HOW TO HAVE GOOD ORCHARD |
Trees Should Be Set in Uniform Rows,
Far Enough Apart to Permit Cul-
tivation and Fertilization.

Apple trees should be set 80 to 40
feet apart in uniform rows to facili-
tate cultivation, and keep well culti-
waited and fortified, says writer in
the Progressive Farmer. Peach,
plum and pear trees 20 to 80 feet
apart A shovelfui of wood ashes at
the root of each tree will keep insects
out of the roots, and are fine fertiltz-
ers. Peach trees can be set between
the apple trees in the rows and taken
out when the apple trees are to
IL years old and need the space, as
the peach is mainly short lived.
1 keep all my pillow land in winter
crops, crimson clover, rye, wheat and
vetch, oats and barley, ETC., to con-
serve the moisture and humus and
prevent washing the orchard.
1t is useless to plant apple trees
near (one-eighth mile of cedar trees.
The cedar throws off a spore that
falls on apple trees and produces rust
Plant orchards. Nothing on farm
will pay better than fruit. If planted
and cared for right. Nothing is more
helpful to our families; nothing more
30 for our pockets. 1t is not game Of
chance; if played right, it surely wins,
but is failure il neglected.
No one now expects to raise good
crops of corn, cane or cotton, except
on land well prepared, well fortified
and we'll cultivated. They usually
stick fruit tree in the ground and
leave it to live or die as chance may
direct; cultivate only when they want
to raise another crop on the land. No
crop pays better for culture and care,
and fruit crops never pay in the long
run without intelligent care.

SCRATCHING POST FOR HOGS
Successful Plan Adopted by Maryland
Swine-Breeder-Crud Petroleum
Il Is Fatal to All Vermin.

If hog knew how to tell his wants
he would demand a scratching post.
Such posts, in the opinion Of many hog
growers, are not only source of great
comfort to hogs-the picture of hog
or pig scratching himself and softly
grunting his content is worth couple
of hours of any mans time in fixing
UP big post-but the post may more
over be made useful in Kidding the ami
mails Of lice or scaly skin.
A successful Maryland hog grower
adopts this plan: Firmly plant hick.
DRY or oak post four inches in diameter
in the hog run. Coil Manila rope
around the post as high as hog stands
and staple it on securely. Then thor.
oughly saturate the rope with crude
petroleum, and it becomes an ideal
scratching post for hogs and pigs
They rub up against it continually
and oil is fatal to vermin. Kerosene
can be used, but it evaporates too rap
idly.
The Madisonian. (Richmond, Ky.) 1913-1914, 1914-02-03

A leading stock raiser of Illinois
advises all yaang men to get
farm" In the course of his remarks
this farmer said:
Il believe the best results in agri-
culture will eventually be worked out
on small farms. On large farms, we
must work at arms length and cannot
do as well as we know how to do for
we must work through other men;
and the men who work on large farms
are not men who are brainy, shrewd
and improving-they are not of this
type. l have had an idea lately-the
first l have for four or five years-if
man has an idea that is really worth
while, even once in four or five years,
he will be doing well.
The farmer is the one who ought
to be surest of all the necessities and
comforts of life, and safest from all
changes, panics, hard times and other
vicissitudes. In the farm home, chill
dren can be better bred, better fed and
better prepared for the struggle of
life
1T seems to me that we, as farmers,
are not getting the most out of our
farm life. Combinations and trusts
are impossible, but it is better so; for
while those in combines and trusts
may be safe against those on the out
The Madisonian. (Richmond, Ky.) 1913-1914, 1914-02-03
PROPER GROWTH OF ALFALFA
Select Productive, WeIl-Drained Soil,
Cultivate IntelIigently and Give
Annual Top Dress.

Alfalfa can be grown successfully
where the owner of the farm selects
productive, naturally well-drained soil,
heavily lines, literally fertilizes with
PHOSPHORUS and potassium, intelli-
gently cultivates and prepares for an
ideal seed bed, !. carefully iroculates
with bacteria-infested soil, seeds at
the proper time with good seed, and,
last of all, annually top-dresses with a
mineral mixture of commercial fertil-
izer containing PHOSPHORUS and po-
tassium Thus, with due discretion
and judgment regarding the cutting,
curing, storing and feeding of the
crop. the farmer and his live stock will
not only be benefited by an increase in
dollars and cents, but also himself and
his family will take pleasure in admir-
ing throughout the entire season its
general beauty. and at the same time
he will be adding fertility to the soil.
The Madisonian. (Richmond, Ky.) 1913-1914, 1914-02-03

side, they are not safe against each
other.
"The farmer has, however, become
more or less imbued with the spirit
of commercialism-with the idea of
farming solely for money. He raises
big crops of corn, oats or feeds many
cattle to sell. And he sells them at
the other fellows prices, hurries them
on glutted market and then turns
around and buys many things that he
could have easily produced on his own
farm, at the other fellows prices. In
this way he puts himself in the en-
emys hands twice-oDce when he
sells and once when he buys.
ct seems to me that the first thing
you should do is to surround yourself
in farm homes with everything that
will be conductive to your comfort and
welfare.
Produce first the things you need,
be it fruits, vegetables or meat; then
after you have fortified yourself on
your farm fort, let the other fellow
have any surplus, if he will pay your
price for it.
You can solve the problem your
self in the simplest way imaginable.
Special meetings, long-winded reso-
lutions and profound magazine arti-
cles are of no avail

CARING FOR VETERANS
PROPOSED ORGANIZATION HAS
MET WITH APPROVAL.
Idea Is to Give Help to Old Timers in
Automobile Field Who May
Be In Need.

The plan in Detroit for the forma-
ton of benevolent society of yeter-
ans Of the automobile industry has
progressed This organization will be
formed to keep track of the old timers
In the automobile business, and also
TO look after the interests of their
families in times of need Of late
several old timers in the motor car
field have met with misfortunes, ac-
cident, sickness and the like and, in
their time of need have been in real
want. In other instances old timers
have dropped away, leaving their
families in dire straits.
1t Is the idea of the men who have
evolved the general plan of the be-
nevolent society to maintain cen
trail office in Detroit, and temporary
headquarters of the organization have
been placed in charge of F. Ed Spoon
er, SOB Free Press building, Detroit
England has an organization along
somewhat similar lines which is doing
vast amount of good. There was
some talk of an organized body at the
time Pat Hussey of Cleveland, one of
the most prominent of the old timers,
became suddenly blind. This was
about two years ago and liberal spirits
in the automobile world raised a fund
so large for his relief that he will
live comfortably for the rest of his
days upon the income from the fund.
This action of the few brought
thoughts of the probable results were
the entire field of veterans OF five
years or more standing in the field to
be banded together into one compact
body for mutual benefit, and that
thought has been uppermost in the
minds OF many until 1t has finally crys-
tallized into definite form.

KILLING THE POULTRY LICE
Hiding Places for Vermin in Nests
and Houses Should Be Cleaned
Out-Recipe for Powder.

One of the best ways to fight lice
on poultry is to keep the nests and
roosts clear of hiding places for them.
Thus it is wise to have all the build
ings just as simple as possible. FIRE.
quently, however, lice will bother no
matter how well the place is kept
cleaned up, and it is necessary to dust
the birds with powder. Here is a
good insect powder used at the New
York experiment station:
Mix three parts of gasoline with
one part of crude carbolic acid of 95
per cent. strength-one part of cresol
will do, if the acid is not available
and gradually add, with stirring,
enough plaster of paris to make, when
the liquid is uniformly mixed, dry,
pinkish-brown powder having a fairly
strong carbolic odor and a rather less
pronounced gasoline odor. AS a gen.
eral rule, it takes about four quarts Of
plaster of paris to one quart of the
liquid.
In using this powder on the birds,
remember that the eggs are not killed
by one busting, and as these probably
are present at the time of the appli-
cation, more than one busting should
be given. Repeat the applications
once or twice, at intervals of from
four days to a week.
For spray to be applied to nests
and roosting places to kill the insects,
mix three parts of kerosene to one
part of crude carbolic acid of 95 per
cent strength. Stir this mixture be-
fore it is used. 1t also may be used
as paint as we'll as spray.
The Madisonian. (Richmond, Ky.) 1913-1914, 1914-02-03

Hurrahl Automobile insurance rates
have been reduced.
Keep the motor warm in winter
and there will be less trouble III start
ing the car.
The Boston fire department has or
dered Is autos, including touring cars
and roadsters.
The Detroit police and fire depart
ments operate 159 motor vehicles, ac-
cording to recent count.
An ordinary carbon-burning foot
warmer placed under the hood will
