CLEAN POTATO SEED.
Of Prime Importance In Saving This
Valuable Root Crop.

VI PFiWo lmportdhCo IN Saving MS
Valuable Root Crop.
An organized movement is now on in
Wisconsin to secure the cooperation
Of growers In the planting Of only
clean potato seed. The soils of Wis
consin have not been found to be in
any way affected with such dangers
as black wart and powdery scab, and
the leaders in this campaign are deter
mined, If possible, to keep such dis
eases out Of the state.
But in common with every other
large potato producing center Of the
country Wisconsin growers have GER
tain minor difficulties with which to
contend. Certain of these, however,
can be eliminated by careful field Sc
lection or roguing and by bin sorting.
AS the planting season approaches
1t is therefore highly desirable that
every grower determine whether his
stock meets the present standard,
which can be met In part at least by
proper selection.

Plan to Plant a Few Fruit Trees In the

We are told by those who are In a

chickens are lost each year owing to
the lack of shade, writes a correspond
ent In the National Stockman- Trees
may be purchased for such reasonable
prices that 1t is an easy matter for one
to acquire the necessary shade In the
poultry yard and at the same time add
greatly to the producing value of the
farm by purchasing a number Of fruit
trees and setting them out In the poul-
try yard. 1t will not be long before
one will have not only all the shade
required but fruit besides. Peach trees
are especially desirable for this pur-
pose. They are quick growers. and In
three years they should be In bearing.
Pear and apple trees are also good
shade trees.
In planting the young trees be sure
that you dig the holes sufficiently
large to allow the roots to spread out
and rest in their natural position and
deep enough to stand the same depth
as the tree stood in the nursery. Fill
in the surface soil around the roots.
Prune the apple and pear trees at the
time of planting, cutting out all the
weak, broken or bruised limbs.
Peach trees should be cut back to the
main trunk, then cut Off the main
trunk to within two feet of the ground.
Never put manure into the holes, and
be sure that the trees are set the prop
er distance apart

Dairy Economy.

Economy in production is the big

This Is a big world. and from one end
Of 1t to the other butter fat is eaten.
Dairying has not increased in proper
ton to the population. There is no
more likely to be an overproduction Of

GERMANY LOOKS
TOWARD CHANGE
IN WARS RULES

BERLIN. May 31.-That the Ger
man government in insisting on diplo-
matte negotiations with the United
States over submarine warfare and
the destruction Of the Lusitania, is
looking into the future and expects to
establish a foundation for the read
justment o. the international rules OF
warfare was the expression of opinion
current in official circles today.
Although not expressed in concrete
form by the foreign office, the Ger
man government Is ready to contend
that the introduction Of the submarine
and aeroplane in warfare and the &C.
ton of England in trying to crush this
nation by economic pressure must all
be considered in a new light. They
cannot be regulated. according to the
German view, by the laws OF the past.
The fact that the German reply to
President Wilson's note would not be
whole heartedly received in the Unit
ed States was discounted here. But
Foreign Minister Won Jaegow and his
advisors believe that Germany Is JUS
titled In attempting to establish a
basis of fact relative to the exact
character of the Lusitania" before
proceeding into the final stages of the
negotiations. If the line adopted by
the German foreign office is followed
it would require the exchange OF sew
eral notes before a final decision is
reached, and in the meantime her sub
marine warfare against hostile ship
ping will continue.
