than has heretofore been evident.
The winter care of spray machinery
is very important. Good orchard
lists know that as soon as the last
spraying is finished in the summer
the spray machinery should be thor
oughly cleaned out with enough clear
water run through to clean thor
oughly all hose, spray rods, nozzles
and pumps. All drain plugs of en-
CINE cylinders, raditors, etc., should
be removed to allow complete water
drainage to prevent freezing.
The winter time is good time to
overhaul the pump. 1t should be re-
packed, frightened and thoroughly
oiled so that no delay will be caused
by sticking valves or pistons when
it is necessary to start spraying again
Hoops around the spray tank should
be frightened up well and the inside
of the tank should be painted to pre-
vent drying.
The urgent necessity of spraying
which sometimes develops requires
that the spray machinery be kept in
the best of order il crop values are
not to be decreased.
POWER FARMING THE
JOY OF HER LIFE
Operating an $40 acre farm of
which 500 acres are under cultivation
may be VANISHED job and too big
for the average man, but Mrs. Sidney
Sharpe of Portum, Okla, finds in
the task the real joy of her life.
81 started in small way but now
/ have 500 acres under cultivation"
said Mrs. Sharpe; II operate three
tractors, have my own threshing out
fit which saves me thousands of
dollars year in threshing bills, and
have in general what the neighbors
call first class farm"
Besides the equipment just men
toned, Mrs. Sharpe has a large motor
truck, an dali the other equipment
on the ranch in modern. With the
improved equipment she is able to
pillow at the right time and in
threshing season to get the crop out
Of the way at the proper moment.
This year she finished threshing the
wheat and oats just before the sum-
mer rains began.

question in their minds but what me-
chanical power may be used econom-
ically and effectively in fruit produc-
ton on small or larger scale.
Some of the advantages claimed
for the tractor in the orchard are as
follows:
1t will get closer to the trees with
out injury.
It will not bite the end of the limbs
or knock off the fruit.
1t will turn in a short radius
1t can be guided with exactness.
It will pull heavier tools and cut
deeper.
1t will readily pull a subsoiler to
break the plowpan caused by shallaw
tillage or the hardpan laid down by
nature.
It will get over the ground faster,
thus conserving time and labor.
It can be worked longer hours and
in emergencies can be used day and
night.
Tractors are widely used in orchard
Operations for blowing, disking and
operating spike tooth and chisel har-
rows, in preparing the seed bed for
the cover deep, in drilling or broad
casting the seed, and in turning under
the cover crop. 1t is also used in
subsoiling, in spraying and in pull
ing out and saving up old trees.
When irrigation time approaches, the
machine is used II : furrowing and
checking.
WINTER CARE OF
SPRAY MACHINERY
The formation of spraying rings
and the development of power

WISCONSIN GAINS IN TRACTORS
BY George E Fuller

Between May, 1920, and May, 1921,
Wisconsin farmers added about
5000 new tractors to Their farmers,
according to the assessors figures,
the compilation of which has just
been completed. Last May there
were 14,8OO tractors on farms, and
othis may be safely added another
five hundred anyhow by this time.
Dodge county leads the list with
752 tractors. Dane county comes
next. with 625. About SO counties
have over 100 tractors a piece.
Mequon Township in Ozaukee
county leads the tractor owning town
ships with SO machines.
HORSE DISCARDED
IN LOGGING CAMPS
The day of the horse is passing in
the logging camps. The cost re-
cords of the motor vehicles on Sc
cords of theh motor vehicles in Sc
veraI recent, carefully checked tests
showed that the use of power equip
ment cuts the cost of logging as high
as 20 per cent.
These figures were presented by
practical woodsmen during the re-
cent convention of the woodlands sec
ton of the American Paper and Pulp
Association, who have been forced to
substitute power operations for an
imal hauling because of the far great
er economy of the former.
