black walnut in this country. This
| figure is approximate only, and it is
well to remember that only so per
cent of it is Available to commerce.
The remaining so per cent is growing
in inaccessible spots, or held by
owners who refuse to sell.
Black walnut is valuable, it is easy
to secure a stand, and it makes Il
fairly rapid growth. There is always
a demand for it and, in war time, an
exceptional demand at high prices.
Under these circumstances ii would
seem that large commercial groves
would be the common thing, but the
fact that this tree requires the use
of good agricultural soil handicaps
commercial production. Before the
war the annual cut of black walnut
ran between 40 and so million feet
a year, but the inroads made upon
the groves during the hostilties have
considerably reduced the supply now

Farming Risks Greatest In The Plains
States.

Risks in the production of three
great staple crops-corn, wheat, and
oats-are greatest in the Plains
States extending from Texas to North
Dakota. This general fact is estab-
lished by the average deviation of the
yield per acre from the average yield,
computed by the Bureau of Crop Es-
Inmates, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, for these three crops for each
State from the records of so years.
On the other hand, the North At
lantic and the Western States are re-
gions of comparatively low risk, or
deviation of yield per acre from the
average, for wheat and oats, and the
entire Atlantic coast and the West
for corn.
The great corn belt with its enor-
nous production and surplus above
local consumption, is after all, promi-
nently subject to risks of weather. in
sects, and disease in the production
of crops. and, while it would be going
too far to say of this region as a
whole that the results of it's agricul-
ture are either "a feast or a famine"
yet there is tendency in this direc-
tion as tn area covered by the average
becomes more restricted to county,
and individual farm.

The Forest Service, United States
Department of Agriculture, is au-
thority for the statement that the
squirrel, through his habit of bury
ing nuts, has been the most important
agent in the reproduction of the black
walnut groves. The timber from the
groves planted years ago by the
squirrels satisfied an important need
during the war, when walnut was
used to make gunstocks and airplane
propellers. Substitute woods for gun
stocks have been tried by many
manufacturers, but none has been
found that proved as suitable for this
purpose as the black walnut.
The fence-rail forester seems to
have the needs of the black walnut
in his mind when he goes about his
work. AS a sappling this species can

Inspect Stored Wool Frequently For
Moths.

At this season of the year wool
held in storage should be carefully
inspected at frequent intervals for
moths, specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture say. If
there are no evidences of moth in
jury it is not likely that the wool
will become infested enough to cause
injury for several months at least.
If no damage is noted by July or
August, the wool can be carried ov-
er winter without injury. unless stor-
ed close to other infested commodi-
ties.
Although in the Southern States
wool is often held for two years with
out the slightest injury from moths,

Grain wastd in Careless Thrashing

Grain Wastd i'm Careless ThraShing
Hundreds of thousands of bushels
of grain are lost to consumption each
year on American farms because OF
improper adjustment and lack of eff
ficiency in the operation of thrashing
machines. The United States De-
partment of Agriculture has given
considerable attention to this loss
with a view to ascertaining how far
improved methods can be economical
ly introduced to adjust waste. 1t is
true, experts point ouj, that some
times the time and labor involved in
checking a small loss is worth more
than the saving. Nevertheless, there
are many leaks on almost every
thrashing job which might easily be
stopped if the farmer or machine OPP
orator would spend a few hours in
the study of the problem and a few
dollars in replacing worn and damag-
ed parts.
Feeding the grain into the machine
and other small items go to make
up a total that may mean gain or
loss. Much grain is wasted by fail
ure to clean up at the end of the set
ting. The United States Department
of Agriculture has issued Farmers

The county agent has to serve in
all sorts of capacities. The agent in
Wilson County, Tex, reports an
emergency case where he was called
in to render first-aid service. A fine
span of mules had run away with
a scraper and were badly cut up. AL
tho no bones were broken the mules
had received several bad cuts about
the hind legs and one main tendon
was badly lacerated. The wounds
were disinfected and dressed, and in
structions given for their further
treatment. 1t is in small ways like
this that the county agent convinces
the farmer that he is there to serve
and that he really knows his job.

Younghusband Gets Permit to
Scale Mount Everest, "Roof

No European Has Ever Approached

New York.-Mount Everest, the
Hlmnlayan peak called "the roof of
the world" which Sir Francis Young
husband, the British soldler-explorer,
will attempt to climb next summer,
has never yet been scaled by man.
Towering above the frontiers of the
hitherto forbidden land of Tibet and
the remote province of Nepal, India,
another land Of mystery, the difficult
ties in even approaching Mount Ever
est have been sufficient to battle ex-
plorers.
The worlds highest peak lies In
Tibet, north of the British Indian Dor
der, yet, so far as known, no Euro
pean has ever approached nearer than
60 miles from its base and few trav-
elers have ever seen its upper slopes.
Explorer Gets Permit
The attempts which have been made
to ascend some of Mount Everest's
sister peaks Of the Hlmalayas usually
have been made though Nepal, be-
cause access to them through Tibet
was not open. The approach to Mount
Everest through Tibet is said to be
more accessible and presents greater
prospects Of success than from the
Nepal side.

nOunced that the Tibetan government
had granted him permission to at
tempt the ascent of the mountain by
the Tibetan route. 1t was Sir Fran
els, who as colonel commanding a
British mission to the forbidden city
Of Lhasa in 1902, opened Tibet to
civilization.
