While the best results are usually
obtained by completely preparing the
soil and cultivating it for few years
after planting, farm owners should
be aware of the possibility Of start
ing hundreds Of young walnuts in
their wood lots and elsewhere at the
expense or only a little labor. This
will be good step in the process Of
securing useful and money making
trees on parts Of the farm which
would perhaps otherwise be waste

IDA TARsELL SHOWS
THE WAY OUT OF

In the February Woman's Home
Companion Ida Tarbell has an exceed.
ingly interesting article on the uni
versal dislike that women show to
ward household work, in which she
says: u
1T is not ours, with all their obvi'
Gus disadvantages, which tip the scale
against housework. 1t Is the atmos
phere OF servility which envelopes
1t. It ia an occupation around which
still clings the marks Of the old reg
ime. It is one OF the great occupa'
tons into which the employer has
been unable to infuse Democratic
feeling. The best OF us feel our su.
periority to our employee, and in spite
of all effort resent anything like an
equal human footing. The girl who
has caught some sense Of the dignity
OF labor and who is struggling for
respect and recognition in others can
not endure this. She knows that her
chances Of social life and of marriage
are both limited II she Is known to be
/, houseworker. She goes into fac
| 'ory to escape this.
Does she see any way out? Often
| she does and her answers are almost
prayer to the employers to heed and
cooperate. An eight-hour day-or at
/ least hours so arranged that she may
have some social life, and use the op.
portunities for advancement she so
craves--a place to entertain her
friends; consideration; kindness and
politeness in treatment; more priv.
leges;' cooperation These are the
burden of her suggestions. II these
things were possible in housework.
the impression that !, at least, get
from these questionaires, is that there
are multitudes of self-respecting and
ambitious girls who would train them
selves for 1t and who believe that
they can make 1t respected"

amounts to $50 and 545 holes per
acre for the two spacings. For small
areas. or along fence rows and high
ways, the spacing should be about 8
feet in the row, unless permanent
shade is desired. in which case the
distance should be 20 feet during the
early period of growth and subse

Plant Black Walnut.
Desirable Tree For the Wood Lot

Directions For Planting

Because of the very high lasting
qualities of its wood and the moder.
ately rapid rate Of growth OF the tree
In good locations, black walnut Is one
OF the few most desirable trees to
plant on the farm, Small patches
OF rough, quilted, or unused land
about the farm and narrow strips
along fence rows and highways or
corners OF barnyards and stock lots
make ideal places for planting this
valuable tree. The method is sim.

nuts makes this year most favor
able time to begin work along this
line. The region where walnut grow.
ing is practicable extends from SOU
thern New England west to the Gen.
trail States and south to South Caro-
lima and along the northern portions
OF the Gulf States to Oklahoma. The
finest growth takes place in the rich
u oves of the lower Appalachians and
over the Ohio and central MISSISSIPPI
pi basins.
The black walnut tree is compar'
atively free from insect attack, par
ticularly the wood. The price OF
black walnut lumber in recent years
has been consistently high. Another
factor to be considered is the rapid
ly diminishing supply OF walnut trees
over practically its entire range in
the United States. due to recent cut
ting In order to meet the demand for
gun stock material. The tree yields
durable wood which may be used for
posts and for wide variety Of pur
poses about the farm, in case 1t is
not sold In the lumber market.
In order to succeed well, walnut
requires a rather good grade Of soil
hence no attempt should be made to
plant It on poor. thin soil or on hot
dry exposures. Favorable situations
for rapid development are on strong
limestone soils, deep alluvial soils
and stony loan soils along the mar

bulletin:
mot only must the farmer have

have something to attract him to
