Notes ON Home Gardening.

u z go = L T. -
Shallow cultivation for the gar
den crops after each raine or in case
Of dry weather, at intervals of about
10 days, should be the practice OF
gardeners from now on, says
Miss Norma Overbey, garden special
ist, extension division, Louisiana
State University. Special effort
should be made to maintain sol
mulch around tomatoes, peppers and
other crops that are expected to last
over into midsummer.
"When tomato vines are staked and
pruned properly they do much better
than when allowed to rest on the
ground. If the season is dry cultiva.
ton can then be kept up; if wet, the
fruit does not rot so readily. Prun'
lng is necessary where stakes are usec
to keep the vines off the ground. One
cannot tie a mass of lateral branches
to stakes very successfully.
'sThe time to remove the latera
shoots is when they are Very small
Il one or two grow large and get be
yond control, try to tie them up
The removal of the buds or sneal
shoots in the axis of the leaves doe:
not injure the plant, but the remova
of limb after it is ten or twelve
inches long reduces the total lea1
surface and is injurious.

New Farm Bulletin on Poultry
Diseases.

~ I. !.
Chickens and other poultry are
susceptible to many diseases, some of
which are highly infectious. Disease
germs pass rapidly from fowl to
fowl, and may be carried by one
means or another to neighboring
ff5cks producing extensive outbreaks.
Certain diseases respond favorably to
treatment. Others resist all efforts
at treatment and cause very heavy
losses. Preventive measures proper
ly applied offer the surest means OF
controlling poultry diseases. It is
necessary that the poultry owner be
enlightened as to the characteristics
Of the more important diseases in
order that he may intelligently use
the most approved methods of com
batting them Sanitary and other
measures which have been found sue
cessful in the control of poultry dis,
eases may materially reduce the
great annual losses in flocks if they
are properly applied.

Outfielders are generally called on to
do more running than other players.
Good physical condition is necessary
and practice in sprinting will help you
more than anything else. With speed,
a keen eye for distance, Rnack of
catching any ball you lay hands on and
a good strong whip, the average youth
can be made into a good outfielder-
Catching long, high flies may seem
hard at first but with practice you will
soon become proficient. While it is
best to keep your eye on the ball every
second, it is sometimes necessary to
turn and run back without looking at
the pill at all. To do this requirs ac-
curacy and swiftness in gauging the
balls flight. Get someone to hit fly
balls over your head and practice run

ming back and catching these wallops.
In throwing to bases and the home
plate, keep the ball low and let it reach
its destination on one bound. Use
your own judgment in throwing to
bases. Dope out the possibilities of a
play beforehand, as a throw to the
wrong base may lose the game.
Don't take foolish chances in catch
ing low line drives but play the ball
safe, unless the game is close.
Study the batters. as most of them
have a fondness for hitting the ball to
some particular spot. Knowing what
your pitcher is going TO throw will help
you in this. Back up your infielders
and the other outfieIders on every oc-
casion. Most boys have no glasses for
playing sun fields, so it is necessary
to learn to shade the eyes by holding
the glove up to the rays of the sun.
A little mud between the temple and
eye on both sides of the head will make
a contrast and dull the suns rays.
