FALL FLOWING

II is very discouraging to go out in
the garden some morning and find
that the cut worms have cut down a
number of u best cabbage and to-
mato plants. In many cases these
plants have been ordered and to re-
place them would take time and
money. Again, they may have been

grows in the garden.
One of the best ways to get rid
of cut worms and many other garden
insects is by fall and winter blowing.
The cost of blowing may be saved by

Because Of the war, and at the

l,5OO percent in the seal sales. Even
with this big increase the total

more thar a cent and a half per

Norway for the purpose Of raising
funds with which to fight tuberculo-
sis. Miss Bissell persuaded the
American Red Cross to take up the
idea, with the result that seals were
sold in a limited number of communi-
ties in 1908.
The sale yielded a revenue of APP
proximately $4,000. The Red Cross
then decided to issue the seal each
year and to turn owe the proceeds TO
the National tuberculosis Associa-
ton and its affiliated societies for
the purpose of financing the cam

spring it is frequently difficult to
in time. BY blowing the ground in
the fall or early winter and leaving
it rough, the alternate freezing and
thawing will cause the soil to pull
verize and in the spring the prepare
ton of a well %pulverized seed bed is
a simple matter. A good seed bed
will save seed which is going to be
present all this spring.
Fall blowing opens up and deepens
the soil, thus naturally increasing its
capacity for holding water. The fact
that the garden is left rough will
cause the water to soak into the soil
rather than run off as surface water.
As a rule, where manure is applied
in the fall, it will be we'll rotted by
spring and thus render food material
available to the plants. Again. there
are certain forms of bacteria which
require considerable air for their
best work and this loosering of soil
by fall blowing will permit better
circulation of air. The alternate
freezing and thawing will render
plant food material available.
Those of us who have had very
much garden experience in Oklaho-
ma have learned that the early gar
dens are the most satisfactory. You
cannot have the early gardens with
out early preparation. Get your
gardens plowed now and be ready for
early spring seeding.--By d. c,
