sheepmen who have tried it have learn
ed TO their gain that ewes wintered in
southern Michigan can be shipped
north in the spring and successfully
grazed through the summer months on
the vast areas of cut-Over lands in the
upper half of the lower peninsula and
in many sections of the upper Pc
ninsula.
But before entering too far into re-
cital of results little OF the past
history Of this project should be re-
called. When Uncle Sam cast down
the gauntlet, Michigan's farmers and
live stock men were appealed TO for
bumper production. Coincidentully
,egions OF self-appointed SOlomons
climbed upon their soap boxes on city
street corners and let loose Il deluge of
suggestions to agriculturistS. In this
bedlaIn there was hardly Il chance In
the world that men really having some
thing to say would ever be heard, but
some of .hem did succeed finally
through the Michigan Agricultural col
lege in gaining an audience. Among
these last were owners of cut-Over pas
ture lands In northern Michigan. They
offered these areas, which otherwise
would have lain idle to sheep men. in

shipped north in the spring aud
brought back in the fall with any GER
tainty that the enterprise would be
successful. Many sheepmen, however,
were willing to make the experiment.
The results, as they have reported,
have on the whole been so uniformly
satisfactory that flOcks should this
coming season be moved north on a
large scale. The fact that land is
plentiful, tho need for wool and NUT

WIRE WRAPPERS ARE
MOST SATISFACTORY
Afford Young Fruit Trees Best
Protection Against Rabbits,
Says an Expert.

Wire wrappers afford young fruit
trees the best protection against rab-
bits, according to +. S. Merrill, assist
ant professor OF horticulture In the
Kansas State Agricultural college. The
use of poison bats and preventive
washes, as well as such time-hOnored
methods as shooting and trapping,
also Is effective.
Rabbits are a serious pest In Or
chards, and in many localities are SO
numerous as to cause considerable In
jury, especially TO young trees. One
Orchnrdist In the northeastern part OF
the state lost nearly 40 acres Of young
trees last winter from their work.
The best wrappers are made from
galvanized wire. The initial cost of
wire wrappers is heavy, but since they
are permanent, they are the cheapest
protection In the long run. Either
window screen or quarterback mesh
screen may be used. Both Ore salts
factory, but the window screen serves
to reduce the injury of borers as well
as rabbits.
In making the wire wrappers, Is to
20 inch wire should be used, depend
ing upon the height of the first limbs
on the trees. 1t should be cut into
Pinch lengths and fastened with wire
or hooks. The lower edge should be
buried few inches in the ground.
This will keep field mice off.
Poison bats have been successful y
used in the northwest, but their use
is risky since the bats may be con-
sumed by stock. Preventive washes
should be adhesive, repellent, and non
injurious. Carbolic acid, lime sulphur,
and mixture of soft soap, carbc!iC
acid and sal soda, are all good washes.

HOME ORCHARDS ARE
NEGLECTED. BY MANY
Regarded as Nuisance by Many
Farmers Because of Large
Space They Occupy.

That every farm should have home
orchard Is the opinion of DIR. ]. G..
Written Of the University of Missouri
college OF agriculture. He says that
no part of the farm will produce more
for the land Il occupies than win a
home orchard properly selected and
taken care Of.
The home orchard helps to make a
background or proper setting for the
farm buildings. 1t affords the needed
shade for poultry, pigs, cows or small
stock. 1t can give a succession Of
fruit from early until late when fruit
on the market would not be readily
available.
Despite this fact home orchards are
sometimes regarded as almost a
nuisance by the farmer. The greatest
cause for dissatisfaction is that the
home orchard is almost always too
large. It occupies too much land, pro-
duces more fruit than the family can
use and Is not taken care of unless IT
is big enough to become a commercial
enterprise. Again the home orchard
sometimes is planted to single variety
such as Ben Davis apples, which does
not allow succession OF fruits
throughout the season. Sometimes, on
the other hand, IL contains too many
unusual varieties, most of which are
not adapted to the neighborhood and
therefore are not productive.

Orchard soils must be maintained in
fertility If we are to produce good
fruits. A little neglect may cause the
soil to fail and the result is poor fruit
or none at all.
One reason peach trees seem to fail
quicker than formerly Is the failure
of our orchard soils. While people
today perhaps give more attention to
their orchards than they did years ago
yet many do not give enough atten-
ton, says Farm and Ranch. AS the
country has been settled, land brought
into cultivation and old farms worn,
the fertility has failed in many in
stances.
In the first place many of the or
chard soils have lost humus, others
have failed in plant food as result
of heavy crops, washing rains or bare
cultivation.
Those who have given thought to
peach growing know that as soon as
the fertility of the soil begins to fail
the crop is uncertain and of poor quail
ity. This has been shown time and
time again.
Best Peach Soils.
The best peach soils are the soils
that are naturally easily impoverished.
These are the loans, the sandy loans,
the clay loans and the gravelly loans.
Such soils usually produce we'll for u
few years, but unless some attention
is given to soil maintenance they will
soon fail.
1t is not difficult matter TO improve
orchard soils if one begins in time and
works methodically and systematical-
ly. But the soil must have humus be-
