by publishing the original orders.
Far from having decided TO get out,
however. Secretary Baker announced
yesterday afternoon that no new orders
had been given and, declaring that the

WINTER HEATING OF ORCHARDS
IMPRACTICAL

Because of the difficulties in heat
ing peach orchards in winter, horti-
culturalists at the Ohio Experiment
station advise growers to avoid such
operations by planting hardy varie-
ties and selecting favorable planting
sites. The exact temperature re.
quired to save the blossom buds in
extreme cold winter weather is not
known, as varieties differ in hardi-
ness and the same variety may show
some variation in resistance to cold
from year to year
Without this knowledge orchardists
in some cases may waste fuel, while
at other times buds may be frozen
because the fires do not keep the
temperature high enough. Watching
thermometers and keeping ires in
zero weather is trying work. Spring
orchard heating, however, has lone
been considered successful.
On suitable locations peach crops
may be secured annually if hardy
varieties are planted, these special
lists say. Winter heating is therefore
unnecessary in such cases.

HORSE IS KILLED
DELAWARE co. BOYS HAVE A
THRILLING RUNAWAY

Delaware, Dec. 2-When their
horse frightened at an auto truck the
other evening Herman Morris and
Edward Cockrell were thrown from
the rig into wire fence at the side
of the road. The boys were return
ing from Galena high school and met
the truck at the Galena bridge. The
frightened horse, after turning the rig
over and throwing the boys out, ran
through the bridge. The lines became
wrapped around the hub and pulled
the horse around, so that it fell on
one of the bridge braces. Its foot
caught in the braces and the hoof was
torn off. After running several yards
it was caught and killed.
The boys were not seriously hurt
though young Morris was cut about
the face by barbed wire.
The horse was valued at $125 and
belonged to U. C. Morris, father ol
Herman, who lives east of Maxtown

FURNACE STAG CANNOT TAKE
PLACE OF LIME

Recent tests conducted at the Ohio
Experiment station indicate that Stag
from blast furnaces is not as efficient
as limestones and lime for correcting
acidity in the soil. Basing his state
ments upon these tests, j. w. Ames,
station chemist, in the December
Monthly Bulletin, advises farmers not
to substitute Stag for any form Of
lime except in an experimental way.
The reason given for the inferior
ity of the Stag is that the calcium and
magnesium are combined as silicates,
and much larger amounts of this fur
mace by-product must be used than
are necessary with lime. In one test
at the experiment station an applica-
ton of eight tons of Stag per acre
was not as effective as four tons OF
limestone.
Furnace Stag is often confused with
basic Stag, also called Thomas Stag
as a carrier of phosphorus. Blast
furnace Stag does not contain more
than trace of this element.

WILD GARLIC KILLED BY SPRAY
ING WITH OIL

Fuel oil was found satisfactory by
farmers in Hamilton county last year
when used as a. spray against wild
garlic, which infested their grain
heldsN and pastures. Early spring
treatment before the garlic forms
heads is necessary in controlling the
pest. 3f
Bulblets commence to form in the
heads OF the garlic during April and
May in Ohio. April 15 to May ] for
southern counties and week later
for central and northern sections OF
the state appear as proper dates FOR
spraying. In all cases farmers hnd
that spraying is effective only when
done during period of two to three
weeks before the formation of heads.
When not checked the weed may
take full possession of the land Flour
is unfit for use when bulblets occur
in the grain, and milk and butter
have a characteristic garlicky odor
