GLEANINGS
MAINTAIN FERTILITY OF SOIL
Cover Crops Are Used to Supply
Humus and Improve Physical
Condition of the Land.

Thrifty trees produce the best yields,
and in order that the trees may con-
tinue to thrive it is necessary that the
fertility of the soil be maintained.
This is done by the use of cover crops
which are used to supply the amount
Of humus in the soil, and by the ap-
plication of fertilizers either in the
form Of barnyard manure or CONNER
cial fertilizer. Cover crops improve
the physical condition of the land, pre-
vent washing and hardening of the
soil, hold the rains and SHOWS until
they have time to soak into the land,
cause the soil to dry in the spring
making further tillage possible, and
sometimes serve as protection from
frost. When a leguminOus crop is
used plant food in the form of nitro
gen is added to the soil.
Good tillage and the maintenance of
an ample supply Of humus or decaying
vegetable matterain the soil will do
much to keep it in sufficiently pro-
ductive condition for peach growing.
But continuous tillage of the soil tends
to deplete it's content of humus unless
it is renewed from time to time.
Where stable or barnyard manure
is abundant there is probably no more
satisfactory way of supplying humus
to the soil than by a liberal use Of it.
Manure is seldom obtainable, however,
in sufficient quantity to meet any far
reaching needs. In it's absence the
use of cover or green-manure crops is
to be advised.
The plants commonly used for cover
crop purposes fall into two groups
leguminous Cor nitrogen-gathering
and nonleguminOus. The former group
comprises red clover, crimson clover,
bur clover, field peas, vetch, cowpeas,
and others; the nonleguminous group
consists Of rye, oats, buckwheat, mil
let, rape, turnips, and various others.
Sometimes the growth of weeds or
other more or less spontaneous growth
is encouraged after the seasonal Gull
tivation is ended, as a means of OBJ
tanning a cheap supply Of vegetable
matter for the soil.
Red clover is more commonly used
in apple orchards than in peach or
chards, and especially when it is In
tended to omit tillage for a season.
Vetch is apparently being used more
| and more as an orchard cover crop in
the northern fruit districts. Crimson
clover is especially satisfactory in
some of the light soils in New Jersey
and Delaware in seasons when there

Hot summer days upset the
strong stomachs as well as weak
ones.
Your vital forces reach their
lowest level when the weather is
the hottest. Then the danger is
the greatest.
You can't guard your stomach
and bowels too carefully through
the long, hot season. Don't take
any chance. Indigestion, sour
stomach, that wretched, bloated
feeling, belching, food repeating,
pains that claw at stomach and
bowels and an endless train of
stomach ills that make life mis-
cradle are greatly aggravated in
the hot weather.

vital that we keep our strength

His Little World.

A certain young Indianapolis Mother
adopted the policy this summer of TAX
Ing her little son with her on visits to
the homes of friends. Several weeks
ago, while passing the James Whitcomb
Riley homestead, the young mother,
who had read number of Riley's
poems to the boy, pointed out the
house and told him who once lived
there. A few days later she had &C.
casion to pass the home of Kin Hub
bard, writer of the Abe Martin philoso-
ply in the News.
There is the home of Abe Martin,
said she, pointing at the house.
The boy gazed at it intently for a
few minutes, and then, turning to his
mother, said:

5. Churn-The barrel type of churn
is simple, inexpensive, easy to oper-

g. Butterworker-Th lever and the
table butterwOrkers are very satisfac-

titles of butter a table worker or COM
bihed churn and worker is frequently
used.
7. Thermometer-A floating dairy
thermometer should be used.
s. Cream and Buttermilk Strainer-
A strainer similar to colander or a
strainer dipper is frequently used for
straining both the cream and butter
milk. A hair sieve is sometimes used
ter does not stick to it as it does to
tinware.
8. Stirring Rod-A rod with
four or five-inch disk on one end is
more effective in stirring cream than a
spoon or other implement. Stirring
rods should be well timed and smooth
so that they may be cleaned easily.

The following equipment is needed
for butter making on the farm:
1. Milk Pails-They should be of the
type commonly known as covered-top,
should be heavily timed, and have all
seams flushed with solder so that they
can be cleaned easily.
2. Cream Separator-Any make is
satisfactory if it skins clean and can
be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized.
3. Shotgun Cass-As a cream con-

to crooks and many other types of cans
and pals commonly used. This can usu-
ally measures about S1a inches in di-
ameter and 20 inches high. These
cans are easily handled, covered, and
cleaned.

is good supply of moisture in the
soil at the time of seeding. Cowpeas
are very widely used for this purpose
in middle and southern ATTITUDES.
Probably rye is the most widely
used nonleguminous plant. 1t can be
sowed late in the season, and it lives
over winter and starts into growth
early the next spring. All Of these
points are important considerations in
many instances. But oats in COM
bination with vetch have been espe-
cially satisfactory in some cases, and
German millet has been shown to be
almost an ideal nonleguminous cover
crop under some of the conditions
that prevail in Nebraska.
When cover crop is used in a
peach orchard 1t should be plowed
under as early in the spring as prac-
ticable, unless the growth that is on
the ground can be worked into the soil
effectively and more conveniently by
the use Of disk or cutaway harrow.
However, If there Is an abundance of
moisture In the soil, the turning I'M
der of the cover crop Is delayed In
many cases until after 1t has made
considerable growth in the spring, in
order to obtain as large quantity of
vegetable matter to be worked into
the soil as is possible.

Colds But No Influenza.

There are about two hundred
soldiers in the base hospital,
mostly from the Third Infan-
try. Many people have an idea
that they are influenza patients
but such is not the case. It is
nothing more than cold some
what akin to the symptoms of
influenza but entirely different
from that disease. 1t is a sort
of affection common at this sea-
son of the year but not of a Sc
verety to necessitate the afflict-
ed one to go to bed. No cases OF
pneumonia have developed and
none is anticipated. There are
ia good many eases of the same
kind among civilians but no one
pays more attention to it than
they would to any ordinary
cold.
There are very few pneumo-
MIA cases in this section not
withstanding the changing sea-
son and what few cases develop
here and there are confined to
people whose living conditions
are such that the slightest
change in weather conditions
initiate in some way against
them.
