TREATMENT FOR GIRDLED TREES.

Young trees are often badly injured
by having the bark on the trunks
pealed off by rabbits or. mice. Many
of them are not worth repairing but
those that are not entirely ruined can
sometimes be saved. If the injury
does not extend around the entire
trunk the wound will usually heal
over in couple of seasons. If the
bark is left quite ragged by the in
jury it is best to smooth up the
wound with a sharp knife and cover
it with grating wax or good paint.
Grating wax is commonly made by
heating four parts resin. two parts
beeswax and one part tallow. Some
growers prefer to use linseed oil in
place of the tallow. Another good
wax for open wound is made by using
one pound of resin, a little tallOw
and a half pint of alcohol. The
resin and tallow are melted, taken
from the fire and when almost cool
the alcohol is added and thoroughly
mixed. This wax should be kept in

Hot Beds or Cold Frames for Early Vegetables

bed but has no manure and conse-
quently the plants are not forced as
fast. 1t can have either a glass sash
or a canvas covering. Plants grown
In hot-beds for later setting in the
garden should be hardened by trans
planting to the cold frame and later
to the garden. If 1t Is not practic-
able to have both hot-bed and cold
frame for these plants the seeds
should be first planted into the cold
frame and hardened by removing the
sash and exposing the plants to the
air during warm days.
Transplanting from the cold-frame
to the garden should be done on a
cloudy day or late in the afternoon
SO that the plant will have few
hours to recuperate before being ex
posed to the warm sun. Such plants
as cucumbers, squash and melons
will have an earlier start and there
fore longer growing season by start
ing in the cold frame and transplant
ing. This is desirable practice in
Western Washington. These seeds
may be started in berry boxs or on
inverted pieces of sod and the boxes
or sods transplanted with the seeds.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-01-01

A good hot-bed can be made by
digging a pit three feet wide, six feet
long and two feet deep. The pit
should extend north and south. A
frame should be built over the pit
and should be six inches in heigth at
the south end and foot to eighteen
inches at the north end. This will
give a slope from north to south al
lowing more sunlight than If the
frame we're level. About twenty
inches of fresh horse manure should
be placed in the pit and when heating
is evenly started four to SIX inches of
rich garden soil is placed on the ma
nure. For the best results the ma
nure should be just wet enough to
heat and contain enough straw to
make it springy when placed in the
pit. AS soon as the heating has COM
menced in the pit tramp the manure
we'll into the corners and sides OF the
pit, then add the soil and glasssash.
An old window serves very we'll as
a glass sash for covering. A thermom-
eter should be placed in the soil and
the temperature recorded daily.
Sometimes the temperature in the
bed will rise to 40 degrees F., but
do not plant seeds until it has fallen
to 80 or 85- degrees. Seeds should be
planted in rows which may be placed
from three to six inches apart de-
pending upon the size Of the plants
to be grown. Every day the bed
should be watered and the sash raised
for few minutes to give the growing
plants fresh air.
Early radish, spinach and lettuce
can be matured and used from the
hot bed, or such plants as cabbage.
tomato and celery can be started and
later transplanted to the cold-frame.
The cold frame is built like a hot

NUT TREES NEED RICH SOIL.

Under this head, by Ell. E. Van
Deman, appears the following article
in recent Issue of one of the leading
fruit papers and 1t should be interest
ing to many readers of The Ranch:
"There is widespread and grow
ing interest in the growing of nut
trees all over the country. At first
it was confined almost entirely to the
culture of the pecan in the South and
the chestnut in the North, but this IS

a closed vessel. If the injury to the
tree Is quite near the ground, soil
may be banked up to cover the wound
and keep it for drying out.
Trees which have been entirely
girdled may be treated by bridge
grating. Scions of new wood (previ-
GUS seasons growth) are. cut, made
wedge shaped at each end and insert
ed beneath the bark above and below
the wound. These scions will conduct
the sap from the roots to the branches
until the wound is properly healed.

PROTECTING TREES AGAINST
RABBITS.

Chow can / protect my trees from
rabbits?" is question that has come
to me great many times during the
last few weeks.
In localities where the rabbit is an
orchard pest several methods of con-
troll are used. Wire screen cut into
strips twenty to twenty-fou inches
in length and ten to twelve inches in
width is quite frequently used. The
pieces are put around the trees IN the
form of tubes, covering the lower end
with soil and tying the tube with
wire.
Strips of wooden veneer are often
used in place Of wire screen and this
material can be secured from
nurserym en- or from basket factories
Heavy paper such as building paper
will also serve the purpose Of the
veneer but Is not as lasting. Some
fruit growers used burlap sackng
tied firmly around the trunks Of the
trees, but when left on the trees dur
ing the entire year 1t serves as win
tering place for many kinds of insects
some OF which are harmful to the
trees.
Traps are often used and washes or
repellants are sometimes resorted to.
Some growers recommend the use of
a strong lime-sulphur sprayed or
painted on the trunks of the trees
an repellant. Others apply fresh
blood to the trees which are not in
iured as long as the blood remains
nd gives off its unpleasant odor.
One pound of commercial aloes in
four gallons of water on the trees
gives the bark and leaves bitter taste
and this is sometimes recommended.
Strychnine may be placed on apples
which have been chopped into small
pieces and will often serve as poison
bait. Repellants are more easily ap-
piled than screen or wooden protec-
lions but in Western Washington are
soon washed off by. the winter rains.
