"AS YOU LIKE IT."

Old Shakespeare said he knew a
bank Thereon the wild thyme grew;
wonder if a savings bank was what he
had in view? The poet knew a lot of
things peculiar to his tribe. but he
never knew the landlord that held
him up for rents, nor saw a common
nickel show that charged him twenty
cents; he never paid dollar for a
tive-cent jitney ride, nor lived be-
meath a franchise that touched
him till he died. If he had paid a Ii
cense tax on every trick he turned,
and carried fire insurance on stuff
that never burned,-in short, if they
had taxed him from his boot-heels to
his hair, and stuck him for the limit
on every thing but air,-he might
have written dramas that immortaliz-
ed his dust. but I'd hate to read the

COVER CROPS MAKE
BETTER FRUIT.
Orchards in Alfalfa Better Than
Where Clean Cultivated.

That cover crop for the orchard
l. much better than clean cultivation.
Is demonstrated in the Yakima Valley
iii orchard practices followed at
Grandview, Sunnyside, Fruitvale and
Selah. Two of these demonstrations
are very striking in the results. as
serts f. G. Wood. extension horticul-
turist of the State College The or
chard belonging y Mr.. Christorfson
at GrandVieW and l.. l.. Hearn at Sun
nyside have been in alfalfa for a num-
bel of years and the alfalfa left on
and disced into the soil with either
tall or spring discing.
Mr.. o. w. Melton's orchard at
fruitvale is the olCest and shows the
best results. The trees are sixteen
years old and produced 900 boxes TO
the acre in 1919, 800 in 1920 and he
estimates crop of nearly a thousand
boxes for this year Not only does
Mr.. Melton receive good results from
the alfalfa but he states that he can
make the same amount of irrigation
water produce better results in tree
growth and production by using a
cover crop of alfalfa, than using clean
cultivation.
Another proof of the value of cover
crops is given in the orchard of j.
Dollenbacher at Selah, where the or
chard was blocked off and treated diff
ferently in each block Contrasting
the part of the orchard which has
been in alfalfa for six years, with that
in clean cultivation, the cover crop
block shows a fine condition in tree
growth, vigor and crop production, as
against light growth, light colored TO-
liage and small fruit.
From these actual practices, the
time will have to come" says Mr..
Wood, "when the cover crop will be
used throughout many of the fruit
growing sections of the state"
