BOUNDING is GOOD PRACTICE
Soil Piled Around Base OF Tree Will
Keep Mice Away-Work Can Be
Done~Any Time.

,MOunding trees with soil piled about
Il foot high around the trunk keeps
away mice which, during some years,
are very destructive. If one does not
Iaound Ills trees, he should either put
wire netting collars around them, or
be prepared to tramp down the snow
around each tree if there is much veg
citation in the orchard.
1t is not necessary to do the mound
ing or banking before the weather be-
comes fairly cold, but there is no req
sol; why this should not be done at
any time during the fall.
One important thing is to scrapc
away the vegetation that may be cicse
10 the trunk, SO that The earth that is
thrown in by the shovel will rest up
one earth, instead Of upon Il mat Of
grass or leaves through which the
mice may burrow and thus reach the
trunk and girdle it beneath the mound
which you have added.
There have been cases where the
-hort-tailcd meadow mice burroWed
through The bases Of the mounds be-
cause there Ni!S enough organic mat
ter or vegetation under them TO make
them loose and vulnerable.

Most Desirable Varieties-Grafts

be undesirable. Some varieties are
nrctispoSed to cracking, some to soft
cning of the core, while others are
knotty, and of poor quality-not a.
general thing, but under present
conditions.
From the varieties that are most
desirable, those showing inferior quail
ties should be tOp-workcd as follows !:
Scatter the CRAFTS through the tops;
inserting so many that (cach form

whole taken together will make Il full

the birds from rOosting on The nests.
Tie narrow board by which the hens
enter the nests allows their droppings
TO fan on the floor instead Of accumu-

eggs. The removable board on the
front Of the nests makes them conyen-

BLACKBERRY is WELL LIKED
Preferred to Raspberry for Orchard
InterpIanting Because of Immu-
nifty to Crown Gall.

Because of the marked immunity of
blackbcrTies to crown gall, which may
be transmitted to fruit trees, that crop
should be preferred to raspberrieS for
orchard intcrplanting.
At the Ohio station Ga rows Of rasp-
berries Including black, purple, yellow

LAWNS NOW POTATO FIELDS
veIvety Parks Of The Show Places Of
France Transformed to Meet
Economic Crisis.

The rare American tourists who visit
the chateau Of Touraine In France
may find the velvety parks of the
most interesting show places trans
formed into potato patches.
- Aristocracy has taken up the "tuber
campaign" and, beginning with the
Countess Of Noailles and the Duchess
Dues, chatelaines all over the coun-
try have promised to dig up their
lawns and plant vegetables. Flower
gardens, also, will be consecrated to
the solution Of the economic crisis.
The rose, the vine and the orchard
are not to be touched, but all annual
flowers and all green swards must
give way to the democratic potato, in
the interest of the national defense.
Since there is not enough labor for
the farm lands already under cuIti-
walton, the temporary release from the
