jury was informed that, Sin ascertain
ing the true boundaries of tract Of

appropriate where the identity Of
some OF the corners and monuments is
admitted or clearly established by
proof, though the identity and location
of other lines and monuments is in
fact in issue, as to which the evidence
is voluminous and conflicting.
4. Where the issues properly sub
mitted to jury are solely questions
OF fact, to be determined from COM
petent though conflicting evidence, its
verdict will not be disturbed, unless
the evidence is palpably insufficient to
sustain It.

SUMMER CARE OF THE FLOCK

The care of the flock of ewes during
the summer perhaps has more infiu-
ence upon the success of that flock
during the coming year than anything
else. For day or so before the wean-
ing of the lambs the flock should be
put on poor pasture in order that the
ewes may the more readily be dryed
up. After the lambs are taken away
the ewes should have the most care
full attention Drive up the flock dur
ing the morning and night for couple
of days and milk out the udders that
seem especially full. Unless attention
is given at this time the best ewes
will be ruined for it is only the best
ewes that will need the attention. III
the flock is in good condition they
should be kept on rather poor pasture
for the summer until the fore part of
August, when they should be turned
onto the best pasture that is obtain
able on the farm. This should be done
about 10 days before turning in the
ram, and if the ewes are not in the
best of condition they may to advan-
tage be given a little grain. This
method of handling the eve flock is
what is known as flushing and it re-
suits in nearly all OF the ewes breed
ing within one weeks time and also
results in a greater percentage of
twins. The ram should be kept from
the eve flock during the summer and
Sequachee Valley news. (Sequachee [Sequatchie], Tenn.) 1896-1952, 1914-08-06

should receive especial attention in or
der that he may be in the prime of
condition at the time of the breeding
season. If the above method of hand
ling the flock during the summer is
followed stronger lambs will be the
result and the lambs will arrive near
ly all at one time, thus enabling the
owner to give the maximum attention
to the flock during the lambing sea-
son. Unless this method is followed
there often is no well defined lambing
season and the smallest percentage of
lambs results.
Change the pastures as often as pos
sible during the summer; sheep like a
change of pasture, and also by so do
ing losses from the stomach worm
will be much less A rotation of pas
ture something after the following
method: Turn the flock onto the
wheat stubble, then onto the oat stub
BILE, then to the permanent pasture,
and finally onto the hay field that has
been reserved for them until the fore
part OIL August. III IHlS way lle uOCh
will be rotated onto new pastures
throughout the summer which will pre-
vent the ravages of the stomach worm.
Lambs that are kept for breeding pur-
poses may be turned into the corn
fields for much of the summer until
the corn is ripe.-C. A. Wilson, Ten
nessee Experiment Station.

And no peach must be dropped-every
fruit must be held in the hand until it

Pick the peach with slight twist, be-
ing careful not to crush it, and hold it
until it touches the bottom of the bas-
ket, If it be the first fruit, or until it
rests on other peaches, if 1t be the last.

bles, and each basket is packed firm
and full without bruising. Heretofore
the sfx-basket crate has been exclusive
ly used for shipping peaches from Ten
nessee, but larger packages are be-
coming popular in Texas and Arkan-
sas, and in many instances bushel bas-
kets are used. Whatever the package,
however, the object of the packer must
be to have fruit of uniform size and
quality, packed so firm that it can not
shake in the package, and yet not SO
firm as to bruise it in packing.
A growers reputation will depend
ON the condition in which his fruit
reaches the customer, no matter what
it may be in the orchard.-C. A. Kef-
fer, University of Tennessee.

HARVESTING PEACHES.

The main crop of peaches in Tonnes
see ripens in July, but the early varle-
ties are ready in June. No fruit crop
requires more care in harvesting II 1t
is to reach the consumer in good con-
dition. For rail shipment the peaches
must be gathered before the least in
dication of softness appears. 1t Is
quite impossible for peaches picked in
Tennessee and sold in Chicago to
reach the consumer in the greatest per-
lection, because to be perfect the
peach must be fully ripe when picked,
and for shipment the fruit must be
picked a little before it is perfectly
ripe.
II is important that the picker
should know the ripe color of every
variety. Greensboro, Carman, Belle
and Champion are all 'white-feshed va
rieties, but each has it's own distinctive
color when fully matured; it is not all
a question of the amount of red in the
sunny side, either; there is a different
tint Of greenish-white' in Carman from
what there is in Belle.
For rail shipment the time to pick Is
when the first indications of ripe color
develop. The fruit will be quite firm,
but full-grown. For local markets the
ripe color should be fully developed.
The best picking baskets are half
bushel in size, round-shaped, with
swinging handles. Carefulness must
be the rule for the picker. A bruise in

Curing the hay crops so as to get a
first-class product is practice that is
worthy of the careful attention of ev-
cry farmer growing such crops. Too
often cutting is delayed till the plants
are SO ripe that large per cent of the
leaves fall off in the handling, and the
product then is inferior in quality. Es-
pecially does this apply to such crops
as the soy-bean, cow-pea and alfalfa,
in which cases the leaves form approx
imately half the weight of the entire
plant. And when the leaves are lost,
the most valuable part of the plants
is gone; for it has been shown that
little more than three-fourths of the
food nutriments of the plant is in the
leaves. To get the best quality of hay,
the crops must be cut relatively early
in stage of maturity and cured in
cocks instead of parching in the swath
as is too commonly done.
To aid in the curing of the crop
when it is cut comparatively green,
and raked before it has been parched
in the swath, it is recommended that
the hay be raked when wilted and
placed upon racks or frames. These
are so made that when the hay is
placed over and around them it is kept

off the ground and free circulation
of air passes through the shock, I'M
der which conditions a first-class prod
uct may be obtained. The hay may
then be left upon these till thoroughly
cured. Soy-beans and cow-peas, the
hardest of the summer hay crops to
cure, may be cut in the morning and
put into shocks in the afternoon of the
same day with the use of these frames.
Alfalfa and other hays of the brightest
and best quality can be made when
they are used. But best of all there is
practically no loss of any kind with
them.
These frames may be made from
1x3-inch material. AS shown in the
Illustration, they are made by lacking
three six-feet lengths of this material
together in the form of triangle, two
of which are then placed together as
shown in the cut. Two other pieces
laid across the ground parts of the tri-
angles complete the frame. From four
to six per acre of these will be neces-
sary for good crops of hay, but with
proper care will last a long time.
There should be enough hay saved by
the frames every year to more than
pay for them. G. Pridmore, Uni
yersity of Tennessee.
