ASHES IN THE GARDEN

Ashes indirectly increase the avail
able nitrogen of the organic matter in
the soil. Besides the potash ashes
contain other ingredients which are OF
value to plants, namely, about or ,
per cent of phosphorc acid, a little
magnesia, and great deal of lime
The Importance of these last-named
elements is made plain by the esteem
in which leached ashes are held by
some of our farmers, although from
leached ashes all but a very small por-
ton of the potash has been washed
out The farmer who wishes to restore
potash to the soil by the use of ashes
should take great care that they are
Kept dry and are not allowed to leach
at all. Many housewives save their
house ashes and leach out the potash
for use in making soap, They may
now have an additional reason for con
serving them, namely, their increased
value as grain fertilizer. But as ha.
just been said, ashes to be used for
the Improvement of the soil should not
be permitted to leach.

FINE WHEAT

Two years ago Mr.. Maionchi, of the
Plummer ranch, obtained a small
package of wheat from the California
Experiment Station, which he planted,
and last year again planted the pro-
duct. This year he has about
100 bushels of the best wheat ever
grown in the district, and will sow all
of it. The wheat is said to be what is
called the Cherl, and is of Asiatic
origin, imported by the Federal Agri-
cultural Department, and last year
yielded about 80 bushels to the acre
with ordinary field culture. The kerr
nels are extremely hard, SO much so
that the rollers in the local mills can
not reduce it to regular -four consist
ency, and sample is being sent to
the State University Agronomy De
partment to be tested for milling quail
tiles, where it is expected it will es-
tablish high record and prove of the
very best milling value.

DON'T LIKE COMMENTS
Wabuska. Feb. |. ]


Ed. Times-Your comments on the
case against the Wabuska boys think
were uncalled for as they may have
a tendency to prejudice the case. Your
not beng acquainted with them and
not knowing the circumstances and
conditions of the affair seem to make
comments out of place. Hearsay is
very unreliable and as for overtures
and intimidation | think it is all i'm
aginary and cannot be traced to any
reliable source. 1t is also the opn-
ion that there is exaggeration Of the
great number of cattle that have been
stolen in this valley, and this report
was probably made to you to keep
outside hay buyers out by those who
desired to buy hay here at low price.
AS for the boys will say that all but
one are boarding where they work
and had no use for beef themselves
and were never known to sell or give
any away, nor has there been suspic-
on of their having done so.
Subscriber.
The Times has no inclination I'd try
this case, and any comments it may
make will be for the benefit of the
cmmunity at large and no individual,
corporation or association.

APPLE TREE BORER

The hathead borer is very de-
structive pest, 1t is a conservative
estimate that so per cent of healthy
and properly planted trees which
die soon after setting out are killed
by the larvae of these small, active,
c'vper-colored beetles. Young trees
of almost every variety are attacked,
especially if set out near woodlands
containing oak, which seems to the
favorite host, and from which the Dor
ers breed out in large numbers. After
these larvae have gained entrance to
the tree, no external sprays or appli-
cations are satisfactory, and the only
course of treatment is personal atten-
ton to each infested tree. Preventive
methods are more successful. If a
thick coating of some harmless sub
stance is applied to the truaks and
larger limbs OF young trees, it will act
as a repellant against the female de
string to deposit her eggs. Thick
whitewash painted or sprayed on the
trees acts as good repellant Ii the
appearance of whitewashed trees is
Objectionable, the addition of little
lampblack will tone down the brilliant
white to gray, still leaving the caus-
tic lime unaltered. Thick soap washes
are also recommended for this treat
ment

VIGILANCE
NEEDED FOR SUCCESS IN
POULTRY RAISING

We read very clever article few
days ago under the caption, DO the
Hens Pay?" and we were impressed
with the closing sentence, at is in
taking advantage of the fact that most
people are careless and neglectful with
their poultry profit"
The above is a statement of an exist
ing condition, and its truth can hardly
be underestimate How many of us
can take this truth home to ourselves
and feel that we have left undone
many things, that, if we had been a
little more careful, would have put
dollars into our pockets.
We have said many times, and we
repeat it again, that careful attention
to details is the foundation of success
in the poultry business, while neglect
of the small things is certain, sooner
or later to be followed by complete
failure.
1t must be borne in mind that the
most mental duties in connection with
poultry culture are necessity and a
part of the business and when we in
any manner neglect the daily round of
duties that we call the little things,
and put them off from day to day, they
are all the time growing in magnitude
Many of the little things do not APP
pear worthy of notice at the time if
neglected work havoc in the flock
We remember one instance in our
experience We had divided brooder
of young chicks into two flocks and
placed them in the same yard but in
separate houses. In one we had a
rough board floor, while in the other
we made the floor of some old tongue
and grooved stuff that we had on
hand. AT that time we noticed the
birds having the house with the rough
board floor were growing more rapid
ly and seemed to be doing much better
than those in the house i'll which the
| floor was made of tongue and groove
lumber They were healthier and more
hardy to a degree that was very no.
ticeable and we were at a loss to un-
derstand the reason, as all things were
apparently equal. After a time, how
ever, there was such a marked differ
cnce that we were compelled to under
stand that something was wrong, and
we began an investigation. We ex-
amined the chicks in both pens very
carefully but we found no lice. We
cleaned the houses with scrupulous
care, but without beneficial results.
and finally concluding that there
might be mites in the tight floor of the
house of the weaker lot, we took out
board of the floor. We were rude
ly ADVISED of the cause of the trouble,
for we found seething mass of red
mites between every board of the
tongue and groove floor. These night
marauders were simply sucking the life
and blood from the chicks while they
slept We Immediately destroyed and
burned the coop.
This is simple illustration of how
necessary is eternal vigilance in raising
poultry.-Chas. McAllister in Reliable
Poultry Journal

no show that over 1900 carloads of

GENERAL FARM NOTES

Every farmer should raise a hog for
every member of his family and some
to sell.
Farmers should feed more grains
and less hay to their horses during
the winter.
In the fields big team makes

swath they cut.
A hog that can be fattened while
young will be the most profitable one
to breed.

REVELATI0NSOF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRH5ON

] of our absence to advantage | am sorry I was so rough,' she ] said to me. Her manner had the ] effect of ignoring Dicky. I felt that ! for some reason she still distrusted ; his motives although assured of his reliability. ''I suppose l ought to be l thankful Grace has this chance, but it's all so different to what I've al- 1 ways been used to-
 1T am sure you will approve of it ] all when you knew what the work , really is,'' 1 heart myself assuring 1 her. If your sister wishes to pursue l her art studies I can hardly imagine a better opportunity for her than this One.'
 ! "Oh, you do not know how that re- l lieVes my mind,' she said, shaking my hand warmly. I thought l de- tected the faintest glimpse of smile upon Miss Draper's face l wondered if secretly she was amused by the contrast between my words and what was inwardly feeling. I suspected that she was uncannilv conscious of my sentiments toward her.
 ''When do you wish me to begin work? Miss Draper asked Dicky
 1T will drop you a postal, notify ing you a day or two ahead of time, '' he returned.
 We went out of the house and down the path to the gate before picky spoke.
 That was awfully decent of you Madge, to square things with Mrs. German like that. l appreciate it, I assure you."
 Ut was nothing" I said dispiritedly. I felt suddenly tired and old But I wish you would do something for me, Dicky.''
 Name it, and it is yours.' Dicky spoke grandiloquently.
 '"Eake me home We can see the harbor another time I really feel too tired to do any more today"
 Dicky opened his mouth, evidently to reminud me that my fatigue was of sudden development, but closed it again, and turned in silence toward the railroad station.
 We had a silent journey back Neither Dicky nor I spoke except to exchange the veriest comm places. We reached home about o'clock, to Katie's surprise.
 ''I'n hurry, get dinner" she said, evidently much Hurried.
 Were not very hungary, Katie,' I SC id. Some cold meat and bread and butter, those little potato cakes you make so nicely, some sliced bananas for MT. Graham, and some coffee-that will be sufficient" never wished to see or hear of food again The silent journey home, added to the events of the day, had brought on one of my ugly morbid moods.
