Sussex Gate-Hard for Cattle to Operate.
CBy NJ. COVERDELL)

(By NJ. CONERDELL)
This is one of the best seasons or
the year for building and repairing
fences, as one can 90 out Immediately
after a soaking rain and set twice as
many posts as he usually can, because
of the softness of the ground,
Then the strenuous season that tries
fences has just passed, and their re-
pairing and building thus is more nee
essary. Also, If the ground should
freeze before the work is done, these
needed repairs cannot be done so cas-
lily or so efficiently.
By doing all fencing, gate hanging
and repairing this fall, one will avoid
having these jobs on hand when the
rush season comes on next spring, at
which time the work is apt to be
neglected or sighted in the hurry to
get to the field; SO that the crops thus
are exposed to the stock more than
they should be through the entire
summer season.
Good fences insure the farmer know
ing right where he will find any stock
he may desire to see. They not only
save the time many farmers expend
in chasing around over the country
searching for their stock, but they pre-
vent the neighbors' stock from break

ORCHARD
GLEANINGS
NUT TREES THRIVE IN NORTH
Hickory Il Most Popular and Is Found
in Many States-Little Time
and Labor Required.

There are very few sections OF the
northern states where the shellbark
hickory and pecan trees cannot be
grown, The hickory is more common
ly found, and is a native of many
states. The pecan is usually found
along river or creek bottoms, but can
be transplanted to any soil, sand or
clay, with fair success.
The hickory does not stand trans
planting so well as the pecan. Both
can be grown from the nuts and the
nutgrown trees give the best results,
producing nuts younger aid forming
fine trees, as the growing in the open
from the start adapts the tree to the
location and there is no stunt from
transplanting
The pecan or shellbark when grown
in the open produce wonderful crops
of nuts. If grown on high land the
trees will never be large for forest
trees, but when grown on any low,
rich, moist soil, the trees make rapid
growth, soon growing into large fine
shaped trees.
There is always some uncultivated
spot on the farm where a few nut
trees could be grown. 1t requires but
little time and labor to plant them
and within a few years the home will
have a supply Of fine sweet nuts, each
year.

TO PREVENT WINTERKILLING
Alternate Freezing and Thawing
Causes Plants to Die Out-Straw
Mulch Is Recommended.

The object of mulching strawberries
In the fall is to prevent winterkilling
Winterkilling is usually caused by
the plants dying out too much during
the winter months, or by alternate
freezing and thawing.
The best mulch material to use is
clean straw this is placed on the
plants to inches deep after the
ground has been frozen.
In the spring after the ground is
thawed, the straw is worked around
the plants, writes F. F. MCCune in
Farmers Mail and Breeze. This serves
several purposes, such as keeping the
patch free from weeds, conserving
the moisture and forming a clean mat
for the berries to ripen on.
After the fruit has ripened, the
straw should be removed.

weight, estimating pigs at 200 pounds
each, would be about five dollars, or
five cents per pound. Under ideal
conditions, however, it is entirely pos
sible to produce hogs as low as three
to three and one-half cents per pound.
The average selling price for hogs
on foot in the South is at least eight
or nine cents per pound and often it
is much higher. Calculating the profit
on the produce of three sOWs with
cost of five cents per pound and
selling price of eight cents, the profit
