LOOK TO THE YARD IN FALL
Attention Now Will Be Well Repaid
by Its Improved Appearance
In the Spring.

Tile appearance of the home has
much to do with its utility as well rs
its beauty. A home where there are
flowers, trees, lawn, etc, seems more
comfortable than where these things
are absent. Such a home is always
more satisfying, and that, of course, is
quality Of utility.
Fall is a good time to improve the
yard, lawn and general appearance Of
the home. Late fall is favorable
time to transplant many biennials and
perennals Roses, "the queens Of flow
ers," may be set; other shrubs may be
transplanted viOlets. bulbs of various
kinds sweet peas, etc, may be started
for early spring blossoms.
A little time given to the yard and
lawn now will be worth much TO the
appearance of your home next spring
Look over the yard and see what i'm
provements can be made. Doubtless
You will find that much can be done
to make your home more attractive.

PLANT ORCHARDS IN AUTUMN


The unusually profitable returns
that commercial growers realized
from their orchards last year, coupled
with the even greater returns that ap-
pear TO be certain this year, undOubt-
eddy will lead many to consider seri-
ously the ACCESSIBILITY of setting an
orchard. The writer of this article
wishes neither to encourage nor dis
courage such paintings. There is oc-
casion, however, for calling attention
TO several facts that have been estab-
lished by experience. The first Of
these is that fruit growing should be
looked upon as n longtime business
enterprise. In addition to the original
investment at the time Of starting the
orchard there is a six to eight year
period during which the grower not
only has to wait for returns but when
he must add constantly to his original
investment through care devoted to
his trees. The fruit grower is fortu-
nate indeed whose orchard at bearing
age does not represent an outlay at
least twice as great as that represent
ed by cost Of land, nursery stock and
planting right after it has been plant
ed. In the second place Orcharding
is an exacting business. Not only year
after year, but month after month, the
trees need attention in the way of cul-
tlvation, spraying, borer and rabbit
protection, etc. This care must be
81. 1vr ha
of setting as long rs the orchard lasts,
if profitable returns are to be expect
ed. Any prospective grower who is
unwilling to provide this constant care
is to be advised to stay out of the
orchard business, for otherwise he is
certain to have little but disappolnt-
ment as a reward for his halfway eff
forts. Tl-advlsed planting is expen-
slve for the individual and an injury
to the industry.
Those who are to plant orchards
would do well TO make all arrange
ments to plant in the fall rather than
in the spring. This means that the
land should be thoroughly prepared
and the nursery stock ordered so that
planting can start in late october.
Fall-set trees do much better under
Missouri conditions than trees planted
in the spring. There is a smaller
amount of loss of trees and the growth
of the first two seasons is largo and
f shiff Fisasfeiifs to N'' 5's-ufn good grade
nursery stock Of the desired varieties
than in the spring when supplies are
more or less depleted.
The University of Missouri College
of Agriculture will be glad to make
suggestions regarding varieties, the
choice of soils and locations, and many
other details connected with the
business, whenever this information is
requested by the prospective grower.

Feeding COttonseed cake to steers as
a supplement to summer pasture in
creases materially the rate Of gains
made by the animals, causes them to
finish more quickly ana take on high
er degree Of finish, and increases the
margin between the buying and selling
prices, specialists Of the United States
department Of agriculture say in Bull
ietin III, just published by the depart
ment. The bulletin is a report of ex-
periments in fattening steers on sum
mer pasture conducted comparatively
by the department and the Alabama
experiment station in 1912 and 1913
and the Mississippi experiment station
in 1915 and 1916.
All the experiments were carried out
under actual and typical farm condi-
tons. Consequently the results may
be applied directly in many regions to
the management and feeding of cattle
on pasture. In each experiment,
groups Of steers were kept on pas
ture alone; on pasture with a supple
mentary feed Of one-half corn chop and
one-half cottonseed cake; and on pas
ture with a supplementary feed of cot
tonseed cake. The average daily gains
for each animal, which may be cOnsid-
cred the most valuable standard in
judging the efficiency of rations, were
1.49 pounds for the steers getting pas
tire only; 1.S3 pounds for the steers
getting cottonseed cake with pasture !;
and 1.53 pounds for thsse on pasture
supplemented by the mixture of cake
and corn chop.
The initial cost Of the steers per 100
pounds Of the three groups was the
same for any one year, but in each
case the steers on pasture alone sold
for a lower price. The margins be
tween the buying and selling prices of
the cattle were always in favor of
those which were fed supplements with
their pastures. The margins aver
aged less than % cents a hundred
pounds for the steers on pasture alone,
compared to 80 cents for animals
which were fed cottonseed cake with

revise the calendar and make it uni
form throughout the world. Bureau
officials of the United States. Swizer-
land and Great Britain got into touch
with church officials before the war on
the subject of calendar revision, and
have kept up consideration Of the mat
ter since. Church leaders say an
agreement has been reached and n
uniform report is nearly ready to go
to the league.
The calendar has not been revised
before because of objections from the
churches to dates for the great re-
igious feasts. These objections are
said to be removed A fixed date for
Easter, the adding Of thirteenth
month, the making of every week be-
gin with n Sunday and having exactly
% days in each month-these are the
main features agreed on. Church peo-
pie favoring the revision say that If
the league itself cannot act, it can
designate a calendar congress TO do
