SOME ADVANTAGES
IN STACKING GRAIN
Practice improves Quality and
Permits Early Flowing for
Crop of Ensuing Year.

The farmer in stacking grain ought
to select high spot, preferably en-
tirely off the field, which has natural
drainage but not far enough to make
useless hauling. Break up the sur
face and harrow it to finely pow
dered mulch, to keep the ground mois-
ture out of the stack. If possible, hold
the grain off the ground, giving as
much ventilation as possible. Your
own ingenuity will tell you how to do
this with the material at hand.
Start in the center with two bundles
precisely as you would build a shock,
laying up the bundles against the sides
of this shock until you have circle
as large as the stack you wish to
build, slanting the butts from the CEN
ter, the heads of each row fitting up
snugly to the heads of preceding row.
After you have built this fiat cone,
begin the second layer from the out
side, breaking joints" by laying the
bundles snugly In the hollows of the
first layer, heads in center. The main
purpose of the stack is to shed water,
and this should always be kept in
mind while building the stack.
Be careful to get the first four or
five layers very solid before you begin
to bulge" continuing the stack pre-
cisely as matched roof is built. Have
plenty of pitch to your bundles, laying
them with the short side up, always
building the middle high, but not so
high that the bundles will slide out Of
place on the outside row. Don't at
tempt to make your stacks too big or
too high, as it adds to the labor.
Gradually draw in the stack until it
makes a peak, placing your cap
sheaves at the top precisely the same
as you would on a shock to shed the
rain. Hold the capsheaf in place with
a strong cord or wire, weighted with
anything heavy enough to hold it down,
as protection against heavy wind.
If you prefer to build a long rick
instead of stack, the principle is
just the same. There is q good stack
er in every neighborhood, and it would
be a good plan for farmers clubs to
set date and help this man stack
until every man understands it thor
oughly. Be sure to make your stacks
as solid and secure as possible, or it
will be labor lost. A leaky stack is
worse than no stack at ell.
What Is the Use of Stacking?
1. 1t viii save grain and straw,
which might otherwise be spoiled in
the field, especially in wet weather.
2. The grain viii 60 through COM

PAY ATTENTION TO ORCHARD
Acre of Apple Trees viii Pay Better
Than Acre Of Corn-San Jose
Scale Is Destructive.

Is the orchard SOD bound? Put the
pillow into it.
If the plow cannot be used, take a
single spring-tooth harrow, put a big
team on it and it will do the business.
About midsummer SOW the ground
to clover. This is great soil renova-
tor.
Do not cultivate late in the season,
or the sap will keep the wood from
hardening before winter.
An acre of apple trees will pay bet
ter than an acre Of corn and does not
require one-fourth as much work
The San Jose scale, if it gets good
start in your orchard, will destroy ev-
cry tree on the place unless you put
up a stiff fight. No doubt about it.
Do not wait.
A clean, well-pruned orchard is a
sight to delight, and a joy to the
owner.
Will corn make a good crop without
attention after planting? No; then
why do you expect an orchard to
thrive without attention?
A good time to prune trees is right
after the first run of sap-along about
the middle of June.
A heavy loan is considered best for
black raspberries.
Never cut limb from a fruit tree
unless you know why you do it.
The disk is a better implement than
the plow for breaking up sod in the
orchard.
Unleached wood ashes sown broad
cast in the orchard will prove bene-

plete sweat, and will be superior in
quality to the grain threshed from the
shock.
3. Threshing is made considerably
easier, and nothing like the amount Of
help will be required, as in the case
of shock threshing, so that the total
cost will be practically equalized.
4. There is big crop this year, and
there are not enough threshers at
hand to thresh it, nor cars enough to
haul it for weeks or perhaps months,
and this will give you good storage
at absolutely no cost. 1t will also pre-
vent the market from being glutted
at one time, as is usually the case.
which may give you better prices for
your grain.
5. It will clear your field for early
blowing, which is one of the greatest
factors for increasing the wheat
yields.

Let Us Hone She Got One.

The following, which was overheard
quite by accident, clearly goes to show
that some people must appreciate that
their pet dogs are really human. The
incident was in connection with the
entering of the little pet dog in the
dog show.
"Do you have a ribbon for each
dog?" was asked by the lady as she
fondled her pet.
1--WE have ribbons for all the win
ners," was the reply.
"Well, don't know. You see, loot
sic here is so sensitive. If entered
her l know it would break her heart
If she did not get a ribbon" -Brock'

'Dr Garfield and Mr.. Hinkle were

by Special Deputy Game Warden w.
Q, Whitsett The arrest was made
near Mr.. Whitsetts home He was
using a lantern in going about his
chores at the barn, He heard some
one shooting in the direction OF a
place known as the spring, He went
to the place as quickly as he could
but II was so dark he could not see
any one. Coming TO stop about as
yards from where he thought the
hunters were he waited for develop
ments, In few minutes a flock OF
ducks flew over him in the direction
of the springs, While he was watch
ing them two objects he knew to be
men raised from the sage brush and |
each shot two times at the ducks.
"Whitsett remained where he was
for few minutes to see il he had all |
the hunters located. One of the men,
after shooting, jumped across n little |
stream and began looking in the grass |
for something. The other man re- |
manned standing near where he had |
shot and was never out of Mr., Whit
sett's sight for an instant. He proved |
TO be Dr. Garfield. The other man
proved to be Mr.. Hlnkle.
"0ther witnesses were found who |
told OF having heard the same num-
Der OF shots as reported by Mr.. Whit
sett and at the same time and place, |
fully corroborating every statement
made by Mr., whitsett.
The defendants claimed they were
not shooting ducks and had not been
for more than an hour but that they |
were waiting there for an auto to
come after them" !

LONDON, March l6.-Under the
auspices Of the workers war emer-
gency national committee. Arthur
Henderson. NJ. p, presiding. a mass
meeting was held here TO discuss the
prices OF food and fuel A resolution
urging the government to comman-
deer the stock OF wheat in the coun-
try AT fair price for resale TO the
public was adopted. The price OF
these resales should not exceed 40
shillings per quarter, II was declared.
The meeting also urged action 10
control more ships to bring wheat
from Argentina, Russia and Canada
and to guarantee a fixed price for
the 1916 crop.
James Andrew Seldom. chairman OF
the British Trades Union congress OF
1914, addressing the meeting, ad-
vanced the argument that II the gov
ernment had acted the same way
with wheat as II has with sugar
there would have been no increase in
its price. The speaker ascribed in
flated prices to three causes-first,
inaction on the part Of the govern
ment: second. gambling in the wheat
markets OF the world. and. third. the
criminal exploitation and robbery by
the shipping ring in this country"
Subsequently the meeting adopted
resolutions calling on the govern
ment to commander all supplies OF
coal and distribute them to consul
mers through municipal and cooper
atiye agencies The resolutions also
recommended that railway facilities
be pooled and operated in such
way as TO obtain the greatest possible
economic advantages.
