NUT TREES GOOD FOR SHADE
japanese Walnut Is Especially APP
propriate for Farm and Door,
Yard Planting.

The japanese walnut offers possibli-
ties for landowners who are seeking
to plant nut trees for shade or other
purposes; say specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture. 1t
is nearly as hardy as the black walnut
and is by no means uncommon in
northern and eastern states, where
it is especially appropriate for farm
and door-yard planting. For the
present Seeding trees will have to be
relied upon almost entirely, as very
few budded or grated trees are avail
able
This nut has been confused with the
Persian or so-called English walnut,
although the two are quite unlike. The
japanese is a dwarfish species, with
dull-green rough leaflets, often as many
as 10 or II to the leaf, and bears nuts
In racemes Of a dozen or more.
The shells are thinner than those of
the black walnut, but thicker than
those Of the better Persian walnuts.
The flavor Of the kernels is much like
that Of the American butternut.

HOW TO PATCH GRAVEL ROAD
Work Should Always Be Done When
Road Is Wet, Preferably When
Water Is Standing in Ruts.

Patching is usually neglected or
done in such a way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That is the invariable result
Of filling a rut too full. This work
should always he done when the road
is wet, preferably when the water is
still standing in every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the workmen
can just see where TO place the new
gravel and about how much is neededs
Unless the rut is a very large one,
it Is always best TO shovel the gravel
from the wagon into it, rather than to
raise a sideboard and attempt to dump
part OF the load. Patching done in
the proper manner when the road is
wet, followed by a road drag, will
maintain an Old gravel road surface
as good MS new until It is so badly
worn that an entirely new surface is
required. The gravel should never be
poorer than that forming the surface
layer Of the old road, and especially
should contain a little, but not an ex-
cess of clay.

CONTROL OF WHEAT DISEASE
Farmers Bulletin 1918 Tells Of Flag
Smut Discovered in Illinois
County in 1919.

Methods for controlling flag smut
destructive disease Of wheat, are
given in Farmers Bulletin 1913, Flag
Smut Of Wheat and Its Control, is
sued for free distribution by the Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture.
The disease was discovered in 1919
near Granite City, Madison county,
H., and in 1920 was found in III
fields confined to A square miles.
Black stripes running lengthwise in
the leaves and leaf sheaths are typical
of flag smut Diseased plants are
stunted and rarely head. The disease
is spread by spores carried on the
seed, and by spores left in the field
on infected plant material or on the
ground, where they may be scattered
in various ways, and infect wheat
seedlings in the fall.
Treat with formaldehyde the in
tested grain as 1t comes from the
thrasher. Burn infested straw. Sow
disease-free seed on nOninfested land.
Treat with copper sulphate and lime
the seed wheat TO be sown In the In
tested area. Grow resistant varieties.

Senate Irreooneilahles viii Try To
Compel Return Of Soldiers If Pres
ldent Decides Otherswise-AII
Rights Are Reserved.

Washington.-The question Of with.
drawal of the American troops from
the occupation Of German territory on
the Rhine bids fair to become an i'm
portant issue, now that peace with
Germany has been restored. unless
President Harding should act immed-
lately to bring the forces home.
Some administration officials are
of the opinion that the presidents
next step after issuing the peace
proclamation will be an order with.
drawing the American troops from
Europe. There are. however. some
extremely influential members of the
cabinet who will counsel the presi.
dent to leave the Army of Occupation
on the Rhine pending the conclusion
Of negotiations between America and
Germany and America and the allies
on questions arising from the war.
II the president does not signify his
intention of Withdrawing the troops
soon, a resolution viii be introouced
in the Senate, probably by Senator
johnson Of California, instructine the
secretary Of war to order the forces
home.
This is the move determined upon
by the Senate irreconcilablles.
They hold that Congress may con.
stitutionally instruct the secretary OF
war, though not the president, and
they have considered the contingency
of the president directing the seore-
tary Of war to ignore the instructions
Of Congress, thus precipitating a
clash between the executive and legis-
lative branches Of the government. 1t
is more likely, however, that IL the
president desires to retain the troops
in Europe the administration leaders
would block passage of a withdrawal
resolution by Congress.
Under the terms OF the peace reso-
luton all rights required by the
United States under the arnsistice and
the Versailles treaty are reserved and
one Of these rights is the occigation
of German rerf.ezS--oU-Amet< csr
troops on the Rhine and tie only
question is how long it is to the Nm
terest of the United States to kdp
them there.
The president has declared the
United States interested in the Get
man indemnity settlement and It is
ending the paymnt of the reparations
and fulfllment of other treaty terms
I that allied troops are to remain on
the Rhine for Is years. Coblenz,
/ where the American troops are sta
/ toned, is to be evacuated in 10 years
il the treaty terms are fulfilled by
Germany.

GROWERS STUDY CONDITIONS
Sales Concluded on Satisfactory Basis
and Useful Experience OBJ
tained In Market

Some cabbage growers accompanied
their car-lot shipments to market the
past season in order to secure first
hand knowledge of shipping conditions
and marketing practices. As a result,
not only were sales made on a fairly
satisfactory basis from the standpoint
Of the producer, but the growers OBJ
taiued considerable useful experience
through observing the handling Of the
cabbage in the markets. They studied
conditions affecting shipments en-
route and became better acquainted
with the demands Of the large whole
sale markets. The information and
experience obtained were of particu-
lar value to growers located in sec
tions where cabbage had not been
grown commercially in previous years.
The plan was employed by growers
having two or more cars ready for
shipment at one time, and is a detail

prepared by the United States Depart

There is nothing so good as poisoned
bran for taking the hop out of
grasshopper and there is no better
way Of buying and distributing the
bran than through a community or
ganizauon, specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture
find. In the areas where the grass
hoppers come down on the farm crops
like all the plaques of Egypt there
should be grasshOpper-fighting organ
izations, just as there are tire-fighting
units in every city. Fighting grass
hopper invasion without the help Of
the nelghbors is like trying to put out
a fire in a powder factory with one
bucket Of water.
In the Pacific states the vast, un-
cultivated areas Of mountains, foot
hills, and grasslands afford ideal
breeding grounds for at least eight
common species Of grasshopper. I'm
disturbed, the pests can mass their
forces in the spring and be ready for
d descent upon the alfalfa fields and
cultivated crops Of the farmer when
weather conditions permit There
seems to be little hope Of destroying
the grasshOppers in these isolated
breeding areas and for that reason
specialists Of the bureau Of entomology,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, maintain that it will be many
years before the grasshopper menace
disappears from the West But, while
the eight plaques cannot be eXter-
minated at their source, they can be
met with a systematic, well-directed
barrage Of poisoned bait, fire, and
other weapons for control when they
attempt to invade the cultivated
fields.
