fruit sirup for soda fountains. While
these new sources enter the field as
competitors in purchasing small
fruits, the supply from families who
patronize the groveries CONTINUES.
Those who have planted or arc
about to plant an orchard may we'll
consider the Importance of painting
small fruits between the rows OF
young trees or in a plantation by
themselves. These small fruits will
come quickly into bearing and give
the planter much needed revenue
while he il waiting for his orchard
to come into bearing. Small fruits
are the poor mans berries. The
poor man can secure ready money
from a little patch of strawberries or
raspberries, blackberries or grapes in
his garden, or from currants and
gooseberries. There are some parts
OF the country where apples, pears
and peaches cannot be grown, owing
to the severity OF the winters, but
even in these ATTITUDES the straw
berry will succeed by giving it a
slight winter protection of strawy lit
ter or strawy manure. The currant,
gooseberry and grape are the hardest
of the other small fruits for northern
localities.

Fertilizer and Fruit.

The application of fertilizers is one
Of the least important factors in
fruit growing in Kansas, in the OPP
inion of F. S. Merrill, assistant pro-
fessor of horticulture in the Kansas
State Agricultural College.
Some soils in the state are so ex-
tremely fertile that orchards planted
on them have q tendency to make an
excessive wood growth" said Mr..
Merrill. "This abnormal growth of
wood tends to cut down the size of
the fruit. On such fertile soil the
use of fertilizers is a detriment.
'In sandy soil, where clean cul-
tiyation is practiced, there may be q
lack of humus and organize matter.
On such soil it is well TO use a fert-
ilizer.
Excepting for young peach trees,
barnyard manure is the only fertiliz-
er that need be used. II is rich in
organic matter and supplies the soil
with all the material that Is needed
for orchard fertilization. The man
ure should be applied in the fall and
winter at the rate OF twelve to fifteen
tons an acre. In the spring the man
ure should be disked into the
ground"

Making Money in Russia.

A still more direct bit of testimony
about Russia comes to me from an
international banker who for two
years has been studying the Cars
domains:
Russia has the materials,
she has the rich land. the breadth of
territory, the fuel and the people to
no another United States. To-day
Russia is manufacturing an enor-
nous quantity of stuff she never
knew she could make and which
heretofore she bought from her
neighbors."
Last year saw 1000 new million
aires made in Japan. War NUM-
tions! A similar thing is happening
in Russia.
Said the banker: There will be
three millionaires in Russia at rhe
ciose Of the war for every one who
was there in 1913, all due to this
aroused industrialism."
According to this cosmopolitan
thinker, who is himself a German.
Germany is earning the least nv
this war, for the reason that il knew
the most before the war started"

Making Spraying Pay.

why are so few of the small home
home orchards sprayed" A we'll
known fruit expert asks the question,
and supplies the answer in the Week
ly Sun (Canada.) First of all, be-
cause the owner is not familiar with
the spraying operations and because
he has a vague idea that orchard
spraying is expensive and intended
only for the large commercial grow
err"
Every tree or other plant that
grows has enemies. BY applying
proper chemicals, many of these par
asites may be destroyed before they
have injured the host plant.
In the orchard, for instance, we
have caterpillars which eat apple
leaves, and if, before the caterpillars
begin their work, the leaves are
coated with a poison spray or dust,
the pest is poisoned before it has
done much damage.
In undertaking the protection of
the trees and fruit from pests, one
must consider the insects and dis
eases together, and combine the
sprays so that both pests are con-
trolled. The fungicides used for the
diseases are the insecticides in COM
mon use today can readily be COM
bined, so that by one application
both pests are controlled.
The man who wants to make every
dollar and every hour count in spray
ing will study the insects he is fight
ing. He will remember that there is
a time to spray when the application
will be worth many times as much as
it would be If done at some other
date. He will study the literature of
the subject and be guided in this by
his own experience and by the ex-
perience of practical orchard men.
The government supplies good, re-
liable information regarding spray
ing.
There is nothing of the mysterious
about the undertaking, Just hard
work, some study and a disposition
to do the work when il needs doing
and not at some other time which
might be more convenient to the

Chnrning Made Easier.

Failure TO get butter ito core
by .,h,'i;in' is no az uncommon cS-
perience, especially during the whit
or season. The trouble most often
occurs on those farms where only a
few cows are MIXED. II the milk Of
one or two animals is responsible for
the difficult churning. other milk
when mixed with it will overcome
the trouble. Usually when the trouble
occurs it is due to one Of two causes:
An incorrect churning tempatnre or
because of the peculiar composition
of some milk and cream.
During the cold months of the
year cream should be churned at a
higher tempature than during the
summer months. For this reason
careful regulation of the tempature
is necessary to give the proper ease
IN churning. II the tempature at
which one churns is not high during
the winter months, the cream must
be churned a longer time to form
butter. One may churn at so slow q
tempature that butter will not form
with a reasonable amount of churn-
ing. II is a very common practice
during the winter months to allow
cream to become so cold that il will
not churn.
Sometimes when cold cream is agi-
tated in the churn it will whip and
expand until the churn is nearly full.
In this condition butter will not form
because the cream cannot be suffi-
GENTLY agitated When a low tenn
perature of the cream is the cause
OF difficult churning the trouble NAV
be easily corrected by raising the
tempature. When COW becomes
nearly dry the butterfat globules in
the milk cecome very small and col
lect with great difficulty on being agi-
tated in the churn. During the whit
er the feed is such that the fat glob-
ules become very much harder and
this likewise interferes with ease in
churning. The cream also becomes
more vicsious as the animals advance
in their lactation period and this
again makes churning more difficult.
Whenever butter granules fail to
appear in about 80 to 40 minutes
churning, the cream should be raised
in tempature. 1t is we'll to raise the
tempature only few degrees at
time for IL too warm the cream will
give butter with a very soft, salvy
texture. If on raising the tempera-
ture few degrees the butter refuses
to gather, a further raise OF tempera-
ture is necessary. Whenever a raise
of tempature does not give satisfac-
tory results, add cold. pure water un-
til the cream is diluted down to about
the thickness of milk, reseparate the
mixture and discard the skimmilk.
The cream should then churn easily.
but upon iaf rtoule ensuea tn
but upon failure to produce butter,
the cream should again be diluted
and reseparated.
