This extract from Il statement made
by former farm tenant employee,
now farm owner, reviews a relation
ship between owner and tenant that a
great many persons on both sides of
the farm-landlord situation may well
envy. There Is possibly no subject
connected with the business of farm
ing which leads to as many misunder-
standings, disSatisfncticns and mutual
losses as the management of a farm by
nonowner. Somebody has said that
nothing short Of application of the
golden rule would ever bring about sat
isfactory arrangements between the
owner and occupant Of a farm. and
yet, in this case, there was nothing
eleemosynary In the arrangement.
Tested by Fifteen Years Trial.
The man who made the statement
quoted above was for a number of
years the manager Of one Of two ordi-
nary-siZed hog farms owned by man
in Illinois, and the plan under which
he was engaged as farm manager has
been followed by the owner with al
most unfailing success for more than
fifteen years. Briefly, the plan was
nothing more or less than a straight
annual salary which included tenant
house and the usual garden and poul-
try perquisites, and, as a bonus,
share Of the net profits.
The profit-sharing plan has served to
stimulate the efforts of the employee
and has greatly lessened the supervl-
sion necessary on the part of the
owner. BY the use Of the telephone
and occasional visits he is able to keep
in touch with the farm problems and
to cooperate effectively with the man
ager. Since the owner was farming
himself it was important that the man.
agement Of his other two farms take
as little of his time as possible. Thus
far the managers have been selected
from the men employed on the home
farm, which serves as training
school.
How Net Income Is Determined.
The managers are given a regular
monthly wage and bonus consisting
Of one-third Of the net farm income.
In determining the net income 5 per

A thrifty tomato plant left to itself
will spread over space from to 6
feet in diameter and will produce a
peck or more of tomatoes. If staked
and pruned 1t will yield about the
same quantity of fruit the tomatoes
VIII be larger, cleaner, better favored,
and superior in every respect, and
enough space can be conserved to ac-
commodate five other plants cared for
in a similar manner, say garden spe-
cialistS of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture The staked and
pruned plants are easily sprayed. and
will continue to produce fruit later in
the fall than plants which are allowed
TO spread naturally. AS rule, also.
the pruned tomatoes will mature ear
lier. On the scale on which tomatoes
are grown in the home garden, stalk
ing and pruning require little trouble,
and will fully repay the effort
When the plants begin making a
vigorous growth, shoots will appear In
the little pockets where each leaf Joins
the stem. Later the blossoms appear
on the opposite side of the stem In
pruning the plant, remove all these
side shoots and those around the base
of the plant, being careful not to dis
turb the blossom clusters The shoots
sometimes called suckers, should be
pinehed off shortly after they appear.
The mann stem can be carried to the
full height of the stake, then allowed
TO hang over. BY this time six or sew
en- blossom clusters. on which the
fruit is developing, should be set on
the stem.

CONTROL OF BLISTER MITE
Very Thorough Spraying, Covering
Every Part of Tree, Is Recon-
mended as Satisfactory.

Early spraying will control the
blister mite on apple trees. The trees
should be prayed when the trees are
dormant or when the leaf buds are
swelling with lime sulphur spray In
about the proportion of one gallon of
the concentrated lime sulphur to nine
gallons Of water The spraying must
be very thoroughly done covering

Wood ashes and manure should not
be applied to the soil at the same

the manure combine with chemicals Of
the ashes and form compounds that
are of no benefit to the soil. Both
ashes and manure are good ferti'-

in the room was of such snnguinary
nature and of such long duration that

also to connect him with the murder of
