IMPORTANT SCHOOL NOTICE

Patrons are requested not to send any
beginners to the Tate building the coming
term. There will be no classes started
the next term because OF the crowded
condition of the grades. 1t is unfair at
this time to ask the teachers to take time
from the classes already under way TO
start the little ones. 1t is also impossible
for the teachers to find time in the middle
OF the yesr TO start the little fellows right,
Might as we'll not start as to not start
right.
Please consider the teachers and the in.
terests Of your children who have to start
school and give them the ADVANTAGES that
come from starting right next September.
May we have your cooperation in this
matter: We hope by another year to be
able to handle ell comers. Crowded con.
dition'forbid it now.

Potatoes Should Be
Making Thrifty Growth
Timely Cultivation Will Kill Weeds
While Spraying Will Prevent
Disease.
T. ID. WHITE.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

If potato seed is covered with a
pillow, the land Will be left in a rigid
condition. A week or two after plant
ing, these ridges should be levelled
down with board or clod crusher.
Just as the plants appear smoothing
harrow should be used to level the
ground and kill the weeds. Very often,
especially in late crops, it is not neces-
sary to do any hand hoeing if this
narrowing is thorough. Cultivation
can be done with an ordinary FIVE
shoveled eultivator. Small shovels
can be used the first time, stirring the
soil deeply. At the last cultivation a
broad shovel behind will work about
the right amount of earth up to the
hills.
Spraying to keep off diseases and
insects is an important part of potato
growing. For insects and diseases af-
fecting the tops Bordeaux Mixture
with either Paris Green or Bordeaux
is mostly used. To make Bordeaux
Mixture dissolve five pounds of cop
per sulphate in twenty-five gallons of
water, Stake also five pounds Of good
stone lime in the same amount of
water. Pour both together into the
spray barrel. To this may be added
eight ounces of Paris Green Or three
pounds of Arsenate Of Lead which will
kill the insects.
The spraying should be done thor
ughly every ten days until the vines
begin to mature. When the spraying
is done mechanically the machine
should, if necessary, be driven over
the patch several times, or until all
the foliage is protected with coating
Of spray material.

SOY BEANS MAKE VALUABLE
MARYL AND CROP.
Improve the Soil and Yield Hay OF
High Feeding Quality.
n. f. SCHMITZ,
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Soy beans make II valuable general
crop to grow on the average Maryland
farm since they both benefit the soil
and give hay of high feeding value,
practically equal to alfalfa. They are
we'll adapted TO our climate and to
most of our soils good varieties that
will mature in any section of the State
are found on the market.
The soil should be in the same con-
dition and be prepared in the same
manner for soy beans as for corn, eX-
cept that soy beans may be grown in
poorer soils than those on which corn
can be profitably grown. Soy beans
will not grow in very poor sandy land
lacking humus as well as COW peas
will. On the other hand, soy beans
are better suited than are COW peas to
the clay soils throughout the State
west of the Eastern Shore and South
ern Maryland The best soil for them
is a clay loan.
Soy beans may be planted from the
time corn planting is finished until
the middle of July, depending upon
the location and what the crop is
grown for. In general. the best time
is from June LIST to Goth. When a crop
of hay is desired. the method of seed.
ing is the same as with COW peas or
wheat-by using the drill. The rate
of seeding for hay is about l Y bushels
per acre.
In growing soy beans for seed, they
should be planted in rows "a to SO
inches apart to allow for cultivation as
with corn. For this about one-third to
hal hrs Of L.
quired. The planting may be done with
a regular corn planter, or wheat
drill by stopping the proper seed holes.
Few soils in Maryland are naturally
inoeulated for soy beans. When they
are being grown for the first time, in
oculation should be provided for by
securing soil from field in which soy
beans have been grown and working
into the soil at the rate of three to four
hundred pounds per acre.
The principal advantages of soy
beans over COW peas are their upright
growth their high and certain seed
yields, from Is to 35 bushels per acre,
less trouble in curing for hay and bet
ter hay, and uniform maturing of seed.
which makes harvesting for seed a
simple operation. Where fair
growth has been made, binding with
the wheat binder and shocking the
same as wheat is the simplest and best
way of harvesting. When well shocked
the bean may remain In the field all
winter without much injury from the
weather. The threshing is very simple,
an ordinary wheat thresher will do the
work very effectively, when the cylin-
der speed is reduced TO 500 or 800
revolutions per minute, but the separa-
tor speed must he maintained at the
normal rate as for wheat.
