eroD ~ timber or our lands ocea
giOnally, without giving any atten-
ton, it is reasonable to say that with
the expenditure Of g little foresight
and care the timber yields and prof
its would increase wonderfully.
Nearly all of our uncultivated
lands or wood lots are used for pas
turing stock. There is q time when
even grazing is destructive to little
trees. There is q proper balance as
between grazing and the production
Of timber. Common sense and local
conditions should be sufficient to de-
termine that balance. Then. the
greatest enemy Of all is fire. 1t Is
greatly to our advantage here in the
South, and for the welfare Of our
children in the future that we learn
this one thing, and learn it quickly
"A great many people know it already
and viii admit it, yet we say we are
| pOwerless to prevent it. II sense
we have not learned well enough the
lesson that these fires are destroying
our tree crops and thereby causing
US great financial loss, else we would
find remedy.
We protect our crops in the field
against many enemies, one Of which
is fire; then by the same process why
not protect our timber crop. The de-
mand for cross ties, pulp wood, fuel
wood, box boards, TO say nothing Of
lumber, is ever increasing. The ex-
tension of good roads and develop
ment Of the motor truck are making
it practicable to market our timber in
less than car lots from points remote
from the railroads.
The possibilities of timber for a
money producing crop are especially
inviting in this part of the South.
Nature offers to do it all if we will
mind off the violators of her laws.

and sold and giving little or no
thought to the conditions under
which the said trees grew.
The facts are, in most cases, these
trees received little or no attention
by the farmers. Yet the trees have
produced a crop, combating unaided,
fires, insect pests, grazing animals
and fungus diseases. Few farmers
would expect to make a profit from
their corn, oats, cotton, hay or or
chards without giving tnep a great

GET THE GARDEN
TO GROWING EARLY
How The Home Food Producer
Can Help.

Half the fun in growing a garden
comes from having your crops ma
ture early. But certain crops can
not be brought to early maturity
unless the plants are started in
doors. Plant growers are furnish
ing millions Of tomato, cabbage,
pepper and other garden plants for
sale, but they can not supply the
demand and it is really quite inter
esting to start these plants ones
self.
The process is simple enough II
you know how, says the United
States Department. of Agriculture.
1t consists Of securing a low. fiat
tray or box about 3 inches deep and
IL inches wide, and of length that
will fit into south window. Two or
three holes should always be bored
in the bottom OF the box for drain
age, and to keep the soil from sift-
ing through these holes some small
pieces of stone or coal may be laid
over them. The box is filled to with
in one-half inch Of the top with
finely sifted, rich garden loan and
firmed down with small piece of
board. The seed are planted In
shallow drills made crosswise of
the box and covered to a depth of
about IA inch. The box Is kept
warm ard the soil slightly moisten-

ct until the plants appear above
the ground.
Plants have peculiar habit Of
turning their heads toward :ne
light and the little seedlings in the
box, as soon as they appear above
ground, will Immediately show
tendency 70 draw their heads to-
ward the window To keep them
from growing crooked, the box
should be turned at least once ep
cry day, so that the plants are
kept growing reasonably straight.
First the plants have their seed
leaves. next one Or two true leaves
are formed. and the plant begins to
make a head, as the gardeners say
BY this time they are beginning to
crowd each other in the box and 1t
Is necessary to secure one or two
additional boxes of the same gen.
eral type. Fill them with soil to the
same depth as the first and trans
plant the little plants. giving them
two or three inches Of space in each
direction. If the plants are started
extremely early, it may be neees-
sary to give them a second shift or
transplanting in order to keep
them strong and stocky for plant
ing in the garden. A few good heal.
thy plants are better than larger
number Of poor and spindling ones.
II does not take many of such
plants as tomato, pepper and egg
plant for setting in the ordinary
garden and for that reason they can
be given plenty of room and allow,
ed to make strong, vigorous
growth.
Extreme care must be taken not
to overwater the plants grown in
the house. Before the house grown
plants are set in the garden they
should be gradually exposed to the

This may be done by placing the
boxes outdoors a portion of the day

One of the fercest contests ever
staged in Congress occurred in the
House last Friday when Rubey of
Missouri declared his district had a
prize winning corn acre of 1877 bush
els. Hastings of Oklahoma challeng-
ed Rubey with 135 bushels to the
acre. Bankhead of Alabama entered
the ring with a 227 bushel acres
yield which Kitchin of North Carolina
broke over with 252 bushels to the
acre only to be overreached by Mann
of Illinois who brazenly confessed to
an acre in the Sucker state produc-
ing 1926 bushels of corn. Now that
we know the limit of congressional
imagination it is up to the old Badger
state that raises real corn, to tell the
country the true record.

Uur weekly Letter
From Washington
From Jamese,A. Frear, NJ. c.


The legislative bill which carries
about $120,000,000 and covers items
from the Presidents $4,000 salary
down to $4,000 item for law books
for the Chief Justice, has been before
the House for over week with pros
poets of several days more before this
200-page budget is completed. Such
bills have the right of way subject to
conference reports and privileged
matters. That is the reason the rail
road conference bill of 100 pages was
put through the House on the same
day reported after FIVE hours dis
cussion. The conferees from both
Houses try and reconcile differences
between bills and often report COM
paratively new bill, as occurred with
the railway conference report. Nc
amendments are thereafter permitted
and the report is accepted or reject
ed or recommitted back for changes.
The railroad bill was passed by both
Houses without. amendment and is
now up to the President.
