$25 from each peach tree is not un-
common.
Irrigation facilitates the task Of
burying the trees. Just before a
hard freeze is due in the late fall
the Colorado orchardist digs a
trench to each peach tree which
he expects TO ''lay down" and turns
on the water, allowing it TO run
until the soil about the roots is
thoroughly soaked. lie then can
undermine the trees and bend them
down with little difficulty. They
are held to the ground by a heavy

A child of Mrs. John Trauschmanu,
Clarion, Ia. stopped to pick up an egg

to save him. There is no telling what
high spirited rooster will do. We
have Wyandotte cockbirds that have
yet to meet the bulldog they can't lick.
It's foolish fellow who still hangs
to the idea that testing incubator eggs
has no effect on the hatch. We have
known one bad egg to scent the whole
room where an incubator was set, and
when thrown from window the egg
went Off like shot. Such a rot soon
poisons the air in an incubator and
weakens or kills the embryos In the
