. Louis and Omaha. According to
the report of the veterinarians it costs
5000 for enough serum to vaccinate 900
hogs. And added to this is the expense
of the actual work. A good many hog
raisers have become so discouraged
that they are selling all the pigs and
hogs they have and are going COM
pletely out OF the business. It is this
phase OF the question that hs alarming
the pork packing plants in northern
Iowa and southern Minnesota. So
many of the hogs now being butchered
srs being rejected By the inspectors,
and are turned into the rendering
tanks and into tankage, forcing the
high prices Of all kinds Of pork. Ac-
cording to managers Of packing plants
the prospects for the next few years
are not bright.

of the lands will be sold this fall.
Most of this land is in the western

SEND SIGNATURES,

Many harvest hands and other Ia
porers find difficulty in getting money
orders cashed in this city, owing to
the fact that there is no way to iden-
tify them.
1t is h custom of laboring men,
when they get their seasons wages, to
buy a money order at the nearest town,
before coming here, as they fear be-
ing robbed on the road. When they
arrive here, they cash the money or
ders, buy new clothes or whatever else
they want to outfit with, and leave for
the lumber camps or some other point.
Postmasters in towns about the state
should see that the men who buy
money orders payable to themselves
at some other point leave their sigma
lures, or some other form of identif-
cation which can be sent to the office
upon which the order is drawn. This
would save much trouble and many
complaints.

PREPARING FOR
NEW SETTLERS
EXTENDING THE AGRICULTURAL
AREA IN WESTERN CANADA.

For sometime past the Canadian
government has had surveyors at
work plating new areas for the ac-
commodation OF the largely increas-
ing number Of settlers coming In to
occupy the agricultural districts OF
the three prairie provinces. There
were those connected with the work
of securing settlers for western Can
ada who last spring prophesied that
there would be as many as 17b.OOO
new settlers from the United States
to Canada during the present year,
and there were those who doubted
that the previous years figures OF
$4,000 could be increased. Recent
computation made By the officials Of
the immigration branch at Ottawa
show that the largest estimates made
by officials win be beaten and that
the 100000 mark from the United
States will be reached. AS great an
increase will be shown In the figures
Of those who win reach Canada from
other countries this year. The re-
suits Of the years work in Canadian
immigration will give upward OF Q
total Of 100000 souls.
But this IL not to be wondered at
when It IL realized what Is offering In
the three prairie provinces and also

SOME THINGS ABOUT TREE PLANTING
WHICH THE FARMER SHOULD CONSIDER

trees newly planted OF which the
foliage was completely-drIe out and
turned brown in twenty-tour hours,
all due to the exposure TO the wind.
The wind Is the most Objectionable
factor in the country to the growth OF
trees. II a dry period follows the
planting, the trees are almost sure to
suffer unless we'll protected. The
best means Of protection is here u
Illustrated. This is a veneer wooden
tree shield, which entirely encloses
the tree and is held in place b. the
wire tie, as can be seen. The wind
Is liable to blow this of unless they
are fastened down more securely. This
can easily be accomplished by driving
stake inside the shield and lacking
the two together with single nall
This shield is sufficient to protect the
tree against winds, rabbits or any
other source of danger for three or
four years. After this time, 1t should
be entirely able to take care OF itself
and endure the climatic conditions OF
this country.
The same shield, except In large
sizes, is one Of the best means OF
protecting the broad leaved trees,
whether fruit or shade trees, against
attacks by rabbits. The cost OF this
protection is very slight, as these
shields can be secured at $3.50 per
thousand plus the express charges.
For wind break or protection plant
ing, the trees should be set about
eight or ten rect apart in rows at
least eight feet apart. The trees OF
one row should fall In the spaces be-
tween the trees of the adjacent row,
When spaced in this way, three rows
OF evergreens make q very efficient
wind break. For yard planting, the
trees should be set at least twenty
feet apart, and arranged more or less
promiscuously about the yard: Fol
street planting they should be SET
from thirty to forty feet apart. There
Is no general rule for the distance al
which shade or ornamental trees
should be planted, but they should be
spaced so that they will have enough
room to grow.

~oR ALL.planting in prlarle re-

r%oR ALLsplanting in a priarie re'
glon small sized trees should be
used. The great difficulty with
many planters in getting trees to
grow successfully has been largely due
to the fact that they have planted
trees that aie too large. When con-
sIdering tree planting always bear In
mind the fact that 1t is the. roots that
support the plants and gather food
for its growth and development, and
that the root system must bear a def
mite relation to the top.
In transplanting trees practically
nine.tenths of the entire root system
is left in the ground where the tree
originally grew, and consequently the
one.tenth that is carried with the tree
is called upon to supply the needed
nourishment to sustain life and
growth. Then this being the case, the
larger the tree ut the time 1t Is trans
planted the more dihlcult 1t is for
the roots to supply the needed nour'
ishment, as large tops require more
food than the smaller top. This being
the case, 1t stands to reason that
smaller trees with a large proportion
of roots are more likely to succeed,
and such has been found to be true
in tests.
When planting broad leaved trees,
It is very necessary that the top be
cut back in proportion with the roots.
However. 1t is few planters who are
willing to cut back like proportion
OF the top. Merely cutting off the
ends OF the larger limbs and the top
OF the leader is not sufficient, and af-
ter weeks of deliberate struggle, the
tree finally dies before the roots have
had an opportunity to become estab'
lished.
In the case of conigers, which are
evergreens. tnp nrnnins Is not adj
visable and for this reason still small
er stock should be used.
Another point that l want to en-
phasize in this connection is the need
of thorough cultivation and care of the
trees after they are planted. Trees
demand just as good cultivation as
any other planted crop and they re-
spond Just as quickly to such treat
ment. They must have moisture II
they are to grow and develop, and
this moisture must be kept in the soil
by means of cultivation. Never toll
crate grass or weeds to grow within
three or four feet of the tree, and
never allow the surface Of the soil
to become packed or baked around
the tree.
Another point that should be en-
phasized is the need of protection to
newly planted trees. The first pro-
lection is that against the winds and
especially in the case of the ever
green trees. l have seen evergreen
