CAUSES OF FAILURE
WITH CLOVER PLANT
Lack Of Proper Food in Soil, Acid
ity and Late Freezes Are
Among Reasons Given.

The spring IL usually regarded as
the best season for sowing clover, and
1t Is likely that this spring will be no
exception to,the rule that many BUSH
els Of costly seed will be sown and the
seed lost.
The usual causes Of failure are from
a lack Of proper plantfood in the soil
to nourish the young plants, acidity Of
the soil, late freezes killing the young
plants list after they come up. or the
nurse crop smothers the young plants.

RAvAGES OF WORMS
CAUSE GREAT LOSS
infested Hogs Make Gains Slowly,
If At AIl-IoWa Station
Gives Good Remedy.

A great loss on all farms where
hogs are raised results from the raw
ages Of worms. Great as are the
losses from hog cholera, It would not
be very wild assertion to state that
even greater losses accrue from
worms.
Hogs infested with worms gain slow
ly. If at all, using up most Of their
energy in coughing instead of using 1t
for growth and fattening. Further
more. they are kept in such a weak
ened condition that they are more sus-
ceptible to diseases, including hog
cholera, and it may be said with much
confidence that hog worms are the
forerunners Of disease.
They cause disastrous results only
where they are permitted to go un-
molested. It is not a difficult matter
to rid herd Of hogs Of them, and
many useful remedies have been. rec
commended. The Iowa experiment sta
ton has recently offered a simple
remedy that will expel worms from
hogs with much certainty. The for
mula is:
Santonin, five grains; areca nut,
three drains; calomel, three grains,
and sodium bicarbonate, one dram.
This amount constitutes a dose for q
1OO-pound pig. Twice MS much should
be used for 2O0-pound pig, while half
as much should be used for 50-pound
pig.
Success from the use Of this for
nula depends upon Withholding from
the pigs all feed for at least Is hours
before feeding the mixture. To make
certain that all worms are expelled,
the dose should be repeated in a week
or ten days. II all Of the ingredients
cannot be secured at the drug store, a
substitute in the form Of seven grains
Of santonin and seven grains Of Gallo
mel for each 100 pounds Of liveweight
may be used with success, admins
tering it in the same manner suggested
for the complete formula.

Proper action in the draft horse is
important, according to David Gray,
assistant in animal husbandry in the
Kansas State Agricultural college. Size
and power are of little value II tho
horse has not enough agility to ham
die his big weight in a manner yield
ing the greatest efficiency.
'Action of the draft horse should
be clean, bold, and rather stylish" said
Mr.. Gray. in moving, the feet should
be carried forward and back in a
straight line, without padding, wing
ing, or other irregularity Of gait. In
order to get the best and greatest
stride with the least energy 1t Is alb
solutely necessary that the feet move
straight and smooth without defects
Of gait. I
"knee action in the draft horse Is
not Of great Importance. A long stride
which covers considerable ground Is
much more important than high knee
action. as ability to cover ground Is
what is wanted.

TIMELY REMARKS ON
SPRAY PREPARATION
Power Pump Should Be Used #
Best Results Are Expected
High Pressure Needed.

| The following timely remarks are
taken from letter sent out to super
intendents Of Ohio state institutions
by 8. W. Moore, horticulturist Of the
Ohio board Of administration.
"The power pump is the pump to
use If results are wanted. The argu-
ment used at some of the institutions
by those in charge Of the work has
been that there is plenty Of hand
power or labor power and It IL eco
.nomical to use 1t. This sounds well,
but If the practical orchardist were
consulted, he would say that the
hand pump, aside from the labor of
running 1t, is an expensive PROPOSE
ton, as 1t is almost impossible to
maintain the pressure necessary ef-
fectively and economically to cover
oil parts Of the tree or plant; and
when all parts are not covered, the
application will count for little.
Success depends first upon the
plicatiOn, which means thoroughness.
The thoroughness that is necessary
can only be obtained with a heavy
pressure all the time; not $50 or 200
pounds for awhile, then 70 or 80
pounds. Such a pressure will not
force the liquid into all the cracks
and crevices; and where some are
missed, scale and fungous diseases
will be found lurking. ready again to
take possession Of the plant as
soon as weather conditions are favor
able.
If anything is to be done along
this line, 1t is time the spray outfits
were ordered. Spray material should
be on the way soon, as the clean up
or dormant spray should be applied
before growth begins. This u true

leaving narrow streaks, like ribbons Of
gray floating above the waters rim.
Dappled gray clouds in masses chung
to the zenith. The slowly setting sun
began to paint Its own heroic picture.
The ribbons Of clouds changed from
gray to pearl, from pearl to amethyst

the lake shone like . mirror OF pol

in faint glow Of red. We discov-
cred that what seemed to be islands

The knight bounded down the stairs

the bride, kissing her Q hundred times
and more. Then he sent for q chaplain
and led her to the chapel Of hfs house
where they were married forthwith.
In the meantime. there was wild

reason that your daughter has given

The old lord listened with wonder
and anger. But he took thought to

all.the company rode peacefully to the

Li0nlike March
PleaSeS Farmers

The month of March acted up like
a lion all the way through despite
the time-honored axiom. The month
entered with snow and ended with
rain. The minimum temperature
was 1 5 above on the 1st and 21 above
on the 21st, neither of which is very
lamblike. The rainfall of 2,35 inches
brings up the seasonal precipitation
and assures plentiful supply of
moisture for the summer. The high
mountains have more snow than at
this date for many years past No
blossoms are out as yet and the sea-
son is six weeks late, much to the
delight of the farmers. The frost
will not be serious menace this
year. The weather report of Cooper

ization.
Professor Larsen emphasized the
need of better seed potatoes and dis
cussed fully methods of producing
this stock. He urged seed treatment
against disease, favoring the corro-

lin. Corrosive sublmate is recon-
mended for scab and Rhizoctonia

Erroneous Report

An erroneous report has been cir
culated to the effect that the city
had refused to grant the installation
of the necessary pipe to provide city
water for the bungalow and gardens,
lawns, etc, of the home which Miss
Chamberlain plans to build on new
ly acquired five-acre tract on the hills
in the southern part of the city. AS
matter of fact" says Mayor Lam
kin, the city has never refused wa
ter to anyone in the city limits" The
city will not, however, guarantee a
full head of water for irrigation dur
ing the middle of the day in the dry
season and never has guaranteed this
to any of the consumers in the high
er parts of town. However the wa
ter service last year was excellent
and will doubtless remain so. The
city is entering into a contract with
Miss Chamberlain to furnish water.
The report Of refusal was brought
to light in letter from George A.
Watson of klamath Falls, who stated
that he owned tract adjoining the
one mentioned and intended to build
a home on it some day
