ing was done at different seasons of
the year and upon wounds of various
ages.
From the results of this experiment
as a whole, it is concluded that the
dressings commonly applied to prun-
ing wounds retard rather than acceler-
ate the healing of the wounds. The
effects are the same whether the Dress
ings are applied when the wounds are
made or some weeks later, when the
cut surface has dried out. The effect
Of the dressings used are so injurious
to peach wood that wounds on peach
trees should never be covered. For
sprayed orchards at least, it appears
unnecessary to apply dressings to
wounds under four or five inches In
diameter to prevent the entrance Of
fungi. 1t remains to be proved wheth-
er dressings have any real value in
covering large wounds. The injury
caused by dressings probably offsets
or even overbalances any possible pro-
lection against decay.
OF the materials used, shellac was
the least injurious and seemed to exert
stimulating influence upon wounds
for the first season. Shellac adhered
to the wounded surfaces least we'll Of
all. Avenarious carbolineum and vel.
low ochre caused so much injury that
they should never be used as Dress
ings. Coal tar in addition to causing
injury, disappeared rapidly, either
through absorption or evaporation.
Tissues injured by using white lead
and white zinc practically recovered
from the injury by the end of the sea-
son. OF the protective substances
used, white lead is considered the best.

Spring suits lie uppermost in the
mind of almost every woman just now,
and each one earnestly hopes to make
a happy choice for herself. 1t is not
subject to be easily disposed of, es-
pecially for the American woman, who
has reputation to maintain in this
matter. All the world comedies her
suits to be the best ever, and she
knows how to wear them, for she is
essentially "tailor-made" personality.
But this spring there are some innova-
ttons in styles, and uneasy lies the
head that is considering them!
One of these new claimants for con-
sideration is illustrated here. 1t has
the distinction of originality, and it is
very good looking. The skirt is box
plated all around; the narrow plaits
lying edge to edge about the waist line.

Do not plan a larger garden than
you can keep clean and we'll titled.
A small garden will supply an abun-
dance of vegetables for large fam
lily. After the soil has been we'll en-
riched and we'll fitted we are ready
to plant. If the plan has been well
worked out all that is necessary is to
plant each variety ut the proper time
in the right place.
The family garden should be planted
to suit the needs Of the family and no
two families will agree us to the
amount Of each kind Of vegetables to
grow. The time to plant varies so
largely with the locality that no ad-
vice as to dates Of planting is offered.
If we will study out the time 1t re-
quires each crop to mature we may be
able to plan other crops to take their
place as soon as they are consumed.
A few crops like blood beets, egg
plants, melons, onions, peppers, win
ter squash and tomatoes require a
whole season for their maturity. 9th
er crops like lettuce, radishes, early
beets, summer squash and string
beans, will mature early enough to
allow other crops to be grown on the
same soil after they are gone.
The great object in doing this is to
keep the soil from growing rank
growth of weeds later in the season.
Get interested in the garden early
by sending for the various seed cata-
logues and garden implement cata-
logues advertised in the papers.
Good seed means success, and good
garden implements are pleasure to
handle.

shorter and still hold it's own as good
style, for women are very reluctant to
lengthen the tailored skirt.
In the coat, which is half length,
box-plaited skirt is set on to n plain
body with n heavy covered cord. Braid
ed buttons set close together fasten it
at the front, extending from the throat
to a point below the bust line. The
narrow, plain girdle of the material,
looped at the front, plays its part in
the adjustment Of the coat to the
figure. The sleeves are long and the
collar very wide and quite plain.
Beautiful braiding in the conven.
tional palm-leaf pattern is put on in
braid of contrasting color. This is a
novel feature in the suit and is import
ant as any other item in its makeup.
The success of this model will depend
upon it's perfect adjustment to the
figure. 1t has everything to recon.
mend it.

Provide an abundance Of plantfood
If you would have success with the
family vegetable garden.
Stable or barnyard manures are the
best fertilizers at all times. CONNER
cial plantfoods are excellent in their
places, especially when it is desired
to force some of the early varieties
Of vegetables, but their use requires
that the soil be in high state of cul-
tivation and that the gardener have
an expert knowledge of their uses and
functions.
To properly prepare garden plow
under heavy application of manure
in the fall and then in the spring har-
rowing in another heavy coat Of we'll
rotted manure. After putting on what
we think is enough we double the
amount and the chances are we will
have it about right.
Constant cultivation should be the
rule, for this will keep the soil in an
ideal condition, physically, for the
roots to grow in, besides keeping the
weeds in check.
Cultivate early and persistently and
keep the weeds in check. Allowing
the weed seeds to germinate and quick
ly destroying them early in the season
will save large amount Of work dur.
| ing the summer.
Eliminate all of the old-fashioned
beds and plant everything in long
rows, so that the most of the cultiva
ton can be done with horse. There
need not be an unpleasant amount Of
hand work if properly worked with {
| horse and cultivatOr.

Georgette crepe and crepe de chine
reign together in the realm of blouse
fashions, the most favored of all ma
terials for the lovely new spring mod
els. Crepe de chine demonstrates that
it may be used for equal effective
ness for both tailored and costume
blouses, but georgette is a medium
that designers revel in for developing
all the dressier bodiccs. In tailored
and sports styles crepe de chine has a
rival in silk jersey. Just glance at
blouses of any kind reveals the fact
that light colors are shouldering
white in point of popularity. Among
voile blouses white predominates, but
in organdie there is a more than lib
eral sprinkling of yellow, rose and blue
models. .
Color is the rule in georgette
blouses. A wonderfully pretty model
is shown in the picture made of plain
navy blue georgette, combined with
broad stripe in navy and white. This
is broken by a narrow figured stripe
in paisley colorings. A panel Of the
plain navy. widening toward the bot
tom, is let in ut the back and front.
A convertible collar and deep, turn
back cuffs of the navy georgette are
decorated with white silk machine
stitching and Frerch knots. Three

STOCK TO INCREASE
GRAIN PRODUCTION
Soil Is Maintained in Higher State
of Fertility Where Animals
Are Produced.

(By c. "A. WILSON, Kentucky Expert
Y ment Station.)
It may be shown in some instances
that the selling Of the crops off the
farm for one year will bring in more
money than the feeding Of the crops
to live stock on the farm, but the his
tory of agriculture shows that the soil
is maintained in higher state Of fer
tility in those counties and communi-
ties where live stock production pre-
walls. Again, live stock production is
not opposed necessarily to the sale Of
grains and other marketable crops
from the farm. Live stock on the
farm will increase the crop production
per acre through the conservation of
soil fertility. Records Of the more
progressive stock farms show that
they actually sell more crops than the
average farm.
