PLANT NOW INSTEAD OF
WAITING FOR SPRING

There are many plants which may be
set out to better advantage in the fall
than IN the spring. Any time after the
first fall frosts, when growth above
ground comes to q stands.ill. will do Tor
transplantiug.
This is especially true OF ornamental
shrubs and hardy flowers for the garden
All sorts of hardy perennials such as
make up the Old fashioned hardy border
which is now new fashioned again
may be set out from now on until the
ground begins to freeze. Shrubs and
most decidious trees can be planted is
long as the ground is not frozen and
lunpy when the planting is being done.
The cold will not hurt the plants; it is a
matter of having plenty of finely pulver-
lied, mellow soil TO pack in tight around
the newly set roots
There are many advantages in planting
in the fall instead Of waiting for spring.
The advantage appealing most to the
amateur, perhaps, is the time gained. On
many early Towering things this amounts
to a whole season
You know how you waited for the first
i flower on q newly set out plant or shrub.
1t may be but few blossoms but we
waited and waited more eagefly for that
than for the wealth of bloom on some
thing We already have. Very early flow
er,ng thin. . such as Forsythia, or Golden
| Bell, and the Judas tree, and such hardy
| plants IS moss pink (phlox subulata)
| and candy tuft, and bleeding heart. #
| planted now, viii give some bloom aimos
| before the snow is gone next spring.
| Another big advantage OF fall plant:
| IS that you have more time to do it now
! than you will next April or May. Wit
! most Of US there's \ slack time between
| the first frosts and the setting in Of win.
| ter, when work of this kind can be don,
| more conveniently than at any other tim,
Of the year. Root growth continues unit
| long after freezing weather.
Fortunately, this just fits in with ma
lures scheme Of things. For wher
growth above ground stops IN the faI'
the roots OF most shrubs and hard,
iplants still remain active. The result
lis that plants set ont now, will TAX
hold in their new positions, and con
ttinue to make root growth until lon;
latter the surface Of the ground is frozen
The result is, that next spring plant
which have been set out this fall, wi
lstart in growing with the very frs
sign of warm weather. Not on'y wi
tthey bloom, where snring-set plant
might not, but they will make a vigol
Gus growth early in the season. and h
In much better shape to withstand n
hot dry weather Of midsummer tina
are plants set out In spring.
In short. Il you are thinking OF NAL
! ing your place more attractive and hons
| like by setting out hardy flowers
shrubs, there Is everything to gain ar
nothing to lose by doing II now instes
iof waiting until next spring.

MAKE MUCH USE OF sILAGE
1t has not been many years since corn
sflage was considered merely as ! feed
suitable for dairy cows. but it has. rap
idly attained a wide use among beef pro-
ducers in the corn belt. Now all feeding
that is not done on pasture may be divid-
ed into two ciaSseS-that In which silage
is fed and that in VIII ch II is not fed As
a whole the two classes are. now about
equally divided but in some states the
difference IL very marked. Surveys by
the United States department Of agrieui-
ture covering the last two winters show
ed that So per cent. of 1856 cattle fed in
indiana received silage in their rations.
81 pc rcant. Of 1880 in Illinois. so per
cent. Of 290 In Iowa. s per cent. o,
6,12s in Nebraska. and so per cent. of
1861 in MISSOURI.
Where si1age is usF It supplies most
of the roughage Nearly all the silagc is
made from corn, probably 80 per cent of
the total. Sorghum. -sunfiowers and le-
gumes are sometimes used in localities on
the extreme edge of the corn belt. such
as western Kansas and Nebraska and
western and northern South Dakota A
| greater use of silase depends largely
upon the supply and value OF other
roughage.
The main facts about the use Of sllage
! in fattening cattle are thus summarizes
| by the department: The greater the pro-
| portion of silage to corn, the cheaper the
| gains. The greater the quantity OF corn
| the less silage consumed. Stage viii not
| fatten cattle unless accompanied By con-
| centrates. In silaEe most Of the corn
| STALK is used. Cattle fed on silage will
| eat more straw or slower. If purchased
| protein feeds are added to the feed, the
! resultant manure is richer. Sllage-fed
| catt.a do not finish quite as well as those
1 ct X r Fl
| silage produces a better finished ANNA
| that usually brings - better price. and il
also results in better gains on hogs that
| follow the cattle. Silage-fed cattle shrink
more than those fattened without silage
| The price OF corn and the value Of othe,
| concentrates Should be a guide as to tht
| limit OF corn in a silage ration.

from his fourth visit to the orr

today to hear X. Kumasaki, Jap
anese consul general in New York,
talk about the relations of Japan
and America.
Mr.. Bigelow praised the Japan
csc for their culture, their cleanli-

intercourse, and their public and
private honesty.

Of New York in any week." he
said, than in a whole year in ia

Consul General Kumasaki ex-
planned that when Commodore
Perry arrived in Japan in 1853,
the country had gone through 237
years of uninterrupted peace. He
deplored the notion that the Jap
anese are a war-like nation and
characterized as absurd the re-
ports that spring up from time to
time that Japan is trying to get a
foothold in Lower California or
smuggle into the Pacific states her
reserve soldiers, disguised as la
borers.

are problems that must be solved
