Good blowing means more than

ally makes straight burrows. In Q

BILE and rubbish are completely turned
under where 1t will be out Of the way

crops, deep, rather than shallow plow'

To do good work with a minimum
OF power. plows must be equipped with
properly shaped and sharpened shares
A good share allows q pillow TO run

To turn under all rubbish q good

No stubble OF weeds are left sticking

MAKING THE WOOD LOT PAY
Farmers Cannot Afford to Keep Tn
profitable Land - Every Acre
Means Money In Carrying.

The farm wood-lot problem is a very
important one. It is the problem OF
making the wood lot pay. Farmers
can no more afford to keep improbable
land than they can afford to keep un-
profitable cows. Idle land which is
not growing more valuable is like a
boarder in the dairy herd; 1t eats up
part Of the profit made elsewhere.
Good farm management may or may
not call for the opening of an actual
book account with the wood lot, but
every good farmer needs to know at
the close of the year whether he is
richer OF poorer for his timbered land.
II costs money to hold land. Every
acre means carrying cost. The tenant
farmer pays this cost in rent. The
man who works his own farm should
be able to earn at least rent and
wages II he sold the farm and put
the money in good savings bank 1t
would yield him yearly income with.
out the lifting Of finger. His farm
is an investment. 1t should be a pay.
ing investment.
II the wood lot does not directly or
indirectly compensate for taxes and
interest allowance on its value. it is
not doing its share toward making the
farm pay. It is being carried at net
loss.

CONTROL DISEASE OF APPLE
Most Effective Treatment fer Blight
Is to Cut Out Every Affected
Twlg and canker.

(By ]. B. S. NORTON. Maryland Expert
ment Station.l
The most effective treatment for
the control of apple blight consists
in cutting out the diseased parts. In
young orchards and in nurseries
where there is naturally but little
blight, and in old orchards in seasons
when blight is not serious, by cutting
out every blighted twig and canker
as soon as possible, giving special at
tention to the body and base of the
tree, bad outbreak may be prevented
In following years. It is also neces-
sary to destroy all blight in the neigh.
borhood on wild or cultivated trees as
the bees may carry 1t long distances.
Bees are, however, necessary to pol
lenate the flowers.
When old bearing trees are badly
infected, winter is the best time to
cut out the blight. The cuts on large
branches or in the trunk should be
brushed with a disinfectant and when
dry protected by painting with white
lead in linseed oil. In cutting blight
in the growing season, it is important
to wipe the pruning instrument after
each cut on cloth or sponge wet with
either carbolic acid, concentrated
lime-sulphur, per cent formalin, or
other disinfectant to prevent reinfec-
ton of the next cut. Cut twice sew
eral inches below where the blight
shows, as In spring the germs extend
much farther in than they show or
the outside.

Thousands Saved Counties.
As the result OF activities by the
state highway department in connec-

several Tennessee counties recently.
the bonds are now selling at figures
considerably higher than has prevailed

by this work alone has been able to

ding the county had failed to get a
bid at par, but when the department
got busy II bidders entered the con-
test and the bonds were sold at 10lA.
