MULCH!NG OF MUCH BENEFIT
Where Barnyard Manure Is Not Avail
able Coarse Straw Will Answer
!, Purpose Satisfactorily.

! Mulch the orchard, do not allow it
ito go through the winter without q
cover. A mulch helps in 10000 ways,
the benefits are so evident there is
mo use to enumerate them.
! Mulch with barnyard manure if you
have it, if not, coarse straw will an
swer, but far better still is to grow
the mulch on the orchard, let that be
either clover, peas, beans, vetch, rye,
oats, wheat, or if all these fail, mulch
with weeds.
Don't neglect this important work.
Soil should not be left bare through
the winter, much less the orchard.

CATERPILLARS OF THE FALL
Worms Feed GregariousIy on Foliage
of Apple, Pear and Ounce
Destroy by Burning.

The caterpillars of the fall web
worm construct tents and feed gregari-
ously. The tent is large and loosely
woven, and the caterpillars feed only
on the leaves that are enclosed in the
web. When the supply of leaves with
in is exhausted, the web is enlarged
to take in more, and, in this way, the
entire top of young tree may be
webbed over and defoliated. The fall

PROTECT YOUNG APPLE TREES
Grass, Weeds and Litter Should Be
Removed to Prevent Mice From
Having Nesting Place.

( AS mice and rabbits are likely to
girdle young apple trees during the
winter months, the horticultUristS Of
the Nebraska College of Agriculture
say that all grass, weeds and litter
should be removed from the base Of
the trees to prevenG the mice FROM
having a nesting place. Three or
four cornstalks tied securely around
the young trees will prevent rabbits
from grawing the bark Of the trunks.
The stalks should be removed il the
ispring.

LATE POTATO BLIGHT SPRAY
Work Should Begin as Soon as Plants
Arc Six Inches High and Continue
at Intervals.

The weather conditions which favor
the spread Of late potato blight are a
humid, still atmosphere with a tenn
perature around 70 degrees F. Above
Is F. and below so F. there Is prac-
tically no termination Of the blight
spores. Since spraying for late blight
Is 8. preventive rather than q curative
measure, spraying should begin as soon
as the plants are six inches high and
should continue at intervals of one or
two weeks, depending upon weather
conditions until near the time Of ma
turity.
The effectiveness Of spraying as a
preventive depends upon the thorough
ness with which it is done. 1t is essen
tial that the whole plant be kept con-
stantly covered with the mixture If
the blight spores n to be prevented
from finding a place Of entrance into
its surface.
The wheels Of the sprayer do not
seem to injure the vines sufficiently to
be 4 source Of apprehension, even
when they are large and cover the
ground, as is often the case late in the
season.

ESTIMATE OF DAYS FLOWING
Time Required to Pillow an Acre De-
ponds on Size of PloW and Num-
Der of Horses Used.

Farmers frequently want to know
how much land can be plowed in a day
and how much work it requires to
break an acre. Records at the Missouri
College Of Agriculture on 2,122 acres OF
land show that it required 3.4 hours OF
man labor and 9.3 hours Of horse labor
for each acre. Of course, the time re-
quired to plow an acre will depend on
the size Of the pillow and the number
of horses used. A four-horse gang
pillow with two Pinch bottoms will aV-
erage about 4.12 acres a day Of 9.6
hours when it is running six inches
deep. The same pillow running eight
inches deep will break a quarter of an
acre less. A three-horse sulky with q
Il or 16-inch bottom will average about
rs acres at a six-inch depth, and
about 2 acre less for the eight
inch depth. A two-horse 14-inch walk
ing pillow will break about LIS acres a
day at q six-inch depth and about Z
acre less at the eight-inch depth.

TO FERTILIZE TUBERS
Use of Barnyard Manure and Acid
Phosphate Recommended as Ideal
by Ohio Station.

Selection Of q good clover sod where
potatoes have not grown for at least
five years, and the use Of barnyard
manure with acid phosphate are given
by the Ohio experiment station as
ideal conditions for fertilizing pota-
toes. After % years Investigations
with this crop the experiment station
advises farmers to pillow under II to
16 tons of manure per acre if plenty
is available, and then to apply about
300 pounds of acid phosphate per acre
as a surface dressing. If manure is
scarce four or five tons per acre may
be used, and then 400 pounds of acid
phosphate along with 100 pounds Of nj
trate of soda will yield about the
same results. These experiments have
shown that fertilizer should be spread
over all the land and not confined to
the potato rows, for in this way the
potato roots spread out more widely
and succeeding crops make better use
of what the potatoes ledve.

A WISE AND FOOLISH MAN.

When prices are high, money is plentiful and
can he had on easy terms. The wise man pro-
duces all he can, markets all he can and borrows
at low rates.
When prices are low, money is scarce and
credit is hard to obtain. The wise man then buys
ali he can and borrows as little as possible.
Now is the time to produce, to sell and to Dor
row when the banks are eager to keep the dollar
circulating.
In 1914 when cotton was down, you talked
about not producing so much, about buy a bale.
and farmers could notborrow or get credit and
were sold out. Money was then scarce and in
terest high.
Keep money circulating and business is good
and banks will lend at low rates. Now is the time
to get Northern money and make them take the
cotton.
Sell your products while prices are high and
borrow money while funds are plentiful. Any
business man, and banker will tell you to in
crease your products, keep selling at high prices
and borrow at a low rate if necessary to develop
your products.
The wise man is borrowing right now to in
crease his yield, be it fruit, corn, cotton, roads,
etc., because money can be had at low rates and
products bring high prices. He would be foolish
to wait for prices to go down and money became
tight and interest high. The South has a chance
of a lifetime to get capital down here at low
rates and develop the South by borrowing North
ern money and investing it in Southern soil.

LOOK OUT FOR SQUASH BUGS
Insects Attack Melon, Cucumber and
Squash Vines When Plants Are
Small-Use Netting.

Look out for the yellow striped
s%quashbugs that attack melon, cucum-
Der and squash vines when the plants
are small. The best preventive is to
put a mosquito-netting tent over each
hill, using two little sticks as supports,
and covering the edges with soil to
hold the netting in place. Erect these
tents as soon as the plants come
through the ground, or sooner, and
leave them in place until the vines be-
gin to push for room. Then store the
netting for future use.

 Stevenson tells in his s'Virginibus Puerisque" of a husband who hears after marriage that some poor fellow is dying of his wife's love. What 2 pity he. exclaims, you know I could so easily have got another. And yet that is a very happy union." But I'll wager the husband didn't think that way before marriage.
 One Can See How the Exceptional
 Person Does It.
 One can understand how a surpassi ingly beautiful or fascinating woman could arouse such a passion, but how cAT a perfectly ordinary woman ac- complish it?
 But isn't it just splendid that they can?
 Think how such feeling glorifies the whole world. No matter how poor they are. how pinched their ex- istence, in each others presence the lovers can find some magic that transforms the world.
 Thank Heaven that they. who lack so many other beautiful things In life. can an. least have this.-perhaps the most beautiful.

And. unlike most men. he wanted the world to know the odds had been up against. He told us all about It.. how he had made up his mind to marry her in spite of the others headstart, and how he had bent his whole existence for two years tofthe task of getting her.
 And all the time he talked I just couldn't help wondering, but why did 1t make such 8 difference to him, why couldn't he have taken someone else? ss
