ORCHARD PESTS
Fruit Growers Can Do Most Val
liable Work During Fall and
Winter Months.
SPRAY AFTER FOLIAGE DROPS
Destruction Of Eggs Of Insects More
Easy .Then-Advantages OF Plant
Ing Better Seed corn-save
the Farm Wood Lot.

In order to increase the production
Of fruit it is essential that fruit grow
ers wage a continuous fight on orchard
pests. Some Of the most valuable con-
troll work can be accomplished during
the fab and winter months. Certain
destructive insects are held In creek
only by spraying during the dormant
period of trees, when stronger washes
may be used than when the trees are In
foliage. Many insects spend the win
ter on the tree,.in the egg, larva, or
pupal stage, and their destruction In
the course of pruning and other or
chard work is practicable and is OF
much importance in keeping them re-
duced. Certain fungous and bacterial
diseases, particularly pear blight and
apple canker, are best worked upon at
this time. t''ta
Practically all of the orchard scale
insects can, be-. successfully controlled
by spraying the trees after the foliage
has dropped. This work may be done
either In the fall OF during the winter
when the temperature Is above freez-
ing and in the spring before the buds
come, out I; During these periods
strong solution of lime-sulphur is used
by great many orchardists in con-
trolling San Jose scale and many other
serious scale pests. a'.r = ~
Other scale insect pests, such as the
cherry scale, oyster shell scale, etc.,
can usually be held in check by the
dormant spray with lime-sulphur wash.
The treatment is also effective against
the pear Leaf blister mite, which is uni
versally present on pears, and in many
localities becomes a serious apple pest.
Same plant lice that are destructive es-
pecially to young apple trees winter In
the egg stage and are destroyed by this
treatment. One thing that must be re-
membered in applying the dormant
spray is that the solution should cover
every part Of the tree or 1t will not be
effective.

Corn Slower for Feed.

With the increasing price of land,
feed, and the higher cost Of labor. 1t
Is becoming necessary that the farmer
eliminate, as far as possible, any waste.
He must make use of all the by-prod-
ucts Of his business much the same as
the manufacturer does. Corn is pro-
duced in practically every section of
the country, primarily for the. grain,
and frequently the stover is disre-
garded.
Properly cured stover Is relished by
live stock, but that which is left in the
open during disagreeable weather Is
far from being palatable or nourish-
ing. Slower protected from the time
1t is cut in the field is valuable feed
for young stock, idle horses and cattle
that are being carried over the winter
on cheap ration.
The best way to handle corn stover
is by means of the shredder. This
method makes 1t possible to get 1t in
the barn before the feeding qualities
have been injured by the weather.
Enough room should always be re-
served in the barn to accommodate a
good supply Of stover. Hay may be
safely stacked out, but It Is unsafe to
stAck shredded stover. Care must be
taken to give the corn ample time to
cure before It is shredded, for 1t may
heat In the NOW and become worthless
through subsequent molding

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

A medicinal preparation like Dr.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root, that has real curative
value almost sells itself. Like an endless
chain system the remedy is recommended
by those who have been benefited to those
who are in need of it. ...
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is q physi-
clans prescription. It has been tested
for years and has brought results to count
less numbers who have suffered.
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
is due to the fact that it fulfills almost ev-
cry wish in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uric acid which causes
rheumatism.
Do not suffer. Get bottle of Swamp
Root from any druggist now. Start treat
ment today.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

STORE ONLY BEST SEED CORN
Good Seed Versus More Acres as a
Means Of Increasing Crop.

Good Seed Versus More Acres as a
Means Of Increasing Crop.
By planting better seed corn larger
yields can be secured without any
more labor except in harvesting larger
crops, says the United States depart
ment of agriculture. This nation has
planted and cultivated over 100000, 600
acres of corn annually during the past
ten years. The average yield per acre
has been less than 27 bushels, and be-
low 80 bushels every year. 1t is very
probable that the demand for corn will
continue to increase and we should
place ourselves in a position to meet
the demand in the best and most prac-
ticable manner. As demands for corn
have increased we have planted more
acres. There Is an easier and better
way, namely the growing of more BUSH
els to the acre.
BY planting 10000, 600 more acres OF
corn, according to the average acre
yield, we could expect less than 27O,-
300, 600 more bushels of corn, whereas
by increasing the acre yield by only
four bushels on the 1O0.000,0OO acres
we now plant, we can expect 400, ,OOO,-
900 more bushels. A little more care
In the fall in the selection Of good seed
corn and in the winter In caring for Il
properly will increase our 1918 crop
more than much hard work next spring

Sufficient tests have been made in
various parts of the United States to
prove that by proper selection and
care of seed corn. the average acre
yield can be easily raised to 30 or even
40 bushels. Varieties that have repeat
edly yielded well in locality and have
become adapted to local conditions
often yield 10 or 20 bushels more per
acre than unadapted varieties. In the
many field tests which have been con-
Quoted, field-selected seed has yielded
from to 1s bushels more per acre
than crib-selected seed. The results
are conclusive, for in no test has the
crib-selected seed yielded more than
the f1eld-selected seed receiving proper
care. Farmers bulletin No. 415, "Seed
Corn" gives full Information.

SAVE THE FARM WOOD LOT.
Remove Only Undesirable Timber for
Fuel Supply.

Fuel Supply.
The permanent wood lot Is an es-
sential part Of well-equipped farm,
and in many cases 1t is the source of
the winter fuel supply. In heavily
wooded states, especially, farmers are
likely to overlook this fact and reck-
lessly cut, misuse, or clear up their
forest areas. No doubt more wood will
be used for fuel this winter than is
usually the case, but it is never advis-
able to allow thrifty, immature trees to
be used when it is possible to get in
ferior, mature timber.
This is good season to clean up the
wood lot, improve the timber land, and
gather the winter wood supply at the
same time. All dead trees and large,
dead limbs should be made up into
cordwood first, then the trees that
have dead or dying tops. Remove
those which are too crowded to make
satisfactory growth, keeping in mind
always to leave those trees that will
make the best salable timber. Look up
at the crowns Of the trees in deciding
which ones to thin out in a crowded
group. and take out the intermediate
trees which are being encroached upon
by the more dominant ones. Do not
make the mistake of overthinning, but
leave the small trees which have prac-
tically no effect on the main stand Of
the wood lot to develop into timber of
the future. Leave the trees as evenly
spaced as possible. Cut out all vines
from the standing timber and remove
the varieties which have little value in
the wood lot or on the market.

Cotton

There were very sharp reactions in
the cotton market yesterday. SeHihR
was held in check during the earlier
session by the reports Of frost dam
age, but reactionary sentiment was
much in evidence, and offerings m
creased later, with December breaking
to $3.50, or more than 81 bale
from last nights closing figures and
$50 points from the high level Of Tues
day That delivery closed at the lowest
point. with the general market closing
barely steady at net declines OF - TO
104 points.
The market was nervous and un-
settled from the start. October opcNed
- points higher, selling at 278o, max
ing new high price for the season.
Other months were 8 points higher TO
points lower, and prices showed ret
losses Of about 80 points. A quick
rally preceded the publication or the
weekly report from the Weather Bu-
reau. but the market soon turned
easier, as the report proved less alarm
ing than expected. The disposition 10
even up long contracts was doubtless
increased by the proximity Of the
three-day adjournment. while increased
Southern selling was accompanied by
reports of an easier spot basis. WAL
Street and Western interests were par
ticularly heavy sellers late in the after
noon, and the market closed within a
few points Of the lowest on all posi-
tions. with March showing a decline
of practically loo points from the high
level of Tuesday.
The only report TO reach the trade
placing anything like a definite hgure
on frost damage came from the Boston
Office Of a Southwestern firm, and esti-
mated the reduction In crop prospects
at not less than 100000 bales. The
weather map made more favorable
showing, with d very few points re-
porting additional frostS, and with gen
orally rising temperatures. The south
ern selling here was more active man
for some time past. which tended TO
color the talk Of an easier spot basis.
The bulk Of the pressure, however. was
attributed 20 realizing or liquidation
for over the holidays in view OF the
easier technical position and the pos
sibility that crop damage may prove
less serious than anticipated. Exports
for the day were 1927 bales, making
979,4S1 so lar this season. against J.
1899 last year.
