 In many sections it is most profit able to have lambs arrive in March or even earlier. One important advan- tage of this plan, is that other work is then less urgent and full attention can be given to the ewes and the new arrivals. Another advantage gained by early lambing is that the lambs can be made sufficiently heavy and fat to market in June or July. Early mar keting usually means higher prices, and it is especially desirable because the lambs are disposed of before the time of greater danger of injury by internal parasites, The eve lambs are stronger than those which arrive later in the season and are, therefore. kept for the breeding flock They are less susceptible to injury caused by para sites, which is most serious in warm, damp periods of July or August.

IFERTILIzE THE FARM ORCHARD

The farm orchard can be maintain ed in satisfactory condition by the use | of stable manure and wood ashes ap- l piled on the ground about the tree, l spreading it well beyond the extent l of branches as well as under the | branches. Give a liberal application. On poor soil use more than on d more fertile soil.
 For those who cannot obtain stable manure use high grade commercial fertilizer, applying from 20 to 50 pounds per mature tree. Ground bone is an excellent material to use. but for immediate effect q more quickly available form of nitrogen should he used, such as nitrate of soda, two to five pounds per tree. or Sulphate of ammonia in similar amounts. Tank age is a good fertilizer. Stable man ure and acid phosphate or in some cases rock phosphate may be used. Lime is needed on many soils and may be applied at the rate of a ton or more per acre or 25 to 50 pounds per ma ture tree; if ground lime stone is used apply double the amount mentioned. Peaches, perhaps more than any other fruit tree, require liberal fertili- | liZation for paying crops of fruit ! Trees which are inclined to be weak, either from the severe winter, effects l of leaf curl. over-bearing, or other causes, may be revived by stimulating l them with nitrate of soda, applied 1 just as the buds are starting in the ; spring and again during the summer. | If the fertilizer is applied before a l light rain, the effect upon the tree may appear within a few days. While a complete fertilizer is recommended for peaches. nitrogen has been found 1 to be the limiting factor in many | peach orchards experiments. Two light 1 applications give better results than , one heavy one. The nitrogen is quick | ly available and may be lost by leach ing if only one application is made l early in the season. l No hard and fast rule can be made | in regard to the fertilization of or chards. but for those who have un- profitable trees perhaps neglected, unpruned and unspreayed the follow ing program is submitted: Prune your trees.
 Spray them.
 Fertilize them. using any of the fol- ] lowing:
 For Mature Apple Trees: 1. Stable manure-ten to fifteen loads per acre, or half a load per tree

 3. 800 pounds of a hign grade fer tlllZer analyZlng per cent nitrogen and per cent phosphorus.
 4. Nitrate of soda-4 to pounds per tree.

 Peach Trees. T l. One and two year old trees 1-2 ID. nitrate of soda. Mature trees may receive as high as three pounds in two applications.
 2. High grade complete fertilizer, pounds per mature tree.
 3. Ground bone to 10 pounds and 1-2 pound nitrate of soda per tree.
 Plum and Cherry Trees: The growth and condition of the crop will be an indication as to their fertilizer needs, and that recommend ed for peaches may be used. Grapes; 1 complete fertilizer high in nitro ! gen, l to pounds per vine; or

VALUE OF SANDY SOIL

The chief virtue of sandy soil for growing vegetables is that the roots of plants can pass through it readily; it's chief fault is that it dries out too quickly. Clay soil holds water well. but 1t tends to pack and harden. Both types of soil need stable manure It loosens up clay and helps to hold moisture. 4 sandy soil with a clay subsoil is ideal for growing vege- tables and small fruits-such a soil as is found in many parts of South Jersey

 seem to be native to the turkey, prob ably existing on this fowl in the. wild state. The large turkey louse prob ably is most abundant. It occurs on the feathers on various parts of the body especially on the neck and breast
 The slender turkey louse is species of good size( though rather elongate resembling in shape the head louse of chickens. Normally neither of these
 species is excessively abundant, but on crippled or unthrifty turkeys they may cause serious annoyance and un-
 doubtedly they are injurious to poults.

HARVESTING THE

OhgF UT WCOG Sheep shearing is usually done in late FDring after the lambing season. The work should be performed on a warm day. so that the ewes may not become chilled. For flocks of less than % head. hand-power machines are the most economical. These ma chimes are more rapid. produce smother work, injure the sheep less. are more easily h. ndled, and result in a larger crop than where shears are used.
 After the fleece has been removed all tags and dirt should be cleaned out of it and it should be rolled up, not too tightly the skin sid out and tied with paper twine. The value of the wool crop is often impaired by the use of binder twine in tying up fieeccs. Anything is superior to binder twine. anu paper twine is most satisfactory. Boxes for tying feeces are not Decessary; in fact, wool shows better if not tied to tightly.
 Farmers in New York and other states have proiited largely by CO., operative marketing of their wool. Under the direction of the county agent the clips are assembled, graded and sold in large quantities st the prices prevailing at the prin- Cipal markets. In the past these prices were materially higher than the general local prices obtained.

a little deeper This deeper root growth will really be an advantage to the tree. as the roots will be down in cooler, moister soil.
 The continued wet weather has made it possible to cultivate an old orchard by narrowing instead of blowing. The sods are so soft that the disk harrows will do a good job and will cut them up well. Only a small number of the higher roots will be cut off by the narrowing. Another advantage is that the work can be done while it is still too wet to blow on other land.

..Upon the outcome OF the special
session OF the State Legislature, II
such session is called. will depend
largely, the political issues OF the
next campaign" said Warren T. Nc
ray. Of Kentland, Ind, candidate for
Republican nomination for governor.
McCray was in the city for short
time Wednesday comforting with
friends.
II am in favor of a special session
Of the legislature, and believe that one
should be called, and that the suffrage
amendment should be ratified by
Indiana" he said. Indiana should do
her part in granting the vote to wom-
yen, and should not allow other states
to do her share"
In speaking of the state tax law, sew
eral charges were recommended by
McCray, particularly in the administra-
tive portion. Local self government
and self determination should be ex-
ercised in the administration Of taxing
problems, he declared.
"The law in itself has many good
points, but I believe that the state
commission has too great a power.
Taxpayers should not be required to
appear before the board every tir1e
they wish to raise money for local
needs"

Freda Lesser. his sweetheart, would
be consumed in completing the jury.
Eleven temporary jurors. including

The lengthy examination to which
each talesman was subjected and the
prospective use Of peremptory chal-

tense were expected to make impos-
sible the introduction Of evidence be-
fore tomorrow.
The defense made it plain it would
try, to prove New insane the night of
July last, when he was alleged to
have taken Miss Lesser for an auto
ride and to have shot her to death.
News counsel contend their client
was not in his right mind when. &C
cording to the prosecution, he stopped

police station and surrendered to the
officers to whom he was said to have

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Dec. IT,
An inquest into the death Of five year
old James Blake, whose body was
washed ashore in Ventnor last Sunday.
will be held tomorrow night and
should the evidence warrant, a COM
mission of alienists probably will be
appointed to inquire into the mental
condition of Mrs. Miller Blake, the
boys mother, who Is charged with his
murder.
DR.. L. r. Souder, county physician,
said today that after a thorough in
vestigation he was convinced Mrs.
Blake is unsound mentally. Il think
she is suffering from delusional insan-
ity and that she has been mentally
unsound for several years." the Doctor
said.
Prosecutor Gaskill said he would not
press the murder charge against Mrs.
Blake But" lie added, "if she makes
any admission We would be compelled
to accept it. She may be the victim Of
a mania on some scores, but there Is
reason to believe that on other things
she is rational"
The condition Of Mrs. Blake, who is
under police guard at the city hospital,
was somewhat improved today, but it
is doubtful DR.. Souder said. whether
she would be able to appear at the
inquest.
