prepared by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture)
Perhaps the cheapest and frequent
ly the best way to start forest plan
tation is to collect seed from hard
wood trees and grow seedlings, say
forest specialists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture In Farm
ers Bulletin 1923, Growing and Plant
ing Hardwood Seedlings on the farm,
just published by the department. The
collected seed, says the bulletin, will
be fresh and the seedlings grown
from it should be thoroughly accli-
mated so far as climate is concerned.
Should Be Collected in Autumn.
Seed should not be collected before
they are ripe, and this means for most
kinds Of seed that the work should be
done during autumn, usually after
frost. Collecting may be extended
into the winter for such species as
ash, catalpa, honey locust, sycamore
and others which retain the seed on
the trees until that time. A few varie-
ties Of seed, such as elm, silver maple,
red maple, willow and poplar ripen
during the spring and summer and
should be gathered promptly before
they are scattered.
Middle-aged trees growing in the
open, where they have been permitted
20 develop broad, spreading crowns,
ordinarily produce seed in greater
abundance than trees growing in
dense forest. The fruit of some hard
wood trees requires special treatment
to separate the seed from the fleshy
covering, pod or hull before they are
planted.
The best time to sow seed, either in
the nursery or in the permanent plant
ing site, is soon after it is ripe, but
when this is not possible the seed
must be stored until spring. If this
Is done, the seed must not be allowed
to dry ont excessively, because this
impairs its power to terminate. Seed
should be stored in cold place.
Loamy Soil Preferable.
When the seed are to be planted
good, well-drained, preferably loamy
soil should be selected. Proximity to
the farm dwelling Is desirable, be-
cause rodents are less likely to be
abundant there. Preparation Of the
seed bed should be similar to that o..
getting the soil ready for vegetable
crop. Except on commercial plant.
lngs, where the seed are sometimes
sOwn broadcast, it is best to plant
with drill in rows sufficiently far

apart to permit horse cultivation.
With small or thin seed, such as that
of birch, elm or sycamore, best re-
suits will be obtained by sowing
broadcast rather thickly over the
beds, pressing the seed into the loose
soil with board and covering It very
lightly with soil and light mulch of
leaves or straw. When the seedlings
are ten or more inches in height they
are large enough to be transplanted to
the field. Most Of them reach this
size in one growing season. In dig
ging them care should be taken to in
Jure the roots as little as possible.
Injured portions Of the roots should
be cut Off with a sharp knife. The
seedlings should not be dug until the
time for planting them in their per-
manent location, for exposure Of the
roots to the air for any length Of time
will kill them.

EXTERMlNATING RATS

Work Is Now Being Carried on in

According to reports to the United
States Department of Agriculture,
rat determination work throughout
the country is being carried forward
vigorously under the combined ef-
forts of the county agricultural DEM
onstrators sent out by the states re-
lations service and the rodent control
experts representing the bureau of bio
logical survey.
At Blackstone, Va, the home demon
stration agent and the biological sur
vey representative Joined in a rat
campaign which promised to send
1900 rodents into the rat hereafter.
When the final count of rat tails
was taken it was found that 10000
of the pests had been killed in the
one town.
At Fargo, N. D., the citizens were
annoyed by a heavy infestation of
rats. A bureau representative en-
listed the cooperation of the city COM
mission, the commercial club, the
health department, the boy scouts,
women's clubs. and other organiza-
tions, and conducted a very success
full campaign against the pest. In this
instance the poison, barium carbonate,
was purchased in quantities and used
as destructive agent with excellent
results,

carried into town for you every day?
There are days when you have to make
trip that takes an hour or more of
your time at the busiest season of the
year just to haul your milk to the
creamery, and there are other times
when you'll have load of things that
you want to send. Suppose / buy a
light truck-would you be willing to
pay me enough for hauling your prod
duce to make it worth my while?"
"Yes; we'd be willing to do that,
providing your charges aren't too steep.
How would you regulate the pricesT"
"Pve been consulting a bulletin on
this subject issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Maryland farmers have already put
an idea like this into execution, ac-
cording to the departments represen-
| tatives. They own and operate u
truck on cooperative basis, and the
rate is Is cents per hundredweight for
first-class goods. I believe 1 can haul
your produce with a light truck for
20 cents a hundeed pounds during the
summer months. The cooperative
idea in Maryland is not managed to
secure a profit, but 1 shall have to
make a profit to pay for the time
am taking from my own work"
''How will we manage when we want
things brought out from town?"
Telephone your orders and have
the merchants deliver the goods at
the creamery where can pick them
all up at once and I'll bring them out
to you"
The scheme was adopted and these
farmers found the solution to their
hauling problems.
Where there are only few farmers
and the route is short it is sometimes
possible to organize motor-truck serv-
ice in this way, if a farmer can be
found who is willing to undertake the
work. In most cases, however, the
volume of business increases so rap
idly that it cannot be handled by one
truck or one man, and when this stage
is reached a cooperative motor-truck
association is the best solution.
Forming an Association.
Such an association can be organized
as a regular stock company. Bulletin
541, United States Department of Ag
riculture, which may be had on re-
quest, contains information regarding
the bylaws under which a cooper
ative association should be organized
and farmers bulletin 1892 tells how the
motor-truck route ought to be oper
ated, how prices are fixed, and the
running expenses met.
In the hands of the scrupulous in
dividual, or as a cooperative enter
prise, the motor-truck route will Offer
quick, economical transportation L
those farmers who must reach the mar
ket every day or two with small load:
of milk or farm produce and whose
business does not warrant them il
purchasing a truck solely for theil
own use.

TREATMENT FOR LlMBERNECK
AiIment Is Generally Associated With
Indigestion or Eating Spoiled
Grain or Meat.

The condition known as limberneck
in chickens is in reality not a dis
ease, but a symptom of several dis
eases which are characterized by
paralysis of the muscles of the neck,
making it impossible for the bird to
raise its head from the ground. This
condition, the bureau of animal in.
dustry of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture says, is due to
the absorption Of poisons from the in
testines, which act upon the nervous
system and cause paralysis.
Limberneck is generally associated
with indigestion or the eating of moldy
grain or putrid meat or with intestinal
worms. The best treatment is to give
a full dose of purgative medicine
that is, so to 60 grains of EPSON salt
or three or four teaspoons of castor
OIL for a grown fowl. Often the birds
will be cured within "a hours. In
case they are not better within three
or days it is not advisable to keep
them.

I'D almost be money ahead if l
dumped this milk into the brook this
morning instead of carrying it to the
creamery. With the best horse in the
barn it's a two-hour job to carry 300
pounds of milk three miles, and it has
to be done every day. Those straw
berries simply must be picked this
forenoon, too. Rain last night and
sunshine today; all the berries not in
the cooling room by noon will be
spoiled"
This farmer had encountered one of
the periods in his farm work when the
proprietor's presence is desperately
needed in two places at the same time.
Turning to save profit on his dairy,
he was likely to lose one on his straw
berry crop; if he saved the berries he
lost the milk, for milk and strawber-
ries wait for no man.

"Well, I've got the milk ready to go,
but haven't picked the berries. Here
goes for the milk"
Two minutes later he guided old
Jim and the blackboard around the
maple on the corner and urged the
horse into his best gait when they
reached the main road. Every minute
was valuable this morning. A half
mile from home a forewheel began to
give off slight, complaining sounds.
"a dry axle" groaned the farmer
"Tll have to stop at Yelp's and grease
the wheels"
When he reached Yelp's farm two
more of the buckboard's wheels were
squealing wildly.
"Can 1 borrow your wagon wrench,
jack, and some axle grease?" he called
catching sight Of his neighbor, oddly
muffled in gauze and gloves under q
tree in the orchard.
Sure! Help yourself" came the
hearty reply. I'D find the things fol
you myself, but I'm so busy l CAM
spare a minute. I'm trying to hive
some of my bees that swarmed this
morning, and I've got dozen crates Of
lettuce all packed that must go on the
noon train"
