OPERATIVE EXCHANGES

planting area cannot be carried out.
This will remove the grass cover and
will make the work much cheaper. AL
sod or grass cover should be removed
from a space at least Is inches square
before q tree is planted, provided 1t ~
not set in q furrow.
Slit Method.
The slit method is the cheapest ana
in light, sandy soils the best. A spade
is used to open q wedge-shaped hole
in the ground by moving it forward
and backward. Into this opening the
tree roots are suspended full length,
and the earth is pressed firmly around
them by a thrust of the foot which
closes the hole.
Deep-HoIe Method.
A hole is dug wide enough and deep
enough to accommodate the tree roots
without crowding. Care should be Z
ercised in putting the soil back on the
roots to see that no large rocks or s0ds
are allowed to fall in, because Of the
possibility of leaving air spaces, which
will cause the plant roots to dry out.
Holes never should be dug a long time
in advance of planting, unless it be In
the fall, on account Of the danger OF
drying out. If there is a hardpan or
stratum of soil impervious to water
at the bottom, this should be broken
up thoroughly with tools or a light
charge of dynamite. Unless this II
done the tree will not thrive.

Growing From Nuts.
Trees grown from large nuts, such
as walnut and oak, are best propa-
gated by planting the nut where the
mature tree is desired. Unless this is
done, the long, heavy taproot, even at
the end of the first year, makes trans
planting difficult and the loss heavy.
Black walnut Is best planted in the
fall.
Conifers are much more difficult to
raise than hardwoods, and unless a
large project is undertaken it is in
advisable to attempt to raise them.
Thrifty stock may be purchased from
reliable nurserymen and in some cases
at cost from nurseries maintained by
the state. Stock grown as near as
possible to the region of planting is
always preferable.
If bardwoOds r used, One-year
seedlings give best results under nor
NAL conditions. Large stock should be
avoided. 1t Is more expensive and re-
quires more time and attention to
plant. If conffers are used, nothing
smaller than three-year-old %transplants
should be tried. Transplants are pref
cradle to seedlings because Of the
larger mass Of 1brous roots.
Methods Of Planting.
Planting methods are dependent
largely upon the size, Of the stock and
the condition Of the site. When stock
Is received for planting, the first pre-
caution is to see that it has not dried
out. The roots never should be ex-
posed to the sun or drying air. The
roots Of stock that is packed in crates
should be moistened thoroughly before
the trees are removed. If the trees
are extra-large conifers and the roots
Of each tree are protected with earth
bound with a cloth covering, the whole
should be planted without removing
the wrapper. In any case, all small
stock, if it cannot be planted at n
should be heeled in in a cool, moist
situation. The tops should not be GOV
cred.
All grassy, weedy, or heavy land
should, If it is practicable, be plowed
and narrowed at least II months be-
fore the trees are planted. Fall plow-
Ing is preferable. If manure is to be
used, it should be applied at the time
Of blowing to enable it to decay. If
1t is placed fresh next to the roots at
the time of planting, there is danger
of burning them. Although blowing
is not absolutely necessary, it Is pro-
ductive of good results, and the bene-
fits are several times as great as those
secured by caring for the ground after
the stock is set out. It is still better
to use ground which has been under
cultivation for two or three years.
Young plants need just as much care
as a garden, and their growth will be
proportionate to the amount Of care
they receive.
Planting may be done in either of
two ways: by the slit method or BY
the individual-hole method.
Either Of these methods may be
worked out in q shallow furrow. 1t Is
very desirable on sod ground to pillow
q furrow if complete cultivation Of the

as possible during the season. After
the first Of September water should
be applied only to keep the ground

necessary in order to harden the ten

Cuttings may be used successfully

the fall or early winter after the

RESUMES SERVICES
ON MILWAUKEE, RUN

The officials Of the Hill Steamboat
Line announced this morning that the
daily freight service to Milwaukee
would be resumed ON July LIST. This
will mark the beginning of strenuous
efforts by the company to put the Mil
waukee business on better basis AMI
to convince the public of the necessity
for cooperation. The service given
by the Hill line is and always has been,
very remarkable one, in fact the oper-
atoms of these steamers gives Kenosha
a freight delivery that is unequalled.
The fact that the railways are groan-
ing under the weight of war materials,
makes it patriotic duty to utilize to
the fullest extent all our water trans
portation facilities. The government
has emphasized this fact many times,
and it will be the aim of the boat line
to make its contribution by re-estab-
fishing the Milwaukee run.
1t seems certain that at this time
Kenosha must realize to the fullest ex-
tent the Importance of its harbor and
the Hill teamboat Line asks its hearty
cooperation in making the Milwau-
kee service a success.

pany came to a close on Friday eve
ming and the statesmen were hurrying

ready to meet the biggest business in

of the forty FIVE statesmen present at

ness conditions in his particular ter

ness of the company will be limited
only to a greatly increased production.
With three new mills turning out Black
Cat products the company hopes to be
able to meet the demands of the gov
eminent for ever Increasing production
for the army and at the same time
make provision for the normal increase
in the domestic business. The sales
men of the company during their visit

they are declared to be the finest lines
ever offered to the trade from the

FAREWELL, SUGAR BOWL.
The Place of This Once Very Useful
Dining Table Article Has Been
Usrlrped by Envelopes.

Farewell to the old fashioned sugar
bowl or to the new tangled one also
for that matter. Uncle Sam has de-
cided that the placing Of sugar-bowls
on the dining tables of hotels, restau
rants and eating places does not prop
erly conserve the supply of sugar, so
he has ordered the county food commits
sioner of Kenosha county, and every
other food commissioner in the land to
order all sugar bowls from the tables,
clubs, hotels, and other eating houses.
In place of the sugar bowl the proprie-
tor of the eating house shall serve a
spoonful or single lump of sugar to
their customers in small individual
envelopes. The food commissioner is
directed to urge the public to conserve
sugar in every way. The shortage of
sugar is now more critical than ever be-
fore since the beginning of the war.
