CROPS TO GROW mi ORCHARD
Ideal Method Is Not to Grow Any CuI.
tivated Crop RetWeet Trees
Some Can Be Grown.

The ideal method of handling the
young orchard is not TO grow any cul-
tivated crops between the trees at all.
This will allow them TO be cultivated
both ways all during summer, which
is very desirable. Carefully done,
however, some CT the hOod crops, like
potatoes, Strawberries, cabbage, etc,
can be grown without injuring the trees
10 any great extent. These crops more
than pay for the expense of cultivat-
ing the trees. Not more than three
rows should be placed between two
peach rows. When the trees begin to
bear fruit, these crops should be left
off entirely, except possibly two or
three rows Of peas between the peach
rows.
In no case should the trees be stunt.
ed Or neglected in any way by growing
crops in the orchard. Such crops as
corn and grain should be left off en-,
tirely as they draw heavily on the soil
and rob the trees of both food and
moisture.

GRUBS INJURIOUS TO STOCK
Velop Into Heel Flies and Do Great
Harm to Animals.

The characteristic Jumps or swell
ings which may be found under the
skin on the backs of many cattle from
January to April contain grubs. If
these grubs are allowed to remain,
they will complete their growth, drop
to the ground and transform to heel
lilies, which may reinfest the cattle
during the spring and summer. The
grubs weaken the cattle, cause them
to fall off in flesh and milk, and de-
crease the value of the hide. The beef
in the immediate vicinity of a grub be-
comes Shiny and of a greenish color,
and is known to the butcher as clicked
beef" On an average the damage to
the hides is placed at one-third their
value and the loss of beef to each in
tested animal ranges from $500 to
$500.

Improvement Made by Breeders New.

Poor Cows Not Wanted.

The tendency to produce better cat

MANURE is MOST VALUABLE
Humus-Making Material of as Much
Benefit to Soil as Commercial
Fertilizer.

It is difficult to compare the value
of stable manure with commercial fer
tilizer since the fertilizer has it's plant
food in q more available form than the
stable manure; then, on the other
hand, the stable manure has q value
as a humus-making material which is
almost, if not altogether, as valuable
to the soil as its content of direct plant
food. The stable manure contains
much more potash and nitrogen than
it does phoHphorous, so that, consider
ing the high price and scarcity Of both
of these in a commercial form, it is
more important that the manure be
carefully saved and applied to the soil.

for this condition must be given
to the painStaking practical re-
search work of the colleges,

and effect in practical agricul-
ture. An experiment that does
not demonstrate the principles
that govern the results is not
complete and should not be ac-
cepted as reliable evidence on
which to establish farm prac-
tice. You cannot make q "silk

CULTIVATE ALL FRUIT TREES
While Young They Should Be Given
as Much Attention as ANY Other
Crop on the Farm.

Fruit trees respond as readily and
definitely to cultivation as do garden
vegetables and grain crops, and while
young, they should be cultivated with
as much care as any other crop. EN-
periments by agricultural scientists
have shown that fruits breathe, and
that cold storage delays their ripening
by causing them to breathe more sloW-
ly than when warm. If an orchard is
given as much care as grain ana other
crops-if it be carefully pruned and
sprayed and the ground properly cul-
tivated, especially the first year, there
will be no disappointment as to yield,

MUsKRAT FOR FOOD

The enormous numbers of
carcaSSeS of muSkratS which are
thrown away after the peltS
have been removed is a waste
of food. The muSkrat is an ami
NAL of most cleanly habits, is
most discriminating in choice OF
food, and is a very acceptable
addition to the table.
The writer can speak from
personal experience to the eff
feet that when cooked as rab-
bits are cooked the meat of the
muskrat is extremely palatable.
AS a matter of fact, muSkrats
are sold for food in some of the
eastern markets and some hunt
ing clubs in the East have ami
mai banquets in which the
muskrat forms the chief dish. In
some places this animal is
known as the smarsh rabbit"
1t is to be hoped that this
means of reducing the cost of
living, although slight, may not
be overloOked.-F. L. Washburn,

ARRANGING RATION FOR cows
Three Things Should Be Borne in Mind
Protein, Little Fat and to
Supply SuccuIence.

The ration for the dry COW should
be formulated with three things in
mind. namely. to furnish q sufficient
amount of protein to develop the fetus
properly and allow a surplus for the
needs Of the body of the COW; to sup
ply enough carbohydrates that the COW
may lay on a little fat; and to supply
succulence. Some kind of green feed
is very essential in the ration for the
cow at all times. 1t serves the Dur-
pose of maintaining the bowels in q
loose condition, which is necessary to
good digestion and assimilation Of
food.

The opening bill might easily give the management the right to say five programs, for Sunday and Mo..day Chaplin in "A Dogs Life vies with "Cynthiana," an Alfred Henry Lewis creation from "Wolfville Days" either of which would feature most any movie bill.
 On Tuesday, for the day only. Elaine Hammerstein, charming and as pretty as the screen boasts, comes again in a return of a picture that was voted one of the best values last winter when the Hip was serving them hot off the bat from the city theaters. Her vehicle is styled, The Correspond ent," and is without question one of if not the best Jewel production made under the hand of Lois Weber, who has done so much for the screen On Wednesday and Thursday, Ruth Clifford is to be seen in her very lat est star feature. Midnight Madness" by Rupert Julian. Miss Clifford will be remembered for the part of the Belgian miss in The Kaiser" while MT. Julian played the Beast of Ber- lin," and directed this also. Midnight Madness is a snappy modern picture product of city life after the good folk are in bed.

Every bond he buys means just so many

"The purchase of Liberty bonds will provide
police force in the shape of destroyers to ward
