to Postmaster General Burleson today.
Mr.. Praeger deals with the changes

of the city as well as with the ad-
changes of his office.
He gives detailed figures on the saving
effected, and says: The reforms that
resulted in such economies would have
been valueless and futile had they been
accomplished at a sacrifice of service
to the public. But they have been ac-

IMPORTANCE OF HONEY BEE
Plan Outlined for Making Profitable
Farms Out of Cut-over Lands
In Northern Sections.

Francis jaeger has plan for making
farms out of northern cutover lands.
The two things on which success de-
ponds, according to his plan, are cows
and bees. He suggests that farmers,
seeking to subdue the cutover lands.
plant clover and other forage crops
among the stumps, and put a beehive
on every stump. Cows and bees alike
will thrive on the inter-stump crops.
The bees will also gather honey far
and wide from millions of wild flow
ers.
From the start, says Mr.. lager, the
bees will produce and bring a cash re-
turn. Two hundred pounds of honey
to the hive at ten cents a pound
would mean $40 to the hive. Ten hives
would bring a cash return of 5000, and
fifty hives a snug return OF $1,000.
With such returns and the profits
from a dairy herd. no farmer should
fear the northern stump.
Whether one wishes to adopt the
entire program or not. the busy bee
is worthy of consideration by the set
tier who is taking up northern lands.

PLANTING DATES FOR POTATO

April to July 1.

From New England west there is
discussion of early versus late plant
ing for potatoes. Each man In work
ing out his question, or at least each
neighborhood, will find help. we be.
lieve, from the following principles
On health depends both the quality
and quantity of the crop. Disease is
the limiting factor There is a con.
nection between ripeness of tissue
and disease, and between soil heat,
wet soil and disease Sunny weather
makes warm soil. Much rain or irrl-
cation on fiat lands produces soaked
soil. Soil fungi are also a factor, and
they seem to accumulate as a potato
region gets older. Clay soils remain
soaked longer than sandy soils. Some
troubles accumulate in the seed. There
is limit to keeping of seed potatoes,
to the maintaining Of good moist
warm but not hot seed bed, and a
limit to early planting because of late
spring frosts and too late planting
because of early fall frosts.
To sum up: On the side of early
planting are newness of soil, cloudi-
ness of average season. good slope,
good drainage, sandy soil, new seed.
poor storage and early season in
spring and fall
On the side of late planting are old
soil, midsummer heat and sunshine,
fairness of land, poor drainage, clay
soil, old seed, good storage, late
season in spring and fall. For any
district there is a tendency to plant
later, and to use later rather than
earlier sorts. For the northern half
of the United States the extreme
range seems to be April to July /,
with May Is to June Is seeing most
of the planting.

The method is inexpensive, can be

The longevity of the tick Is so
great that supporting the roosts by
means of wires cannot alone be relied
upon to kill out the ticks already in
the building, as a few of them may be
found on laying hens, or on chickens
which remain on the ground, and thus
keep the infestation alive. In view of
these facts it is recommended that
along with the suspension OF the
perches on wires, spraying or hopping
with petroleum or creosote be prac
tieed.

RISE OF POULTRY INDUSTRY
One of the Four or Five Most I'm.
portant Sources of Agricultural
Wealth of Country.
tBy NJ. HASTINGS,


The rapid growth of the poultry in
dustry has lately received much at
tention from the press of the country.
The best estimates available indicate
that the income from poultry prod
ucts Is one of the four or five most
important sources of the agricultural
wealth of the nation. The recent inn
provements in the methods and prac-
tees of poultry husbandry and the
rapid development of extensive poul-
try plants have also been the subject
of much comment. Although the
poultry plant is steadily gaining
ground In the eastern states and also
In the far West, the great bulk of the
poultry wealth Of the country is pro-
duced by the general farms of the
Mississippi valley, and it is also in
this region that the most rapid in
crease in production is shown.
In spite Of the rapid increase in
production the supply has not kept
pace with the demand. The proof
for this statement is the fact that the
price of eggs for the last ten or twelve
years has shown not only an absolute
rise, but also a relative rise when
compared with the general average
Of values of either farm crops or food
products. In contrast with this in
dustry, some critics have stated that
the farmer does not realize a sufficient
sum for his produce, compared with
what the city consumer has to pay
for strictly fresh goods.

The system of delivering milk in

great many respects over the old
system Of measuring it out from a

one of carrying them by grasping the

IMPORTANCE OF SEED TEST

DIVERSITY OF CROPS URGED
Stretches Out Work and Enables the
Farmer to Have Something Going
to Market All the Time.

1t is well at the first of the year
to make special consideration of the
oft repeated and much urged diversity
of crops About every so often-and
in almost every section of the coun.
try-we have a failure in some par
ticular line of crop, and like the pro-
verbal eggs all in one basket" the
farmer who devotes entirely too much
OF his resources to one crop is bound
to meet disaster Diversity of crops
is also especially desirable from the
fact that 1t not only stretches out
your work and enables you as we'll
to have something going to market all
the time, but likewise something com.
ing in all the time.
A small side line dairy so that It
will not crowd your other work fur
nishes a weekly cream check, a sub
stantial flock Of poultry, enough to
consume all the waste on the farm,
furnishes ready cash. Then when the
big grain crop is finally harvested in
the fall you do not have to take 1t all
to pay up all the debts contracted
during the season; these have been
taken care of by some of the side
line profits
OF course the main advantage and
the first principle of conservation IL
that, regardless of any single crop
failure you may have, or any live stock
epidemic, your years work will not
have been set at naught by having all
your profits knocked out.
