AVA But 1t will neither grow nor
leave one of its own accord,
Many persons have had these facts
brought home to them with jolt.
Unfortunately, however, they did not
recognize the value of what they OBJ
tanned when 1t came in fast.
Harsh lessons are usually well
learned. The man who foolish1y trusts
a rotten plank to carry him across a
whirling stream and then pays for
his folly by stiff fight for life, al
ways is more cautious when he must
walk another plank to follow his
pathway on the other side of a
stream.
The same logic may justly be ap-
piled to every walk Of life.t If one
spends all he earns, the money ma.
turally goes; but, If he is wise and
saves something, what he saves is
certain to grow If properly invested.
And it is surprising how fast 1t will

Out of the struggles and discourage

will eventually rise to a higher plane
than it has occupied for several years.
And, though many may have foOlishly
spent all they earned when prosperity
was with them and since have been
finding 1t difficult to make both ends
meet, when the tide turns back to
normal, greater value will be placed
ION incomes, more caution will be ex-
Iercised in spending, more m@ey will

there will be wider appreciation of

only half of the stand in the field if
sown in the usual amounts. The
wheat tested in the laboratory has
shown from So per cent to 70 per
cent termination. The highest test
so far being 70 per cent and the low
est 50 per cent. The average of all
is about go per cent where it should
be better than 80 per cent.
The damp conditions at harvest
time and Immediately following prob
ably had something to do with this
poor terminating wheat. Several
farmers have brought in, or sent to
the laboratory, wheat which looked
perfectly good and which they
thought would be good for seed, but
which has in some instances given
test of only So per cent. The appear
ance of the seed does not tell what it
will do in the way of growing. One
farmer after sending two samples to
the laboratory for termination plant
ed some OF the same lot in earth at
home and found that only about SO
per cent of the seeds would grow in
this manner, which was practically
the same percentage reached in the
laboratory test. Wheat this season
that looks perfectly good when put
into the terminating chambers will
mold rapidly and a large amount of
that which terminates gives a short
weak sprout. Good wheat should
show very little if any mold at the
end of the test and should have
strong, vigorous sprouts.
The results of the tests made thus
far in the laboratory indicate that if
the farmers of the State SOW home
grown wheat this fall, without first
being sure that it is good in quality
there will be a short wheat crop in
Delaware next spring.
The State Laboratory is equipped tt
give prompt free tests to all samples
received and will be able to mail E
report to the sender five days after
; receipt of the sample at the labora
tory. All samples should be address
ed to State Laborator, Dover, Della
ware, and should bear the name ant
address of the sender on the package

Lime Best for Garden Soils

In stressing the need of replacing
lime removed from soils by acids and
plants, DR.. L. Van Slyke, chemist of
the New York experiment station,
writing in the American Agriculturist
recommends:
"The application of ground lime
stone or Stacked burnt lime Quick
line) once in four or five years, using
about 1000 pounds per acre of ground
limestone or 1000 pounds of Stacked
quicklime. The use of wood ashes has
the same demonstrating effect. Lime
compounds and ashes also tighten
heavy Soils"
The cause of clover failures is not
in the "sign" of the distant moon, but
in the soil under our feet-sour con-
ditions and low vitality in all those
natural forces that make for fertility.

TIMELY REMINDERS

Hessian Fly-Late planting may
save your wheat crop from this pests |
raVages. See your county agent
about the best planting dates.
White Grubs-Sod fields to be
planted to corn and potatoes should
be fall plowed to destroy grubs or
pupae in the soil. If practicable, fol-
low old sod with clover, buckwheat,
or some small grain, as these are less
injurious than the larger grains.
Seed Corn Storage-Proper condi-
tons for the storage of seed corn are
good ventilation, protection from rain
or snow, from rats and mice, and from
extremes of temperature. Repair the
openings made by rats last year, and
arrange for free circulation of air
around each ear.
Weed Strawberries-The strawber-
ry bed is now beginning to fill up with
plants. When rows are filled with
plants to 6 inches apart each way,
all other runners should be considered
as weeds and not allowed to root.
Penn State Tomato--The three va
rieties of tomatoes introduced by
Pennsylvania State College this year,
namely, Penn State Earliana, Match
UNI, and Nittany, are doing all that
was claimed for them. A consider
able quantity of seed is being saved
this year to be sold to the public.

Why Winter Wheat Is
Valuable in Rotation

Corn, oats Cor barley, winter
wheat, clover! Wherever this rotation
is practicable for each crop and for
it's place in the rotation. The plan
is scientifically correct and may be
made the foundation of profitable
agriculture through generations
Corn usual ymakes a first-class
crop on good clover sod.
Probably there is no better seed bed
for oats than good corn land. On
field-plowed corn land of about med
ium fertility, oats usually yield excel
lently both as to quantity and quality.
The rotation followed up to this
point prepares the land perfectly for
winter wheat and the last crop in the
rotation, clover rarely fails when
seeded with the wheat. Clover is
really the key crop. When it sue
ceeds the other crops are almost bound
to do well. Thus the wheat crop is
valuable to the entire rotation be-
cause of its direct bearing upon the
clover crop.
1t has been demonstrated repeatedly
that in order to obtain the fullest
benefit from fertilizers, correct and
suitable rotation is necessary. 1t is
common experience that on good soil,
it may be advisable to save some
some manure, if possible, for the
wheat, high-analysis fertilizer is
profitable not alone because of the in
creased yields of wheat, but also be-
cause of its excellent residual effect
on the following clover crop.

Interesting Features
of Soil Reaction

An extensive investigation of the
hydrogenion concentration of different
soils and it's modification when the
soil is treated with different neutral
and basic salts was conducted by H.
G. Knight and reported in the Jour-
nal of Industrial and Engineering
Chemistery, 1880, No. 5, pages 457
and AGA &c. S. R., Vol. 43, No. 7,
page 613).
Acid Soils Haze Reserve Acidty
A large number of types of soils
We're employed. That an acid soil re-
acts freely with the base of a salt
solution is indicated by the fact that
when an acid soil is so treated the
hydrogenion- concentration reaches a
maximum almost Immediately, but
gradually decreases. This is especially
marked if the neutral salt solution
contains free bases. This process of
absorption or chemical union is con-
tinuous for quite time, That there
is definite chemical reaction of the
base with the soil is indicated by the
formation of insoluble products, which
is shown by the decrease in the cleo
trio conductivity of the solution.
From this study it appears that cal
cium inclines to form less soluable
products than does potassium, al
though calcium and potassium hy-
droxide have approximately equiva-
lent neutralizing powers. 1t is stated
that an acid soil shows a high re-
serve acidity. The greatest difference
appears in soils rich in organic mat
ter. The apparent lime requirement
OF soil was found to be dependent
somewhat upon the indicator en-
ployed.

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION

Eight of these same high schools

continued as for the previous year.
The department of vocational agrt-
cultural education is in the school or
agriculture and on cor-ordinate
basis with the department of horti-
culture, agronomy, and darby hus-
bandry. Supervised teaching is done
in the vocational department of the
local high school, and observation is
done in vocational departments with

training work is very encouraging
This year the Department graduated
four men who will teach in Delaware
during the coming year.

DISINFECTANT WHITEWASH

A disinfectant whitewash, recon-
mended by the Iowa agricultural ex-
perimental station, combines the gen.
eral utility of ordinary whitewash
with the disinfectant properties of
stock dip. By its use, it is asserted,
applications of stock dip can be sup
planted. For interior use in poultry
and hog houses, barn easements and
stables it proves especially suitable.
The formula is compounded from
the following ingredients:
l Hydrated lime, pecks ........ III
2 Salt, pounds ................ 2
3 Commercial lime sulphur, gal
loNS .......'' ............
a Water, gallons 40
Equivalent amounts for a small
quantity of the above whitewash are
approximately as follows:
l Hydrated lime, heaping quart.
2 Salt, tablespoonful .......... 3
3 Commercial lime-sulphur, qts.. IL
4 Water, gallons ..............4
Alum added to a lime whitewash
lends adhesiveness. An ounce to the
gallon is sufficient. A pound of cheap
bar soap dissolved in gallon of boil
ing water and added to about five gal
Ions of thick whitewash will give it a
gloss like oil paint.
Two applications should be made
each year, one each in the fall and
spring. To insure penetration in
cracks and crevices, the operation is
preferably done with a high-pressure
spray pump.

This investigation illustrates the

indicates the need of arriving at some

Home Economies Education

A full-time supervisor of home
economics was employed by the State
Board. She was able to visit each
vocational school on an average of
four times and to hold monthly con-
ferences with the teachers of the
State. Twenty-three vocational all
day departments with an enrolment
of 518 pupils were approved for
Federal aid during the year. An
evening class, with an enrolment of
IA was conducted for women at
Dover during the winter months.
The University of Delaware enroll
ed eighteen in the Teacher Training
courses. Of this number two were
graduated in June and will remain in
the State to teach. A Practice House
is maintained at the Women's Col.
lege offering students preparing tt
teach home economics wonderful op
portunities along home management
lines.
