TIMELY REMARKS ON
SPRAY PREPARATION
Power Pump Should Be Used If
Best Results Are Expected
High Pressure Needed.

The following timely remarks are
taken from letter sent out to super
intendents of Ohio state institutions
by S. w. Moore. horticulturist of the
Ohio board of administration.
"The power pump is the pump to
use If results are wanted. The argu-
ment used at some of the institutions
by those in charge of the work has
been that there is plenty of hand
power or labor power and 1t is eco
nemical to use It, This sounds well.
but IL the practical orchardist were
consulted. he would say that the
hand pump, aside from the labor of
running it. Is an expensive proposi-
ton, AS 1t is almost impossible to
maintain the pressure necessary ef-
fectively and economically to cover
all parts of the tree or plant; and
when all parts are not covered, the
application will count for little.
Success depends first upon the
material used. Second upon the up
plication, which means thoroughness.
The thoroughness that is necessary
can only be obtained with heavy
pressure all the time; not $50 or 200
pounds for awhile, then 10 or 80
pounds. Such pressure will not
force the liquid into all the cracks
and crevices; and where some are
missed. scale and fungous diseases
will be found lurking, ready again to
take possession of the plant as
soon as weather conditions are favor
able.
''If anything is to be done along
this line, 1t is time the spray outfits
were ordered. Spray material should
be on the way soon, as the clean up
or dormant spray should be applied
before growth begins. This is true
of either tree or vine"

Proper action in the draft horse Is
important, according to David Gray,
assistant In animal husbandry in the
Kansas State Agricultural college. Size
and power are of little value If the
horse has not enough agility to han
die his big weight In a manner yield
ing the greatest efficiency.
"Hction of the draft horse should
be clean, bold, and rather Stylish" said
Mr. Gray. "In moving, the feet should
be carried forward and back in u
straight line, without padding, wing
ing. or other irregularity Of gait. In
order to get the best and greatest
stride with the least energy it is abb
solutely necessary that the feet move
straight and smooth without defects
of gait.
"Knee action in the draft horse is
not of great Importance. A long stride
which covers considerable ground Is
much more important than high knee
action. as ability to cover ground is
what is wanted.

A great loss on all farms where
hogs are raised results from the raw
ages of worms. Great as are the

even greater losses accrue from
worms.
Hogs infested with worms gain slow

energy in coughing instead of using 1t

more, they are kept In such a weak
ened condition that they are more sus-
ceptible to diseases, including hog
cholera, and it may be said with much
confidence that hog worms are the
forerunners of disease.
They cause disastrous results only
where they are permitted to go un-

to rid a herd of hogs of them, and
many useful remedies have been rec

CAUSES OF FAILURE

Lack Of Proper Food in Soil, Acid

The spring is usually regarded as

1t is likely that this spring will be no

The usual causes of failure are from

the soil, late freezes killing the young
plants just after they come up, or the
nurse crop smothers the young plants.

a start and also plenty of moisture.
The soil must be in condition to
hold moisture over possible dry spell,
hence the necessity of well-prepared
seedbed nd plenty of humus in the
soil.
The oats crop is often used to SOW
clover with, and 1t does very well
sometimes, and other times the clover
is an utter failure.
often sow clover with buckwheat,
and have never failed yet in getting
stand of clover with the buckwheat
crop, even when sown as late as Au-
gust.
Then when the buckwheat comes off
the stubble helps to protect the young
clover, and the ground is not covered
with a crop of growing weeds which
rob the young clover of both moisture
and plnntfood. as is usually the case
when clover is sown with wheat or
oats.
often turn the wheat stubble, and
after narrowing the soil thoroughly let
1t lie for about two weeks in order to
settle down, and then sow buckwheat
and clover or timothy and clover about
the first of August
I have never failed to get a good
stand of grass and clover and usu-
ally get enough buckwheat to pay for

FARMERS ARE ASKED

Farmers are urged to ship their

patriotic measure. With prices for
wheat established by the government,
Secretary G. w. Murnane of the Rail

mittee on a service, believes that no
advantage can be derived from holding
such grains in farm elevators.
"The roads a promptly handle
wheat to storage centers now and such
movement will facilitate the manufac-
ture Of flour for domestic consumption
and for export to our allies. That is
why the railways are appealing to
farmers for quick action. Later,
when many more products must be
hauled, congestion and delays are
o likely.
"The carriers are now being oper-
ated as near as possible like a single
unit to serve the entire community.
But the demand for hauling soldiers
and supplies will be an increasing
burden which may hamper the move
