by cedar rust. The effect of the
 cedar rust has been that large part of the apple crop is not fit for either first or second grade fruit and must be consigned to factory. This means great loss
 Fruit growers in Washington and Benton counties are follow ing the suggestions given by j. S. Knox, horticulturist with the Agricultural Extension Division, University of Arkansas, in which
 he says: It has been clearly dem onstrated that dry lime sulphur
 does not kill the scale, and should not be used on orchards, as 1t is waste of money Commercial lime sulphur solution is an effect i've spray. When ordered by the growers themselves in carload lots 1t will cost far less than when purchased from dealers in small quantities. Each gallon of concentrated solution will make sufficient spray solution for from four to six trees. The only safe way to prevent scale from get ting a hold in the orchard is to apply dormant spray. All so- lutions should be tested before using in order to be sure that they are strong enough. Too weak solutions do not kill the scale. See that all parts of the tree are covered. And use the spray which has results in the past-liquid lime sulphur. And don neglect to use 1t. To do so is sure to cause you to lose some of your best trees.
 Cedar rust causes great loss to the grower. In many in- stances theloss has been from 10 to 60 per cent of the crop value. This loss is practically all due to cedar rust alone and could have ben prevented by cutting down all cedar trees within a radius of a mile and a half of the orchards last spring. Spraying will not the damage.

 Don't pay two taxes" is the timely slogan of the Door county (WiS.) live stock committee.
 Few farmers realize that they are paying in addition to their regular tax "poor-cow tax" This 'poor-cow tax Is about the heaviest, robs the pocket book, and profits no one.
 "You have just paid your annual property tax This is necessary to pro vide for our schools, roads, and other government expenses from which you benefit; but why pay two taxes? is the appeal which, in the shape of little card, is being placed in the hands of Door county owners of scrub sires And the prospect" who wants to be shown is pointed to results which were worked out in farm management sur vey, where it was found that on 124 farms with pure-bred sires the average net profits were S1, 102; on 466 farms with grade sires the profits averaged

THE WOODSHED

The woodshed is one of the mi nor farm buildings. But 1t is of ten one of the most sorely needed of farm buildings. Folks who have to go out in the frost and rain and the snow to gather up that wood, do not know what good living is. Many folks do that way, too. A woodshed is not expensive to build. It can be built on almost any plan to suit the farmers tastes and finances. Just so it keeps the wood dry and is convenient to the house, it will do. But it should by all means be there. It Is not a thing to do without.

BREED DAIRY HEIFER EARLY
Purpose Should Be to Get System of Animal Into Milk Producing Habit
 Before Maturity.

By R. ". CLARK, Colorado Agricul-
 tural College. Fort Collins. Colo)
 In order that heifers may be bred young and begin milking at an early date, they should be well developed This is important. Cows that acquire considerable age and become mature before beginning to milk will not usually make as deep and persistent mixers as cows that are bred at comparatively early age and begin to milk before they are mature. The aim Is to get the system of the ani- nal into the habit of producing milk at as early an age as possible. There fore the heifer should be we'll fed and cared for from birth.
 If the helfer Is we'll developed she should be bred at 15 to IS months of age, otherwise she should not be bred until 10 to 20 months of age.

 S134, and on S3 farms with scrub sires there was an annual loss averaging S234.
 The scrub sires on these farms were responsible for at least part of the good or bad showing. A poor bull is an extravaganza which Door county farmers cannot afford. Watch us grow a reputation" is the enthusiastic part ing challenge of the committee which sular county.
 Practically every farmers organiZa- tion of the county-Grange, the Soci- ety of Equity, the Association of Guernsey Men, the Holstein Cattle club-is cooperating in the better-bull campaign.
 What in reality amounts to a farm bureau-a committee made up of a representative from each township and with the county agent as managing di- rector-is directly responsible for the county's drive to replace the grade and scrub bulls with good pure breds.
 ITO keep its lead in dairying and live stock raising Wisconsin must dis card its scrub sires," said the executive committee of county agents and repre- sentatives of all of the states cattle breeders associations.
 Count on Door county to help" said this live livestock committee Al though somewhat off to one side, the Door peninsula Is still on our map, and we are going to stay there. In one of our townships, which happens to be an island six miles out in Lake Michi- gan, each man contracted more than year ago to use only purebred bulls and every one agreed to stay by but one breed"
 And by means of this same kind of teamwork the other townships of the county are promising to follow suit.
 'The entire county is going to wage war on the scrub-only upon much more extensive scale." The county agent spoke as if he represented men who meant business.
 "The committee is out to give their county reputation for the production of as high-class cattle as it already has for Montmorency and Early Richmond cherries"

Garden Hints

Extension workers in south Arkansas report that many gar .dens are now being worked with Ia horse and blow, while many others are growing up in weeds. They suggest that gardens should be plowed thoroughly at this time. and narrowed until smooth. The rows should then be laid off and equal parts of cotton seed meal and acid phosphate applied at the rate of about 400 pounds to the acre, mixing 1t we'll with the soil. The ground is then ready for planting turnips, on- ion sets beets, radishes, lettuce, carrots, spinach, kale and other hardy plants. Cabbage plants set now should be heading by winter. The young plants should be kept free from weeds and the soil about them kept in good Itiltb.

Cheap Water Systems for. Farm

 However, the specialists with the

 many are overlooking the fact
 there is successful and practical water system which is within the reach of every farmer. It need not be elaborate. In fact, the simplest and cheapest systems are often the best.

And Hog Cholera

Farm buildings are an import
 ant part of the farm, and shoud not be built until plans have been carefully made. In making the plans. sanitation is very impor- tant item for consideration. The
 greatest germicide known is sun light. says Dr. w. L. Bleecker, head of the department of bacter- iology and pathology of the Uni versity of Arkansas College of Agriculture, and the more sun light which enters the building the more sanitary it vii be. Tu- berculosis and hog cholera flour
 sh in dark, damp, poorly drained and ventilated building. Sun light makes a building lighter, warmer, r,and more dry and pleas ant for livestock and for the man who works in the barn.
 All buildings shoud have dry floors, and these should be easily cleaned. Concrete is perhaps the ideal flooring material, for it is quickly and easily cleaned, and if properly laid and surfaced it will be neither dam nor slippery. Another advantage of a concrete floor is that 1t is mona bsorbent, and does not provide breeding places for disease-breeding bac- teria.

Machinery Sheds Pay Big Divi
 dendS

4 saving of from 10 to 9 per cent yearly can be made by pro tectinf machinery from the weather, according to machinery specialists with the University of Arkansas. Rusts put more ma chinery out of commission than service. The life of any machine even though 1t be made wholly of steel, will be materially length ened by protection from the weather, and a shed for the farm machinery will pay big divi- dends. Bright parts should be given a coat of grease before the machine is stored away for the winter. New paint should be ap- piled to places where the paint has sealed off. Careful housing of machinery, followed by care ful repairing before the work ing season, will pay big profits.

Washington, D. c., July 16.-With
the senate in adjournment until to-

consideration.
About one-fifth of the text was
gone over yesterday, the league of
nations covenant and the section
dealing with the German boundaries
being among the portions gone over
to be taken up later. Today it was
planned to skip the Shantung sec
