No young tree can be expected to
thrive on a lawn covered by grass,
since all grasses, especially perennial
runners like Bermuda grass. are en-
emies Of the trees, and the trees Of the
grasses, fact that can easily be OBJ
served whore the two classes become
close neighbors. For this reason il Is
advisable on all lawns especially to
keep the trees heavily and extensively
mulched until they are large and ro-
bust enough 10 subdue the grass An
other very important factor in the
beauty and thrift OF ornamental trees
Is during their early years Many
people plant a tall switch without
pruning 1t back into proportion with
the roots which have been seriously
reduced and injured by transplanting.
Some people even cut off the lateral
limbs thus turning the tree into
switch crowded with drying and blist-
ering scars due to the removal of the
branches. The proper way is to cut
well back. both the top and the
branches TO strong prominent buds
and thus concentrate the action of the
sap on these to produce quick and
vigorous start

Intensive Methods of Agriculture

The basis of prosperity Of the
country is agriculture, and agricultu-
raj prosperity largely depends on the
efforts of the individual farmer. In
order that these efforts may be used
10 the best advantage the farmer
must give careful study TO every
phase Of his business.
Like other manufacturing Industries
The aim Of the farmer is a larger out
put at lower cost OF production,
says the Practical Farmer. II costs
no moro to plant. cultivate and cut a
field Of corn yielding so bushels to
the acre than It does one Yielding 40
bushels, the only additional cost being
In handling and husking. and possibly
I'm fertilizer. The labor. which is the
largest item, Is practically the same
I'm both cases, and the cost per bushel
OF growing the so bushel crop is much
less than the 40-bushel crop. Under
ordinary conditions ton and a half
Of hay can be cut per acre, and by
top dressing with fertilizer, at IS per
acre. the yield of hay can be increased
to 2i2 tons per acre and the cost OF
producing the hay per ton Is ma
terially lessened.
Each crop has its particular char
actoristics and these should be studied
carefully TO see how the yield may be
increased az less cost per unit In
looking into the matter IL may be
that the preparation Of the land is not
thorough, or that cultivation is car
ricd on only In a half-hearted man
ner The fertilization of the crop has
much to do with the yield. and plant
food in proportion TO the need Of the
particular crop may be used 10 great
advantage.

removed. however, the most efficient
tool that can be used has been found
TO be an ordinary spike-toothed har-
row with the teeth laid flat and sevt

stretched beneath. Parasites have also
been introduced from Europe. the
original home of the weevil. and they
are expected 20 produce good results
