WEEDS GROWING IN ORCHARD
Noxious Plants Allowed to Utilize
Much Of Moisture-Dry Spells
Evaporated Remainder.

(By c. ". RAPP. Department of Horti-
culture Oklahoma A. and NJ College.
Stillwater)
During past years dry seasons have
spelled disaster for many of the fruit
growers of the state. Due to careless
methods of farming, the orchards were
allowed to grow up in weeds. These
utilized much of the moisture and the
long, dry spells evaporated most of the
rest. Fruit either dried up or fell or
was too small and bitter for any prac-
teal use. In many cases the trees
died.
The neglect during the one dry year
caused the loss of orchards that had
been built up during many years.
Thorough orchard cultivation is the
only successful method of combating
the effects of dry spell. Good and
thorough tillage will keep down all
weeds and will form good dust
mulch, which will largely prevent
evaporation.

should be said, is not recommended un-
der any circumstances. When winter
rye is to be used for pasturage, It
should be sown early in September at
about four pecks per acre. When
grown for grain it should be seeded
about the middle of October at about
three pecks per acre. The two varie-
ties that promise the best yields are
the Kansas and the IvanOv.
Oats is the only spring grain that
has proved successful. Next to Win
ter wheat it is perhaps the best small
grain crop. While the yields are not
large, it has never failed entirely to
make grain. The highest yields hive
been obtained from the rust-proot
group, which are really winter oats,
but in the Panhandle are grown from
spring seeding. The crop is usually
sown about March and five pecks per
acre have given the best results. All
varieties shatter more or less and
should be harvested as soon as ripe.
Prose- may be sown in the latter part
of May or in June at the rate OF ~
pounds of seed per acre. This crop is
harvested with a grain binder and
threshed the same as the other small
grains.
The other small grain crops now
grown in the Panhandle include win
ter barley, spring wheat, winter spelt
and winter emmer. None of these have
demonstrated superiority in any inn
portant respect over the four crops rec
commended in the bulletin and there
seems TO be no good reason, therefore,
why they should be grown. In feeding
value emmer and spelt are similar to
oats and are used for much the same
purpose. The straw, however, is Of lit
tie value and the yields of neither Of
these crops are as great as from the
better varieties of oats.
With all the small grain crops in this
section there IS considerable loss from
smut each year. The greater part OF
this loss can be prevented by treating
the seed with formaldehyde solution.
The different methods of treatment are
described in detail iE Farmers Bulle-
tin 73S.

KEEP CAREFUL MILK RECORD
Only Positive Way to Tell What Each
Cow Is Doing-Test Should Be
Made Frequently.

The only way to be sure which COWS
really do pay is by keeping careful
record of the amount of milk given
by each cow in the herd. and the
amount of butter fat her milk contains
as shown by the Babcock test. The
test should be made fairly frequently,
but the milk given and the feed used
should be recorded every day.

DidHleu Iooi eHefIy! fledSe, l1nplore
you cease firing and leave few of the
enemy for someone else to shoot"
alright" Captain Shaw had just as
well have said, "I'll tell the fellows to
quit but it's a darned shame to spoil
their fun that way-you ought to have
known there wasn't enemy enough in
that Connecticut bunch to go around
among all the Idaho gang! The next
time kindly see that there is about
three times as much enemy provided
so it'll be sort of interesting"
NOT ENOUGH TO GO ROUND.
Then he could have turned to Com
pany l and remarked:
| Boys 1 hate to do it but guess We'll
have to quit firing and leave some of
the enemy for the other fellows-you
see the way we're annihilating them
there isn't going to be near enough to
go around"
OF course in that case Company
! would have very likely ceased firing
and remarked, soto voce, for it isn't
polite to say things like that in pub
lie:
Jaw, hell Just as we were gettin'
nicely started"
So that's the way, II was all around
the Second Idaho men captured and
annihilated the whole invading army
and Nogales is safe. That's why there
are, technically speaking, dead men
smeared all over the nice green hills
out toward Patagonia and rivers of
blood, at least imaginary rivers of
blood, are swishing and roaring and
| foaming down all the little canyons
and ravines and draws in that neigh
borhood.
And without any joking but as SER
ious as a Dunkard prayer meeting it
was the best maneuver ever pulled off
along the border and the Second Idaho,
as usual, won the war game.
Speaking of war "games"
While the Second Idaho was theoret-
ically slaughtering the First Connecti-
cut and shooting blank cartridges to
make believe they were killing an in
vading army a few miles south of the
American line-at that very moment
a band of Yaquis was actually and
really butchering men and women and
children. Yes, while the American SOL
diers were playing at war-a few miles
away savages were in truth releasing
all Of the horrors of hell on helpless
people!

Nation is Facing Paper Famine
Prices Double Within Past Few Months

The following article taken from
the st. Louis Republic Of last Sunday
will enlighten our readers as to the
situation this nation is facing in re-
gard to print paper. 1t will be noted
that the speaker, Mr.. Collins, vice
president Of the largest paper house
in the world, says that In some in
stances newspapers have had to sus-
pend publication. We reprint this
article with the hopes that every
subscriber of The Gate City will read
it and better understand the serious
situation that confronts the publisher.
"The United States is facing pa
per shortage that is being felt in
every line, and prices of paper have
doubled and trebled within the last
few months.
Print paper that is manufactured
from weed pulp has scared in price
until many newspapers in smaller
cities have had to reduce the size of
their papers, and in some instances
have been compelled to cease publ
